A bizarre resurrection: I, Yang Jian, am bound by a contract with the school beauty!

Within the realm of ghosts, all things are silent.

It was a deathly stillness that transcended the solidification of time and space; it was a higher level of rule that absolutely crushed and covered the lower rules!

In this gray and white world.

Yang Jian is the only god, the only... ruler!

His will is the divine law of this place!

Deep within the furnace.

The chilling aura, capable of freezing the soul, let out a silent wail the moment the ghost realm descended.

The rules of killing it relies on, the eerie power it prides itself on.

Faced with this gray and white world.

As fragile as a snowflake under the sun, it doesn't even have the chance to struggle before it evaporates and is wiped out in an instant!

It felt fear.

A kind of thing that originates from life...

No, it stems from the very essence of existence, the most primal fear!

It wanted to escape.

They wanted to retreat into the endless darkness, but... it was too late.

Within Yang Jian's ghost realm.

Without his permission, nothing can be moved an inch.

Yang Jian's eyes were cold and devoid of any emotion.

He looked at the furnace ghost, which, under the suppression of the ghost realm, could not even maintain its form and could only transform into a ball of pure, cold energy, as if he were watching...

A plate of food that has already been placed on the plate.

He slowly raised his right hand.

That hand.

Pale, slender.

His joints were clearly defined, and he didn't look particularly strong.

then.

Under the watchful eyes of hundreds of millions of viewers around the world, whose hearts were practically stopping, Yang Jian reached out his hand.

His hand.

It passed through the last wisp of flame, frozen in mid-air and about to go out, without being burned or causing any ripples.

His hand, just like that...

Straight ahead.

They ventured into the depths of that cold, lifeless furnace, which radiated endless malice!

"Buzz—!"

The moment Yang Jian's hand touched that cold aura, the entire furnace trembled violently!

A chill ten or even a hundred times stronger than before suddenly erupted!

That was the Furnace Demon's last and most frantic counterattack!

It concentrated all its power and all its resentment into this one point.

It tried to stop the hand that dared to touch it.

Along with this person's soul, it was frozen into an eternal ice sculpture!

"Click...click..."

Visible to the naked eye.

A layer of pale white frost spread wildly upwards from Yang Jian's arm!

Almost in the blink of an eye.

The frost covered his palms, climbed up his wrists, and began to erode his forearms!

In the Kyushu live stream room, everyone's hearts were in their throats!

[Can't it be stopped?!]

[This ghost is resisting! Such terrifying chill! Even Yang Shen...]

No! Look at Yang Shen's expression!

on the screen.

Faced with this terrifying chill that could instantly freeze steel into dust, Yang Jian's face remained as calm as ever.

even……

A cold smile, tinged with disdain and mockery, curled at the corner of his mouth.

"Even a grain of rice can shine?"

He spoke calmly.

The voice wasn't loud, but it sounded like a divine decree from the heavens!

The moment the words fell.

boom--!

The gray-white ghostly domain that had enveloped the entire room suddenly shrank inward!

All the power.

All of them converged towards Yang Jian's right arm!

The frantically spreading, pale white frost, upon contact with this extremely concentrated ghostly power, was as if it had met its nemesis, emitting a "sizzling" sound, and instantly melted and dissipated!

A counterattack?

In the face of absolute power, any counterattack is nothing but a joke!

Yang Jian's hand.

Without the slightest pause, he spread his five fingers and clenched them tightly against the invisible, chilling aura deep within the furnace!

as if……

I have grasped an unseen soul that is struggling frantically!

then.

He began to exert his strength.

It was a kind of devouring, a kind of plundering, a kind of...

It is even more domineering.

Even more unreasonable... absorption!

The power of the furnace demon.

It was flowing into his body through his arm!

This moment.

Yang Jian could clearly sense it.

The dormant pieces of the puzzle belonging to the character "Yang Jian" within him are being activated and filled little by little!

It was an indescribable, exhilarating feeling of rapidly increasing power!

And this change.

It was also presented directly to all the viewers.

All I saw was...

As Yang Jian absorbed the energy, the flames that had been burning brightly but were then solidified by the Ghost Domain began to dim rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye!

It was not extinguished because the fuel ran out.

Rather, it is a kind of...

The demise of the origin!

flame.

It is the outward manifestation of the power of the Fire Furnace Demon.

now.

Its origin is being devoured by Yang Jian.

These outward appearances naturally crumbled as a result!

time.

Second by second passed.

The entire process was eerily quiet.

in the room.

Only the flickering light and shadow of the flames dimming, and... Yang Jian's terrifying aura, like an abyss, devouring everything!

at last.

"puff……"

With the last faint sound.

The last flame in the stove was completely extinguished.

The entire room.

It was instantly swallowed up by endless darkness.

Only the camera lens in the live stream, glowing faintly, faithfully recorded everything before its eyes.

The stove... went out.

According to the pattern summarized by all the players before, when the furnace goes out, it is the moment when the vengeful ghost comes to claim your life!

However, at this moment...

In the darkness, the man still stood there quietly.

He slowly withdrew his hand from the stove.

Unharmed.

The Furnace Demon, feared by countless players and considered one of the greatest threats to life...

Just like that, without a sound, it was completely... erased from this hotel!

It didn't even get to utter a scream before it became part of Yang Jian's power, a stepping stone for him to reach a higher level...

Yang Jian closed his eyes and quietly felt the changes in his body.

A line of data that only he could see appeared in his mind.

[Template: Yang Jian (Yang Jian)]

Integration progress: 12%

[Has already mastered the vengeful spirit:]

[Deceptive tactic: Integration progress 30%]

[Strange Eye: 10%]

[Strange Blood: 10%]

[Stealth Hand: 10%]

[Ghostly Shadow: 2%]

【…】

The integration progress has increased from 10% to 12%!

And among them.

The one that improved the most was the vengeful ghost codenamed "Deceitful Ghost," whose mastery progress jumped to thirty percent!

Yang Jian could clearly sense it.

A brand new, unpredictable power is flowing through my body.

That's a kind of...

A power capable of distorting reality, altering perceptions, and turning black into white!

Although at the current 30% progress, it is still far from being able to achieve what "Yang Jian" himself can do, where words become law and falsehoods become reality.

but.

He has already managed to interfere with and distort reality to a certain extent.

At least, changing my identity information to "Li Yao" will no longer require as much effort as before.

This is him now.

It can be done... more easily, more casually!

This.

The most obvious benefit is that it devours vengeful spirits!
