The black shadow floated there, exuding a cold and sinister aura.
It was one of the Stone Statue Ghosts on Nameless Peak, somewhat similar to the evil spirits found on Ghost Teeth Peak of Spirit River. The main difference is that the evil spirits are not intelligent nor are they large.
Instead, as the Stone Statue Ghosts grow, they become more intelligent and can even practice their own form of cultivation. In terms of strength and power, they are not weaker than evil spirits, but they are more cunning and sly.
Once they reach a certain level of power, they develop a strange divine ability that allows them to possess or control humans. By turning into an inner demon, they can kill without leaving any traces, maliciously draining the blood of their victims.
Different methods can be used to cultivate different types of Stone Statue Ghosts. One reason the Blood Flow Sect is known as the Demon Sect is because of the demonic Stone Statue Ghosts they cultivate.
