Chapter 1345 - 1312: Final Preparations
Chapter 1345: Chapter 1312: Final Preparations
Yang Jian put everything on the line to temporarily repel Meng Xiaodong from Room 301 in Dachuan City. This doesn’t mean he’s won; he has only secured twenty minutes of safety, so in the next twenty minutes, he has to think about his next move.
"Given the current situation, I still can’t escape this world. The constraints of this world on me still exist, but I’ve already erased most people’s memories of me. The only thing left is my father trapped in the Ghost Dream World at our old home. It seems this might be the last important line."
"If I cut this line, I believe I can definitely leave here."
At this moment, Yang Jian used the Ghost Domain, carrying a corpse of Meng Xiaodong nailed with a coffin nail, and directly headed to his old home.
"But leaving like this unscathed is definitely impossible. If I decide to break free now, Old Qin will most likely arrive early with the supernatural bus... So no matter what, I have to withstand the supernatural attack at 2:30."
Yang Jian deeply understood the malice of this world now.
The closer he gets to breaking free, the more resistance he faces.
"But now I have no means of turning the tables, my only hope is the Ghost Child."
Yang Jian thought to himself, "If I feed Meng Xiaodong’s supernatural power to the Ghost Child and combine it with this world’s Hungry Ghost’s ability, we might be able to withstand the upcoming attack, but only if this world doesn’t cheat."
While thinking.
Soon.
Yang Jian arrived at his familiar old home.
The village was peaceful and harmonious, and his arrival didn’t attract any attention because at this moment, he’s a complete stranger; he had erased all the villagers’ memories of him. In their minds, Yang Jian didn’t exist at all, only Yang Xiaotian trapped in the Ghost Dream World remembered him.
The Ghost Domain covered.
Soon, a cold corpse split in two, and two lifeless human heads appeared before Yang Jian.
One head was strange and mysterious, belonging to no known person.
The other head was very familiar, sharing about seven or eight similarities with Yang Jian.
Yang Xiaotian didn’t die because this head still existed. A part of the supernatural power maintained his consciousness in the Ghost Dream World while also ensuring this head didn’t rot.
"Hmm?"
But at this moment, two figures suddenly appeared within Yang Jian’s Ghost Domain.
At this moment, Wang Shanshan appeared with the Ghost Child.
"So it’s finally here." Yang Jian’s gaze shifted slightly, already prepared in his heart.
If the Ghost Child hadn’t appeared in these last few safe minutes, there would have been no chance of turning the tables. So in this final timeframe, the Ghost Child had to make an appearance, because the current situation differs from before, and now there’s a possibility of victory with the Ghost Child present.
He looked over the suddenly appearing Ghost Child.
Seemingly unchanged from before, just with a slightly different skin tone.
But Yang Jian already sensed the crisis emanating from the Ghost Child.
This indicated that the current Ghost Child had become an extremely terrifying ghost.
How many ghosts it had devoured during this time, even he didn’t know.
"Our latest time to leave here should be six o’clock, and now it’s only 2:15, but the Ghost Child brought me over, isn’t this a bit too early?"
Wang Shanshan walked over at this moment, with a bit of confusion on her face.
Yang Jian replied, "Things have changed significantly. This world’s most terrifying ghost-wielders have taken notice of me. They’ll show up at 2:30 and attack us. If we can’t withstand it, we won’t survive until six o’clock. The Ghost Child definitely knows this, so it came early."
"I see," Wang Shanshan said.
"But I’ve already done everything I needed to do. I’ve erased the memories of most familiar people, and this is the last one. But there’s still a fierce battle coming. If we win, we can leave here safely; if we don’t, we’ll die here." Although Yang Jian’s tone was indifferent, the implications were serious.
"Alright, there’s no time to talk more. We have to let the Ghost Child complete the final step of its growth now."
Yang Jian finished speaking, using the Ghost Domain to transfer Meng Xiaodong’s body in front of the Ghost Child.
"If it can seize this old woman’s supernatural power, the upcoming battle might be much easier. I believe the Ghost Child’s appearance is aimed at this corpse."
The Ghost Child stood motionless, its eyes eerily fixed on Meng Xiaodong’s corpse on the ground.
A coffin nail pinned the corpse down. Even an old monster from the Republic of China Period couldn’t regain mobility.
The Ghost Child moved at this moment, and it, along with Meng Xiaodong’s corpse, instantly disappeared from the spot.
Yang Jian’s ghost eyes saw it running into the nearby woods, preparing to devour Meng Xiaodong’s supernatural power alive.
"Alright, shall we start dealing with the Ghost Dream now?"
He squatted down at this moment, extending a charred Ghost Hand, touching that strange and cold corpse.
The next moment.
Ghost Flame began to burn on the corpse.
This was a corpse invaded by a ghost, bearing supernatural power. The Ghost Flame used this as fuel, spreading across the corpse.
Soon, the fire of the Ghost Flame blazed more fiercely.
Yang Jian used the Ghost Flame to cremate the Ghost Dream and Yang Xiaotian’s remaining Dead Man’s Head in this world, only this way could the nightmare in the Ghost Dream World be thoroughly ended, and with the nightmare ending, Yang Xiaotian in the dream would disappear as well.
Someone who had already died long ago, just relying on supernatural residue in the dream.
He was simply bringing this nightmare to an end now, also cutting off the final line.
With the continuous burning of the Ghost Flame, incredible changes appeared before Yang Jian and Wang Shanshan’s eyes.
The world, which had already started to blur, now seemed to become somewhat transparent. The forests were disappearing, the land was disappearing, and even the sky was starting to cast double images... The outline of an old wooden room appeared before their eyes.
The outline of this wooden room occupied the entire world. He and Wang Shanshan were as small as ants in the room.
"We’re about to leave the supernatural world." A trace of surprise appeared on Wang Shanshan’s fair face.
"That’s right, but it will take time." Yang Jian observed carefully and realized that although he and Wang Shanshan were being expelled by the world, it would take some time.
This was because there were still some people who had seen and remembered him and Wang Shanshan.
Those people were the ones who slipped through the net and had not been dealt with by Yang Jian.
But there wasn’t much time left, after all, he still had to face the forthcoming attack.
He glanced at the time again.
2:19 PM.
Eleven minutes left.
"What happens next has nothing to do with you. You’re ready to leave here. I will deal with the upcoming matters with the Ghost Child. You don’t have any supernatural power, so this world won’t specifically target you. As long as you’re not with me, you’ll be safe." Yang Jian then said to Wang Shanshan.
He also discovered some loopholes in this world.
That is, he was constantly being watched by the world’s ghost tamers, while Wang Shanshan, with the Ghost Child, encountered no obstacles.
Of course,
there might be another reason, which is that Wang Shanshan and the Ghost Child exist because of Yang Jian. As long as Yang Jian dies, Wang Shanshan and the Ghost Child will die too, so all threats on them are counted on Yang Jian alone.
"Okay, then I’ll find a place to hide and hope this ends smoothly." Wang Shanshan nodded and said.
She didn’t need to say any comforting words, after all, her life was connected to Yang Jian’s life.
Yang Jian said no more, as the Ghost Domain shifted and directly sent Wang Shanshan to a place far away.
It was a deserted suburban area, with no one around, preventing anyone from appearing to hurt her.
"2:20 PM, ten minutes left." Yang Jian was ready for everything.
At this moment, the corpse of the Ghost Dream had already been cremated.
"This is not a place to act; Ghost Child, come with me to leave here." Yang Jian decided to shift again to find a place for confrontation.
The Ghost Child emerged from the woods, extending its finger to write a few words on the ground: Go to a populated area.
Yang Jian took a look and immediately understood: "I see, you already possess Meng Xiaodong’s supernatural power of Infinite Invasion?"
Meng Xiaodong’s supernatural power needs living people as mediums.
The more people there are, the easier it is to find a medium.
In that case, Yang Jian decided not to find a deserted area but to look for a densely populated city.
After some thought.
Japan would do nicely.
The small land with many people makes it suitable for the Ghost Child to wield its power.
Having made his decision, Yang Jian used the Ghost Domain to transfer himself, disappearing from the spot.
Soon.
Yang Jian arrived in a strange city, although he didn’t know which city in Japan it was, he knew it was densely populated.
"Here it is then,"
Looking at the nearly disappearing blurred world, he decided to face the final wave of attack.
However, with his arrival, everyone in the city stopped in their tracks, put down everything in their hands, and bizarrely looked this way.
These were not living people; they were clearly fierce ghosts shedding their disguises.
At this critical moment, unreasonable changes were no longer concealed.
At the same time,
the Ghost Child who had arrived here disappeared, and soon the dark cyan haze began to spread, diffusing through the city at an unimaginable speed.
A middle-aged man who was standing still and watching this way began to change, his body disappeared, his existence erased, and then the form of the Ghost Child appeared beside him,
Beside him, a young man’s body also vanished bizarrely, and then a second Ghost Child appeared out of thin air.
...
Gradually, more and more people disappeared, and more and more Ghost Children appeared.
"Is the Ghost Child multiplying its numbers?" Yang Jian mused to himself.
Checked the time.
It’s already 2:25 PM.
Only five minutes left for the Ghost Child to multiply its numbers.
Yang Jian had done all he could. Now, all that remained was to leave everything to the Ghost Child, while he focused on self-preservation.
As long as he doesn’t die, given the current terrifying power of the Ghost Child, it should be enough to confront Old Qin.
