God-level repair system

The innkeeper and waiters in the inn were all hallucinations. Chu Zhen originally didn't want to pay attention to them, but then he discovered that the dozen or so big men who ran out were actually skeletons.

Is this more than just a hallucination?

Chu Zhen kicked a skeleton monster away, scattering broken bones all over the ground.

Upon seeing this, the remaining skeleton monsters immediately took action.

However, these were merely the lowest-level skeleton monsters, their combat power even weaker than that of low-level wild beasts. In the blink of an eye, Chu Zhen had dealt with them all.

By this time, the shopkeeper and the waiter had vanished without a trace.

The entire ancient town's bluestone floor suddenly trembled slightly.

"What happened?" Meow Meow's expression changed.

"It must have triggered something, right?"

This place is indeed an ancient ruin of the Ghost Clan, and the existence of the ancient town was probably a cover for the Ghost Clan to conceal their activities.

After system detection, a large hidden formation was discovered in the town; it was an illusion formation.

Once an outsider enters, the illusion array will be activated immediately, causing hallucinations to appear before their eyes.

The previous shopkeeper and waiter were both conjured by the formation.

However, in a sense, the illusion array does not have the ability to attack proactively; it needs to be triggered by the people inside the array.

The inn scene we just witnessed should be one of the trigger points.

Of course, even if you manage to get through the first storyline safely, the second one will immediately follow.

Either trigger the illusion array's attack, or you will be completely lost within it, becoming one of the countless skeletons scattered around, used by the array.

Therefore, this is a dead end unless it can be broken directly.

……

Gradually, burly men appeared in many dilapidated buildings in the ancient town, carrying weapons.

"They dine and dash and then assault people. Do they think the people in our town are easy to bully?"

"Fellow villagers, let's all charge forward!"

Meow Meow saw everything, but without her discerning eyes, she couldn't tell the difference between truth and falsehood.

She even doubted that the people she saw were real, and that this place was not some ancient ruin of the ghost race at all, but just an ordinary town.

Chu Zhen remained unmoved. At this moment, what was rushing towards them was not only the skeleton monsters, but also some people conjured by the formation.

Without a discerning eye, it's impossible to distinguish between illusion and reality.

"Huh!"

A skeletal monster pounced and opened its mouth to bite Chu Zhen.

The hunting broadsword appeared, sweeping across and cutting it into bones.

Chu Zhen helped Wu Hanqiu translate a lot of ancient texts, and in doing so, he also learned a lot of martial arts skills.

Although they are all low-level martial arts techniques, using them together feels quite good.

"To be so powerful in a mere Demon Realm, not bad, not bad!" A distant and hoarse voice echoed around.

Upon hearing this, Chu Zhen smiled slightly: "It seems the final boss is about to make his appearance."

It's pointless to keep dealing with small fry. His purpose in coming here is to see if there are any ghost clan techniques, not to grind monsters.

Besides, these are all inanimate objects, so there's absolutely no energy value to be gained.

"I never expected to encounter such a promising talent after the revival of spiritual energy. It seems that Heaven has been kind to me, the ever-changing old ghost." The voice rang out again.

"The Old Man of a Hundred Transformations?" Meow Meow was taken aback: "You're actually the Old Man of a Hundred Transformations?"

"Oh? You little imp know me?"

"I wouldn't say I know you personally, but I've heard my elders in the family mention you before."

"So, which bloodline of the cat demon clan are you, little kitten?"

"Of course, it's the most powerful lineage," Meow Meow said smugly.

"The most powerful lineage?" The ever-changing old ghost pondered, then exclaimed in surprise, "Could it be the Nine-Lives Cat Demon? You are the Demon King's daughter!"

Meow Meow snorted, full of pride.

"Hahaha! I've long heard that the Nine-Lives Cat Demon among the Thirty-Six Demon Kings had a daughter, but I never imagined it would be you, little girl. So, you should call me senior." said the Ever-Changing Old Ghost.

"Demons and ghosts have always kept to themselves and never interacted. Why should I call you senior? Humph!"

"What a fine 'no interaction' statement! But as far as I know, the demon race and the demon clan should be sworn enemies. Any demon who associates with the demon clan is guilty of a grave crime. Little kitty, how do you explain the demon beside you?" the ever-changing old ghost asked.

“You’re wrong, he’s not a demon,” Meow Meow said.

"Although the martial arts technique he just used was human, the energy he used was demonic energy. He must have cultivated demonic techniques. What else could he be but a demon?"

Meow Meow was speechless, unsure how to explain.

At this moment, Chu Zhen laughed and said, "In my opinion, whether it is true qi, demonic qi, monster qi or ghost qi, they all originate from the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. In a sense, there is not much difference. As long as I feel that I am still a human being, no matter what kind of cultivation method I practice, I belong to the human race."

In the ancient times, the division between races was very clear.

If a human uses demonic energy, they will definitely be judged as a demon.

As people in the 21st century, due to the different times and cultural differences, we don't have as many concerns.

Wu Hanqiu of Donghai City is currently deciphering the Demon Clan's ancient script. Once he succeeds, he will definitely choose a suitable human to cultivate the Demon Clan's techniques.

In the eyes of modern people, there are only differences in stance and interests, not racial boundaries.

Is it human, demon, or monster?

It all depends on your choice.

"Hahaha! Well said!" the ever-changing old ghost laughed.

Among the myriad races of the ancient times, the Ghost Clan is definitely the most disliked. Some races would not hesitate to kill the Ghost Clan if they could.

Therefore, they hide their true colors and try every means to cover up even their nests.

“Young man, if I weren’t trapped here, I would really be reluctant to kill you. However, with the arrival of the primordial chaos, I have no choice but to seal myself here to avoid disaster.”

The ever-changing old ghost continued, "Now that my physical body has been reduced to ashes, leaving only my primordial spirit, it is precisely the time when I need a physical body. You, who are merely at the Demon Realm Opening stage, possess such a powerful physical body, which is perfect for my use."

Chu Zhen raised an eyebrow: "Judging from your tone, it seems you are very confident in possessing my body."

"Of course, don't you even know my skills, the Hundred-Faced Old Ghost? Possessing a body is what I'm best at."

Chu Zhen turned to look at Miao Miao and said calmly, "Is this old ghost that awesome?"

Meow Meow was embarrassed and said, "It is said that there were ghost generals in the ancient times, but now that spiritual energy has recovered, I don't know how much of your ability you can still retain."

"However, what he said is not true. Possessing other people's bodies is his most skilled ability, which is why he has the title of 'Old Ghost of a Hundred Transformations,' meaning that every time he appears, his appearance is different from the last time," Meow Meow said.

Many of the demon race's techniques are selfish and extremely cruel to living beings, which is why they are not well-liked by other races.

This method of constantly possessing others and absorbing their life essence to enhance one's cultivation has harmed countless lives.

“That’s perfect, I’ll rid the people of this scourge today.” Chu Zhen’s eyes flashed with golden light.
