A bizarre resurrection: I, Yang Jian, am bound by a contract with the school beauty!

A bizarre world, inside the passage at the bottom of the eerie lake.

The tremors continue, and are even intensifying.

The cluster of ghost fire that Yang Jian lit flickered more and more rapidly, like a candle in the wind, ready to be extinguished at any moment.

He could feel it clearly.

The cold, sticky, eerie aura surrounding them was pressing in on them relentlessly.

This is not just physical pressure.

It is also a kind of erosion and suppression from the supernatural realm.

The "ghost domain" emanating from countless vengeful spirits in the lake, mixed together, is fighting against the power of the passage itself.

They are like an invisible giant hand.

It choked everyone, hindering their progress.

It made every step incredibly heavy.

The sense of oppression grew stronger and stronger.

time.

It is becoming increasingly urgent.

Yang Jian's eyes remained cold, but a sharp glint flashed deep within them.

Ignoring the panic of the other players around him, he turned his gaze directly to Qin Taotao beside him.

"We may really not have much time left."

His voice.

The calm was as usual, yet it carried an undeniable decisiveness.

Give me your hand.

Three simple words, no extra explanation, and no warmth whatsoever.

Qin Taotao was slightly taken aback upon hearing this.

Under the terrifying tremors and the dense shadows of ghosts all around.

Her pretty face was also a little pale.

But upon hearing Yang Jian's words, she almost instinctively reached out her slightly cool hand without the slightest hesitation.

She didn't know what Yang Jian was going to do.

But she knew,

In this desperate situation, this man was the only person she could trust and rely on.

next moment.

Yang Jian grasped the hand she offered.

The moment their hands clasped, Yang Jian's third eye, which had been tightly closed, suddenly opened—his eerie vertical pupil!

hum-

An indescribable, scarlet light burst forth from that vertical pupil!

That light.

It is not a light that dispels darkness.

Instead, it was a deeper, more eerie red light that seemed capable of distorting reality!

Centered on Yangjian.

A faint, almost invisible red field instantly spread out!

Ghostland!

This was not the first time Yang Jian had used the Ghost Domain.

But this time,

But it's different from any other time!

His ghost realm,

The moment it unfolded, it collided violently with the chaotic and massive supernatural force field emanating from the entire Ghost Lake!

in the air.

It sounded like the cracking of glass.

The chilling aura that had been pressing in so fiercely was actually pushed aside in a small area the moment it came into contact with Yang Jian's Ghost Domain!

Ghostly Realms Overlap!

Do not,

This is no longer a simple superposition!

This is a more refined and domineering ghost realm, controlled by itself.

Forcefully forging a path of their own in another, larger, but chaotic and disorderly "ghost realm"!

"Walk!"

Yang Jian uttered a cold word.

He pulled Qin Taotao along.

His entire body seemed to transform into a dark red afterimage, and his speed suddenly increased several times over.

Rushing down the spiral staircase at top speed!

The oppressive feeling that was originally as heavy as a mountain vanished completely under the protection of his ghostly domain!

He was like a red-hot blade.

It pierced deep into the thick ice with unstoppable force!

This unexpected scene.

The mysterious man following behind was once again surprised.

And the remaining players.

They were completely dumbfounded.

"He...they..."

"Wow, that's fast!"

"Yang Jian... he actually managed to unleash such speed under these conditions?!"

After the initial shock, everyone felt an even greater sense of anxiety and panic.

They were all ghost tamers as well.

Naturally, one can more clearly sense how terrifying the "turbulent waves" of this eerie lake are becoming over time.

The chilling cold that constantly assails us.

That deathly stillness seemed to freeze even the soul.

The passageway trembled violently.

An apocalyptic scene that seemed poised to collapse at any moment...

Here,

It's getting more and more dangerous.

Yang Jian and Qin Taotao's figures had already turned into a small dot in the distance, about to disappear into the darkness below.

Should we continue?

A fatal choice was placed before everyone.

Follow along.

This means venturing into the unknown and perilous depths of the Ghost Lake, a place even Yang Jian finds challenging.

But if we don't follow...

Many people have already begun to consider leaving.

They looked back at the equally deep darkness that represented the "path they had come from," their eyes filled with struggle.

"No...it's too dangerous! Going any further will definitely mean certain death!"

"Yang Jian is powerful enough to possibly get through, but we... we've only just become Ghost Tamers, following him is suicide!"

"That's right! We should go back!"

"Let's go back to the island in the middle of the lake! There are boats there! As long as we can get back on the boat, we can leave this hellhole!"

One player lowered his voice.

With a tremor and a hint of panic, he spoke the thoughts that most people were thinking.

This proposal,

Several people immediately responded.

They really want to become stronger.

I really want to complete the task and get the generous reward.

but,

More than becoming stronger, they want to...

Alive.

however.

A real problem, however, made them hesitate to move forward.

That is light.

The only source of light, the torch lit by will-o'-the-wisp, was still in the mysterious man's hands.

Once they choose to return the way they came.

It's like stepping back into that absolute darkness where you can't see your hand in front of your face.

Just now,

They had already witnessed it firsthand; under the illumination of the will-o'-the-wisp, the walls were covered with countless ghostly shadows.

Who can guarantee that?

Could there be an even more deadly danger lurking in that darkness where no light is?

For a time, they were caught in a dilemma.

however,

The instinct for survival ultimately triumphed over the fear of the unknown.

"I...I've decided to go back!"

A player from Gaul gritted his teeth and was the first to make a decision.

"Rather than going down there and facing a near-certain death."

"Why not take a gamble? The road up there might be safer!"

"I'm going back too!"

Count me in!

With the first person taking the lead, the rest of the group also made up their minds.

In their view.

The danger of going any further is absolute and is clearly visible.

They returned via the same route.

Although there are risks, at least it's a path that has been taken before.

Psychologically, they will feel more "safe".

and,

They have become demon tamers, possessing the power to protect themselves.

They are no longer the ordinary people who can be slaughtered at will.

Just be careful.

It's not necessarily impossible to go out.
