Chapter 45: Abetting the Curse
Although this ensured that those who lived here would not be affected by the evil energy, it did cause the soul-capturing array to become stronger and stronger. The binding formation that was suppressing the evil energy was actually strengthening the array. Therefore, the curse on the Song family’s younger generation was getting more and more severe.
If Yun Qin wanted to break the array, she first had to break the binding formation that was suppressing the evil energy. After that, she could absorb the evil energy that was released.
According to the ancient book in her mind, there were two ways to break a biding formation. One was to find the core. Once she broke the core, the entire formation would break.
The other way was to directly attack the weakest part of the binding formation and break it with force.
Yun Qin had not systematically studied the Taoist techniques outline in the book, so it was difficult for her to find the core. The specific method described in the ancient book was too obscure and difficult for Yun Qin to understand.
So she chose the second method, which was to break the binding formation with force.
Yun Qin calmed her heart and tried to use the golden mana that Zhang Yuan left in her body.
During this period, she had not used this golden mana at all. It floated around Yun Qin’s diaphragm. It didn’t fuse with the evil energy in her body, and the two did not interact with each other.
But when Yun Qin calmed her mind and tried to command this mana, it kept slipping out of her grasp, moving around without listening to her commands.
Yun Qin could only command a few strands of this golden mana. It was impossible to break the array with this meager amount of mana.
Could it be that she had to cultivate her mana before she could break the array?
Yun Qin was questioning her entire existence for a moment. She didn’t expect that she couldn’t command the mana that Zhang Yuan left for her.
After carefully studying the command techniques outlined in the ancient book, Yun Qin sat down, crossed her legs, and focused on sensing the mana in her body.
Yun Qin’s mind was like a pair of big hands, squeezing and rubbing this ball of golden mana. The golden mana refused to listen to her and darted into her black evil energy, stirring up her evil energy throughout her body.
However, Yun Qin soon discovered that although her evil energy did not interact with the golden mana, it could wrap around the golden mana and prevent it from escaping.
After discovering this, Yun Qin used a portion of her evil energy to wrap around the golden mana.
It was effective! Yun Qin exclaimed in her heart.
She discovered that using this method, not only did the golden mana become obedient, but the “power” that she could command increased significantly.
Hence, Yun Qin emitted a condensed wave of golden mana wrapped in evil energy slowly in all directions.
After the mana touched a solid object, Yun Qin felt a faint golden biding formation at the bottom of the pond.
This golden formation was the same as Yun Qin’s power. It was a mixture of evil energy and golden mana. It was not a pure type of aura.
This binding formation seemed to be protecting the Song family, but realistically, it was strengthening the soul-capturing array.
After finding this binding formation, the rest was easy to handle.
Yun Qin used her mana to scan the entire formation and sure enough, she found a few weak areas.
Yun Qin condensed her golden mana that was wrapped in evil energy into one strand and attacked the binding formation at the bottom of the pond.
However, this attack stripped Yun Qin of her strength. Her mana uncontrollably smashed towards the formation. Under the violent impact, Yun Qin felt her heart and mind shake.
As the binding formation that was suppressing the evil energy in the courtyard broke, there was an explosion in the middle of the pond. It seemed like there were sounds of shattering glass following the explosion. Then, streams of intense golden mana shot through the surface of the water and attacked Yun Qin.
When the golden mana surged out from the center of the pond, Yun Qin saw that the stone statue that looked like a buddha in the day turned into a three-headed, six-armed ghost face. It had an exceptionally ferocious face.
The ghost’s eyes were staring at Yun Qin when the golden mana shot out, appearing exceptionally vicious and terrifying. 𝐟r𝒆ℯ𝘄𝑒𝒃𝚗𝒐𝘃e𝗹.c𝘰𝐦
But this did not scare Yun Qin. At this moment, she had an even more troublesome matter.
The large amount of golden mana that shot out from under the water surged straight into Yun Qin’s body. Yun Qin felt as if thousands of horses were trampling her mind. Her head felt like it was about to split open.
Meanwhile, the thick evil energy and mana surrounding her also began to churn, making everything even more chaotic.
Under such circumstances, Yun Qin could only try her best to stabilize her mind. She endured the pain and used her consciousness to comb through the chaotic powers in her body.
After a while, the power in Yun Qin’s body finally settled down. The golden mana floating in her diaphragm became bigger and the large amount of evil energy that it carried also filled her power.
