Dachang City.
In the alley filled with Black Mist.
"Chu Heng" stood stiffly in place, a eerie smile hanging on his lips, while emitting a chilling aura.
"Invasion successful!"
Su Mu Bai glanced around, then placed his hand on his left chest, quietly sensing for a moment before muttering to himself, "The process went very smoothly. The consciousness of an Ordinary Person is no match for a Fierce Ghost, and this body was not affected very much."
He could clearly feel the vitality of this body; the strong, powerful heartbeat coming from his chest was so reminiscent.
"This 'Invasion' ability is truly heaven-defying. Not only did it erase the consciousness of this body's original owner, but it also forcibly browsed and received the other person's memories before their consciousness disappeared!"
Su Mu Bai felt that a lot of unknown memories had been added to his mind; these did not belong to him, but to Chu Heng.
From Chu Heng's birth until the moment Su Mu Bai invaded today, every memory experienced in between was completely received by Su Mu Bai.
Chu Heng's memories surged into Su Mu Bai's mind like a tide; the experiences of his entire life manifested in Su Mu Bai's mind as if watching a movie.
If it were an Ordinary Person, suddenly receiving the life experiences and memories of another person, they would likely instantly become lost in the other's memories, perhaps even seriously doubting who they truly were.
But Su Mu Bai would not!
He was a ghost!
Supernatural Power can affect the consciousness of an Ordinary Person, but the memories of an Ordinary Person cannot affect a Fierce Ghost.
Because the only thing that can deal with ghosts is ghosts!
Chu Heng's memories spanning over twenty years seemed vast, yet they could not affect Su Mu Bai in the slightest. He was like someone reading a book, except the protagonist of the book was Chu Heng, and the content of the book was Chu Heng's entire life experience.
"So your name is Chu Heng, you are from Xiaochun City, you work in Dachang City, you married the person arranged by your family for a blind date two years ago, but you divorced at the end of last year..."
Suddenly, Su Mu Bai's mouth twitched. He discovered something speechless in Chu Heng's memories: the reason for Chu Heng's divorce was actually because his ex-wife gave birth to a daughter.
It wasn't that Chu Heng favored sons over daughters, divorcing his wife just because she gave birth to a daughter.
It was because late last year, Chu Heng got lucky after getting drunk and receiving a massage without protection, and upon going to the Hospital for treatment and examination, it was unexpectedly discovered that he suffered from congenital infertility!
Chu Heng, upon receiving the examination results, was stunned. Since he suffered from congenital infertility, whose daughter was the one his wife gave birth to?
Realizing the seriousness of the issue, Chu Heng did not immediately confront his wife but secretly took a strand of his daughter's hair to the Hospital to get a paternity test.
The result was as expected.
When Chu Heng saw the words "No blood relation between the two parties" written on the paternity test result from the Hospital, the last shred of his fantasy was shattered.
Thus, Chu Heng chose to divorce his wife.
Struck by multiple blows, Chu Heng ignored his family's dissuasion and left his hometown of Xiaochun City, coming to Dachang City alone to make a living.
………………
"He really was unlucky enough. Getting hit just from a massage, then being diagnosed with infertility, the daughter wasn't his, and he divorced his wife—you could say that was miserable enough."
"Then after coming to Dachang City to strive, his career here also ran into problems. After working overtime for several nights in a row, today he ran into me..."
After browsing through Chu Heng's memories, even though Su Mu Bai had been a 'person' for two lifetimes, he couldn't help but sigh that the other party was truly tragic.
"Although you were very unlucky, it has nothing to do with me. Since the invasion was successful, it's time to leave." Su Mu Bai muttered to himself.
As soon as his voice fell, the Black Mist enveloping the entire alley began to retract, and the dark environment in the alley returned to brightness.
Previously, Su Mu Bai used his Ghost Domain to isolate this alley from the outside world. The Ghost Domain formed its own space, existing between the illusory and the real.
To the outside world, this alley still appeared as that alley, no different from usual, which is why pedestrians passing by earlier did not notice anything unusual about this alley.
But in reality, if they walked into the alley, they would discover the scene of Black Fog surrounding them and Ghost Aura permeating the area.
This is a form of application for the Ghost Domain.
In fact, if Su Mu Bai's Ghost Domain were a bit stronger, he could completely isolate the Ghost Domain from Reality.
The Black Fog churned and was completely absorbed into Su Mu Bai's body. During this process, his brow furrowed slightly.
"The Supernatural Power is continuously eroding this body. At the current rate, this body will be completely eroded in a month."
Su Mu Bai rolled up his sleeve and found that on the arm of this body, a section of skin had turned pitch black, as if ink had dripped onto his arm.
"This situation is irreversible. In a month, I will either have to abandon this body and invade someone else, or I will have to continue operating as a Fierce Ghost."
"But none of that matters right now. The most urgent thing is to go to that place first and see if there is a way to obtain that item..."
Su Mu Bai did not dwell too much on the state of the body, as this was within his expectations, and he had more important things to do now.
Tap tap tap tap!
After retracting the Black Mist Ghost Domain, Su Mu Bai walked towards the outside of the alley. He needed to go somewhere, but he didn't know the way, so he decided to take a taxi.
"Beep beep beep~~~"
As soon as he walked out of the alley, a taxi drove towards him. Su Mu Bai saw the green characters "Vacant" on top of the taxi, so he waved his hand at it.
"Screeech..."
Accompanied by the sound of brakes, Su Mu Bai opened the rear door of the taxi and sat inside.
"Young man, where are you going?" The taxi driver in the driver's seat asked after Su Mu Bai got in.
"Hongfa Temple!"
Su Mu Bai glanced at the taxi driver and uttered three words in a somewhat cold tone. His voice was very low and hoarse, giving off a very strange feeling.
"Oh, alright!" The taxi driver responded, stepped on the accelerator, and drove the taxi towards Hongfa Temple.
"Going to Hongfa Temple to offer incense this early in the morning? It seems the temple isn't even open yet?" the driver muttered to himself inwardly.
But the driver did not ask, because the feeling Su Mu Bai gave him was very strange, though he couldn't quite articulate what was strange about it.
The taxi moved towards its destination under the driver's control, and the car was very quiet. During the journey, neither Su Mu Bai nor the driver spoke.
The driver could tell that Su Mu Bai did not wish to converse much, seemingly a rather aloof person.
Time passes second by second...
After driving on the road for about ten minutes, the taxi brought Su Mu Bai to a temple that wasn't very large.
Ps: Asking for recommendation tickets, collection, investment, comments, and rewards...!
