Mysterious Resurrection: Starting with Controlling Sadako

Chapter 268 Temple Appears Through the Mist
Wang Liang, carrying a blood-stained bone spear, moved forward through the thick fog, having learned from Yang Jian's experience of being moved away.

As he moved, he kept an eye on the obviously damp mud on the ground, avoiding it to prevent stepping into the muddy water and being abruptly moved.

Being moved around now is pointless; it only slows him down and keeps him trapped here.

After walking for a while, a strange change occurred ahead of Wang Liang: a blurry human figure appeared in the fog.

However, unlike the previous test and the situation Yang Jian encountered on the other side, the figure in the fog did not immediately become clear.

Instead, its figure swayed in the fog, becoming slightly clearer before blurring again.

The figure then walked deeper into the fog, seemingly trying to get away from the area and disappear into the thick fog.

Wang Liang's eyes lit up when he saw the blurry figure. This time, he was seeing this vengeful ghost, who resembled Sadako, with his own eyes.

But after the blurry figure appeared and then gradually moved away from him, Wang Liang, though puzzled, immediately took action. He had to stop the ghost and examine it carefully.

The slit-mouthed woman's demonic domain instantly pierced through the thick fog separating the man and the demon, dispelling the fog and revealing the white-clad female ghost facing him but gradually moving away in a backward posture.

The tall, sinister figure of the Slit-Mouthed Woman appeared before the white-clad female ghost in the ghost realm, her mouth twisted and torn to the roots of her ears, revealing bloody fangs and gums.

It opens and closes, emitting a series of chilling sounds that seem to come from hell, mixed with eerie laughter.

Am I beautiful?

The vengeful ghost's question was a terrifying curse; the moment the voice rang out, it had already established a connection with the white-clad female ghost.

The female ghost, resembling Sadako, was immediately stopped in her tracks as she retreated. Her body trembled as she tried to break free, but it was as if she had sunk into a quagmire, bound by invisible chains, and unable to move.

And without the female ghost needing to answer, the slit-mouthed woman's question was already out, and the fatal attack was released.

A terrifying attack struck, arguably the most terrifying of all the supernatural attacks Wang Liang had ever experienced, aside from the overlapping mirror-shattering attacks.

The white-clad female ghost, whose body had been struggling and trembling, suddenly stiffened, and her disheveled black hair immediately drooped down.

The swollen hands exposed outside the white clothes also rotted rapidly, and several pieces of rotten flesh fell off and onto the ground, but the body was still bound and stood stiffly in place.

'Huh? That's it?'

The suppression was too simplistic. Wang Liang frowned, encountering the same question Yang Jian had after suppressing the female ghost.

He took a step forward and instantly arrived in front of the white-clad female ghost in the ghost realm, grabbing her by the neck.

The figure of the slit-mouthed woman beside her disappeared, but then transformed into an invisible, chilling aura that seeped into the body of the white-clad female ghost and forcibly took control.

'Ghost servants transformed from corpses.'

Wang Liang drew a conclusion, and with a tremor of his hand, he swept away the black hair on the ghost slave's face, revealing the swollen face of the giant official. His pale mouth was torn to the roots of his ears, forming a terrible rift.

'Furthermore, her body has been corrupted and assimilated by a supernatural force, which is why she resembles Sadako. It's like a bizarre infection from a primordial demon. This person didn't originally look like this; now, her internal organs have all dissolved, turning into a pool of murky water.'

After figuring it out, Wang Liang didn't linger on the corpse any longer and continued walking forward, still carrying the ghost slave's body in his hand.

He wanted to try and see if he could take the ghost servant with him to attract other changes, instead of just wandering aimlessly in the thick fog. He hadn't even seen the temple on the mountaintop yet.

Just as he was thinking this, after walking a little further, Wang Liang immediately noticed that the thick fog around him was rapidly thinning. Sure enough, something was happening. Wang Liang was startled, but he slowed down his pace, becoming more alert. However, the speed at which the fog was dissipating did not change because of his slower pace.

As the surrounding fog thinned and visibility improved, some gravel began to appear in front of Wang Liang, no longer just damp ground.

One of the pebbles is roughly half a head, and it is still relatively intact. It can be seen that the pebbles on the ground should have originally been a complete stone statue, but it was broken.

'The stone statues in the ghost temple; if you are stared at by one, your body will turn to stone and become a new statue.'

Wang Liang immediately thought of this intelligence: there was a petrified eye on the stone that resembled half a head.

When Wang Liang saw it, it was already as if he was making eye contact with it, which is the tricky part of releasing supernatural phenomena through eye contact.

However, Wang Liang was not petrified by this, and he did not even feel any supernatural attack on him.

'Is it because it shattered? It looks like it was done by that elite demon-controlling squad from the island nation.'

Wang Liang walked over, and the rifted female ghost domain that had been covering him for four or five meters also covered the rubble. The next second, a piece of rubble shaped like half a head appeared in his hand.

He sensed it, but couldn't discern anything; the statue seemed to have become just an ordinary stone after being smashed.

Wang Liang roughly shoved the stone into the woman's mouth, then, holding the bone spear in one hand and the woman's corpse in the other, continued walking forward.

As the fog thinned, even without the suppression and dissipation of the Ghost Domain, Wang Liang's visible range was now several tens of meters. However, Wang Liang still controlled the Ghost Domain to cover a distance of four or five meters around him.

As Wang Liang continued walking forward, the soil in front of him was covered with blue bricks, forming a clear bluestone path that stretched into the still-lingering mist in the distance.

Wang Liang stepped onto the blue brick steps. The bricks were damp and slippery, and an ordinary person could easily slip and fall on them, but other than that, there was nothing special about them.

Even though he stepped on it, Wang Liang wasn't teleported away, so he could continue up the steps with peace of mind.

The air around us was damp and chilly, but nothing unusual happened; the dampness neither intensified nor lessened.

Wang Liang walked along the winding blue brick path, and later he could vaguely see the temple shrouded in a thin mist in the distance.

After stepping onto the last step, Wang Liang arrived at the top of the mountain, where a temple appeared before him.

A light mist enveloped the temple, but it didn't obstruct the view much, unlike the thick fog on the mountainside. Instead, it added a touch of haziness and tranquility to the temple.

Apart from the bluestone path Wang Liang had just come up from and the area around the temple where the fog was slightly lighter, the rest of the surrounding area was still shrouded in thick fog, making it impossible to see the distant city.

The source of the Ghost Well should be in this temple, so we definitely need to go inside the temple.

Wang Liang tentatively released the Ghost Domain, only to find that it could not directly erode into the temple's interior through the courtyard wall.

It's not that it's impossible, but if we were to forcibly invade, we might damage the temple's walls and cause a sudden change.

This is somewhat similar to the Wang family's old residence; even the walls are extraordinary, and the entire temple is very special, possessing a certain supernatural quality.

After discovering that he was blocked from entering the Ghost Realm, Wang Liang did not force his way through. He threw away the useless female corpse in his hand, and with a flash, appeared in front of the main gate of the temple.
