Chapter 1565: Chapter 1528: Awakening
Half a year.
A full six months.
Living in the Ghost Dream World, Yang Jian finally awaited this day. At one point, he even suspected that the plan to harness Ghost Blood had failed, and he could only exist as consciousness in the ghost dream world, with no way to awaken, as six months is indeed a long time for a ghost master.
Fortunately, this long wait finally brought hope.
âIf everything goes well, I should be able to wake up in no more than three days,â Yang Jian estimated in his heart.
Because once the stalemate is broken, the balance will avalanche dramatically to one side.
In such a case, Yang Jian would have two outcomes: either die from the revival of the ghost, or harness Ghost Blood to combat the supernatural force of the bus, thereby forming a new supernatural balance.
As for the former, Yang Jian wouldnât be calmly staying in the ghost dream until now. Only with the latter would he feel the impending awakening.
Thus, as soon as this feeling appeared, Yang Jian understood that he had won this last gamble.
Though, half a year is excessively long.
Yang Jian, through Zhang Wei and Jiang Yan, grasped the situation outside, knowing the supernatural circle is vastly different from before. Headquarters is on the brink of collapse, barely hanging on, with the remaining captains either dead or missing, now only three captains remain visibly.
He Yiner, Li Leping, He Yuelian.
Other candidate captains didnât grow to the Captain Level and have already withdrawn from the scene.
Due to the rapid revival rate of the supernatural, candidates had no space or opportunity to grow, even Li Yang, who harnessed three ghosts, relinquished his position as Dachang Cityâs in-charge, choosing to retire; as for the current situation, no one knows.
Thankfully, thereâs still Tong Qian.
Otherwise, Yang Jian wouldnât even have anyone to hold the fort under him.
âUnder this circumstance, even if I do awaken, what can I do?â Over half a year, Yang Jian pondered many issues, including this one.
He, alone, cannot contend against this era where ghosts rampage, and the new generation of ghost masters have yet to grow. Even the few outstanding newcomers are just a drop in the ocean, unable to play any significant role.
Yang Jian had thought of joining some top ghost masters to accomplish something, but even if he gathered all the remaining top ghost masters of this era, the situation wouldnât be reversed.
Thereâs also a period where Yang Jian seriously considered Zhang Xiangguangâs Peach Blossom Fountain plan.
If things continue to worsen, Zhang Xiangguangâs Peach Blossom Fountain plan seems quite appealing, at least ensuring a few decades or even a hundred years of peace before the ghost painting loses control.
Yang Jian thought a lot but always came up empty-handed.
âLetâs talk about everything once I wake up.â Eventually, he shook his head, ridding his mind of these chaotic thoughts.
Soon.
A day passed.
The second day, thereâs a change again in the Blood Pool.
The original scarlet Blood Pool looked like it faded; the water isnât as sticky and red as it was before, seeming much lighter.
This phenomenon instantly caught He Yuelianâs attention.
âIs he about to awaken?â After guarding near the Blood Pool for long, this change appeared for the first time, and she quickly realized something.
On the third day.
The Blood Pool became even lighter, clearly sensing the supernatural power of Ghost Blood rapidly dissipating.
Judging by this dissipation rate, by evening, this blood pool would turn into a water pool, with all ghost blood vanished completely.
Seeing this, He Yuelian instead felt a bit expectant.
She hoped Yang Jian could awaken, otherwise sheâd have to remain here.
By the third-day evening.
The ghost blood in the Blood Pool completely disappeared, leaving only Yang Jianâs corpse floating on the water surface. Yet, the supernatural power within this corpse was terrifying, as even after long, the body showed no change, not even a hint of swelling after six months submerged.
Ten more minutes passed, and the corpse stirred, seeming to come back to life.
âNo sign of ghost revival, Yang Jian indeed succeeded, truly incredible, he survived it,â He Yuelian watched this scene, and she murmured in her heart.
The next moment.
The corpse in the water suddenly opened its eyes.
Yang Jian, silent for half a year, finally awoke, much like when he first entered the Blood Pool â his awakening was quiet, unnoticed by anyone.
âReviving again is really not easy.â Yang Jianâs voice emerged, he rose up, and slowly walked out of the Blood Pool onto the ground.
The long sleep made his consciousness slightly unadapted upon returning, he moved a bit, rapidly familiarizing himself with this feeling, checking his condition meanwhile.
No doubt, he mastered Ghost Blood.
The previously revived supernatural bus also fell back into slumber. Whether this indicates itâs stalled or formed a new balance with Ghost Blood is unclear; at least for a while, Yang Jian neednât worry about the ghost revival issue.
As for whether similar situations might arise in the future, Yang Jian cannot foresee.
For now, Yang Jianâs state is surprisingly good.
âNot bad, half-year of ordeal didnât disappoint me. After harnessing Ghost Blood, my supernatural power reached another peak again; I probably can wrestle with those old monsters from the Republic of China era now,â Yang Jianâs eyes gleamed.
Ghost Blood flowing in his veins not only puts the busâs supernatural to sleep, but it also means he can recklessly wield other supernatural powers.
Previously, the Ghost Domain of the Ghost Eye could only reach the eighth layer; now Yang Jian feels no issue in unlocking the ninth layer.
âYang Jian, congratulations on returning.â He Yuelian now appeared beside him and spoke.
âThereâs no need for false words, compared to others, youâd rather I didnât wake up,â Yang Jian said calmly.
He Yuelian explained, âPerhaps I had such thoughts before, but not anymore. This era needs you, many hope for you to come out and lead; Wang Guoqiang had sought me many times, wanting me to replace you in leading headquarters and stabilizing the situation, but I knew I wasnât qualified enough, so I refused.â
âYouâre a smart woman, naturally unwilling to clean up this mess,â Yang Jian said, âYet with the situation falling apart like this, albeit I might change little, some things must be done.â
As he spoke, he started walking forward, but after a few steps.
Suddenly.
A red spear flew straight towards Yang Jian at an incredible speed.
Yang Jianâs Ghost Eye suddenly opened, raising the Ghost Hand to grab.
The incoming red spear was seized tightly by him, ceasing struggle and any movement subsequently.
Without needing wishes, relying on his supernatural, Yang Jian could easily control this supernatural weapon.
Retrieving the spear, Yang Jian raised his head slightly towards Dachang City: âBut before doing anything, I must first understand the current situation. He Yuelian, return to Daâao City; Iâll find you when needed.â
âAlright.â He Yuelian responded, slightly relieved.
Looks like a period of rest is ahead for her.
As He Yuelian prepared to leave, Yang Jian added: âRemember, if you encounter Zhang Xiangguang, tell him I have matters to discuss, have him come to Dachang City.â
âI havenât seen Zhang Xiangguang for the past half year.â He Yuelian replied.
âYou havenât seen him doesnât mean heâs not watching you,â Yang Jian said.
He Yuelian responded, âAlright, if he contacts me, Iâll convey your message.â
Having said that, she left.
Yang Jian didnât linger either, heading toward Dachang City, hoping the situation hasnât worsened too badly during his half-year absence.
