Transmigrating over ten thousand years late, I was forced to become a mighty presence

Chapter 48 The Real Kill Game _1

Translator: 549690339 |

All of this happened in an instant, and the other three Pavilion Masters didn’t even have time to react.

It was only when the large mouth swallowed the meat mountain that the three Pavilion Masters woke up from their daze and looked towards the grinning mouth in the void.

“Ghost Market!”

“Why did he awaken the Ghost Market?”

“Why would the Ghost Market devour the Treasure House Master?”

No one answered their questions because the hideous mouth that swallowed the Treasure House Master had already turned towards them.

The three Pavilion Masters felt a chill spread over their bodies. Even though they were a part of the Ghost Market, it did not mean they have the power to resist it.

Without any hesitation, a furious roar erupted from the mouth of Hexagram Divination Demon.

“Run!”

The three Pavilion Masters turned into three streaks of light, flying towards the distance, trying to escape the range of the Ghost Market.

However, standing in the Ghost Market, how easy is it to escape from it? Moreover, they were part of the Ghost Market, how could they escape the control of the main body will?

The massive mouth in the void opened. The ordered space shifted in an instant and the three escaping Pavilion Masters appeared directly inside the large mouth of the Ghost Market.

At the Ghost Market, there is no room for the cultivation of the Spirit Transmutation Stage to play out. The massive mouth chewed on the remaining souls without any restraint, letting them completely dissipate.

The cries of the ghosts stopped. In the night sky of this Ghost Market, only a gaping mouth that devoured everything was left.

Then, in the void, a pair of pale eyes slowly opened, looking at Shen Yuan.

Shen Yuan felt a shiver in his heart, but his face did not reveal any sign of it.

In fact, the nature of the game changed when the Candle Dragon Inscription on the Darkness-Light Sword started devouring the ghost fog during the bet with the Treasure House Master.

After the Darkness-Light Sword swallowed the ghost fog, its unique feature could transform the ghost fog into a domain, similar to the Cold Dark Domain of the previous sword slave.

Shen Yuan, as the master of the Darkness-Light Sword, controlled the Ghost Fog Domain. In essence, he snatched a part of the Ghost Market, forming a connection with it.

Unlike the ghosts and ghouls integrated into the Ghost Market, Shen Yuan only controlled the Ghost Fog Domain. He himself, however, was an independent entity not restricted by the control of the Ghost Market.

With the help of the Ghost Fog Domain, Shen Yuan was in a certain sense eligible to have a dialogue with the Ghost Market on an equal footing. It was this equal dialogue qualification that enabled Shen Yuan to lay out this trap to kill the four Pavilion Masters.

In terms of power alone, Shen Yuan could not compete against any of the four Pavilion Masters. Even with the trump cards of the Darkness-Light Sword and the space hand grenade, he could not seriously threaten a Ghost Object’s life at the Spirit Transmutation Stage.

Shen Yuan’s Pot’s Heaven Divine Skill can disrupt Ghost Object’s spatial defenses, but killing the four Pavilion Masters is as difficult as scaling the heavens.

Shen Yuan could not kill the four Pavilion Masters, but the Ghost Market could! Despite the four Pavilion Masters manipulating loopholes to make the Ghost Market chaotic and seemingly under their control.

In Shen Yuan’s perception, the Ghost Market was in a special state of hibernation. The Spirit Energy Tidal Surge in the present world could not support the Ghost Market’s complete revival, so it could only maintain its state through hibernation.

Being an unusual form of life, the Ghost Market itself did not have real wisdom;

it just followed the rules of trade as an instinct.

This discovery made Shen Yuan realise that he could use the Ghost Market to get rid of the four Pavilion Masters.

So, after winning the gamble, Shen Yuan intentionally refused the generous bets offered by the four Pavilion Masters and directly stated that he wanted an equivalent bet.

Not even the four Pavilion Masters, let alone selling the Ghost Market, could necessarily meet this condition.

Shen Yuan was deliberately driving the four Pavilion Masters into a dead-end. The four Pavilion Masters, in their despair, broke the gambling agreement and took the initiative to attack Shen Yuan, trying to kill him.

However, the fundamental rule of the Ghost Market is trade, so breaching the bet and attacking the guest is undoubtedly breaking the rule of trade, violating the most basic rule and even the four Pavilion Masters couldn’t escape the punishment.

The four Pavilion Masters were so audacious because they were banking on the Ghost Market not waking up, assuming they held all the power.

But Shen Yuan used the Ghost Fog Domain to awaken the Ghost Market, completely shattering their delusions.

From the moment the Ghost Market awakened, their fate was sealed As a unique life form born to uphold the rules of trade, the Ghost Market does not allow anyone to trample on its rules.

The four Pavilion Masters are dead, but that does not mean the whole event has ended. For Shen Yuan, the time to reap the rewards is just beginning.

Shen Yuan stared directly at the pale eyes in the void and said:

“I have won the bet. According to the betting rules, the Ghost Market should compensate me.”

The Ghost Market, working with its simple logic, seemed to be contemplating Shen Yuan’s words.

Request… is… reasonable… compensation…”

Before the Ghost Market could finish, Shen Yuan raised his Immortal Sword in one hand, and with his other hand, he picked up the shrunken Bai Xue, saying: “This is part of the stake. In addition, there are two Earthly Destroyer Divine Skills. I won’t ask for more compensation for the flesh and skin part of the stakes.”

The Ghost Market swept its gaze over the cat and sword in Shen Yuan’s hand, its pallid pupils abruptly contracting.

Then, there was a nauseating sound in the void, like dry retching. Vast amounts of ghost fog were vomited from the Ghost Market’s hideous mouth, even some yellowish fat and dried-up arms mixed within.

“These, are, from your… your bet… they are…”

Shen Yuan’s eyes twitched slightly.

He naturally recognized, the ghost fog and corpses spat out by the Ghost Market were the four Pavilion Masters that it had just devoured.

It seemed that the Ghost Market realized that it couldn’t afford the bet’s compensation and simply pinned the blame back on the four Pavilion Masters.

“The Ghost Market, originally a straightforward place, has become corrupt due to the corrupt influences around it.”

Shen Yuan was speechless, but the Candle Dragon Inscription on his Darkness- Light Sword did not refuse such a vast amount of ghost fog. The dragon’s mouth continuously devoured the ghost fog.

Looking at the actions of the Darkness-Light Sword, the pale pupil in the sky trembled slightly and wanted to speak but hesitated. In the end, it didn’t say anything.

Eerily, the amount of ghost fog transformed from the death of the four Pavilion Masters far exceeded that of a Treasure House. As the sword absorbed, Shen Yuan saw several rusty spots fall off from the sword’s body, dissipating in the air.

Not paying any attention to the Darkness-Light Sword, Shen Yuan continued to speak to the Ghost Market:

“Since the four Pavilion Masters have been executed, I won’t dwell on the stakes.

However, the humans that they’ve forcibly stolen these past few days using the Ghost Market must be released.”

The Ghost Market was inherently at fault, fearing that Shen Yuan would continue pursuing the stakes issue.

Since Shen Yuan had given up his stake, it felt relieved. It wouldn’t mind releasing a few humans and hurriedly agreed.

“Good!”

Shen Yuan’s expression eased considerably, and then he continued:

“From now on, the ghost entities within the Ghost Market are not allowed to harm humans in anyway during transactions.”

“Yes, okay.”

“The Ghost Market must not forcibly bring people within. It has to respect the

right of the guests to come and go.”

“No, no problem.”

Shen Yuan stated several conditions for restricting the Ghost Market, and all of them were agreed upon by the Ghost Market.

The Ghost Market only wanted to send off this creditor as soon as possible now, with no thought to worry about any details.

“Lastly, as a guest of the Ghost Market, I was attacked here. Shouldn’t the Ghost Market provide some compensation?”

As his words fell, Shen Yuan immediately felt space-time shifting in front of him. The next moment, he was standing in a wilderness.

The Ghost Market directly threw him out of the market and escaped.

Shen Yuan fell silent, “Am I really that frightening?”

Just as he was speaking, Shen Yuan suddenly realized that there was an extra object in his right hand.

Picking it up, Shen Yuan realized the object in his hand was a radiant bead resembling a silver moon.

Under the illumination of the moonlight, inside the bead was the figure of a graceful little man, dancing lightly amidst the silver moon.

A familiar memory flashed through Shen Yuan’s mind, causing him to blurt out subconsciously.

“Primordial Spirit Bead!”
