Chapter 218: Taking the Bait
Divine Doctor Xue looked at Cheng Yuan with utmost respect. "Divine Doctor Cheng, I will now proceed to break the Yin Curse. If I do anything wrong, please feel free to correct me at any time."
Cheng Yuan smiled faintly. "Divine Doctor Xue, just do it with confidence. In fact, the more mistakes you make, the more the other party will underestimate you, and the greater the chance they’ll reveal themselves."
"I understand."
Divine Doctor Xue turned to the others. "I am about to perform a technique. It will have an effect on ordinary people, so I must ask anyone below the rank of Grandmaster to please step aside."
The family members who were not Grandmasters quickly retreated.
He Hongting and Zhao Min didn’t want to leave, so they cast a pleading gaze toward Elder He.
Elder He gave a slight nod, indicating he would protect them.
Soon, the room became much emptier, with only a few people remaining.
Divine Doctor Xue turned and opened his medicine chest. He opened several hidden compartments to get to the very bottom layer.
Stored inside were all the tools Divine Doctor Xue used for dispelling Evil Qi and exorcising evil.
Divine Doctor Xue took out a packet of blood and turned to Elder He. "This is Black Dog Blood. I need to draw a magical symbol on Miss He’s forehead. I ask for your understanding."
Elder He nodded slightly.
Only then did Divine Doctor Xue open the blood packet, dip his finger in the Black Dog Blood, and draw a Zhengyi Sect Evil Exorcism Spell on He Jing’s forehead.
Cheng Yuan couldn’t help but frown. He had a slight aversion to Black Dog Blood, and also to the Evil Exorcism Spell.
This was because he cultivated the Celestial Witch Heart Method, which, in the eyes of Righteous Practitioners, was also considered a type of dark, yin art.
If Cheng Yuan felt a little uncomfortable, then naturally the Yin Curse would also feel uncomfortable.
Resisting the suppression of the Dragon Qi, the Yin Curse desperately gathered itself, surging swiftly toward He Jing’s forehead to assault the Evil Exorcism Spell!
Unfortunately, under the suppression of the Dragon Qi, the Yin Curse’s power was less than a tenth of its original strength.
Even so, the Evil Exorcism Spell still trembled slightly a few times!
Divine Doctor Xue raised his hand, pointed at the Evil Exorcism Spell, and released a stream of Spiritual Power, roaring, "Foul creature! How dare you run rampant!"
Bolstered by Divine Doctor Xue’s Spiritual Power, the Evil Exorcism Spell became extremely stable, even releasing a wave of the Zhengyi Sect’s Vast Righteous Qi!
The Yin Curse instantly recoiled, like a cat whose tail had been stepped on.
Cheng Yuan’s estimation of Divine Doctor Xue rose. ’His Mystical Technique is not bad. If no one interfered, he would have a hundred percent certainty of dispelling the Yin Curse.’
’It would just take him a bit more time.’
’Afterward, his Spiritual Power would be depleted, and he’d be weakened for a while.’
With Cheng Yuan backing him up, Divine Doctor Xue was full of confidence. He grabbed a handful of Glutinous Rice that had been refined with Pure Yang Fire from the bottom of his medical chest!
What is Pure Yang Fire?
One source is Child’s Urine.
The second is the first nocturnal emission of a young boy.
The nocturnal emission is hard to find, but Child’s Urine is everywhere.
Divine Doctor Xue sprinkled the Glutinous Rice onto He Jing’s body. Sensing the dark, sinister qi of the Yin Curse, the Glutinous Rice erupted with a startling light!
Streams of Pure Yang Qi burst from the Glutinous Rice and entered her body through her pores!
Pure Yang Qi was the nemesis of sinister qi. With its assistance, the Dragon Qi was finally no longer fighting alone, but had a powerful army on its side!
Originally, the Yin Curse could break itself into pieces to evade the Dragon Qi’s pursuit.
However, under the encirclement of the Pure Yang Qi army, the Yin Curse was devoured piece by piece!
Soon, the Yin Curse realized something was wrong. It reformed into a single entity to fight against the Dragon Qi and the army of Pure Yang Qi!
In the blink of an eye, the Pure Yang Qi was completely consumed!
The Yin Curse also lost about a tenth of its energy!
After using up the Pure Yang Qi, the Yin Curse once again broke into pieces to evade the Dragon Qi’s suppression.
The glow on the Glutinous Rice gradually faded and dimmed, and it soon turned to dust, scattering in the wind.
Divine Doctor Xue’s pupils contracted slightly. "What a powerful Yin Curse! Luckily, I still have a few tricks up my sleeve!"
Divine Doctor Xue grabbed another handful of Glutinous Rice, but he didn’t sprinkle it directly onto He Jing this time.
Because he was running low on Glutinous Rice!
’I have to attack on multiple fronts and wear it down all at once to destroy the Yin Curse in one fell swoop!’
Divine Doctor Xue took out a red string and tied it to He Jing’s little finger.
This red string had been soaked in Child’s Urine and exposed to the blazing sun for forty-nine days, refined into a Magical Artifact for dispelling yin and evil.
After tying the red string, Divine Doctor Xue finally sprinkled the Glutinous Rice onto He Jing’s body. Then, he formed a hand seal and chanted: "Heaven is divine, Earth is divine, I beseech the Three Virtues Ancestral Master to my side! Urgently dispatch Spirit Soldiers and Spirit Generals, quickly come and expel the Evil Qi for me! Go!"
After finishing the Spell, Divine Doctor Xue raised his hand and pointed at He Jing’s forehead. Surging waves of Spiritual Power activated the Evil Exorcism Spell, causing it to shine brilliantly and erupt with astonishing energy!
Given Divine Doctor Xue’s proficiency in Mystical Techniques, this was his ultimate, last-resort skill!
Cheng Yuan had his Double Pupil active the entire time. He could vaguely see two phantom figures clad in Armor rush into He Jing’s body and frantically hack away at the Yin Curse!
The Dragon Qi, now bolstered by a sufficient army of Pure Yang Qi, also began to furiously annihilate the Yin Curse!
What infuriated the Yin Curse the most was the red string on her little finger, which was accelerating its absorption of the Dragon Qi!
In just a moment, the Yin Curse’s power was diminished by thirty percent!
But the Dragon Qi and the Armored Warriors fought with ever-increasing valor! They showed no signs of weakening at all!
Of course, all of this came at the cost of Divine Doctor Xue’s Spiritual Power!
Divine Doctor Xue was already feeling dizzy, his vision blurring, but he didn’t relax. Instead, he pushed his Spiritual Power to its absolute limit!
’I have to neutralize this Yin Curse in one go!’
’Besides, with Divine Doctor Cheng here as a safety net, what’s there to be afraid of?’
In the blink of an eye, half of the Yin Curse’s energy was depleted. The Yin Curse finally sensed its impending doom and desperately tried to call for help!
A wisp of black qi broke through the encirclement of the Dragon Qi and Armored Warriors, escaped from the sole of He Jing’s foot, and quickly dove into the shadows!
Divine Doctor Xue had no reaction to this.
Elder He only felt a faint chill. He glanced around but didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary.
Only Cheng Yuan clearly saw the almost invisible wisp of black qi!
The corners of Cheng Yuan’s mouth curled up slightly. ’The fish has taken the bait!’
Cheng Yuan activated his Double Pupil to its maximum, his eyes faintly emitting rays of divine light!
Fortunately, the glow from the Glutinous Rice was far more intense than that of the Double Pupil, so it didn’t attract anyone’s attention.
In the vision of his Double Pupil, Cheng Yuan could clearly see that nearly invisible wisp of black qi traveling rapidly through the courtyard, sticking to all the dark corners, until it soon arrived at one.
This was a stable.
A kind-faced, elderly-looking stableman was dozing on a pile of horse feed.
Suddenly, the stableman shuddered. A dangerous glint flashed in his eyes, and strange wisps of black qi began to emerge from his body. The kind expression on his face vanished, replaced by a somewhat savage look!
The stableman whipped his head around to look in the direction of He Jing’s room. His voice was somewhat hoarse and sinister.
"A mere Junior Grade Xuan Warrior dares to break my Yin Curse? He’s courting death!!"
The stableman leaped up, jumping nimbly down from the horse feed. Where was the slightest trace of old age now?
CLICK!
The stableman opened the stable door and rushed in.
Initially, the horses had been snorting, a bit wild and unruly. But upon sensing the dense Evil Qi emanating from the stableman, they became like wilted quails, cowering in the corners, trembling, not daring to move an inch!
