Chapter 015: Street of Fierce Ghosts?

Mo Changli had originally planned to observe Chen Xiao for a few more days, but upon learning that he had been taken away by Lin Tianchi, he realized that if a conflict arose between the two, information about the world of supernatural abilities might be revealed. In that case, further observation was pointless.
So, Mo Changli approached Chen Xiao at this moment.
Chen Xiao’s guess was also correct—the Supernatural Abilities Association had already noticed him as soon as he realized he had acquired supernatural powers. However, since Chen Xiao possessed the Divine Essence of the Supreme God, the Association’s forces couldn’t comprehend it, so they simply regarded him as a newly awakened supernatural being.
Soon, the two arrived at a quiet park.
“Has Lin Tianchi told you everything?” Mo Changli got straight to the point without any hesitation.
“Yes,” replied Chen Xiao. Though he was in a very bad mood, he wasn’t foolish enough to take his anger out on this powerful president of the Supernatural Abilities Association.
“Do I have to join the Supernatural Abilities Association just because my powers have awakened?” Chen Xiao asked.
“You don’t have to. But if you join and gain the Association’s recognition, as long as you don’t cause too much trouble in the secular world, they’ll generally turn a blind eye.”
“Quite domineering,” Chen Xiao shook his head. “In that case, I’d better join.”
Hearing Chen Xiao’s words, Mo Changli wore a warm smile. Most newly awakened supernatural beings made wise choices.
In fact, after listening to Lin Tianchi’s explanation that afternoon, he had already decided to join the Supernatural Abilities Association.
Chen Xiao had long longed for the supernatural world mentioned by Lin Tianchi, wanting to see what that parallel world to Earth was like. Moreover, given his current situation, if he wanted to develop his spiritual sea and reach a certain rank, he needed the guidance techniques provided by the Supernatural Abilities Association.
Guidance techniques were methods to unlock one’s own supernatural potential. Although Lin Tianchi also had such techniques, his ones were designed for combat-related powers and seemed useless to Chen Xiao. As for Shui Miao, she wouldn’t have such basic things.
Thus, Chen Xiao and Mo Changli quickly reached an agreement.
“Come on, follow me to the Supernatural Abilities Association,” Mo Changli said, attaching great importance to Chen Xiao. Before reaching a certain rank, his mental strength was at least ten times that of an ordinary person. If he were to unleash his powers, the consequences would be unimaginable. Next time there was a competition for resource areas in the supernatural world, he would likely have another trump card.
Chen Xiao nodded as well. Having already gained a pretty good understanding of the supernatural world, he understood Mo Changli’s thoughts. With the power of the Star Moon, his strength far exceeded that of ordinary ranked supernatural beings.
Mo Changli flipped his hand, and a purple crystal card the size of a playing card appeared in his hand—it was his own supernatural ability card. He waved the card in the air, and a purple glow enveloped the two of them before they disappeared.
……
This was a world with land, air, and buildings. But its sky seemed covered in a layer of gray mist, casting the entire world in a gray hue.
Swish!

A purple glow flashed, and two figures appeared out of thin air.
“Is this the world of superpowers?” Chen Xiao looked around and found that aside from the color of the sky, it was hardly different from Earth. The land, air, and gravity were all exactly the same as on Earth.
However, since there was no sunlight here, few superpowered individuals wanted to settle here—though this wasn’t absolute.
“That Lin Tianchi guy said only those with a superpower card could enter. Apparently, he doesn’t want to bring me along.” Seeing Mo Changli bring her in so easily, Chen Xiao began to complain about Lin Tianchi.
“Lin Tianchi?” Mo Changli was momentarily stunned before smiling and saying, “That kid’s superpower card isn’t advanced enough, so only he can enter here alone.”
Saying this, Mo Changli waved the purple crystal card in his hand. “Superpower cards also come in different levels—red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, purple. Red is the lowest, and purple is the highest. Lin Tianchi’s red card doesn’t give him the authority to bring others in.”
“I see,” Chen Xiao nodded.
The place where Chen Xiao and Mo Changli arrived seemed to be in front of a huge market, bustling with people.
“Huh? Strange, are those transparent people also superpowered? How weird.”
After entering the market, Chen Xiao immediately noticed that most of the vendors and shopkeepers there had semi-transparent bodies, looking extremely eerie.
“They’re undead from the Netherworld, what we commonly call ghosts. They’re not superpowered at all,” Mo Changli explained.
“Ghosts?” Chen Xiao’s eyes widened instantly, and his hair stood on end. As a true Earthling, no one was fearless of ghosts. Now that he had seen real ghosts, his whole body trembled.
“Don’t be afraid. These ghosts are just another form of life. They’re no different from ordinary humans and have no powers. Even a newly awakened superpowered individual can easily kill them,” Mo Changli said. “In this superpower space, there’s no sunlight that undead fear, which is why they can come here. In the real world, even at night, they would vanish instantly.”
“So these ghosts come here to do business…” Chen Xiao still felt uneasy.
“These ghosts come from the Netherworld and can obtain many unique items from there, most of which are useful to us superpowered individuals. To be honest, we’re quite happy to have them here doing business.”
“…” Hearing Mo Changli’s words, Chen Xiao was completely speechless.
“And what about those hopping around?” Chen Xiao pointed at the human-like creatures hopping aimlessly on the street.
“That’s zombies,” Mo Changli said nonchalantly.
“Uh…” Chen Xiao’s heart skipped a beat. Could it be he had arrived in the legendary Ghost Street?
“Are they here to do business too?” Chen Xiao asked cautiously.

“Doing business? Making zombies do business?” Mo Changli’s eyes widened instantly as he stared at Chen Xiao in disbelief. “What a joke! With those pitiful amounts of brain matter zombies have, if we let them do business, won’t they even have to pay for the burial shrouds?”
Chen Xiao rolled his eyes and inwardly cursed Lin Tianchi. Lin Tianchi had only told him about the world of supernatural abilities but hadn’t mentioned that there were even zombies and ghosts here.
“Hehe, actually, all those who first awaken their abilities and come here act like you. You’ll get used to it in a few days,” Mo Changli said with a smile. “Come on, let’s go to the Supernatural Abilities Association first. It’s important to take care of official matters.”
