If the low-cost experiment is successful, then the next step is to see what kind of sacrifice is required for the more costly rule.
Zhang Baye knew very well that when Chosen Ones overuse their talents, they would experience dizziness, blurred vision, or even faint on the spot. Moreover, each Chosen One's talent was not particularly strong at the beginning, so she had to find her own critical point.
At the very least, we need to figure out which rules can be solved using talent, and which rules cannot.
Having found the cat again, Zhang Baye disguised himself as an ordinary little girl, gently tugging at her cat's fur, and taking small steps, following the cat around shopping.
After shopping, it was time to go home.
"Let's go." The cat flicked her big tail again, feeling very happy because she had just gotten a bargain.
Zhang Baye nodded, his palms sweating.
After all, she didn't make the transaction in the presence of the elusive ghost when she "bought" the folding knife, so she would inevitably encounter some obstacles when leaving the ghost market, such as the unlucky strays that Yin Zhu saw back then.
When he reached the edge, Zhang Baye stopped.
"What's wrong?" the cat asked, puzzled. It felt that the little girl it had picked up this time was a bit strange.
Zhang Baye did not answer the cat demon's question, but tentatively stepped out of the ghost market. However, the next second, countless skeletal hands reached out from the ground, vying to pull Zhang Baye into the dark red soil and merge her with them.
"Meow!"
The cat was so frightened that its fur stood on end, its whole body arched, and its two tails were about to wrap around Zhang Baye and snatch her back from the skeleton.
However, the skeleton hands were a bit faster.
They approached Zhang Baye first and were about to grab her legs.
A thick, eerie green flame suddenly erupted from Zhang Baye, spreading outwards. The skeletons, which barely touched it, immediately recoiled in terror, and the originally pale bones at their fingertips were now charred black.
These are just the views shown in the live stream.
As for the content that couldn't be seen in the live stream, Zhang Baye had already personally felt the existence of [Hellfire].
The fire seemed to start from his chest, and within a second, Zhang Baye felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave. His whole body seemed to have been drained of strength. He was very cold and almost lost consciousness, but his mind was perfectly clear as he watched the flames continue to spread outward, burning his skeletal hands and causing them to dodge.
Suddenly, two large, white tails wrapped around Zhang Baye's body, and the next second, they started running wildly on all fours.
[Hellfire] seems to have been interrupted instantly, or perhaps it has completed its mission.
That bone-chilling cold returned from his skin to his core, but this time, instead of returning to his chest, it rose to his brain. Stimulated by the cold, Zhang Baye suddenly snapped out of his compulsive state of consciousness.
So tired, I want to sleep...
I feel so light, like I'm about to fly...
Could it be that I've overused my talent?
My head hurts... I guess it'll be fine after I fall asleep... Let me sleep for a while...
With his mind in complete chaos, Zhang Baye gradually drifted off to sleep in the warm, furry environment and quickly entered a deep sleep.
"You brat, you've gotten me into big trouble!"
The cat felt Zhang Baye's breathing gradually slow and natural in its tail, and immediately realized that she had fainted. It couldn't help but mutter curses: "Violating the rules on Lord Shuten-dōji's territory and openly attacking the law enforcement skeleton... I didn't expect you to be such a great monster."
If it's a small monster, it simply won't be able to escape being captured by the demon's hand at the beginning.
Unable to return home and implicate the kappa for the time being, the cat leaped onto the roof of a house, remained silent for a moment, then soared high into the air, deciding to seek refuge at a friend's place to avoid trouble. Moreover, it needed to find a friend whose house had many demons, making it easier to blend in and less likely to be discovered by Lord Shuten-dōji.
Even if Lord Shuten-dōji is concerned about saving face, he will eventually calm down and won't pursue the matter further.
Under the moonlight, the two-tailed giant cat stepped over a stone engraved with "Ghost Village Middle School" and jumped into the pitch-black school grounds where the teaching building was located.
...
After washing the dishes, Kenji Yamamoto naturally didn't go straight back to his dorm.
Unlike Yin Zhu, who learned the rules of Mount Ooe directly from Hana-hime (Hirano Sana), he was unaware of the hidden rules that existed there:
7. Entry to the Chrysanthemum Room, the Royal Palace Garden, and the Underground Palace is prohibited at all times. If you get lost within the Ōeyama Royal Palace, please pay attention to the signs in each area you are visiting to avoid accidentally entering restricted areas.
So, Kenji Yamamoto, who had a dream, took advantage of his free afternoon and wandered around the Oeyama Royal Palace.
From the outside, one only senses that the Ōeyama Royal Palace covers a vast area. But once inside, it's clear it rivals the Forbidden City of China. Different rooms are connected to other rooms, and Kenji Yamamoto saw the road signs near the Tenki Gyoen Garden three times.
Speaking of which... I hope he doesn't get lost.
After seeing a sign for a building for the third time, Kenji Yamamoto suddenly began to have doubts.
There is no daytime in the Ghost Realm; the night sky is a false wallpaper. You cannot distinguish directions or time by the stars and the sun, and the senses of the Chosen Ones will gradually become dulled in this environment.
After realizing he was lost, Kenji Yamamoto began to worry about how to get back to the restaurant.
After all, dinner is also provided here.
