Taboo, demonic cultivation, and the righteous path: how did those three things end up together?
Don’t tell me this is just for shock value!

“Hey, that kid’s been thrown into the Ghost Forest again? Zhao Kuo’s fake smile makes me want to slap him across the face!”
“Hold on. Look, his black-and-red strange markings are spreading, and a blood-red notification is flooding the screen: ‘Intense malice detected. Strange energy +500!’ Everyone else is afraid of dying, but he’s having the time of his life. He tames a red-robed paper effigy and a female ghost from an ancient well, then turns around and snaps Zhao Kuo’s neck.”
“Hahaha, so satisfying! The righteous sects keep insisting he’s an evil fiend who’ll bring disaster upon the world, but then he publicly exposes the enforcer elder’s human-sacrifice scandal. The whole sect erupts, and that hypocrite gets mobbed by countless ghosts right on the spot.”
“The best part is the Saintess, Chu Qinghan. She believes her Purifying Sacred Body can counter evil, but she watches Su Ji use strange energy to save his companions. Then she hears him say, ‘Let’s just make do and get along,’ and her Dao heart cracks apart.”
“Later, when the righteous alliance surrounds him, he climbs to a high place and lets out a roar. His ghost army blots out the sky and devours those so-called titans. He steps over a sea of bones and ascends to the Realm of No Return. In the end, Chu Qinghan comes to his side too and whispers, ‘In this chaotic age, you’re the only one who’s truly clear-headed, you “evil fiend.”’”
