After killing Luo Sheng and watching the others sink, he faced Sun Ren, who tried to merge with a powerful female corpse, but Yang Jian struck first and nailed him down.

• The recording responded to Yang Jian and declared that the curse had already begun.

Yang Jian identified the recording curse as a trap set by Luo Sheng and the Preacher, but the curse pulled him into Nightmare’s dream world. He entered a castle where his enemies planned to keep him trapped while his body slept in the real world.

• Yang Jian crushed the cursed radio, then let its supernatural effect put him to sleep after hiding his villa deep underground with his Ghost Domain.
• Yang Jian woke in an unfamiliar dream before a ruined European-style castle and realized his ghost hand and other supernatural powers were absent.
• Yang Jian inferred that the Preacher’s recording had made him sleep while Nightmare’s power dragged him into a separate dream world.
• Darkness and a collapsing courtyard forced Yang Jian toward the castle, where he concluded Nightmare had been harnessed by a Ghost Tamer.
• Luo Sheng and two allies spoke to Yang Jian from inside the castle, revealing that they meant to keep him trapped rather than kill him and planned to leave his body asleep for years.

Yang Jian remained trapped in the nightmare castle while its hidden group debated whether to kill him or keep him imprisoned. When three of them confronted him, he bluffed them into hesitating, then ran as soon as one charged, leaving his real plan unclear.

• Yang Jian taunted the unseen captors and guessed that they had hidden the nightmare world's source somewhere inside the castle.
• Luo Sheng opposed an immediate attack, but three others voted to hunt Yang Jian down while a golden-haired woman declined to join them.
• Luo Sheng and the three attackers found Yang Jian waiting in the castle hall, and Yang Jian confidently walked toward them despite having only one hand.
• Luo Sheng urged Liu to attack, but Liu hesitated and ordered the group to keep their distance as Yang Jian mocked their fear.
• A foreign man charged Yang Jian with an iron hammer, and Yang Jian immediately turned and ran, revealing that his confidence had been a bluff.

Yang Jian stalled the group hunting him inside the nightmare world while waiting for his vicious dog to arrive. After the nightmare world collided with Ghost Dream’s dreamworld, the dog appeared behind his pursuers, leaving them facing a sudden threat.

• Yang Jian evaded Liu, Luo Sheng, and the others, using his speed to keep them from catching him as he waited for his vicious dog.
• Yang Jian deduced that their control over the nightmare world was limited, and Luo Sheng confirmed that they had lured Ghost Tamers there to kill them.
• Yang Jian noticed that the scenery outside the castle had changed to resemble his hometown, recognizing that Ghost Dream’s dreamworld had collided with the nightmare world.
• Yang Jian deliberately changed routes until he reached a dead end, while Luo Sheng grew uneasy about his choices.
• Liu and the others paused to recover, and Yang Jian warned them to look behind them.
• Liu turned and saw Yang Jian’s enormous vicious dog in the corridor, making the foreign man freeze in shock.

Yang Jian used a pack of vicious dogs to attack Liu, Luo Sheng, and their foreign allies inside the Nightmare's world. A woman opened a door to help them escape, and Yang Jian decided to hunt the Nightmare's controller so the dogs could potentially take over its power.

• Luo Sheng and Liu argued over whether to attack Yang Jian or the vicious dog, but Yang Jian ordered the dog to attack them first.
• The vicious dog killed Buck despite the others slashing it, and Luo Sheng, Liu, and the remaining foreign man finally brought it down.
• Yang Jian revealed more vicious dogs surrounding them and ordered the pack to attack; a foreign woman opened a door, allowing Liu and the others to flee while the dogs pursued them.
• Yang Jian realized someone had altered the castle's layout and sent the dogs to search for the fleeing group.
• Yang Jian considered finding and killing the Ghost Tamer who controlled the Nightmare, hoping the vicious dogs could take over the Nightmare and expand their reach.

Liu and Luo Sheng fled Yang Jian’s vicious dogs through the shifting castle and escaped the Nightmare World with Kelly’s help, leaving her behind. Yang Jian then broke through the final altered wall and uncovered the meeting hall where Kelly had been hiding.

• Liu and Luo Sheng blamed each other for the failed attempt to deal with Yang Jian, then realized his dogs were spreading through the castle and decided to leave the Nightmare World.
• Kelly revealed that the meeting hall was the last safe place and offered to send Liu and Luo Sheng out while she hid from the dogs.
• Liu and Luo Sheng touched Kelly and vanished from the meeting hall, escaping the Nightmare World.
• Yang Jian identified the castle’s only unsearched area and ordered his vicious dogs to smash through the wall blocking it.
• Yang Jian’s dogs collapsed the wall, revealing the meeting hall behind it.

Yang Jian drove Luo Sheng and Liu from the Nightmare World and left a route connecting it to the Ghost Dream World, while Kelly remained hidden in the castle. After waking in Luo Sheng’s villa, Yang Jian considered using the firewood axe to kill his enemies through their mediums.

• Yang Jian searched the castle’s assembly hall but found no one, while Luo Sheng and Liu woke overseas and realized they had escaped the Nightmare World.
• A vicious dog emerged from a fountain and tore off Luo Sheng’s head before disappearing; Liu stitched Luo Sheng back together, and Luo Sheng refused to face Yang Jian again.
• Yang Jian concluded that the Nightmare World had a hidden controller, but decided to leave the dogs searching the castle while he returned to the Ghost Dream World.
• Yang Jian followed the supernatural road from the castle to the village, establishing a connection between the Nightmare World and the Ghost Dream World, then woke in Luo Sheng’s villa in Dachang City.
• Yang Jian checked the time and considered using the firewood axe to kill Luo Sheng through his medium and locate the mediums of other potential enemies.

Yang Jian returned to Daxing Entertainment City and resolved a dispute over his companions’ winnings by forcing He Long to promise twelve billion yuan. He Long arranged for He Yuelian to visit Dachang City in three days, leaving her chance to investigate her secret in Yang Jian’s hands.

• Yang Jian decided not to use Luo Sheng’s medium to attack him and left Luo Sheng’s residence through his Ghost Domain.
• Yang Jian returned to Daxing Entertainment City and found Jiang Yan, Xiong Wenwen, Zhang Xiangui, and Wang Bin arguing with the staff over the exchange of their winnings.
• Yang Jian took Manager Wang’s phone, told He Long to settle the debt, and secured a promise that twelve billion yuan would be transferred within three days.

• He Long told He Yuelian to visit Yang Jian in Dachang City and apologize, and she agreed after securing half a share of the inheritance.

Xiong Wenwen’s precognition failed to locate Zhang Wei, so Yang Jian searched with his Ghost Domain and found him being robbed in an alley. Yang Jian rescued him and the group prepared to return to Dachang City that night.

• Xiong Wenwen tried to predict Zhang Wei’s location but found that his precognition would not work on him.
• Yang Jian spread his Ghost Domain across the area and found Zhang Wei surrounded by robbers in an alley.
• Yang Jian blocked the robbers’ escape and learned that Zhang Wei had been lured there by men who had pretended to be friendly.
• Yang Jian kicked the robbers down from a distance, and Zhang Wei retrieved his guns and kicked each attacker once.
• Yang Jian told Zhang Wei to stay alert and said they needed to leave for Dachang City that night.

After returning to Dachang City, Yang Jian arranged research on the corpse oil he had brought back and learned that Caesar Hotel had become active again. He decided to investigate the hotel with Li Yang that afternoon, while other supernatural threats and the Spirit Extermination Society remained unresolved.

• Yang Jian gave Dr. Chen a bottle of corpse oil to study and arranged for Wang Yong to assist with the research.

• Yang Xiaohua told Yang Jian that the Spirit Extermination Society wanted to meet him, but he told her to make them wait.

Yang Jian and Li Yang joined Tong Qian at the sealed Caesar Hotel to investigate new supernatural activity. After learning that five young people had disappeared and a walking corpse had terrified the sole survivor, Yang Jian decided to wait until night to investigate the hotel’s recurring anomalies.

• Yang Jian and Li Yang entered the Caesar Hotel lockdown zone and discussed how earlier supernatural incidents had strained the Captains and threatened the country’s stability.
• Tong Qian met them inside and explained that she had observed strange nighttime activity but had encountered no ghosts during the day.
• Tong Qian showed them Huang Ying, a traumatized young woman who had hidden in a room after entering the hotel with five companions.
• Yang Jian used his ghost shadow to erase Huang Ying’s memories and send her safely outside, then learned that her five companions were missing and she had seen a walking corpse.
• Tong Qian described how the hotel came alive from ten at night until four in the morning, so Yang Jian chose to search cautiously and investigate the nighttime anomaly.
• Yang Jian recognized the walking corpse as strangely familiar and decided he needed paper to draw its face.
