[Supernatural Games Invade] [Refining Ghosts into Artifacts] [Source of Calamity] [Plot-Driven]
Supernatural games invade the world, and cursed dungeons descend. I awaken an F-rank artifact-refining talent and become a useless nobody in everyone's eyes.
That is, until an old man tricks me into becoming his disciple and gives me a broken incense burner.
Only after binding it to me do I discover it's the Eight Trigrams Furnace from Doushuai Palace. While everyone else enters dungeons screaming and running from the Boss, I face the charging evil spirits and refine them on the spot.

“It's over. This is the Ghost Bride's domain. So far, no player has ever made it through the night alive.”
“Look, what is he doing?”
“Changing the rules of the Red Wedding dungeon?”
“Wait, did he develop the Yellow Springs Road game?”

The next day, the ghost fled in a panic, leaving everyone stunned.
Later, when S-rank evil spirits, thousand-year drought demons, and abyssal evil gods lined up with tickets in hand, waiting for me to ‘forge artifacts’ for them,
I finally realized the System had been pulling the strings all along!
It wanted to reshape the world into a place where they could survive.
I refuse!
When I set out to refine them into the River of Forgetfulness, the Gates of Hell, and Fengdu...
They cried and complained, “Master, this was all your plan!”
