Mysterious Resurrection: The Peddler

Chapter 529: Conflict in the Ghost Room, Split Ghost Mountain

On the second floor, the seemingly peaceful room actually hides absolute danger, because the structure of Room 486 has been dismantled to this floor. Just like the coffin shop, this is an infinite loop room.

"No matter how weak the supernatural is, as long as it is related to infinite stacking, even the captain will have to fight to the death."

Yang Jian said.

"Indeed, so you can't easily enter the rooms on the second floor, at least not in the conventional way."

In the false world, Cao Yang has figured out the key to this level: the ghost lotus lantern is placed on the table in the room, but taking away the lotus lantern will trigger an infinite loop of curse in the room, and he will never be able to leave the room again.

The correct way is to change the room from the root, because the source of the curse is Room 486, and Yang Jian happens to have the right supernatural items.

"House number? I do have one."

The lake water surged under Yang Jian's feet, and a pale hand holding a black doorplate stretched out.

"Room 707, I got it when I was in Tai O City. I didn't expect it to be the room number of Caesar Hotel."

Cao Yang took the doorplate from Yang Jian and felt a chill as soon as he touched it. The blackened doorplate revealed a weird aura, but it did not affect Cao Yang.

He walked straight forward until he reached the door of Room 486.

Then he reached out and took down the number 486 and replaced it with the number 707.

"Let the two supernatural rooms force a confrontation, and use this opportunity to enter the room and take away the lotus lantern."

Cao Yang acted quickly. After changing the door number, he did not choose to enter immediately, but took a few steps back.

The European-style door is matched with a black house number plate. Anyone in the paranormal circle can quickly determine that this is definitely a haunted room, and a very ominous one at that.

"The doorplate represents the room. If you change the doorplate to 707, the real room 707 will gradually invade the original room. However, the internal layout of the room will also change accordingly. The collision between the supernatural and the evil will make you lost if you are not careful."

About a minute later, under the gaze of several people, the paint on the old door began to peel off, and the house number 707 seemed to fade. Black liquid flowed out from it irregularly, looking like solidified blood.

"The conflict between the evil spirits has begun."

This is a signal that the conflict between Room 707 and Room 486 has already occurred. The confrontation between the supernatural often takes time, sometimes long and sometimes short. This period is also the time when Cao Yang can act.

"action."

Cao Yang opened the door and what came into view was still the scene of Room 586 on the first floor, except that all the walls were oozing black liquid and the entire room was shaking constantly, as if something was about to rush out from the walls, ceiling, and even from under the floor.

"The location of the ghost lotus lantern is in the bedroom."

Ignoring these supernatural phenomena, Cao Yang walked quickly to the bedroom, but the invasion of Room 707 was extremely fast. The layout of the bedroom had been completely changed. The bedroom now became a superposition of two supernatural rooms, and some things had been pulled into a deeper level.

"It seems that Room 707 is a bit more dangerous."

"Determine the location of the Ghost Lotus Lantern."

The transaction was opened. Cao Yang's vision suddenly changed. It was no longer a simple room, and the walls were no longer walls. Instead, they turned into layers of rusty metal railings, which looked like a cold prison. The whole room seemed to have turned into a cell to imprison ghosts.

His gaze shifted, and Cao Yang finally locked onto the location of the Ghost Lotus Lantern again: the ceiling.

Outside the room, Yang Jian opened his ghost eyes and tried to peek into the situation inside, but the ghost eyes' vision was severely disturbed and he could only barely see the outline of the living room. Moreover, the original living room was rapidly becoming decayed and old, and it would not be long before it would be completely swallowed up by Room 707.

"It seems that the horror level of Room 707 is a little higher."

Yang Jian was not worried about Cao Yang's safety, because there was a pool of blood at his feet. That was the blood lake left by Cao Yang. As long as he got the lotus lantern, he could use this pool of blood to escape at any time.

Sure enough, the pool of blood began to expand and spread, soon dyeing a large area nearby red. At the same time, the water level gradually rose, and Cao Yang's figure appeared.

"Let's go to the third floor."

The blood lake spread to the feet of Yang Jian and the other two. At this time, Wang Genquan felt like a toy at the mercy of others. However, he had no power to fight back and could only allow himself to be swallowed by the blood lake.

As soon as they arrived at the third floor, the familiar feeling of oppression came over them again. The burnt smell in the air had not yet dissipated, and it was still lingering in the space of this floor.

Through the open door, one could see that the huge mountain of corpses was slowly moving, like a person in sleep breathing steadily, rising and falling, and every movement released an exceptionally strong burnt stench.

Cao Yang said nothing, and silently fished out an axe from the blood lake. He had seen this axe before, a long time ago.

"Time has changed. I never thought that I would need this axe one day."

The axe is scarlet in color, the handle is a piece of rotten and rough wood, and the blade is covered with rust. It looks like a weathered red-painted broken wooden axe. However, it is this axe that is the key to Captain Cao Yang's career as a ghost rider, because it was once used by Peng Cheng, the person in charge who sacrificed his life to save him.

"The true use of the Ghost Axe is to chop vertically, using the crack as a medium to split a person and a ghost in half. However, the more terrifying the ghost, the greater the price to pay."

Cao Yang held the axe with a wandering look in his eyes. He was looking for cracks in the Ghost Mountain. This mountain had been burned by ghost fires and many corpses had been buried in its own blood lake. Even if it could be restored, there would inevitably be cracks.

"found it!"

The medium locked on, and Cao Yang dodged and rushed directly into room 486. The next second he climbed directly to the top of Ghost Mountain, where the number of corpses had decreased most severely, and there were jagged gaps everywhere.

"Don't split the ghost mountain, I will die!"

Liang Yuan's voice came from the bottom of the mountain, but Cao Yang ignored it. In the false world, he had already confirmed that Liang Yuan would not die after splitting the Ghost Mountain. She was just worried that her supernatural powers would be completely unbalanced.

Yang Jian knew that now was not the time to hesitate, so he chose to remain silent and not express any opinions.

"My cousin has a lot of secrets, and now she's even connected to the Caesars Hotel. If sacrificing my cousin can bring stability, it might not be worth it."

Cao Yang didn't know what Yang Jian was thinking. At this moment, he was already standing at the highest point of Ghost Mountain. The corpses here were entangled with each other, forming a tight group like a knot, stacked layer by layer.

The hand rises and the axe falls.

The countless knots of corpses that made up the Ghost Mountain broke at the same time. The mountain began to tremble violently, and then collapsed with a loud bang. Corpses fell in all directions like a tide.
