After a moment of silence, Qin Weiping was the first to speak. His voice kept shivering, "T-The Soul Shrine is broken… D-Did the t-thing inside… c-come out?"

No one replied to him as the answer to that question was obvious. They were unwilling to respond and didn't dare to think further as it'd scare them even more.

At this moment, it seemed as if terror had taken over them.

The face of the Shaman who spoke before went pale as he asked, "Shaman Nan Kui, you said that even the Foundation Establishment stage expert couldn't kill the evil spirit and could only seal it?"

Nan Kui didn't even dare to move due to the anxiety, "That's for a Foundation Establishment stage expert, as for us…"

Though he didn't continue with his words, everyone understood it clearly.

How could they handle a thing which was sealed 10 ft under a temple to suppress it?

Everyone's gaze fell on the broken Soul Shrine on the ground. They looked at the black liquid oozing out along with the cold vapors.

Black clouds had covered the sky before anyone realized it, instantly screening off the bright moon. Everything turned dark as everyone's minds were filled with fear. They felt that an awful event was about to occur.

Whoosh!

"Look over there, what's that?"

Someone pointed towards a distant place in the darkness. It appeared as if something was swaying in the darkness and making its way towards them. Everyone there felt goosebumps at this moment.

A few of the men were daring enough to stare at it to determine its identity. However, they were welcomed by a chilling wind which had caused their eyes to flash white. Eyes were a window to the spirit, but now they had lost all expression in their eyes, just like a soulless corpse puppet.

Wherever the chilling wind passed by, the person's eyes all changed. It was like a viral infection. They said nothing and turned back, walking towards the outside.

The infection seemed to follow some kind of rule.

Qin Weiping, Bai Feng, Lin Jiadong, Li Chengfeng, Young Master Gu as well as all the shamans present, including Shaman Nan Kui and Little Master Teacher entered into the lobby in a dazed state.

An auction was going on inside.

The Tang family indeed possessed a gift for business. They'd never let off such a chance to make money. The things they took out to auction were all rare items, and even if they weren't rare, they were real antiques at the very least. Adding a legendary backstory as a combo package with it, they'd naturally sell at a nice price at the auction.

A compass was being auctioned right now. It had a pretty name, 'Tomb Locating Gold Finding Ghost Seeking Tool'. It seemed to be an antique from the Tang Dynasty era and the possession of a gold military officer. It was a top-notch ancient artifact. It could be used to capture ghosts in the hands of a Shaman but in the hands of ordinary men, it could only make an evil spirit retreat. It also acted as a ward to safeguard the house.

It was an omnipotent device.

"Alright, three million once!"

"Three million twice!"

In the year '08, 3,00,000 was enough to buy a house in Jiang City. Three million was a costly amount to the salaried class, and even for the high-society circles, it wasn't a small amount.

The Tang family was really something for selling a pile of scrap iron for 3 million.

"Three million thrice and it's sold!"

Applause followed after that. A middle-aged man had bought the compass. He appeared quite stout and wore a suit over his potbelly.

"Congrats, Director Wang!"

"Congrats!"

Director Wang's face was flushed with pride. He raised the cup of wine in his hand and gestured towards all the guests, downing the wine in a single cup, he then walked up to retrieve the compass. The scene of using three million to buy a worn-out tool was really something to behold.

Below, Ye Wenchen and the rest all looked at this with fascination. A three whole million was used to buy a tiny item, really a spendthrift style..

Lin Shu said, "Ah, when will I become a person like that."

His family's assets were just worth 20-30 million, and that was all of their family assets combined. Even his father was far away from spending 3 million to buy an item, let alone him.

After Director Wang stepped onto the stage, the staff member carefully handed the compass to him. Director Wang held it in his hand as if he was carrying a trophy cup. He even raised it up to display it towards everyone and then brought it closer to take a look at it.

The compass was made of bronze, and tiny letters were inscribed on top of it, all of them clustered together. A circular array was visible on it, with shrinking concentric circles. At the center of the compass was the core component, a needle.

Director Wang checked it and then asked, "Why isn't this needle moving?"

Typically, a compass needle would undoubtedly rotate and would rotate faster if it encounters a strange magnetic field.

The beautiful auctioneer gave a reply with a charming smile, "Director Wang, this is a genuine artifact. This needle will only move when a ghost appears!"

Director Wang shook it twice and felt something was wrong. There was a big dent on this compass, and it even had a crack on the compass glass, even the needle wasn't moving. He muttered to himself and couldn't refrain from asking, "This… isn't broken, right?"

The auctioneer still wore the same smile, "That's impossible! This is an ancient artifact, an absolute high-level item."

Director Wang said, "No matter what, the needle should at least turn… right?"

"Hey, it's moving!"

The compass in his hand which hadn't moved for so long started rotating all of a sudden.

Astonishment filled the face of the beautiful auctioneer. They had tested this compass, and that needle seemed fixed in place, refusing to move at all. Since it wasn't moving no matter what they tried, they had concluded that it was broken.

They were planning to renounce auctioning this item, but someone said that since it looked like a real ancient artifact, it'd convince people even if the needle didn't move.

"Wow, it's moving so fast."

The compass was shaking due to the needle's rotation. The auctioneer looked at it feeling doubtful, and her eyes opened wide. The needle on the compass was rotating at a breakneck speed, just like an electric fan.

"Didn't you say that this ancient compass will only move when a ghost appears?"

Everyone looked back towards the group of people who had just exited the inner hall. Qin Weiping, Bai Feng… each one of them entered the lobby. Their eyes were completely white without any pupils, and they barged into the crowd while ignoring everyone around them.

Wherever they went, just like a bacterial infection, they infected the surrounding persons. Even Director Wang's eyes flashed white. This phenomenon was occurring at speed visible to the naked eyes.

The eyes of all the people sitting there turned white. They stood up and then walked towards the outside.

Jiang Xiu was on the 2nd floor of the clubhouse. He stood by the French window. Tang Zhenshan and Tang Wenchong beside him were already shocked, "W-What's happening? A-Are they possessed?"

"Where are they going?"

Jiang Xiu downed a cup of liquor. This liquor was from Tang Zhenshan's personal collection, a 30-year-old Maotai with 70% purity. "To the Myriad Base City Plaza project's construction site."

Tang Zhenshan's expression morphed, "Is Mr. Jiang saying this is the work of the supernatural entity troubling the Myriad Base City Plaza project?"

Jiang Xiu declined to comment, just giving an indifferent smile as a response.

Tang Zhenshan said, "This Qin family is really inviting trouble. More than half of the officials of Jiang City are assembled here. Jiang City will be left in a mess if something bad happens to them."

Jiang Xiu laid down the cup in his hand, "Let's go take a look at the scene."

Tang Zhenshan and Tang Wenchong looked at each other, feeling a little timid. This matter was too strange, and they were unwilling to meddle with it. They were worried about getting possessed, but after thinking that Jiang Xiu was beside them, they concluded that such a thing won't happen.

It was already 11 PM now. The guests all came out of the clubhouse in a large crowd and left towards the construction site nearby to Belden in a zombie-like manner.

The construction site's gate was locked up due to the bizarre events. Qin Weiping, who was walking at the lead, used his bare arm to push down the iron gate somehow.

Looking at this, both the grandfather and grandson of the Tang family were left dumbstruck. Is he even human anymore?

After that, those people stepped on the iron gate and walked into the construction site.

"What are they trying to do?"

Tang Zhenshan and Tang Wenchong thought that some terrible event would occur, but the result was something entirely out of their expectations. After entering the site, all of them lied down on the ground and then stopped moving, as if they were sleeping.

Jiang Xiu said, "Have you brought the rooster I asked you to prepare?"

"Throw it inside!"

Tang Wenchong threw the rooster inside the site. The rooster tried to flutter in the air after breaking free from the arm and then cried out, "Crrooowwww…."

The rooster's cry had awoken all the person's sleeping on the ground.

They all stood up in alarm one after one.

"Where is this place?"

"How did I come here?"

Qin Weiping crawled up from the ground in a rush. He naturally recognized his construction site, which caused his face to go pale.
