   Highly recommend the first book: ① Similar to "Mysterious Resurrection," ghosts cannot be killed; only ghosts can fight ghosts. The male protagonist is an ordinary person with no special abilities. ② The male protagonist is born with a pair of ghost eyes and survives in a nightmare space. ③ The male protagonist loses his fear and is parasitized by a ghost face, achieving a mutually beneficial relationship: he feeds the ghost face ghosts, and the ghost face provides medicine; the male protagonist takes the medicine to become stronger.

    I've listened to and read this book for over a hundred hours straight. It's incredibly logical and definitely a great supernatural novel. It's already over a million words long. The protagonist doesn't have a system or become invincible. The beginning is slow-paced, but the story becomes tightly connected and interlocking in the middle and later stages. The premise is similar to a mystical resurgence, but the supporting characters are very well-developed. The protagonist relies entirely on his supernatural abilities (which come at a price) and his own intelligence to carve out his own path in the supernatural world, starting as a working-class person. Perhaps the slow start is why it hasn't become more popular. The author isn't feeling well right now, so I hope everyone can support the author and not let their hard work go to waste. 🥺

The most exciting part is that as the protagonist's strength increases, he quickly climbs to the top of the world rankings, becoming one of the strongest. The book's concept of the ghost puzzle system is also novel; each puzzle piece represents a terrifying ability, such as [Ghost Touching the Head], which can instantly dismember a person. In the process of becoming stronger, the protagonist also gradually faces the philosophical question of "whether he is human or ghost," making the plot quite captivating.
