Mortal: Supreme Being of the Ghost Path

He had an extremely audacious idea in his mind!

That treasure, which I had just acquired and hadn't yet had time to study carefully, possessed the miraculous power of "yin-yang transformation."

If it is possible to change the medicinal properties of a spiritual herb from extreme yang to extreme yin, is it also possible to reverse the original attributes of living things?

The Soul-Crying Beast is born to suck souls and devour ghosts. No matter how powerful a demon or vengeful spirit is, once it encounters this beast, it will absorb it into its belly with just a gentle sniff from its nose. In no time, it will be refined into nothingness. It is the nemesis of ghosts.

Its fundamental power is pure Yang, which specifically counters Yin energy.

If it were placed in the Creation Cauldron and refined using the method of Yin-Yang transformation...

Will a Soul-Crying Beast, which is specifically designed to defeat ghost cultivators, become a "Spirit-Devouring Beast" that specifically targets righteous cultivators?

Could a strange monster that feeds on spirits transform into a terrifying being that feeds on spiritual energy?

Countless thoughts flashed through Qin Han's mind, each one causing his soul to tremble slightly, and his heart was filled with eager anticipation.

"Although the Soul-Crying Beast is strong, it is currently still in its infancy and its strength is limited. If it grows up or is obtained by a protagonist with heaven-defying luck like Han Li, that would be a real problem."

Qin Han calmly analyzed the situation.

"But now, it's right in front of me. A juvenile Soul-Crying Beast, plus Yuan Yao, whose cultivation is only at the early stage of Core Formation..."

He glanced at the spiritual energy fluctuations emanating from the man in black robes and had already made up his mind.

"With my Ghost King-level strength, I am absolutely confident that I can subdue this beast in this Netherworld of the Land of Ghostly Vengeance. The key is how to make the move..."

Qin Han knew that in the original story, Han Li and the others were following closely behind, using the path cleared by Yuan Yao to head this way. Given his cautious nature, he would definitely be keeping a close eye on the movements ahead.

If I were to act rashly, I might alert the enemy and cause unnecessary trouble.

After all, in the original story, Han Li genuinely helped Yuan Yao.

Thinking of this, Qin Han's lips curled into a cold smile.

"If it were somewhere else..."

Qin Han concealed himself within the ghostly mist, his cold, blood-red eyes watching the black-robed cultivator's receding figure. A cold smile curled at the corner of his lips. "I doubt I am a match for Han Li."

Information about Han Li from the original novel flashed through his mind.

The Great Evolution Technique, the Azure Origin Sword Art, the almost wholesale supply of Azure Bamboo Bee Cloud Swords, and the astonishing quantity of Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder... This divine thunder is extremely powerful and yang, making it the natural nemesis of all ghost cultivators in the world.

If it were a direct confrontation, given my current condition, my chances of winning would probably be less than 50%.

Qin Han looked around. The gray, ghostly mist surged endlessly, gusts of cold wind whistled past his ears, and the faint cries of malevolent spirits echoed in the distance.

But this desolate and gloomy space is his greatest asset!

A glint of light flashed in his eyes as he thought to himself, "As a ghost king-level being, my strength will not be suppressed in this land of vengeance. On the contrary, it will be like a bird soaring into the sky or a fish swimming in the sea, my combat power will be multiplied, only stronger!"

Qin Han could clearly feel the dense Yin energy surging into his body like a tide, nourishing his soul every moment.

"On the other hand, look at Han Li and the others..."

Qin Han sneered. These living people who entered the Ghostly Land were constantly being eroded by the Yin energy.

Those with weaker cultivation levels may even have their souls corrupted by the Yin energy, resulting in damage to their cultivation or even madness on the spot.

Even though Han Li has the protective divine thunder to resist the invasion of yin energy, he still has to devote some energy to maintaining the defense.

This means that his combat effectiveness will be reduced here.

As one side gains and the other loses, the gap between the two sides is gradually narrowed.

Qin Han's gaze drifted deeper into the land of ghosts and vengeance, where faint, chilling cries of ghosts could be heard.

"Besides... I'm not the only powerful ghost here."

He knew the ins and outs of this space all too well.

It should be noted that countless cultivators have perished in the Void Heaven Palace, including many at the late Core Formation stage and even the peak Core Formation stage.

The vengeful spirits that cultivators transformed into after their deaths were as powerful as, if not stronger than, ghost kings, and some were even more ferocious than ghost kings.

Normally, those terrifying beings slumber in the deepest part of the Land of Ghosts and Vengeances, but if someone were to trespass into their territory...

A meaningful smile curved at the corners of Qin Han's lips.

"When the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits."

"If Han Li and his group want to get through this haunted land, they'll inevitably have to fight those ghosts. As for me..."

Thinking of this, he slowly concealed his form, his entire body transforming into a faint gray mist, merging with the surrounding ghostly fog.

"What harm is there in becoming that fisherman?"

Qin Han's mind raced.

He was determined to obtain the Soul-Crying Beast, but there was no need to rush.

The best strategy is to wait until Han Li and his group are both exhausted from fighting the powerful ghosts deep in the Ghostly Land, and then take advantage of the chaos to make a move.

At that time, even if Han Li's evil-repelling divine lightning restrains him, as long as he doesn't confront him directly, there won't be any major problems.

not to mention……

Qin Han felt an overwhelming surge of excitement when he thought of the Yin-Yang transformation ability of the Creation Cauldron.

"If this treasure is truly that heaven-defying..."

His thoughts raced, and an even bolder idea gradually took shape in his mind.

The reason why the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder can restrain ghost cultivators is ultimately because its attribute is extremely yang.

One of the core capabilities of the Creation Cauldron is the "transformation of Yin and Yang".

"What if... I also transformed that evil-repelling divine thunder?" As soon as this thought popped into his head, Qin Han's soul involuntarily trembled slightly.

What will the warding-off-evil divine thunder become after it is transformed?

Extreme Yang transforms into extreme Yin!

Then it would no longer be the divine lightning that restrains ghost cultivators.

Qin Han is still unsure of the limits of the Creation Cauldron's power; he currently knows nothing about it.

Although this cauldron recognizes him as its master, he still needs to explore its true power limits little by little.

But one thing is certain: if the Creation Cauldron can indeed convert even power at the level of the Evil-Repelling Divine Thunder, then what it can scheme for is far more than just a single Soul-Crying Beast.

"The inner sanctum of the Void Heaven Palace..."

Qin Han took a deep breath and forcibly suppressed the urge to take immediate action.

"No rush, let's observe the situation first. If the Creation Cauldron is truly heaven-defying, then we'll take as much as we can. If not..."

A faint smile appeared on his lips.

"Then let's just be honest fishermen and see what we can catch."

Qin Han's figure completely merged into the hazy ghostly mist, leaving only a faint whisper drifting in the eerie wind.

"Anyway, the worst outcome is just continuing to be a lonely ghost trapped in the Void Heaven Palace."

"We've already waited so long, what's a little longer?"

With that in mind, Qin Han focused his attention on the black-robed cultivator and the Soul-Crying Beast.

"Let's observe the situation first, and then find an opportunity to strike when they've penetrated deeper. Ideally, we should create chaos so they're preoccupied with their own problems..."
