In the terms of a transmigrant, it’s my unique golden finger.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu remained noncommittal. “Is that the Ghost Hand?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie fell silent for a moment, then nodded. “Yes. I don’t know how it attached to me, but I remember the first time I picked up the Fuxi Sword, the Ghost Hand activated.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Along with it appeared those two sealing rings just now—destroyed.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is that really all?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu gave Lin Lie a meaningful glance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sensing Lin Yu’s gaze, Lin Lie’s heart tightened, and he hurriedly said: “Brother Yu, it’s not that I won’t be honest—I’ve told you everything I can. As for the rest...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie paused, his face showing distress.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he has something he can’t reveal?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu nodded thoughtfully, then changed the subject. “So according to this, the file you uploaded to the group is the Ghost Warrior’s skill set?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie answered honestly. “Yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>No wonder it’s so valuable—the Ghost Warrior’s power is a whole new system!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu nodded inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a moment’s thought, he opened his palm, revealing the crimson fragment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This is a crystallization of ghostly power—only usable with a Ghost Hand.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Is that so?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie stared eagerly at Lin Yu. “Then what do you mean...?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu smiled. “It’s useless to me—I’ll return it to you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie was overjoyed. “Thank you, Brother Yu!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu shook his head. “Don’t celebrate yet. Given your level of integration with the Ghost Hand, I only stripped the ghostly power—the consciousness still sleeps within your arm. Use it cautiously.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I understand!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie nodded solemnly, then took the crimson fragment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The next instant, the item panel popped up in his mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Kazan’s Power Fragment】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Quality: Golden Epic】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Type: Consumable\u002FMaterial】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Description: A fragment of the power of Kazan, the God of Destruction and Soul of the Blade, stripped from a Sword Soul who abandoned ghostly power—high purity】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>【Use: Can be consumed to release Ghost Spirit skills, or used as material to craft equipment (this item can be obtained by killing Kazan or Kazan Syndrome patients)】\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s Kazan’s power fragment?!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie’s pupils contracted—he finally understood why his Ghost Hand was so powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ordinary Ghost Hands are influenced by the Ninth Apostle—Bakal, the Rage Dragon King—but his is different; its ferocity rivals that of a Berserker suffering from Kazan Syndrome.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Combined with Lin Yu’s earlier words, the chaotic consciousness sleeping in his Ghost Hand might be Kazan’s fragment—or even his true self.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, that’s just one possibility. DNF has been running for years, and retcons are common—Kazan’s lore has been revised repeatedly. Who knows which version he actually encountered?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu floated silently in midair, carefully observing Lin Lie’s changing expression.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Though he didn’t know what exactly Lin Lie was hiding, he could tell the chaotic consciousness was tied to another world—perhaps a hidden backdoor planted there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And its manifestation surely wasn’t just the Ghost Hand—it must at least be a game system.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that were true, Lin Lie’s unspoken secret made sense. Systems like that usually have bizarre rules that can’t be revealed to outsiders.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Violating them could mean severe punishment—or outright erasure. Standard procedure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu was confident he could protect Lin Lie’s life even from erasure—but only if he returned him to his inner universe. In the Marvel world, it wouldn’t work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“For now, keep an eye on this kid. Later, find a chance to invite him into my inner universe...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lin Yu thought this, he waved his hand, instantly teleporting both of them into the hotel.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Back in the room, Lin Yu pulled a jade pendant from his robe and handed it to Lin Lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s this?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie stared at the pendant, puzzled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu waved his hand, retrieving the fragments of the sealing rings he’d collected. “When I stripped the ghostly power, I accidentally destroyed your sealing rings. I gathered all the shards, but I can’t replicate this technique yet.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Until you fully repair the rings, use this jade pendant to suppress the ghostly consciousness.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie understood at once and quickly reached out to take the pendant.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment his fingers touched it, streams of white light surged forth, covering his right arm and restoring the pale, phantom-effect limb to its original state.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Excellent item!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie’s eyes brightened, and he thanked Lin Yu again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Don’t be so formal—I’m just making up for my own mistake...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu smiled. “Enough talk. Let’s go.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Go?” Lin Lie blinked. “Where?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The New York Sanctum.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu replied as if it were obvious, then added with a smile: “Don’t worry—this time, neither the Sorcerer Supreme nor the New York Sanctum will turn you away...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>177A Brick Street, Lower Manhattan, New York.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie stood on the crowded street, staring blankly at the ancient temple before him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was the New York Sanctum of Kamar-Taj, nestled in the heart of the bustling city, surrounded by modern skyscrapers, yet preserved exactly as it had been a thousand years ago.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He’d passed by it countless times—and never noticed it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Clearly, the Sorcerer Supreme had deliberately concealed it from him before...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What are you thinking?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu’s voice came from beside him, pulling Lin Lie from his daze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He scratched his head and smiled. “Nothing. Just wondering—why did the first Sorcerer Supreme, Agamotto, build the three Sanctums precisely in London, New York, and Hong Kong?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>London and Hong Kong were understandable, but New York has only existed for a few hundred years.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A thousand years ago, this land was a wild, primitive wasteland—even the three great Mesoamerican civilizations hadn’t formed yet. There was no way to build a Sanctum then.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“What’s strange about that?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu glanced at him. “With Agamotto’s power, peering into the future was basic. Not just New York a thousand years from now—even your visit here now might have been foreseen by him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is that really possible?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie blinked, then asked: “What about you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“...”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu laughed, turning to gaze at the New York Sanctum. “That depends on how strong he really is.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, Lin Lie fell thoughtful, sensing an intense, almost arrogant confidence in those words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When he came back to himself, he stepped forward on his own, arriving before the Sanctum’s gates.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Passersby hurried past him without glancing his way—as if some force made them completely ignore the ancient temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could knock, the main gate slowly opened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Daoist priest, with long beard and clearly East Asian features, stood there, calmly watching Lin Lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Lin Lie froze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before he could speak, the Daoist priest stepped aside and extended his arm inward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Master of the Fuxi Sword, please enter—the Ancient One has been waiting for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Lie’s heart tightened, and he turned to look at Lin Yu.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that moment, Lin Yu was studying the Daoist priest with interest—especially his outstretched arm, severed cleanly at the wrist, leaving only a withered stump.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he remembered correctly, this bearded Daoist priest appeared in the movie too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His name was Hamir, and his relationship with the Ancient One resembled that of Wong and Doctor Strange before the snap—a trusted aide.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the comics, Hamir was Wong’s father—but he didn’t know if that was still true in this world...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Yu mused with quiet interest.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the same time, Hamil, seeing no movement from Lin Lie, frowned and followed his gaze forward, only then noticing Lin Yu behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…Huh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Why is there another person?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>(End of Chapter)\u003C\u002Fp>",1493,"2026-06-20T00:29:28.871Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","61bcb659386c25e86ce020d68fad448d2b1ecb6c029bf675d43022945de97a72","the-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-chapter-130","the-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-chapter-128",206,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fthe-dimensional-demon-god-s-chat-group-cover.jpg"]
