The demon monk in the second dimension

To control this vengeful ghost, one must clear away the vengeful ghosts that were previously captured by the black paper umbrella, layer by layer, according to the hierarchy of the ghost realm, and finally reach the sixth level of the ghost realm.

This was made specifically for powerful demon tamers, leaving no chance for ordinary people to try their luck!

Looking at this black paper umbrella, which seemed to be produced by a paper-making shop in Taiping Ancient Town, Xia Zhi shook her head.

"Another work by a ghost-controller from the Republican era."

When the black paper umbrella opens to reveal the ghost realm, the fierce ghosts within will attack anyone or any ghost that enters the realm.

The stronger the ghost tamer and the ghost, the deeper they will enter the ghost realm and face more powerful attacks.

Compared to Ghost Lake, which can only replicate some of the ghosts' abilities, the Ghost Realm of the Black Paper Umbrella allows these ghosts to unleash their full power.

However, the drawback is that you will only be attacked by these vengeful ghosts if you enter the ghostly domain of the black paper umbrella.

Moreover, within the ghost realm of the black paper umbrella, these vengeful spirits freely exercise their own supernatural rules and are not controlled by the umbrella's owner.

In other words, anyone other than the owner of the paper umbrella will be attacked if they enter.

Xia Zhi picked out the ghosts one by one from the black paper umbrella, but none of them could match her puzzle piece; they were all swallowed by the black mud.

The second ghost is a ghost bride wearing a red wedding dress and a red veil.

Her exposed hands looked like a dried corpse. They still retained the ability to move even within the eight layers of the ghost realm during the summer solstice, which startled him.

But once wrapped in black mud and thrown into the ghost lake, the ghost bride calmed down.

Xia Zhi felt that this ghost bride was incomplete, as if something was missing.

Her supernatural rule is that being grabbed by these hands will result in death.

These supernatural rules were useless to Xia Zhi, who was also sent into the black mud.

"This ghost bride is even more terrifying than this black paper umbrella! No wonder it's designated as an X-crime bus!"

Event X is different from the CBAS paranormal event classification, meaning an event that is currently inconclusive.

The headquarters didn't know whether the existence of this eerie bus that carried vengeful ghosts around was a good thing or a bad thing.

After all, besides transporting vengeful spirits, it can also help suppress the revival of vengeful spirits within the spirit tamer.

Xia Zhi had no idea that she had inadvertently ruined the resurrection plan of a ghost-tamer from the Republican era.

No one expected that the ghost bride, who could withstand even the eight layers of ghost realm, would suddenly fall like this?

But even if he knew, he wouldn't care.

Aside from the black paper umbrella and the ghost bride, the other two ghosts are rather ordinary.

A large piece of yellow paper was pasted on a ghost face.

This kind of yellow paper is commonly seen when visiting graves; it can be burned and used as paper money.

This ghost's supernatural rule is to block the way. He will always block a crossroads, and no matter whether a person chooses to go forward, backward, turn left, or turn right, they will die.

But if you walk backwards facing the ghost, you'll be fine. The danger will be over once you're far enough away from the intersection to not see it anymore, or when you reach the next intersection.

These supernatural rules were also useless to Xia Zhi, so they were passed on to Hei Ni.

However, this seemingly extraordinary piece of yellow paper was left behind by Xia Zhi.

The last ghost only has one arm, and its rule for killing is that it cannot lean against anything behind it.

Once you lean against a wall or door, you'll find that what you're leaning against has become this ghost, and then you'll be killed.

Useless items +3.

"So in the end, this is the only umbrella that's not bad. Let's just use it for the driver."

Xia Zhi placed the black paper umbrella on the driver's seat of the bus and drove along the designated route.

This time, he deliberately avoided the city and drove to places that looked ominous.

……

Now, only a very few vengeful ghosts can stop Xia Zhi's progress.

Moreover, it was merely an obstruction, not something that could harm him.

Driving the bus, Xia Zhi resolved the arrangements made by several ghost-controlling masters from the Republican era, and incorporated hundreds of vengeful ghosts into the black mud.

His strength has evolved once again, and he now possesses the ninth level of the Ghost Domain.

After opening the Nine-Layer Ghost Realm, Xia Zhi discovered that many "paths" had appeared in her ghost realm.

These paths lead to other ghost realms.

Clearly, each of these ghost realms represents a terrifying vengeful spirit or a dangerous arrangement.

"It's not a road to the real world, but a road to the ghost realm? This bus must have been made using this rule, which is why it can cross several cities in such a short time."

Instead of recklessly venturing into other ghost realms, Xia Zhi put away the bus, returned to the island nation, and then ventured into the ghost temple.

He went there for revenge.

Last time, he only had six layers of ghost realm, and he was blocked by the golden Buddha in the temple. He was even almost swallowed by the ghost well.

This time, Xia Zhi brought the Nine-Layer Ghost Realm with her, running rampant and the first thing she did was to use black mud to devour the golden Buddha.

Guijing seemed to have sensed Xia Zhi's power and did not appear.

However, Xia Zhi used the Ghost Domain to forcibly reverse time in the Ghost Temple, causing the Ghost Well to appear.

By holding the wellhead down, Xia Zhi forcefully poured the water from Ghost Lake, mixed with black mud, into it, quickly bringing Ghost Well under his control.

At this time, Xia Zhi discovered that the concept behind the Ghost Well was very similar to that of the Ghost Lake, both of which involved throwing ghosts into them to suppress them.

However, compared to Ghost Lake, Ghost Well has a smaller capacity and can't suppress many ghosts.

Therefore, the bottom of the well is filled with extremely terrifying ghosts.

Ordinary vengeful ghosts are suppressed by the Heavenly King Hall, the Arhat Hall, the Guangyuan Hall, the monks' quarters, and the three large withered trees in the square.

After the Ghost Temple, Xia Zhi continued driving the bus, visiting each stop one by one.

A mortuary passed down from the Republican era, a village where, according to legend, a lineage of corpse-drivers lived, Fushouyuan Cemetery, old houses from the Republican era, Caesar Hotel, Ping An Building surrounded by will-o'-the-wisps, ghost paintings...

These infamous haunted places were suppressed one by one by Xia Zhi, and some were even taken away entirely, much to the astonishment of headquarters.

Cao Yanhua was overjoyed, stating that incorporating Xia Zhi into the Asian headquarters system was the most successful thing he had ever done.

This has solved so many paranormal cases!

As time passed, more and more vengeful spirits were devoured by the black mud, and Xia Zhi grew stronger and stronger.

After sweeping away the arrangements of the tenth ghost tamer from the Republican era, he finally took the last step and possessed ten layers of ghost domains.

In that instant, the ghost realm of Xia Zhi was invaded, and an extremely terrifying vengeful ghost came knocking on its door.

All the ghost puzzle pieces collected by Xia Zhi, including the knocking ghost, the opening ghost, and the ghostly figure, have been sealed.

For an ordinary ghost tamer, this would be equivalent to losing everything in a month, and they would surely die.

But Xia Zhi's true form is actually black mud. And it's black mud that has grown countless times larger since it first arrived in this world.

He abandoned the vengeful spirit he had previously controlled, and countless bandages on his body stretched out like tentacles, preparing to control this newly appeared terrifying vengeful spirit.

Even now, Xia Zhi has been entangled with this vengeful ghost for a whole year before finally controlling it.

After successfully controlling the ghost, Xia Zhi realized that it was actually a ghost tamer, and the first ghost tamer in the world.

He is just like Qin Lao, blessed with extraordinary talent, chosen by the world as its spokesperson from birth.

However, this low-level spiritual world later attempted to upgrade to a medium-level spiritual world through supernatural means, but the upgrade failed and the world's consciousness collapsed.

The spokesperson was also affected, turning into a half-human, half-ghost.

He made many arrangements to prevent the destruction of humanity.

This includes attempts to separate humans from ghosts and to shatter powerful ghosts, breaking them into jigsaw puzzle pieces.

Unfortunately, it ultimately failed.

Now that Xia Zhi has taken control of this spokesperson, it's as if she has mastered the world and become its new spokesperson.

Unlike her predecessor, who had to figure everything out on her own, Xia Zhi knew exactly how to navigate this low-level spiritual world.

Following the somewhat broken rules of this world, Xia Zhi sealed off the supernatural, separated ghosts from humans, and restored everything to the state it was at when he first met Jian Zi.

No matter how powerful a ghost is, it doesn't matter as long as you can't see it.

If you can't see it, it can't cause harm.

At the same time, the summer solstice separated the human realm from the ghost realm, driving most of the vengeful ghosts to the supernatural land, which was named the Underworld.

And so, peace was restored to the world.

Chapter 448 The Elf Restaurant in the Black Market

The Kanto region is the Alliance's headquarters and its core territory, its foundation.

This place is incredibly prosperous, and the alliance has made it as solid as a rock.

But where there is light, there is also shadow.

In almost every city in the Kanto region, there exists a place called the "black market".

In these black markets, you can find many trading shops that are banned by the Alliance.

For example, shops that sell elves.

The Pokémon sold here may be wild Pokémon that have been captured, or Pokémon that originally had trainers but were stolen or robbed.

Another example is shops that sell Poké Balls that haven't been marked by the League, as well as Pokémon body parts.

Many Poison-type Pokémon have venom sacs in their bodies, and other Poison-type Pokémon can enhance their toxicity by consuming these venom sacs.

Beautiful Pokémon like Butterfree, handsome Pokémon like Pidgeot, fierce Pokémon like Nidoking, and majestic Pokémon like Charizard are specimens that many wealthy people like to collect.

In the black market, there are also restaurants that don't provide food for elves, but directly piss off them.

All three behaviors are explicitly prohibited by the Alliance, and each is a serious crime, yet they persist despite repeated prohibitions.

The black market exists for those bug-catching teenagers who can't afford the League's high training fees but still want to become trainers.

In a sense, the black market confines the dark side of the Pokémon League to a certain scope. Moreover, if a problem arises, a whole squad of Officer Jenny can be mobilized at any time to quell it.

Completely banning the black market is not a good thing for the Alliance.

Furthermore, without the Bug Catchers who would be brutally beaten and humiliated by professional Trainers, yet still dream of becoming Pokémon Masters and relentlessly pursue their dreams, exhausting their family fortunes, where would the wealthy families who spend millions to become professional Trainers come from for comparison?

Without comparison, how can these "legitimate trainers of the league" feel proud?

In the black market of Tokiwa City, there is a newly opened restaurant that has recently become very famous.

This restaurant doesn't serve ordinary animals at all; it specializes in cooking elves.

Some of the ingredients produced by elves are edible.

For example, Chansey produces regular eggs, Miltank produces milk, Juicer produces juice, Farfetch'd produces leeks, and Tropius and Snowman produce fruit.

The alliance not only does not prohibit it, but also vigorously develops related industries, striving for a one-stop service.

However, consuming spirits is absolutely prohibited.

But compared to ordinary animals, some elves are much tastier.

The idea of ​​eating spirits is much more sophisticated than eating ordinary animals, and it feels very exciting and stimulating.

This is a symbol of humanity standing at the top of the food chain!

The most famous Pokémon dishes are undoubtedly the well-known stir-fried leek duck with scallions, steamed giant crab, honey stewed Snorlax paws, spicy stir-fried octopus bucket, and a four-color fruit platter made up of mangosteen from Baskin-Robbins, mango from Tropius, ice fruit from Snowman, and nutritious fruit from Cherry Blossom, etc.

Their cooking methods are very similar to those of other common animals.

As for Magikarp, although it looks very fat, its body is mostly scales and bones, and it has no value for food. It has nothing to do with the so-called "fat carp".

These elves are already quite expensive to sell individually, and the cost of consuming them is even higher.

Therefore, the elf restaurants on the black market are not affordable for ordinary people; only the wealthy members of the Alliance can afford to eat there.

This restaurant, located in the black market of Tokiwa City, is famous not only for its delicious food but also for its wide variety of dishes.

Besides a few "home-style" Pokémon dishes, even extremely rare Pokémon like Slowpoke, Rapidash, Mightyena, and Squirtle are on the menu.

The sheer number of zeros after the price makes one question the meaning of life.
