[Goat Year, October 20]
In the Scissors Prison of the Second Layer of Asura Domain, the ground is filled with Yin Ghosts with hands like scissors.
Today, I encountered an Early-Stage Golden Core Ghost General, accompanied by a hundred ghosts, it took a lot of effort to slay them.
During this ti, Shen Huaxi kept pushing forward to kill, preventing from having to take too much action.
I appreciate his goodwill, but... never mind!
During the break, Little Green caught two more Scissor Ghosts.
Grafting Ten Thousand Years Phoenix Tree Wood nine tis, still failed.

Trapped in an Illusion Array, found so counting marks in Luanshi Ridge.
Seeing the Cloud Lark scratched below with a sword, I knew these marks were left by Anan.
She was trapped in this array for forty-eight days, and there are still so bloodstains on the rocks, showing how difficult it was for her at that ti.
The Illusion Array isn’t hard to break, we must keep moving forward.

In the Third Layer of Iron Tree Prison, I found more traces of Anan, the leveled iron trees, and the buried bones.
The inscriptions on the graves are all in Anan’s handwriting, so nad, so unnad.
I don’t know these people, but I guess they might be the Righteous Dao predecessors who attacked Asura Domain during the Netherworld Sea Ghost Tide.
Seeing these gravestones, I suddenly thought of what Master told about Master Miaoyin, who was also left in Asura Domain during the Ghost Tide.
I wonder if Sword Lord Guanhan returned to Asura Domain, would he be saddened by these mories?
Today I grafted Snake Willow Tree Branches, succeeded once; a head of white hair can transform into Snake Willow, stronger and more resilient than White Vine.
Once I retrieve the Puppet Avatar, I can use my hair to weave a wig for it.

In the Iron Tree Prison, a river of blood blocks the way, and Flying Magic Treasures cannot be used over it.
Shen Huaxi could only grab my arm to carry across the blood river, seeing him pale and tense, it was truly hard on him.
Little Green rushed into the blood river and caught a Long-Haired Water Ghost.

After flying for three days, finally crossed the blood river, Shen Huaxi was nearly exhausted, left to recuperate.
Tonight, Shen Huaxi received a reply from his mother’s forr subordinates, arranging to et at the Ghost Market of the Five-Layer Steaming Cage Prison.
Shen Huaxi said there was an error in the secret ssage, it felt like a trap, decided not to go, continued to wait for news.
One Long-Tongued Ghost, two Scissor Ghosts, and one Long-Haired Water Ghost have been refined according to the "Five Ghosts Scripture" thod, stored in the Little Green Lantern for feeding.
Except for the Long-Tongued Ghost, others have average potential, little chance of advancent.
If a Yin Ghost can reach Early-Stage Golden Core strength, it would no longer be a mindless Yin Ghost, evolving into a Ghost Cultivator with obsession as its core, continuing its cultivation.
Shen Huaxi ntioned that the Ghost Market ntioned in the letter must harbor Ghost Cultivators, if there’s a chance, capture five.

In the Fourth Layer Sin Mirror Prison, it’s incredibly similar to the Land of Ice Demon Ancestor encountered at the Wind and Cloud eting.
The icy world is filled with mirrors of ice that reflect light, only through transmission from within the Ice Clusters can one cross, the path is extrely complicated.
Fortunately, Shen Huaxi has his mother’s map, knows a shortcut.
In the past few days, I’ve been contemplating, Extraordinary People have innate advantages, possessing traits of the Three Races, I can cultivate both Human and Demon thods, Shen Huaxi can cultivate both Spiritual and Yin Qis.
Can I cultivate another one?
For now, it’s just a thought, this matter is significant, must not be attempted lightly.

Today, encountered a Ghost Cultivator and two Evil Cultivators fighting for sothing outside an altar.
Among them, the Mid-Stage Golden Core Ghost Cultivator was quite dominant, after severely injuring the two Evil Cultivators, he cruelly tortured them until their souls were scattered, then dug out their hearts, drank their blood, and devoured their corpses alive.
Shen Huaxi recognized the Ghost Cultivator from a portrait, claid he was a ritorious Righteous Dao Cultivator during the Netherworld Sea Ghost Tide, who fell in Asura Domain, his Sect still has his rit monunt.
To think that soone who once harbored justice and vowed to slay all Evil Ghosts has also turned into a bloodthirsty Evil Ghost, is truly lantable.
Shen Huaxi told that if a person dies with a strong obsession, they may beco a ghost.
If a Cultivator has an obsession, they beco stronger and more bloodthirsty than a ghost ford by a mortal.
They are no longer their original selves, just Evil Ghosts controlled by obsession, willing to lose reason for completing their obsession, must be carefully guarded against.
I asked Shen Huaxi if there could be exceptions?
Shen Huaxi, with a sorrowful expression, told he had never seen one.

Arrived at Steaming Cage Prison, where the Red Land stretches for miles, extrely hot.
Shen Huaxi said this place used to be the territory of the Fire Demon Red Girl, she and the Ice Demon were sisters differentiated from a mass of Demonic Qi, both died in the ancient war of gods and demons.
This layer has no Yin Ghost Evil Corpse activity, it’s mainly a gathering ground for Ghost Cultivators and Corpse Cultivators.
From Shen Huaxi, I learned a lot about the Demon Clan and Ghost Clan.
The Demon Clan has no distinction of racial veins, only those with renown have titles, the unrenowned are collectively called Demons.
The Ghost Clan are descendants of humans and demons, possessing the three veins of bone, corpse, and soul. Bone Vein refines bones into weapons and has lost the main branch heritage. Now in Asura Domain, only Corpse Cultivators of Corpse Vein and Ghost Cultivators of Soul Vein remain. The Evil Dao Magic Treasures they use are mostly refined using thods from Bone Vein’s branch line.
However, only the Bone Vein main branch knows the real thod for refining Evil Dao Divine Weapons. Ghost Clan once had nine treasures, creating nine great War Generals for the Ghost Clan, those treasures all ca from the Bone Vein.
Shen Huaxi was quite candid, saying he has one, the rest are either lost sowhere in Asura Domain, trapped in the Secret Realm of Heavenly Calamity, or already destroyed.
It seems the Black Iron Fan I have is one of those Taiyin Fans.
Today, grafting Ten Thousand Years Phoenix Tree Wood was nearly successful, just a bit more.

Shen Huaxi’s dical skills are indeed remarkable, able to perfectly disguise us as Corpse Cultivators without a living aura.
Infiltrated the Ghost Market, finally obtained precise information about Anan.
She obtained the Ice Demon inheritance in the Eighth Layer Ice Mountain Prison and has successfully achieved Core Formation, but is currently being pursued.
Five years ago, she escaped into the Thirteenth Layer Blood Pool Prison, where the Blood Evil Qi is prevalent, without Nascent Soul Stage Cultivation, enduring every day there is like the torture of slow slicing.
Yet the Ghost Cultivators and Corpse Cultivators at the Ghost Market still refuse to relent on Anan, desiring the Ice Demon inheritance and Ghost Clan treasure she possesses, and are organizing to besiege Anan.
Shen Huaxi found a reliable old man of the Soul Vein, who gathered so information.
Tian Nanxing may have gathered Qing Nangzi’s old forces, with Ghost Cultivators of the Soul Vein congregating in the depths of Blood Pool Prison’s Soul Vein Old City.
It’s now fortress-like, difficult to enter.
Anan might have entered just before Tian Nanxing blocked off the Blood Pool Prison.
We are to split up, looking for a way into the Blood Pool Prison at the Ghost Market.

[Goat Year, December 12]
I’m not sure if it’s the influence of Asura Domain’s environnt, today I seed to see... myself.
That shadow flickered and disappeared so quickly I could barely be sure.
We’ve been in Asura Domain for nearly two months, if things went smoothly, Master and Sword Lord Guanhan, along with Ding Lanzhi and Xie Jingshan’s mother, should have reached Wentian Island.
Regarding entering Blood Pool Prison, Shen Huaxi and I both found a thod, to be safe, we’ve decided to split up.
He’s following the secret path with his Soul Vein old subordinates; I’m going with those Ghost Cultivators and Corpse Cultivators to
’besiege’ Lu Nanzhi!
