Chapter 139: The "Protection" of Ghost Diary
In Luohe City, Chu Jiang drove a broken Mazda, and he was driving recklessly on the highway.
Because many car owners abandoned their cars and fled, and there were also black skeletons all over the street, trying to attack anything within sight, at this moment, there was not a single living person in Chu Jiang’s sight.
However, there were piles of obstacles, and Chu Jiang didn’t have time to move these empty cars. If he couldn’t go around them, he would forcefully crash through, even the airbags were forcibly removed by him.
Actually, if Chu Jiang was in a hurry, he could consider using the Ghost Domain to travel.
Chu Jiang was not one of the first people to possess the Ghost Domain. His study and mastery of the Ghost Domain could actually be based on the experiences of those who came before him.
Without further ado, through the research institute, Chu Jiang could obtain many research papers from Ghost Masters in the general public, which he had long desired.
To push the limits of his own abilities and develop new uses meant constantly using supernatural powers. This was a very painful process, it was practically wasting life, learning how to become stronger.
But if he could obtain the corresponding research documents, he could save a considerable amount of energy. By following the instructions and trying a few times, he would significantly enhance his own strength.
For example, in one paper, it was mentioned that Ghost Masters with the Ghost Domain could actually fly.
The specific principle is very simple. Inside the Ghost Domain, the master can instantly move to any place.
Although the size of the Ghost Domain has limits and cannot be as crazy big as an S-class ghost’s Ghost Domain, the Ghost Master can change the shape of the Ghost Domain after becoming skilled.
In this way, even though the volume inside the Ghost Domain remains the same, the Ghost Master can stretch the Ghost Domain into a long straight line. It’s like rolling a round dough into a long noodle.
After stretching, even though the Ghost Master still moves from one side to the other, the distance of the teleportation significantly increases.
Not only that, after the Ghost Master teleports from point A to point B, he can make the Ghost Domain run forward, as long as he is still inside the Ghost Domain.
In this way, even though the Ghost Master stands still, he has already traveled from the head of the long noodle back to its tail, which means his coordinates change from point B back to point A.
This cycle repeats: teleportation, extending the Ghost Domain; teleportation, extending the Ghost Domain… The Ghost Master can have a terrifying travel speed, similar to spatial jumps.
Finally, the Ghost Domain can hover in the air and doesn’t need to rely on the ground, achieving a flying effect.
Of course, the research paper also mentions that doing this requires not only top-notch control over the Ghost Domain but also comes with great energy consumption for the Ghost Master.
If you’re not in a hurry to die, or there’s no need to escape in such a dangerous way, it’s better not to use this extravagant method of travel.
After receiving theater Ghost Domain, Chu Jiang was bombarded with various tasks and didn’t have time to practice flying.
Moreover, now is not the time to misuse supernatural powers, he needs to conserve his strength and prepare for a tough battle against Black Sun!
……
Based on Chu Jiang’s previous contact with Yun Changfeng, Yun Changfeng should have already met up with three local civilian Ghost Masters and they are all waiting in Ghost Master Zhang Xiaogui’s rental house.
Chu Jiang is going to the West City district to find Yun Changfeng.
In reality, Chu Jiang doesn’t believe that Yun Changfeng bringing a few civilian Ghost Masters will provide much help on their side.
If Yun Changfeng can just keep those people in check and prevent them from being killed by Black Sun, thereby avoiding their ghosts from escaping their bodies, it would already be a huge relief.
Chu Jiang hasn’t forgotten that back in Luoxi No. 7 Middle School, the librarian Chen Tianrang was killed by Slender Man; after some time, the Ghost Tree revived from within him and started killing people.
Even Chu Jiang’s English teacher wasn’t killed by ghosts, but by the Ghost Tree.
This is one of the important reasons why you shouldn’t just pile up people in supernatural events.
When the Ghost Masters just died, their ghosts inside them were relatively easy to deal with; but when they fully revived, it would be a big trouble.
So Chu’s purpose for this trip was never to have those four Ghost Masters stand by his side; he wanted to borrow something, a seal.
That thing Yun Changfeng jokingly called the "Death Delay Ball," which was actually a red embroidered ball.
Chu Jiang had a plan in his mind, a plan that had an extremely low chance of success unless he obtained the red embroidered ball.
If he didn’t have this thing, or if it was useless against S-class ghosts, then Chu Jiang would be 100% certain to die.
……
On the way to the rental house, Chu Jiang didn’t waste a single bit of time. In his mind, he carefully reviewed the beginning and end of this S-class event.
Although Chu Jiang’s previous guess was wrong, the S-class ghost that appeared was not a false god, but the Black Sun. However, the rest should have no logical errors.
In chronological order, the Black Sun incident broke out in Europe, destroying a country, and then the evil ghost disappeared.
Several months later, the evil ghost reappeared, this time it silently infected three members of the Secret Spirit Order organization.
But these three people, despite their bad luck, came to the country to carry out a secret mission, which was to investigate the River God belief.
The previous leader, Wang Lei, seemed to have gotten involved in the supernatural events related to the River God, and ultimately died at the hands of the River God, but the exact details are unknown.
Because of their special interest in Wang Lei, the people from the Secret Spirit Order stayed in Luohe City for quite a long time, unknowingly infecting a large number of citizens.
Even if the people from the Secret Spirit Order leave the city, the hidden danger has already been planted.
The ghost in the Little Theater showed signs that it may have been contaminated, most likely by the students of the drama club at Riverside University.
And Chu Jiang, while sealing the Little Theater, also became cursed by the Black Sun.
Yes, Chu Jiang is also infected, there is no doubt about it.
He even suspects that Chen Yuting may have been infected by him too. He wonders if everyone at headquarters has also been affected.
Anyway, Chu Jiang doesn’t have time to worry about the outside world now.
The reason why he has the curse of the Black Sun on him, but without any signs of infection, and why he didn’t get burned by the black flames when exposed to the sun, is all because of the Ghost Diary.
Chu Jiang only realized this later.
The curse of the Black Sun turned Xu Yanting into a living servant of the undead. So the curse of being possessed by spirits doesn’t work on him, because it cannot touch the servants of the Black Sun.
What about Chu Jiang? Why hasn’t the curse of being possessed by spirits disappeared from him? If it wasn’t for the unexpected appearance of the White Tiger Fury, he might have been killed by the possession.
Chu Jiang speculates that it’s probably because the Black Sun cannot turn him into a living servant of the undead.
Because Chu Jiang opened the Ghost Diary, he is alive as the holder of the Ghost Diary, and dead as the ghost of the Ghost Diary.
In other words, Chu Jiang can have up to a hundred curses on him. But to turn Chu Jiang into a ghost servant, the ghost who does it needs to have a power that is stronger than the Ghost Diary.
