Damn it! Living Ghosts seeking Sacrificial Ghosts is like quenching thirst with poison! It's completely depraved! The terrifying part is that I've become their target.

Zhang Bin screamed angrily in his heart.

Immediately, he turned to Gao Si for advice.

Gao Si's face grew more serious than ever before. "Brother, there aren't many Cultivators on your planet, and far too few powerful ones. That's probably why it's difficult to kill Living Ghosts. After all, Living Ghosts have existed for many years—perhaps more than a thousand, or even several thousand. They have become terrifyingly powerful. Thus, I can't think of any good solution. Your only path is to grow stronger quickly and rapidly cultivate to the Condensing Seed Realm. Once you reach the Condensing Seed Realm, Hundreds of Evil Retreat, and they will no longer be able to use evil methods to control you. They can only rely on gratitude and love to manipulate you… Only then can you have your own thoughts. Otherwise, they'll control even your mind, leaving you with no path to survival, and you'll ultimately perish under the Heavenly Tribulation."

The implication was clear: Zhang Bin couldn't fight them head-on, as it would be like an egg smashing against a rock. He had to outmaneuver them. And the foundation for doing so was reaching the Seed Condensing Realm. Without it, even maneuvering would be impossible.

"Only half a year? How can I possibly cultivate to the Golden Core Realm in such a short time?" Zhang Bin's expression changed drastically as he felt an unprecedented sense of terror from the impending crisis.

"Brother, you have more than half a year," Gao Si said. "If you haven't reached the Seed Condensing Realm after six months, just pretend you know nothing and go to that woman happily. They won't suspect that you've seen through their plot, so they won't use evil methods to control you. A genius controlled by such methods loses his spiritual nature, making it difficult for him to grow stronger. You might only be able to help them endure a single Heavenly Tribulation before turning to ash—perhaps not even one. That would be a waste. Therefore, you still have time to play their game. As long as they feel they have you controlled with a beautiful woman, they'll be happy to see you grow stronger. They might even provide you with cultivation resources, using both affection and gratitude to win you over. While this is a deadly crisis, it's also your opportunity to rise. It's incredibly dangerous and thrilling, but it will also temper you."

"What if one of them suddenly wants me to help them endure a Heavenly Tribulation?" Zhang Bin asked seriously, nodding as he felt Gao Si's words made sense.

"The moment they ask you to help them endure the Heavenly Tribulation is when they have decided to abandon you. If by that time you still aren't powerful enough to contend with them, you must find a way to escape," Gao Si said. "I will prepare some treasures for you to fight Living Ghosts, as well as some special treasures for escaping. Besides, since there are Living Ghosts on your planet, there must also be a Sect that deals with ghosts. You should find an opportunity to visit such a Sect; they might be able to help you. But remember, you must not let the Living Ghosts discover you, or you will surely die. They won't let you go."

After a pause, Gao Si continued thoughtfully, "The most important thing now is that you must find a way to open your Spiritual Eye so you can see Living Ghosts. Otherwise, they'll know all your secrets, as they have likely sent Living Ghosts to watch you. After all, you can't possibly stay within the protection of the Array Plate all day. Moreover, Living Ghosts dislike being active during the day and prefer to come out at night. Although they don't particularly fear the Sun, too much light makes them uncomfortable. So, it's much safer during the day."

Living Ghosts are also afraid of Formations. That's great! Sanchahe Village is safe. Zhang Bin rejoiced internally, but a puzzled expression appeared on his face. "Open the Spiritual Eye? What's that?"

"Essentially, it's cultivating a special ocular ability that allows you to see Living Ghosts, and it also grants you X-ray vision," Gao Si explained. "I'll go buy you a Spiritual Eye Pill. After you take it, focus on cultivating the Pure Heart Mystique, and you might just develop the Spiritual Eye. You're lucky this time. Our Xuanwu Star people found a Green Planet, and the experts brought back a lot of green plants. We've started cultivating them on Xuanwu Star, and now we're beginning to see vegetation here. After all, we've been purifying the air and improving the environment for years. We're finally seeing results, but we couldn't grow anything before because we had no seeds. Now that we have plants, along with the Spiritual Medicine from that planet, various Elixirs are being refined, though they are very expensive. The Spiritual Eye Pill is one of them."

"Give me the Pill Recipe! Maybe I can make it myself," Zhang Bin said, his face full of anticipation. He had to know how to refine such a miraculous Elixir.

"Alright, let's make a deal..." Gao Si said joyfully.

This time, Gao Si's deal was simple, requiring only one hundred types of ordinary plant seeds and one thousand Spirit Stones. Clearly, Gao Si hadn't dared to reveal the plants before, fearing it would expose his secret exclusive trade with a Green Planet. Now, however, he had no such worries, as others were already buying land and using seeds from that small planet to cultivate plants.

For Zhang Bin, this was incredibly easy. However, the treasures Gao Si traded to him were exactly what he needed at this moment. This included a machine that compresses energy, which Zhang Bin needed for his Flying Saucer. The Flying Saucer used compressed energy, but it wasn't easy to develop a machine that could produce it. Therefore, it was better to trade directly with Gao Si. With this machine, he could compress coal and oil into special energy blocks. Of course, the energy converted from Gold could also be compressed into energy blocks.

If he wanted to avoid being tracked by the Living Ghosts in the future, using the Flying Saucer as his mode of transport was essential. After all, no matter how fast the Living Ghosts were, they could never catch up to a Flying Saucer.

"Brother, you still owe me a batch of Liquefaction Pills, don't forget that," Gao Si said.

"Don't worry, Gao Si, I'm keeping it in mind. Just send me the treasures I need first. I'll get your items over to you as soon as possible, including a batch of Liquefaction Pills," Zhang Bin said.

"Since you're in a hurry, I'll send the treasures to you at top speed," Gao Si replied. "For future transfers, just put them in your Space Ring. The Living Ghosts will never find out."

After the call, Zhang Bin felt greatly relieved. However, he also felt with increasing certainty that Earth was not a simple place. As his cultivation level rose, he encountered more and more terrifying existences. Now, even Living Ghosts had appeared.

In the future, my main enemy will be that terrifying Living Ghost organization, Youming. I have to survive this terrifying crisis, and ideally, annihilate every last Living Ghost! Anyone—or any ghost—that schemes against me, Zhang Bin, will be destroyed!
