Chapter 61 – Successfully contained


The surrounding scenery and buildings were still familiar and identical to the mall.

But the entire world seemed to be stained with blood, and everything was covered with a faint red hue.

The Ghost Domain seemed small, but once inside, the space could be infinitely enlarged, like an extradimensional space between reality and illusion. Even Yang Jian, who possessed the Ghost Domain, could not decipher the true form of the Ghost Domain.

At this moment, a corpse was standing in front of Yang Jian.

It was a corpse of one of the disciples who followed Master Luo before, missing an arm and with its head twisted 180 degrees.

Yang Jian recognized this corpse.

“This ghost must choose the freshest body to possess. It will abandon the rotten or incongruous ones, but…it cannot be ruled out that it has the ability to occupy any corpse at will. If that’s the case, even Yan Li won’t be able to catch it unless all the bodies are restricted at once.”

“But once it’s locked up in the Ghost Domain, it’s different. This is the only way to prevent the ghost from escaping.”

“Yan Li made the right choice to cooperate with me. He didn’t waste the opportunity to act as bait just now.”

Yang Jian’s gaze flickered as he looked at the countdown on his phone.

Two minutes and forty seconds had passed.

But it didn’t matter.

The ghost had been found, and his limit was five minutes. As long as he could successfully detain the ghost, even if it dragged on until the end of five minutes, it wouldn’t matter.

“However, now is the most dangerous time.”

Yang Jian took a deep breath.

Previously, he was only facing a corpse controlled by a ghost, but now he was facing a real ghost.

The corpse in front of him did not choose to remain still. Perhaps its lurking had already been seen through by Yang Jian. Its head slowly turned from behind, like a clockwork machine, and returned to its normal state before charging towards him.

The dead gray eyes didn’t know if they could still see things, but they stared at Yang Jian.

Numb, stiff, without any emotion.

Like a moving puppet toy, just staring at it was enough to make one’s hair stand on end.

But Yang Jian had already encountered ghosts before, even scarier knocking ghosts. His heart was relatively strong.

Suddenly, the ghost moved.It moved swiftly, the fresh corpse ran towards Yang Jian at a speed that a human could not reach. In almost two seconds, it had already arrived in front of Yang Jian. It stretched out its remaining hand and did not go for Yang Jian’s head, but for the eye on his hand.

“Yan Li’s hand, my Ghost Eye… does this ghost want to create a body entirely made of fierce ghosts? That’s why you keep changing everyone’s bodies… are you looking for a suitable body for yourself?”

Yang Jian did not move, he stood still and did not dodge or avoid.

“It seems that this ghost, like that ghost baby, has great potential for growth. Once you have collected a body made entirely of ghosts, the level of horror can be defined as S-level destruction, but unfortunately, your own level of horror is not high.”

The Yang Jian in front of it did not let the ghost catch him, and the ghost eye on his hand seemed to be forcibly taken away.

But the next moment, he disappeared.

Yang Jian appeared not far behind the ghost.

“I am glad that I can restrain a future extremely dangerous ghost today. But I still don’t know if you ghosts have intelligence?”

He tried to analyze some useful information from this ghost’s actions, purpose, and existence.

Enlarge the results of this action.

However, this ghost did not respond to him, just stood still, motionless.

“Since communication is impossible, then I can only imprison such a terrifying thing.” Yang Jian did not dare to be too confident, even though he was in the ghost domain.

“Yan Li, it’s your turn.”

With the red light covering the clothing store, Yang Jian’s figure appeared, and the corpse also appeared.

At this moment, Yan Li had already put the arm that was taken off by the ghost back on, and he did not know what method he used to reattach it. Perhaps it was the ability of the ghost in his body.

“Are you sure it’s this corpse?”

Seeing Yang Jian suddenly appear, Yan Li’s eyelids twitched and he immediately asked.

“I trapped it in the ghost domain. Did any other corpses move during that time?” Yang Jian said.

“Well… no.” Yan Li looked at the other corpses and indeed, there was no movement.

“I just want to confirm again. If I make a mistake again, you know my situation.”

Yang Jian said, “I was already desperate. If we can successfully imprison this ghost, you can retire early, right? It’s worth a billion dollars, enough for you to die without regrets… the same goes for me.””You’re right.” Yan Li gritted his teeth and entered the Ghost Domain.

He couldn’t enter the Ghost Domain on his own, he needed Yang Jian’s permission.

However, when Yan Li entered, perhaps his presence threatened this ghost.

Immediately.

A blurry figure walked out of the corpse.

Its height and size changed rapidly, becoming tall or short, fat or thin like Yang Jian… except this ghost still had no head.

Headless Ghost Shadow!

Is this the true face of this ghost?

No wonder the heads of every corpse always rotted the fastest, it was because it was missing a head.

“Yang Jian, it’s targeting you.” Yan Li shouted urgently upon seeing this.

Before he could finish, the ghost shadow quickly approached, as if it wanted to merge with him.

It was unclear whether Yang Jian was too slow to react or if the ghost shadow’s movements were too strange.

Soon, the ghost shadow merged into Yang Jian’s body.

He didn’t move…

“No way?” Yan Li’s eyes narrowed and his heart tightened.

After being in contact for so long, he had already understood this ghost’s ability.

This was a ghost that could take over a person’s body… not just a person’s body, but anything else too. If Yang Jian’s body was taken over now, it would be all over.

“What are you surprised about? The ghost possessed only a fake mannequin, it seems that even ghosts can deceive people.” Yang Jian’s voice sounded, he didn’t know when he had walked over from the side.

He had no injuries.

And the person possessed in front of him, with a slight flash of red light, turned into a fake mannequin.

“Is this the ability of the unsolvable Ghost Domain?” Yan Li looked at Yang Jian, who appeared out of nowhere, in shock.

He suspected that even this Yang Jian might be fake.

But even if he was fake, he couldn’t tell.

The Ghost Domain could distort reality at will, only what Yang Jian considered to be real was true.

“The time is almost up, if we don’t act now, I’ll leave.” Yang Jian said.

“I understand.”

Yan Li snapped out of his shock and hurried over.

He took a step and came to the fake mannequin’s side.

Can even the distance be shortened?

Yan Li didn’t have time to doubt the existence of the Ghost Domain, he grabbed the fake mannequin, and blood flowed out from his gloved hands, quickly seeping into it.

“Thump, thump, thump~!”

As soon as the ghost blood that could restrict other ghosts touched this real ghost, the bodies in the clothing store fell one after another.

The heads and bodies of the corpses separated, like a set of blocks that were all knocked down at once.”It’s effective. Congratulations, you caught the real ghost. Your ability is very powerful. At least I can only trap it, not restrict it,” Yang Jian said, glancing at the ghost.

Yan Li smiled bitterly, “Don’t joke around. Your unbeatable Ghost Domain is the real horror. Unless I can catch the ghost with my own hands, I’m useless. Once the restriction fails, I won’t even have a chance to escape. But if we can cooperate, catching a ghost will become much easier.”

After speaking, he glanced at Yang Jian again.

Indeed, their abilities complemented each other.

But then Yan Li felt regretful.

Because his limit was approaching, he wouldn’t live much longer. If he had met Yang Jian earlier, the situation might have been better.

“Let’s talk later. It’s almost four minutes. You don’t want me to die from the ghost’s resurrection, so hurry up and detain it,” Yang Jian said.

“Wait a bit longer. It’s not that fast,” Yan Li said.

Yang Jian could only patiently wait.

About ten seconds later, enough ghost blood had penetrated the fake plastic model, and it began to slowly melt.

Yes, you read that right.

Ghost blood seeped out of every joint of the fake model, gradually engulfing its entire body and then melting it.

The ghost shadow attached to it seemed to have melted as well.

Blood flowed all over the ground, forming a pool of blood that affected the surrounding Ghost Domain.

Yan Li squatted down and put his hand on the blood pool.

The blood seemed to be sucked back into his body.

The blood quickly decreased until only a small puddle remained.

But within that pool of blood, there was a silhouette of a headless person struggling.

It reached out its hand, flipped its body, and tried to escape from the blood pool.

But it was futile.

The blood was like a shackle, firmly trapping it.

“Now it’s okay,” Yan Li took out the box made of heavy gold.

Although it was small, it was more than enough to hold this small puddle of blood.

The blood wriggled on the ground, as if it had a life of its own, and flowed into the box with the headless ghost shadow trapped inside.

“Click!”

The box was closed tightly, but Yan Li still felt uneasy. He wrapped it with several layers of golden aluminum foil, leaving no gaps.”I’ve only just contained it for now. All I need to do is melt the gold foil on top and seal up the gap completely. That way, the ghost will never be able to escape. Even leaving a small gap could lead to its escape. Some ghost tamers have learned this lesson the hard way.”

After completing all of this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

“Is that so? I’ve learned something new,” Yang Jian said, but he had already memorized these steps in his heart.

Just using gold is not enough. It also needs to be sealed up without any gaps.

“Now that you’ve successfully contained this ghost, what do you plan to do next? If you don’t mind, I can keep this box for now. What do you think?” He spoke slowly after that.
