The agreed fifteen minutes had only passed eight minutes at this moment.

However, this supernatural place was already beginning to exhibit its truly terrifying nature, countless ghosts with yellow paper covering their faces surged from all directions, and the air was filled with the smell of burning ashes. But Yang Jian was not unfamiliar with all of this, as he had once with Zhou Deng passed by here on a haunted bus while delivering letters.

Only that time, the bus stopped at a crossroads, at that crossroads, there was a fire basin, and what burned within was this kind of yellow paper…..

The crossroads he passed should be within this silent county town, now just the same place but a different location.

The ghosts rushing in blocked the retreat of everyone wrapped within, including Yang Jian.

In this situation, merely relying on supernatural influences could make the nearby Ghost Domain disappear; the only way to survive was for the haunted bus to reignite and restart, and then the remaining people could escape onto the bus for refuge.

But now the bus had stalled, and to restart, they could only wait. How long to wait, no one could be sure, as it was a random duration.

However, the ghosts had already attacked.

The few ghost handlers who got off the bus dared not remain in place any longer, even facing the ball rolling on the ground, they had to take action.

“Get near the bus, it’s our only path to survival, only when the bus restarts can we live on, as for the rest, it’s up to luck.”

In such an emergency, no one had the time to hold grudges against Yang Jian anymore; if they didn’t want to die, they had to keep struggling, throw away all hatred, and try every possible means to survive.

“All actions, charge forward.”

The remaining four ghost handlers did not fall into discord, nor act for themselves, but rather united with tacit understanding.

Because everyone understood that by themselves, the probability of survival was nearly zero, perhaps if they acted together, a miracle might occur.

These four ghost handlers managed, before the surrounding ghosts could encircle them, to use every means to dodge the rolling ball on the way, daring immense peril and finally successfully arrived beside the haunted bus.

At this moment, the bus’s entry and exit doors opened, yet inside the carriage it was pitch black and nothing could be seen, only some eerie sounds vaguely heard from within.

“What do we do now? After the haunted bus stalled, not even ghosts can stay on the bus; if we board the bus now, we’re certainly doomed.” said a ghost handler’s voice tremblingly.

The man with a rotten face steeled himself and said, “Wait, we wait here until the very last moment, if the bus hasn’t restarted we must still get on, rather than facing so many ghosts, it’s better to take a gamble; maybe the supernatural within the bus can’t kill us, or perhaps once we board the bus we can struggle for a while, if luck’s on our side, it might hold until the bus starts.”

“Alright, let’s do it.”

“I have no objections either.”

These ghost handlers gritted their teeth and agreed to this crazy and suffocating plan.

After all, it was a gamble on their lives, they were just choosing the plan they thought held more hope.

At this moment.

The ball rolling under Yang Jian’s feet was rapidly deflating, shriveling up, and a terrifying supernatural force was impacting his surroundings, which meant he was now leaving the Ghost Domain and thoroughly entering this county town’s territory.

From this moment, he could be attacked by a group of fierce ghosts at any time, or even….. killed.

An eerie cold air rushed in, making one’s hair stand on end.

Yang Jian didn’t hesitate, the Ghost Flame ignited instantly, enveloping a circle around him, using the Ghost Domain of Ghost Flame to isolate himself from being targeted by fierce ghosts.

The Ghost Flame burned immensely, nearly swallowing him whole within the firelight, and the flame continued spreading outward, directly enveloping the front row of fierce ghosts.

The fire burned, trying to ignite the fierce ghosts.

The Ghost Flame indeed worked, the front fierce ghosts were ignited, their cold bodies became the fuel for the Ghost Flame and burned fiercely, while burning, the ghosts lost their action standing still unable to move.

But the next moment, more ghosts bypassed the burning Ghost Flame and approached again.

“The ignition speed of the Ghost Flame can’t keep up with the speed of fierce ghosts coming in; even if my supernatural attacks are intense, when divided up, they’ll seem insignificant.”

Yang Jian immediately understood, so he didn’t plan to use the Ghost Lake because these ghosts were enough to fill the lake in a short time, even the Ghost Lake wouldn’t delay for long.

Drawing a red spear, he grasped the spear with his icy Ghost Hand, and quietly made a wish: “Within five minutes, I will not be attacked by fierce ghosts.”

At this moment, he used the supernatural of the Wishing Ghost to delay time.

The supernatural of the Wishing Ghost took effect.

Blood seeped from the spear, dyeing Yang Jian’s hand red, then spreading to his arm.

Just one wish and the supernatural corrosion was so substantial; it could be imagined how difficult it was to fulfill this wish.

Fortunately, Yang Jian only wished for five minutes, not ten minutes, or even half an hour, otherwise, the cost would have been even greater than now.

“No need to bear this cost, straightaway restart to let this supernatural erosion disappear.” Yang Jian decisively restarted himself after the wish.

The dyed arm returned to normal as if nothing had happened.

The enveloping yellow paper fierce ghosts surged over, filled with danger and crisis, yet Yang Jian had not encountered an attack from fierce ghosts at this moment.

The wish made earlier had taken effect, for five minutes he avoided all attacks from fierce ghosts, staying protected.

“It really works, huh.”

Yang Jian pressed forward with the spear, moving through the fierce ghosts without a hint of trouble, even bumping into fierce ghosts, they had no reaction to him.

“Is that what’s happening?” Others by the bus were dumbstruck at this sight.

They thought Yang Jian and the ghosts would fight madly and eventually he’d hold out, die here, of course, they assumed Yang Jian would use some means to escape here, like restarting the haunted bus, or deploying a stronger Ghost Domain… but they had never considered Yang Jian would just say a word and the ghosts would indeed not attack him.

“This defies logic.” The man with a rotten face was puzzled, with his experience, he couldn’t understand how Yang Jian did it.

Could his words influence fierce ghosts?

Even if they could influence fierce ghosts, it couldn’t affect so many ghosts.

But now, they couldn’t afford to think any longer.

Because at this moment, the ghosts already surrounded the bus, unable to resist, they could only watch as the ghosts continuously approached.

Another eerie situation emerged.

A ghost handler suddenly clutched his throat, sensing a strong suffocation, then as seen by the naked eye, his body rapidly shriveled like the ball on the ground deflated in an instant, in the blink of an eye, he became a dry corpse crumpled on the ground.

Without any sign, he was killed by the supernatural.
