The Venomous Hook of the Evil Ghost

His spiritual roots were ripped out, his meridians severed, and his flesh turned into ingredients for alchemy... Born as twins without even names, they became stepping stones for the Yan family's cultivation.

The elder brother died at seven. His bones were dumped in the mass grave behind the mountain.

The younger brother died at nineteen, thin as a rail, breathing his last in the dead of night.

Then came the fourteenth day after death, the night the dead returned.

The nineteen-year-old boy rose from his corpse.

The living dead, who had remained nameless until his final breath, crawled out of the mass grave and dug an old skull, battered by wind and rain, out from among the bones.

Holding the bones, he rasped, "Big brother."

A century later.

The baleful ghost Gou Wen paid a visit in the dead of night.

In a single night, from newly initiated Foundation Establishment cultivators to mighty Nascent Soul masters, 137 members of the Yan cultivation family were poisoned to death by the baleful ghost.

.

The countless righteous cultivators called Gou Wen a demonic heretic, wary of the poison in his hands that could instantly kill even powerful cultivators. Countless wanted posters were issued to hunt him down.

Meanwhile, the demonic path, acting on the Demon Lord's orders, searched far and wide for the baleful ghost, hoping to invite him to cultivate together in the Demon Palace.

Whether he was loved or hated, admired or feared, Gou Wen didn't care in the slightest.

The pale poison cultivator, named after a poisonous weed from the mortal world, had held a child's skull in his hands day after day for a hundred years. Wherever there were wondrous herbs of heaven and earth, that was where he went.

1. This synopsis was screenshotted and archived on May 20, 2026.

2. This is a xianxia cultivation story, with a male protagonist who is the receiving partner. The protagonist is exceptionally beautiful, very powerful, but physically weak, cold, and slow to understand his feelings. It has harem-like appeal, multiple one-sided crushes, and love-triangle drama, but ends with a one-on-one pairing. The protagonist only returns one person's feelings. I'm still working on the outline; I'll add the pairing to the synopsis once it's decided.

3. I'm a hopeless romantic with poor writing skills, and can only write in plain language. This is my first cultivation story, and I'll do my best to make it good. If it's not to your taste, let's part on good terms. I wish you all happiness every day.
