In this world, any attractive reason can be false, beauty, talent, background... these sometimes cannot be taken for real; only benefits are the eternal truth.

...

The world of the mysterious game.

Tan Shuchang had put aside the matters of the Path of the Ancient Yin. His millennium-long cultivation had so far reached only three hundred ninety-nine years, roughly one-third.

"The development of the fourth domain must continue..."

Tan Shuchang cast his gaze into the darkness ahead, developing the fourth domain was not just about killing the enemies that lay in the path; it required carving out a region in this mysterious game world, no less than the realms of the Suffering Buddha, Desire Serpent, and the Birthless.

However, Tan Shuchang didn\'t really intend to create it, since it would mean essentially working for the mysterious game.

What Tan Shuchang contemplated was how to use the process to more quickly and less resistently "consume" a large number of fierce ghosts by the mysterious game.

After all, the Land of Yin and Darkness was profoundly mysterious; he couldn\'t even manage to blend in, whereas the mysterious game was easier to infiltrate. As long as he was willing to develop the fourth domain, there were naturally two powerful allies to help him withstand the power from the authorities.

At that moment, the direction of the darkness Tan Shuchang was looking at was where he intended to develop.

However, even his cunning military advisor had been unable to find out anything about this place.

So, Tan Shuchang was considering a cautious investigation plan that wouldn\'t affect his reputation for issuing currency in the mysterious game. After all, if too many players died during the development, his trustworthiness among players could plummet significantly! Stay updated via empire

At this time, the scholarly ghost, who had been ordered away by Tan Shuchang, came back, reporting that the four great fierce ghosts under the throne of the Earth Destruction King had arrived outside the city.

Tan Shuchang glanced outside the city and indeed, four had come.

Having met before in the realm of the Suffering Buddha, these four now seemed a bit odd, their domains of malice had swollen, and there was a rising trend in their rules of killing. However, their faces sporadically showed expressions of pain.

"Let them come in!" Tan Shuchang didn\'t mind, and casually ordered, since he couldn\'t consume them.

"We greet the King!"

The four great fierce ghosts, after a respectful salute, directly stated their purpose: "This is what the Earth Destruction King bid us to deliver, to be seen only by the King, and we ask that the King keeps everything here confidential, as divulging it may lead to a lot of unnecessary trouble."

After saying this, the four fierce ghosts quickly presented a sealed scroll.

Tan Shuchang reached out and took it, discovering that he needed to use some of the nascent authority power from his royal robes to open it. This piqued his interest somewhat in the scroll.

"I understand. Please thank the Earth Destruction King for me."

Tan Shuchang expressed his thanks, then had the scholarly ghost give the four fierce ghosts four knife-shaped Bronze Coins as a reward. These were samples of the currency he intended to issue in the future. They were worthless now but would certainly be exchangeable for much more later.

The four fierce ghosts, looking at the Bronze Coins that seemed of little value, nevertheless dared not refuse and even accepted them somewhat joyously.

Then they took their leave.

Meanwhile, Tan Shuchang opened the scroll and began to read, and as he did, his expression inevitably turned quite odd.

"If they had given this to me earlier, why would I mind working for them?"
