The Root of the Curse: Qi Field Conflict?

When it came to "Aura Field," Tang San immediately understood what Zhou Qing meant by their superiority over ordinary Soul Master.

The Qi Field Power?

That is merely a force that is aroused by the stimulation of belief.

Whether it's Armament Qi Field, Perception Qi Field, or Perception Qi Field, the essence is to harmonize the three treasures of Essence, Qi, and Spirit, and spirit within the body.

And what about the Aura Field itself?

The Aura Field of a person and the Feng Shui Qi Field between heaven and earth are actually based on the same principle.

The earth and everything on it, such as mountains, forests, and grasslands, can correspond to the human body.

The wind in Feng Shui Qi Field can correspond to human respiration.

Water in Feng Shui Qi Field can correspond to blood in the human body.

But whether it's wind or water, they must be in motion for the world to have vitality.

Similarly, the human body needs constant breathing and blood circulation to function and revitalize itself.

The "Aura Field" of Feng Shui Qi Field refers to the different directions and trends of Feng Shui flowing and traversing the earth, which create a special feeling, making people feel that it is a blessed land of immortals, or that it is a barren and desolate place.

Similarly, subtle differences in the details of breathing and blood flow and circulation in the human body, namely the frequency, result in each person's "Aura Field" being largely the same.

Humans live between heaven and earth, breathing in the Heaven and Earth Qi, and interacting with each other at all times. If we can harmonize our personal Aura Field with the Aura Field of heaven and earth at all times, so as to achieve a harmonious state, then our body will not be affected by the external environment and will not feel uncomfortable.

According to this reasoning, the Ascension Curse of this Abyss Ruins may simply mean that the environment of each layer is constant, so the Aura Field is constant. Those who go down cannot harmonize their own aura with the external Aura Field. Moreover, the external environment 'Aura Field shows a downward trend, so going down is fine, but coming up requires fighting against the constant Aura Field of each layer's environment.

How can human beings resist nature?

As long as the ascendant remains within each level of space, it cannot be avoided.

Unless an individual's strength reaches a certain level, causing their body to transform to a higher level, such that the Aura Field emitted by their instincts during Life activities is stronger than the environmental Aura Field of each layer of this Abyss Ruins, it might be possible to ignore it.

This explains why even Soul Master cannot resist this Ascension Curse.

The reason is simple.

Although Soul Master possess Soul Power and are far stronger than ordinary people, they are still human. Their Aura Field is not much different from that of ordinary people, only stronger, but not necessarily harmonious.

Unless you reach Level 100...

However, Zhou Qing speculated that a level 99 powerhouse should be able to barely resist, since the lifespan of Peerless Douluo has reached a thousand years, and it is highly likely that under the influence of massive Soul Power, their Life Level has begun to transform into a higher level.

Ordinary Soul Master, lacking knowledge of concepts such as Feng Shui Qi Field and personal Aura Field, coupled with limited understanding of basic theories of Soul Power cultivation and even insufficient knowledge of the human body, have no choice but to tough it out when faced with the Ascension Curse of the Abyss Ruins.

How can we possibly withstand it?

Conversely, if the Aura Field is blocked, one is very likely to be subject to a stronger "curse".

"Is that really the case?" Tang San's eyes narrowed slightly.

"You'll know once you try it."

Zhou Qing did not stop the circulation of his Soul Power, but kept it in the same state as before he controlled the Qi Field Power Soul Power, without adjusting it on its own according to the external environment.

In an instant, Zhou Qing felt a little dizzy, as if someone had hit her head hard with a foam hammer.

It didn't hurt, but there was a strange tingling sensation. It was as if the "hammer" had stimulated some neurons in his brain, making his throat a little itchy and his breathing slightly difficult.

Tang San did as instructed, and a faint white tinge appeared on his rosy complexion at a speed visible to the naked eye.

It's obvious!

Zhou Qing guessed correctly!

"It must have been tough being the first time you'd experienced the Ascension Curse, right?"

Because Zhou Qing and Tang San had been speaking very quickly, Riko hadn't understood what they were saying. In addition, she was also under the influence of the Ascension Curse, and her attention was focused on climbing. She only breathed a sigh of relief when she was almost at the top.

"It really doesn't feel good."

Zhou Qing slowed down his speech and adjusted the efficiency of his Soul Power circulation back to a state that was compatible with the surrounding environment. The slight nausea that rose to his throat immediately disappeared, and his mind became clearer.

The essence of cultivating "Qi Field Power" is to develop the body's instinct to adjust the frequency of its internal Soul Power circulation according to changes in the external natural environment, thereby keeping the body's functions at their optimal state.

The construction of the Martial Cauldron Soul Furnace Martial Soul on the Eight Extraordinary Meridians and the Twelve Primary Meridians, and even the Inner Scenery World, is essentially to make this instinct more perfect, and even to make it possible to control it with one's own subjective consciousness.

Therefore, in terms of adjustment, Zhou Qing, who had already developed the prototype of the Inner Scenery, was able to adjust back more easily than Tang San, taking only three seconds, while Tang San took about three minutes.

Upon reaching the top, which is the very edge of the Abyss Ruins, the effects of the "Ascension Curse" on Riko vanished instantly, and she immediately regained her original energetic state.

This further confirms Zhou Qing's guess.

If it were truly a so-called "curse," it wouldn't simply disappear upon leaving the Abyss Ruins; rather, it would accompany one for life.

However, Riko's lively demeanor clearly contradicts the "curse".

Therefore, the Ascension Curse is most likely the orderly downward flow of the specific environmental Aura Field at each level. Once the person going down chooses to go against the flow, they have to contend with the environmental Aura Field of the layers below.

Although this Abyss Ruins is by no means a true natural world, each layer seems to form its own world, with a diameter of at least a hundred kilometers. For an individual, it is not much different from fighting against the Feng Shui Qi Field of the real natural world.

However, no matter how treacherous the Feng Shui Qi Field in nature may be, it would not have such an obvious and terrifying effect. There must be some kind of special Soul Guidance Device in the architecture of this Abyss Ruins that can connect a person's Aura Field with the Aura Field of the environment, or something similar to a perfect Soul Guidance Array.

Only in this way can those who enter be harmed in a way that can be described as a "curse".

Furthermore, judging from the phenomenon of the Ascension Curse from lower to higher levels, perhaps the "device" is located on the lowest level, that is, the Twelfth Layer.

"If you want to explore in the future, you can ask me to be your guide. My home is No. 720 Ruozhi Primary School, Dormitory Building 7 Big Cave Street." After bidding farewell to the two, Riko ran towards the street illuminated by Soul Conductor streetlights and disappeared into the darkness around the corner.

Tang San looked up at a street sign that read "Cave Street" in the distance and was speechless. "I guess we can't find it. We don't recognize these words at all... But, Qing Ge, these words, when taken out individually, seem to resemble the twenty-six letters you wrote down from the ancient book in Holy Soul Village."

Zhou Qing speculated, "Perhaps the residents of this Abyss Town are the descendants of that civilization whose writing and language were completely abolished on the continent, as I suspect."
