Black Myth: You Cultivate Demonic Arts, and the Gods Pay the Price

Black Myth invades the real world, ushering in the post-mythic era. Demons become Buddhas, ghosts become gods. Monsters and demons seize divine offices, sit in temples, and harvest the people's faith. Humanity clings to life like cattle waiting for slaughter. From the start, Lin Yuan obtains a Seven-Orifice Demon Heart and the talent to transfer costs. The Seven-Orifice Demon Heart gives him exceptional talent for demonic cultivation. Cultivating demonic arts comes with unbearable costs. Cost Transfer lets him shift those costs onto the “false gods” sitting in temples. Cultivating the Fiery Demon Body means enduring the agony of being burned alive? No problem! Transfer the cost to the Kitchen God. Using the Book of Seven Arrows with Head-Nailing means losing years of your life each time? No problem! Transfer the cost to the God of Longevity. Cultivating the Blood Sea Divine Art makes your blood flow backward until your whole body turns to pus? No problem. Transfer the cost to the Buddha. The demons, inexplicably struck by disaster, come looking for trouble, only to discover that they are no match for Lin Yuan. With a thought, Lin Yuan sends demonic energy sweeping across thirty thousand miles. The demons' faces change at once, and they cry out, “You're more of a monster than we are!”
