Chapter 107: 107
After all the puzzles were unveiled, the only thing left in front of the three people was one matter.
Imprisoning the ghost before their very eyes.
Solving the paranormal incident in Huanggang Village and then living to leave this place.
No matter what conflicts they had before, no matter what schemes were in their hearts.
But from the moment the ghost appeared, all of that became unimportant.
And they had no way out.
“It has stopped, it seems it doesn’t plan to come in, so what do we do now?” Zhang Han said in a hushed voice,
from which one could tell that he was very nervous.
Yang Jian’s expression was serious. At this moment, the whole house was shrouded within his Ghost Domain, the front door marking the boundary line, clearly separating the village and the spirit hall.
But that pale-faced, bloodless, and handsome man was standing motionlessly at the doorway, neither leaving nor entering, whether he was waiting or guarding the door to prevent anyone inside the house from getting out… This stillness was even more unsettling.
Because you didn’t know what other terrifying abilities he might have.
You only knew that being alone in front of this ghost meant certain death, but what kind of death awaited you when alone, you could not tell.
Those who had seen its way of killing were all dead.
“This question should be asked to Feng Quan, he knows more than I do.” Yang Jian’s gaze shifted to Feng Quan.
Feng Quan was equally pale, bloodless, with numb eyes devoid of spirit. If he and the ghost outside stood together, they could be mistaken for brothers, nothing different except for their appearance.
Equally eerie, equally lifeless.
However, Feng Quan merely said, “I failed my first mission and hid in this Ghost Coffin. It’s already fortunate that I’ve survived until now. If I had any understanding of this ghost, I would have escaped long ago and wouldn’t have had to wait until now to come out.”
Yang Jian’s face darkened.
He didn’t believe the ghost stories from Feng Quan. Surviving for so long in this place and having had close encounters with the ghost on numerous occasions, it would be impossible not to discern some patterns—how could he know nothing at all?
He must be unwilling to speak.
“Being alive until now amid such abnormal people is truly a miracle. It seems none of the ghost controllers are the least bit normal.”
He took a slight breath.
There was no other way.
Since Feng Quan was playing dumb, and Zhang Han didn’t dare to act rashly, and the ghost outside stood there refusing to leave or enter,
it was up to him to take action and break the deadlock.
“Hiss~!”
The next moment.
The lights in the spirit hall flickered once, and suddenly everything changed color.
A layer of red halo enveloped the place.
He revealed his Ghost Domain.
There was no longer any fear of exposing his abilities at this time.
After the red light covered the spirit hall, it gradually extended outside, like a beam of light shining from inside the house to the outside.
Crawling across the floor slowly.
Yang Jian tried to draw the ghost into his Ghost Domain. If he managed to do so, he could at least use some relatively safe methods to test the ghost’s abilities or even imprison it directly.
“Be careful,” Zhang Han couldn’t help but remind him.
Although Yang Jian was the one probing, he was also ready to take action at any moment.
Soon.
The red light reached the side of the ghost outside.
It remained motionless.
Based on past experiences confronting the Headless Ghost Shadow, the Ghost Domain should be able to draw other ghosts into it.
However, the next moment, Yang Jian suddenly discovered.
The Ghost Domain that overlaid everything else met resistance, like water flowing against a rock.
It failed to cover him, it could only bypass and continue ahead.
The red light engulfed the outside, the Ghost Domain expanded, with everything around already inside the Ghost Domain.
Only the place where the ghost stood outside the door remained as it was, unaffected by the Ghost Domain.
“Has the Ghost Domain failed?” Yang Jian furrowed his brows.
It seemed that relying solely on the Ghost Domain to deal with this ghost was clearly unrealistic, for here was yet another ghost that could resist the Ghost Domain.
But his actions seemed to have provoked the ghost outside.
The person who had been standing motionless outside the door, with a deathly pale complexion and not a hint of blood color, suddenly moved.
It took a step forward, unhurriedly.
That step landed squarely within the range of the red glow.
Just like the old woman before, it forcibly walked into Yang Jian’s Ghost Domain.
However, unlike when the old woman entered, Yang Jian had not felt anything unusual then, but now it was different with this ghost… his Ghost Domain had lost control.
Yes, as if the powers of some fierce ghost had been stripped away, Yang Jian found himself completely unable to control the Ghost Domain anymore.
“What… is going on?”
He widened his eyes, looking in shock at the ghost that had entered the Ghost Domain, walking in from outside the house.
The Ghost Domain failed to affect it; instead, it had affected the Ghost Domain.
“Yang Jian, your abilities have no effect on it?” Zhang Han felt that something was very wrong and said urgently.
The ghost had already entered the hall of spirits.
Although the three of them were well-prepared, they all felt a spine-chilling fear.
The dimness outside was deepening by the moment as the Black Night gradually enveloped, beginning to affect the inside of the house as well.
At this moment, the red glow covering the inside of the house seemed to be severely suppressed, showing signs that it might extinguish at any moment.
“It’s very strange, be careful, it might be the most terrifying ghost we’ve encountered since becoming ghost controllers.” Beads of cold sweat involuntarily formed on Yang Jian’s face.
The distance between each other and the ghost was closing.
There was no turning back now.
“Then let’s fight it out.”
By this time, Zhang Han, gritting his teeth, had made up his mind.
“Alright, let’s give it our all and go at it together,” Yang Jian also roared in a low voice.
“That works,” Feng Quan nodded.
Overcome by extreme fear, Zhang Han had lost some of his reason, and, before he even finished speaking, he was the first to charge forward with a ferocious expression.
Something brutally tore open his clothes from behind in an instant.
Tattooed on his skin at the back was an image of a person, a person dripping with blood, as if skinned alive, and the tattoo was so vivid it seemed as if there truly was such a person standing behind him, following him always, eerie and horrific.
Yang Jian was fully seeing the tattoo on Zhang Han’s back for the first time.
But as he channeled the power of the fierce ghost, that blood-soaked person in the tattoo suddenly started to move, and blood began to seep out from the area of the tattoo.
A bloody arm suddenly extended from his back, clutching tightly to the flesh beside it, causing Zhang Han so much pain that his expression turned savage.
But that wasn’t enough… Another bloody arm stretched out soon after.
Once both bloody arms were out,
Yang Jian could see that the Evil Ghost in the tattoo was trying to climb out.
In the end, the blood-soaked Evil Ghost didn’t quite emerge completely.
But it was close, with two arms, a head, and half a torso already out, leaving just the lower body still within the tattoo; it was probably just one more use of the fierce ghost’s power away from leaving Zhang Han’s body completely.
The blood-soaked corpse that crawled out from his back didn’t make much movement, merely lying on Zhang Han’s back, allowing him to carry it.
As the ghost outside moved towards the coffin, Zhang Han, with the half-carcass still draped on his back, suddenly blocked its path.
Up until that moment, the half-corpse had been motionless, but then it suddenly raised its head and reached out its bloody arms to grab the ghost’s body, stopping its advance.
At almost the same time,

Feng Quan also made his move, rushing right up to the ghost, his numb gaze showing no fear, only a kind of desperate madness.
Yang Jian didn’t hesitate either.
The Headless Ghost Shadow, which had been lying like a shadow on the ground, swiftly stood up and appeared behind the ghost, intending to wrench off its head and completely dismember it.
The joint efforts of the three seemed to pose a threat to the ghost.
At that moment, the ghost’s steps suddenly halted.
