Guanjiang Residential Area, Dachang City.

At 5 p.m., Yan Li rushed to an office under Zhang Wei's father's name.

Pushing open the door, Link and Yang Jian had already prepared cutting tools, and several pure gold imprisonment containers piled up next to them were quite eye-catching.

The gold alone is already incredibly valuable, not to mention the several vengeful ghosts imprisoned inside.

As for the occasional strange collision sounds, Yan Li subconsciously ignored them.

Even the most terrifying ghosts are no match for the most wicked ghosts.

The largest golden coffin held a ghost infant; two golden body bags held a ghost that summons people and a gambling ghost, respectively; and two golden boxes held a parchment and a red gambling ticket, respectively.

The supernatural influence on the gambling tickets was disappearing, and in order to save gold resources, Link simply locked the red tickets in the gold box.

Yan Li stared at the headless shadow with five red lights flashing beneath Yang Jian's feet, his hands clenched into fists, his whole body trembling with excitement.

Link's words are true!

Yang Jian successfully controlled the second vengeful ghost, greatly alleviating its resurrected state and allowing it to live longer.

Yan Li cautiously approached Link, bending down to ask, "Mr. Link, do you still stand by your word? If you can let me live longer, I, Yan Li, will entrust my worthless life to your hands. I'll go through fire and water without batting an eye!"

Yan Li's posture was very humble, as if he had returned to his days as a plumber, anxiously anticipating asking his boss for work.

He desperately wanted to live, not just because of his body's survival instinct.

More importantly, his continued existence brings a constant stream of wealth to his family.

He is a traditional man who is willing to give up everything to provide a good life for his wife and children.

Link smirked: "Of course it counts. Today's work is dangerous, so we'll see how you perform later."

"Don't worry, Mr. Lin, anyone who wants to harm you will have to step over my dead body first!"

His initial arrogance followed by his obsequiousness made Yang Jian burst into laughter.

Link urged, "Don't worry about that for now. Yang Jian, open the coffin. You use the ghost blood to subdue the ghost infant inside. Remember not to use too much ghost blood, three liters is enough."

Yan Li nodded hurriedly, as if his loyalty was written all over his face.

With a commotion, a crack was cut into the golden coffin, and dark blue mist eagerly rushed out.

The ghost realm of the ghost baby.

Fortunately, Yan Li reacted quickly and smeared the ghost blood he had gathered in his palm onto the surface, preventing the ghost baby from escaping.

"I came, I saw, I recorded."

Link didn't sit idle either; he took the opportunity to record the supernatural phenomena of the ghost blood again, and then nodded to Yang Jian.

Under Yan Li's puzzled and surprised gaze, the headless ghostly figure behind Yang Jian stood up and walked straight to Link.

Without a sound or a trace of blood, Link's right arm was severed at the elbow.

It felt so smooth, like disassembling a delicate doll rather than removing a limb.

Of course, the apprentice ghost had already been transferred to Link's chest beforehand, so the hand was just an ordinary arm, at most imbued with a lot of the apprentice ghost's eerie aura.

Yan Li was furious and shouted, "Yang Jian, what have you done? Without President Lin, how will we...?"

Link said calmly, "Do your job well; it's part of the plan too."

Yan Li silently shut his mouth, his heart filled with inexplicable horror, and could only silently tell himself:

This is the price to control the second vengeful ghost. Yang Jian's shadow has no head, and Link and President Lin also have no right hand. This makes perfect sense.

"It truly is a cruel age of the supernatural..."

Before long, the golden coffin was completely opened, revealing the ghost infant inside, which was being controlled by the ghost's blood.

The ghost infant still looked like a child. Due to the limited amount of ghost blood, it only condensed into a thin layer on its body. It still had a slight strength to struggle. A pair of pupil-less, pitch-black eyes swept over the three people present, as if holding a grudge.

Link didn't care at all, after all, the cold ghost infant would soon turn into a warm elixir for advancement.

He placed his right arm on the ghost baby: "Infuse this into your ghost blood."

"Yes."

Yan Li nodded and complied, carrying out this bizarre operation.

When Link's right arm merged with the ghost blood, something miraculous happened. The suppressive force of the ghost blood suddenly increased, causing the ghost infant's body to shrink continuously. After letting out an unwilling roar, it merged into a pool of blood.

Through the reflection, one can vaguely see the bluish-black ghost infant within.

Link collected the ghost blood into a thermos, tightened it, and then said to Yang Jian, "It's 5:20 now, and night is about to fall. We'll just take the ghost that summons people. You hide the rest and open the Ghost Domain to take us to Huanggang Village."

Yang Jian was in a good state at the moment and agreed without thinking. The ghost domain enveloped the entire room, hiding what needed to be hidden, and the rest turned into a red line that soared into the sky.

In the ghost realm, Link and his two companions were somewhat dazed.

Space seemed to freeze, and the surrounding environment began to twist and recede in a bizarre way.

Link felt like he had been thrown into a washing machine, and everything he perceived seemed to be swirling and colliding wildly in a vortex.

"Are you kidding me? We're back?"

Yang Jian glanced at the office clock, which pointed to 5:20, and his expression was one of extreme shock.

This was clearly the moment before they prepared the ghost potion and were about to leave.

If his memory serves him right, he should have been driving Ghost Domain across Dachang City and into Huanggang Village two minutes ago!

Yan Li asked in surprise, "What's going on? Yang Jian brought us back? Do we need to drive there?"

"The range has been restarted; it must be waiting for us."

Link slammed his fist into the wall, his superhuman strength grinding spiderweb-like cracks into the surface.

Upon hearing this word, Yang Jian recalled the few words Link had written in his suicide note, and felt a sense of powerlessness. This ghost was extremely terrifying and there was no way to fight it off.

No one could have imagined that Zhao Kaiming would arrive with the wishing ghost in just one day.

It's like they're rushing to be reborn!

Link looked at the pure gold thermos in his hand, thankful that he had developed a cautious personality in the world of Lord of Mysteries.

Thanks to its excellent sealing performance, the gold thermos was not affected by any supernatural phenomena, and the ghost medicine inside was not restarted.

This is the best news.

However, the ghost medicine has an expiration date. After 24 hours, the ghost blood and the apprentice ghost's supernatural power will become ineffective, and the ghost baby will reappear in the form of a vengeful ghost.

This is probably the purpose of the wishing ghost; it doesn't kill people, but just stalls for time so that the ghost medicine will take effect.

Link quickly said, "Charge! Its restart range isn't large; as long as we can get out, we'll be fine."

Yang Jian, with a grim face, activated the Ghost Domain once more. A flash of red light, and it soared into the sky.

After some time, the two returned to the office, both looking quite grim.

This time it was even more outrageous; the clock on the wall was set to go back to 4:40.

Yan Li isn't here!

Link knew that the wishing ghost had arrived in Dachang City, and was even around Guanjiang Community, and was unwilling to let the ghost baby enter Huanggang Village.

"My Ghost Eyes have been reactivated. Great, let's continue!"

If Yang Jian felt somewhat powerless the first time, then the second time he was restarted, he was filled with boundless anger.

This ghost is toying with them!

"If the ghost thing restarts, it'll be fine. Just treat it as practice for transforming into a rainbow in the ghost realm."

Link couldn't help but glance at him. Yang Jian was indeed a genius of this era. He had only suffered a loss once, but he already knew how to take advantage of the wishing ghost.

The third time, the fourth time...

The red light from the ghost eye streaked across the space, becoming thinner and thinner until it gradually shrank into a fifty-centimeter-long red band of light.

Yang Jian is using the Wishing Ghost's Restart skill to increase his Ghost Domain proficiency!
