Realm of the Night God

Chapter 695: A Breakthrough

For half a year, Lecheng's ghost had not stopped, with new ghosts emerging and old ghosts hiding.

These ghosts, except for a few that escaped, were mostly guided by Yang Haoran's people. The successfully guided ghosts were either sent to the underworld by Yang Haoran according to the rules or refined into soul pills by him.

In this chaotic world, human lives were as fragile as grass, and the number of deaths was too high. The authorities wanted to control it but couldn't, which led to an increase in the workload of the Yin Division.

However, Yang Haoran's strength could be greatly enhanced, relying on these ghosts. Without a large number of ghosts, it would be extremely difficult for him to enhance his strength, even with a soul-refining cauldron.

When one person achieves success, their followers also rise to prominence. Yang Haoran's strength had increased, and the people around him, including the ghosts he raised and his Night Watch, also benefited greatly. Their strength also made rapid progress, although the Night Watch gained relatively less.

It wasn't that Yang Haoran was biased, but he didn't dare to give the Night Watch too many benefits. Although the Night Watch was also his people, they were an open force, and if their strength increased too rapidly, it would only bring him trouble.

So, Yang Haoran could only enhance the strength of his Night Watch within a controllable range.

In the study room, Yang Haoran was reading a book as usual, while his body was constantly releasing pure yin qi from the soul pills to absorb and refine. He had been operating in this mode for half a year, absorbing and refining soul pills while doing other things, which had become a habit for him.

However, whenever the soul pills were running low, he would stop, because he had to keep some in reserve for emergency situations.

Currently, he had not only reserved soul pills but also had extras, so he dared to consume them as if they were candy.The book Yang Haoran was reading recorded some secret information, including the transmission of organizational heritage, which involved the transmission of Fu Sect's heritage.

Regarding the transmission of Fu Sect's heritage, he read very carefully, as he was a talisman master himself and was naturally concerned about this issue.

According to the secret records, Fu Sect had a method to transfer a talisman master's power to another talisman master, allowing the recipient to gain the power of the transferor. Fu Sect's high-ranking masters were almost all created through this method.

What exactly was this method of transferring power? The book didn't provide much information, only mentioning its existence. Yang Haoran couldn't determine whether the records were true or false, as secrets like this could be either true or false, and he couldn't completely believe or disbelieve them.

However, he did hope that Fu Sect had such a method, as it would allow him to enhance his own Talisman Spirit Power and keep up with his growing strength.

In the past half year, Yang Haoran's Talisman Spirit Power had not made significant progress, mainly because the Heaven and Earth spirit qi in this place was too thin, providing limited help. Additionally, he didn't practice cultivation like other talisman masters, absorbing Heaven and Earth spirit qi to enhance himself, and he had other things to do, which slowed down the increase of his Talisman Spirit Power.

But if Fu Sect really had a method to transfer power, it would be of great help to him. If he could get his hands on this method, he might be able to find a shortcut.

Of course, this was just his one-sided thinking, and it didn't matter whether Fu Sect had such a method or not. Even if they did, how could he get his hands on it? Fu Sect would definitely treasure this method, and it wouldn't be easy to obtain.

Moreover, even if he had the opportunity to get his hands on this method, which talisman master would be willing to transfer their power to him?

Just as Yang Haoran was thinking about this question, he suddenly sensed a power fluctuation rapidly approaching his villa.

This power fluctuation was Yin spirit power, indicating that the arrival was someone from the Yin Division. When this person entered the Mountain and Water Formation, the formation didn't repel him, and Yang Haoran knew it was Master Wu returning, as Xiaokang was cultivating in the villa and hadn't gone anywhere.

Since the world became chaotic, Master Wu's returns had become less frequent, as he had to handle too many trivial matters and maintain overall control, making it impossible for him to return to the villa as frequently as before.

Yang Haoran's guess was correct, and the person who suddenly returned was indeed Master Wu, as he appeared before him just a few breaths later.

Over the past six months, Master Wu had been constantly on guard against spirit masters and handling other trivial matters, putting a lot of pressure on him. Additionally, his physical body was aging daily, making him look very old.

Yang Haoran had advised Master Wu multiple times to take a break and rest for a while, promising to handle the Death God Temple's affairs, but Master Wu had refused decisively, leaving no room for negotiation.

Helpless, Yang Haoran could only follow Master Wu's lead and think of other ways to help him privately, as Master Wu had been with him for many years, and their emotional bond had grown stronger with time. He didn't want to see Master Wu's life end like this.

"Old Wu, take a seat and rest for a bit."

Yang Haoran could see that Master Wu had returned for a reason, but he didn't ask immediately, instead letting Master Wu sit down and rest for a while, while he prepared to pour Master Wu a cup of hot tea.

"Boss, this isn't the time to rest or drink tea. We have a huge piece of news - our Lecheng finally has a spirit master emerging!"

As soon as Master Wu spoke, Yang Haoran's hand movement paused slightly, but he didn't put down the teapot, still pouring Master Wu a cup of hot tea and smiling as he handed it to him.

"Heh heh, it's been half a year, and these guys have finally shown up in our Lecheng. What's the situation? Tell me in detail."

Yang Haoran's reaction was extremely calm, with no change in his expression or tone, and no strong emotional fluctuations upon hearing the news of the spirit master.

Master Wu wasn't surprised by Yang Haoran's reaction, as he had become accustomed to his boss's demeanor, which had changed over time to become more composed and unflappable.

Master Wu didn't know that as Yang Haoran's power grew daily, his inner self became increasingly calm, giving people a sense of stability, and his emotions became harder to stir and less likely to be expressed.

Master Wu didn't marvel at Yang Haoran's reaction and instead told him the detailed situation.

According to Master Wu, a small town within Lecheng's borders had suddenly built a temple.

Ordinarily, building a temple wouldn't be a big deal, as in the current state of the New Genesis World, most ordinary people's faith in deities had reached new heights, and many villagers had even organized themselves to build temples in their villages to worship their deities, hoping to receive their protection and deter demons. So, villagers building temples wasn't unusual.

However, the temple Master Wu mentioned was different, as it was a Spirit God Temple, dedicated to the Spirit God that many spirit masters worshipped.

Master Wu had learned about this news from a Night Watch report, which had discovered the newly built Spirit God Temple in their jurisdiction while dealing with undead creatures just this morning.
