Zhutian Panlong: They've all become gods, and they're only just joining the chat group.

Chapter 76 Survival Society

Outside the Wang family's old residence, several people got out of the car.

Looking at this somewhat dilapidated house, time has left deep marks on it. The walls are mottled, and the plaster is peeling off.

The corner of the wall was covered with moss and ivy.

The old-fashioned brick and tile house looks somewhat out of place on the street. The old house is located on a street corner, without any attempt to hide or isolate it.

However, the street itself is quite remote, and only one or two people pass by occasionally.

Passersby looked at the three of them with great curiosity, as if they didn't quite understand why anyone would come here.

Ye Zhen and Richard walked straight into the old house.

Wang Chaling watched quietly as the two entered the old house. Only after they were completely inside did he turn around, get into his car, and leave.

The two had barely entered the old house when they encountered living people.

These people were trapped in the time loop of the old house, which would cycle every half hour or so, and they didn't need to eat or drink. They stayed in the old house like this for an unknown amount of time.

Or you could say they entered voluntarily.

Here, you don't have to worry about vengeful ghosts resurrecting or dying; there's nothing wrong with it.

And so, more and more people gathered. They even formed a ghost-taming organization unknown to the outside world.

The clock organization, or rather, the survival club.

Richard and his companion encountered the members of the survival club as soon as they entered.

This house was already occupied by the Survival Society, so it's quite normal to run into them.

They dared not go to the third floor, where there were extremely powerful ghosts, but the first and second floors were occupied by these people.

"Wow, another new person has joined." One of them said.

"That's normal. The world outside is nothing like the comfort here," another person chimed in.

"Hey, what's going on with you two?"

Richard and Ye Zhen looked at them without saying a word.

There were about a dozen ghost controllers in the shadowy figures on the first floor of the house. It was not very clear upstairs, but there were just that many people in the rooms downstairs alone.

It can be said that this survival club is very powerful.

Furthermore, these people guard the Wang family's old residence, and the vengeful spirits they control are no ordinary characters. Each one can be considered an elite, far superior to the slackers at headquarters.

"Hey, I'm asking you a question, are you mute?"

"Wan Tong, Liao Fan, it seems they look down on you guys," the others joked.

"Looks like it's necessary to teach you newcomers what it means to respect your seniors. Liao Fan, one for each of you?" One of them, Wan Tong, was a bit irritable and intended to teach the two a lesson.

"Okay, then I'll choose him." Liao Fan casually pointed at Ye Zhen.

Wan Tong chuckled at Richard. "Kid, you've learned how to respect your seniors after dying once."

A yellow taxi appeared, stained with blood and dilapidated, as if it had just come from the Syrian battlefield.

Wan Tong sat in the driver's seat, piloting the vengeful ghost codenamed "Hit-and-Run Ghost." Anyone hit by it would die instantly. Even the ghost itself would be temporarily disabled upon being hit. It was, in a sense, a very practical vengeful ghost.

Richard was intrigued and released six puppets.

Six figures suddenly appeared on the spot, and the six puppets released the Ghost Realm as soon as they appeared.

That's right, he made each of his puppets control at least one vengeful ghost with a ghost domain, and some even had more than one ghost domain.

He also attempted to merge the ghost realms between his puppets.

While perfect integration is not possible now, at least they can avoid interfering with each other.

It can be said that the combined strength of all the ghost domains of the Six Paths Puppet is enough to crush an ordinary ghost tamer.

Although I don't know which level of ghost realm it can compare to Yang Jian's, at least it wouldn't be a problem to bully the people here.

Unfortunately, restarting isn't something you can obtain simply by having a high level of supernatural power. He felt that his supernatural power was quite high after his ghost realm was stacked, but he still couldn't gain the ability to restart.

He desperately wanted to obtain the restart ability to see how it differed from the time reversal ability of his Rinnegan.

The superposition of multiple ghostly realms created an effect similar to time standstill.

Within the area covered by these ghostly realms, the members of the Survival Society were completely immobilized, their minds even frozen.

Only Ye Zhen, who was standing next to him, could still move with difficulty.

"You actually managed to control so many vengeful ghosts? Are you cheating?" Ye Zhen exclaimed incredulously.

All he knew was that Richard had gathered a bunch of vengeful ghosts and had been tinkering with all sorts of random combinations for some time.

But he had no idea that Richard had actually made each of his puppets control a number of vengeful spirits.

He's been quite busy lately, only managing to control two vengeful spirits with Richard's help.

This thing has a strong aftereffect; although he can use a scapegoat to kill these two vengeful ghosts until they die.

However, the erosion of the tamer's consciousness by consciousness-type vengeful spirits seems to be more severe than that of other vengeful spirits, and he doesn't have any good way to deal with it now.

The only thing to do is to enhance one's mental strength and endure as long as possible to buy time for oneself to take control of the rules.

According to Richard's research during this period, the reason why ghost tamers are corrupted by vengeful spirits is because...

One is that the vengeful spirits in this world are somewhat special, all possessing characteristics of the netherworld and leaning towards the yin attribute.

Another consequence is that wielding the rules as a mortal is like ascending to heaven in one step. But they only know how to use them, and sometimes they don't even understand how to use them properly.

This actually made it easier for them to understand the rules.

Compared to the immense difficulties faced by powerful individuals in other worlds in comprehending rules and laws, they had access to these advanced concepts from the very beginning. The difficulty of getting started was reduced a thousandfold.

The vengeful spirits they command are their best teachers.

Once they successfully comprehend the corresponding Great Dao Laws, they will no longer be at risk of their bodies and consciousness being corrupted by supernatural forces.

It's not even impossible to embark on the path to godhood.

However, this is very difficult. So many brilliant ghost tamers in the Republic of China era spent their entire lives trying to achieve it, but ultimately they all died when their lifespans ran out.

However, Ye Zhen was more fortunate than them to have joined the chat group, which opened up more possibilities.

"Heh, I don't need to worry about my consciousness being corrupted. In fact, the Six Paths Puppet's body is far more resilient than yours. Isn't controlling vengeful spirits much easier for me than for you?"

"I'm just worried that these vengeful spirits might have some unknown pitfalls. Otherwise, if I used my true form, I could control even more," Richard said.

"Okay, you're awesome." Ye Zhen gave a thumbs up.

Richard ignored him and instead used the killing patterns of the vengeful spirits controlled by the Six Paths Puppet to wipe out the lives of the Survival Society members.

"How come you even took care of my opponent?" Ye Zhen asked, dissatisfied.

"We're not here to fight. If you want to fight, you can deal with the people on the second floor and Chen Qiaoyang hiding there."

Richard was helpless; he just wanted to get the clock as soon as possible, which is why he cleared the area quickly.

"Okay, I'll take care of them," Ye Zhen said happily. He was far more interested in fighting than in the pendulum clock.

The area has been cleared out, and now we can finally have some peace and quiet.

These people won't bother them until the clock resets.

However, after their deaths, the vengeful spirits within their bodies began to revive.

Richard didn't want to get entangled with these ghostly things. Although some of them were decent, even if he imprisoned them now, they would still be lost once the game restarted.

So the two quickly bypassed these people and went upstairs.
