"Waaah—"
Early in the morning, Jiangqiao, who had been in the town for three days, finally heard the loud sound of a ship's horn coming from afar.
Then he saw a train billowing black smoke appear on the horizon.
"Have they arrived?"
Jiang Qiao's eyes gleamed, and he felt a surge of excitement.
"I only waited three days, so I was quite lucky."
For the past three days, he hasn't even left the station, staying only in the vicinity, fearing that something unexpected might happen.
Although the town seemed safe, and he hadn't encountered any vengeful spirits along the way, he still couldn't completely rule out the possibility of hidden dangers.
After all, finding a deserted and safe area in the supernatural world is quite a luxury.
"I heard that this town hasn't been occupied by humans because it lacks sacrificial spirits, making it unsafe. In this situation, it's about as dangerous as building a village in the wilderness."
"But I always felt that there must be some secret hidden in the town."
Jiang Qiao glanced around the station.
He did not see any vengeful ghosts, nor did he hear any strange noises or supernatural phenomena.
Everything around was calm and peaceful.
But he just had a gut feeling.
Something is hidden in this town, and something very terrifying!
"There are so many secrets in the supernatural world; it feels like every inch of land is buried with a story."
"However, these things are not relevant to me for the time being."
"My most important thing right now is to get on the train and get back to the real world."
...
In the small town, on a platform that has been abandoned for countless years, a train belching black smoke slowly came to a stop.
"This train is more terrifying than a bus; it makes it impossible to see the truth."
Jiang Qiao used his double pupils to look twice and found that even when the speed was increased to the limit, he still couldn't see anything.
A train viewed through gray areas looks no different from one viewed through normal areas.
"Hopefully nothing will get off the bus."
He was on high alert, ready to fight against the supernatural.
Because once the ghost train stops in a rage, all human passengers will lose their protection, while vengeful ghosts and ghost stories will kill people inside the carriages.
In addition, once the car door is opened, there is a high possibility that a vengeful ghost will get out of the car.
These vengeful ghosts dared to make a move on the bus, so if they got off and saw a fresh-faced "human," wouldn't they just start attacking right away?
Squeak—Bang!
Under Jiang Qiao's watchful gaze, the door of the next carriage suddenly opened!
"Get in the car."
Without hesitation, he went straight to the train door and tried to climb the steps onto the train.
However, just as he lifted his foot, he felt a sudden darkness before his eyes.
Immediately afterwards, a strong smell of blood wafted over!
"A ghost?"
Jiang Qiao's gaze sharpened.
He saw a strange figure appear at the car door and prepare to get out.
The figure was shrouded in darkness. Although the surrounding light was not dim, it gave the impression of being hidden in a dark corner.
You can't see their face or body shape clearly; there's only a blurry outline.
As it moved, a fishy smell quickly spread.
"Make it get off the vehicle!"
Without any hesitation, Jiang Qiao immediately took a few steps back to make room.
He didn't want to clash with this vengeful ghost.
"If a vengeful ghost gets out of the car, it might kill someone."
"So once it lands, immediately use Ghostly Path to get on the vehicle and don't give it any chance to cause trouble."
As Jiang Qiao pondered this, a gray aura began to surge in his eyes.
Although the thick smoke fused with "White Bone Fire" possesses considerable destructive power, it is no match for Gray Ghost Year in terms of sheer ghostly aura and intensity.

The Gray Ghost Realm is an ability derived from the third-tier talent "Double Pupils," yet it always displays terrifying power comparable to a sixth-tier talent.
This was something Jiang Qiao was very wary of.
After all, when I first acquired the talent, the simulator gave me a warning: if I overused it, it might lead me to a strange place.
At the time, he thought this strange place was the supernatural world.
However, after arriving in the supernatural world and witnessing various deeper levels of supernatural spaces along the way, he realized that these pupils were probably connected to even deeper, more eerie spaces.
In the presence of these spaces, the supernatural world feels as safe as a beginner's area.

The sound of the ghost stepping on the iron ladder suggests that although its form is unclear, it is a physical entity.
After getting off the bus in a few steps.
It stood a few steps outside the car door, neither leaving immediately nor attacking Jiang Qiao.
Instead, he slightly moved his head, seemingly surveying his surroundings.
Why would it come to this abandoned town?
"There aren't even any ghosts here anymore."
Jiang Qiao was somewhat surprised and suspicious.
The ghosts don't get off the vehicle randomly; they often have a specific destination in mind when they board it.
"There's definitely something wrong with this town."
However, he doesn't intend to dwell on these things right now.
Upon seeing that there were two body lengths between the vengeful ghost and the car door, a gray aura instantly filled his eyes.
After avoiding the vengeful ghost, the ghostly aura successfully enveloped the car door.
However, perhaps due to the influence of the train, this supernatural force was unable to directly enter the train doors.
"That's enough."
"Now's the time, get on the bus!"
Without any hesitation, Jiang Qiao appeared at the car door in a flash.
However, he lifted his leg and went inside.
At the same moment, the vengeful ghost, less than two meters away, seemed to sway slightly, but ultimately did not do anything.
"It's alright now."
Jiang Qiao had been watching the movements behind him, and seeing this, he breathed a slight sigh of relief.
...
Inside the train carriage.
The passengers who were already on board secretly sized up the newcomer. They all breathed a sigh of relief after realizing he wasn't a vengeful ghost.
"There are no vengeful ghosts, but there are eight unlucky guys."
Jiang Qiao glanced at the situation inside the carriage and understood.
Among these people, there were five ordinary people and three awakened individuals. However, the awakened individuals were all weaklings, only possessing the strength of someone who had just entered the second tier.
I guess they got on the bus for some kind of mission.
However, one of them seemed to be carrying something ominous.
Jiang Qiao ignored the group of dying men and went straight to the back of the carriage to find a seat.
at this time.
The vengeful ghost that got off the bus still stood at the door, doing something unknown.
"Ghosts are different from humans; their behavior is often purposeful."
"Are you waiting for something by not leaving?"
He observed as he made his own guesses.
...
After sitting down on the river bridge.
The three Awakened Ones sitting at the front of the carriage exchanged glances.
A note was handed out from one of them:
What do you guys think of this person?
soon.
There was an extra sentence on the note:
"Wait a little longer. Getting on the bus from a place like this could very well be a big tiger."
