Chapter 377

She asked this actually to see if Jiang Yan had any opinions on ghost cultivators.

Since he didn't, she was relieved.

For ordinary vengeful spirits, she would just send them away better.

For those who had committed many evils, she would let them fight for her for the rest of their lives; if they died in the struggles of cultivators, that was their fortune.

Not far away, Lisa looked at Hu Tao with great interest.

Her Karma Fire Soul-Burning Art needed to burn souls, while Hu Tao's Ten Thousand Ghost Records needed souls to be driven.

In this way, they could be considered competitors.

Lisa didn't feel annoyed; on the contrary, she felt a bit motivated.

Competition, after all!

Hu Tao was now at the middle stage of Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation, and she was about to reach the late stage.

Lisa didn't feel she couldn't compete with Hu Tao, and...

If one wanted souls, the most suitable places were the Nine Nether Secret Realm and the Xuanming Small World.

There were countless souls in those two places, and according to what Jiang Yan said,

every single one was extremely wicked.

The Xuanming Small World was a world where demonic cultivators gathered, and the Nine Nether Secret Realm was even more of a habitat for demonic beasts.

What kind of good people could there be in those two places?

Just go all out and kill, as long as you can beat them...

"The use of the Ten Thousand Ghost Records is actually more suitable for you, and if used well, it will be a good medicine for Teyvat."

Jiang Yan looked at Hu Tao's excited appearance and couldn't help but offer some guidance:

"During the Archon War in Liyue's ancient times, many Archons fell..."

Hearing this, Zhongli's eyes lit up; he seemed to have understood something.

"The Sect Master means... Archon remnants?"

Jiang Yan nodded slightly and said softly:

"Xiao's karmic debt was so strong because he was contaminated by the remnants while cleaning them up, right?"

Xiao stepped out and bowed:

"Thank you for your concern, Sect Master. That is exactly the case. However, the disciple has now embarked on the path of cultivation and no longer worries about Archon remnants."

"But precisely because you have embarked on the path of cultivation, you cannot go back to clean up the Archon remnants often."

Jiang Yan said softly, and Xiao remained silent.

Jiang Yan was telling the truth; he hadn't been back to Liyue for a long time recently.

It wasn't that he didn't want to, but he didn't have the time.

Shushan had many affairs, and there was also the Opening Ceremony.

As the Sect Master, although Jiang Yan ruled Shushan, he couldn't watch over all the big and small affairs.

The Sect Master's biggest task was cultivation.

Management matters were naturally handed over to Zhongli and the others.

But Alice had to accompany Klee and supervise the Merit Hall.

Venti didn't look like someone who could manage things.

Zhongli had to sit in Dragon Head Peak to suppress the Nine Nether Secret Realm and also cultivate diligently to prepare for revenge.

Many affairs were watched over by Xiao, such as supervising disciples, patrolling Shushan, and checking the status of spiritual mines, spiritual herbs, and demonic beasts outside the seven veins of Shushan.

Xiao, as the eldest disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall, was also one of the strongest disciples at present.

His tasks were still very heavy.

He naturally didn't have the time to go back to Liyue to clean up the Archon remnants.

In other words, the Archon remnants in Liyue had been mostly dealt with by him in recent years, so they wouldn't erupt from time to time like before.

But overall, they couldn't be left alone.

Xiao himself had planned to go back after the Opening Ceremony ended. With his current strength,

let alone mere Archon remnants, even if an Archon were resurrected, he could press them down and beat them to death again.

However, looking at Jiang Yan's current statement, he probably didn't need to make the trip himself.

Sure enough, Jiang Yan's next words made Xiao feel relieved.

"The so-called Archon remnants are actually the residual souls of Archons."

"Xiao's karmic debt was caused by being contaminated by the residual souls when dealing with them."

Hearing this, Lisa and Hu Tao's eyes lit up.

As smart as they were, they clearly had already thought of the key to the problem.

"The Sect Master means..."

Lisa looked at Jiang Yan expectantly, and the latter nodded slightly.

"Lisa's Karma Fire Soul-Burning Art and Hu Tao's Ten Thousand Ghost Records are both techniques targeting souls."

"Residual souls are also souls."

"For you, dealing with Archon remnants is a matter of ease. Not only will you not be contaminated by karmic debt, but you can also become stronger."

"Hu Tao can use Archon residual souls to refine her own ghost generals and Ghost Domain, and Lisa can burn Archon residual souls, convert them into cultivation, and strengthen her karma fire."

"For you, Archon remnants are unique cultivation resources."

"Therefore, you can walk through Teyvat later to solve the Archon residual souls. Firstly, eliminate the Archon remnants, and secondly, improve your strength."

"Killing two birds with one stone."

"Especially Hu Tao..."

Jiang Yan glanced at Zhongli and said meaningfully:

"Hu Tao, your Ten Thousand Ghost Records is a technique targeting souls, but as I said, techniques have no right or wrong, and power is not divided into good or evil."

"If the heart is not upright, it is naturally an evil technique, but if it is used for righteousness..."

"Then it is the supreme treasure for solving all soul problems."

"Eleazar, karmic debt, and even erosion, are all directions that the Ten Thousand Ghost Records can control."

Hearing this, Zhongli suddenly became spirited.

Not to mention anything else, clearing erosion...

Wasn't this a timely rain?

He had just been worrying about how to solve Azhdaha's erosion.

Admittedly, letting Azhdaha cultivate immortality could immediately solve the harm of erosion.

However, Azhdaha had already been tortured crazy by erosion; how could he cultivate immortality?

If he solved it himself, he didn't have the corresponding means. If he turned into Erlang, he could only beat Azhdaha to death with a stick.

He had also considered Lisa's Karma Fire Soul-Burning Art before.

But that was a murderous technique; if Lisa did that to Azhdaha,

Azhdaha would probably lose his life.

Now, with Hu Tao cultivating the Ten Thousand Ghost Records, Azhdaha's erosion could be solved in an instant.

By then, Azhdaha would cultivate immortality, and Shushan would add a powerful combat force at the late stage of Essence Refinement and Qi Transformation.

Liyue would also have one more powerful immortal guardian.

This deal couldn't be more cost-effective.

At least now, Zhongli had to support Hu Tao in cultivating the Ten Thousand Ghost Records.

Presumably, even if Hu Tao's grandfather knew, he would understand.

"Although the origin of the Ten Thousand Ghost Records cannot compare to the Son of Heaven Conferred God Art, it is also a truly powerful technique."

"You must develop it well."

"Regarding soul questions, if there is anything you don't understand, you can consult Lisa. She has been cultivating the Karma Fire Soul-Burning Art for a long time and is a genius in the way of souls."

Hearing Jiang Yan praise her, Lisa raised her head proudly.

That's right!

She was a genius in the way of souls.

At least when it came to how to reuse souls, she was a professional.

However, Lisa was still looking forward to communicating with Hu Tao. ===== CHAPTER 378 =====
