Horror Resurrection: I Evolve Starting with the Ghost Buddha

three days later.

The Great Xin Dynasty, the temporary capital city.

Zhou Kai descended like a demon god, radiating a terrifying aura of power emanating from him.

Without any attempt to conceal his intentions, he stormed directly into the headquarters building of the Zhengui Division.

Along the way, all the guards and monster tamers couldn't even stand up before his terrifying S-rank fifth-level aura, and all knelt down on the ground, trembling with fear.

"Where is Mr. K? Tell him to come out and see me!"

Zhou Kai sat in the seat that Mr. K had once occupied, toying with the prophecy pen in his hand, his voice cold and authoritative.

"Director Zhou... Director Zhou..."

An intelligence officer stepped forward shakily, cold sweat pouring down his face.

"Mr. K... has disappeared."

"Missing?"

Zhou Kai frowned, and his pen paused slightly.

"When did this happen?"

"Just... just a short while ago."

The official stammered.

"Not only Mr. K, but also Lord Ning Shou... has disappeared."

"We searched the entire base city and even used all the detection methods, but we couldn't find any trace of them."

"It's like... it evaporated into thin air."

"Oh? Is that so?"

Zhou Kai narrowed his eyes, a hint of amusement flashing in them.

Mr. K, that old fox, has always been cunning and resourceful. How could he suddenly disappear?

And Ning Shou, that brainwashed "fighter for justice," will also disappear along with him?

"It seems they anticipated this day and ran away in advance."

Zhou Kai sneered.

But, oh well, they've run away.

As long as they no longer get in the way, Zhou Kai is too lazy to hunt them down.

The most urgent task now is to take over the entire Great Xin Dynasty!

"Buddha..."

"Supreme Buddha!!"

He began to silently call out Lin Chuan's name in his heart.

soon.

Inside the Temple of Rebirth.

Lin Chuan sensed Zhou Kai's call.

After learning from him that Mr. K and Ning Shou had gone missing, Lin Chuan didn't say much.

He no longer cares about Mr. K or that forbidden master, Ning Shou.

Faced with absolute power, those two... no longer have the right to stir up trouble!

Lin Chuan expressed his full support for Zhou Kai's move to take control of the Great Xin Dynasty.

In a flash, Lin Chuan used some of his willpower to bestow a blessing upon Zhou Kai.

Soon, a notification popped up on the panel:

[Consumed 300 million units of willpower!]

[Bestowing a special keyword upon believer Zhou Kai—Ruler!]

[Affix Effects: Authority +100%, Leadership +200%, Work Efficiency +300%, More Sensitive Judgment of Subordinates' Loyalty!]

"This entry... Innate Ox-Horse Sacred Body?"

Looking at the effect of this entry, Lin Chuan couldn't help but mutter a complaint in his heart.

However, for Zhou Kai now, this term is practically a divine skill.

With this skill boost, he can do the work of three people all by himself!

Once the entry took effect, Zhou Kai quickly felt full of energy.

He immediately began to swiftly and decisively reorganize the entire Xin Dynasty.

The first step is cleaning.

Those officials and manipulators who had been close to Mr. K, harbored ulterior motives, were corrupt, and were all suppressed by him with ruthless methods.

In just three days, the officialdom of the Great Xin Dynasty was completely subdued.

The next step was to incorporate them into the government.

Within the territory of the Great Xin Dynasty, there are also many local forces of the "Demon-Controlling Warriors" who hold sway over their own territories.

These forces used to rely on the fact that the emperor was far away and often disobeyed orders, even daring to go against the government.

But faced with Zhou Kai's terrifying S-rank fifth-level strength, they were like mice encountering a cat, obediently bowing their heads and indicating their willingness to submit.

As for those who are stubborn and unyielding...

Naturally, he became a target for Zhou Kai to establish his authority.

As for those taboos and taboo projections that are entrenched in various places.

Zhou Kai showed no mercy.

With his newly formed "elite team of the Town of Ghosts" and Lin Chuan's help, he quickly launched a series of frenzied hunts.

Ultimately, he devoured all the forbidden entities and projections within the Great Xin Dynasty, turning them into nourishment...

[Devouring the forbidden S-rank, Tier 2 form—the Ghost-Faced Spider!]

[Gained Forbidden Value Reduction: 0.5 points!]

[Devouring an SS-rank, Tier 2 Forbidden Projection—The Red-Clad Senior! (Projection Rank: S-rank, Tier 1)]

[Gained Forbidden Value Reduction: 0.3 points!]

【…】

As the information on Lin Chuan's panel flashed...

One by one, the taboos began to disappear.

Within the territory of the Daxin Dynasty, strange events have also decreased significantly.

Social order was restored very quickly.

After devouring most of the taboos and strange things within the territory of the Great Xin Dynasty, Lin Chuan's accumulated taboo value reduction has reached 30 points!

However, he still needs 20 more forbidden points to advance to the eighth rank of S-class!

……

Another half month later.

Lin Chuan basically controlled the entire territory of the Great Xin Dynasty.

Zhou Kai stood atop a tall building in the temporary capital city of the Great Xin Dynasty, his heart filled with a sense of accomplishment.

"Buddha..."

He called out to Lin Chuan in his heart once again.

"The Great Xin Dynasty is now completely in our hands."

"Should we... change the country's name?"

"Change the country's name?"

Upon hearing Zhou Kai's call, Lin Chuan pondered for a moment.

The name "Da Xin Dynasty" really needs to be changed.

When terror returns and the apocalypse arrives, everything from the old era... will have come to an end!

Thinking of this, Lin Chuan pondered for a moment, then replied to Zhou Kai:

"From this day forward, there will be no more Great Xin Dynasty, only the 'Paradise of Rebirth'!"

"The Land of Rebirth on the Other Shore..."

Zhou Kai muttered to himself, a hint of fanaticism flashing in his eyes.

"Yes, sir! Buddha!!"

……

And after everything was on track.

Qin Yao found Zhou Kai.

"I'm leaving."

Qin Yao carried his backpack, his eyes resolute.

"Where to?" Zhou Kai asked.

"Go to other countries."

Qin Yao looked into the distance.

"The Buddha's glory cannot shine only on this one piece of land."

"I want to go to more places to spread the teachings of the Rebirth Sect and save more suffering beings."

Zhou Kai looked at his old partner, a hint of admiration flashing in his eyes.

"Take care of yourself."

Take care of yourself too.

……

The day after Qin Yao left.

A major piece of news spread throughout Dongsheng Prefecture.

The Great Xin Dynasty was officially renamed "The Land of Rebirth on the Other Shore"!

The city of Wangsheng in Qinglong County has been designated as the new capital!

The original government institutions of the Great Xin Dynasty were taken over by Zhao Linfeng, who was responsible for people's livelihood and government affairs.

The National Bureau of Strange Events, personally controlled by Zhou Kai, is responsible for handling all strange and unusual events.

The enforcement team, led by Lin Chuan's two capable lieutenants, Xiao Hong and Bai Ling, was responsible for maintaining social order and proselytizing for Lin Chuan.

The army was entrusted to Li Shanyuan, who was most loyal and fanatical to Lin Chuan.

Under Lin Chuan's will, the entire country regained order.

……

On the other side...

Yanlong Empire, a border base city.

Chen Feng was sitting in a spacious office, holding a secret report he had just received.

By this time, he had successfully risen to the position of deputy director of the town's secret service in this base city.

"The Land of Rebirth on the Other Shore..."

Chen Feng looked at the contents of the secret report, his eyes filled with respect, fervor, and boundless excitement...

"That's great! That's fantastic!!"

"We are one step closer to the day when Buddha's glory shines throughout the world!!"

"but……"

His gaze fell on the latter half of the secret report, and his expression gradually became serious.

[Urgent Military Situation: The Imperial High Command is enraged by the death of Captain Bao Teng and has ordered the assembly of three army groups, in coordination with Task Force 749, to converge on the border of the Kingdom of Rebirth!]

[Intent: Military conquest! Completely eradicate the "cult" and wipe out the evil Buddhism!!]

"They came after all."

Chen Feng sighed.

As the overlord of Dongsheng Prefecture, how could the Yanlong Empire tolerate the killing of its squadron leader?

It is even more impossible for them to tolerate an uncontrolled "Buddhist kingdom on earth" appearing right next to their bed.

This battle seems inevitable.

"We must inform the Buddha immediately."

Thinking of this, Chen Feng dared not delay and immediately began to communicate with Lin Chuan.
