Chapter 101 Success Limitations
Dachang City.

eight pm.

The sky is beautiful tonight, with a bright moon and few stars.

The bright moonlight shone down and illuminated the city, making Dachang City look like a city that never sleeps, especially given the already brightly lit scene.

Staff members in special uniforms were busy everywhere on the streets, and ambulances passed by from time to time, their sirens breaking the silence of the city.

The staff at the Ghost Rider headquarters were highly efficient. Upon entering the city, they restored various infrastructures, such as electricity, and restored the city's basic operations to normal in the shortest possible time.

at the same time.

On an open space on the outskirts of Dachang City.

In the makeshift command room, Wang Xiaoming looked at Yang Jian with a strange expression, his gaze sweeping over Yang Jian as if he were looking at some special object.

"You actually came back to life. Although I had a vague guess when I watched the video that you were very likely to succeed by using the supernatural collision between the three vengeful ghosts, I was still surprised by your resurrection."

Wang Xiaoming looked at Yang Jian and said, "Could you explain your method in detail? Although this may be your secret, such cases of the dead coming back to life are indeed very valuable for research!"

"I'm not here to discuss my resurrection. I want to know what happened in Dachang City after I hanged myself, and who handled the starving ghost incident?"

Yang Jian said with a cold expression.

At this moment, he was emitting a faint stench of death. If you pulled up Yang Jian's clothes, you could clearly see that his body was covered with many livid spots.

Yang Jian's resurrection was imperfect.

Because of the headless ghost, his body did not completely disappear into the ghost mirror like Zhang Wei did when he was resurrected. Only his head was swallowed up and then resurrected in the ghost mirror, but his body did not come back to life.

In his current state, even Yang Jian himself is unsure of what he is. He has become an anomaly, existing between life and death, neither a living person nor a vengeful ghost.

However, the final result seems to be good.

The headless ghost figure completely crashed during its collision with the ghost mirror. Even the ghost eyes it controlled no longer had the revival energy it had shown before, and several ghost eyes were transferred to the headless ghost figure's body.

Upon his resurrection, Yang Jian immediately noticed the anomaly in Dachang City. The bluish-gray haze that had enveloped the entire city had vanished. He then returned to Guanjiang Residential Area with the Ghost Mirror and learned about the current situation of a part of Dachang City from Jiang Yan and others.

However, Jiang Yan and the others, being ordinary people, did not know much. They called Liu Xiaoyu but still couldn't get a clear answer. So Yang Jian went directly to the temporary office of the headquarters in the suburbs to find out what had happened.

"While you were hanging yourself, headquarters brought in an outside helper named Li Hui. He was very capable and directly solved the root cause of the starving ghost incident. You know what happened next."

Before Wang Xiaoming could even speak in response to Yang Jian's question, Zhao Jianguo spoke up first.

This is no secret; many people know it, and there's no need to hide it.

"He actually managed to solve the starving ghost incident all by himself. It seems that this ghost tamer named Li Hui is indeed exceptionally strong."

Hear the words.

Yang Jian's expression shifted slightly, and he secretly memorized the name Li Hui.

Even now, he only believed that he was qualified to face the starving ghost head-on, unlike before when he could only run away when he met him.

However, Yang Jian felt that with his current strength, there was a high probability that he would not be able to successfully imprison the starving ghost. He would have to rely on the supernatural item in the secret room in the basement of No. 7 Middle School to completely nail the starving ghost to death.

Next.

After exchanging a few words with Wang Xiaoming and the others, Yang Jian ended the conversation and then turned and left.

During the conversation, Wang Xiaoming tried to get information out of him through his words, not only showing curiosity about his supposed resurrection after hanging himself, but also subtly hinting at the existence of the human skin paper.

Yes.

At least in Yang Jian's view, Wang Xiaoming seemed to have sensed the existence of the human skin paper, but he probably didn't know much about it, only that there was such an unknown entity beside him.

"Ok?"

Here.

Yang Jian, who had just returned to Guanjiang Community, noticed several figures standing at the entrance of his building. These were people he knew well – the parents of his classmate, Wang Shanshan.

At this moment, Wang Bin was carrying Wang Shanshan on his back. The moment he saw Yang Jian's figure appear, he rushed over as if he had found a lifeline, saying:

"Yang, Yang Jian, you're finally back! Look at Shanshan! She... she looks like..."

Whether it was from exhaustion or some other reason, Wang Bin's tone was incoherent, and there was a hint of bewilderment in his words, as if he had encountered something he didn't want to believe.

"Let me see."

As he spoke, Yang Jian gestured for Wang Bin to put Wang Shanshan down from his back, and then he began to examine Wang Shanshan's body.

At this moment, Wang Shanshan seemed no different from before. Her face was still pale and bloodless, and there was no trace of the smell of a corpse on her body. Although her body was cold, it was not stiff, and her skin was still soft and elastic. She did not look like she was dead, but rather like she was asleep.

Wang Shanshan's existence is very special.

In a sense, she was actually Yang Jian's ghost slave.

"Ghost slaves exist by relying on the supernatural power of the source ghost. I hanged myself before, so Wang Shanshan also fell into a deep sleep, making people mistakenly believe that she was dead. In fact, she just lost some kind of power that allowed her to survive."

Think of this.

Yang Jian grabbed Wang Shanshan's wrist and examined her closely.

On her wrist, the eye pattern had faded to almost disappearing; it was a mark left by the Ghost Eye.

Immediately afterwards, a red light emerged from Yang Jian's hand. When he released his hand again, the eye pattern on Wang Shanshan's wrist became clear again, emitting a faint red light.

He left a portion of the supernatural power of the Ghost Eye in Wang Shanshan's body.

Almost the instant Yang Jian finished doing all this, Wang Shanshan, who had been 'dead,' suddenly opened her eyes, sat up from the ground, and came back to life...

at the same time.

the other side.

In a strange, supernatural space.

Li Hui frowned deeply as he looked at the scene before him.

At this moment, there were countless figures in this supernatural space. Most of them looked exactly like Li Hui, but some of them were ghosts that resembled middle-aged women with slightly illusory figures.

In the supernatural collision just now, Li Hui used the ghostly figures generated by the ghost painting to suppress the second, third, fourth... and other evil spirits that appeared one after another.

But every time he successfully suppressed a vengeful ghost, a new one would appear, also in the form of a middle-aged woman, with the same illusory figure, taking stiff steps, and approaching Li Hui's location in a strange way.

"This vengeful ghost, without a physical form, possesses a similar ability to infinitely restart, much like the ghost messengers. It is extremely complex!"

For a while.

Li Hui's thoughts quickly became active.

"The suppressed vengeful spirit is most likely not the true source. Could it be that this vengeful spirit is similar to the ghost messenger, and this supernatural space is actually the true source, while the middle-aged woman is just a manifestation of some kind of supernatural phenomenon, which is why she cannot be imprisoned?"

He was trying to connect the vengeful ghost in front of him with the ghost messenger. Of course, he wasn't trying to connect their abilities, but rather he was thinking about whether he could imprison this vengeful ghost in the same way he imprisoned the ghost messenger.

Every evil spirit must have a source. Once the source is imprisoned, all other supernatural phenomena can be resolved.

Just like a ghost messenger.

Its source is the Ghost Realm. As long as the Ghost Realm is suppressed, the ghost messengers will naturally be restricted and will not be able to be imprisoned within the Ghost Realm.

Li Hui wondered if the vengeful ghost in front of him, who resembled a middle-aged woman, was also like that.

Because he could truly sense that those vengeful ghosts had been successfully imprisoned, and the supernatural forces within him had completely subsided.

In this situation, even if someone truly possessed the ability to restart, they shouldn't be able to use it. However, this situation has actually occurred, so Li Hui believes that the vengeful spirits he suppressed are not the true source.

With this in mind, Li Hui began to change his course of action.

The hazy, gray ash drifted in the air, further assimilating this eerie space. Not only that, but even the eeriness of the bus added to the ghostly realm of the ghost painting.

It wasn't just the ability to suppress vengeful spirits; the bus's ability to transcend the real world and the supernatural realm was also superimposed on the ashes floating everywhere.

In his view, this supernatural space is very similar to the ghost realm, both being manifestations of the supernatural. Like the dream space of ghost dreams, it can be considered a special ghost realm, except that it belongs to the realm of consciousness.

In general, anything supernatural can be invaded by other supernatural entities.

With the supernatural imagery of the ghost painting and the bus overlapping and permeating each other, the already unreal supernatural space became even more illusory at this moment, and the original black and white colors disappeared, turning completely into gray.

This is the most primal collision between the supernatural and the supernatural.

But obviously.

The terror of vengeful ghosts is far less than that of 70% of the ghost paintings and 30% of the buses. The supernatural space has been completely eroded and gradually assimilated by the ghost paintings.

That's when.

The newly appeared vengeful ghost was attacked once again.

Several figures identical to Li Hui surrounded the vengeful ghost, blocking its advance, and then grabbed its body, suppressing it.

The figures' grab was like the impact of a supernatural bus. The middle-aged woman-like ghost was not actually that terrifying and could not withstand such an attack. Its supernatural power instantly subsided.

"Success?"

suddenly.

Li Hui discovered that the vengeful ghost had not reappeared after being suppressed for a long time, which proved that his guess was true.

The source of the vengeful ghosts is very likely this consciousness-based supernatural space. Those vengeful ghosts resembling middle-aged women are just manifestations of the supernatural. Now that the supernatural space has been eroded, the vengeful ghosts can no longer restart.

And that's not all.

Under the supernatural influence controlled by Li Hui, although he couldn't control this supernatural space, he was able to leave this haunted place.

next moment.

The scene before Li Hui shattered like a mirror, and then his consciousness began to return to his body, where he saw the bedroom on the second floor of that old Republican-era house.

The bedroom was still dimly lit, the furniture looked very old, and most of the paint had peeled off. In addition, the tiles on the walls, the chandelier, and other items were all severely damaged.

Inside the room, he still held the rouge box in one hand and the woodcutter's knife in the other, maintaining a chopping motion.

The scene inside the room was different from the scene before his consciousness was pulled into that supernatural space.

The medium for using the machete seems to have been interrupted.

The middle-aged woman who was sitting next to Li Hui combing her hair in the previous media footage has disappeared. Instead, a ghost with a slightly illusory figure has appeared in the room, standing there motionless, looking as if it has completely crashed, like a projected image.

Besides.

A strange figure appeared in the room.

It was an elderly man who looked to be around seventy or eighty years old. He was wearing a black retro long gown and was lying on his back on the slightly old wooden bed. He seemed to be asleep and looked very peaceful.

But upon closer inspection, something unusual will be found.

Because the old man's exposed skin was covered with marks of varying sizes, and the marks were generally dark purplish-red, which were obviously lividity caused by the accumulation and sedimentation of blood after death!
In such a strange place.

An old man covered in lividity lay on a wooden bed not far from him. If this scene were to happen to an ordinary person, they would probably be terrified on the spot. Even Li Hui was deeply attracted and kept looking at the strange old man.

no doubt.

That old man is a vengeful ghost!
What's even more terrifying is that the other party wasn't in Li Hui's ghost domain. The hazy ashes spread over, and in the ghost domain's perception, the wooden bed was empty. There was no old man lying on it; there was only accumulated dust.

"It doesn't appear in the ghost realm, which is consistent with this ancient house. Could this strange old man be the source of this ancient house?"

Thinking.

Li Hui began to probe.

With a wave of his hand, a figure appeared in the room; it was one of the ghosts he had brought out from the Ghost Post Office.

Although the superimposed human figure created by the ghost painting possesses the same supernatural abilities as Li Hui himself, it is not suitable for this kind of test because the superimposed human figure does not have the intelligence of a living person.
