At this moment, Chu Jiang was already carrying out the first phase of his objective. However, he didn't have any particularly good methods for this, and could only try to escape in the best possible condition.

Fortunately, Chu Jiang reached a new level of condition before the black sun awoke, otherwise he doubted he would have had any chance of seeing the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall.

Using the ghost realm of the theater, Chu Jiang arrived at the edge of the city from the suburbs in less than a few seconds.

However, just as he was about to use his Ghost Domain to advance further, an invisible pressure suddenly struck! Chu Jiang's Ghost Domain, which had grown to the size of a house, was instantly eroded and compressed into a thin layer, barely able to fit his body.

This is the erosion of the ghost realm by the ghost realm. The supernatural power that Chu Jiang possesses is simply unable to resist this erosion.

This directly shut down Chu Jiang's ability to fly using the Ghost Domain, because he couldn't extend the Ghost Domain forward at all, so how could he achieve multi-stage teleportation flight?

Therefore, Chu Jiang decisively abandoned the use of Ghost Domain. Instead, he borrowed the power of the Imitation Ghost, combined it with one-tenth of the power of the Blood Hand Ghost, and switched to flying in ghost form.

If Chu Jiang hadn't balanced the two ghosts, he would probably be finished now that the Ghost Domain has been destroyed.

Nevertheless, Chu Jiang hadn't flown very far when he immediately felt a scorching heat wave coming from behind him!

The heatwave was extremely intense. If Chu Jiang hadn't already turned into a ghost, he would have been burned to a crisp by now, clothes and all.

However, ghosthood isn't a panacea; the flames of the black sun are themselves a form of supernatural power. If Chu Jiang were to be touched by them, he would absolutely burst into flames, so close contact should be avoided as much as possible...

"Boom!" With a surge of heat, a black-clad boy radiating a circular flame appeared expressionlessly before Chu Jiang.

Chu Jiang seemed to have overlooked one thing: as the master of the Ghost Realm, the Black Sun could appear anywhere...

Facing this terrifyingly powerful ghost head-on, Chu Jiang's body trembled uncontrollably, and the ghost within him began to stir restlessly.

However, Chu Jiang still did not throw out the red embroidered ball in his hand, in order to delay his own death.

Because he's thrown it away now, the entire city of Luohe, including himself, has no future. This red embroidered ball can only be used to lure the Black Sun into the ancestral hall, and Chu Jiang only has one chance!

Before Chu Jiang could think any further, the black-clad youth slowly raised his hands and reached out to grab him.

The movement wasn't particularly fast, but Chu Jiang had no way to avoid it, as if he were facing an abyss that was actively choosing to devour him.

Chu Jiang didn't dare touch this thing at all. He stuffed the red embroidered ball into his left hand, took out the mirror, and activated the conjugate and mirror conjugate simultaneously!

Chu Jiang's left hand, and the right hand reflected in it, immediately established a connection with the black sun's hands.

He wanted to forcibly control the other's hands, using the power of the black sun to suppress it.

Chapter 156 Black Sun VS Ghost Diary

That's not all. Chu Jiang manipulated his blood, took out the Ghost Diary, and held it in front of his chest, using it as a breast protector.

In truth, Chu Jiang didn't expect to cause much damage to the Black Sun. He used the power of the Left-Handed Ghost with all his might just to buy himself a chance, a chance to bypass the opponent and escape to the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall.

But to Chu Jiang's despair, although the two sides had indeed established contact, his movements were extremely difficult, incredibly difficult.

Chu Jiang originally wanted the black sun's hands to grab its neck, twist its head, and force it to stop.

But at this moment, Chu Jiang was very slow in raising his "hands". By the time he raised them to neck height, the flames of the black sun would probably have already burned him.

Therefore, Chu Jiang had to let blood gush from his right hand in an attempt to sever the contact between the two.

But it was no use. In the end, the black sun's slightly raised hands still passed through the blood curtain and evaporated it. Chu Jiang had no choice but to change his actions and use his hands to grasp the other's hands!

The blood on his right hand and the darkness on his left were the strongest points of supernatural power in Chu Jiang's body. If he had to make contact, this was the only way he could do so.

Before the two sides made formal contact, Chu Jiang let out a muffled groan as his entire body was engulfed in the black flames of the Solar Flame Wheel!

Then a cacophony of chaotic voices filled his ears—the voices of the countless dead: "We will live forever in heaven, we will live forever in heaven..."

If it weren't for the existence of the Ghost Diary, Chu Jiang's perception would have been distorted in that instant, and he would have been completely burned into a black fire skeleton.

What followed was even more tragic: the ghost's hands clasped together with Chu Jiang's hands!

"Ah~!!"

Chu Jiang couldn't help but let out a heart-wrenching scream. His hands melted and evaporated at a speed visible to the naked eye. Neither blood nor darkness could withstand the power of the black sun.

Soon, Chu Jiang's hands were reduced to bare bones. The Blood Hand Ghost and the Dark Left Hand were both severely injured and forced to retreat back into Chu Jiang's body where they had not yet been melted.

Chu Jiang, with his entire body scorched by black flames and his hands almost completely destroyed, was also on the verge of death.

Just then, the Ghost Diary, which had been silent all along, finally started moving!

With a "whoosh," the Ghost Diary broke free from the blood's restraints and floated on Chu Jiang's chest. The pages turned automatically, and with each page turned, a sinister chain of nether iron shot out from the diary!

Countless chains shot out, each piercing into the black sun's body.

The usually cold and indifferent black-clad boy finally turned his black-gold eyes and looked at the ghost diary on Chu Jiang's chest.

In his extreme pain, Chu Jiang saw that the Ghost Diary had triggered the killing rules, and he felt a slight sense of relief.

He remembered that the last time Slender Man was about to deliver the final blow, Ghost Diary stood in front of him.

The Slender Man and the diary were locked in a stalemate for a moment, but in the end, the Slender Man did not make a move and let Chu Jiang go.

What about this time? Could it be that Black Sun, feeling that fighting to the death with Ghost Diaries isn't worthwhile, will ultimately choose to give up on killing as well?

Clearly... Chu Jiang was overthinking it; Black Sun didn't seem to be afraid of Ghost Diary.

The black sun-flame wheel around its body suddenly expanded by one size!

Then, black flames surged endlessly from its body, burning back along the Nether Iron Chains onto Ghost Diary.

Soon, the main body of the Ghost Diary was also engulfed in flames.

But the Ghost Diary didn't seem to be in a hurry; not a single page was set on fire. Instead, it shot out more chains to fight against the black sun.

On the other side, it used the cover and back of the diary to press against Chu Jiang's chest and began to devour Chu Jiang's flesh and blood bit by bit. Even though Chu Jiang was completely ghost-like at this moment, he could not stop this devouring.

It's obvious that Ghost Diary didn't act to help Chu Jiang; it just wanted to devour him.

This is only because Chu Jiang is not truly dead. If he were, it would only take two or three bites, and he wouldn't be able to devour things so slowly.

The only saving grace is that Black Sun's attention is mostly focused on fighting the Ghost Diaries.

Therefore, it simply continued to hold Chu Jiang's hands and did not launch any further attacks on Chu Jiang's body.

Nevertheless, Chu Jiang is still suffering extreme torment, both physically and mentally, which is absolutely the greatest pain he has ever experienced in his life.

Neither the erosion of consciousness by the mini-theater nor the back-and-forth tug-of-war between the two ghosts can compare to this kind of pain.

Chu Jiang tried to let go and escape, but he couldn't escape at all, because his hands seemed to be stuck to the black-clad boy's hands.

This caused Chu Jiang immense pain. What was wrong with his hand bones? Why wouldn't they melt and evaporate?! Why?!

In the extreme, the ultimate, the purest torment, Chu Jiang's bare white bones finally could not withstand the power of the black sun and began to crumble inch by inch in the flames.

Just when Chu Jiang thought he could break free from the other party, something incredible happened: his hands began to regenerate wildly!

No, to be precise, it should be called rebirth.

Originally, due to the spread and burning of the flames, Chu Jiang's hands and even the flesh of his two forearms were melted and evaporated completely.

But at this moment, as the bones in his hands and forearms shattered, new bones were rapidly being built and regenerated.

The new bones were not white, but a lifeless black.

Even more bizarrely, fascia, veins, blood vessels, muscles, and skin rapidly formed along these black bones. Soon, Chu Jiang grew a pair of hands that were dull in color and bluish-black in overall appearance.

These hands were somewhat dry and looked more like the hands of a corpse than the hands of a living person!

These hands were still tightly clasped together with the hands of the Black Sun, but Chu Jiang could not feel any pain from them.

Even the power of the Blood Hand Ghost and the power of the Dark Left Hand surged rapidly from Chu Jiang's body into these two arms, as if at this moment, this was the safest and most powerful place on Chu Jiang's body.

When Chu Jiang came to his senses from this incomprehensible and bizarre change, he found that the pain all over his body had lessened, both physically and mentally; at least he could think normally again.

As the two ghosts entangled with one person, the curse of Ju-on also surfaced. The long-haired female ghost actually lay on Chu Jiang's body, reaching out her hands to forcibly pry open the ghost diary on his chest.

Clearly, the rules of Ju-on have also been triggered, and Ju-on is not allowed to kill Chu Jiang within seven days.

Chapter 157 Dancing on the Edge of Death

Chu Jiang was "touched" by this, even though he didn't seem to have so many emotions right now.

At the same time, Chu Jiang also remembered something. After the two ghosts were balanced, he didn't seem to be affected by the negative effects of the "negative". It couldn't be that Ju-on deliberately held back. So what could it be related to?

More and more mysteries are emerging about himself, but at this moment, Chu Jiang has no time to think about these messy things.

He's trying to escape! He's going to the Lin Clan Ancestral Hall!

The Ju-on's obstruction was not very effective; the Ghost Diary had already swallowed part of Chu Jiang's chest.

Because Chu Jiang's near-death state has not yet been resolved.

The rest of his body was still suffering severe damage, and his flesh was gradually disintegrating in the flames. Only his hands underwent a strange change and were temporarily unaffected.

Just as Chu Jiang was about to make a desperate attempt with his lifeless hands, another change occurred in his body.

A leaflet silently emerged from his body, with three words prominently displayed at the top: Holy Word Church.

This froze Chu Jiang's expression. What the hell is this? Why did this long-lost flyer pop out of his body?

Chu Jiang hadn't forgotten that after he carefully read the flyer the blonde nun handed out and concluded that the Holy Word Cult was a cult, the flyer mysteriously disappeared from his hands.

Could it be that the flyer didn't disappear back then, but instead, in some form unknown to him, it quietly hid inside his body and has remained there until now?

What exactly are the cultists' motives? Why did they target a high school student who had just experienced a paranormal event?

And what is the purpose of this flyer appearing at this crucial moment?

As Chu Jiang stared intently at the white flyer, the boy in black also shifted his gaze to the flyer.

This surprised Chu Jiang even more; the S-class ghost opposite him was actually interested in a piece of paper.

Aside from the prey in his eyes, Chu Jiang had only ever seen the Black Sun glance at the Ghost Diary. In fact, the Black Sun had been reading the diary the whole time, but suddenly its attention shifted.

"We meet again. Remember what I told you? This flyer will be helpful to you."

A voice, both familiar and unfamiliar to Chu Jiang, came from the flyer.

This female voice seems to be the same as the voice of the blonde nun from back then.

But within this crisp and melodious tone lies a touch of allure, or rather, seduction, that has never been present before; making one unable to resist wanting to hear the next line after hearing just the first one.

The female voice continued, "You seem to be facing a great crisis, to the point that your life is hanging by a thread, and you are on the verge of death."
