The protagonist got played, Ling Yi opened his Ghost Domain (+1, thanks for the update-request votes)

"What's your cheat code?" Xiao Qiuqiu asked Lü Bo again at this moment.

After hesitating for a moment, Lü Bo said, " The Golden Bell Shield Infinite Upgrade System offers three random tasks every day. Completing these tasks will continuously upgrade the Golden Bell Shield's level."

"I never thought that you could get a cheat code after you died, and your cheat code is much more powerful than mine. My Golden Bell Shield can only defend, and my only way to attack is to brute force with my fists."

Ling Yi, Da Zhou, and Xiao Qiuqiu exchanged glances, a sly glint in their eyes.

At this moment, the group had arrived at the true entrance to the Abyss Cave.

Looking down from above, all they could see was a sea of red light, and within that Guangzhi, countless Ghoul.

The screams rose in waves, sounding extremely shrill and eerie.

A scorching heat and a pungent sulfur smell rose from the cave entrance.

"Could this be the Legend entrance to Hell?" Da Zhou frowned.

"Who cares what it is, just seal it off already, it looks really evil," Xiao Qiuqiu said.

"How do we seal it?" Lü Bo asked Ling Yi.

"For now, we can only use Physics sealing. Since they were able to block their way with a pile of rubble from the explosion, Physics sealing should be effective."

As Ling Yi spoke, he activated his powerful Telekinesis, causing the surrounding ground to rotate and compress inwards. The hole, originally one meter in diameter, began to shrink rapidly under the immense force until it was completely sealed off.

Lü Bo was astonished; this power was terrifying.

A dozen minutes later, Ling Yi and his group finally emerged from the mine.

This made Shen Bin and the others waiting outside light up, but when they saw Ling Yi, Shen Bin's pupils shrank.

He knew that Ling Yi Ling Yi had become Ghost Body, and he even knew that there was a close relationship between the Da Zhou and Ling Yi.

But now, Ling Yi looks like an ordinary person, completely different from the Ghost Body he learned about in the information.

"Mr. Ling Yi, hello, could you explain why you are currently...?"

"I'm planning to activate the Ghost Domain in Baidu City." Ling Yi's words immediately made Shen Bin tense.

"Impossible!"

"Don't argue yet, let me finish what I have to say."

"No matter what, we will not allow you to harm ordinary people," Shen Bin said firmly.

"Who said I was going to harm ordinary people? I just said I was going to activate the Ghost Domain."

"I want to build a city where humans and Ghost can coexist, and where neither can harm the other."

Shen Bin frowned and asked, "Is this even possible?"

"Don't you know that the rules of the Ghost Domain are entirely determined by the owner himself?"

"If I say it's okay, then it's okay, and you can't stop me."

Shen Bin frowned, unsure of what to do. He instinctively felt that this was a complete fantasy.

There was no need for Ling Yi to explain too much to him. He turned around and was about to fly away, but at this moment, the little ball suddenly let out an "ouch" and threw the red envelope with the word "" in his hand to the ground.

Suddenly, the red envelope burst into blue Huoyan and turned to ashes before it even hit the ground.

Xiao Qiuqiu had thrown this red envelope several times before, but no matter how she threw it, it would mysteriously return to her hand.

Now it has turned to ashes on its own.

Xiao Qiuqiu asked in surprise, "Great! I'm finally rid of that thing! Am I okay now?"

"You're dreaming. Quite the opposite, they're here."

As Ling Yi finished speaking, a dark red cloud suddenly fell from mid-air.

After landing, the cloud churned and instantly transformed into a middle-aged man with a pale face, dressed in a long black robe.

"Look, your husband has arrived," Ling Yi said with a smile.

"That's not my husband, Da Zhou, help!" Xiao Qiuqiu hid behind Da Zhou, terrified.

"I have obtained the marriage certificate from the Hokage Ghost King. I will marry you at midnight. My wife, come home with your husband."

Hokage Ghost King? That name... is too easy to misunderstand.

If you didn't know better, you'd think this guy was Hokage.

But no matter how you look at it, this guy doesn't seem like a modern person... a modern ghost.

"I don't want to!" Xiao Qiuqiu shook its head desperately.

" Lü Bo, go and confront him!" Ling Yi shoved Lü Bo and said.

"What? Are you sure? This is the Ghost King! It sounds incredibly powerful, doesn't it?" Lü Bo asked Ling Yi incredulously.

"Your Golden Bell Shield should be able to withstand it. Let's wear him down first, and then I'll make my move."

"Hey, I feel like you're targeting me. Wouldn't it be simpler for you to just attack directly?"

Despite saying that, Lü Bo still walked towards the Hokage Ghost King because his system had given him another mission. The mission was to fight the Hokage Ghost King one-on-one, and regardless of whether he won or lost, he would be rewarded with a +10 level to his Golden Bell Shield.

+10! That's amazing! This is the highest reward he's received since getting the system.

If he were alone, he would definitely turn around and run away; he would abandon the mission without even thinking about it.

But with Ling Yi and the others around, it actually became an opportunity for him.

At least Ling Yi won't just stand by and watch him die, right? Hmm... probably not.

" Big Shot, keep an eye on things!"

"Go for it! Show some spirit! You're the Protagonist, go for it!"

Lü Bo frowned, "You're the Protagonist, your whole family are the Protagonist."

Shen Bin, standing beside him, twitched his lips. Ling Yi's personality seemed to Taiyi from what he had imagined.

Judging from his posture just now, he was clearly very domineering, but now he's acting a bit... silly?

He whispered to Da Zhou beside him, " Da Zhou, is Ling Yi always like this?"

"That's about right, you'll get used to it."

Lü Bo walked up to the Hokage Ghost King, not knowing what to say, so he simply slapped the Hokage Ghost King across the face.

This slap stunned the Hokage Ghost King, followed by boundless rage.

"You ants are courting death!"

The Hokage Ghost King unleashed his power, his hands forming claws as he lunged at Lü Bo.

The claws of the Hokage Ghost King are its most powerful weapons, imbued with terrifying Ghost Qi, capable of Mountain Splitting and shattering rocks.

"When!"

A golden bell appeared on Lü Bo's body. Although the golden bell flickered constantly as it was being grabbed, and looked like it was about to break at any moment, it actually withstood the Ghost King's claw attack.

"No wonder you dared to provoke me; you do have some tricks up your sleeve, but that's not enough."

The Ghost King's claws howled as he repeatedly struck the golden bell, which remained shaky and on the verge of collapse, yet it just wouldn't break.

Lü Bo wasn't idle either; he kept punching and slapping the Ghost King relentlessly.

"I'm a little disappointed!" Da Zhou said, shaking his head.

"What are you disappointed about?" Shen Bin asked.

"He's supposed to be the Ghost King, so why is his fighting style so... low? There's no special effects at all. Didn't they say the Ghost King has Ghost Domain? Why isn't he unleashing it?"

Shen Bin looked at Ling Yi. After Da Zhou's words, he was also very curious and hoped that Ling Yi could give an explanation.

"His Ghost Domain was probably taken over by another Ghost King, most likely the Ghost King from Red City City."

"Can the Ghost King's Ghost Domain devour each other? Doesn't that mean the Ghost King in Red Mountain City has become even more powerful?" Shen Bin asked worriedly.

Ling Yi did not answer, because at this moment Lü Bo was being chased around by the Hokage Ghost King, and his Golden Bell Shield was finally shattered by the Ghost King's grabs.

Ling Yi was somewhat disappointed; the Protagonist was much weaker than he had imagined.

Unless his Golden Bell Shield mutates after reaching a certain level, Lü Bo will forever be a passive Protagonist gets beaten up, which would be really pathetic.

" Dream Entry!"

Ling Yi waved at the Ghost King, who had been frantically chasing Lü Bo, and the Ghost King collapsed to the ground, then... started snoring.

Panting Lü Bo turned around and kicked the Ghost King a few times before looking at Ling Yi with a resentful expression and saying, " Big Shot, you're targeting me."

"I'm leaving!" Ling Yi said to Da Zhou, and the next moment, he transformed into a stream of light and entered Da Zhou's phone.

The White Mountain Abyss Mine incident continues to escalate online, becoming a topic of national and even global concern. As a result, this past week has brought Ling Yi a massive amount of Fear Points.

It wasn't until today that it was finally removed from the trending topics list by a new one.

The fact that Red Mountain City had become a ghost town could no longer be kept secret, and the news exploded online.

After a week, Ling Yi's accumulated Fear Points finally allowed his Ghost Body to reach level 15.

"So, you really want to turn Baidu City into a ghost town?" Da Zhou asked in a cold voice.

In the Da Zhou, Lü Bo has officially joined STE and has been investigating the Ghost King of Red City City.

Red City City has become a paradise for Ghost, with nearly 600,000 people turned into half-human, half-ghost monsters.

"I've explained it countless times, my Ghost Domain is different from those other Ghost Domain, why won't you believe me?"

"I asked the head of the Mount Mao Sect, and they said the Ghost Domain is a forbidden zone for the living, the source of evil spirits. Stop lying to me. What is your purpose? Or are you like those Ghost King, using the souls of the living to enhance your cultivation?"

Ling Yi looked at the aggressive Da Zhou, his expression gradually turning cold!

It seems I've been performing rather poorly in this world. No, not just in this world, but ever since the last world, my performance has been consistently poor.

He was a visitor from another world, and seemed to care too much about these natives.

Ling Yi asked himself a question: Which is more important, the plot or the points?

In other words, is the novel's popularity more important, or is it more important to seize the time to escape your own cage?

Ling Yi must make a choice!

Ling Yi ultimately chose points.

There are three reasons:

First, Ling Yi doesn't know when the author will cut himself off, which is terrifying. Once the author cuts himself off, he's completely finished!

Secondly, Ling Yi has become increasingly distrustful of the author's ability to arrange plots, and the author is on a downward spiral.

Third, his path in the storyline is heavily influenced by the author; every world will present him with some utterly absurd plot points, and Ling Yi has had enough!

Having figured all this out, Ling Yi's figure vanished from before the Da Zhou and reappeared in the sky above Baidu City the next moment.

It was daytime, and Ling Yi's figure was spotted by many people. Many took out their phones to take pictures, and some even started live streaming.

" The Netherworld Ghost Domain, open..."
