Harnessing a Second Ghost

Yang Jian was quite certain that there were at least two ghosts inside the old woman in front of him.

The headless ghost he released at the beginning, and the corpse fluid in Ye Jun's body.

As for whether there was a third ghost inside his body, Yang Jian could not confirm.

Because he had only seen the characteristics of two types of vengeful spirits; he hadn't seen the characteristics of the third type, and given the current situation, it seemed there was no chance of seeing them again.

The paper on the ground was devouring the old woman.

The old woman who fell to the ground was expressionless and numb. Her withered hands gripped the ground, as if she didn't really want to be pulled into the human skin paper.

If ghosts also experience fear, this headless ghost must be terrified right now.

Having finally been released from the golden box and given a new body, and even the ability to control other ghosts, it was ultimately swallowed whole by a piece of human skin.

However, this struggle was futile.

Human skin paper seems to be the nemesis of evil spirits; it can suck the ghost in as soon as it comes into contact with it.

This old woman's terror level can no longer be classified as C. Her headless ghostly figure, which controls other ghosts, is at least classified as B, or even A.

After all, this old woman had even managed to enter Yang Jian's Ghost Domain just now.

"Even if I raised a ghost of this level, it wouldn't be able to resist this human skin paper? My previous suspicion and wariness of this human skin paper were correct." Yang Jian looked at the harmless human skin paper and felt a strange chill and fear.

I was wary of this human skin paper before because I was worried that it was too eerie and terrifying.

But in this desperate situation, we have no choice but to make this deal with it.

Only.

What Yang Jian feared was what would happen to this human skin paper after it came into contact with other ghosts.

After all, this is what the paper saffron has always been pursuing.

"Furthermore, if it possesses such terrifying abilities, why has it remained peacefully by my side all this time? I also have Ghost Eye within me, making me a ghost myself. Shouldn't it be able to devour things as well? Or is there some kind of limitation on it? If so, what exactly is this limitation?"

Yang Jian watched as the old woman was gradually sucked in, his expression shifting unpredictably.

He dared not shut down the Ghost Domain at this moment.

The situation is now more complicated than before.

Because of the added unknown terror.

In no time at all.

The old woman's body was already half-sucked into the human skin paper, and she was still struggling.

But it was to no avail.

Yang Jian felt that this piece of paper was like a trap to catch ghosts, and the old woman was the prey that had fallen into the trap and was about to be captured.

Even the power of a vengeful ghost seems to have no effect on this piece of paper.

That's all.

The old woman was slowly pulled into the paper dollop, and all her struggles were in vain.

Yang Jian didn't offer any help; he simply watched the situation unfold with a chilling expression.

Because both the headless ghost and this human skin paper were released by him personally.

The matter at hand was also orchestrated by him.

This was the only way he could try to deal with the upcoming Huanggang Village incident.

Otherwise, there is only one dead end ahead.

"I can only try to believe this piece of paper one more time. I have no other choice now. Although the balance has been restored, it is not in my hands, but in the hands of this headless ghost." Yang Jian's expression changed erratically.

"This kind of balance is not what I want. Neither the headless ghost, nor that mysterious evil spirit, nor that Plague Ghost are things I can handle."

"Three ghosts of this level in Huanggang Village is simply hopeless. So the only way to ensure my safety and whether I can leave this place is to find a breakthrough by opening up a gap in the headless ghost and regain some of the initiative. My only worry now is whether this human skin paper will cooperate with me."

It is foolish to believe in paper made from human skin.

But in dire situations, you really don't have many options.

Now.

The old woman's entire body had disappeared into the human skin paper, leaving only her head sticking out. As she continued to devour it, even that head eventually vanished completely.

It completely entered the human skin paper.

Not a trace was left.

It was as if they had completely left this world and entered an unknown place.

"This scene looks like the ghost has been completely devoured." Yang Jian gasped slightly.

I'll say it again.

That's terrifying!

Etc?

Yang Jian suddenly realized he seemed to have forgotten something, and his face darkened. "I promised to make a deal with the human skin paper before, and I only gave it one ghost. But now, it has at least two ghosts, or even more. This is too much of a benefit. Can the deal still go ahead?"

It cannot be determined.

The initiative is no longer in our own hands, but in the hands of this paper doll.

But right now, the paper that swallowed the old woman doesn't seem to have changed anything special.

A dark brown human skin lay quietly on the ground.

There was no movement, and nothing seemed amiss.

And now, the time for the Ghost Domain has unknowingly come to an end.

Yang Jian began to feel the Ghost Eye within his body becoming restless, with an urge to revive.

His eyes were already out of control, wandering wildly through his body, sometimes emerging from a gash in his chest, sometimes tearing open the flesh on his back, and sometimes reaching the soles of his feet. Even in this state, he dared not retract the Ghost Domain.

The balance has been temporarily restored.

The sky brightened, and the house that had disappeared and was used as a mourning hall reappeared.

But Yang Jian had not forgotten the curse that meant certain death if one was alone.

Once he leaves the Ghost Domain, will he die at the hands of that mysterious, ferocious ghost?

Yang Jian dared not try it because he felt the possibility was very high.

The current situation is at best back to how it was when we first entered the village, back when the three Ghost Tamer died tragically one after the other.

Yang Jian didn't want to be the next one.

He fell silent for a moment, calmly gazing at the human skin paper before him.

At the same time, the Ghost Eye within the body are gradually reviving.

Am I really going to die here?

He wasn't afraid, just somewhat resentful.

After all, it's really hard to accept that all the hard work has been for nothing.

"Zhou Zheng is right. For people like us, death might be a relief. Struggling to live in this hellish world is just too hard." Yang Jian raised his head and looked at the sky that was already brightening in the distance.

"It's time to start preparing for the worst."

He turned around, preparing to lock himself inside the body bag.

At least leave behind a complete corpse, so that you don't become Ghost Slave after death, or you won't find peace in the afterlife.

Moreover, putting the Ghost Eye into a body bag can also imprison it.

Consider it a way of reducing the harm caused by a vengeful ghost in this world.

If there's still time, I should call my mom.

Although there isn't much money left, there are still a few million, which should be barely enough for my mother's retirement.

After all this fuss, what was it all for?

I should have died in that toilet back in school.

Yang Jian gave a wry smile and shook his head slightly.

But just as he turned around and took two steps, he noticed a dark shadow flowing down the ground from behind him like water, slowly merging into his figure.

This shadow has no head.

Headless ghost?

Yang Jian's eyes narrowed, and he subconsciously turned around to look.

A line connected him to the paper figure amidst the shadows.

At that moment, a line of writing appeared on the human skin: I have successfully made a deal with that human skin, and now I will begin to control the second vengeful ghost.

Controlling a second vengeful ghost?

Yang Jian's eyes narrowed.

Does this person intend to keep their previous promise?

What exactly is it after? Is it simply trying to help itself? Or does it not want to die here?

Regardless of the circumstances.

But Yang Jian sensed it.

The headless ghost began to invade his body.

A chill ran down my spine.

And his own shadow began to slowly rise up.

The headless ghost was gradually merging into itself.

But if that's the case, will I control the headless ghost, or will the headless ghost control me?

Normally speaking...

It should be the latter; Yang Jian couldn't possibly be fighting a ghost for control of his body.

There must be a way.

He turned abruptly back to the side of the human skin paper.

The writing disappeared again.

The method to control the headless ghost has been revealed.

"Will this work?" Yang Jian's expression hardened, somewhat uncertain.
