Horror Resurrection: I Evolve Starting with the Ghost Buddha

The baby's faint cries went unnoticed by anyone.

Inside the laboratory, the researchers in white coats were still busy fiddling with various glass test tubes and special instruments.

In the corner, the body of the fetus that had been dead began to slowly twitch its gray and stiff limbs, and then, like a gecko, silently crawled out of the laboratory.

……

Changyang City, a street corner late at night.

A drunk man was staggering home, humming an off-key tune.

"Little sister... I'll get drunk today..."

Sudden.

He felt as if he had kicked something soft and sticky.

"What the hell?"

The drunkard lowered his head, and in the dim light of the streetlamp, he could only see a grayish-white thing huddled by the roadside.

"Where did this dead cat come from...bad luck!"

The drunkard cursed and raised his foot, kicking hard.

boom!

The object was kicked several meters away and rolled into the roadside bushes.

"Damn...you scared the hell out of me..."

The drunkard spat another mouthful of phlegm on the ground, then continued to stagger forward.

But he didn't notice.

A tiny, black stain of blood appeared on the sole of the shoe where he had just kicked the thing.

And deep in the grass.

The fetal corpse that had been kicked away slowly turned over.

Its dark, inky eyes were fixed on the drunkard's departing figure.

A slow smile spread across his lips.

He revealed an extremely venomous smile.

……

At this moment, inside an abandoned temple in the suburbs.

Lin Chuan was checking the information on the panel deep within his consciousness.

[Wish Power: 0]

Fear level: 0.

[Current evolution value: 10030.]

After two days of frantically accumulating fear points, he finally collected 10,000 evolution points!!

"Finally... that's enough."

Lin Chuan felt a sense of anticipation.

He'll be promoted to a C-level weirdo soon!

"Panel! Evolution!!"

boom!!

As Lin Chuan's thoughts settled, the entire Temple of Rebirth suddenly trembled violently.

An unprecedentedly terrifying aura erupted from his stone Buddha statue.

The stone skin that originally covered the Buddha statue began to peel off and deteriorate in large areas...

Immediately afterwards, his Buddha body turned as red as flesh and blood, yet it also emanated a strange texture resembling a metallic sheen.

This moment.

He is no longer a stone sculpture.

It's more like a truly living... evil Buddha!

[Consumes 10000 evolution points.]

[Rank Upgrade: D → C!]

[Congratulations, Master! Your life level has undergone a qualitative leap!]

[Unlock new rule-based abilities—Buddha Kingdom in the Palm of Your Hand!]

[Rules and Ability Description: You can extend a blood-red Buddha hand, which can grab targets within your line of sight. Any being (monster, monster tamer, or living person) caught by the blood hand will be forcibly suppressed and sealed!]

[Note: This ability cannot suppress eerie entities with a terror level higher than one's own.]

[Next round of evolution upgrade requirement: 50000 evolution points!!]

Feeling his own strange power increase, Lin Chuan felt much more at ease.

Grade C!

In the early stages of this era of resurgence of terror, a C-level anomaly... is already considered to be at the pinnacle of existence!

Having reached Rank C, he now has the capability to confront even the resurrected Heart Spring Ghost head-on!

"Come back."

Lin Chuan had a sudden thought.

About half an hour later, a dark figure appeared in the dilapidated Buddhist hall.

The dark figure was Lin Chuan's clone—the Coughing Ghost.

At this moment, the coughing ghost's aura became even colder and more terrifying.

After its rampage in Changyang City, its fear level has also increased, reaching level D!

Lin Chuan was in a very good mood about this.

Currently, his main body has reached Rank C, and his clone has Rank D Coughing Ghost! His core followers include: Rank E Crying Ghost, Rank E Ghost Master Zhao Linfeng, Rank E Ghost Master Qin Yao, and Rank F Ghost Master Zhou Kai.

This force, no matter where it is placed, is not to be underestimated.

At least in this era, the power controlled by Lin Chuan has reached the top level.

If he wanted to, he could easily influence a city or even a prefecture!

……

Time flies, and two days later it was already past.

Although Qin Yao and Zhou Kai did not participate in the Zhengui Division's operations these past two days, they were not idle either.

They also gathered more than a hundred desperate people from the city's slums and black markets.

After witnessing Lin Chuan's "miracle," these people did not hesitate to become believers in the Rebirth Cult.

This also contributed another 1300 points of wish power to Lin Chuan.

Although it's not much, it's better than nothing.

At this time.

The atmosphere outside the Temple of Rebirth became unusually heavy.

Standing at the temple gate, one can clearly see that the surging, grayish-white fog has approached within 300 meters.

The suffocating sense of oppression even made the candlelight in the temple flicker.

at the foot of the mountain.

Several heavy trucks were already parked, ready to transport Lin Chuan's Buddha statue body away at any time.

This was also a backup plan left by Lin Chuan.

If the situation gets out of control, he will have no choice but to run away.

However, we haven't reached that point yet.

As Lin Chuan's thoughts drifted, night fell and a cold wind howled.

At the eastern end of Qingquan Village lies a vast, empty wasteland.

Twenty night patrolmen, including the head of the Changyang Town Ghost Bureau, have assembled.

Beside them stood six folk exorcists dressed in strange costumes.

Everyone's expression was solemn.

A young woman stood in front of the crowd.

She looked to be only around twenty years old, with neat short hair and wearing a tight-fitting black combat suit that accentuated her slender figure.

But what is most striking is her icy demeanor.

She is like a block of ice that never melts.

Even if you just stand there without saying a word, the temperature around you seems to drop several degrees.

The woman's name is Yu Xinxiao.

It was a special envoy from the county seat.

"Commissioner Yu, everyone has arrived."

Qi Zheng walked up to Yu Xinxiao, his tone carrying a hint of respect.

Even though he was the head of the Zhengui Division in Changyang City, he dared not be arrogant in front of this woman.

Yu Xinxiao nodded slightly, her gaze sweeping coldly over the thick fog ahead.

"The situation is even more serious than the report described."

"What's inside is very likely a Class B supernatural entity!"

Her voice was cold and devoid of any emotion.

"Get ready to enter."

"Remember, our goal is to detain the source."

"If faced with an insurmountable danger, you are permitted to... abandon the mission and prioritize survival."

The last sentence brought some peace of mind to many of the demon tamers present.

"action!"

With Yu Xinxiao's command.

This team, which had assembled the most elite combat force in Changyang City, slowly walked into the thick fog that swallowed everything.

Inside the deserted temple.

Lin Chuan witnessed the whole thing through Zhao Linfeng's perspective.

"As expected of a special envoy from the county seat, he is indeed extraordinary."

Lin Chuan could sense that two extremely terrifying forces of rules were lurking within the woman's body.

Both of those forces of power were extremely domineering!

If they were to confront her head-on, even Lin Chuan in his current state wouldn't be 100% confident in suppressing that woman!
