Si Ye and Yang Jian arrived at a deserted place.

"I agree with the contingency plan you mentioned earlier. Let's start, lest things drag on and complications arise."

Yang Jian stopped walking, turned around, and said this to Si Ye.Full novel: Mysterious Revival: Card Maker — read the rest free on N​o⁠v​e⁠l​C⁠o​d⁠e​x⁠.​o⁠r​g⁠

Upon hearing this, Si Ye took out Pickpocket, then said to Yang Jian, "Next, you must actively suppress the Fierce Ghost within your body, so that when I affect you, the ghost inside your body won't resist."

Speaking of which, Si Ye pondered for a moment, then continued, "Right, can you open one Ghost Eye? That way it will be easier for me to lock onto the target."

When Yang Jian heard this, he was confused, but recalling the ending mentioned on the Human Skin Paper, he did not refuse.

A scarlet Ghost Eye opened on the back of Yang Jian's hand, staring at Si Ye and constantly moving.

"Then, happy cooperation." Si Ye chuckled lightly and stuck Pickpocket onto the Ghost Eye.

Yang Jian watched the Card being stuck onto the Ghost Eye, confusion appearing in his eyes, accompanied by a slight unease in his heart.

The Ghost Eye did not resist the supernatural power on Si Ye's Card; this feeling was just like when his Ghost Eye was covered with Newspaper.

"A special supernatural power, preventing the Ghost Eye from instinctively resisting?"

Although the state of the Ghost Eye was different from what Si Ye had described, causing him confusion, he did not voice it.

Pickpocket stuck onto the Ghost Eye, and the Card quickly turned into a puff of Paper Ash and dissipated.

However, Yang Jian seemed to sense something unusual; he instinctively opened his hand, and a brand-new Card appeared in his grasp:

(Event Card)Invincible.

Below Invincible, there was also this line of text: Can forcibly interrupt the Fierce Ghost's next action.

Si Ye noticed Yang Jian's expression, looked at his open hand, and then explained.

"This is my Card, Invincible. Back at the Hospital, I used it to interrupt that Fourth Stage Ghost Infant's attack on you."

"This Card can interrupt any action, whether it's a movement, the release of a Ghost Domain, a Supernatural Attack, or even if the Starving Ghost uses the Card it possesses, it can be interrupted by Invincible."

Yang Jian was startled upon hearing Si Ye's explanation, "The function of this Card is a bit too powerful, isn't it?"

Seeing Yang Jian's expression, Si Ye roughly guessed what he was thinking: "Stop looking. There is only this one, and I can only hold one Invincible at a time."

"After using this Card, I might not be able to obtain it again for several days."

Yang Jian nodded slightly; it was normal for a Card with such a significant effect to have some limitations.

"Invincible only has one chance to be used, and it will disappear after use," Si Ye said solemnly.

"So you only have one chance, which is to use this Card to interrupt the Starving Ghost when it uses another Card or employs some incomprehensible ability."

"The method to use Invincible is very simple: just think about using this Card while holding it."

"I understand." Yang Jian's expression returned to calm. "I still need to prepare some things, so I'll be leaving now."

Si Ye watched Yang Jian disappear, returned to his own room, and took out a Card he had just obtained.

The Card depicted a scarlet eye, the eye flickering with Red Light.

(Equipment Card)I'll Just Take a Look: Spend one Card to borrow a Ghost Eye, allowing the activation of a Red Light Ghost Domain lasting ten minutes with a radius of one thousand meters.

"A very strong Card, perfectly compensating for my biggest weakness. With this, even if Yang Jian fails, I can attempt to escape Dachang City."

Si Ye returned to his room, no longer concerned about Yang Jian's subsequent situation, and instead contemplated his next plan.

"Step one: first, have the authorities help me create a special file, slightly modifying my name in the file."

Si Ye recalled the final outcome of Yang Jian in Mysterious Revival; he had modified his file, changing his name to Yang Jian.

Even though few people knew the name Yang Jian, in the Fierce Ghost's judgment, he was called Yang Jian, not Yang Jian.

Secondly, find a way to solve the Ghost Revival problem, which naturally means controlling a Second ghost to increase lifespan.

"When making Cards, what kind of Fierce Ghost can achieve balance?" Si Ye pondered.

The Card Maker ghost is very peculiar; Si Ye wasn't even sure if this ghost existed as consciousness or had a physical body.

Si Ye didn't even know the Killing Rule of the Card Maker.

"Then I can only start with the method of killing."

Si Ye took out the Cards; among the four basic Cards of the Card Maker, only Kill had offensive power.

"All the supernatural powers of the Card Maker must be used in the form of Cards. This might be a breakthrough point."

"For the Second ghost, I need to find a Fierce Ghost that can influence the Card Maker's Card creation, allowing the two ghosts to counteract each other."

"Or find a Fierce Ghost that complements the Card Maker, using that ghost to utilize the Card Maker's abilities and the influence the Card Maker has on my body."

There are generally two ways to control a Second ghost in Mysterious Revival.

The first method was developed by Wang Xiaoming: allowing the two ghosts to counteract each other until they reach a certain balance.

However, with this method of controlling two ghosts, the revival level of the two balanced Fierce Ghosts is reduced, and the improvement to the Ghost Controller's strength is not significant.

After all, to maintain the balance of the Fierce Ghosts, although the number of times supernatural powers can be used increases, the intensity of the supernatural powers is reduced.

In other words, this method reduces the Ghost Controller's upper limit but raises their lower limit.

The second method is the solution provided by the Human Skin Paper to Yang Jian.

Allowing one ghost to control part of the supernatural power of the other ghost, enabling the two ghosts to reach a balanced state.

However, finding two such ghosts is quite difficult.

The Headless Ghost Shadow inside Yang Jian's body can restrain the Ghost Eye; the Ghost Eye is a Puzzle Piece for the Headless Ghost Shadow, but the terror level of the Headless Ghost Shadow is not as high as the Ghost Eye.

Because of this, the Human Skin Paper provided this special solution.

Using the Headless Ghost Shadow to control part of the Ghost Eye's supernatural power, weakening the Ghost Eye's intensity and increasing the Headless Ghost Shadow's intensity.

Raising the terror level of the Headless Ghost Shadow to a degree that can balance the Ghost Eye.

This method suppresses the Ghost Eye's revival and reduces its intensity.

But it provides the Headless Ghost Shadow with several Ghost Eyes, increasing the Headless Ghost Shadow's terror level.

One rises and one falls; the two ghosts reach a balance without reducing the intensity of the supernatural powers Yang Jian can use.

The intensity weakened from the Ghost Eye has been perfectly transferred to the Headless Ghost Shadow.

"But what kind of Fierce Ghost can restrain the Card Maker?" Si Ye frowned again as he thought of this.

Among the Fierce Ghosts he knew, the only one that could restrain the Card Maker without being overly dangerous was the Ghost Fire.

The Ghost Fire could ignite supernatural powers, which was also a means of restraint for Si Ye.

However, obtaining this ghost was clearly hopeless.

As long as he dared to lay a hand on Wang Xiaoming's bodyguard, he would immediately be wanted nationwide.

After all, Wang Xiaoming was hailed as humanity's hope, and Old Qin thought the same.
