I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 544
Chapter 544 [Joyful Heart-Erosion Curse], Lu Qing’s Method
“What about the Supreme Master Miaoyu?”
Lu Qing saw the expression on the face of the Lord of Canglan City and knew that this being called Supreme Master Miaoyu was no ordinary powerful being.
“Supreme Master Miaoyu is a Grand Elder of the Hehuan Sect, a top sect in the upper realm. He is a powerful soul-level being who has passed the fourth tribulation of the soul.”
Mo Hongyun said slowly.
“Four tribulations of the soul…” Lu Qing was shocked.
Every time a soul-level being passes through a tribulation of the soul, their strength undergoes a drastic transformation.
And the breath of a powerful being who has passed through four tribulations of the soul is probably not something he can withstand now.
“It’s just a four-tribulation soul, but Supreme Master Miaoyu is notorious for his lust. He especially likes to collect women with special physiques as concubines for dual cultivation.”
The Lord of Canglan City looked a little grim.
“Hongyun, what happened later? It’s said that Supreme Master Miaoyu practiced the Hehuan Sect’s supreme technique, the [Miaoyu Joyful Zen].
It’s incredibly strange and difficult to master. Few women he favored could escape his control.” “
What else can I do?” Mo Hongyun said calmly. “I’m just a mere Jindan realm cultivator. Being targeted by a powerhouse at the Fourth Tribulation of the Soul Realm, what else can I do but accept my fate?
Even our Mo Clan ancestor’s cultivation was only at the Fourth Tribulation of the Soul Realm.
How could he be a match for a behemoth like the Hehuan Sect ?
Even at that birthday banquet, I didn’t realize I was being targeted by Supreme Master Miaoyu. It wasn’t
until I returned to my clan that I saw this thing appear on my body.”
With that, Mo Hongyun ignited a stream of magical power in her hand and slashed it across her body.
Scraps of fabric flew everywhere, and a tear tore through her robe at her chest, revealing a sliver of white.
However, Lu Qing and the Canglan City Lord were not paying attention.
Their eyes were fixed on a strange mark on Mo Hongyun’s chest.
It was a thumb-sized, eerie crimson mark composed of red threads. It faintly seemed to be moving, almost like a living being, a terrifying sight.
“It’s indeed the [Joyful Heart-Erosion Curse]!”
The Canglan City Lord’s face changed drastically upon seeing the strange mark.
“It’s rumored to be the specialty of the Supreme Master Miaoyu, and it’s incredibly strange.
Those struck by this spell not only gradually have their minds corroded, eventually becoming completely devoted and obedient to the master.
Furthermore, this spell is completely under the control of the caster.
No matter where they flee, they will be detected, leaving no possibility of escape.
Hongyun, you’ve been struck by the [Joyful Heart-Erosion Curse], why didn’t you tell me earlier?”
The Canglan City Lord’s face was grim. He had never imagined that Mo Hongyun was carrying such a heavy burden.
“What’s the harm in telling you earlier? Can you help me break this [Joyful Heart-Erosion Curse]?
Or would your Nangong family’s ancestors be willing to help save this bastard of mine?” Mo Hongyun asked calmly.
The Canglan City Lord paused.
The [Joyful Heart-Erosion Curse] was a curse cast by Supreme Master Miaoyu. With his own strength, he naturally couldn’t break it.
There were certainly ancestors in the clan far more powerful than Supreme Master Miaoyu.
But even he himself couldn’t guarantee they would help Mo Hongyun break the curse.
“Right? Your Nangong family has been eager for this bastard of mine to die soon.
How could they extend your noble hand to save my worthless life?
Furthermore, my parents visited your Nangong family that year, only to die in mysterious circumstances, without even an explanation.
From that moment on, I vowed in my heart that even if I were to fall into hell, I would never ask your Nangong family for help!”
Seeing the hatred on Mo Hongyun’s face, the Canglan City Lord fell silent.
He understood that Mo Hongyun’s hatred for their Nangong family would never be resolved.
This time, if he hadn’t risked his life to save her, she probably wouldn’t have recognized him as her uncle.
However, he was still worried about the safety of his niece. He
couldn’t help but say, “Then haven’t you tried asking for help from your Mo family’s ancestor? He is also a powerful being at the fourth level of the Yuanshen realm, so he should have a way.
You have awakened your numerology ability, and you will almost certainly be able to enter the Yuanshen realm in the future.
If the Mo family ancestor knew about it, there would be no way he wouldn’t save you.”
“Do you think I haven’t considered this?” Mo Hongyun sneered. “But not long after I was struck by the [Joyful Heart-Erosion Curse], the Hehuan Sect sent a wedding invitation, saying that the Supreme Master Miaoyu wanted to take me as his concubine.
If we disobey, our Mo family will no longer have a foothold in the upper realm.
The Hehuan Sect’s strength is comparable to that of your thirty-six upper clans.
My Mo family might not be able to withstand the Supreme Master Miaoyu alone,
let alone the other more powerful Supreme Elders.
Do you think the Mo family would offend the behemoth Hehuan Sect for me, a mere Jindan realm
cultivator with deceased parents and no one to rely on?
Forget asking for help. I dare not even reveal the fact that I have awakened my numerology magical powers and the Xuanyin Jade Body.
If the Mo family knew, I’m afraid
their first thought would not be to rescue me, but to eliminate me, in order to protect the family’s innate magical powers.”
The Lord of Canglan City fell silent again.
Lu Qing was also a little awed.
According to Mo Hongyun’s previous statement, certain dual cultivation methods would take away Xuanyin Jade Body’s chastity as well as its cultivation and magical powers.
If the Mo family knew that Mo Hongyun had awakened both Xuanyin Jade Body and Divine Divine Power at the same time…
To preserve the secret of their family’s innate magical powers, they might even secretly eliminate Mo Hongyun.
“I do have a question,” Lu Qing said after a moment’s reflection. “If this [Joyful Heart-Erosion Mantra] is so powerful, why did you, the Tower Master, appear in Canglan City?
Didn’t the Supreme Master Miaoyu stop you?”
This puzzled Lu Qing deeply.
As far as he knew, Mo Hongyun had been operating the Treasure Tower in Canglan City for decades.
Given the tyranny of the Supreme Master Miaoyu, how could he have allowed Mo Hongyun to stay here for so long?
In other words, why hadn’t the [Joyful Heart-Erosion Mantra] corrupted Mo Hongyun’s mind for so many years?
“That old fellow naturally didn’t want me to come down to the Xiaocang Realm,” Mo Hongyun said with hatred on her face. “I was able to come down here because I paid with my life!”
“The old fellow wanted me as his concubine simply because he was attracted by my Xuanyin Jade Body and the astrological powers of my awakened bloodline.
But he’s a powerful being who’s reached the fourth tribulation of the Yuanshen realm, while I’m only at the Jindan realm.
Not only is my cultivation level lower, but even my astrological powers haven’t reached a high level due to years of keeping a low profile.
Even if he took my Red Pill, the benefits wouldn’t be significant.
His original plan was to bring me to the Hehuan Sect and wait
until I reached the Yuanshen realm and cultivated my astrological powers to perfection before taking everything from me.
But I was able to fulfill his wish!
Back then, I spent a hundred years of my life deducing that the only opportunity to break free from the shackles of fate lay behind Canglan City.
I immediately threatened that old fellow, Miaoyu Shangzun, with my life, to give me fifty years of freedom.
If he didn’t agree, I would immediately self-destruct my Jindan, leaving him with nothing.
If he agreed to give me fifty years, I would diligently cultivate and comprehend my magical powers during these fifty years.
When the time was up, I would give him everything I had.
After weighing the pros and cons, the old man finally agreed to my request and released me to the lower realm.
With the [Joyful Heart-Erosion Mantra], he wasn’t worried about my escape.
He would sense me the moment I left the Lesser Cang Realm.
With his vast magical powers, recapturing me would be a piece of cake. “
So that’s how it is.”
Lu Qing listened, a glint of pity in his eyes.
He hadn’t imagined that the owner of the Treasure Tower, so famous in Canglan City, envied and revered by countless cultivators,
would bear such a tragic fate.
As for the Lord of Canglan City, that was even more unimaginable.
For all this time, he hadn’t known his niece was under such immense pressure.
He moved his mouth, but found no words.
“Master, according to you, do you think I’m the one who can help you escape this?” “Lu Qing asked.
“Indeed, back then I spent a hundred years of my life activating my bloodline divine powers.
The destiny I received indicated that the opportunity to break free from the shackles of fate lay within Canglan City.
I established the Treasure Tower so I could have a suitable excuse to connect with more people in Canglan City.
But over the years, I’ve met countless cultivators,
but none who could resonate with my divine power.
Until a few days ago, I met you, Fellow Daoist Lu.”
Mo Hongyun paused before continuing, “After meeting you, Fellow Daoist Lu, my divine power began to fluctuate, giving me a foreboding omen.
From that moment on, I knew that the opportunity to break free from the shackles of fate lay with you.”
“Master, are you overestimating me?” Lu Qing shook his head. “I’m only a mere Jindan realm cultivator. How could I possibly withstand the divine power of a powerful Yuanshen Fourth Tribulation cultivator?
The divine power of Supreme Master Miaoyu is so powerful that a single breath could reduce me to ashes.” “
Hearing Lu Qing’s words, Mo Hongyun froze.
After a while, she finally spoke with difficulty: “Fellow Daoist Lu, is there really no way to help Hongyun?”
“I don’t have the ability to compete with the Supreme Master Miaoyu, let alone the Four Tribulations Yuanshen. Even if it is a powerful being who has just entered the Yuanshen realm, I am no match for him.” Lu Qing said sincerely.
“How could it be…”
Hearing Lu Qing’s answer again, despair appeared on Mo Hongyun’s face.
She had thought that this time she could finally get rid of the heavy shadow that had been weighing on her.
Especially when she saw Lu Qing crushing and ravaging Gongshu Yu with absolute strength.
It made her feel that hope had really come to her.
However, Lu Qing now said that he was powerless, which made Mo Hongyun fall into despair again.
And this time the despair was even greater than before.
Because the glimmer of hope that she had deduced after spending a hundred years of her life had also been shattered.
“Little Fellow Daoist Lu, is there really no way? As long as you can help Hongyun, I can give it no matter what the price! “
The Lord of Canglan City said anxiously.
Looking at Mo Hongyun’s eyes that had almost lost their luster, Lu Qing felt a little bit of pity in his heart.
Although he wanted to help her very much, he really didn’t have the power to contend with the mighty Four Tribulations Soul now.
Not to mention, behind the other party, there is a behemoth-like top force.
So he still shook his head: “I’m sorry, OP, my ability is limited, I’m afraid I really can’t help you, otherwise, you should find a way to escape from this Xiaocang Realm.”
“Escape? Where can I escape to?” Mo Hongyun smiled bitterly, “I’m under the influence of the [Joyful Heart-Erosion Curse]. As long as I leave the Xiaocang Realm, the old dog Miaoyu will be able to sense it immediately.
Even with his magical powers, he doesn’t even need to go there in person.
As long as the curse is activated from a distance, I can immediately become worse than death. “
In desperation, Mo Hongyun was no longer polite when she mentioned the Supreme Master Miaoyu, and directly called him old dog.
Seeing this, the Lord of Canglan City was also heartbroken, and hated himself for being weak and unable to help his sister, the only orphan.
However, when Lu Qing heard Mo Hongyun’s words, his expression moved.
“So, OP, the biggest trouble for you now is actually this [Joyful Heart-Erosion Curse] in your heart, right?”
“What did you say?”
Mo Hongyun looked at Lu Qing blankly, not understanding the meaning of his words for a moment.
But Lu Qing had already vaguely grasped something.
He touched his chin: “If that’s the case, I can try it. OP, forgive my rudeness, but could I take a closer look at this curse seal on your heart?”
At this time, Mo Hongyun finally reacted: “Friend Lu, have you thought of a way?” “
It’s just some ideas, but OP, please don’t have too much hope. “
Lu Qing asked him to prepare himself mentally first.
Otherwise, if he didn’t think of a solution, the other party would be even more disappointed.
Having said that, a glimmer of hope ignited in Mo Hongyun’s heart again.
She said frankly: “Can it be worse than it is now? Fellow Daoist Lu, just watch. For cultivators like me, the skin and flesh are just external appearances.”
“Then I am sorry for being rude.”
Lu Qing immediately activated his supernatural power and looked at the curse mark on Mo Hongyun’s heart seriously.
[Joyful Heart-Eroding Mantra] As expected of a curse cast by a Four Tribulations Soul Master.
With Lu Qing’s current strength, even a high-level spiritual tool would only need a little over ten breaths to detect information after unlocking his supernatural powers. Meanwhile,
the curse seal on Mo Hongyun’s heart lasted for several dozen breaths before slowly emitting a rich purple supernatural light, and several messages floated out.
[Joyful Heart-Eroding Mantra: A curse cast personally by Supreme Master Miaoyu.]
[This curse can corrode and manipulate the human mind, and is extremely toxic.]
[Those struck by this curse suffer a nightmare, their life and death at risk. Even if they flee to the ends of the earth, they cannot escape the caster’s control.]
[Supreme Master Miaoyu is one of the Grand Elders of the Hehuan Sect, a Four Tribulations Soul Master with a profound cultivation realm and powerful Taoist magic.]
[Inheritance discovered, do you want to download and simulate?]
…
Lu Qing carefully read the floating messages.
He didn’t really care about the previous one, as it was pretty much the same as what Mo Hongyun had said.
Only when he saw the last message did a hint of joy appear in his eyes.
This was the message he had been waiting for.
Looking at the prompt in the message, Lu Qing didn’t hesitate and immediately chose to download the simulation. (End of this chapter)
