"The White Tiger leaps over the ravine!"

"A whistling sound of wind!"

"Cut and pounce with ease!"

"Dominating the mountains!"

"The tiger turns its head!"

In the newly rented room, Chu Ming brandished his ghost-head knife, the blade slicing through the air with a hissing sound.

There are many versions of the Five Tigers Severing the Gate Saber. The Five Tigers Severing the Gate Saber that Chu Ming learned follows the path of "momentum," acquiring the domineering momentum of a tiger rather than the exquisite skill of the saber technique.

Many versions of the Five Tigers Breaking the Gate Saber have fifty or sixty moves, but Chu Ming's version only has five. Apart from the last move, Fierce Tiger Turns Back, the first four moves are all one-way trips, fierce and unparalleled.

Only the fifth move, "When the Way is exhausted, change," involves three parts offense and seven parts defense. "The fierce tiger does not turn back, but if it does, it will kill." It is similar in principle to the "Regretful Dragon" move of the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms in the metal-type martial arts.

From the moment he made up his mind to hunt ghosts, Chu Ming began to plan. This rented house was also part of his plan. Dealing with ghosts and monsters could not be done by simply forcing it; many things needed to be considered. Many things could not be done at home, so he specially rented this house.

After finishing the final move, "Tiger Turns Back," Chu Ming sheathed his sword, sat down slowly, and placed the Ghost Head Blade horizontally on his thigh. In his mind, he practiced the Crystal Lotus Visualization Technique, imagining himself as a crystal full of impurities. With each breath, he became clearer and more luminous, eventually transforming into a flawless crystal lotus.

As the visualization method was activated, Chu Ming's mind gradually calmed down.

Chu Ming came across this sentence in some book: "When faced with important matters, one must calm one's mind."

What he was about to do was a matter of life and death, and he needed to calm his mind.

In ancient times, people would burn incense and bathe to seek peace of mind. Chu Ming, on the other hand, would first wield his wild sword to express his inner madness, and then guard his original state to gradually restore clarity and tranquility.

Once his mind had completely calmed down, Chu Ming opened the system panel.

This is Chu Ming's current attribute.

Chu Ming allocated the last two source points to the One Qi Child Skill. He had the special effect of basic martial body, so his martial arts training was very fast. In a short time, he raised the Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada and the Five Tigers to Break the Gate Saber to more than 20 levels, which provided Chu Ming with a little strength and a little agility respectively.

However, cultivating internal strength is a slow and gradual process. Even with the boost from his basic martial arts physique, Chu Ming only increased his level by two in a week.

It would take an unknown amount of time to master the One Qi Child Skill by simply accumulating experience over time. If possible, Chu Ming would also like to master the martial arts first. However, the increasingly frequent supernatural events lately have made Chu Ming realize that his time is running out.

Taking a deep breath, Chu Ming slowly stood up, put the ghost-head knife into a tennis bag, picked up the bag, and went out without hesitation.

Fengyuan Building is located in the High-tech Development Zone in the west of Nanyang City.

This is a planned area of ​​the city, with many unfinished high-rise buildings. Apart from construction teams, few people usually come here.

The Fengyuan Building had changed owners several times over the past five years, and construction was finally halted a year ago, leaving it an unfinished building.

According to rumors circulating in the city, the first owner of Fengyuan Building was said to have defaulted on wages, which led to a worker jumping off the building. After that, rumors of a haunting spread.

From then on, Fengyuan Building was frequently involved in accidents, which even affected the business of the owner behind it.

Every boss who took over Fengyuan Building later experienced inexplicable business problems until a year ago, when no one dared to take it over anymore.

In the business district, the Fengyuan Building is a household name.

But in the middle of the night, a man wearing a trench coat arrived at the Fengyuan Building.

The man in the trench coat, named Bai Lang, is an outdoor adventurer and a mystery novelist. He often explores places that are considered eerie and terrifying by ordinary people in order to satisfy his adventurous spirit and gather material for his writing.

His footprints can be found in many famously inauspicious places.

As for actually encountering strange things or evil spirits, it's 9102 now, the world is materialistic, and everything is just hearsay.

In his view, those so-called eerie legends were nothing but rumors. After all, he had been to so many strange places and was still alive and well.

The weather isn't very good tonight. The sky is overcast and you can't see the stars or the moon. The weather has suddenly turned cold these past few days, and the wind is quite strong tonight, giving you a chill.

Under the cover of night, the Fengyuan Building, dimly lit, resembles a giant monster crawling on the ground. The wind, passing through the numerous doors and windows of the building, transforms into a series of ghostly howls. Combined with the legendary nature of the Fengyuan Building itself, this adds an even more eerie atmosphere to the place.

Even though he knew that there were no supernatural evils in the world, a terrifying atmosphere still lingered in Bai Lang's heart.

Soon, Bai Lang had reached the foot of the Fengyuan Building. Here, the light from the streetlights had dimmed, and the dark and deep corridors looked even more terrifying, as if they led to hell.

Looking at the dark corridor, listening to the piercing wind, and feeling the cold wind blowing against him, Bai Lang, though naturally brave, couldn't help but feel a chill run down his spine.

He didn't pay any attention to it, taking it as just a normal psychological reaction. In a materialistic world, how could there really be evil things? he thought.

As an adventure enthusiast and mystery novelist, this is exactly the feeling he craves; in his view, this "fear" is more likely to stimulate his inspiration!

Bai Lang has studied recent trends and found that topics related to the supernatural and mysterious are becoming increasingly prevalent.

This is a favorable opportunity. If he seizes it and incorporates similar elements into his mystery novels, his lukewarm mystery novels may become an instant hit, leading him to the pinnacle of his life!

Fear! Of course I'm afraid! In this kind of environment, no one would be unafraid to be alone here.

But his adventurous spirit and desire for instant fame drove Bai Lang to overcome his fear.

"Fengyuan Building has seventeen floors, but legend has it that every midnight, a staircase leading to the eighteenth floor appears in Fengyuan Building. Eighteen floors, eighteen levels of hell, what a coincidence!" The man in the trench coat held a powerful flashlight in one hand and a notebook in the other, flipping through some information.

The notebook was filled with information he had collected about the Fengyuan Building.

As the collector, he had naturally seen all of these materials, but viewing them in this environment, compared to viewing them at home, had a completely different effect.

"Initially, regarding the layout of this building, according to some feng shui masters, the terrain here is like two dragons vying for a pearl, and the Fengyuan Building is that dragon pearl, making it incredibly auspicious!"

"When the first owner started building Fengyuan Building, the business grew rapidly in a short period of time, and he was incredibly lucky. But after that worker in red jumped off the building at midnight, the business took a sharp turn for the worse and almost went bankrupt."

"In Feng Shui, this is called 'things reaching their extreme will reverse.' The worker who jumped off the building was just a trigger. As the saying goes, the more wealth a person accumulates, the more negative energy the earth retains. The more wealth and status a person has, the heavier the negative energy becomes. Eventually, the earth can no longer contain the negative energy, and it will burst forth, leading to endless misfortune!"

"After the worker jumped, it didn't cause much of an impact at first, and construction of the building continued as usual. But seven days later, some workers said they saw a red shadow wandering in the building, and many workers heard the sound of a hammer hitting steel bars!"

"At first, many people didn't believe it, and the rumors only spread within a small circle. But as more and more strange things happened at the construction site—light bulbs kept flashing, tap water suddenly turned into blood—although no one died, it terrified many workers, who went on strike. That's how the rumors of the haunted Fengyuan Building started to spread!"

"After that, the Fengyuan Building changed construction teams and owners several times, but all sorts of strange things continued to happen, causing the construction of the Fengyuan Building to be indefinitely delayed, until the last owner went bankrupt and jumped off the building, leaving it as an unfinished building!"

Bai Lang climbed the stairs while looking at the contents of his notebook.

It has to be said that watching these things in this environment is ten times more stimulating than usual; an invisible sense of fear almost overwhelms the white waves!
