Returning and Dealing with the Curse

Tianyuan, Azure Jiao Marsh, Luozhen Island

A flash of white light, Li Yunjing returned to the Luozhen Sect once again.

Stepping out of the teleportation array, Li Yunjing first sat down on the spot, absorbing the surrounding Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to gradually adapt his physical body to the flow of time in Tianyuan.

The flow of time is different in the Chenwei Dao Realm and the Tianyuan Dao Realm.

A day had passed in Tianyuan, while only an hour had passed in Chenwei.

To avoid contracting the Strange Time Illness, Li Yunjing had no other choice.

Even so, the impact was still significant.

Afterwards, Li Yunjing still needs to build a building specifically to deal with the Strange Time Illness.

After asking the disciples guarding the teleportation array, Li Yunjing learned that about a day had passed in Tianyuan.

Apart from the deaths, nothing else of note happened at the Luozhen Sect.

Li Yunjing asked who had unfortunately died.

On the Luozhen Sect's side, six Outer Disciple were killed, Wang Shanming, an inner disciple, died unexpectedly.

Even Elder Gu Lin and Shui Yao died unexpectedly.

Fortunately, although these people died, their Primordial Spirit remained intact.

Therefore, their Primordial Spirit were all absorbed into the Pool of Rebirth, and all of these dead people have now been resurrected.

Besides the deaths of members of the Luozhen Sect, members of the Jin Household also died suddenly.

Fortunately, they were all members of the Jin Household who were not of high status, so the Jin Household's losses were not significant.

Apart from that, no one else died.

Upon learning this news, Li Yunjing frowned deeply.

This is not good news.

Another day passed, and another Golden Core cultivator died.

If this continues, wouldn't it mean that even those at the Nascent Soul Spirit Transformation, and ultimately Dao Union would have to go through the same process?

Even if the Luozhen Sect has the Hall of Rebirth, which can resurrect dead disciples indefinitely.

However, each resurrection requires a considerable amount of Spirit Stone.

Even if Luozhen Sect obtained the Grand Profound Grotto-Heaven, which contained a considerable number of Spirit Stone for the Luozhen Sect to squander.

But even the most abundant Spirit Stone will eventually run out.

Not to mention that the Spirit Stone consumed truly disappeared into Tianyuan, rather than circulating within Tianyuan.

Over time, Tianyuan may experience a shortage of Spirit Stone.

At that time, Luozhen Sect will be the sinners of Tianyuan.

Li Yunjing didn't want things to come to this point, but Luozhen Sect still needed to continue its development in Tianyuan.

"Fortunately, we obtained the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water." Li Yunjing breathed a sigh of relief.

He left the teleportation array and went to find Nangong Chengyu.

Nangong Chengyu is currently in his residence.

When Li Yunjing met his master, his master was in a state of utter distress.

He was clearly troubled by the matter of the Curse stone tablet.

Upon seeing Li Yunjing, Nangong Chengyu suppressed his anxiety and smiled.

"You're back. How did things go over there?"

Li Yunjing nodded. "Everything went smoothly, without any unexpected incidents."

"That's good." Nangong Chengyu was pleased; at least there was good news.

Li Yunjing then asked, "Master, I've heard about what's happened recently, how come so many people are still dying? Has the Ritual of Refinement and Deliverance been set up?"

"It was set up naturally," Nangong Chengyu said helplessly, "But after it was set up, the effect was not significant."

The resentment had indeed lessened, but setting up the Ritual of Refinement and Deliverance seemed to have angered the stone tablet, and several more people died in a short period of time.

Nangong Chengyu looked at Li Yunjing: "Yunjing, we need to hurry up and find the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water, otherwise... I'm afraid the Luozhen Sect will either have to leave the Azure Jiao Marsh or just have to tough it out."

Leaving Azure Jiao Marsh was naturally not Nangong Chengyu's idea.

Having finally conquered Azure Jiao Marsh, how could we leave?

Li Yunjing smiled and said, "Master, don't worry, I've already found the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water."

"We've found them." Nangong Chengyu nodded, still not quite understanding.

When he came to his senses, he suddenly looked up at Li Yunjing.

"What did you say?! They've found you!?"

Li Yunjing laughed and said, "That's right, this trip to the Chenwei Dao Realm was very fruitful; I just happened to obtain the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water."

"Good, good." Nangong Chengyu clapped his hands repeatedly.

I thought I was going to suffer the torment of the Curse, but who would have thought it would be resolved so quickly.

"Let's go, hurry up and take down the stone tablet, I can't stand it anymore!"

Nangong Chengyu grabbed Li Yunjing and rushed towards the location of the stone tablet.

Before long, the two arrived at the location of the stone tablet.

At this moment, Fang Hexuan and Xie Zheng, along with other Spirit Transformation cultivators, surrounded the stone tablet.

Upon seeing them, Li Yunjing became curious and quickly went forward to ask them.

Fang Hexuan told Li Yunjing, "This can't go on any longer. We plan to try to destroy this stone tablet."

Li Yunjing quickly said, "Master, don't worry, I've brought the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water, there's no need for you to take action."

"Hmm? You brought the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water!?"

Fang Hexuan also showed an incredulous expression.

Others stared at them with disbelief.

Li Yunjing nodded and then briefly explained what had happened in the Chenwei Dao Realm.

Upon learning the whole story, Fang Hexuan and the others were overjoyed.

"Alright, with the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water here, we can finally handle this piece of junk!"

Urged on by the crowd, Li Yunjing took out a small bottle and then uncorked it.

In an instant, the sound, like a mighty river surging forward, rang out again.

Before long, a celestial river burst forth from the small bottle.

The river crashed directly into the stone tablet, breaking it in an instant.

The resentment clinging to the stone tablet seemed to have encountered strong oil, hissing and crackling incessantly, all of it dissolving under the surging waters of the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water.

The World-Cleansing Heavenly Water River completely swallowed the stone tablet at this moment.

In just a few breaths, the overwhelming resentment vanished completely.

The stone tablet had been washed away by the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water, and the inscriptions on it were blurred and illegible.

At this moment, the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water seemed to possess a spirit.

He circled around Li Yunjing a few times.

It then shot straight into the sky, trying to leave this place.

Upon seeing this, Fang Hexuan was about to grab World-Cleansing Heavenly Water.

But Li Yunjing stopped Fang Hexuan: "Master, let it go."

As the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water receded further and further away, Fang Hexuan grew somewhat anxious.

"Yunjing, what are you doing? Why don't you forcefully leave the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water behind? How can such a priceless treasure be allowed to leave!"

Li Yunjing shook his head. "There's no need. The stone tablet has already been dealt with, and the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water has been a great help. Since it wants to leave, let it go."

Seeing Li Yunjing's attitude, Fang Hexuan could only sigh repeatedly.

Li Yunjing didn't care. Although the World-Cleansing Heavenly Water was rare, it had acquired a spiritual quality.

Such a treasure should be returned to the world.

Forcing them to stay would likely bring trouble.

At this moment, Li Yunjing looked at the place where the stone tablet had originally stood.

The resentment completely vanished, and the stone tablet broke in two; the Curse should be gone.

Li Yunjing pointed to the remaining half of the stone tablet and said, "Dig up that half of the stone tablet, then destroy it all. It's annoying to look at."

As soon as he finished speaking, a Spirit Transformation cultivator stepped forward and dug out the half of the stone tablet.

Soon, the half of the stone tablet was also uprooted.

A large crater suddenly appeared in the ground.

But at that moment, Li Yunjing spotted something in the large pit.

Not only Li Yunjing noticed it, but others also discovered the anomaly.

Something was buried here!

Everyone stepped forward, eager to see what had been buried.

After the cleanup was complete, everyone discovered that a coffin was buried beneath the stone tablet...
