Chen Miao thought back over how he had dealt with the kimono ghost.
Of the seven soul bodies that had not yet become vengeful ghosts, he had performed the Transcendence Rite for six.
If each counted for two qian of yin virtue, that made one tael and two qian.
Then there was the kimono ghost itself, which could have been worth five qian of yin virtue at most.
So, of those two taels of yin virtue, had roughly three qian come from helping Zhang Xiaoxue return to her body?
Moreover, helping Zhang Xiaoxue had also earned him a skill-related reward. Clearly, the rewards for helping her were greater than those for delivering a soul body that had not yet become a vengeful ghost.
This counted as a new discovery.
As for Making Demon Ghosts, Chen Miao wore a strange expression after reading it.
"Ghosts from the Island Nation?"
These so-called yōkai were created by using special methods to transform ordinary soul bodies into forms unique to the Island Nation.
For instance, the Three-Eyed Ghost Chen Miao had seen was one kind of yōkai.
And Making Demon Ghosts contained more than just that one kind. It included plenty of names Chen Miao had heard before!
[River Child (Kappa)] [Snow Woman (Yuki-onna)] [Tengu (Tengu)] [Bone Woman (Hone-on

This surprised Chen Miao.
But on second thought, it made sense. After all, zombies were also frequently mentioned in Great Xia's films and television shows.
The method for creating yōkai was a sacrificial ritual.
With a primary soul, certain specific materials, and sacrificial offerings, one could create a yōkai through an altar.
This method did not succeed every time.
