This isn't the first time the Ghost Domain has been forcibly intruded upon.

He'd encountered it several times.

Because the Ghost Domain is merely an extension of the power of vengeful spirits, Ghost Domain cannot be disturbed in ordinary environments, making it an almost unsolvable existence.

But it's different for ghosts.

Ghosts of an excessively high level of terror can easily enter the Ghost Domain of other ghosts.

It's like a suppression on a purely hierarchical level.

Although Yang Jian only opened one of his Ghost Eye and maintained the Ghost Domain within a ten-meter radius, it was still quite embarrassing that he was forcibly forced in.

At the entrance to the restroom, a man of average height stood upright, staring expressionlessly at Yang Jian, who was turning around to look at him.

"It's you!"

Yang Jian's expression hardened as he realized that the person who had suddenly barged into his Ghost Domain was none other than Zhao Kaiming.

My phone just sent me a text message warning me to be careful of this guy.

"I thought it was that thing that came back, but it was you. You shouldn't have come here."

When Zhao Kaiming spoke, his tone was stiff and his expression was cold, quite different from his previous slightly crazed demeanor.

"I should be the one saying that. You're in a place where you shouldn't be, and you're alive, no, that's not right. You're not Zhao Kaiming."

Yang Jian suddenly frowned, becoming wary; "Zhao Kaiming doesn't have the ability to enter my Ghost Domain."

"I'm in a terrible state right now. That ghost is inside my body; this is the final step." Zhao Kaiming slowly raised his hand and looked at it. "Although it's not exactly control, it's more like cooperation, but this feeling is terrifying."

"Are you in the recovery phase?" Yang Jian.

"No, I'm different from most Ghost Tamer. I'm a normal person, with a normal body, living a normal life. I'm probably the only exception in the world who can become a ghost Ghost Tamer." Zhao Kaiming slowly walked over.

Ghost Domain couldn't create distance between itself and this guy.

Something terrifying and eerie seemed to be attached to his body, capable of suppressing even the Ghost Domain.

Yang Jian remained silent, but became even more vigilant.

Zhao Kaiming said, "I thought you were dead, and you should be dead too. Your existence might affect my next plan."

"Haven't you been curious about what I've been doing lately? I couldn't say before, but now I can. I'm going to resurrect the ghost inside me."

"Even ghosts need to be resurrected?" Yang Jian said coldly.

Ghosts can't die, so why would they need to be resurrected?

Zhao Kaiming said, "Isn't it necessary? Whether it's Ghost Eye, ghost blood, funeral shrouds, or ghost shadows, haven't you ever had any doubts about these things? Ghost Tamer can only control a part of a ghost. These things are like they've been deliberately scattered, limiting a complete ghost to its weakest state. No, it might not be just one complete ghost, but multiple complete ghosts."

"Ghost Tamer is like someone holding a puzzle piece. If these pieces are put together, what will they eventually form? Or are these pieces universal, and once all the pieces are collected, a result will always emerge?"

"Unbelievable, right? Actually, I didn't think of that at first either; this thing told me everything."

He pointed to his head.

"The Ghost Infant in Dachang City was a result of my deliberate indulgence. I could have dealt with it long ago, but that thing made me wait. I've waited until now and I finally understand what that thing meant. That thing needs a perfect puzzle piece, and the Ghost Infant is just a tool for it to collect those pieces."

"So you killed Ye Feng and He Chuan?" Yang Jian asked calmly.

But I was utterly shocked.

A ghost capable of influencing Zhao Kaiming's thinking seems to have given Zhao Kaiming a task, asking Zhao Kaiming to complete it for it.

The task is to raise the Ghost Infant, let it grow, and eventually seize the fully formed Ghost Infant through some means.

Thinking of this, he immediately remembered his human skin paper.

The unseen ghost and the human skin paper beside Zhao Kaiming seem to be of the same type.

My long-standing wariness of paper saffron was not wrong; that thing is terrifying.

Zhao Kaiming continued walking forward, "Ghosts need clothes too. Ye Feng's clothes are not bad, and He Chuan's ghost isn't much, but it'll make up the numbers. If you had a pair of Ghost Eye, that would be even better."

"So you want to kill me?" Yang Jian.

"It's not that I want to kill you, it's that it wants to kill you. I just helped it with a little bit of work. But it seemed to be very wary of you before, but now it doesn't seem to be." Zhao Kaiming pointed to his head and said.

Fear?

Yang Jian was stunned for a moment, then suddenly realized what was going on.

What it fears is probably not itself, but that piece of paper.

Unbeknownst to him, the human skin paper had become his protective charm.

However, the paper doll wasn't entirely without good intentions; it was also using itself to plan something.

However, before he could think further...

The next moment, Zhao Kaiming suddenly ran over, his speed was strangely frightening, and his numb and cold face was devoid of any emotion as he pressed himself directly in front of Yang Jian.

A cold hand gripped Yang Jian's neck.

His strength was unbelievable, like someone who had gone mad and forced out all of his body's potential.

Zhao Kaiming immediately opened his mouth.

Through his Ghost Eye, Yang Jian vaguely saw the outline of a hand slowly emerging from the depths of his throat, seemingly trying to invade Yang Jian's body and gouge out his eyes.

That's the ghost possessing Zhao Kaiming's body?

It should be said that it was an invisible ghost.

"Your story is compelling, and your plan is excellent, but you've overlooked one crucial issue."

Yang Jian's face turned cold, and he grabbed Zhao Kaiming's arm as well. With just a slight exertion, Zhao Kaiming's arm twisted strangely by half a circle and began to hang limply.

Zhao Kaiming's face remained numb and expressionless; he seemed to feel no pain.

"That means you shouldn't have met me before the plan succeeded." Yang Jian kicked him suddenly.

Zhao Kaiming was sent flying; he was no match for him.

He casually ripped off an arm.

No blood flowed out; instead, it writhed strangely on my hand.

As soon as Yang Jian let go, the arm seemed to be snatched away by an invisible force, flying back and reattaching to Zhao Kaiming's body.

"Holy crap, you can do that?"

This was the first time Yang Jian had ever seen such a situation. He had seen ghosts with resurrection abilities before; Wang Xiaoqiang's ghost could keep reviving him. But Zhao Kaiming was even more terrifying.

"It's no use. That ghost is possessing my body, you can't kill me. Nothing can kill me. But I didn't expect you to have changed so much. You're even more powerful than I imagined."

Zhao Kaiming stood up, as if the blows from before had caused him no pain or discomfort.

"You unkillable devil? Surely I can kill you?" Yang Jian walked over.

The ghost inside Zhao Kaiming's body was given no time to react.

The Ghost Domain allowed him to instantly appear beside Zhao Kaiming, casually pulling him a few times.

He removed Zhao Kaiming's hands and feet.

With his ghostly abilities, Yang Jian can easily remove any part of anyone's body, even ghosts.

However, as soon as he let go, these limbs flew back, and Zhao Kaiming was once again unharmed.

"It's no use. You've only removed my hands and feet, but you can't touch the ghost's hands and feet. I've become one with it. I can restore it as many times as I want. If you want to kill me, you'll have to kill the ghost too," Zhao Kaiming said.

Yang Jian's eyes flickered, and he directly took off Zhao Kaiming's head.

His head was still alive; he hadn't died.

"It seems I can't defeat you, but you can't kill me either. Don't waste your time on me. That ghost should be back by now. I can sense it. You can go and see for yourself if you don't believe me." Zhao Kaiming's head spoke.

Does that ghost refer to the source ghost?

Yang Jian opened one of his Ghost Eye again, looking out through a corner of the Ghost Domain.

Really.

He saw a blurry figure slowly walking towards him from outside the school.

This figure stood out conspicuously against the motionless Ghost Infant.

The source ghost has appeared.

But before he could observe further...

The source ghost stopped walking and suddenly looked up at this place.

It seems that Yang Jian, who was in the Ghost Domain, was seen by it.

No.

It means they were seen.

Yang Jian felt a chill run down his spine.

This guy's level of terror is too high; he saw right through the Ghost Domain.

Etc.

If I were seen, wouldn't the hungry ghost attack me next?

The patterns of attacks on people by the source ghosts are cumulative.

"I lack the means to imprison this source ghost, so there's no point in contacting it now. Let's leave here first and retrieve the coffin nails, lest we capsize."

"Zhao Kaiming, you go play with this guy for now. You're no match for me. I'll deal with you properly when I get back."

Yang Jian's eyes flickered, and he threw the head towards the source ghost. Then he used his Ghost Domain to leave the area.

With a flash of red light from the third-floor restroom window, Yang Jian disappeared.

A head fell out of the window and rolled to the side of the source ghost.

The source ghost glanced down and reached out to pick it up.

But his head flew off and returned to the toilet on the third floor.

The source ghost paused, seemingly hesitating whether to chase after Yang Jian or Zhao Kaiming, who was nearby.

Ultimately, Zhao Kaiming was closest, became its target.

"Yang Jian came here alone because he must want to imprison this Source Ghost. The fact that he dared to take action means he has a plan. His interaction with me just now did make him more terrifying than before. I deliberately leaked so much information to him, hoping he would realize what was happening."

Zhao Kaiming's mind returned to normal, but another thought popped into his head.

"I can't completely trust this ghost's words, so I need to change my plan and keep a backup plan. After this ghost takes over the body of the starving ghost, I'll fulfill my conditions, resurrect my family, and then use Yang Jian to imprison both ghosts together, so that this ghost will disappear from my life forever, to prevent any irreversible changes from happening in the future because of this ghost."

He schemed against everyone, even the ghosts around him, all to achieve his own ends.
