Ghost Catching System

Chu Hao stroked his chin and smiled. ”The Ghost Gate Pass leading to the Underworld... quite interesting.”

Dong Qi also came over, saying anxiously, ”The Cult Leader of the Nether Cult is extremely powerful. Fifty years ago, he went to Mao Mountain alone and killed someone at the Maoshan Patriarch level.”

Fifty years ago! This Emperor Bai Jiang looks to be in his twenties, yet he’s an old demon.

”Moreover, what he released just now must be one of the Seven Treasures, the Yin Yang Mirror, no doubt about it. Legend has it, the abilities of the Yin Yang Mirror are enigmatic and beyond the control of ordinary people.”

The Seven Treasures consist of seven artifacts. It is said that when brought together, they can reverse heaven and earth, invert life and death, cause the deceased to return to the Yang Realm, and create great chaos in the Three Realms.

Becoming somewhat interested in the Seven Treasures, Chu Hao asked, ”What are the Seven Treasures?”

Liang Qian and Dong Qi looked at each other, thinking that Chu Hao already knew, given his impressive abilities.

Chu Hao saw the puzzled expressions on their faces. He couldn’t reveal his ignorance, so he said nonchalantly, feigning superiority, ”These so-called Seven Treasures? This Heavenly Master doesn’t deign to know about them. Magic Artifacts of such poor quality are no better than trash before me.”

”DING... The Host’s nonchalant display of pretentiousness has earned 500 Pretentiousness Points.”

Showing off as swift as the wind—that was him; even in ignorance, he insisted on feigning profound understanding.

Dong Qi grew somewhat excited, even starting to admire Chu Hao. ”My Lord speaks the truth. The Seven Treasures are the pen, sword, talisman, gourd, skull, mirror, and whip, respectively.”

Xu Qian also said, ”According to the ranking, the Yin Yang Mirror is second to last, while the fabled Taoist mantra pen ranks first.”

The mantra pen is first? Come to think of it, that makes sense. The True Word Brush’s horrifying 200,000 Pretentiousness Points are enough to make anyone pale!

Chu Hao couldn’t help but laugh. ”What kind of bullshit ranking is this? Where does that leave Divine Artifacts like Xuan Yuan’s Sword and the Demon-Refining Pot?”

After the two exchanged a glance, Xu Qian said, ”Master Chu, Xuan Yuan’s Sword and the Demon-Refining Pot belong to the realm of legendary Divine Artifacts; their very existence is still a matter of debate.”

Waving his hand, Chu Hao said, ”Alright, isn’t this kid just asking me to deal with him? I’ll be right back.”

Saying this, Chu Hao stepped into the spatial passage.

As he entered, the spatial passage disappeared without a trace. The customers of the Sanqing Pavilion clapped and cheered, finding the magic trick spellbinding.

However, those who knew Chu Hao were each shocked to their core. Has he really gone to the Underworld?

Qin Boren warned Qin Yishan, ”See that? As long as you curry favor with such a God, even if you die and go to the Underworld, you’ll receive special treatment.”

Qin Yishan nodded blankly.

Chu Hao stepped into the spatial passage. The next moment, it felt as if he had plunged into an endless abyss.

The next second, he appeared in a pitch-black land, desolate with craggy rocks and wild weeds—a scene of utter desolation.

Looking up, he saw a huge, rotating column of light above his head, with endless souls falling like a storm into this place.

Two majestic mountains loomed like primeval chaos. A mountain gate, thousands of feet high, stood very far from this spot, but one could faintly make out three large characters: Ghost Gate Pass.

He had arrived at the legendary Ghost Gate Pass.

It was Chu Hao’s first time in the Underworld, and he felt a mix of curiosity and excitement.

In the distance, Emperor Bai Jiang stood with his hands behind his back, gliding like a phantom. He covered several meters in a single step, an eerie sight, as he called out, ”Chu Hao, do you dare to follow me?”

However, he saw Chu Hao holding his phone, striking numerous cheeky selfie poses. Even for a Cult Leader as composed as Emperor Bai Jiang, this was enough to make his head throb.

Since his physical body had entered the Underworld, his personal belongings had come with him.

Chu Hao was somewhat excited. He really wanted to post these photos on his WeChat Moments, captioning them ’An Underworld Tour!’ That would definitely be the ultimate show-off.

However, a very significant discovery made Chu Hao jump with excitement.

There’s actually a signal in the Underworld? This discovery seemed absolutely unbelievable to him. Could it be that even Ghost Gate Pass has a mobile signal tower? This is awesome!

Emperor Bai Jiang took a deep breath and shouted again from halfway up the slope, ”Chu Hao, do you dare to face this Cult Leader or not!”

Chu Hao was too excited to pay him any attention. Already in high spirits, he posted an update to his WeChat Moments with a massive number of photos from the Underworld, including his selfies. There were pictures of all sorts of scenes, including the Ghost Gate Pass.

The caption below read: ”Just visited the Underworld. Not that impressed.”

At that moment, his WeChat exploded.

”DING... Host’s showboating successful, earned 500 Pretentiousness Points.”

”DING... Host’s shocking showboating successful, earned 1,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

BWAHAHA... Awesome! A total of 1,500 Pretentiousness Points!

Li Yin: ”Damn!! Damn!! What else can I say! My Brother Hao is invincible.”

Luo Yan: ”I bow to no one but you! How did you do that?”

Fang Linxuan: ”The Underworld? Ghost Gate Pass? You’re joking, right?”

Yu Sicheng: ”My Brother Hao is so cool! I bow down and beg to be taken along.”

Wang Meng: ”Can someone tell me if I’m dreaming? Holy crap! What is that pillar of light? It’s freaking amazing!”

Yi Qinglian: ”⊙﹏⊙! So scary.”

Tang Mo: ”If I’m not impressed by you, who else is there to be impressed by?”

Ju Desheng: ”Start a live stream! I strongly demand it!”

Old Yuan: ”I’ve got my small stool ready, sunflower seeds and popcorn all set. Let the live stream begin, my Heavenly Master Chu Tian!”

Chu Hao, seeing the massive wave of comments and the Pretentiousness Points he had received, felt exhilarated. Indeed, his WeChat had blown up, completely off the charts.

At this moment in the Yang Realm, everyone went berserk. They stared in disbelief and shouted in amazement. No one could focus on business; they were too busy preparing their small stools and popcorn.

With such a great opportunity, how could a live stream be missed?

He then posted another message on Moments: ”Going live! Room 15***.”

Then, he summoned Diao Chan.

Diao Chan was clearly asleep. Stretching and yawning languidly, a picture of seductive charm, she said, ”Brother Chu Hao, what do you need from me?”

”Babe, stop sleeping. Hurry up and start the live stream with your phone.”

”Oh.”

As soon as the live streaming room opened, a large crowd rushed in. Luo Yan joined, then Yi Qinglian, followed by Tang Mo, Qin Boren, Cao Shanhe, Liu Qingyan, and countless others.

The Seventh District was, of course, alerted immediately. Old Yuan led a group of Seventh District employees, their small stools ready, to watch this textbook-level figure.

Upon entering the live stream, everyone immediately saw Chu Hao’s back.

The young man’s back added an air of mystery.

Chu Hao stood with his hands behind his back, embodying the solitude of a master. He gazed out at the mountain of the Ghost Gate. In the live streaming room, the audience saw the boundless and imposing gate and felt greatly shaken.

They listened as Chu Hao spoke in a calm tone, every bit the demeanor of a Grandmaster, pointing towards the Ghost Gate.

”At Hell’s end, who dares claim the vanguard? In my presence, all greatness turns to naught!”

”DING... Host’s showboating successful, earned 500 Pretentiousness Points.”

”DING... Host’s profound showboating successful, earned 500 Pretentiousness Points.”

”DING... Host’s uniquely stylish showboating earned a critical hit of 1,000 Pretentiousness Points.”

BWAHAHA... Another 2,000 Pretentiousness Points!

Inside the live streaming room, a crowd started spamming ”666...”

Chu Hao was not only showing off but doing it in such a profound and unfathomable way. That phrase, ”In my presence, all greatness turns to naught!” was a challenge to all the Ghost Gods of the Underworld. Who would dare contend with him?

It was simply cool beyond belief, wasn’t it?

What dominance!

What an aura!

This was a display of pretentiousness to be savored endlessly.
