Horror Resurrection: I Evolve Starting with the Ghost Buddha

Inside the Temple of Rebirth.

Lin Chuan took in all of this through Zhou Kai's perspective.

He stared at the thirty-one extra 'people'.

At first glance, these "people" seem quite normal.

Lin Chuan didn't even sense any strange fluctuations in their rules.

They were just like real, living people!

But soon, Lin Chuan still sensed a very subtle sense of unease.

The aura emanating from them...

It's too "clean".

It's like... it was just carved from a mold.

Just then.

Deep within Lin Chuan's consciousness, a line of blood-red warning suddenly popped up on the panel:

[WARNING! High-risk prohibited rules detected!]

[Rule Name: Mirror!]

[Rule Level: S-Rank, Ninth Tier!]

[Source of the rule: Undetectable!]

[Rule Description: Within this realm, the boundary between reality and illusion is broken. The person in the mirror can step out of the mirror and replace the original. At the same time, everyone's memories will be forcibly synchronized, making it impossible to distinguish between reality and illusion!]

"The rules for S-rank, ninth level?"

Lin Chuan felt a slight chill.

The S-level nine-tier rule is already quite terrifying.

At least for Ning Shou and others, this level of rule power was almost irresistible.

Moreover... the source of this rule is actually undetectable?

Having understood the rules, Lin Chuan did not rush to remind Zhou Kai.

Because reminding someone now is meaningless.

Under the influence of the rules, even if Zhou Kai were told the truth, he would not be able to distinguish between what is true and what is false.

even……

Doubt may lead to panic.

At that point, Zhou Kai and the others will only die even faster.

While Lin Chuan pondered, the Great Xin Dynasty's army continued its advance.

At this moment, not only Zhou Kai, but also Ning Shou and several other keen-senseed demon tamers noticed that something was wrong.

"The number of people... has increased."

Ning Shou walked at the front, the blood-red scythe in his hand trembling slightly, emitting a low hum.

He glanced back.

More than sixty figures were faintly visible in the mist.

But he couldn't tell which ones were extra.

And as time went by, in his memory, the number of people involved in this operation... seemed to have originally been sixty-two?

Do not!

wrong!

Ning Shou shook his head violently, trying to shake off the chaotic memories.

He is an S-class forbidden master, whose mental fortitude and willpower far surpass those of ordinary people.

He clearly remembered that there were only thirty-one people when they set off!

"Everyone be careful!"

Ning Shou gave a low shout, his voice carrying a hint of solemnity.

Something has infiltrated the team!

"Everyone stay vigilant and don't trust anyone!"

Upon hearing this, the group immediately stirred.

Everyone looked at the people around them warily, their eyes filled with suspicion and fear.

Lin Chuan, observing everything from Zhou Kai's perspective, sighed inwardly.

Ning Shou's words threw the team into complete chaos!

Next, there's a good chance someone will be injured or killed.

"Damn it! Who's the real one?!"

"Don't look at me! I'm real!"

"How can you prove you're real?!"

Panic is spreading.

But in this eerie environment, panic will only hasten your death.

"Shut up, all of you!"

Ning Shou roared, and the forbidden rules on his body suddenly spread out, forming a terrifying sense of oppression that instantly suppressed all the noise.

"Keep quiet if you don't want to die!"

"keep going!"

Under Ning Shou's intimidation, although the crowd was still afraid, they could only suppress their unease and continue forward.

……

And at the back of the line.

Bao Teng, leading the main force of Bureau 749, stopped in his tracks.

"Captain, something seems off up ahead."

One of the team members leaned close to Bao Teng and whispered something.

"The number of those 'bait' seems to have increased?"

Bao Teng waved his embroidered fan, squinting his eyeliner-lined eyes as he looked at the procession ahead.

"You noticed it too?"

He let out a soft, effeminate laugh.

"This is Kunlun Ruins! Every step is fraught with danger!"

"According to the information, as soon as you step into this area, an exact copy of yourself will be created."

"and……"

He paused, a cruel glint flashing in his eyes.

"That clone will possess all the original's memories and abilities."

"The copied original will experience confusion in its memories, and may even lose its sense of self."

"What should we do then?" the team member asked with some concern.

"us?"

Bao Teng glanced at him, a confident smile playing on his lips.

"If we stay at the back and avoid some areas, we'll be fine!"

"Anyway, in the most dangerous areas... we can use these decoys to scout ahead!"

Even if we encounter unavoidable dangers, these decoys can help us probe out some of the dangers inherent in the rules!

At this point, Bao Teng's smile grew even more radiant and smug...

His greasy skin began to wrinkle and deform.

however.

He didn't know.

In his group, there were also three "people" who were staring at their backs with an extremely strange look.

And all this.

All of this was under Lin Chuan's observation.

After half an hour.

The march of the column slowed down more and more.

The fog around them grew thicker and thicker, and the temperature dropped lower and lower.

Zhou Kai followed closely behind Ning Shou, not daring to fall behind.

As he walked, he silently recited Lin Chuan's honorific title in his heart.

"Namo Ancient Buddha of Rebirth..."

"Namo Ancient Buddha of Rebirth..."

This is his only source of emotional support at the moment.

Just then.

The road ahead was suddenly blocked.

A huge, eerie black shadow lay across the middle of the road.

"stop!"

Ning Shou raised his hand to signal the team to stop.

By the dim light of the eerie candles, everyone finally saw the true face of the dark figure.

It was a statue.

A colossal statue, over thirty feet long, entirely black, exuding an ancient and weathered aura.

Its shape is extremely bizarre.

It has a huge human head with grotesque and distorted features, as if it is enduring great pain.

And its body...

It turned out to be a centipede with countless legs!

A centipede with a human head!

This bizarre combination is enough to make anyone feel physically uncomfortable at first glance.

Even more terrifying is...

The statue seems not to be an inanimate object.

Although it remained motionless, it exuded a suffocating sense of oppression.

"What is this?"

The crowd whispered among themselves, their voices filled with fear.

Ning Shou frowned as he carefully examined the statue.

"No regulated fluctuations..."

"It should just be an ordinary stone statue."

"Go around it!"

He didn't want to cause any unnecessary trouble.

however.

Just as they were preparing to take a detour.

"Snap!"

A crisp cracking sound suddenly rang out in the silent valley.

Everyone froze in their tracks.

All eyes turned to the statue.

Suddenly, a fine crack appeared on the surface of the originally black and smooth statue.
