   The Myriad Souls Banner refines evil spirits, controls corpses and puppets, cultivates both Yin and Yang, is a mortal cultivation story, has no system, is not a wish-fulfillment novel, both protagonists and antagonists are intelligent, and the characters are complex and three-dimensional, not stereotypical. Worth reading for veteran readers tired of mindless wish-fulfillment novels.
