Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

Chapter 161 119. Tan Shuchang, favored by the snake_2

"Go ahead!" the old Family Head of the Dong family said.

Upon hearing this, the Sword Young Master immediately nodded, "Don't worry, Father!"

Then he went out to work.

No sooner had Sword Young Master left than a young girl found an excuse to follow him and then gave Sword Young Master a suggestion, "Send an invitation to each of the four Princes. It's, after all, the Sword Appreciation Ceremony, and the master of the sword is fierce and deadly. It would be somewhat inauspicious not to have a sacrificial offering."

Upon hearing this, Sword Young Master suddenly appeared hesitant, as if he wanted to speak, then stopped, and wanted to speak again.

Then, Sword Young Master seemed to give up struggling and sighed lightly, "Destroy that backdoor in your Magic Artifact, lest Tan Shuchang finds out about this after his enlightenment and comes to beat you up."

"Don't worry, I've already destroyed it!" Dongdong spread his small hands, and in the palm of his hand, there were some fragments of a Magic Artifact, exactly the remnants from the "backdoor" of Tan Shuchang's recording Magic Artifact.

"That's good!"

Sword Young Master nodded, then revealed a secret, "Actually, I also had a backdoor to your backdoor. But don't worry, I have already destroyed it."

To make the young girl believe, Sword Young Master also spread his hands, showing some fragments of the Magic Artifact.

Dongdong: "..."

Then, she took a deep look at Sword Young Master and turned away directly.

Indeed, one who could tell her the most important thing about being a Sword Cultivator is to be flexible, should not have had any expectations of his character.

Sword Young Master didn't mind; after all, blaming him was like blaming herself! Immediately, Sword Young Master went to deliver the invitations and announce the Sword Appreciation Ceremony.

However, as Sword Young Master hurried away, he did not notice that the magic treasure of spiritual communication he had picked up in his youth suddenly departed from his body.

The mirror faced the void, and the mirror's surface burst forth with a nine-colored radiance, then a hand as pale as jade stretched out from the radiance.

This hand casually grasped in the void, and a book-shaped Magic Artifact arrived out of thin air.

Though this book-shaped Magic Artifact appeared thick, it was actually very thin, for it only had three pages, including the cover and the bottom. Despite its odd appearance, it was indeed a genuine spirit-communicating Magic Artifact.

At this moment, the spirit nurtured through refinement in the spirit-communicating Magic Artifact was very active; yet, even with such vitality, the spirit had not realized that it had already left its original owner.

Then, as the book-shaped Magic Artifact was forcibly opened, the diary entries inside solidified into text, all presented forth.

As these words appeared, the mirror trembled uncontrollably for a while.

After a while, the mirror returned to normal and immediately returned the book-shaped Magic Artifact to its owner; the mirror also sneaked back onto Sword Young Master.

A treasure capable of coming out and choosing its master autonomously, how could it possibly be an ordinary object?

"Therefore, even if this trade is unequal, they can only accept it. If they truly do not wish to accept it, they can simply give up. I have never forced them. Moreover, there are ways to obtain the king's money other than by hunting malignant ghosts," said Tan Shuchang in a calm tone, gently shaking his head.

This currency system of his was merely for facilitating the acquisition of malignant ghosts.

The foundation for creating this currency system certainly included his previously accumulated reputation as one part, but the main reason was that these items were of great assistance only to the players and currently, he was the only one who possessed them in this eerie game world.

Besides, Tan Someone was not one to ignore other's feelings.

He had also considered the flesh-and-blood players with lower strength, as well as the novice flesh-and-blood players without any strength, providing several ways to earn Láng Shǒu Demon Lord King money that had very low risk factors.

For example, collecting useful malignant ghost information.

It's up to the administration of Lang Shou Ghost Town to verify the usefulness of this information, and it does not require the players to take any risks. In other words, upon hearing any news, players just needed to report it to the Ghost Town.

If the news proved useful, they could get a bronze knife coin, and if not, they naturally received no reward but no punishment either.

It was purely something done by the way.

"Yes, Your Majesty."

With that, the ghost scholar refrained from saying anything more.

And with Tan Shuchang's "unwavering insistence" on not changing the exchange system, the heat of players' groups hunting malignant ghosts gradually declined, as many players saw the effort as severely disproportionate to the rewards.

Initially, this was because their cultivation was low, so the cultivation pills seemed very useful. Moreover, there was the concern about the scenario of storing grain next to a neighbor storing guns, turning into the neighbor's granary.

However, although many players gave up directly hunting malignant ghosts, for Tan Shuchang, the speed at which he obtained malignant ghosts did not slow down much.

Because when directly hunting malignant ghosts became unfeasible, most players started thinking of other ways to obtain the bronze knife coins.

And each malignant ghost had its unique pattern for killings.

Therefore, when a large amount of similar, useless malignant ghost information appeared, it often led to pinpointing genuine malignant ghost information. This pattern was noticed not only by Tan Shuchang but also by the flesh-and-blood players.

Thus, batch after batch of malignant ghosts were delivered into Tan Shuchang's Blood Pool, until one day, scarlet characters appeared in the sky of this eerie game world, shaking the entire eerie game world.

[Ritual Offering Commenced!]

[Challenger: Láng Shǒu King.]

[Challenged: Greedy Venerable King.]

[The winner will receive the body of the Snake Desire Realm rule and become the favored one by the Rule of Greed.]

[Greed originates from the endless desires deep within the human heart. When the heart seeks more than it can hold, Láng Shǒu King's boundless greed, inventing pretexts and brutal exactions, touches the Rule of Greed and thus, this ritual offering is commenced!]
