The Golden House was barely five square meters.
Smaller than even a typical bathroom in a house.
Yet the cost of constructing it reached an astonishing several billion.
It rivaled the most luxurious villas in Jiangcheng City.
This alone showed how astronomical the expenses were for dealing with Paranormal Incidents.
As Qin Feng entered, the golden door immediately closed behind him.
This way, even if the attempt to bind the Malevolent Ghost failed, it would still remain trapped inside the Golden House, unable to escape.
He walked over to a long, rectangular golden box—where the ghost hands were currently imprisoned.
Qin Feng examined the box closely.
Its central opening was tightly sealed with multiple layers of golden foil, ensuring excellent containment.
Of course, the safest approach would have been to weld it completely shut, leaving no cracks, making it impossible for the Malevolent Ghost to escape.
That would be the most secure method.
Then, he extended both hands, carefully peeling off the paper-thin golden foil,
layer by layer.
As he prepared to attempt to bind the Malevolent Ghost, a slight tension welled up in Qin Feng's heart.
This was a Malevolent Ghost—a terrifying entity that could kill on contact.
Even with the system protecting him from failure, facing such a thing up close for the first time was enough to make anyone feel fear.
Qin Feng, however, was only a little tense.
His mental fortitude was far superior to most people's.
Of course, this was thanks to his training and the system.
As the golden foil was fully removed, traces of Paranormal Energy began seeping out from the gaps in the golden box.
A chilling aura blanketed the entire Golden House, creating a suffocating pressure that made it feel like one couldn't breathe.
Szz!
Szz!
Szz!
The lights began to flicker, as if on the verge of going out.
Something dreadful was about to happen.
Yet amid this terrifying atmosphere, Qin Feng remained completely unaffected—even the corners of his mouth slightly curved upward.
"Ding! You've absorbed 20 points of Paranormal Energy, converted into 20 Detention Points!"
"Ding! You've absorbed 30 points..."
"Ding! You've absorbed..."
As expected, the closer he got to the Malevolent Ghost, the more Paranormal Energy he absorbed.
Even with the golden box as a barrier, it far surpassed what he could absorb from the outskirts of a Paranormal Incident.
Qin Feng was quietly overjoyed.
Before, when absorbing from the edges of a Paranormal Incident, he'd only get one or two points at a time.
Now, he was getting ten times that amount.
Naturally, it felt incredibly satisfying.
At this moment, he even had the urge to just stay there and keep absorbing the Paranormal Energy.
However, those outside had no idea what Qin Feng was doing.
Professor Lin quickly pressed the button near the door and urged him through the speaker: "Qin Feng, open the golden box and begin the taming process.
If you wait too long, the Paranormal Energy in your body will begin to dissipate.
It might become impossible to control it then!"
Qin Feng sighed internally—what a shame!
Such an easy opportunity to absorb Paranormal Energy was now gone.
But to avoid raising suspicion, he had no choice but to open the golden box.
After all, once he became a Ghost Tamer, he could openly enter Paranormal Incident zones—why worry about not having Paranormal Energy to absorb?
The next moment, Qin Feng pressed the button on the golden box.
Click!
The box opened instantly.
Inside were two ghastly pale, shriveled hands—covered in corpse spots, eerie and horrifying.
Flick!
Suddenly, the lights went out completely.
Fortunately, outside light still filtered through the frosted golden glass, so the small room wasn't plunged into total darkness.
Outside, everyone held their breath, staring at Qin Feng without blinking.
"Ding! You've absorbed 100 points of Paranormal Energy, converted into 100 Detention Points!"
With the golden box open, Paranormal Energy fully spread throughout the room.
This alone had just earned him 100 Detention Points.
At the same time, now freed from the golden box, the ghost hands shot up,
attempting to attack Qin Feng.
"Behave yourself!"
With a low shout, Qin Feng—fully prepared—grabbed the two ghost hands by their wrists in a flash.
The moment he touched them, he felt an intense cold and stiffness.
A chill seeped into his body through his palms—it felt like clutching solid ice.
"Ding! Malevolent Ghost detected. Use 2000 Detention Points to detain it?"
Damn it!
Didn't it say a normal Malevolent Ghost only cost 1000 points?!
Damn system, ripping me off!
Qin Feng was instantly furious.
But this wasn't the time to argue—especially when the ghost hands were still in his grasp.
If he didn't detain them quickly, he'd be attacked.
He clenched his teeth and growled internally: Detain it, now!
"Yes, Host!"
2000 Detention Points were instantly deducted.
The ghost hands then merged into Qin Feng's arms.
A strange energy surged through both of his limbs—strong, domineering, eerie—it felt utterly unstoppable.
Under this power, human beings seemed no more than fragile ants—easy to crush with a touch.
"This is Paranormal Energy!"
Qin Feng stared at his hands, murmuring to himself.
His frustration with the system's "scam" had completely vanished—replaced by boundless joy.
He had finally become a powerful Ghost Tamer.
With the successful taming, the Golden House returned to normal, and the lights came back on.
Outside, everyone stared at Qin Feng's back in a daze, their eyes filled with disbelief.
Normally, during a taming ritual, one had to constantly resist the Malevolent Ghost's corruption—a harrowing, painful experience.
If you survived, you became a Ghost Tamer.
If not, you died—or worse, your body was taken over by the ghost.
But Qin Feng's process was shockingly smooth—he didn't seem to struggle at all.
He bound the Malevolent Ghost with ease.
None of them had ever seen anything like it.
"Did he succeed?"
Liu Ming murmured.
He understood best what it meant to bind a Malevolent Ghost.
It was like racing against death—no luck involved, no retreat possible, only pain and despair.
"He must've succeeded. I just didn't expect Qin Feng to do it so easily,"
Professor Lin said with amazement.
Then he pressed the communicator and said, "Qin Feng, how did it go? Did you succeed?"
Inside the Golden House, Qin Feng was questioning the system.
"You damn system! Didn't you say normal Malevolent Ghosts only cost 1000 points? Why did you take 2000?!"
The system replied, "Host, the ghost hands had been separated for too long. They've become two distinct ghosts."
"Really?"
Qin Feng was skeptical.
"Really," the system assured him.
"Then does that mean… I can restrain two Malevolent Ghosts at the same time with each hand?"
"Correct—but only normal Malevolent Ghosts. For more powerful ones, you'll need both ghost hands together to suppress them. Also, when used in tandem, the hands have the power to tear through anything, and can even dismember or fuse Malevolent Ghosts."
