The thousand talismans were completely snatched up in less than ten minutes, and as time went on, the whole Dubian Town knew about it by the afternoon.

According to the latest trending topics list for Dubian Town released by Wantong Trading Market, the million-dollar bounty mission has risen rapidly, jumping directly to third place.

The second most frequent cause of death is the bizarre deaths that have occurred in recent days.

The first place goes to the upcoming Pokémon Championship.

The night in Dubian Town tonight is no longer as quiet as it was a few days ago; instead, it is brightly lit, and the streets are filled with practitioners constantly running around.

"Young Master, the entire south of the town has been captured. We might not be able to squeeze in." At the corner of the long street, a richly dressed young master stood there. In front of him stood three cultivators at the Spirit King realm. The one who spoke was a middle-aged man on the far left.

"Young Master, Yihong Tower has also fallen. There are at least a thousand cultivators lying in ambush all around." The Spirit King realm cultivator in the middle also spoke up.

The young man frowned and looked to the far right.

The remaining Spirit King realm cultivator, seeing his young master looking at him, quickly replied, "Young master, of the eighteen newly built and expanded streets in Dubian Town, apart from the one with the Mysterious Bookstore, the rest have all been taken over by those cultivators; it's impossible to squeeze in."

The young man frowned even more deeply and couldn't help but ask, "Didn't the Wantong Trading Market only sell a thousand talismans today? Why are so many people out catching ghosts in the middle of the night?"

Upon hearing this, the cultivator on the far right replied, "I also found it a bit strange at first, so I eavesdropped on some of the cultivators' conversations and discovered that they all wanted to reap the benefits without lifting a finger."

The young man was somewhat puzzled.

The cultivator on the right continued to explain, "Actually, it's about waiting for those cultivators with talismans to make the vengeful spirits appear, and then openly robbing them!"

The reason why everyone is unable to kill the vengeful ghosts is simply because they cannot see them or hit them. Once the talisman makes the vengeful ghosts appear, they are no more powerful than the low-level spirit beasts on the outskirts of Nine Heavens Mountain to the cultivators of Dubian Town. They can be easily killed with a sword or knife.

However, there were only a thousand talismans available, but the reward was too tempting—one million Spirit Crystal.

As a result, these first practitioners who obtained the talismans became unlucky and became the target of many other practitioners.

However, no one knows what these thousand people look like, but that doesn't matter! Since you bought the talismans, you're supposed to come out and catch ghosts, right? We'll just wait.

And so the nights in Dubian Town became what they are now, with all the streets and alleys occupied by cultivators lying in wait.

Places like Zhennan and Yihong Tower, where ghosts have been said to have appeared, were packed with people.

Upon hearing this, the young master's brow furrowed deeply. He raised his hand, looked at the talisman in it, and shook his head, saying, "It probably won't work today. Let's go back and try again in a couple of days when there are more talismans available in the market."

"Yes!" the three subordinates replied in unison.

"There's movement!" Suddenly, a cry of surprise came from afar. The young master was startled and ran towards the direction of the sound, followed by three others.

A main street was packed with people. In the middle, a vengeful ghost was trapped inside a circle of light formed by Spiritual Power. The ghost kept Tackle the circle in an attempt to escape, but to no avail. Each time Tackle, it was met with a counterattack from the circle, and the Spiritual Power corroded its body, causing the ghost to howl in pain.

Two rows of people stood on either side of the vengeful ghost.

They are the Lord of the Burning City Manor and its high-ranking members, and the Lord of the Heavenly Fiend Pavilion and its high-ranking members.

The expressions on the faces of those from the Heavenly Fiend Pavilion were clearly not good. This talisman was something a high-ranking member of the Heavenly Fiend Pavilion had luckily snagged today. They originally planned to use this talisman to kill a vengeful ghost and obtain Orange Fragment to exchange for one million Spirit Crystal. However, when they came out at night, they found that things were a bit out of their control, with cultivators lying in wait everywhere to snatch up vengeful ghosts.

The high-ranking official panicked and rushed back to find the sect leader. Then, a group of people escorted him to hunt down the vengeful ghost. They thought that with so many people protecting them, no one would be so foolish as to steal their vengeful ghost. But to their surprise, someone still stepped forward, and it was their enemy, the Burning City Manor.

The two major sects overlap in some trade activities, and friction is inevitable due to competition. Therefore, the relationship between the two sects is not good, and is even hostile.

The Burning City Manor is clearly telling the Heavenly Fiend Pavilion that they are determined to seize this vengeful ghost!

In other words, there is no possibility of negotiation.

"Hiss~"

At this moment, the vengeful ghost, which was enveloped by the halo, suddenly let out a scream, and then turned into a wisp of black smoke and drifted away into the air.

'Da~'

With a crisp sound, an orange shard fell to the ground.

"Phew~"

A breeze swept by, and all around fell silent.

Everyone's eyes were fixed on the Orange Fragment, their gazes filled with greed.

If you get it, it's a million!

If one million can tempt a powerful figure at the Spirit Venerable realm or above, then it would be Captivate for cultivators below the Spirit Venerable realm.

One million Spirit Crystal, if converted into spirit artifacts, would be worth approximately one-third of a typical seventh-tier spirit artifact.

In other words, you can buy an ordinary seventh-tier spirit weapon for three million Spirit Crystal.

If we were to use cows as the unit of measurement... then the whole world would probably be full of cows...

Such a great Captivate is that all you need to do is buy a talisman worth one hundred Spirit Crystal and then hunt down a vengeful ghost with the cultivation level of a Spirit Master Stage Five to gain a profit of one million Spirit Crystal.

This is practically free for everyone.

Now, a million is lying on the ground, easily within reach.

"Whoosh~"

The Heavenly Fiend Pavilion made the first move; a Phantom Organization flashed by, and his hand was already close to touching the inner Orange Fragment.

"Whoosh~"

A sword beam shot out, directly striking the hand of the Heavenly Fiend Pavilion Master.

Left with no other choice, the leader of the Heavenly Fiend Pavilion had to change course halfway and conceal his true intentions.

"Bang~"

With the explosion of the sword's edge striking the ground, the Orange Fragment were propelled into the air by the powerful airflow.

"Swish~swish~swish"

Countless Phantom Organization, imbued with Spiritual Power, flew into the air, attempting to Snatch the Orange Fragment.

"All of you, charge at this Pavilion Master! We must retrieve the fragment today!" The Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Fiend Pavilion ascended to the heavens like a shooting star towards the Orange Fragment. He disappeared from sight, but his voice reached the ears of the sect's higher-ups behind him.

With the sect leader giving the order, the sect's higher-ups naturally didn't hesitate any longer and flew off into the air one by one.

At this point, the Lord of the Burning City Manor had no choice but to lead a group of people to join the battle Snatch the Orange Fragment.

Instantly, the place became Martial Arts Field. However, since everyone knew it was in a town, no one took out their spiritual weapons. Even during the fight, everyone controlled their Spiritual Power and did not unleash any large-scale martial arts techniques to damage the surrounding buildings.

Even so, it couldn't stop the large number of people involved in the Snatch. A few were knocked away here, and a few more were knocked away there. It was okay if they landed on the street, but it would be really embarrassing if they crashed into someone's house.

Then a chain reaction began; the number of people involved kept increasing, and the situation became somewhat out of control. In the end, no one even knew where the Orange Fragment had gone.

The same thing happened elsewhere; that night, the entire Dubian Town was in chaos, as if a war had broken out.

Such a big commotion naturally alarmed a high-ranking official, Zhou Wuji, the mayor of Dubian Town.

The powerful Spirit Emperor made his appearance, and a strong aura of the Spirit Emperor directly enveloped the entire Dubian Town. All cultivators who used Spiritual Power at that moment were suppressed by this aura.

In an instant, Dubian Town became quiet.
