"Where did the streamer and Aunt Hui go?"
"Uncle Lianfeng is gone too?"
"That happened before in the chess and card room, didn't it?"
In the live stream room,
The viewers watched the three disappear one after another, and couldn't help but recall the chess game Xia Qingqing played.
They vaguely guessed something.
"Could it be that those whose wishes are fulfilled and have no regrets ascend to heaven?"
"Holy crap, don't scare me, where's the streamer?"
Did the streamer ascend to heaven with Aunt Hui?!
It shouldn't be that outrageous, right?!
"You guys successfully scared me!"
"You've made me nervous. Clearly, all the other players are still here."
Just as the viewers were panicking,
The live stream screen suddenly went black.
The faces of the viewers appeared on the screen.
In an instant,
They became even more flustered.
"Who was the jinx?! Drag them out and spank them!"
...
In a warm and bright energy channel,
Jiang Lin followed Aunt Hui, moving forward. From time to time, forces sensed his anomaly and began to block him.
He dodged them all.
It was worth mentioning that the forces blocking him were even very gentle.
They were like well-intentioned attempts to drive him away.
After an unknown amount of time,
A light cluster with a diameter of about one meter appeared in front of Jiang Lin, and Aunt Hui's energy line plunged into it.
She disappeared.
Jiang Lin stopped in time. After looking around,
He took out a paper figure from his pocket, without inputting any commands.
He simply infused it with ghostly energy and controlled it to fly over, landing on the massive light cluster.
The light cluster seemed to be a pure energy body, but it felt soft to the touch.
The paper figure tried to drill into it but found no way forward.
"Could it be that it must be a pure energy body?"
Jiang Lin pondered, and a wisp of ghostly energy appeared on his fingertip.
With a thought,
The wisp of ghostly energy flew out and poked the surface of the light sphere.
It couldn't get in.
Jiang Lin then drew out a wisp of divine power. The divine power landed on the light sphere, but still couldn't get in.
It stood side-by-side with the ghostly energy.
Jiang Lin merged the two together, and a memory fragment immediately appeared in his mind.
He quickly concentrated and detached himself from the memory fragment.
The gray power emanated a terrifying aura.
Under Jiang Lin's control, it moved towards the light cluster again.
The light cluster remained impenetrable, but a hint of possibility emerged.
In terms of power,
The gray gas was more dominant than divine power and ghostly energy.
Upon discovering it was impenetrable, it directly began to force its way in.
With a bit of effort,
It tore a tiny crack on the light cluster,
And then drilled in.
The space inside the light sphere was vast, with no visible end.
A body of water divided the space into two parts, upper and lower.
Above the water, numerous light spots of various sizes floated.
These light spots felt very pure, just like Aunt Hui's.
Being in this space,
The wisp of mental energy that Jiang Lin entered felt like it was being purified.
This purification was not annihilation or elimination.
Instead, it made both body and mind tranquil and comfortable.
A feeling of the world's beauty.
Was this the interior of the ghost building?
Absolute goodness?
Jiang Lin recalled everything in the ghost building. This light cluster could not be the entirety of the ghost building.
Perhaps...
There was also a space of absolute 'evil'?
...
The gray energy body stood in the vast space, appearing tiny and insignificant.
"Oh?"
Just as Jiang Lin was pondering,
A warm voice, neither male nor female, suddenly sounded.
It didn't have a discernible origin but echoed throughout the entire space.
"You shouldn't be here."
From the gray energy body, Jiang Lin's thought emerged: 'What is this place?'
"It is a place where all true goodness and beauty from the ghost building are gathered," the voice replied.
"Are you a native resident here?"
"I cannot send you out, but I think you are looking for something?"
Jiang Lin pondered for a moment, 'Are you also a collection of true goodness and beauty?'
"You can understand it that way."
'I want to know some information about you, can you tell me?'
"What do you want to know?"
'For example... where do you come from, what is the ghost building, and what is the purpose of coming here?'
"We originally existed in another world. All residents there are aggregations of energy bodies.
The ghost building was originally just a container for residents' entertainment and the collection of emotional energy. However, gradually, as time passed, everyone was no longer satisfied with the entertainment and energy collection in their own world.
So, we began to travel to various worlds."
Jiang Lin: 'Just entertainment?'
"For the residents of our original world, it is entertainment."
'Are you the core of this place?'
"I am only a part of the core.
From the very beginning of the ghost building's establishment, it was divided into two parts, designing game levels together.
Originally, we had equal permissions, but as we captured more and more 'evil,' which increasingly satisfied the needs of our residents.
Therefore, my permissions were reduced, and my proportion in the ghost building decreased."
Upon saying this,
The voice, neither male nor female, paused, "You want to conquer the ghost building? That's a very interesting idea.
But I'm afraid it's impossible.
Although the power you possess is very miraculous, the ghost building is ultimately a product of world will."
Jiang Lin did not answer but asked, 'How can I find the other part of the ghost building's core?'
"..."
The voice was silent for a moment, "Go further up, deeper in."
"You should leave here, it's already chasing you."
Jiang Lin quickly asked his last question: 'Did you just lie?'
A well-intentioned lie is also goodness.
"No, there's no need."
...
The gray energy body flew out of the light cluster and returned to Jiang Lin's fingertip.
Soon, he understood what the other party meant by 'it's already chasing you.'
That was the ghost building's 'teleportation channel.'
Chaotic energy, incompatible with this place.
After each clearance, there was a five-minute countdown to start teleportation.
It was estimated that they couldn't find him when preparing to teleport.
So, they chased him along his departure trajectory.
If this was the 'good' channel,
Then the black hole channel entered the ghost building before, and the channels seen when entering the game were controlled by 'evil'?
Seeing the approaching energy of the chasing channel,
Jiang Lin put away the gray energy body and let the channel engulf him.
Not long after entering the channel,
Jiang Lin saw the familiar scene again,
In the vast energy channel, various small channels intertwined.
New energy lines broke in from time to time.
Just as he was about to be pulled into the resting room, the gray energy within Jiang Lin overflowed.
He instantly broke free from the channel,
Turning his body, he flew towards a channel with robust energy.
...
...
【Mini Theater】
When the ghost building's teleportation channel reached the tree-planting event level: Where did they go?
After finally catching up to the player, they quickly pulled them back into the normal track.
Just as they were about to finish, they felt a pain in their body.
Upon looking again, there was a hole.
The player inside was gone.
"???"
...
