Xinghe, Xinghe, and You Still Say It Has Nothing to Do with You!
The area around the Quenching Pool was completely silent!
Everyone stared wide-eyed at the Wu Man wielding the holy sword!
At this moment, Wu Man began to pick up other sacred artifacts around him. As Wu Man activated and used one sacred artifact after another, something shocking happened to everyone present!
These cursed artifacts... none of them lost their effect. On the contrary, after being cursed, the power of the curse was increased, and the power was even greater than before!
"Curse Wound! This is Curse Wound that even the Craft God cannot master!"
At this moment, Ouyang Ming rushed to Wu Man's side like a madman, and then took the cursed holy artifacts from Wu Man's hands!
As Ouyang Ming shouted, everyone's eyes immediately turned to Elder He!
Seeing the gazes directed at him, Elder He stroked his beard... and then said, "Gentlemen, I only know a little about this Curse Wound Old He, so for some things I don't understand, I'm afraid we'll have to ask the Great Sage."
The Great Sage said, "Elder He is right. I have only heard a little about this Curse Wound, so please correct us if we are wrong!"
After exchanging a glance, Elder He and the Great Sage, Elder He then spoke, saying that from the moment Wu Man entered our Vast Heaven Holy Land, he, Old He, actually wanted to find Wu Man to learn about curses, that is, the Witch Curse Art the Witch Curse Evil Spirits Clan.
However, at that time Wu Man's heart was not entirely with our Vast Heaven Holy Land. I, Old He, only recently got to know Wu Man thoroughly.
The Curse Art we talk about are the Witch Curse Art Witch Curse Evil Spirits talk about. In fact, Witch Curse Art are a branch of Curse Arts, and not some kind of evil or heretical practice.
We now believe that once a curse is placed on a magical artifact, the artifact becomes useless.
However, this is not absolute. I, Old He, have read in ancient books that in ancient times, the most powerful Curse Arts actually mastered a Spirit Attachment Art called the Curse Wound.
This Spirit Attachment Art can imbue a magical artifact with curse power, and this curse power will not only not damage the artifact, but may even increase its power!
The Great Sage acknowledged Elder He's statement, saying that although he did not understand the Curse Wound, he had personally witnessed various divine weapons and artifacts that Curse Wound!
The Curse Wound allows any magical artifact to be imbued with a cursed ability without losing any power. These curses do not affect the owner but can affect the opponent.
For example, if you get slashed by your opponent, normally you can recover by taking some medicine. However, if your opponent's magical artifact has Curse Wound effect, it will cause continuous damage, preventing your wound from healing in a short time.
Upon hearing the Great Sage's words, Elder He quickly waved his hand at Wu Man then handed Elder He a holy sword.
Elder He then borrowed a sacred artifact from Cheng Xiaotian, who was standing nearby.
Elder He held the Holy Sword in his left hand and the Curse Wound Holy Sword in his right, and then he plunged the Elder He into the Great Sage!
The audience. "???"
Elder He: "Please look, everyone. This is City Lord Cheng's Holy Sword. Although it caused considerable damage after the sword pierced through, the Great Sage's wound can still heal quickly with the use of some high-grade elixirs."
Elder He spoke, he drew the holy sword from the Great Sage and then used elixirs to restore him. Sure enough, the Great Sage's wounds healed quickly.
Then the Great Sage said that everyone might not have seen it clearly just now, Old He, why don't you show us a few more sword strikes so that everyone can see it clearly!
Elder He agreed with the Great Sage's words, then grabbed the Great Sage with his sword and began stabbing him repeatedly!
While he was stabbing him, Elder He was also using elixirs to help the Great Sage recover!
Although the holy sword continued to inflict damage on the Great Sage, the restorative effects of the elixirs were undeniable!
Then Elder He raised the Curse Wound holy sword and swung it at the Great Sage...
After the sword strike, Elder He said to everyone, "Look, this time the Great Sage's wounds are healing much slower than the healing power of the pills!"
As Elder He spoke, everyone watched as the same medicine, when used on the Great Sage, indeed had a significantly reduced effect!
The Great Sage's wounds seemed to be controlled by some strange force, making it impossible for them to heal in a short time!
Then Elder He, wielding the Curse Wound sword, began stabbing the Great Sage repeatedly, while simultaneously using medicine to restore the Great Elder He to Great Sage, just as before.
However, this time the Great Sage was ultimately stabbed to death, and the elixir was unable to pull Great Sage back from the brink of death as it had before.
A moment later, after the Great Sage revived, he pulled Great Sage Elder He aside to conduct the experiment again.
An Lan: "Elder He, let me give it a try this time!"
The Great Sage: "This is utter nonsense! We're discussing serious matters here! Elder He, ignore him and poke me!"
An Lan: "..."
The results of the experiment showed that this holy sword with the Curse Wound could reduce the recovery speed of pills by at least 70%!
Now that the Great Sage has been resurrected for the second time, all the big shots present understand!
There's no way around it, what other Dharma Aspect to that of the Vast Heaven Holy Land?
Others might at most describe the specifics of the Curse Wound, but Elder He and the Great Sage's combination can conduct experiments and explain simultaneously—this explanation is simply too sophisticated!
A sophisticated narrative often only requires the simple act of stabbing two people to death...
And this kind of high-level storytelling is something that only the Vast Heaven Holy Land has the resources for; no other force can do it!
The resurrected Great Sage said, "Gentlemen, those who have died should know that the effect of this Curse Wound is truly perfect!"
After Elder He finished his high-level explanation, he looked at Ouyang Ming and then spoke again, "Aren't you all curious about where the curse on the Craft God came from?"
"I used to think this was just a legend, but now it seems it really is!"
Elder He said that he had read in ancient books that the curse of the Craft God originated from a ruin where the Craft God discovered a magical artifact with Curse Wound.
In that era, the Curse Wound was already a legend; even the Craft God initially thought that the Curse Wound would never appear again.
After all, even the Witch Curse Evil Spirits Clan don't know how to imbue spiritual treasures with the power of Curse Wound.
But the suddenly discovered damaged magical artifact was a treasure to the Craft God.
The Craft God understood that the Curse Wound was not a legend, but a real thing, so Craft God began to frantically research how to restore the power of the Curse Wound to divine weapons.
It was precisely because of his research into the power of the Curse Wound that the Craft God came into contact with more and more cursed power. Therefore, the research into the Curse Wound was part of the reason why the Craft God was eventually cursed and turned into a monster.
The Craft God has spent his entire life researching the Curse Wound, but he hasn't even scratched the surface, let alone completed it!
The Curse Wound that he could never touch in his entire life has appeared here today!
Everyone's first reaction was, "Was this something Ouyang Ming did?"
But when everyone saw Ouyang Ming's shocked expression, they realized that it was definitely not Ouyang Ming who had done this.
If Ouyang Ming could truly inflict the Curse Wound, Ouyang Ming current expression should be one of ecstatic joy and excitement, not shock!
But if it wasn't Ouyang Ming who did it, then who was?
Just as everyone was looking on in confusion, Ma Liang spoke up, "I know! It's Senior Brother Xinghe! It must be Senior Brother Xinghe!"
Upon hearing Ma Liang's words, everyone looked confused, but Ma Liang spoke up, saying, "Do you all remember when I came to tell you that something had happened?"
What were everyone's expressions at the time?
But I, Ma Liang, clearly remember that Senior Brother Xinghe's face was filled with excitement and ecstasy at that time!
At that time, everyone thought something had happened and that it was all over. Even the big shots who weren't from our Vast Heaven Holy Land had expressions of confusion on their faces.
But only Senior Brother Xinghe had a look of wild joy on his face!
So Senior Brother Xinghe must have known about the appearance of the Curse Wound beforehand, otherwise tell me why he would have looked so overjoyed and excited in that situation?
Could it be that something happened, and Senior Brother Xinghe is overjoyed and excited?
Chu Xinghe was so angry he almost peed his pants!
This is outrageous! Ma Liang, you bastard, are you trying to scam me?!
What the hell is this Curse Wound? My brain is really fried right now...
What the hell do I know about Curse Wounds? This time, you're not making any reasonable assumptions, you're just making things up, huh?!
Chu Xinghe declared that he couldn't remain calm at all this time. He had to explain that this had nothing to do with him; it was all Ma Liang's imagination.
Chu Xinghe: "This matter has nothing to do with me..."
Before Chu Xinghe could finish speaking, the White Tiger Holy Venerable interjected, "Xinghe, don't be modest! Everyone, look! That's... Formation Within a Formation! Can you feel the Formation Within a Formation?"
The moment the White Tiger Holy Venerable uttered these words, everyone present was utterly bewildered. What kind of Formation Within a Formation?
Gu Mingchao retorted, "You White Tiger, think we... cough cough... are all Innate Formation Mastery like us?"
They couldn't sense the advantage of the Formation Within a Formation at all!
Just as everyone was filled with questions, the White Tiger gently patted the Quenching Pool with its paw, and in the next second, countless Spirit Power poured into the Quenching Pool.
As the White Tiger's Spirit Power was injected, the array patterns in the entire Quenching Pool were instantly illuminated. At this moment, everyone could see the dense array patterns of the Heavenly Dipper Fortune-Seeking Formation set up in the Quenching Pool shining brightly!
But just as the Heavenly Dipper Fortune-Seeking Formation shone brightly, the White Tiger's claw gently touched the Heavenly Dipper Fortune-Seeking Formation, and the next moment everyone in the Heavenly Dipper Fortune-Seeking Formation saw the Formation Within a Formation that Chu Xinghe had hidden!
Previously, the Formation Within a Formation was hidden, and even the White Tiger could not easily detect it. However, now that the Formation Within a Formation is still in operation, everyone can clearly see that the Formation Within a Formation array is continuously absorbing the power of the curse from the Craft God Mausoleum and putting it into the Quenching Pool.
All the cursed power in the entire Quenching Pool was attracted by the Formation Within a Formation.
At this Formation Within a Formation revealed its complete form, and the one that set up the Formation Within a Formation was the Flying Locust that shimmered with an earthy yellow light!
When the Flying Locusts appeared, everyone looked at Xinghe with smiles on their faces!
Xinghe, you still say this has nothing to do with you?
The Grand Elder smiled and shook his head, saying, "White Tiger Holy Venerable, Xinghe just wanted to keep a low profile, why did you reveal it all at once? But since you've revealed it, let's keep it brief..."
White Tiger: "Understood!"
Chu Xinghe remained calm...
