Mysterious Resurrection: Starting with Controlling Sadako

Chapter 4 Are you kidding?

The intense stimulation of the vengeful spirit's power in a short period of time made Zhou Zheng's face even more ashen, and his eyes became somewhat unfocused, making it difficult for him to concentrate.

"No, let's buy those students some time to escape. I'm about to die. When I'm about to die, you run away, and I'll hold them off alone."

Brother, what are you going to use to hold this up?!
Wang Liang's face darkened. Interrupting the knocking pattern and avoiding being randomly chosen by the inevitable death pattern was the right decision.

But this is at best a delay, not a solution.

The situation is still very bad. How long can they continue to suppress the door-knocking ghost like this?
If he were to abandon Zhou Zheng and run, given Zhou Zheng's current condition and his ability to suppress the enemy alone, he might not even last two seconds. How could he possibly escape?
Wang Liang had just experienced it. He could only use Sadako's supernatural powers for the time being, through these gray lines that only he could see, to release a curse-like attack, turning his phantom into Sadako, and then letting it invade reality to launch an attack.

But perhaps because the ghost puzzle is incomplete, he currently has no ghost realm!
Without a ghost domain, how could he have escaped from the fifth floor of the teaching building in just two seconds, creating a ghost domain as large as the entire campus that the knocking ghost had opened? He wouldn't even have had time to jump off the building and run away.
Just as Wang Liang was feeling overwhelmed, his and Zhou Zheng's expressions changed simultaneously.

Suddenly, an extremely cold aura emanated from the knocking ghost that was being pinned to the ground.

The next second, the bluish-black monster hand pressed against the old man's chest and Sadako's two pale arms simultaneously began to show patches of lividity of varying sizes.

Moreover, several livid mortises even appeared on Zhou Zheng and Wang Liang at a distance, causing their skin and flesh near the livid mortises to ulcerate to some extent.

"What a joke."

Wang Liang looked at the lividity on his arm with a grim expression and quickly took several steps back.

The ghostly entity of Sadako within him also emitted a chilling aura at this moment, fighting against the lividity on his arm and slowing down its spread.

Even if he succeeds in fighting back, the rotting skin and flesh are beyond repair, and he doesn't have any liars that can directly restore his body.

Zhou Zheng's situation is even worse; he is on the verge of a vengeful ghost resurrecting, continuously releasing supernatural phenomena, and is also being corroded by lividity.

Zhou Zheng's eyes had almost lost their luster, and he looked like he might die at any moment.

With the appearance of the corpse spots, the suppressed knocking ghost began to stiffly get up again, slowly pushing off the suppression of the three fierce ghost arms on its body, and the direction of the supernatural confrontation changed again.

The predecessor of the Knocking Ghost was Luo Wensong, one of the Seven Elders of the Republic of China. Even though Luo Wensong dismembered many supernatural beings before his death, the remaining supernatural beings were still powerful and could not be easily defeated by contemporary ghost tamers.

The "knocking ghost" is not just associated with the single rule that knocking on a door means certain death; it also possesses other supernatural elements and curses, such as lividity.

These supernatural phenomena coexist in one entity. After becoming the puzzle piece of the "knocking ghost" supernatural phenomenon, the overall quantity of supernatural phenomena increases, and each supernatural phenomenon also becomes stronger. It is not as simple as 1+1=2, but rather it becomes stronger.

The knocking ghost had only managed to withstand the suppression from Zhou Zheng and Wang Liang by virtue of its own supernatural size.

But now that it has actively released the corpse spot supernatural power, Zhou Zheng, who is on the verge of the resurrection of the vengeful ghost, and Wang Liang, who is currently only controlling a dead ghost, can no longer fight against it.

In the original story, when Yang Jian fought the door-knocking ghost, he controlled the ghost eye, the ghost shadow, and the ghost hand, and was accompanied by a ghost child and a machete. The ghost child was also carrying a dead man's head that could kill anyone with a glare.

Thus, in the head-on collision, Yang Jian was also at a disadvantage, and the first wave of collision failed.

In the second wave, the Ghost Domain was used to suppress the knocking ghost, causing it to fall into a trap set with golden chests. The ghost was then imprisoned by using a clever trick with the help of the Ghost Cleaver.

For Wang Liang at this stage, the fact that they have managed to hold on this far is already the limit.

Especially since he hadn't fully mastered Sadako's supernatural abilities and was putting them into practice immediately after acquiring them.

"Go!" Zhou Zheng roared as if he had a sudden burst of energy before death. Despite the two-meter-long bluish-black monster hand extending from his belly, he still managed to take a few steps forward, hoping to use this to further suppress the knocking ghost.

But the knocking ghost had now fully regained its mobility and immediately reached out and grabbed the bluish-black monster hand that was pressed against its chest.

The dark blue-black hand went limp the moment it was grabbed by the knocking ghost, like a boneless strip of meat.

Zhou Zheng, who had just charged forward, instantly turned ashen-faced and collapsed to his knees.

Dude, did this even last a second?!
After Zhou Zheng collapsed, the derivative Sadako, whose hands were gripping the face and shoulders of the knocking ghost, was also eroded to the limit by the corpse spots.

The two arms of the derivative Sadako were shattered into ashes by a cold, eerie force. Immediately afterwards, the derivative Sadako, who had been summoned by Wang Liang, also turned into ashes and disappeared completely.

The ghost cannot be killed. The real Sadako is still inside Wang Liang's body. The one outside is just a supernatural product formed by him activating Sadako's supernatural powers and releasing a curse. It is merely a derivative of Sadako.

Sadako, influenced by Wang Liang's supernatural power, is stronger than ordinary ghost servants and can even directly fight against some weaker vengeful spirits. However, she is not a true vengeful spirit herself, and will disappear after failing in the supernatural battle.

Wang Liang's figure was no longer visible on the glass of the corridor where Sadako had crawled out.

This piece of glass can no longer be cursed for a short time; the remaining supernatural influence on it must dissipate first.

However, this is not a big problem. After all, there are many pieces of glass around that can reflect Wang Liang's image. Even just shining a phone screen on it can be cursed by him and summon Sadako.

But the real problem now is that this confrontation has become difficult to continue.

The knocking ghost at this stage is beyond Wang Liang's current capabilities, especially with Zhou Zheng out of commission.

The situation deteriorated too quickly after the appearance of lividity. Zhou Zheng wanted to buy Wang Liang time to escape and held the line alone, but before Wang Liang could let go, he was forced to his knees.

It was actually worse than expected; it probably wouldn't even last a second.

The knocking ghost blocked the door, and the corpse spots spread unchecked, making the surrounding air feel icy cold.

Wang Liang, his face grim, quickly retreated into the classroom.

He had intended to stand up and fight for a way out, but the confrontation with the door-knocking ghost turned out to be more difficult than he had imagined. Now it seems he has sacrificed himself for others.
The lights in the corridors and classrooms hissed and then went out instantly.

An intense darkness emanated from the old man on the ground, enveloping the entire No. 7 Middle School once again. Even through the windows, not a single ray of light could be seen in the distant city.

The Ghost Realm has opened again.

Meanwhile, Wang Liang's students had only managed to escape to the second or third floor, and were also shrouded in the ghostly aura.

A flash of black light appeared on the old man in black sitting on the ground, and in the next instant, he stood up straight again, his eyes lifeless, just like when they first met, standing in the classroom, as if the confrontation just now had never happened.

Wang Liang stumbled backward onto the podium, cold sweat dripping from his forehead.

The ghost knocking at the door stared at him with its gray eyes devoid of any emotion, the shadow of death and darkness almost engulfing him.
