"Oh dear, it's windy here, sir. Let me go down and get you a cup of tea and a few stools!"
He gently patted Zhang Xianguang's shoulder, causing the vengeful spirit within him to subside for a moment. He then teleported directly into the Ghost Realm, leaving the rooftop to the father and son.
"Isn't it dangerous?"
Looking at his son, who stood awkwardly in front of him, his hair beginning to turn gray and his figure showing signs of aging, even though the Ghost Master had long since lost much of his emotions due to the influence of the supernatural.
But in those numb and empty eyes, there was still a kind of emotion called concern.
"With Uncle Luo's Ghost Post Office suppressing me, my consciousness cannot be extinguished. If I can endure this for a few more years, I should be able to take another step forward and touch your domain."
The supernatural driving paths of the Republic of China era and those of today are actually two different paths.
The path of ghost tamers before the Republic of China era is untraceable, but what was prevalent during the Republic of China era can be summarized in one word: inheritance.
Inheriting the supernatural abilities of their fathers, they constantly push a certain area to its limit!
The Seven Elders of the Republic of China, along with Elder Qin, were the pinnacle of this path!
They are very strong, but they also have flaws, because their bodies are still human! And as long as they are human, they will die!
And so, the idea of an outcast began to take shape in the minds of young people! Zhang Xianguang himself was even the first outcast on record.
Theoretically immortal, possessing the body of a ghost, they will only gradually lose their memories and humanity over time and through conflicts with the supernatural, eventually transforming back into vengeful ghosts—the ghost tamers.
However, this path, which seemed to have a higher ceiling than the Republic of China era, also encountered a hurdle at a certain point.
Human consciousness is far too weak!
Once you become an anomaly, the supernatural balance you maintain cannot be easily broken again. Once that supernatural balance is broken, your body has become a ghost, and even your consciousness is just an anomaly that is attached to a program on the ghost.
It's quite simple; through repeated supernatural conflicts, one will lose their memory, lose the very foundation of their existence, and truly transform into a ghost.
Therefore, Zhang Xianguang's path was wrong! He was stuck in the rank below the Seven Elders, completely losing the potential to advance further.
It's just that no one knows what he has found or what kind of ideas he has developed over the years, which is why his original body has become the director of the Ghost Post Office and can maintain his consciousness as long as he is in the post office.
Even if things get worse in the future, with Lin Nian as his insurance now, Zhang Xianguang has begun to improve himself, and clearly, he has succeeded!
To truly enter the realm of the Seven Elders, even if it's just to be at the bottom!
But while it can be called a success, it's not a complete success! At the very least, if it weren't for the Ghost Post Office protecting his physical body, his consciousness would have been completely worn away long ago. It's unknown how long it will take before he can truly succeed and complete that final half-step.
“That path has reopened! Although we don’t know exactly where it is now, I can feel the energy it’s emanating.”
"In recent years, Xiao Nian has basically imprisoned most of the real-world vengeful ghosts. Those that have been released have been dispersed by him. In the next ten years, unless someone deliberately raises ghosts, they won't cause much trouble."
“We don’t have much time left, and we don’t want to hold on any longer. Although Xiao Qin can see the future, his condition is getting worse and worse. This visit to you should be the last time we see each other.”
"Go ahead and do whatever you want! I can still help you clean up the mess in the next few years! But, we must leave hope for the future! Even if it's very difficult! Very difficult."
His words, devoid of any emotional fluctuation, combined with the old man's appearance and demeanor that were that of a vengeful ghost.
In the guise of a world-destroying demon, he uttered the most compassionate words. But perhaps this is the only thing that allows the demon tamers to survive in this desperate world! Even though their bodies and minds have been corrupted into demons, they still believe themselves to be human!
Even though the world has already driven them to despair, causing them to collapse time and time again, and constantly contemplating self-destruction...
The old man, dressed in a Zhongshan suit, took one last look at his son, whom he seemed to have spent very little time with, before disappearing from the rooftop.
Throughout the entire ordeal, Zhang Xianguang, being an outsider, never noticed when his father arrived or when he left.
"The old man has passed away!"
Holding three stools and three cups of tea, Lin Nian appeared in an instant. He looked at the ancient house and the small forest in Dazhou City, which was now the most terrifying haunted place in the world. He felt helpless about the haunted places he had set up.
After all, although his supernatural abilities were enhanced by this, they were also dispersed in many ways. However, these dispersed elements could be integrated through his own supernatural characteristics and, over time, be forged back into one, becoming even stronger.
But... this cannot deny that before he grew up, at least now, any one of Luo Wensong, Luo Qian, and Zhang Dong could easily beat him up.
As for Meng Xiaodong and Meng Lao's infinite invasion? Well, ever since his supernatural powers underwent a complete evolution, unless Meng Xiaodong manages to control Shen Lin and Li Leping, Lin Nian is now truly not afraid of him.
Of course, if things really came to that, apart from Zhang Dong personally intervening when he returned to his prime, the other seven elders of the Republic of China could only do their best to protect themselves.
At 18, with abilities comparable to the Seven Elders of the Republic of China, he still feels hopeless about the world. What should he do?
With random thoughts swirling in her mind, Lin Nian continued creating her own unique supernatural clone after saying goodbye to Zhang Xianguang.
The Underworld has 12 stations, each with 12 super S-class, unstoppable vengeful ghosts! Or even more!
As for how to establish the so-called Six Paths of Reincarnation? One can only say that in this world where all rules have been corrupted and transformed into ghosts, you can't find that ghost; you don't even have the most basic methods!
Inside the magnificent golden house, a pool of ghosts quietly appeared beneath Lin Nian's feet, from which emerged numerous fierce ghosts, their bodies fragmented and dismembered.
"The Earth God Temple lacks ghost messengers and supernatural abilities. As for the Road to the Underworld, I can construct it myself using supernatural abilities. As for the Looking-Homeward Terrace, my own supernatural ability is that seeing it means certain death, and feeling it means certain death. All I need to do is capture the Mirror Ghost to build the core."
"Evil Dog Ridge needs Yang Xiao's ghostly dreams, Golden Rooster Ridge..."
Thinking back to that giant rooster that could split itself into two that I'd attracted in haunted places over the past few years, the feeling of having my eyes constantly pecked out and my body hollowed out was truly...
"Damn, I have no idea how this ghost was created? Could it be another kind of supernatural being like Ghost Dream?"
He shook his head, shaking off the psychological trauma caused by the rooster. He had no need to worry or fear the vengeful spirit that he had now controlled, suppressed, and begun to merge with.
