Starting from the folklore forum, making up town objects

Chapter 380 Tearing Apart Ghosts
As the figure walked out from the second floor, Chen Xin frowned.

Based solely on the sticker's perspective, he couldn't determine whether the ghost slave's so-called 'master' was the one he was looking for.

So he activated the Netherworld Seal, came to the two-story building, stood beside the ghost slave master, and sized up the man.

Just then, the man seemed to notice something and looked in Chen Xin's direction.

Although his eyes were unfocused, he was clearly looking for something.

To Chen Xin's surprise, he walked two more floors into the third floor, at which point the man's gaze finally shifted away.

Looking at the man's profile, Chen Xin could not see the man's actual situation from the Netherworld, but he was 80% sure that this was the 'assimilation' he was looking for!
As for the other 20% possibility, it's possible that the ghost slave's 'master' possesses an ability similar to the clown's 'hat trick,' allowing him to perceive some superficial aspects of the underworld.

Just as Chen Xin was sizing up the man who seemed to have been 'assimilated', the Ghost Skin Master below had already recounted the situation and raised the two stickers high.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Xin saw the scorpion tail protruding from behind the man.

Scorpion Tail clipped the two stickers together and placed them in the man's hand.

Then, right in front of Chen Xin, that familiar thin red thread emerged from the man's palm and tied the two stickers together tightly.

Once the red line disappeared, Chen Xin lost control of the two stickers, leaving him with only the ability to attach his viewpoint.

Just like what Illusion experienced before, exactly the same!
However, this also clearly tells Chen Xin that the so-called 'master' is actually 'assimilation'!
Chen Xin glanced at the scorpion tail and suddenly thought of the Ghost Slave Five Lineages' shell plan.

Now that 'assimilation' has entered the world, has the Ghost Slave Five Lineages' plan for the physical body been implemented?
There is no Ghost Scorpion lineage among the Five Lineages, so the scorpion tail just now... could it be that it assimilated all the Nine Lineage Ancestors?

While Chen Xin was secretly amazed, Assimilation was still studying the two stickers.

Chen Xin was not worried about the two stickers being assimilated.

Wang Xinghui only exchanged two stickers for his wife and daughter. Two of them were placed at the Sanshan base as 'coordinates', while Wang Xinghui kept the other two.

When Wang Xinghui transferred his wife and daughter to the Sanshan base, the two stickers he had were destroyed, leaving only these two stickers that were transferred from the Sanshan base to Wang Xinghui's home.

Therefore, even if 'assimilation' mastered the sticker's own abilities, it would not be able to use the sticker to transfer itself to the Sanshan base, unless Wang Xinghui exchanged two more stickers for his wife and daughter.

However, the power to exchange is in Chen Xin's hands. If 'Assimilation' wants to go, it depends on whether Chen Xin is willing to let it go.

Looking at the assimilation, Chen Xin began to ponder.

Now that the traces of 'assimilation' have been found, the next step is to implement the 'contact assimilation' plan.

When 'Assimilation' first entered the Pot Heaven Space, Chen Xin was only in shock and didn't realize that it was actually a great opportunity.

Since 'Assimilation' can open another entrance to the Pot Heaven Space, Chen Xin can naturally release 'Assimilation' from his entrance as well.

Chen Xin's entrance is in the palm of his hand. If the "Complete Collection of Suppressing Objects" is placed at the entrance, what will happen as soon as "assimilation" occurs?
Chen Xin failed to seize the opportunity back then, but now he wants to create one, an opportunity for 'assimilation' to re-enter the Pot Heaven Space.

But things are different now. Assimilation has taken on its own form, and whether it can proceed according to Chen Xin's plan remains to be seen.

As Chen Xin's eyes flickered, he suddenly noticed that Assimilation had opened its mouth.

A black, viscous substance shot out from 'Assimilation's' mouth and landed on the palm of His hand holding the sticker.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Xin saw clearly what the black thing was.

A leech!
The moment he saw the leech, information about the Ghost Leech lineage of the Nine Ghost Slave Lineages appeared in his mind.

The Nine Veins of Ghost Slaves consist of five veins: Heart, Eyes, Skin, Bone, and Body; and four more: Scorpion, Spider, Leech, and Paper.

The Ghost Scorpion and Ghost Spider are active outside more often, while the Ghost Leech and Ghost Paper lineages have very few members and are very mysterious.

Especially ghosts.

From the memories of the Ghost Heart Clan Master, Chen Xin had only seen the Clan Master of the Ghost Paper Clan. He even doubted that the Ghost Paper Clan had any other members.

The Ghost Leech is better than the Ghost Paper. It has a large number of members, but its activities are mainly outside of Great Xia, but abroad.

The internationally famous vampires were actually created by the Onihi, a lineage of the Onihi organization.

Those people abroad who either hate or worship vampires have no idea that the vampire progenitor they hate or worship is actually the ancestor of the Ghost Slave Ghost Leech lineage!

As for why the Ghost Leech lineage doesn't cause trouble in the Great Xia, it's naturally because there are too many factions and too many powerful individuals in the Great Xia; if one isn't careful, they could be killed.

In other countries, the progenitor of vampires can even gain the support of more radical ordinary people, and can openly hold parties in certain locations. Some high-ranking officials from other countries are even secretly contacting vampires, wanting to become one of them.

If this happened in Great Xia, the Bureau of Investigation would have shown the Ghost Leech Clan what it means to be instantly killed the moment they show their faces.

It now seems that the patriarch of the Hiruzen lineage, who is revered as the progenitor of vampires abroad, has probably become part of the 'assimilation' process.

However, what is the purpose of 'assimilation' spitting out the leech?
As Chen Xin frowned, he noticed a bloodline suddenly appearing on the black leech's body.

"Blood?"

Chen Xin looked at the two stickers that were being pressed down by the leech and immediately realized what was going on!
After the dummy paper cutout splits into stickers, in order to create a sticker for a specific target, you need to stick the sticker on the target's body.

In this way, the sticker can obtain the target's birth date and time and other information.

This naturally includes the target's blood information.

But how could Chen Xin have imagined that the negligible amount of blood consumed in making the target sticker would become the breakthrough point for 'assimilation'!
Looking at the ghost leech, Chen Xin did not take action to capture the leech and destroy it in the underworld.

As far as he knew, once the leech obtained blood, it could track the blood's owner, similar to the ability of the cloth dog.

But just like with the cloth dog, having the ability to hunt and actually being able to hunt are two different things.

The blood obtained from the leech came from Wang Xinghui's wife and daughter, who were currently stationed at the Three Mountains of the Underworld.

Even if the leeches could use their abilities to locate the target, they would still need to do what Chen Xin did: release two hundred cloth dogs and have them led by crows to conduct a thorough search.

This is no simple project.

However, assimilation is currently the only way to find the location of the underworld.

Sure enough, the 'assimilation' then summoned the leader of the Ghost Leech lineage, threw his own Ghost Leech at the leader, and shared the blood information within it.

Immediately afterwards, the Ghost Leech Master left, passing down the blood information he had obtained layer by layer.

It's likely that before long, all members of the Ghost Leech lineage will have to venture into the Netherworld to explore. Nobody knows how many people will die in that process.

Chen Xin wasn't worried about the other party finding the Three Mountains of the Underworld, but the existence of 'assimilation' was still a rather thorny issue.

If it were merely a ghost slave organization, Chen Xin could simply tell them the location of the Three Mountains headquarters, ensuring they would never return.

But 'assimilation' won't work; His abilities are too bizarre and powerful.

Looking at 'assimilation', Chen Xin felt he shouldn't hesitate any longer. The general plan in his mind instantly took shape and was finalized!
……

"I, Zhang Ba, am willing to serve you as my master!"

The sudden sound startled Jin Sui, who was standing to the side.

She turned her head and looked at Muscle King.

At this moment, Muscle Master was kneeling on the ground, drenched in sweat. On his face, Jin Sui saw weakness and paleness, excitement and blush, and... piety!
Is MuscleBoo being manipulated?

Why is this happening?

With a sense of vigilance, Jin Sui followed the direction of Muscle Master's kneeling and looked towards the figure on the second floor.

A pair of indifferent, blood-red eyes appeared in her vision, and gradually, all that remained in Jin Sui's field of vision were those eyes.

Her eyes gradually turned bloodshot, her heart began to beat faster, and her fair skin turned red in the blink of an eye, like a crab being put into a steamer.

His body temperature, which had been somewhat cold due to the evil spirits within him for many years, rose instantly.

This strange feeling was just the beginning.

Jin Sui felt her skin begin to itch, and the hair on her skin seemed to turn into countless legs, trying to carry her skin away from her body.

Inside her body, the bones seemed to want to pierce through the flesh and blood, to leave this body that did not belong to them.

Even the ghost that had been with her for ten years was being expelled from his body.

Throughout this process, the evil spirit within the body remained completely still!

It's as if... he's already dead.

Just as Jin Sui was being tormented by this uncomfortable feeling to the point of feeling like she was about to explode, she remembered the muscle-bound man from earlier. She remembered that massive body that had suddenly knelt down.

A sudden inspiration struck her, and her knees buckled, causing her to kneel down.

In an instant, all suffering vanished as if it had never existed.

Heavy breathing came from Jin Sui's mouth, and sweat was seeping out of her body like it was free.

But at that very moment, a sense of piety suddenly arose in Jin Sui's heart, a piety toward the figure on the second floor.

Jin Sui completely forgot why she was in such pain. She forgot her disbelief when she saw Muscle Man kneeling, and she forgot her suspicion about the figure on the second floor.

All she remembered was that it was because of her kneeling that the person on the second floor helped her escape her misery.

Without him, she might have died long ago.

"Jin Sui, I am willing to serve you as my master!"

Fu Yuexia, the former Shadow Envoy, nodded in satisfaction upon seeing this scene.

Unlike Jin Sui and Ji Ba, who had never seen the scene of the divine messenger, she had.

But it was precisely because she had seen him that her faith in this master of the Ghost Slave became even more devout.

When the divine messenger descends, he emits an aura.

That aura would intimidate all the divine messengers present, but it would only appear during the process of receiving them.

She used to be obsessed with sensing the fleeting presence of adults.

But now, standing next to this adult, he can constantly sense that aura that makes him tremble!
This is the kind of adult she wants to protect!

The ghost servants standing nearby, seeing the expressions of the divine messengers, wore expressions of disdain that seemed to come naturally. However, when they looked at the figure on the second floor, their expressions also turned fanatical.

Just then, the smile on the face of the Ghost Skin Clan Master, who was acting as the spokesperson for the Yang Generation, suddenly froze.

He saw the figure on the second floor who hadn't shown much emotion until he suddenly turned his head to look at his location and shot out three scorpion tails.

"What is Master doing?"

Although the Ghost Skin Clan Master was puzzled, he did not make any move.

Just then, he suddenly felt his skin being ripped off.

Literally, it's like having a piece of clothing taken away from you.

Only a mangled, bloody body remained on the spot.

Swish!
The three scorpion tails finally arrived and stung his back.

The Ghost Skin Master stiffly turned his head to look, and saw that the three scorpion tails had pierced his skin.

No, it was skin from one of his legs.

As for the other leathers...

Following the direction from which the scorpion tail shot out again, Ghost Skin Master looked toward the location of Shadow Envoy Fu Yuexia.

There, a figure with sieve-like eyes stood behind Fu Yuexia.

With one hand, he pulled out a black mass from the shadow behind Fu Yuexia.

The black object vanished from the figure's hand in an instant, along with the figure itself.

At this moment, the three scorpion tails finally arrived at their target location.

"what is that……"

Pfft!
The Ghost Skin Master's eyes rolled back, and he fell backward.

At this moment, 'assimilation', which had failed twice in a row, suddenly spoke up.

"Everyone, stand downstairs."

Without any hesitation, all the Ghost Slaves' lineage leaders and ordinary members, along with Muscle Tyrant and Golden Ear who had just knelt down, a total of over a hundred people, filled the courtyard below the 'Assimilation' area.

During this process, the figure appeared three times, snatching away the evil spirits from the three people's bodies.

Assimilation watched this scene, two of the three scorpion tails behind it plunged into the ground, while its body was lifted up by the scorpion tails and suspended in mid-air.

Everyone looked on and assumed that 'Assimilation' was waiting for that figure to reappear.

What no one noticed was that from the two scorpion tails that were 'assimilated' into the ground, hundreds of red threads emerged and connected to the soles of the feet of all the ghost slaves and divine messengers.

They didn't have to wait long.

Soon, the scorpion tail behind 'Assimilation' moved, transforming into a blur as it lunged at one of the ghost slave members.

Halfway there, a figure suddenly appeared behind the ghost slave member.

Despite the fact that the prediction had been successful, the figure still grabbed the ghost slave member and pulled a ghost from his body.

At this moment, the scorpion's tail was still five meters away from that figure.

It seems that 'assimilation' has failed again.

This caused the resolve of those weak-willed lower-level ghost slaves to waver.

A master who cannot protect his servants, a master who is not so invincible, seems to be just like that.
With the escape of the first ghost slave member, the other ghost slave members began to stir.

But before that figure could make a move, the clan leader to whom these ghost slaves belonged had already killed him.

Compared to the lower-level members of the ghost slave clan, the ghost slave leaders' faith in their masters is unwavering.

They would not complain even if they were to die for their master!

After that, one by one, the ghost slaves had their inner demons torn apart by that figure, while the 'assimilation' process was 'exhausting them'.

……

Jin Sui remained on guard, wary of the masked man.

That ability to appear and disappear unpredictably, and the ability to pull out the evil spirits from the target's body with a mere touch, terrified her.

But as the saying goes, what you fear most is what will happen.

Just as Jin Sui was on guard, she saw the figure descending from mid-air.

As Jin Sui watched the Ghost Slave Master retract his three scorpion tails, before her doubts could be answered, she felt something appear beside her.

By the time she figured it out, a hand had already landed on her shoulder.

Feeling the sharp point piercing her shoulder from her palm, Jin Sui tried to use the ghostly energy within her to fight back, but found that the ghostly energy within her had once again entered a state of 'feigned death'.

Jin Sui finally understood why those whose ghosts were torn apart by hand did not put up any resistance.

It's not that they don't resist, it's that they simply can't resist!

So, is this being who dared to make a move in front of the Lord of Ghost Slaves also an 'adult'?

It seems that only this explanation can prove why the Lord of Ghost Slaves was powerless against him.

In an instant, Jinsui gave up resisting.

She waited for a full half minute, but the hand remained on her shoulder without making any movement.

Just as she was wondering, the Lord of Ghost Slaves had already walked up to her.

It was at this moment that she saw the dozens of faint red threads emerging from the body of the Ghost Slave Master.

At the other end of the red thread was the figure beside her.

……

P.S.: There will be more updates later, I'll post them then.
