Whether it's dealing with a ghost master or a person, the most important thing is not how powerful your abilities are, but how detailed your information and intelligence are.
Ghosts, although terrifying,
once you have fought with one and discerned the ghost's behavioral patterns, and have mastered the methods and means to kill it, surviving from a ghost's clutches becomes much easier.
Apart from a few inexplicable supernatural events, there is usually a glimmer of hope in other situations—it just depends on whether you can find it or not.
Wang Xiaoqiang, bringing Ye Feng with him, must have come fully prepared.
They surely knew everything they needed to know about Yang Jian.
But Yang Jian knew nothing about Ye Feng.
He knew only that Ye Feng controlled two ghosts and was a very dangerous ghost master, but beyond that, he was a mystery.
So this was not a fair contest.
From start to finish, Yang Jian was at a complete disadvantage, and the fact that he was still alive and not dead could only be attributed to his incredibly indecipherable self-protective abilities in the Ghost Domain. If it had been any other ghost master, they would likely be a corpse by now.
"Taking you down isn't hard at all, but for you to take me down, it's not so easy. You have used the abilities of both ghosts, and this is all you have."
Ye Feng watched Yang Jian retreat, a cold smile appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Just as planned, as long as they could restrict his Ghost Domain, dealing with Yang Jian would become a very easy task.
Yang Jian frowned, silent, with a hint of wariness in his eyes.
He didn't care much about the ghost shroud Ye Feng wore; he was concerned about what the second ghost was. If he could ascertain that, today's matter could be quickly resolved.
Dragging this out wouldn't be good for either party.
Using the power of fierce ghosts excessively could still lead to death from ghost resurrection, even for someone who controlled two ghosts.
"What's the use of all this nonsense if your skills are only this much?" Yang Jian said.
"No need to hurry. You will soon understand that even if both of us control two ghosts, there is still a gap between us," Ye Feng said slowly approaching Yang Jian.
As he walked, from beneath the sleeves of his shroud, droplets of scarlet blood were dripping ominously.
Yang Jian, seeing the falling blood that was thick and dark as if extracted from a long-dead corpse,
thought of Yan Li's Ghost Blood.
Yan Li was a man permeated with Ghost Blood.
But he did not believe this was Ye Feng's ability. As far as he could tell, there shouldn't be two powers that were exactly the same.
"No, it's not blood. There is something else beneath his shroud," Yang Jian said, his expression turning stern.
He saw something crawling beneath Ye Feng's shroud, bulging it out ominously.
Whatever it was, it must be a very strange and dangerous entity that even the shroud on his body could not suppress.
Just like Yang Jian, although Ghost Eye and Ghost Shadow seemed balanced, in reality, there was a difference in strength. For now, it appeared that Ghost Eye was overpowering Ghost Shadow, and Ye Feng was similar.
The shroud he wore must be inferior to whatever was underneath it.
The dripping blood only proved that the second ghost inside Ye Feng was growing restless.
"To be on the safe side, I can't let him make the first move; I must subdue him," Yang Jian thought, his eyes narrowing. Although he kept retreating within the Ghost Domain, he would soon have nowhere left to retreat.
Rather than fear his other unknown ghost, it was better to take action first.
But at the moment, the Ghost Domain created by Ghost Eye was pinned to the ground by a withered finger, and Ghost Shadow couldn't cause any harm to Ye Feng; it seemed as though his own methods had been exhausted.
However, this was not the case.
He still had one ghost in his hand.
The Ghost Rope that he used to kill Wang Yue in the center of Dachang City and successfully imprisoned.
That rope could bind even fierce ghosts.
If the rope could bind fierce ghosts, it naturally could also bind a ghost master.
Right now, though, that thing was in the villa.
Yang Jian's eyes narrowed as the Ghost Domain extended toward the nearby villa.
Even though the Ghost Domain was confined to a certain range, that range could be changed.
Immediately, a red light streaked along the ground and into the villa not far away.
"Thinking of escaping?" Upon seeing this, Ye Feng quickly gave chase.
Relying on some strange power, he managed to force his way directly into the Ghost Domain.
Knowing that Yang Jian was out of options, he wouldn't let this opportunity slip away.
If he couldn't eliminate Yang Jian today, he would leave a significant problem for himself in the future,
The blood beneath the shroud began to drip faster and more densely.
But Ye Feng still chose to suppress the other ghost because it wasn't time to act yet.
Yet the Ghost Domain was too small, there was no room to maneuver, and he was wearing that Ghost Shroud, which made other ghastly beings' powers extremely insignificant against him.
A gunshot rang out, and a bullet flew from some unseen place, striking Ye Feng directly.
Yet Ye Feng remained unscathed; the bullet fell powerlessly from the Shroud.
"It's useless, the Ghost Cloth isn't just a piece of clothing, it's a ghost. You think you can take me down with a few bullets? That's a dream," Ye Feng said.
Another gunshot sounded.
This time it was aimed at Ye Feng's head.
But the Shroud on his body seemed to be lifted by a gust of ghostly wind, covering a corner of his face.
The bullet was once again forcibly stopped by the thin Shroud.
No matter from which angle the attack came, none could harm Ye Feng in the slightest.
Let alone the other ghost residing within his body, just this Ghost Shroud alone was an unsolvable existence already.
The power of vengeful ghosts or the force of firearms, none could inflict injury upon him.
But Yang Jian's purpose in firing the gun wasn't to kill him, it was just to buy a little time.
Following the Ghost Domain, he arrived at the villa and quickly grabbed the sealed golden pouch.
Inside the pouch was the Ghost Rope.
"This thing has fully awakened. Ordinary people cannot control it. Once released, not just this place, perhaps the entire city would suffer. Therefore, it can only be used within the Ghost Domain," Yang Jian said with wariness.
He thought back to the previous incident involving the Door Knocking Ghost where the Ghost Rope had reawakened.
The entire street was filled with ropes dangling in search of lives to claim.
If touched, one would instantly be entwined and hanged to death.
The same fate awaited even those who could command ghosts.
Hence, the Rope could not make an appearance in reality; it had to be used within a specific range for easier confinement afterward.
Without giving it much thought, Yang Jian tore open the golden pouch inside the Ghost Domain.
An old rope appeared before him.
Without a second thought.
Yang Jian immediately threw the rope out.
"What is this?" Ye Feng had not seen the Ghost Rope; he only saw something flying towards him and then, on instinct, caught it.
The rough texture, chilling aura, it seemed like a worthless rope made from roadside weeds.
It didn't look threatening in the least.
However, when Ye Feng caught it, his pupils suddenly narrowed, and he cried out in shock, "Wang Yue's Ghost Rope?"
Almost instantly, he thought to throw the rope away.
And the rope was tossed.
Yet, he suddenly discovered many ropes drifting above his head.
Not just from above, but from the front, back, multiple ropes as if controlled by some force, all drifting toward his direction.
"Yang Jian, how dare you release a reawakened vengeful ghost?" Seeing this, Ye Feng understood that the Rope had escaped the ghost user's control and was in a state of awakening.
He was both shocked and furious.
"You want to drag me to death with you?" Ye Feng roared, becoming a bit unsettled.
Yang Jian said, "No, the last person to die will definitely be you. I think I can hold out longer than you can."
Nothing but Ghost Ropes were in sight now, they blocked the path forward.
Currently trapped within the Ghost Domain, both men were in a similar predicament.
The only difference was who would be the first to be attacked by the Ghost Rope.
