Ghost Catching System

All the way, flying on the sword, the guide was leading the way. He was consuming too much energy and was extremely weak after just retrieving his flesh.

Even the guide praised Chu Hao’s flying prowess, saying it was incredible, no wonder he could obtain the Dead Man’s Fruit from the cave.

After flying for half a day, they finally reached the Land of Nangu.

The Land of Nangu was no longer covered in fluttering snow; black mountains, scattered all over, were purple crystal stones.

The guide said, ”Below is the Land of Nangu; some ghost demons are said to be born here.”

Li Yin couldn’t understand and asked, ”What exactly are ghost demons? Aren’t they human transformations?”

The guide replied, ”So-called ghost demons are creatures of the Rebirth Realm, evolving between heaven and earth. Some special ghost demons exist, like those below the cave, once powerful beings of the Rebirth Realm, guiding the Dark Ages.”

Chu Hao was curious and asked, ”Dark Ages?”

The guide shook his head and said, ”I’m not clear on specifics; the Rebirth Realm went through a dark era, which led to its current despair and darkness.”

”Be careful, Mouse,” Li Yin warned.

Chu Hao nodded, flying on the sword into the Land of Nangu and seeing countless purple crystals.

The guide mentioned that hidden within the purple crystals was enormous energy, sensed only by the dead.

The place was very quiet, making it difficult to find ghost demons.

After walking for a while, Chu Hao suddenly noticed something within a massive purple crystal.

Taking a closer look, he was startled.

It wasn’t something within the purple crystal but rather a reflection of a figure, an eyeless woman.

Chu Hao turned sharply, seeing the eyeless woman in ancient attire not far behind him.

She had followed him.

Chu Hao’s scalp tingled with fear, unable to shake off their presence?

Only slightly apprehensive, he relaxed, realizing the woman was merely a consciousness.

But he felt guilty, having taken something from her.

He ignored her and continued walking.

System prompt: ”Prompting host to take out the Dead Man’s Scripture to sense the presence of ghost demons.”

Chu Hao curiously asked, ”System, since when have you been so kind to remind me?”

System replied, ”Capturing a ghost demon exceeding the host’s original level; system prompts once, no next time.”

Chu Hao said, ”I always feel like you have ulterior motives.”

System responded, ”Foolish host, catch or not.”

Used to the system’s mocking tone, Chu Hao shrugged and took out the Dead Man’s Scripture.

This Dead Man’s Scripture was an ancient book with a heavy, solid feel, a black leather surface of unknown material, smooth to the touch like a woman’s skin.

Chu Hao opened the Dead Man’s Scripture; it emitted a black glow, pointing to a location.

Is there a ghost demon in this direction?

He continued ahead.

Finally, midway up a purple crystal mountain, he saw a sword covered in rust.

Is the sword a ghost demon?

As Chu Hao approached, he realized the sword wasn’t the ghost demon, but where it was thrust, there lay a corpse, the black glow from the Dead Man’s Scripture pointing at it!

Is this corpse a ghost demon?

This corpse was completely ruined, entirely decayed, with gray matter entwined, devoid of any vitality.

Surprised, Chu Hao found that outside Hell Gate, this corpse still had gray matter.

Chu Hao asked, ”System, is this ghost demon okay, being dead like this?”

System said, ”This ghost demon suits the host, applicable for the Dead Man’s dead spirit.”

Chu Hao couldn’t help but say, ”Can’t we be more selective?”

Chu Hao was feeling a bit disdainful at this point.

System said, ”Other ghost demons, the host may not catch, only end up dead.”

Chu Hao was speechless.

”Okay, let’s go with this one,” he said.

Chu Hao opened the Dead Man’s Scripture.

The scripture emitted black particle lights, enveloping the corpse beneath the sword.

That sword, having weathered unknown ages, ultimately disintegrated to ashes and disappeared.

The corpse was finally surrounded by black particles and absorbed into the Dead Man’s Scripture.

”Ding... Dead Man’s Scripture captured an unknown ghost demon, would you recognize this ghost demon as the scripture’s dead spirit?”

Chu Hao said, ”This one then.”

”Ding... Requesting host to pay twenty thousand Pretentiousness Points.”

Chu Hao, frustrated, said, ”Where do I have twenty thousand Pretentiousness Points? Are you kidding me?”

System prompt: ”Recommend host to use the Pretentious Little Prince support plan.”

Almost forgot, Brother Hao still has the Pretentious Little Prince support plan.

But spending the support plan on merely twenty thousand Pretentiousness Points isn’t worth it.

Chu Hao was deeply conflicted.

Just then.

System prompt: ”Beep beep... detected this ghost demon cannot become a Dead Man’s Scripture dead spirit.”

Chu Hao was shocked and said, ”What do you mean? Why not now?”

System prompt: ”This ghost demon’s level is too high.”

Too high level?

Chu Hao was startled, the ghost demon beneath the sword, looking thoroughly dead, couldn’t be recognized as a dead spirit, what’s its origin?

Chu Hao quickly said, ”Hurry and send it out, don’t want it.”

A moment later.

System prompt: ”Unable to send this ghost demon out, powerful consciousness occupied the Dead Man’s Scripture; system level insufficient, please upgrade.”

”Requesting host to pay fifty thousand Pretentiousness Points to send it out.”

Chu Hao was dumbfounded.

This ghost demon is stuck inside the Dead Man’s Scripture?

Where does Brother find fifty thousand Pretentiousness Points?

Does he really have to waste the support plan?

Ending up empty-handed?

Chu Hao asked anxiously, ”System, quickly think of a solution?”

System: ”Uh... Host, seek your own fortune!”

”What use are you!” Chu Hao was angry.

Chu Hao opened the Dead Man’s Scripture, grumbled, ”Boss, my little temple cannot house such a great god like you; please find another place?”

Clearly, Chu Hao was talking to himself, as the ghost demon didn’t respond.

This thing really treated the Dead Man’s Scripture as its home, unwilling to leave.

Chu Hao’s disappointment reached its peak; was his dead spirit plan ruined?

Chu Hao asked, ”System, if upgraded to Pretentious Little Sky King, can it be offered as a tribute?”

System: ”Pretentious Little Sky King level, system will upgrade, and yes.”

Chu Hao was delighted inwardly, sneered, ”Since you don’t want to leave, stay inside.”

The dead spirit plan fizzled, but he wanted to offer a ghost demon as tribute to unlock the Dead Man’s Scripture.

Yet, where to find ghost demons easily?

Chu Hao searched the Land of Nangu for a day, but aside from the previous ghost demon, he didn’t encounter a single ghost shadow.

Especially at night; Chu Hao heightened his senses, always feeling watched, yet unable to find the observer.

This feeling was incredibly bothersome.

Previously, even when the guide had no flesh, it was the same, unable to see the other party.

Chu Hao trusted his intuition, shivering slightly, and hurriedly left the Land of Nangu.

Leaving the Land of Nangu.

The guide increasingly felt Chu Hao’s peculiar nature; this kid is best not provoked.

The next step is to wait for three months to leave the Rebirth Realm.

A boring three months passed in this dead silent Rebirth Realm, indeed difficult.

”Ding... Host opened the Gold Diamond Treasure Chest, obtaining the Yin Yang True Solution lower part, First Stage.”

Luck was good, obtaining what he wanted most.

The lower part of Yin Yang True Solution, after learning, opens the left eye of Tai Chi Pupil.

Having long enjoyed the benefits of the right eye, he greatly anticipated the left eye’s abilities.

”Learn.”
