A curse? Pretty simple! (13)

Thousands of miles away, amidst Hundred Lands Mountain Range.

"This can't go on."

Li Boyang's main body tossed the Heavenly Mandate Bone Plastron while deep in thought, his brow furrowed.

"Since we can't kill it for the time being, we'll have to use sealing."

Looking at the Heavenly Mandate Bone Plastron facing up in his hand, Li Boyang's brows immediately relaxed.

If we treat the Jade Statue of a Thousand Feet and the Eye of the South Sea as a single problem, then it will naturally be difficult to solve.

However, if we separate the thousand-foot jade statue and the South Sea eye into two separate issues, then the problem is naturally solved.

Seal the thousand-foot jade statue and the South Sea eye separately—this is precisely the problem that Li Boyang urgently needs to solve.

"The seawater... has become even more turbulent?"

What's happening deep in the South Sea?

"This is the power of that old monster, Buyan Huyu!?"

Just as Li Boyang was engaged in fierce combat with the thousand-foot jade statue, the ongoing impact of their struggle began to gradually spread throughout the South Sea.

The gods of the South Sea were the first to sense this change.

They felt their power being further weakened.

This situation is strikingly similar to the battle between Wu Yi and Buyan Huyu, and it's reminiscent of the collapse of the order of heaven and earth.

"It's the eye of the South Sea!"

"The sea eye is acting up again; even more seawater is gushing out!"

"The Kingfisher, and the Kingfisher is back too. Did she do something?"

The next to sense this change were the Gods of the Hundred Lands, led by the Undying Spring God.

As the deities of the land, they saw most clearly the changes in the coastline, changes that had become rare even after the Mountain Folk's support.

The Mountain Folk and the spirits were the last to notice this change, due to their relative strength.

In their own perceptions, the seawater was inherently turbulent, with waves and storms constantly assaulting the coastline.

If an already abnormal condition becomes even more abnormal, its impact on the individual becomes less pronounced.

Since death is inevitable either way, there's no point in comparing how horribly one dies.

Fortunately, the Kingfisher returned to defend in time, and with Xiluo remotely controlling the [Diagram of Mountains, Rivers, and the Land] to calm the chaotic Heaven and Earth Primordial Qi, this wave of battle was barely contained near the coastline of the South Sea.

Even so, seeing the waves growing ever more turbulent, the Undying Spring God finally couldn't resist making a move.

Rumble...

At the boundary between the ocean and the land, enormous roots rise from the ground, forming mountain-like structures that block the eroding tides.

Unlike his occasional interventions and protections before, the Undying Spring God unleashed his full power this time.

The thick roots not only blocked the erosion of the sea tide, but also forcibly widened the original river channel.

This directly caused the seawater along the coast to recede at a visible rate, and the land that had been submerged was re-emerged.

With just this one move, the Undying Spring God's achievements surpassed the combined gains of all the previous Gods of the Hundred Lands.

Because the timing of the Undying Spring God's attack was too perfect.

Not a single deity from the South Sea stood up to fight back.

As for Buyan Huyu?

He is barely able to take care of himself right now, so how could he possibly have the energy to pay attention to what is happening in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range?

What did you do!?

Buyan Huyu, who was fighting against Yang God, suddenly let out an angry roar.

Because just as He was about to refine Wu Yi's Primordial Spirit and completely break free from the "Incantation of Jade Transformation and Sleeplessness".

Buyan Huyu suddenly felt that the Essence Qi within his body had become somewhat disordered.

The Life Talisman Incantation corresponding to the body's surface also began to run rampant and out of control.

In the blink of an eye, the four giant snakes that were besieging Yang God let out a miserable scream.

Immediately afterwards, the thousand-foot jade statue began to grow wildly like a mutated cancer cell, and soon lost its complete human form.

"I told you, you've always underestimated me."

"What do you think Celestial Person are? Just a name used to describe Heavenly Deity?"

Floating silently in mid-air, Li Boyang did not take the opportunity to attack Buyan Huyu.

Because he knew it was pointless, Li Boyang didn't want to cause a catastrophe even more terrifying than "Wu Yi Shoots at Heaven".

What do you mean by that?

Sensing the mutated Yuan Qi within his body, Buyan Huyu's tone finally turned terrified.

He could sense that the Essence Qi that had given him new life was turning into something far more terrifying.

It's like... Curse!

With this thought flashing through his mind, Buyan Huyu finally realized what had happened.

"You can actually Curse?"

"And it's Curse on the same level as the Incantation of Jade Transformation and Sleeplessness!?"

The [Incantation of Jade Transformation and Sleeplessness] is the unique Curse of the seventh Witch King.

Even on the verge of death, he was able to drag down an old monster like Buyan Huyu together.

Li Boyang so easily unleashed Curse of the same level, Buyan Huyu didn't even see any consequences from the other party.

What's so strange about that?

"The term ' Celestial Person' is not a direct comparison to Heavenly Deity, but rather a way of utilizing the universe and all things."

Watching the Curse take effect with unusual calm, Li Boyang took the initiative to explain.

"Spirits and monsters are my subjects of study, Heavenly Deity are my subjects of study, and so are the shamans born among humans."

"Witches are merely practitioners; they focus only on the effects of Witchcraft Incantation, without delving into Witchcraft Incantation essence."

"I differ from them in this respect, especially after my contact with Wu Yi; I have been studying Witchcraft Incantation ever since."

"Curse, though bizarre, are ultimately just a branch of Witchcraft Incantation."

After a slight pause, Li Boyang looked at the distorted appearance of the thousand-foot jade statue, his eyes filled with undisguised curiosity and inquiry.

"During my battle with you just now, I managed to collect some of your revitalized flesh and blood tissue."

"Then, using these flesh and blood tissues as a medium, I interfered with the aggregation and sublimation of your vital Yuan Qi, thereby triggering an abnormal mutation of your Essence Qi..."

"If you call this Curse, then it truly is a Curse."

"Following my personal preference, you could call it the Incantation of Flesh and Blood Distortion Interfering with the Sublimation Process of Yuan Qi: The Irregular Mutation of Essence Qi Energy into Flesh and Blood."

"In the end, although you have simulated the cultivation method of the Hanging Silk Lady..."

"But this path is the path of the Hanging Silk Lady, and it may not be entirely suitable for you."

"Furthermore, the fact that you dared to sublimate your Life Primordial Qi during your battle with me makes this outcome unsurprising at all."
