All along, everyone only fought against the one Sha. As for the second one, it still hovered near the ceiling, staring at the ongoing battle below. It was shaped like a kite, having a t body. And, it seemed fragile, moving ording to the breeze generated from the fight below.


    At first nce, it didn''t seem to possess any power, seeming weak. But, the sheer fear it could induce in the hearts of others was enough proof that it was tremendously powerful. At present, on seeing that it was stationary in the ce, no one bothered to attack it.


    A part of the crowd just stared at it, nning to act the moment it moved. As for the rest, they were fighting against the other Sha that used the ground to its advantage. This was shaped like a serpent with humanoid arms, numbering almost 20.


    So, it gave it a lot of avenues to attack. Every hand was used to swipe at its foes, sending them flying. Whenever a couple of Palm Projections flew its way, it used its hands to m straight into it, receiving damage in the process.


    But, it didn''t try to remain standing in the same ce for long, flying through the air as it swerved through the crowd, just continuing to hit the people. The number of injured people did increase, but the number of incapacitated people was just two.


    They seemed to be from the merchant organisations and didn''t have enoughbat experience to react timely. As for the other Harmonisers, even though they were attacked, all they did was crash into the boxes covering the seats.


    They didn''t suffer harsh injuries, quickly getting back up to their feet tobat the Sha. The Serpentine Sha hadn''t used its signature ability yet, so all Harmonisers were on guard against it. While attacking, they just used Palm Projections to probe its foundation while keeping a tally of its strength and Ghost Qi reserves.


    They nned to use heavier attackster and when a chance presented itself. As the Serpentine Sha seeped into the ground, everyone became alert.


    Standing near the edge of the auction house was a lone Harmoniser, having a petite body, looking young, like a child. He was currently trembling in fear, jittery as his legs were on the verge of losing bnce.


    He was positioned away from the rest of the people. And, it seemed he hadn''t thought to take cover among the crowd or just escape from the ce, rooted to the spot in shock. And, due to his small stature, and the fact that he was hidden from the views of others by one of the boxes, no one managed to nce his way.


    Rather, everyone was busy observing the ground in order to react against the Serpentine Sha.


    "No…no…help me…" The child muttered with a trembling voice, hoarse, almost on the verge of despair. A faint tinge of Fear Qi radiated from his body as he seemed to be captured further and further by his feelings of fear.


    And right at this time, having opened its mouth, the Serpentine Sha emerged from the ground, swallowing him from the leg up, intending to swallow him whole and use him as a battery to continuously generate Fear Qi for it to absorb.


    But right when its mouth passed the boy''s shoulder, his hands shone with a dense violet radiance as he mped his hands on the inner walls of its body. At the same time, his legs too shone with violet radiance as they emitted blinding arcs of lightning.


    The lightning coalesced through the Serpentine Sha''s body, causing it to scream as patches of its body vaporised instantly. And, thanks to the sh of the two Elemental—Ghost and Lightning—Qi the Sha was unable to extricate itself from his hold.


    After all, he was pressing on its internals using his palms radiating Lightning Qi. And just like that, the boyughed as he continued to unleash a torrent of lightning bolts, singeing the Serpentine Sha, bellowing with an authoritative tone, "What are the lot of you doing? Hurry up and attack it already! Everyone that has ess to Lightning Qi, attack it now."


    Those around him immediately stepped aside, allowing for the volunteers toe forward. The ones that arrived were those from the Vi n, Harmonisers using Lightning Qi. They converged around the Serpentine Sha, mming Palm Projections one after another.


    One of them retracted his hand, craning his hand to the back while pointing his index and middle finger forward, causing them to shine with a dense violet radiance. And, followed by a bellow, he thrust forward with all his strength, unleashing a thick lightning bolt that arched and mmed dead centre onto the Serpentine Sha, causing it to scream.


    Pranic Art—Double Finger Projection!


    As for the boy in its mouth, his entire body wasyered by Lightning Qi, protecting him against all the Lightning Qi attacks. This way, he continued to damage it.


    But right this time, the Kite Sha mmed into the ground, unleashing a wave of force that sent everyone flying. It thenshed out with its tail, hitting the head of the boy in the Serpent Sha''s mouth, suffering damage in the process while sending him flying.


    The boy crashed into a box and dented it. He cursed as he stood up, spitting out a mouthful of blood before charging at the two Sha without an ounce of fear. At the start, he had been acting like a scaredy-cat to lure them, disying his sheer acting prowess where he could even mimic fear to the extent Fear Qi was produced in his body.


    He had used his petite body to his advantage. But in actuality, he was an old man that was nearing retirement.


    n Head of Burfuna Vi n!


    He immediately took the lead, disying his expert prowess, andbated against the two Sha. Even though he suffered from many attacks, most of which sent him flying, he always used his abilities to redact the damage and spring up almost instantly.
