Just as Lee Yeong drove the divine car extracted from the system out of the parking lot, a high overpass not far away emanated colorful light waves, gradually forming a circular energy area…
"Is that… a Spirit Realm?…" Lee Yeong naturally also saw this scene.
…
At this moment, on the other side, in a noodle restaurant called "Sister's Noodle House," three people were busy serving an endless stream of customers.
Suddenly, one of the beautiful women's expressions changed. In her perception, a malevolent spirit was killing someone. Nodding to her two companions, the three quickly put down what they were doing, told the customers to leave on their own after finishing their meals, and then went out towards the place they had sensed…
On the surface, the three of them ran a noodle restaurant, but in reality, they were malevolent spirit hunters directly under the jurisdiction of Heaven, responsible for capturing malevolent spirits that possessed humans.
The beautiful woman was named Do Ha Na, possessing superior mind-reading and telepathic abilities, able to sense the voices of malevolent spirits within a thousand-kilometer radius through her thoughts.
The uncle was named Ga Mo Tak , the strongest powerhouse and the primary combatant.
The aunt was named Chu Mae Ok , the team leader and the only healer, possessing the ability to heal others.
All hunters were beings who were given life again on the verge of death, so they were not allowed to interfere with human life. Their duty was to capture malevolent spirits and send them back to Heaven for judgment.
When they arrived at the crime scene, the malevolent spirit had already left, so the three pursued the malevolent spirit's aura…
Around a corner, Ji Chung Sin, possessed by the malevolent spirit, was walking forward with a look of enjoyment. Suddenly, Ga Mo Tak punched him, sending him flying into a wall. Ga Mo Tak gave him no chance to react and continued to attack.
Ji Chung Sin quickly recovered from being stunned and seized the opportunity to kick Ga Mo Tak away.
"Who are you? What do you want to do?" Ji Chung Sin asked, puzzled.
"You just killed someone, what do you think I want to do?" Ga Mo Tak saw that Do Ha Na had also arrived, so he attacked again, joining forces with Do Ha Na.
The two cooperated seamlessly, but Ji Chung Sin had just devoured a soul, and soon the two were at a disadvantage again. A powerful blow sent Ga Mo Tak flying and falling to the ground, and another sweep pinned Do Ha Na to the ground.
Just as he was about to deliver a fatal blow, Chu Mae Ok arrived and grabbed an iron pipe, shooting it towards him. With a dodge, the iron pipe directly embedded itself in the wall.
Realizing something was wrong, Ji Chung Sin powered up for a jump and reached the rooftop, fleeing into the distance…
The three once again moved to encircle Ji Chung Sin, driving him towards the Spirit Realm, where another companion, Jang Cheol Jung , was ambushing him. Once he entered the Spirit Realm, they would work together to capture the malevolent spirit.
…
At the same time, Lee Yeong also drove towards the Spirit Realm. He was preparing to meet that malevolent spirit, Ji Chung Sin. Malevolent spirits possess humans, constantly tempting the host and amplifying the host's evil thoughts until they completely merge with the human, just like spirit masters in novels.
The moment Lee Yeong entered the Spirit Realm, Do Ha Na also sensed Lee Yeong. Jang Cheol Jung did not wait for them to arrive to act together; instead, he wanted to use the Spirit Realm's enhancement to deal with Ji Chung Sin. However…
"Hurry, Jang Cheol Jung is in danger, and another human has entered the Spirit Realm," Do Ha Na urged her companions, sensing the movements within the Spirit Realm.
Just as Jang Cheol Jung knocked down the malevolent spirit and was about to integrate him into Heaven's judgment, the Spirit Realm suddenly disappeared.
Without the Spirit Realm's enhancement, Ji Chung Sin also recovered from his weakness. Then, a few blows made Jang Cheol Jung vomit blood, and he grabbed a steel bar from the ground and stabbed Jang Cheol Jung .
"Stop," Lee Yeong finally arrived at this moment. Seeing Jang Cheol Jung , who had only one breath left, his heart tightened, and then he stared at Ji Chung Sin with a solemn expression. After all, it was his first time experiencing such a scene.
Ji Chung Sin saw Lee Yeong come out to disrupt things and angrily rushed towards him. Although Lee Yeong had fused with the super soldier serum, he lacked experience and could only barely parry Ji Chung Sin's attacks…
As the two fought, Jang Cheol Jung , lying on the side, quickly lost his breath. A pale blue soul floated up and was swallowed by Ji Chung Sin. Ji Chung Sin's face first became ferocious, then showed an expression of enjoyment. He felt his power increase once again, and then he set his gaze back on Lee Yeong.
"This is troublesome. I must intensify my special training when I go back this time. My strength is clearly similar to his, yet I can only passively defend." Lee Yeong felt extremely stifled; he had strength but couldn't use it, yet he wasn't afraid or retreated, instead taking the initiative to attack.
"Jang Cheol Jung , Jang Cheol Jung , are you okay?" The belated voices of Do Ha Na and her two companions rang out. Looking at the two fighting in front and Jang Cheol Jung lying on the ground, they understood in their hearts that Jang Cheol Jung was already dead.
Ji Chung Sin, seeing the three who had pursued him again, also forcefully repelled Lee Yeong, turned around, and ran towards the exit. Lee Yeong and the others did not pursue him further; there were too many pedestrians and vehicles outside, and the risk of exposure would be too great, too troublesome…
"Who are you? Why are you here?" Ga Mo Tak asked, looking at Lee Yeong in front of him.
"Don't be nervous, my name is Lee Yeong. I saw the person who just escaped trying to kill your friend, so I came out to stop him, but I'm sorry I couldn't stop him. You shouldn't be ordinary people, right?" Lee Yeong asked, feigning ignorance.
"You're also a ghost hunter, aren't you? Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to fight the malevolent spirit for so long." The three, realizing Lee Yeong wasn't an enemy, also lowered their guard, thinking Lee Yeong was like them.
"Um… yes, haha… Since you are companions, I have other things to do, so I'll leave first." Lee Yeong had a "you're right" expression. "That malevolent spirit just devoured his soul again, so he will definitely become stronger.
You should be careful in the future," he said, then turned and left. Do Ha Na and her two companions did not stop him; with Jang Cheol Jung 's death, they had to stay and deal with the aftermath…
Lee Yeong knew clearly that after a ghost hunter died, the soul originally attached to them would leave the body and needed to find a new body again within a short period, or it would completely die. However, this time, an accident occurred with Wi Gen, and he entered So Mun's body, becoming a special ghost hunter…
In this battle with the malevolent spirit, Lee Yeong clearly identified his shortcomings. Facing the assassin Ji Chung Sin, who was possessed by a malevolent spirit, if it weren't for his abnormal physical quality, he probably wouldn't have lasted long.
Lee Yeong drove to a boxing gym. This was the best club in Seoul, and the coaches in charge were all retired special forces soldiers. What he lacked most was combat experience and fighting skills.
In the following days, Lee Yeong would come to the boxing gym to practice whether it was after school or during his free time. The coaches in the club were all pulled in to be his sparring partners because he not only had great strength and speed but also astonishing recovery ability.
He often trained for several hours at a time, making the coaches groan in misery. Lee Yeong instantly became a popular figure in the club, until a week later…
"Ding, please host go to Seoul Cathedral to sign in."
Lee Yeong, who had just come out of the boxing gym, was suddenly overjoyed. The system hadn't moved for several days, and he had even thought it might have malfunctioned.
At this time in the cathedral, a figure was out of place among the devout worshipers. She was Ji Eun Tak, the female lead from "Goblin." She had been able to see ghosts since childhood and was called the "Goblin's Bride." Two days ago, on her birthday, after blowing out the candles, she summoned "Goblin" Kim Sin. Feeling that he was different from other ghosts, she became curious about Kim Sin. She planned to summon Kim Sin in the cathedral to see what was going on…
"Ding, detecting host has arrived at the sign-in location, signing in…"
"Ding, congratulations host on signing in…"
