"The ghost is starting to slip out of control."
On that old spirit tablet, the strange photograph now showed Guo Fan. Yet at some point, the Guo Fan in the photograph had taken on a terrified, uneasy expression, revealing the fear and dread only the living possessed.
Because just now—
Guo Fan, a Ghost Tamer, had discovered that the ghost he controlled was rapidly losing control.
Before, Guo Fan could control the ghost's movements at any time. He could even replace parts of the ghost's body with his own whenever he wished.

An unbearable and terrifying problem seemed to have occurred at this critical moment.
"No, that's impossible. By my calculations, the ghost shouldn't have resurged this quickly. At the very least, there shouldn't have been any problem using its ability one more time."

It was as though he was the real ghost, while the thing outside holding the spirit tablet was the human.
The identities and positions of human and ghost had been reversed.
