Chapter 1179 - 1145: The Correct Location

The scene just unfolded in front of the three people, without a doubt, it wasn’t an illusion.

At the moment the lights flickered, the room layout of Caesar Hotel did change, not a modern style but one from the Republic of China Period, eerie and old.

“Opening the door momentarily disrupted reality, thus the true scene was revealed, meaning there’s a strong possibility we’re no longer in Caesar Hotel but have entered one of the rooms in that corridor,” Yang Jian’s expression grew increasingly serious.

“The supernatural in that room swallowed the original Caesar Hotel, incorporating the entire hotel into that room, only this can explain why the previous Gold door is gone.”

“In other words, my earlier judgment was correct, it wasn’t the door that disappeared, it was us,” Li Yang’s expression also grew heavy: “Without realizing it, we’ve already entered a room, and this means there’s a ghost in Caesar Hotel now.”

“No, maybe not just one, our being drawn in means others can be drawn in too, even other ghosts might be drawn in,” Yang Jian stated.

Tong Qian immediately understood; “Maybe that’s why the ghosts couldn’t leave the Caesar Hotel boundary, a room’s supernatural blocked the exit, bringing back the ghosts that once roamed within the original Caesar Hotel, appearing promptly every day at ten and disappearing after four.”

“This repetition keeps the outside city unaffected by the supernatural.”

Li Yang frowned and said; “If this is true, I don’t believe it’s all a coincidence; utilizing a lone uncontrolled supernatural room to confine other uncontrolled rooms, such a perfect design isn’t something an average person can conceive.”

If this speculation is correct, then the riskiest now is us,” Yang Jian gripped his cracked spear, inexplicably tense.

“Why? I’ve been here for several days without issue, as long as we wait until four o’clock, we’ll return to the original Caesar Hotel and can leave,” Tong Qian said.

Yang Jian, calmly: “Spending time until four in one spot is desirable, but Caesar Hotel is already beyond just an uncontrolled supernatural room; all uncontrolled supernatural rooms have stayed within the hotel, those noises you heard before, footsteps, even talking weren’t left by people from before.”

“They’re real ghosts on the move.”

“Ghosts left the corridor room, now trapped within Caesar Hotel, unable to leave or return, just roaming the hotel, and how many have accumulated in this time is truly a mystery, but I think the number that ran from the corridor must be quite astounding.”

Yang Jian, as he spoke, glanced at the eerie passage they came from.

That passage remained tranquil, perhaps this peace was due to the ghosts having left the room.

“Captain, what should we do now? Should we notify authorities then leave, or handle the anomalies here as best as possible?” Li Yang asked.

Yang Jian said: “All this is my deduction and assumption; if correct, there’s no need for us to meddle, we can devise a way to stay until four tomorrow morning then leave; if wrong, we must find a way to continue sealing Caesar Hotel, preventing the supernatural from spreading…”

But just as they were speaking.

Suddenly.

Caesar Hotel, quiet beyond belief, suddenly echoed with music.

The three immediately fell silent, alert to the direction of the sound.

“It’s from the second-floor restaurant location, that’s piano music, is someone playing the piano?” Li Yang asked.

But Yang Jian immediately reacted: “That’s not piano music, it’s a musical curse similar to the Eight-Tone Music Box’s curse, once the piano is played, everyone who hears this music will die; it’s a Fatal Curse.”

“We must disrupt the sound, follow me.”

He finished speaking and swiftly got moving, his ghost eye opened, directly unleashing the Ghost Domain.

In this new Caesar Hotel, Yang Jian’s Ghost Domain surprisingly met no disturbance, which was very peculiar.

Instantly.

Yang Jian brought Li Yang and Tong Qian to the second-floor restaurant location.

In a corner of the restaurant, a piano sat, this piano was a hotel musical instrument, usually playing music for dining guests, adding atmosphere.

But at this moment.

The piano was unmanned, with no ghost traces, everything in the restaurant appeared normal with no imagined danger.

Yet the eerie music was indeed wafting from the piano.

“How can this be?”

All three stared at the piano, puzzled.

“The piano is dormant, but the music persists, this isn’t normal.” Li Yang approached, extending his withered, cold hand to touch the piano.

In the next moment.

The entire piano suddenly twisted and exploded with a bang, scattering wood everywhere, utterly destroyed.

Though the piano had shattered, the strange music originating from the piano’s location didn’t cease, continuing on, with the dreadful curse still releasing.

Yang Jian’s eyes flickered; he said sternly: “Li Yang, remember you mentioned before, perhaps Caesar Hotel’s timeline had shifted; but from when you opened that door, time should be unaltered, but the location has shifted, same time, same place, different positions, achieving this I can also manage.”

“That’s Ghost Domain stacking, placing different supernatural occurrences in different Ghost Domains to form same location, different positions.”

“Earlier you could use Ghost Domain unhindered,” Tong Qian noted.

Yang Jian said: “Some supernatural occurrences are well-hidden, not easily found; prepare yourselves, I’ll try to lead you into that truly terrifying room.”

He gestured briefly, then wasted no time, ghost eye opened, Ghost Domain unleashed again.

This time, he directly utilized four layers of Ghost Domain.

Four layers of Ghost Domain almost matched the Ghost Envoy’s domain from before, almost able to observe most ghosts.

But the result now was ineffectual.

Caesar Hotel still showed no alteration, and the eerie music ignored Ghost Domain’s effects, channeling straight into their minds.

Once this fatal music stops, all three are doomed to endure the Fatal Curse.

Last time, Yang Jian fought against it using the Eight-Tone Music Box’s curse; now, despite possessing the Eight-Tone Music Box’s curse, he isn’t shielded by it, unsure if he can resist this curse; even if he can withstand it, Li Yang and Tong Qian would undeniably perish.

“Is the four-layer Ghost Domain not enough? Then let’s just do the six-layer Ghost Domain directly.”

He acted decisively, not increasing the Ghost Domain layer by layer, but directly jumped to the six-layer Ghost Domain.

Help us continue by reading at the source: *.

This layer of the Ghost Domain can pause all supernatural activities around, even stopping the actions of fierce ghosts.

The scarlet light swallowed everything around, Yang Jian’s six-layer Ghost Domain was released, but it only enveloped this restaurant.

The small range of the Ghost Domain ensures that Yang Jian’s ghost eyes are not too burdened.

But then.

A bizarre scene occurred. After the six-layer Ghost Domain paused all the supernatural activities, Yang Jian’s ghost eyes saw that the restaurant was rapidly aging. The walls were peeling, the tiles cracking, the chairs molding… and the lights disappeared at that moment.

The bright and clean restaurant changed.

It turned into a gloomy and eerie supernatural place.

Yet here, there was an old, dusty piano placed.

It seemed that someone was sitting in front of the piano, playing a strange piece of music. That person was not fully revealed yet, as the changes around were still continuing. Yang Jian could only wait within the six-layer Ghost Domain for it all to end.

“The six-layer Ghost Domain paused everything around, yet it could invade here? It seems that this is not just a simple Ghost Domain, but time is also chaotic.” Yang Jian thought with a tinge of alarm.

His mind was clear and unaffected, but his body still couldn’t move.

The changes around were accelerating, they were leaving the original Caesar Hotel, entering such a bizarre place.

Perhaps this was the room that sealed off everything, the sound of the piano carrying the Fatal Curse seemed to be just one of the supernatural phenomena trapped here.

However, just as the invasion was more than halfway through.

The person sitting in front of the piano finally revealed themselves.

It was a human… no, a dried-up corpse, dressed in old-fashioned women’s clothing, with dark brown shriveled skin tightly adhered to the bones. The corpse also wore some jewelry as decoration, but the jewelry was dull and dusty, as if it had been sealed for years.

“A mummy?” Yang Jian’s ghost eyes shifted, staring at the dried corpse.

But suddenly.

The mummy playing the piano abruptly turned its head, looking at Yang Jian’s location.

The head on the mummy’s neck was not dried, but rather a fresh, living human head, resembling a woman, and very beautiful. Yet her eyes were empty, lifeless, devoid of human emotions.

“Xiang Lan?”

Seeing the head on the mummy’s neck, Yang Jian’s eyes narrowed slightly, revealing traces of shock.

No mistake.

The mummy was Xiang Lan.

No, only the head was Xiang Lan’s, the body was not.

Could it be that the Xiang Lan he saw before also died, and her head was taken by a fierce ghost?

At this moment, Yang Jian’s heart was filled with confusion and puzzlement.

But the danger had just begun.

The mummy with Xiang Lan’s head slowly stood up now, removing its hands from the piano, yet the music from the piano did not cease, as if the curse had already been unleashed, and the piano no longer needed to be played.

The mummy directly approached Yang Jian.

It wasn’t affected by Yang Jian’s Ghost Domain, but Yang Jian couldn’t move, while the fierce ghost could.

A chilling aura surged, making one’s hair stand on end.

Li Yang moved his eyes and looked towards Yang Jian, seemingly urging him to lift the Ghost Domain’s constraint.

But Yang Jian remained unmoved.

The six-layer Ghost Domain was still maintained.

Because he knew he was the intruder, while the other side was the fierce ghost residing here, they were in different positions.

The intrusion was still continuing; if he closed the six-layer Ghost Domain now, he wouldn’t be able to approach the piano.

At this moment, the fierce ghost was the best coordinate to bring him into the exact position.

“Come attack me, just need to touch me, and I can immediately shut down the six-layer Ghost Domain and completely get to where you are.” Yang Jian stared intently at the fierce ghost.

He wasn’t worried about being killed instantly because he had confidence he could withstand the attack of this fierce ghost.

The eerie mummy with Xiang Lan’s head had already arrived in front of Yang Jian. It twisted its neck slightly, glancing at Tong Qian and Li Yang beside him.

It seemed to be making a choice among the three of them.

The fierce ghost was right in front of them.

The three remained motionless.

Because Yang Jian was ahead, the fierce ghost ultimately chose Yang Jian at the forefront.

That gaunt arm slowly lifted, then reached out to his arm.

Suddenly.

The fierce ghost grabbed Yang Jian’s wrist, and then his arm shrunk visibly at a rapid pace, while the fierce ghost’s arm was plumping up, becoming full of flesh and blood, restoring to a lively appearance.
