As Xia Xia raised both hands, a Supernatural Power even stronger than before locked onto Wan Hao!
Wan Hao also sensed that the restraint binding him this time was incomparably stronger than before. Without the slightest hesitation, he immediately utilized the Spiritual Power of Ghost Hand!
The two Supernatural Powers clashed again, and the feeling of restraint vanished once more!
The Spiritual Power of Ghost Hand surpassed Ghost Armor!
However, using the abilities of a Malevolent Ghost comes with a burden; it is not without cost, especially since the Supernatural Power used this time far exceeded previous instances!
Ghost Hand became restless and agitated due to the stimulation, which also brought immense pain to Wan Hao. A violent tearing sensation spread from Ghost Hand throughout his entire body, causing excruciating pain in his internal organs.
His entire body felt as if it were being ripped apart from the inside out!
Wan Hao immediately knelt on the Ground. The erosion from Ghost Hand intensified; the blackened and bruised area on his forearm had already reached his elbow. His entire forearm was ice-cold, and a bone-chilling cold enveloped his whole body.
"Damn it! I've used too much Supernatural Power today! Next time, I must Apprehend it!"
Wan Hao, kneeling on the Ground, endured the intense pain in his body and immediately rolled a few times to the side. This was no time for hesitation; one slight mistake and his body could be sliced open, making it difficult even for the medical examiner to piece together a complete body afterward.
Just then, Xia Xia swept her hands down, tearing apart the original Ground and leaving deep ravines.
Wan Hao forced himself to stand up while holding onto the last bit of breath and ran toward Xia Xia. That's right—there was always a few seconds of pause after a Supernatural Attack; this time was Wan Hao's chance!
If he missed it, he would lose the initiative. Wan Hao felt he might not survive the next attack!
Unfortunately, Wan Hao's body was ultimately still within the scope of a human's. Under the severe pain, his body struggled to move. Even with a powerful will to survive and willpower bolstering him, he couldn't move as flexibly as before.
Just as he reached Xia Xia, before he could make any move, Xia Xia's hands showed signs of lifting up once again!
He inwardly cursed that things were bad, and simultaneously, he opened the Corpse Bag in his hand, directly stuffing Xia Xia's hands inside!
He quickly pulled the ropes on both sides of the Corpse Bag!
The opening of the Corpse Bag tightened!
Before Wan Hao could breathe a sigh of relief, Xia Xia's arms continued to lift!
The deceased Xia Xia possessed astonishing Strength; even with half of Wan Hao's body pressed against her hands, he was still lifted up!
A faint sense of restraint enveloped Wan Hao once again!
"This won't work. With the clothing blocking it, the bag isn't sealed, and the Supernatural Power is still leaking out!"
Feeling the faint restraint enveloping him, Wan Hao this time didn't need to use much Supernatural Power to regain movement.
Should he chop off his hands?
But there were no tools nearby!
"Do I have no choice but to use Ghost Hand's Suppression to Apprehend it?"
Xia Xia's hands were raised above her head, then swung down violently!
Wan Hao was thrown down, and the Corpse Bag he was firmly gripping was thrown down with her. The deceased Xia Xia's Strength was too great!
Wan Hao stared intently at Ghost Armor. Those Scarlet, Eerie fingernails were the Source. Xia Xia was merely a possessed corpse; to Apprehend it, he had to target Ghost Armor!
"If I Touch Xia Xia, I might not be able to suppress Ghost Armor. This might waste another chance to use the Malevolent Ghost's power."
"And right now, using any more Supernatural Power than this will make me unable to bear it. By then, even if I don't suffer Ghost Revival, Ghost Hand's agitation will cause me to lose mobility, and I'll just have to wait to die."
Wan Hao endured the severe pain and struggled to his feet again. He had no choice; Xia Xia was already making a move to raise her hands again!
In an instant, Wan Hao couldn't possibly fit all of Xia Xia into the Corpse Bag. He could only suppress Ghost Armor first, forcing it into a period of Silence, which would then allow for the possibility of Apprehension!
Taking a large stride forward, Wan Hao grabbed Xia Xia's half-raised hands with both of his!
Ghost Armor pierced into Ghost Hand, but at the same time, Ghost Hand also Touched Ghost Armor!
The collision of the two Supernatural Powers began!
And this collision only lasted for less than a second!
Xia Xia collapsed!
With just a brief Touch, Ghost Armor was immediately suppressed into Silence, and Xia Xia lost control, falling straight to the Ground.
Wan Hao also collapsed to the Ground. Every time Supernatural Power was used, there was a price!
He didn't even dare to take a deep breath now, because the pain from Ghost Hand's agitation was spread throughout his entire body!
Even slightly deeper breathing would cause more intense pain in his lungs.
Ghost Hand's erosion of Wan Hao deepened; more of his hands were now dead!
It had already reached his biceps. If he used the Supernatural Power one more time, this erosion would cover his entire arm!
At that point, Wan Hao's life would belong to Ghost Hand.
"Damn it... Suppressing Ghost Armor requires too much Supernatural Power. Right now, I have completely lost the ability to move and can't free up a hand to Apprehend Ghost Armor."
There was no one around to help Wan Hao at this moment. It would take him several hours to recover his mobility, but would the Malevolent Ghost give Wan Hao that much time?
Obviously not. Wan Hao dared to bet that Ghost Hand could suppress Ghost Armor, but he didn't know how long that suppression would last, and it definitely wouldn't exceed ten minutes!
Although Ghost Hand's few achievements so far were all victories, the Malevolent Ghosts it suppressed all regained mobility within a few minutes. Only Captain Wang eventually couldn't bear the Ghost Revival and died.
But it was Captain Wang who died, not the ghost.
Ghosts cannot be killed.
Wan Hao rolled his eyes to look at his hands. At this moment, his hands were still tightly gripping the ten Ghost Armors. Although he wasn't using Supernatural Power now, once Ghost Armor revived, even if he didn't use Supernatural Power, Ghost Hand would be stimulated and revive autonomously.
The result would be Wan Hao passively using the Malevolent Ghost's power and dying.
Using Supernatural Power would lead to death via Malevolent Ghost Revival, but not using it meant being killed by the Ghost Armor that had regained its mobility.
And Wan Hao couldn't move at all right now; only his eyes could move, and he couldn't even speak!
A dead end!
This was already a dead end, unless an outsider intervened right now to Apprehend the suppressed Ghost Armor!
But he had driven Wei Ying out, and he had ordered those Criminal Police not to enter. He hadn't wanted to increase casualties, but now he had cornered himself into a situation where he could only wait to die.
Wan Hao's heart sank to the bottom.
"Is this the end?"
At that moment, Wan Hao remembered something. There was a box in his Backpack, obtained from the Ghost Post Office. At that time, the person said the ashes inside could suppress Malevolent Ghosts.
"I should have used that thing earlier. Whether on myself or on Ghost Armor, it should have some effect... Too bad I can't move now."
Wan Hao, forced to wait to die on the spot, did not feel excessive grief due to the influence of the Malevolent Ghost; instead, he reviewed the entire process.
However...
As time passed, Xia Xia's body trembled slightly.
