Chapter 357: Chapter 343: Suspected Ghost Transformation!

This time, Wu Liang finally took action.

Pa—

He attached the Nightmare’s spiritual power to his hand and slapped Zeng Hu’s face hard.

This slap was just the right force, enough to daze him but not harm his brain.

The opponent was knocked out immediately, and the massive amount of rampant spiritual power that had been gathering deep in his brain gradually calmed down. The fierce ghost that had been wreaking havoc after entering his brain was also subdued.

Withdrawing his own spiritual power made Zeng Hu’s headache gradually decrease until it disappeared.

"Hmm, dealing with a City-Destruction Level fierce ghost is still a bit challenging. The power of a fierce ghost really can’t exceed the human host by too much, or else it becomes too easily influenced," Wu Liang muttered to himself.

In this situation, most likely it was because the Emotion Ghost is at the City-Destruction Level of strength, while this kid was barely at the level of Red Robe.

Even if the opponent chose to coexist with it, his body nearly couldn’t contain the ghost’s power.

After all, no matter how special a cup is, it can’t immediately hold an entire barrel of water.

If it were someone like He Zhan or Sun Zhoushan, who were already naturally strong Awakened individuals, at most, there would be the kind of pain when taking medicine, but the feeling of the Emotion Ghost entering the body wouldn’t be so excruciating as if they were about to die.

Looking at Zeng Hu on the ground, who had fainted and whose body was no longer swelling like a ball, just slightly puffy.

Wu Liang stood up, turned around, and waved his hand. A wisp of mist appeared out of nowhere, wrapped him up, and floated him to a corner of the temple to lay him down.

Then he twisted his neck, making a cracking sound, and said, "He probably needs to sleep for a bit longer. Let’s go handle the guys outside first; I’m a bit hungry anyway."

With that, Wu Liang headed towards the outside of the Human Ancestor Temple.

The Nightmare opened its mouth but then closed it without saying anything. 𝗳𝗿𝐞𝕖𝘄𝗲𝕓𝗻𝚘𝚟𝕖𝐥.𝚌𝕠𝕞

It actually wanted to remind Wu Liang that it might be better to stop consuming more City-annihilating Ghosts recently.

Though it had no concrete proof whether Wu Liang’s current abnormal state was related to consuming dozens of City-Destruction Level ghosts in recent days.

But as the strongest spiritual-type special fierce ghost in the Ghost Compendium at the moment,

the Nightmare had a gut feeling—if Wu Liang stopped consuming City-annihilating Ghosts, his abnormal state would gradually improve; otherwise, it would persist.

If he really continued for ten days, the final state might exacerbate into permanent change.

The reason for not speaking up was simple: no matter what Wu Liang became, it would continue to follow him, even if he intended to destroy the world. Then it would be the first to stand out and help.

It is a fierce ghost, without any sense of humanity.

"Are you coming? Why are you standing there blankly? Are you too full?"

Wu Liang’s voice came from outside the Human Ancestor Temple, and the Nightmare quickly replied, "I’m making a mental cage so that the fierce ghost in this kid doesn’t cause any trouble."

After that, it ignored the material structure of the Human Ancestor Temple, slowly floated out to catch up with Wu Liang’s pace.

But just as it got close, it heard Wu Liang say—

"I know what you’re planning to remind me of. Rest assured, I know exactly what I’m doing, clearer than ever."

Upon hearing this, the Nightmare trembled slightly.

Sure enough, Wu Liang’s current state not only brought about cognitive abnormalities but also some changes unknown to himself.

Like earlier when Zeng Hu stepped into the temple, the Nightmare could sense that Wu Liang wasn’t using any of his abilities to read the other’s memory.

Yet, he could accurately state, "This is Nine Dragon Head Peak," as if he had already known what the kid was puzzled about.

This kind of foresight made no sense!

Zeng Hu hadn’t even said anything.

And Wu Liang didn’t say, "This is the Human Ancestor Temple," he firmly asserted that the doubt was about whether this was Nine Dragon Head Peak, which was utterly bizarre!

"Sorry Boss, I..."

"No need to apologize, just do your job, those two on the left are yours."

Wu Liang didn’t wait for the Nightmare to finish, instantly locating the three approaching City-Destruction Level fierce ghosts and moved towards them at high speed.

The Nightmare could only sigh.

Then it followed Wu Liang’s orders and went to deal with the two City-Destruction Level fierce ghosts lurking on the left, which was its job.

"As you wish."

......

......

"Hiss... where is this place?"

It was unclear how much time had passed before Zeng Hu shakily sat up from the floor.

The almost head-splitting headache he had felt earlier still lingered slightly, causing Zeng Hu to not immediately stand up but instead rest against the wall, rubbing his temples and trying to recall what happened.

He remembered meeting Mr. Shadow, who had fed him...

"Where is this place? This damned place is the graveyard of our City-annihilating Ghosts! It’s a massive trap laid by that scourge! It’s your dog’s luck chance of fortune!"

Suddenly, Zeng Hu heard an extremely angry voice in his mind.

Frightened, he screamed.

"Ah! What is it? Where is it hiding?"

But no matter how Zeng Hu looked around, he couldn’t find any trace of another person in the temple, not even the seemingly cold Mr. Shadow from before.

Who was speaking?

"Don’t bother looking, I’m in your head, in your mental world, within your soul," the voice said in a slightly eerie tone: "As of yesterday, I am you, and you are also me."

Right after the voice stopped, Zeng Hu saw a blurred humanoid figure appear in front of him, its face indistinguishable, only a seven-colored halo emanating from its body.

This seven-colored figure stretched lazily through the walls of the Human Ancestor Temple, then returned moments later and said helplessly, "Ha, quite cautious, wrapping around with a mental cage to keep me from escaping? Where could I even escape to?"

This behavior instantly caught Zeng Hu’s attention.

Passing through walls! Isn’t this my Material Penetration? Why can this guy also...

"What do you mean your Material Penetration? Get it right, I’m a spiritual body by nature, is passing through walls that strange?" the seven-colored figure retorted grumpily.

It understood Zeng Hu’s current confusion.

So without waiting for the kid to speak again, it began recounting everything that happened after eating the Immortal Pill of Undying yesterday.

It also bitterly explained Wu Liang’s trap, luring City-Destruction Level fierce ghosts nationwide to their doom with the Immortal Pill of Undying as bait.

If it weren’t attracted by this thing, how could it have ended up like this?

After hearing all of this, Zeng Hu felt dizzy, unable to grasp everything, but he understood one thing—

"Are you telling me that Mr. Shadow single-handedly held off all of Huaxia’s City Destruction!?"

Seeing the kid’s eyes nearly sparkling with admiration, the Emotion Ghost sighed and said, "Not held off, killed! So far, apart from me, no City-annihilating Ghost has visibly left here alive."

After saying this, it scolded in frustration, "Kid! He almost killed you yesterday! Do you understand? That medicine humans can’t consume! He’s a monster!"

Being an Emotion Ghost, it more easily sensed that this young boy Zeng Hu, from the depths of his heart, held no ill will towards Wu Liang!

Damn it! How could this be!

How was it supposed to incite him to grow strong with the goal of killing Wu Liang? Was this human brainwashed? There wasn’t any sign of such manipulation!

To hear a ghost call Wu Liang a monster, Zeng Hu felt a bizarre sense of absurdity.

But he still firmly shook his head and said, "I believe Mr. Shadow wouldn’t kill me, especially since you said he blocked these City Destruction disasters for all of Huaxia, he’s an official hero!"

After hearing this, the Emotion Ghost couldn’t help but chuckle.

It turned its gaze towards the entrance of the Human Ancestor Temple, more accurately, to the young boy in a black cloak who had unknowingly walked inside.

It mockingly remarked, "Hero? I can’t sense any human aura from him... this monster is more of a ghost than me!"

"!?"
