Research

After the welcoming banquet, Richard got down to business.

He asked Ye Zhen if he had Vengeful Ghost with Ghost Domain in his collection, as he needed one for research.

In exchange, he could provide Ye Zhen with some secret medicines that could assist in cultivating Divine Power.

Regardless, one still needs to improve their Divine Power, as both fighting against the erosion of Vengeful Ghost and the invasion of bizarre consciousness-related entities require strong Divine Power.

Why are the Ghost Controller in this world being affected by strange phenomena, becoming increasingly emotionally detached, and exhibiting increasingly bizarre behaviors?

Isn't it simply that their ordinary consciousness can't withstand the strain of the Rules, and their consciousness is gradually assimilated by the Rules?

In the end, Yang Jian, having become a god, had almost no consciousness of a living person left, and was nothing more than a Starving Ghost acting on instinct.

This is somewhat similar to the gods in D&D who become gods through faith. At first, they can still experience the joys and sorrows of being mortals. But over time, they are assimilated by the Rules and become wooden stakes that act according to the Rules.

Although one's lifespan becomes eternal after becoming a god, one's life is no longer free; one becomes a tool to work for the world. Even one's consciousness is assimilated by the world after a long time.

Although he could seek out Vengeful Ghost with Ghost Domain on his own, if he were to launch a large-scale Divine Power search, it would likely trigger many bizarre and consciousness-based killing Rules.

Moreover, we don't even know what state Yang Jian will be in in the future; this guy seems to have the ability to travel through time in the future.

Making too much noise could attract Yang Jian's attention in the future. Richard didn't want to fight such a formidable character right away.

That would be troublesome again, so Ye Zhen decided not to cause any unnecessary trouble.

In fact, Ye Zhen really does have Vengeful Ghost imprisoned in the supernatural cases handled in Dahai City, some of which possess Ghost Domain.

After obtaining the supernatural object, Richard used gold to create a sealed space, enclosing himself and the object within a small area.

It must be said that the eerie things in this world are all quite unique in appearance, possessing a kind of chilling beauty. Just looking at them gives one an uncomfortable feeling.

Those who Ghost Controller in this world must have seen a lot to have become desensitized, right?

For example, the strange creature in front of Richard, which possesses Ghost Domain, is actually a dried-up corpse with a killing rule that kills anyone who gets within three meters or touches it.

The Deva Path Puppet was quite precious, Richard was reluctant to use it for experiments, so he summoned another puppet.

It is a new Human Path Puppet, crafted from the corpse of Leimo's Darkness Divine Clone.

Fortunately, this puppet, made of Divine Power, has good resistance to the power of laws, making it more durable than other puppets.

He wouldn't be too bothered if it got damaged.

If he had known that the divine corpse would have this use, he should have had his Wind Element Divine Clone, who was stationed on a small continent, leave those two Low-level God who had offended him with intact corpses.

Bringing the Human Path Puppet close to the Mummified Ghost quickly triggered the Mummified Ghost's killing pattern.

Richard observed the process of the Mummified Ghost launching its attack. Because Richard had not sealed off the space, the Mummified Ghost suddenly appeared in front of the Human Path Puppet.

Suddenly, a hand landed on the puppet's shoulder, and the ghostly aura of the Mummified Ghost began to clash with the Material Defense Divine Artifact worn by the puppet.

A decaying, lifeless wave of law swept towards the Human Path.

In the Coiling Dragon World, the laws are clearly distinct; Wind Element Law are Wind Element Law, and Laws of Water are Laws of Water.

Aside from those with Soul Mutant, even the Chief God cannot possibly merge the two laws.

However, in other worlds, laws rarely appear independently; they intertwine and merge with other laws to form complex law structures.

Just like these strange things in this world, they all possess a composite law structure formed by the fusion of death-type laws and other laws, which is the source of their abilities.

Some are combined with time, some with space, and some are even combined with more than one. For example, Ye Zhen's Substitute Ghost is intertwined with multiple laws such as death, space, and Karma Law.

Of course, the laws governing these strange entities are not complete laws; they might be called Law Fragments.

Just like those Saint Domain in the Coiling Dragon World who have entered the Gate of Laws, but have not fully comprehended the mysteries of a particular Law Profound Mysteries.

But regardless of the type of eeriness, it will always carry this aura of death and decay.

This world is indeed riddled with problems. Why do all the supernatural phenomena carry this aura of death, decay, and corruption?

Is it because the world is heading towards death? Richard could only speculate.

But will this happen after the world declines? I've never seen that.

Suppress your guesses; they are just wild guesses, without any evidence.

He continued his experiments, and then had the Human Path Puppet try to control the Mummified Ghost.

Richard controls the Human Path Puppet through his consciousness, crushing the Mummified Ghost with the laws of nature. He doesn't know the Rules of Death, but he knows the Life Law.

There is no such thing as high-energy in this world. The so-called supernatural confrontation is actually a confrontation between two strange Rules.

The overwhelming power at the level of laws had a greater impact on the Mummified Ghost than suppressing it with supernatural means.

He completely rewrote the killing patterns of the Mummified Ghost. It no longer attacks people within three meters of it, effectively eliminating its killing patterns.

In other words, it will no longer attack humans, even if they get very close.

Even the rule that touching it would mean certain death is gone. Now it's just a wooden stake, unable to move.

Based on this world's classification of Vengeful Ghost, this is definitely Golden Legend. There will be no instinctive agitation, no Vengeful Ghost Revival, and it comes with its own Ghost Domain.

Of course, it has also lost its offensive capabilities; to attack it, one must master its inherent Rules, which is not very friendly to the Ghost Controller of this world.

But for Richard, he didn't need this thing to have any subjective initiative; he just needed a tool to observe and comprehend the unique laws of this world.

After completing the transformation of the Mummified Ghost, Richard fused it with the Human Path Puppet.

Then, the Supernatural Ability of the Mummified Ghost are manipulated through the Human Path Puppet.

A Ghost Domain appeared, enveloping several nearby apartment buildings.

Aside from those Ghost Controller, ordinary people only felt a chill, but nothing else seemed amiss.

That sense of control over the space within the Ghost Domain also gave Richard more inspiration.

Perhaps before long, he will be able to create something similar to a Ghost Domain by hand, based on his control over the Laws of Space.

Then they found an ordinary small animal, and the Human Path Puppet placed its hand on it.

Once again, the supernatural power of the Mummified Ghost within him was activated. After letting out a shrill scream, the small animal turned into a pile of rotting corpses, as if it had been dead for a long time.

This decaying Death Law is very different from the Rules of Death of the Coiling Dragon World.

Although he had not comprehended the Rules of Death, he had fought against Low-level God who had comprehended the Rules of Death, and even had a Death Godhead stored in his Space Ring.
