Synopsis

【Strong Female Lead, No Romance, Rule-Based Horror, Infinite Realms, Chinese-Style Horror】 Traditional culture has been distorted on a massive scale in modern society. Altered pronunciations, words smeared with stigma, and ancient sayings twisted out of shape are gnawing away at the human soul. Su Muyu, the thirtieth-generation descendant of Su Shi and the sole inheritor of the Soulcrafter lineage, joins Li Guazi, a girl whose past is a mystery, and Mr. Dongli, a word spirit from the handwritten pages of Notes from the Thatched Abode of Dongpo, as they enter the Tomb of Words, where rules have been twisted, to repair the disordered spirits of written characters. But as each cultural distortion is set right, a shocking conspiracy to overturn the balance between heaven, earth, and souls quietly closes in on them... Light the soul lamp to reveal cause and effect; blood seeps from its wick to break the soul lock. Burn incense to guide souls and ferry the dead; its ashes turn baleful and open the gates of hell. With the soul-painting brush, record the past; wherever its tip falls, old traces appear. Use the soul-measuring ruler to weigh yin and yang; its markings determine rise and fall. With the soul-stabilizing needle, stitch life and death; its point embroiders a fate as thin as paper. Wind the soul-binding thread around the mortal world; once it snaps, neither gods nor Buddhas can turn back the heavens. Raise the soul-shielding umbrella to fool the Yellow Springs; when it breaks, disaster is at hand. Cast the soulcrafting art and defy the heavens; once the spell is complete, calamity descends upon the netherworld. Those who dare light the lamp invite the heavens’ fire; the lamp oil is brewed from a crafter’s soul.

Proper Rule-Based Horror Stories, No Bait-and-Switch

I'm looking for rule-based horror stories like The Zoo Mystery. At least most of the rules should be correct, and violating them should result in contamination rather than instantly kicking the bucket. An ordinary person who stays alert should have a chance of making it through, instead of it being completely dependent on an overpowered cheat that nobody can survive without.
