I became a passerby in the book, and I became a god

Chapter 219 Resentment

But she is only at the Golden Core stage, how can she contract a ghost whose strength is two realms higher than hers?

Although she can imitate Yin Qi to hide her aura, the ghosts here are all those who rely on Yin Qi to cultivate. They are definitely more sensitive to Yin Qi than living things. The higher their strength, the stronger their sensitivity will naturally be.

Those ghosts will bite and eat the souls of living creatures. Naturally, the souls of living creatures can increase their strength, but apart from this, is there no other way that can allow them to quickly improve their strength?

Is it possible to devour weak ghosts?

As soon as Yu Qiuyi thought of this, he shook his head. If this was feasible, why would the abyss be filled with so many ghosts?

Thinking of this, Yu Qiuyi asked again: "Senior, after you became a ghost, how did you practice? Or, do you know how to improve your cultivation?"

Kong Changming pondered for a moment, then slowly said: "After becoming a ghost, I mainly rely on absorbing Yin Qi to practice, and sometimes I also absorb some ghost Qi."

After a pause, he continued, "In addition to this, I discovered that I can also improve my cultivation by absorbing death energy, resentment, or devouring weak ghosts."

"Among them, directly devouring ghosts is the fastest way to improve your cultivation, and resentment is the second fastest."

Yu Qiuyi nodded.

He then asked puzzledly: "Since devouring ghosts is the fastest way to improve strength, why are there so many ghosts in the abyss? Is there any reason?"

"The meat is small and smells bad." Kong Changming said with some disgust.

Seeing that Yu Qiuyi was still a little confused, Kong Changming continued to explain patiently: "Most of these weak ghosts had no cultivation when they were alive."

"Logically speaking, if they don't reincarnate, they will gradually dissipate over time."

"And the reason why they have been able to last for so long is entirely because they are supported by the resentment within them."

"But because they don't reincarnate, their consciousness will gradually be lost over time, just like the ghosts on the wall of the abyss here, which are completely dominated by resentment."

"Unless they are confronted again with the people or things that caused them to feel resentment in their previous lives, their lost consciousness will be awakened again."

"And the soul before death is weak. If it does not encounter a great opportunity before losing consciousness after death, it will be difficult for the originally weak soul to grow."

"Therefore, the power brought by devouring such a ghost, even for a ghost in the Qi Refining Stage, is negligible."

"As for the stench, it's because the resentment generated in the bodies of these ghosts, which are supported by resentment, is mostly different."

"Some are because of the injustice they suffered in their lifetime, some are because of their attachment to the living, and some are because of their fear of death."

"So there are tens of thousands of ghosts on the wall of the abyss, and there are probably tens of thousands of kinds of grievances."

“And if high-level ghosts devour these ghosts, some of their resentment will be transferred to the high-level ghosts.”

"As for the second-ranked resentment, it allows ghosts to quickly improve their strength. Its effect is similar to that of a tonic. It takes time to digest."

“So, once a high-level ghost absorbs a large amount of these different types of resentment into its body, and the resentment in its body cannot be digested in time, it is very easy to affect the mind of the high-level ghost with multiple types of resentment accumulated in its body.”

"As a result, they become violent and uncontrollable, and may even grow several consciousnesses within the high-level ghost bodies."

“So, although powerful ghosts can devour ghosts with low cultivation, they will not choose these ghosts that carry various grievances and are weak in strength.”

I see. But resentment is a great tonic. Are we just going to let those high-level ghosts go? Can’t we just deal with them one by one?

Thinking about it, Yu Qiuyi also asked.

"Since each of those ghosts has resentment in their bodies, and they are a great tonic for you, can't you take them one by one, digest the resentment of the previous one, and then absorb the resentment of the next one?"

"No, their souls are too weak, and the resentment in their bodies is naturally not enough for us to absorb. Moreover, if there is only one, once it is absorbed into our body, it will easily overflow if it is not refined immediately. And if there are too many, it will gather together like Yin Qi."

"That's why I said they were small and smelly."

"Another point is that if one does not have any resentment during life, then the soul after death cannot store resentment. So once we encounter resentment, we can only quickly refine and absorb it and transform it into ghost energy, or use other methods to store it."

Yu Qiuyi finally understood.

So these weak ghosts are difficult to use?

What about catching big ghosts?

Originally, she only had the Golden Core and might not be strong enough, but with Kong Changming, she might be able to compete.

Thinking about it, Yu Qiuyi asked, "Have you ever thought about catching the Jindan-stage ghosts here to devour and improve your strength?"

Kong Changming nodded subconsciously.

“Yes, it is being implemented.”

Yu Qiuyi's eyes lit up, and he was eager to try: "How about I lend you a hand? Or, should we act separately?"

Kong Changming looked at Yu Qiuyi steadily, then remembered his previous confrontation with Yu Qiuyi and nodded.

He replied, "Okay."

Yu Qiuyi also thought that it was impossible to simply contract a ghost to the Spiritualization Stage.

So I thought, it would be nice to improve Kong Changming's strength to the Spirit Transformation Stage.

As long as Kong Changming's strength improves, won't she no longer need to contract with the ghost in the divine stage?

But how can we prevent Kong Changming from destroying his bridges after crossing them?

Although Kong Changming had not made things difficult for her before and his reminder was true, the situation has changed now. Who knows what he will do if Kong Changming's strength really improves to the Spirit Transformation Stage?

Establish the Heavenly Dao Contract again?

Or contract him?

But what if Kong Changming is really Master Zi Yueqing’s grandfather?

Forget it, let’s sign a heavenly contract.

Thinking about this, Yu Qiuyi mentioned the Heavenly Dao Contract after communicating with Kong Changming.

The content is naturally that after the matter is accomplished, Kong Changming must not destroy the bridge after crossing it, but must send Yu Qiuyi out of the abyss.

After the discussion, Yu Qiuyi gave Kong Changming a jade slip for communication, and then parted ways with Kong Changming, agreeing to hand over the captured ghost to Kong Changming.

The reason why Yu Qiuyi wanted to act separately from Kong Changming was because she had another plan, which was to make a contract with a ghost on the wall of the abyss.

Since Kong Changming said those ghosts were so evil, could she try to let those evil creatures of the same level devour each other?

But, in all their existence, have they never tried to devour each other?

Never mind, let’s try it first.
