At this moment, the one who possesses the Fear Pearl is Kang Yu.
It's obvious that something's wrong with him right now.
They came to Linjiang City to cause trouble, but they couldn't even do the most basic thing like concealing their whereabouts.
He had been inexplicably transported to a remote, deserted area, his eyes bloodshot and red, clutching the beads tightly in his hand.
At first, he was only focused on revenge and didn't realize the problem the bead was causing, since it didn't have a direct impact on him.
However, as time went on, the beads may have slowly revived, and Kang Yu gradually realized that something was wrong.
He always felt that something was wrong with everything around him, his nerves were on edge, and he saw danger everywhere. Most importantly, he actually encountered a lot of trouble!
Since obtaining this bead, he has encountered more Supernatural phenomena than he has in his entire life combined!
"Is this thing some kind of curse?" Kang Yu felt a bitter taste in his mouth.
He commands Time Fierce Ghost but is Time Fierce Ghost by another; to escape this pursuit, he is forced to work for someone else, plotting to murder Hu Jiu, only to have his family destroyed by Hu Jiu; seeking revenge, he obtains this bead, but misfortune follows him relentlessly.
He felt like he was trapped in a vicious cycle, constantly going downhill, with mountains pressing down on him, making it hard for him to breathe.
He considered throwing the bead away, and he actually did.
But less than a minute later, the bead inexplicably reappeared beside him, as if it had become attached to him.
"No wonder that mysterious man in black robes didn't touch it himself, but insisted on sending someone as insignificant as me to get it. So it's such a troublesome thing..."
Having stepped out of her comfort zone and into a completely unfamiliar circle, Kang Yu has not yet fully adapted to the current situation where there are vicious and scheming people everywhere.
After much deliberation, Kang Yu gradually calmed down. If she really couldn't find a way out of this predicament, she would have no choice but to take a gamble. In any case, the situation couldn't be any worse than it was now... right?
Meanwhile, Hu Jiu had already told Kaiyang and the others all the information about Kang Yu.
The Headquarters was initially startled to have such a powerful Ghost Tamer Kaiyang control Time Fierce Ghost, but then their expressions turned serious.
Dealing with the Fear Pearl isn't too difficult. With so many experts around, it may be troublesome, but it will definitely be resolved properly in the end. The only challenge will be clearing away the residual effects of the Fear Pearl afterward.
But now the situation is different. Kang Yu has mastered the Time Fierce Ghost, which allows him to travel through time on a small scale. Moreover, there is another terrifying ghost watching him, and he can also redirect that ghost's target to someone else.
It seems unlikely that subduing Kang Yu and containing the Fear Pearl can be done in a short period of time.
The thing that Fear Pearl is most vulnerable to is being delayed.
It was unlikely that Kang Yu would willingly hand over the Fear Pearl. Thinking of this, Kaiyang frowned like a Shar Pei puppy.
"Hurry, before the situation deteriorates further, we must deal with that thing as soon as possible!"
Fortunately, Hu Jiu reacted quickly and threw the Fear Pearl and Kang Yu out of the city together.
When these Ghost Tamers act, they have no tall buildings to block their way, nor do they need to be restrained or worry about harming too many innocent people.
Of course, if someone is actually injured, they can only blame themselves for being unlucky.
Somewhere outside the city, everything was completely shrouded in thick fog.
The thick fog obscured the sky and reduced visibility to less than three meters. Even the Ghost Tamer inside could not see very far, and all their senses were restricted.
This alone shows that this fog is definitely not simple.
Hu Jiu, Kaiyang, and the others all entered the mist using their Ghost Domains. However, strangely, outside the Ghost Domains, the density of the mist was rapidly increasing, compressing the Ghost Domains and encroaching upon Ghost Domain.
Upon encountering the Ghost Domain, the dense fog seemed to be stimulated in some way.
"Oh no! This fog is specifically designed for the Ghost Domain! Activating the Ghost Domain within the fog will not only increase the energy consumption dramatically, but the fog will also erode the Ghost Domain, causing some kind of permanent damage!" Kaiyang suddenly exclaimed urgently.
"The dense fog didn't appear by chance; like the Fear Pearl, it was deliberately released!"
Upon hearing this, Hu Jiu almost immediately withdrew his Ghost Domain, and black talismans floated out from his body, tightly wrapping him up.
The others also used their own unique abilities and stopped using the Ghost Domain.
Kaiyang was stunned for a moment when he saw the Ghost-Drawing Talisman on Hu Jiu's body, but he didn't say anything.
Something seemed to have appeared in the hazy fog, like a monster lurking, moving swiftly from time to time.
Hu Jiu scattered a handful of black talisman paper, which fell in all directions.
Bang, sizzle, creak--
All sorts of strange sounds entered my ears.
Swish--
A strange gust of wind came from behind, and an eye popped out from the back of Hu Jiu's head. He saw a humanoid figure shrouded in thick fog rapidly approaching.
At its core is a grotesque, twisted corpse, its exterior shrouded in mist, resembling a puppet controlled by the fog.
"Is it Ghost Slave?" Hu Jiu glared at him, and the other person immediately fell apart.
Although easily defeated, judging from the occasional shadows flashing through the mist, there must be quite a few of these things.
The scattered pieces of corpse on the ground gradually turned into mist and drifted away, merging into the surrounding thick fog.
"It seems that these things, which resemble Ghost Slave, may be formed from condensed mist. Even if we destroy them, they will only turn back into mist and return to the thick fog, and they may reappear after a while."
Visibility in the fog had dropped to less than half a meter, and before they knew it, Hu Jiu had become separated from the others.
Countless black talismans floated around Hu Jiu like paper money, and the Ghost Slave in the mist was no match for him.
These Ghost Slaves don't have any special abilities; their most notable characteristic is their regeneration. As if shrouded in mist, they are immortal beings, yet their destructive power is quite ordinary.
The search for Kang Yu was delayed due to the fog.
Of course, the more crucial reason is that Hu Jiu wasn't in a hurry to find or deal with the Fear Pearl.
He's not some saintly savior; there are always others to take the fall.
The fog grew thicker, affecting not only others but also Kang Yu, who could no longer see anything.
The dense fog itself wasn't so scary; what was truly terrible was the Time Fierce Ghost that was hunting him down, chasing him like Hound, with the frequency of its attacks increasing!
He recalled that at the beginning, there would be an attack every few days, but now there are attacks several times a day.
Moreover, he inexplicably left the city, and there was no one around to take the brunt of the Fierce Ghosts ' attacks in his place.
Just then, a hundred meters away from Kang Yu, a young man was surrounded by countless threads that looked like a spider web.
He was Ghost Tamer brought by Kaiyang. His ability was to manipulate threads and sense things through them, so even if the thick fog obscured his vision, he could quickly lock onto his target.
