Transcending Heavens: My Cheat Code is Myself

My name is Chen Feng, I am 18 years old, and I live in a rented room in Dahai City. I share a room with other people every day. I am not married and work in a department store in the city center, which is 14 kilometers away. I only need to take the subway for two and a half hours every day without having to transfer. I always get home before 9 p.m. at the latest.

I don't smoke or drink alcohol, I go to bed at 11 p.m. every night, and I make sure to get a full eight hours of sleep every day to ensure I get enough rest.

At the same time, I am also a staunch materialist fighter in the 21st century.

Before today, if someone had told me that ghosts exist, I would never have believed it.

But now even something as absurd as time travel has happened to me, and ghosts that shouldn't exist are still chasing after me.

Originally, I was completely calm because of the amulet my master gave me, but now I'm panicking.

You want to ask me why?

It's very simple, I was ripped off by a guy who looked like an honest man.

"Help!" Chen Feng ran as fast as he could, shouting at the top of his lungs, glancing back every now and then, and noticing that the female ghost's fingernails were almost touching him.

Just as Chen Feng felt he was about to start speaking fluent Chinese, a loud shout rang out from beside him.

"You monster! How dare you commit violence in front of me!"

A yellow talisman came from the direction of the voice and flew towards the female demon behind him like a streak of light. Chen Feng looked up and saw that it was his master, Uncle Nine, who had used the genuine yellow talisman!

Chen Feng burst into tears of joy. The yellow talisman flew like the wind and moved as fast as lightning. With a "biu" sound, it struck the female ghost directly in the back of the heart.

Puff! Puff! Puff! Splatter!

The moment the yellow talisman entered her body, it shone brightly, and countless purplish-black sludge burst forth from her body. The female ghost deflated like a punctured balloon, leaking air everywhere.

"What are you standing there for? Run!" Uncle Nine urged. Chen Feng was also stunned for a moment, and then he saw the purplish-black silt rushing towards him like a tide. He was scared half to death. This stuff smelled so bad. If he got even a little bit on it, he was afraid his clothes would be ruined. He immediately turned and ran.

However, the female ghost was still persistent, muttering, "The black fertilizer is evaporating..."

The claws on its hand kept extending and reached out to grab Chen Feng, seemingly trying to drag Chen Feng down with it. Chen Feng let out a strange cry.

"You beast! How dare you act so violently!" Uncle Nine delivered a flying kick to the female ghost's stomach, sending her flying several meters away. He then unfurled his robes and declared, "With me here, you won't be able to harm my disciple!"

"Black fertilizer volatilization..." the female ghost shrieked incessantly, her eyes growing increasingly clear, her entire being turning crimson.

"Oh no, he's going to become a vengeful ghost!" Uncle Nine's heart skipped a beat, and he turned to look at Chen Feng. "What exactly is this black fertilizer? Why does it make this female ghost so resentful that she's willing to risk her soul being scattered and not being able to reincarnate to seek revenge?"

"........."

Chen Feng was speechless for a moment. It's just a rhyme, right? What grudge could you possibly have? Is it really that serious? I think you've really lost your mind.

"We can't let this go any further. Luckily, you lured her out. Her yin energy couldn't gather into a solid form before she could transform into a vengeful ghost. It's not that easy for her to do so."

Uncle Nine stepped on the Seven Stars, and immediately pinched two more yellow talismans with his right hand. He made a hand seal and pressed them down on the female ghost's head. As soon as the talismans entered the female ghost's body, which was three zhang in size, they immediately began to burn fiercely.

The light shone brightly, and the female ghost was startled by it, her consciousness regaining some clarity. Her deep eyes flashed with fear as she saw the yellow talisman flying towards her, and she quickly flew away to dodge. However, the yellow talisman seemed to be tracking her, instantly catching up and imprinting itself hard on the female ghost's chest.

"what!"

The female ghost's shrill screams rang out. Uncle Nine, without hesitation, threw three yellow talismans, instantly freezing the vengeful ghost in mid-air, unable to move.

The female ghost was terrified and struggled violently. Her black hair began to grow rapidly, like black tentacles that reached out to bind Uncle Nine. Uncle Nine neither dodged nor avoided it. He pinched a yellow talisman in his hand and slapped it on her hair. A flash of bright light appeared, and the female ghost's hair fell down in a rustling sound, turning into yin energy.

Uncle Nine immediately approached, pressing the yellow talisman heavily against the female ghost's chest, and forming a hand seal, which immediately triggered a chain reaction.

Several yellow talismans began to resonate, and a huge fireball burst forth from nowhere, enveloping the female ghost.

With a piercing scream, the female ghost vanished completely, leaving only a glittering mess on the ground.

"Master!" Chen Feng immediately ran to his master's side. "As expected of you, Master! You solved it so easily!"

"Otherwise what? It's just a mere female ghost, how much trouble can she cause me?" Uncle Nine said calmly, his hands behind his back, exuding an air of otherworldly wisdom.

Chen Feng chuckled awkwardly. "Master, you just love to put on an act. It's one thing to pretend with outsiders, but why pretend with your eldest disciple? The original owner had almost forgotten what his parents looked like, but he remembered your embarrassing moments perfectly. Every time I think about them, they're like a flood..."

"what is this?"

Chen Feng's eyes weren't blind yet, and these phosphorescent things on the ground looked exceptionally unusual, like dew on the grass, densely packed.

However, just as Chen Feng looked at the glowing object, in an instant, the unidentified, shimmering objects on the ground, due to Chen Feng's approach, all entered his eyes like swallows returning to their nests.

Chen Feng barely suppressed the urge to scream. What was this thing?!

He then felt as if his soul had suddenly surged forward.

What the hell? I've become a Soul Eater? Then I saw a blurry image of a hilt appear in the previously empty space of my mind.

Chen Feng felt as if he had been electrocuted, followed by an inexplicable surge of joy. So my Zanpakuto didn't disappear after all? It was just that it didn't manifest because there was a lack of spiritual particles in the real world?

In Bleach, if many Hollows invade the human world and are killed, their spiritual particles do not dissipate but remain, causing the area to become a place of spiritual regeneration, and even causing it to collapse into Hueco Mundo.

The same thing is called by different names in different places. Some people call it excessive yin energy, while others call it spiritual pressure. It is normal for things to be different because of the differences in the world, but in the end, they are all related to the relationship between the body and the soul.

For the sake of convenience, Chen Feng simply called the remnant left behind after the ghost was killed "spiritual essence".

........

When the two returned to Lijia Village, it was brightly lit, indicating that the villagers were still very nervous and hadn't gone to sleep yet.

"Uncle Nine is back!"

"Master Lin is back!"

"Really?"

People peeked out from every house.

Chen Feng was speechless. Hadn't he been told not to come out no matter what noise he heard? This guy was so stubborn! No wonder Uncle Nine's teammates had such a high casualty rate...
