"Soone obtained the Mysterious Object that harbors the grudges of the dead, and only when such Mysterious Objects are moved from their original places do the lost souls and fierce ghosts bound by these grudges spread out uncontrollably."
"How is this possible, though? They were just five ordinary people, how did they manage to survive in the hands of the Earth-bound Spirit?"
"Could it really be that soone is fated for greatness, or is it just sheer luck?"
The woman who had activated her Spirit dium capabilities flashed a hint of surprise in her eyes. She had thought those people were completely hopeless and would die together on the second basent level, but unexpectedly, a miracle had indeed occurred.
"Since they’ve got the item, it’s our turn to reap the benefits now," Crow said, his voice deep and tinged with excitent.
"Hold on, we can’t approach the building yet."
A radiant glow shone from the woman’s eyes. In her line of sight, countless Vengeful Ghosts drifted around the nearby collapsed building. Many of them noticed her presence and rushed towards her, but they quickly dissipated in mid-air.
Without the Mysterious Object to sustain them, these beings couldn’t last long and would soon vanish.
This polluted world not only hindered people’s cultivation, but it also protected the world’s inhabitants indirectly.
Otherwise, after the Sky Tipping incident, ghosts and ferocious creatures would have been rampant worldwide.
"Soone’s coming out."
Suddenly, Crow’s gaze shifted toward the main entrance of the derelict building.
In the darkness, accompanied by exhausted panting, a figure ran out frantically.
"Help, help ," the person cried out.
"It’s that woman nad Liu Yan."
Crow imdiately recognized the person: "She’s actually the first one to escape alive? I guess she didn’t venture into that core area. That’s good, not being greedy increases the chances of survival. Wait, sothing’s not right. What’s on her?"
To an ordinary person, Liu Yan appeared to be simply running, but through Crow’s eyes, a cold, stiff, and grueso corpse was seen extending a twisted hand, grabbing her ankle, and being dragged along as she ran, while its body was gradually vanishing as if rging into hers.
As the ghost’s form slowly faded, the human vitality in Liu Yan was visibly dwindling.
"She’s been possessed by a ghost."
The tall woman beside him spoke coldly: "This ghost is different from other lost souls and resentful spirits. This creature has gained so strength and knows how to seek reincarnation through a living body. If it succeeds, Liu Yan will turn into sothing known as a Walking Corpse. We must not let her leave alive, we have to kill her imdiately. If we let her go, once a Walking Corpse begins cultivation, that would be horrifying."
No sooner had she finished her sentence than her eyes glead slightly once more.
Eye witness!
All of a sudden, Liu Yan’s eyes rolled back, she lost her balance, and collapsed directly to the ground, then blood flowed from all her orifices, and she died on the spot.
"Stop!"
At that mont, an angry shout rang out, and a car rushed over, its occupants attempting to stop what was happening, but it seed too late.
Before the car could co to a full stop, a figure agily leapt out of the vehicle.
"I’ve been following you people for a long ti. I didn’t expect you to run to the Ruined District to kill people, thinking that no investigator in Tianchang City dares to deal with you outlaws?" the man walked forward angrily, his face filled with rage.
"Investigator, Wang Jian? When did he start watching us?" Crow’s face shifted slightly.
"Since we’ve been discovered, let’s deal with him."
The tall woman’s expression remained cold, clearly unfazed by having just killed soone.
"Have you activated your Spirit dium already? You are young, yet your cultivation is so gifted. Who are you?" Wang Jian sized up the woman in front of him and asked.
"My na is Ning Wu, and I am a Cultivator, not a criminal. I had a reason for killing just now. That woman was possessed by a fierce ghost. Even if I hadn’t intervened, she wouldn’t have lived for more than three days, and letting her leave would have only brought more trouble to the district. Wang Jian, as an investigator, you wouldn’t want ghosts and deaths in your jurisdiction either," Ning Wu explained.
"You say she was possessed by a ghost, and I should just believe that?" Wang Jian eyed her: "Your accomplices lured away three groups of people to the old city district, the first group being fifteen, the second ten, and today the third group of five. None of these people has been seen again after their disappearance. Just because of this point, I have the right to wipe you out right now."
Ning Wu said, "In this world today, it’s normal to pay people to do dangerous jobs. I haven’t forced anyone... oh no."
Suddenly.
She realized sothing and swiftly turned to look back toward the direction of the building.
"Bang!"
Along with the sound of breaking glass, a mud-covered, highly disheveled Wang Hu erged from a window. He was carrying a dry corpse and then, without looking back, ran off in the opposite direction.
"Wang Hu, where are you going?" Crow reacted and shouted loudly.
"Looks like he’s not satisfied with the two million, thinking of taking the item and running, huh. Greedy, but still naive," Ning Wu remarked.
Her long legs suddenly exerted force, and she swiftly left her spot.
Her form quickly swept across the ground, drawing a long black shadow in her wake.
Her speed was incredibly fast, beyond normal human comprehension.
