Following the Eastern Ghost King’s warning, Qin Liuxi imdiately felt a surge of evil energy rushing towards her, like sharp ice blades covering every inch of her body, as yin energy penetrated her ridians, reaching her limbs and bones.
Qin Liuxi snorted coldly, her thoughts moved, and the aura of Karmic Fire flowed into her ridians, dispersing the yin energy wherever it passed. Perhaps her aura was too scorching, causing the evil aura to dare not approach her.
The Eastern Ghost King was originally greedy for this yin energy, as being a ghost, it was natural replenishnt for him, making him sowhat intoxicated. But as Qin Liuxi’s aura spread, he sobered up, realizing he had a feeling of wanting to indulge in the Ghost Tower.
He looked at Qin Liuxi in horror, caught her eyes which seed to smile yet not, and said, "It was attempting to lure ."
"Be careful, if you get lured over, I’ll have no choice but to refine you as well," Qin Liuxi said irritably.
Listen, is this even human talk?
The Eastern Ghost King said, "I’ve brought you to this road, I’ll step aside first. After all, you don’t need , I’ll send so little ghosts to find those Stone Beasts."
After saying this, he quickly disappeared.
Qin Liuxi sneered softly but said nothing. Even if the Eastern Ghost King did not leave, she would have driven him away, as although the energy field here contained Yin Evil, attracting ghosts, once indulged, those with low ghost power would beco nourishnt for the Ghost Tower.
She looked ahead, seeing a seven-story black pagoda rise skyward from the barren desert, exuding a strange and horrifying aura. Yet in ordinary people’s eyes, it seed dreamlike and pure, as alluring as a deadly mandrake.
However, in Qin Liuxi’s eyes, she saw countless dead souls shrieking miserably, struggling to escape. The more they struggled, the more they were torn apart, their resentful energy after death turning into evil which attached to the Ghost Tower, increasing its evil aura.
Simply put, just standing here, an ordinary person would surely go mad and die from the evil aura’s influence.
"This Ghost Tower has sothing within," Feng Xiu said, "I sensed the aura of demons within it."
Qin Liuxi said, "This transforms all evil spirits’ souls into Yin Evil; the more it absorbs, the stronger it grows. The Yin Evil spreads like the roots of a giant heavenly tree, annihilating all living beings it encounters, consuming their souls and extending further..."
Feng Xiu frowned, saying, "Wasn’t it said the ti hasn’t co? Setting the Array Eye on this Ghost Tower doesn’t make sense, is he already absorbing yin souls for sacrifice?"
Qin Liuxi sensed the continuous spread of the evil aura, sothing flashed in her mind, and she said, "So evil cultivators may deceive ignorant people by brainwashing them, instilling the belief that worship and sacrifice can give them what they desire. Under such brainwashing, they completely lose reason, becoming puppets, sacrificing wealth and even life, all to offer to their God. Evil cultivators who seek only treasure and lust can be trivial, but if they possess Daoist Cultivation and refine harmful Magic Artifacts, they would even seize people’s souls. You must know, the willingly sacrificed souls are more powerful and devout."
"Are you saying this Ghost Tower is that evil thing, leading people to willingly sacrifice themselves?"
"The Eastern Ghost King standing here earlier was nearly deceived by the evil aura, showing it’s more than simple Yin Evil; there’s wickedness within the evil. If even a ghost is affected, let alone ordinary mortals. To them, this Ghost Tower might appear like an Immortal Tower, leading them to willingly sacrifice themselves when deceived. If its power grows, and it moves its Array Eye, spreading evil aura like poison, what fate awaits the northwest’s people? Would they be drawn to willingly sacrifice?" Qin Liuxi lowered her eyes, stroking her left index finger, her voice as cold as ice, adding, "The process hardly matters, all it needs is the result."
Feng Xiu understood, saying, "So, this Ghost Tower is like a man-eating tree he planted, consuming more living beings, and spreading the evil aura like twisting tree roots, potentially destroying the entire northwest."
Qin Liuxi nodded.
Though shocked, Feng Xiu couldn’t help but say, "His mind is like it has thousands of sches?"
"That was a reincarnated Buddha’s son from an era when everyone practiced cultivation in the Buddhist Path and Dual Cultivation, what do you think?"
