Reborn As A Ghost: Time To Build My Undead Army!
Chapter 952 The Tormented Souls Of The Past-----
[Corrupted Chaotic Dungeon Core (SS Grade)]
A Dungeon Core that has been modified using Miasma and other corrupted energies, and transformed into a special artifact that can contaminate areas with miasma over time.
Contaminated areas will spawn monsters faster, and it will infect all living lifeforms into stronger and more aggressive forms. The more it slowly infects things, the more strong monsters will be created.
High chances for A+ Rank or even S Rank Monsters to appear after enough time.

"You're mine now!"
It seemed to react aggressively when things touched it or tried to drag it away. The thing was floating within its own center of gravity, so when I held it with my hands, it tried to tear them to shreds, failing miserably at that.
I considered that if it was constantly exuding this energy, then it was a perfect "Core" for my own soul, a Core of Miasma and Chaos that would constantly and passively cultivate my soul with its slow, yet seemingly endless source of energy.
And once I placed it inside my soul, it stopped aggressively spinning and remained floating in silence within the Shadow Realm inside of it.
FLUOOOSH!
Its shockwaves continued spreading, the Undead stored inside was beginning to slowly and passively bathe in the corruption, becoming slightly murky, but they absorbed it easily.
They were beginning to grow stronger… Hehehe! This is the ideal way to cultivate as a Necromancer, by both boosting my soul and also enhancing all my Undead at once.
Thank you for the gift, you dumbass Warlocks.
Ding!
[You have fully absorbed and assimilated the [Corrupted Chaotic Dungeon Core (SS Grade)] Artifact into your Soul!]
[The Artifact is constantly exuding rich Miasma and Chaotic Energies every ten minutes, feeding your Soul, your Soul Scape, your Divinity Ember, and your Undead stored inside your Shadow Realm with powerful compatible energies.]
[Your Soul growth has begun to hasten rapidly, the Cultivation of your Phantasmal Soul Psyche has taken a drastic change, beginning to strengthen rapidly.]
"Wait, Cultivation?!"
As I said that out loud, the power of the artifact started making me feel more alive than I imagined. My senses heightened, my appearance became even more life-like, and I could feel everything around me much better.
It was an exhilarating an almost addicting feeling, like I was constantly eating the tastiest and sweetest candy, this Artifact was just MADE for me!"
"So you just ate it…" Lucifer was slightly shocked. "Oh well, I should have expected this…"
"Was it tasty?!" Asked Partner, gulping her saliva.
"I didn't eat it!" I sighed, crossing my arms. "But it was an ideal artifact for my growth, so I've assimilated it into my soul… Ah, was that a bit too greedy?"
"Not really, well, we were planning on just smashing it to pieces." Emeraldine laughed. "But if it can help you, then I don't think there's a problem. Also, if you keep it within your soul, it's for the better, so it won't contaminate the world outside."
"Yeah! You're like the ideal container of all these powerful miasmic forces." Said Jonathan. "Maybe we could purify the rest of this place? I feel bad the Drakes were turned into mad monsters because of that thing."
"Sure, let me do it by absorbing all the bad miasma." I touched the ground, quickly assimilating everything.
FLUOOOSH!
In a split of a second, the entire place was cleansed… Wait, did I ever have such fast abilities at miasma absorption?
I remember being rather weak to it at first, but now I've totally assimilated it into my own being, maybe because I've already assimilated several Evil God Fragments into my soul.
"Hmph, that artifact is really good… To think these vampire bastards would make something like this." Uller commented at my side. "Oi, Maria. Are you going to do something about the guys over there though?"
"The guys?" I wondered. "Oh those guys."
Everyone hadn't paid attention, maybe they couldn't see them like I could, but there were ten ghosts sitting at the end of the room, trembling in fear after seeing us arrive.
Their bodies were glowing with black and blueish colors, they were corrupted by the Chaos yet they had continued keeping their sanity and minds.
These were most likely what I would call, Chaos Ghosts!
"Hey, you guys over there. Can you speak?"
The ghosts, who had the appearance of ancient people similar to the pharaoh, trembled, suddenly looking at me.
"T-The Chaos Embodiment, she's looking at us!"
"Eep!"
"Please don't eat our souls!"
"We are only humble Alchemists left behind here!"
"We died long ago after the Great Cataclysm…"
"Can you spare our souls?"
"Great… Cataclysm?" I asked. "Hey, Pharaoh, do you know what's that?"
"Hmmm…" The Lich appeared by my side, emerging from my shadows. "That is an even more ancient event than my own Kingdom. The Great Cataclysm has only been found within small legends. It is said to have been a time when the Gods punished humanity for their sins and killed most of them through the Calamities that ran rampart."
"Oh, so that's it… Yikes, these Gods are really monsters." I sighed. "But I somehow feel like that's not all of it, right?"
"W-What is this man talking about?"
"The Great Cataclysm… It wasn't just Calamities running rampart!"
"Those Gods you speak about…"
"They're merely the Awakened Ones that fought against the Ancient Ones…"
"When the Tower appeared in our world, there was nothing else but destruction…"
"W-We were unable to intervene, the Realms fell apart!"
"Uuwaah! The horror… Please, spare us! We don't want to see the outside world!"
"The decree of the Kings of the Void… No, NO!"
"Your world… your religion, is nothing but an illusion!"
They were going completely batshit insane. I retire what I said before, they were talking nonsense not even Uller could understand!
"Awakened Ones? Ancient Ones?" I wondered. "W-What's going on?"
"I am not sure…" The Pharaoh spoke. "But perhaps these people… I am in awe, these souls have been in here for perhaps… hundreds of thousands of years, if not millions."
"They know of things before the Ragnarök itself." Said Uller. "W-
What in the world?"
