Be the Hardest Working Demon Cultivator!

The only pity was that although Tan Shuchang had opened the treasury of the Zi Xuan Dynasty, he had no time to search it thoroughly.

He could only take some items based on his senses, swallowing them whole, so to speak.

At this moment, having confirmed everything, Tan Shuchang issued the recruitment order. As this recruitment order appeared on the official website of the bizarre game, a multitude of players immediately became excited.

Among them were regular living players as well as those who had borrowed corpses to be resurrected.

Because Tan Shuchang had specifically added a sentence in the recruitment that only those who had borrowed corpses could see, stating that their origin was not restricted.

Thus, just a few minutes later, the slots for recruiting ghost messengers under Tan Shuchang were filled.

He didn't screen them, basically approving every application that came in.

"One thousand ghost messengers, still a bit few, but for now, that's all I can recruit..." Tan Shuchang sighed lightly. He recruited players not only because it was easy to deal with their salaries, but also because he could integrate the shadows of the blood corpses into the players' bodies.

Thus, low strength of players, in his view, was not a problem at all.

Then, Tan Shuchang entered the Lang Shou Ghost City.

Since the bizarre game required him to open the fourth domain, it naturally granted him the rights to enter and exit the game at will, but only when Tan Shuchang officially confirmed the development of the fourth domain did the game give him this right.

At that moment, as Tan Shuchang stepped into the bizarre game world, looking at its dim environment, an idea naturally emerged in his mind.

This was an idea he had had before.

But since he was not able to enter and leave the game at will in the past, even though he had this idea, he had to reluctantly give it up.

And this idea was to bring some wandering ghosts from the Jiawu Realm here, to see if those ghosts could be upgraded to ferocious spirits in this place.

If possible, then while developing the fourth domain, he would have gained a batch of free labor.

At this time, when Tan Shuchang arrived at the Lang Shou Ghost City, those who had applied to be ghost messengers had already been transported here and formed into dozens of large and small groups.

If everything went as expected, these should be the player groups.

Tan Shuchang glanced around and, as expected, spotted seven familiar people. They were the "under the City Lord," which he had created, and at this moment, these seven individuals were no longer solitary, each bringing along numerous players. After all, they were already B-level players.

Given the current state of A-level players, B-level had already become the limit for normal living players.

To become an A-level player that met the standards of the bizarre game, these normal living players all had to cultivate the "Lang Shou Ghost Lord Technique" to the third level.

Originally, these small player groups had been quietly discussing among themselves, but as soon as Tan Shuchang appeared, these normal living players fell silent.

Observing the suddenly quiet scene, Tan Shuchang experienced a bit of the joy felt by a head teacher from his previous life.

Then, without further ado, he waved his sleeve.

Instantly, a sea of blood enveloped the sky, and when the blood light cleared, a bloody corpse phantom appeared beside each player.

"Merge with the Blood Spirit; with its help, you can temporarily advance your strength to the fourth level of the Cultivation Technique," Tan Shuchang finally explained.

As the sound of Tan Shuchang's voice fell, about a dozen people immediately began merging.

Among them were those seven individuals and a few others. Tan Shuchang took note of them and decided to provide them with some special guidance later, giving each a book containing his personal insights on the "Sevenfold Demonic Body Scripture."

After all, the first batch of trailblazers always needed some sweeteners to attract others to follow suit.

Seeing these dozen or so people taking action, more followed, though not many. Considering the total number of a thousand players, this group hardly made up one twentieth of the total.

Before long, the first dozen who had started had successfully merged with the "Blood Spirit."

"Very good."

Tan Shuchang nodded, his form veiled in a phantom as his voice boomed like thunder. Following his words, a dozen scrolls floated down in front of these few people.

One scroll per person.

"This is my understanding of the Cultivation Technique," said Tan Shuchang. At his words, the dozen people instantly became incredibly excited.

Only those players who had practiced the Cultivation Technique knew how incredible it was. Among them, the most excited were the seven who had started practicing early and had already reached the second layer. Now, with this jade slip, they saw a glimmer of hope to break through to the third layer.

At this moment, because these dozen people had received the reward from the "Lang Shou Ghost Master," the other players couldn't help showing their shock and regret.

The players who had integrated the "Blood God" into themselves were now eagerly looking at the "Lang Shou Ghost Master."

Tan Shuchang glanced at these people but only passed them a message telepathically.

He was advising them on how to use the temporary power of the fourth layer brought by the "Blood God" to cultivate their own power.

Although they didn't receive the jade slip, this piece of advice made these players quite happy.

Then, Tan Shuchang no longer spoke.

At that time, his dog-head strategist had hurried over with his subordinates, the fierce ghosts. These ghosts already knew about Tan Shuchang's plan to develop the fourth domain, especially the ghost scholar, who was particularly excited at the moment.

After all, if the Lang Shou Ghost Master were to become the Lang Shou King, it meant that he, the dog-head strategist, could ascend to heaven with him.

A position of the Yin God was undoubtedly part of the plan.

Therefore, full of motivation, the dog-head strategist immediately urged the players to start the integration.

Seeing the ghosts appear and having mentally prepared when applying, the players also began to integrate.

After all, someone had already led by example.

Quickly, these thousand players had merged with the blood-colored corpses of Tan Shuchang, and their strength could momentarily match that of the fierce ghosts.

Then, Tan Shuchang had an unexpected gain.

These normal, living players, who originally gained power from the weird game, had only two choices: ghost techniques and accommodating fierce ghosts.

Therefore, in these thousand players, there was a group who had accommodated fierce ghosts in their bodies.

These blood-colored corpses had already been specially processed by Tao Jun and later enhanced by Tan Shuchang's Cultivation Technique, making them even more fierce and domineering.

Thus, after integrating the Blood God, the fierce ghosts housed inside these players were expelled.

Those players accommodating fierce ghosts were not afraid but rather pleased.

After all, having a body accommodate fierce ghosts, who wouldn't be affected? It could be said that a significant reason these players chose to become ghost envoys under Tan Shuchang was the unbearable torment inflicted by the ghosts inside them, which they hoped to suppress using the ghostly energy from the Lang Shou Ghost City.

This way, Tan Shuchang suddenly had over one hundred and sixty more fierce ghosts at his disposal.

This realization made Tan Shuchang see another significant use for these players: he could temporarily use the players as containers to house fierce ghosts from other places!

He didn't need to personally collect fierce ghosts at all!

Of course, he couldn't rush this matter; it had to be done slowly! After all, accommodating fierce ghosts in a fleshly body had a very low tolerance for error, and one misstep could be fatal.

So, Tan Shuchang immediately had these over a thousand ghost envoys advertise for him on the only official website of the weird game.

The content of the advertisement was naturally related to expelling ghosts.

Of course, it wasn't free help to expel the ghosts inside the players but there was a fee involved; those without sufficient merit had to work for the Lang Shou Ghost City for a certain period of time as unpaid temporary ghost envoys.

After all, offering free services might make the players hesitate, fearing some kind of trap, and it also wouldn't be beneficial for Tan Shuchang's development of the Lang Shou Ghost City.

He was relying on the power of this ghost city to provide him with a large number of fierce ghosts.

After the news that this Lang Shou Ghost Master could expel ghosts inside players spread, it immediately caused quite a stir on the only official website of the weird game.
