A lotus lantern shows the way, copper bells seize the soul. The dead travel; the living stand aside.
My name is Yang Qi. I am missing seven souls. Offer up a life tablet to help me become whole.
The netherworld is vast and indistinct; the mortal world stretches without end. Change souls and spirits, alter fate and dispel calamity!
Search the mountains for spirits, command gods and drive ghosts. Five Ghost Emperors, heed my orders beneath the altar!
The lotus lantern guides the way, shining on those who have lost their bearings. Mountains reveal their paths; waters reveal their bridges!
Thunder subdues fire, striking terror into the Nine Hells. Yang rises, yin perishes, and heaven and earth are free of calamity!
My name is Yang Qi. I am a dead man, walking among the living to banish demons and defend the righteous!
My name is Yang Qi! I walk the path of Heaven's mandate! I roam the mortal world! Mountain gods and local earth deities, lend me your strength; let every demon and specter flee in all directions!
A good book, the author has a deep understanding of witchcraft and Taoism.
