Refining Myself into a Corpse

No-Romance Stories Focused on Unorthodox Paths Like Illusions, Poison, and Ghost Taming

I want a story with no romance. The protagonist can be a villain, too, and should focus on unorthodox methods, not mainstream orthodox cultivation techniques.

Utterly Cold-Blooded and Completely Emotionless, a Lone Wolf With No Family

Villain Stories About Refining Corpses and Raising Ghosts, Preferably With Lots of Both and a Slow Pace

I want to read books like The Villainous Heretic: Refining Corpses and Raising Ghosts Isn't Going Too Far, Is It?

Looking for Dark Cultivation: Resources Are Monopolized, and the Protagonist Is Ruthless and Determined to Live Forever

Don't recommend anything under a million words.

Dark Protagonist, Ruthless and Merciless, No Goody-Two-Shoes

Something like Gu Zhenren.

Novels Like "All Heavens and Worlds, Infinite Plunder and Copy"

I would like to read a book similar to "Golden Fingers Are Flooding, I Rely on Copying to Become a Saint". Novels like "All Heavens and Worlds, Infinite Plunder and Copy"
