Irresistible Terror

Ye Feng immediately regretted it as soon as he stepped into the unknown alley.

As soon as he entered, the burial shroud on his body shrank instantly, clinging tightly to his skin, as if it had sensed fear.

He understood that this was not the shroud feeling fear, but rather a reaction to one of its own kind.

There must be a ghost in this alley.

Ye Feng looked back again, and sure enough, just as he had thought, the path behind him had disappeared, followed by a dense, dark blue-black expanse, like an oppressive abyss that made it hard to breathe, forcing him to continue forward.

"That Zhao Kaiming is Ghost Tamer in Dachang City. He must know about all the supernatural events in Dachang City. The fact that the three of us encountered a ghost right away when we came here on patrol is definitely not a coincidence. Zhao Kaiming deliberately lured me and He Chuan here."

"Is he trying to use someone else to do his dirty work? Because I previously refused his offer to join forces with him against Yang Jian?"

"No, impossible. The current conflict isn't about Yang Jian, but about this large-scale supernatural event that's engulfing the entire city. At a time like this, Zhao Kaiming has no reason to fight amongst himself, unless he has another ulterior motive."

Ye Feng remained calm; although nervous, he continued to analyze the situation rationally.

To become Ghost Tamer and survive to this day, one must possess certain essential qualities.

"Never mind, let's get out of here first. The longer I stay here, the more uneasy I'll feel."

Ye Feng quickened his pace, having no choice but to grit his teeth and cross the alley.

The alley was just an ordinary city lane, lined with various shops and convenience stores, but at this time all the shops were closed, the street was deserted, and even the streetlights were off.

This familiar street was nothing unusual in itself, but to Ye Feng, it seemed eerie.

He had been walking for at least ten minutes, and at his pace he should have left the street long ago, yet he remained trapped there, unable to find a way out.

"Could it be the Ghost Domain? Something as annoying as that Yang Jian." Suddenly, Ye Feng stopped in his tracks. He felt there was no need to continue.

If you're truly trapped in Ghost Domain, you can't get out by walking.

We have to use some special methods.

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Feng gritted his teeth and lifted a corner of his burial shroud. His pale skin was covered with wounds, all of them bloody teeth marks, as if he had been torn apart day and night by something.

A strange set of teeth was growing on his body in a way that seemed completely out of place.

These teeth, sharp and blackened, emanated a putrid stench and were writhing on his body as if they were alive.

However, when Ye Feng tried to bite open this Ghost Domain as he had done before, he suddenly discovered that his ability had failed.

It's not that it failed, but rather that he wasn't within the Ghost Domain.

"How is this possible? How could this happen?" Ye Feng was stunned.

This place isn't Ghost Domain?

His last resort had failed, which began to cause him some panic.

As Ghost Tamer controls two demons, he is fearless of other Ghost Tamer, but he is still extremely wary of a real demon.

The shroud can protect him, but not for long. When the time comes, he will die under the shroud and become a ghost wearing a shroud.

We must find a way out.

Ye Feng broke out in a cold sweat. He urged himself to keep walking forward, glancing left and right, trying to find something unusual.

However, because she was walking too fast and it was too dark, she seemed to trip over something, causing her to stumble and almost fall.

"What is that?" He quickly shone the light on it.

The next moment, his eyes narrowed sharply as he kicked a mangled, bloody head that was now only half its original size, which rolled to the side.

The head looked like it had been gnawed away by something; it was a bloody mess, unrecognizable.

"Whose head is this?" Ye Feng frowned deeply.

Others were terrified of these corpses, but he wasn't. Compared to ghosts, these dead, motionless corpses were as cute as young ladies, so he even dared to walk over and shine a light on their heads to examine their features.

But when he got closer and saw the remaining features of the half-human head, his eyes suddenly narrowed.

The face on this person's head is that of He Chuan.

That's right, it's He Chuan, who disappeared from my side before.

"That's impossible. He's Ghost Tamer, after all. Even if he encountered a ghost, there's no reason for him to die so quickly. Even a toad would hop around a couple of times before it dies."

Ye Feng wondered if he was seeing things, so he reached out to touch it and feel the temperature of the head.

If it really is He Chuan's head, then since he hasn't been dead for long, his head should still be warm.

However, as he reached out, suddenly, a small, bluish-black arm appeared from nowhere and grabbed his head first.

"Um?"

Ye Feng's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly took several steps back.

At that moment, he saw a child with a bluish-black body and empty eye sockets standing in front of a shop, holding He Chuan's broken and incomplete head.

"Ghost Infant in its second stage."

This information immediately popped into his mind.

Professor Wang's deduction is correct. Ghost Infant have been born in this city long ago, and these ghostly things have been hiding in various corners of the city, only to have them fully erupt now.

"There's no need to worry about this damn thing. My priority now is to find a way to get out of here."

Ye Feng's thinking was clear. He slowly retreated, not wanting to provoke this strange thing.

Unless this Ghost Infant deliberately provokes me.

The Ghost Infant holding He Chuan's mangled head simply tilted its head and looked at Ye Feng, without making any move.

But the eeriness emanating from those dark, empty eye sockets sent chills down one's spine.

I don't know if this thing has eyes or not, or if it can see itself.

"They weren't watching me? Or is the burial shroud protecting me again?" Ye Feng thought to himself, but the next moment his whole body suddenly stiffened, and a chill instantly enveloped him.

"Splash!"

"Bang bang~!"

Various sounds suddenly came from the nearby shops with their doors tightly closed, as if the doors were being pounded on and something was trying to come out.

One shop is like this, two shops are like this, three, four. The whole row of shops is like this.

Ye Feng stood alone in this deserted, dimly lit alley. He couldn't get out, nor could he escape. He could only look around in fear at the shops that were making noise, like a headless fly.

Suddenly, the door of a shop opened.

A dark blue-green figure emerged from inside.

"Ghost Infant in the third stage?" Ye Feng's forehead was covered in cold sweat; he seemed to have unwittingly stumbled into some terrible place.

But that wasn't all. As the figure slowly emerged, the doors of other shops opened one after another.

One by one, figures emerged from the various shops. These people varied in height, gender, and appearance.

The only thing they had in common was their bluish-black skin and their dark, empty eyes. As they slowly walked towards us, they looked like corpses that had been dead for many days.

These are all Ghost Infant who have grown up.

At this moment, all the ghosts came to the street, making the originally deserted street somewhat crowded, but at the same time, the surrounding coldness and darkness became even deeper.

"What a joke, where did all these come from?" Ye Feng felt his whole body trembling.

Tension, fear, trembling—all sorts of emotions surged forth.

At that moment, he even felt despair, and his usual arrogance and confidence vanished instantly.

Run!

That was the only word in Ye Feng's mind.

Whether or not we can escape this place, the first thing we need to do is get rid of these terrifying Ghost Infant.

However, no matter how he ran, the Ghost Infant that emerged from nearby gradually drew closer to him, as if the distance between them never increased.

He could only sense that the burial shroud he was wearing was gradually becoming less able to protect him.

A bone-chilling cold seeped into his body from all directions. The shoulder that had been patted by something earlier was now even more painful, as if something was gripping his shoulder, causing not only excruciating pain but also seemingly dragging his body, making it difficult for him to escape.

Finally, that distance was brought close enough.

A dark blue figure suddenly reached out and grabbed Ye Feng.

But the next moment, it was quickly withdrawn.

Ye Feng glanced at it in horror and found a blurry handprint on his ghost clothes.

Before he could react, another hand reached out from nearby and grabbed him.

They grabbed it briefly and then quickly let go.

Another handprint appeared on his body.

He understood that it was the burial shroud he was wearing that was still working, protecting him from the attacks of these Ghost Infant. If he hadn't been wearing this shroud, he would have died the first time he was attacked.

However, ghosts from nearby areas gradually swarmed in, their numbers increasing to a chilling degree.

The streets seemed to be packed.

Gradually, Ye Feng found himself with nowhere to go; he was blocked off from all sides.

The worst-case scenario still happened.

Ye Feng was surrounded by ghosts, so tightly that there was no escape. Figures moved about in the dark, bluish-green haze. Heaven knows how many ghosts this city has bred.

This is an unsolvable dead end.

"Heh, heh heh." Ye Feng stopped running and stood there, laughing bitterly.

There's no chance anymore.

Even they themselves have encountered this unsolvable dead end. Once these ghosts leave, it's only a matter of time before the entire city suffers annihilation.

There is less and less space left for myself around me.

"Hmm? That's..."

Suddenly, Ye Feng saw something in the shadowy, swaying figures. His expression changed slightly, and he hurriedly took out his phone to send a text message. If he still had any hope of surviving, he could only wait for someone to come and rescue him.

Moments later, countless ghostly figures converged, engulfing the area like a tidal wave.

When the gloom dissipated, the Ghost Infant hidden in the dark blue aura disappeared, but Ye Feng also vanished at the same time.

A cell phone, trampled to pieces, was left on the ground.

The screen lit up faintly.

A message indicates that the message was sent successfully.
