Chapter 462: I Have Been Cursed
“Sword Domain, open!”
Whoos.h.!.+
Qin Chuan suddenly erupted with a powerful aura.
At this moment, the amount of sword energy increased by several times. It blotted out the sun and was extremely majestic.
Almost half of the airs.p.a.ce that belonged to the Arena of Life and Death was occupied by sword energy.
Such an exaggerated scene was witnessed by the spectating disciples for the first time. It struck their eyes and souls, leaving them completely shocked.
The elders in the sky were also dumbfounded.
The corners of their mouths twitched, and they were so shocked that they couldn’t make a sound.
This time, Qin Chuan fully unleashed his sword domain, maximizing the might of his Galaxy Sword Domain.
“Myriad Swords Return!”
Qin Chuan shouted, and all the sword energy spread out like galloping wild horses.
Every streak of sword energy contained extremely powerful destructive power.
Everywhere they pa.s.sed, a pitch-black spatial rift was left behind.
From afar, they looked like squirming black earthworms.
Not only was the barrier around the Arena of Life and Death protective, it also isolated s.p.a.ce.
In other words, the interior of the barrier was a sealed s.p.a.ce.
Although Fan Zhibao’s soul was hidden in the void, because it was a sealed s.p.a.ce, the Void Bridge that connected to this s.p.a.ce could only be inside.
In the blink of an eye, the s.p.a.ce covered by the Arena of Life and Death was completely destroyed by Qin Chuan’s sword energy.
Qin Chuan observed carefully, not missing a single inch of s.p.a.ce.
Indeed.
Under Qin Chuan’s tireless search, he finally made a discovery.
“That thread should be the Void Bridge!”
Qin Chuan had discovered the Void Bridge, but it was different from what he had imagined.
Although the name of the Void Bridge carried the word “bridge,” it did not look like a bridge. Instead, it looked more like a line, smaller than a strand of hair.
If not for Qin Chuan’s careful observation, he wouldn’t have discovered it.
Since he had discovered the Void Bridge, Qin Chuan did not hesitate. He controlled a streak of sword energy and easily severed it.
Fan Zhibao’s soul was exposed.
Qin Chuan clenched his fist, and the soul was instantly drawn into his palm.
“Zhu Xiaoming, you… you will die a horrible death. I curse you, I curse you that your cultivation will never be perfected.”
Fan Zhibao’s soul shouted sinisterly.
For people like Fan Zhibao, who had been demonized as an Immortal realm, apart from having the Indestructible Body, they also had the ability to curse.
However, the curse required a certain price—to sacrifice the soul.
The more souls sacrificed, the stronger the curse.
Fan Zhibao’s hatred for Qin Chuan ran deep into his soul.
His mental demon came from this hatred.
He knew that he wouldn’t be able to live, so he would sacrifice all his soul to curse Qin Chuan.
Qin Chuan didn’t know that Fan Zhibao had such an ability, and thought that Fan Zhibao was just joking.
However, when Fan Zhibao’s soul dissipated, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
He felt like he had been shackled.
Even though his actions weren’t affected, he felt that they were somewhat restricted.
“Am I really cursed?” murmured Qin Chuan.
At this moment, Lan Lang’s voice sounded in his ears again.
“Xiaochuan, it’s all my fault for not telling you in advance and causing you to be cursed.”
Lan Lang’s voice was filled with guilt and self-blame.
“But it doesn’t matter.
“This curse can be removed.
“I’ll immediately bring you to a Buddhist holy land and get an eminent monk to help you resolve the curse.”
Qin Chuan was stunned. He couldn’t believe that he had really been cursed.
“Since the Buddhists have a way to resolve this, since my fourth senior brother is a Buddha, the Immeasurable Buddha Seal from him should be able to remove this curse too!”
“But, if I were to undo the curse myself, Lan Lang would definitely be suspicious.
“He’s so smart and is an Immortal King. He has too much experience, so he can’t be fooled.
“It’s better not to expose myself!”
Qin Chuan gave up on this idea and decided to leave this curse alone for the time being.
After a while, the barrier around the Arena of Life and Death began to dissipate.
The spectating disciples gradually came to their senses.
When they saw the barrier dissipate, it meant that the demonized Fan Zhibao had been eliminated.
“Zhu Xiaoming won?”
All sorts of emotions rose in the hearts of the disciples as they looked at the green figure in the distance.
They could imagine that there would be a huge commotion in the sect today.
At this moment, the elders in the sky flew down.
They wore complicated expressions.
At the start, they also looked down on Qin Chuan, not believing that he had any chance of winning.
However, they did not expect him to be so well-hidden. Even after Fan Zhibao turned into a fiend, he was still able to defeat him.
Qin Chuan glanced at these elders and bowed politely.
“Disciple Zhu Xiaoming pays his respects to the elders.”
Seeing how polite Qin Chuan was, the elders were overjoyed.
“Xiaoming! You sure hid yourself well. You completely fooled us old fools,” teased the blue-robed elder.
The other elders surrounded him and greeted him with smiles and amiable voices.
“Are you injured? Do you need our help? Do you need to rest”…And more!
They began to cotton up to Qin Chuan.
After all, judging from the strength that Qin Chuan had revealed, there was a high chance that he would be ranked on the Chosen Roll.
Once he was, he would have a chance of reaching the Martial Monarch realm in the future.
Even if he didn’t, as an Immortal King, he would an existence they had to look up to forever.
Qin Chuan understood what they meant.
After sending these elders away, Qin Chuan flew into the air and scanned his surroundings.
Those disciples did not leave.
Qin Chuan said loudly, “Senior brothers and sisters, junior brothers and sisters, I, Zhu Xiaoming, will hereby clarify some matters.
“Firstly, let me explain the grudge I shared with Fan Zhibao. Why did we have to resolve it on the Arena of Life and Death?”
“Due to time constraints, I’ll keep it short and not go into too much detail.
“The reason why Senior Brother Fan hates me is because he thinks differently of Gu Mengyao, Senior Sister Gu.
“But actually, I merely shared a few more words with Senior Sister Gu.
“You must have been to the Dao Technique Chamber and know Senior Sister Gu’s service att.i.tude.
“I just came to the headquarters, so I don’t know many things. It’s not too much to ask Senior Sister Gu about them, right?
“To thank Senior Sister Gu, I bought a hairpin in the night market to express my grat.i.tude.
“But it was because of this hairpin that Senior Brother Fan misunderstood.
“Senior Brother Fan believed that I had an indescribable relations.h.i.+p with Senior Sister Gu, so he made a move on me at the Dao Technique Chamber.
“If Senior Brother Fan had been willing to listen to my explanation, things wouldn’t have turned out this way.
“I’ll just ask the Senior Brothers here.
“If you are going give the girl you like a present, will you give a second-hand goods?
“You have to know that the items in the night market in the sect have basically been used before being sold. It’s possible that they have been through many hands.”
At this point, all the males present shook their heads.
“Giving second-hand goods is courting death!” said a male disciple.
“If anyone dares to give me a second-hand good, I’ll immediately slap it on their face and see if he still dares to do it again!” a female disciple replied.
Qin Chuan was overjoyed to see everyone’s strong reaction.
He gestured for everyone to be quiet.
After they calmed down, he continued, “Let’s put that aside for now.
“Even if I did like Senior Sister Gu enough to pursue her, it’s not Senior Brother Fan’s place to interfere.
“Senior Brother Fan had been rejected several times by Senior Sister Gu, but he was prideful and petty. He refused to admit it and even threatened her other suitors to give up using force.
“I believe some of the Senior Brothers present have also wooed Senior Sister Gu before!
“Please raise your hands if any of you have been threatened by Senior Brother Fan. ”
With that, hundreds of disciples raised their hands.
Qin Chuan continued, “Initially, I wanted to use a life-and-death duel to get Senior Brother Fan to personally explain the reason.
“Unfortunately, his mental demon had acted up and he ended up becoming a fiend.
“Actually, Senior Brother Fan isn’t a bad person by nature. He was just too deep in love and took the wrong path. ”
“Here.
“I also want to apologize to Senior Brother Fan. After all, if I didn’t appear, you wouldn’t have become a fiend.
“I don’t know much about you. Since you are from the Sword Dao office, I shall protect the glory of the Sword Dao office in the future.”
As soon as these words were spoken, all the disciples of the Sword Dao office were instantly moved.
Touched, they all cheered Zhu Xiaoming’s name.
