Chapter 158: The Shattered Ghost Mirror
Clearly, only two people were standing in front of the Ghost Mirror, but inside the mirror, there existed Two Ghosts and one person.
The Ghost Finger as the medium unsurprisingly appeared within the Ghost Mirror.
At this time, Shen Bao existing in the past inside the mirror had gray-white hands and arms, his skin presenting a fibrous texture like the roots of aquatic plants, continuously rotting with Time Flow.
A weird confrontation appeared between the Ghost Rain and the Ghost Mirror. Not only that, the Ghost Mirror was now showing an extremely weird state.
Mirror Surface, Reflection, Projection.
For the ghost in the Ghost Mirror to step out of the mirror and replace Jiang Shan, it first needed to pass through the Ghost Rain.
The Projection of the Ghost Rain seemed to be hindering, affecting, and changing the Reflection of the Ghost Mirror. Nearly identical yet different Patterns invisibly altered certain Supernatural phenomena.
The ghost in the mirror was unable to step out of the Ghost Mirror for a long time, as a layer of damp Rainwater seemed to permanently separate the medium between it and Jiang Shan.
Therefore, Jiang Shan’s already dead Body was not replaced by the ghost in the Ghost Mirror. Even standing in front of the Ghost Mirror the whole time, no anomaly occurred. Normally, Jiang Shan would have long been dragged into the Ghost Mirror and torn apart to death by Hundred Ghosts.
It seemed like there was no change, but the change had already appeared.
The Ghost Mirror was suppressed!
To steal the Ghost Lotus controlled by Shen Bao as an Anomaly, the power of the Ghost Rain alone was not enough, so the Supernatural nature of the Ghost Mirror was crucial.
Because the Terror Level of the Ghost Rain was stronger than that of the Ghost Mirror, under the influence of some Pattern, the Ghost Rain used the Ghost Mirror to, like Oust and Take Over, apply its Pattern to Jiang Shan and Shen Bao.
At this moment, on Jiang Shan’s corpse, cyan-black fibrous threads inexplicably began to grow, forming a weird Palm like lotus petals, and there were more and more of them, as if he too was turning into a Dead Person Lotus of the Ghost Pool.
At the same time,
Inside the mirror, Shen Bao, who was being tugged by countless Palms, had already passed out under endless Supernatural Erosion. His Body began to turn gray and was even oozing black liquid.
If not for the Short Old Man “crouched on the other side of the Ghost Mirror” in a weird posture grabbing Shen Bao with one hand, he would probably have long been pulled into the Darkness by the countless Fierce Ghosts in the Ghost Mirror.
A delicate Balance was being maintained inside the Ghost Mirror.
“Plop~”
Three full hours after Jiang Shan’s Death, a “petal Palm” on He Qiong’s body suddenly fell off in front of the Ghost Mirror.
However, this “Palm” did not fall to the ground but instead fell “directly” onto the Ghost Mirror in a way that defied scientific common sense.
If there were bystanders present at this time, they would notice that the Palm landed exactly on the position of the Ghost Hand in the mirror that was identical to Jiang Shan’s.
At the same time,
A weird Palm grew out from Jiang Shan’s wrist, which had already rotted away to nothing. That hand was ice-cold and stiff, with black nails, and Fingers covered in bruises, patches of blue and black.
However, neither Jiang Shan, whose Consciousness was currently in chaos, nor Shen Bao inside the Ghost Mirror being tugged by countless ghosts noticed this scene.
The rotting on both sides of the mirror continued,
The confrontation between Supernatural phenomena had not stopped.
This “petal Palm” seemed to be part of the Ghost Lotus’s main body, forcibly separated by some power. It weirdly grew onto Jiang Shan’s body through the Ghost Mirror.
“Crack!”
At the fourth hour, the crisp sound of glass cracking suddenly made Cao Yang’s expression change. He gripped the Black Cloth tightly with one hand, large beads of sweat continuously sliding down his forehead.
“The Ghost Mirror is broken? Could Jiang Shan’s Plan have failed? No, there’s no sign of weakening in this water vapor. If Jiang Shan’s Plan failed, it would definitely be because the Balance he envisioned was broken.”
“But now this water vapor is almost no different from before, which means the Balance is still there. Although something happened to the Ghost Mirror, Jiang Shan’s Plan shouldn’t have any major errors yet. Observe a bit more.”
In hesitation, Cao Yang calmly analyzed the Unexpected Change he knew about.
Although his hands were shaking like a sieve, the analytical ability he should have as Captain later was not affected by the Panic in his heart.
Dachun City Longjia Airport.
In the third hour after Jiang Shan’s Death, support from Headquarters had arrived in Dachun City.
Cao Yanhua, looking weary, saw Liu San, Li Jun, Zhou Deng, and dozens of other Ghost Wielders stepping off the Airplane, and he let out a long sigh of relief in his heart.
Although the Ghost Rain’s area of influence had expanded without any abnormal situations occurring until now, its trend of continuous expansion kept him from relaxing his Vigilance.
And there was still no news from Jiang Shan and Cao Yang.
Once they failed to handle this incident, as the Headquarters’ special envoy and the first Branch General Committee Member domestically, Cao Yanhua absolutely could not let the Ghost Rain continue to Resurrect.
He absolutely would not watch a province fall. In his view,
The lives of tens of millions of people were as heavy as Mount Tai!
Therefore, he unhesitatingly mobilized all the Ghost Wielders that Headquarters could deploy to Dachun City.
This was not only to fulfill Jiang Shan’s orders but also, when the worst situation arose, to make the final remedy at the first moment.
Just as Cao Yanhua took a step toward the Ghost Wielders, the message from the Satellite Phone in his Pocket made him freeze in place:
“Committee Member Cao! Someone without identity has appeared!” The voice on the other end of the phone was very excited.
But suddenly,
That voice became terrified, as if something extremely terrifying had happened:
“Committee Member Cao. Nine. No, Nine Ghosts have appeared around that person. The blockade team On the Road at North of the City Triumph Road are all dead!”
Hearing this, Cao Yanhua’s expression changed drastically, and he immediately organized the Ghost Wielders in front of him.
After arranging all the Actions, he looked gravely toward North of the City, at the pouring rain, feeling increasingly Unease in his heart:
“The ghosts in the Ghost Town in the Rain have begun invading Reality, and that Ghost Wielder’s Ninth Life has also Resurrected. Could Jiang Shan already be dead?”
Jiang Shan was more than dead; at this time, his corpse had rotted beyond human form. His arms had disappeared, but he was hovering one-handed in the air, with more and more mini “petal Palms” growing as his body rotted. The whole person was touching the Ghost Mirror with both hands, motionless.
The corpse had maintained this posture for a long time.
If nothing unexpected happened, his corpse would completely rot under some Supernatural influence, eventually leaving only a Skeleton.
Around the fourth hour of Jiang Shan’s Death.
“Plop~ Plop~”
Two petal Palms fell off He Qiong’s body again, smashing onto the Ghost Mirror.
“Crack! Crack~”
The sound of the Ghost Mirror’s Mirror Surface breaking also rang out accordingly.
At this time, the Ghost Mirror already had a very long Crack. If the current trend continued, a few more Palms falling would probably shatter the Mirror Surface completely.
At this moment,
A Yellow Light spread from that infinite Darkness inside the Ghost Mirror, its color clashing with the surrounding Darkness.
Unknown Supernatural appeared.
