Chapter 1144: Chapter 1143: Another Use of Curse Technique (Monthly Ticket Lottery)

Lu Yang didn’t have many acquaintances at Western Paradise Temple, and Time Immortal was one of them. However, this minor issue didn’t necessitate bothering Time Immortal, so Lu Yang contacted Abbot Ming Yu directly. Through Time Immortal, Abbot Ming Yu had long been aware of Lu Yang’s identity.

Originally, when Lu Yang had started sending people to Western Paradise Temple, Abbot Ming Yu had been quite thankful, for Lu Yang had helped Buddha Country to eliminate hidden dangers.

However, as Lu Yang sent more and more people, Abbot Ming Yu’s gaze towards him started becoming strange, as if asking why he kept sending people this way, and whether he had any grievances against Buddha Country.

Although Lu Yang had once tried hard to explain that the issue lay in the management level of Buddha Country and wasn’t related to him, obviously, he couldn’t convince Abbot Ming Yu.

Fortunately, when Lu Yang found the seventh clue, he finally located the main party involved.

Lu Yang was terrified that the seventh clue would directly point to Western Paradise Temple; that would truly be hard to explain.

"I’m telling you, the public security in Buddha Country is just not up to par," Immortal Fairy defended Lu Yang and tried to persuade everyone.

"Since coming to Buddha Country just to investigate a curse technique, we have uncovered so many people involved. Look at our time in Great Xia, when did we ever encounter such situations?"

"Right, right!" The various patterns on the white robes swam about, echoing seriously in agreement with Immortal Fairy’s point of view.

...

"Bone Layman, is it? Are you going to confess the events obediently, or shall I have to beat you up first before you do?"

"You have captured six Combined Great Abilities? Who are you trying to fool!" Initially, Bone Layman was stunned and then became furious.

How was that possible? A Combined Great Ability was an incredibly rare being, one he could scarcely dream of meeting; aspiring to connect with their kind was almost impossible, let alone capture them, and more so, six at once!

The sound of Bone Layman’s ringing bell grew louder and louder, almost deafening. Even though he was at the Initial Stage of Spirit Transformation, he mastered a highly rare curse technique, which even those in the Late Stage of Spirit Transformation didn’t want to confront!

Now, he was spreading the curse technique through a Recording Orb, observing the reactions post-curse, gaining new insights, and taking his curse technique to a higher level, becoming invincible among those in the Divinity Transformation Stage!

However, Lu Yang was not at all afraid of the curse technique; he could use "Heavenly Reversal" to change causality and avoid the curse technique, even if he weren’t an Immortal.

"You will be plagued by bad fortune!" Bone Layman shouted as he frantically shook the bell.

The moment the power released from the bell touched Lu Yang, it cracked in half with a snap!

"How is this possible!" Bone Layman was startled, continuously spitting blood, as his life-bound bell had backfired!

This showed that the other party’s fate was extraordinarily noble, utterly beyond his reach!

Before Lu Yang even made a move, the Qiongqi totem on his white robe drifted to his chest, eyes glaring. Bone Layman’s body stiffened, hair stood on end, as if targeted by an Ancient Demon, unable to move.

Bone Layman was terrified to the core, daring not to move at all, screaming internally, what kind of technique was this, utterly unheard of, who exactly was the other party, and why were they after him?!

Lu Yang completely ignored Bone Layman’s existence, letting him stand as punishment. He strolled around the cave, observing Bone Layman’s living environment; the cave was messy, indicating Bone Layman did not care much for his living conditions.

Continuing, Lu Yang picked up a book from the table and flipped through two pages: "It seems this is your insight into the curse technique."

"This certainly is about spreading the curse technique through a three-dimensional Recording Orb," Qinghe examined the book with Spiritual Sense, easily understanding the principle and frowned in displeasure.

"If this method falls into the wrong hands, I fear it could be spread widely and cause great harm."

Jin Caiwei glared fiercely at the book, the Qiongqi Clan had finally made some money through the Recording Orb, and now someone was using it for evil, causing so much harm, truly despicable.

If not for the sake of her image, she would have transformed back to her original shape and torn the book to shreds with a growling howl.

"There, there, Senior Caiwei, this book is actually a great treasure." Lu Yang said, soothing Jin Caiwei, feeling the fierce energy emanating from her.

"Huh? A great treasure? What do you mean?" Jin Caiwei was confused by Lu Yang’s comment.

"I’m thinking of using the Recording Orb to spread the Curse Technique. That seems like a good idea."

"What?" Qinghe thought she had heard wrong.

"Senior Qinghe, the Curse Technique has effects like making people sick, right?"

"Yes, what about it?"

Lu Yang, stroking his chin, asked a question that Qinghe had never considered: "It is said that Magic Spells are neutral and don’t have an inherent good or evil, so can I use the Curse Technique in reverse to bless someone with a long life?"

Qinghe looked perplexed, as Curse Techniques had always been used to bring misfortune to others.

But the issue was that Lu Yang was not just daydreaming. From the principles of the Curse Technique, it seemed possible to bring good fortune to others as well.

"It seems... possible?"

Encouraged by Qinghe’s affirmation, Lu Yang’s eyes shone with excitement, "Then could I use the Recording Orb to spread the Curse Technique and bless everyone with health, longevity, and long life?"

Qinghe hissed, her expression grave.

"It seems... possible too."

"Master, I’ve captured the person." Lu Yang brought the person to the Western Paradise Temple.

Master Ming Yu’s eyes twitched; he didn’t even want to count how many people Lu Yang had captured, and asked tentatively, "That’s all, right?"

"That’s all!"

"That’s good then." Master Ming Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Every time Lu Yang came, he would capture someone or a pair of people, as if Lu Yang knew exactly where the problems were and headed straight for the targets.

"Good indeed, spreading the Curse Technique, Benefactor Lu can rest assured, this person will be handled by our Western Paradise Temple."

"You say our brothers were having a good talk in the secret room, how were we discovered!"

And they still didn’t know who had captured them.

"Who knows, I’ve issued so many receipts in secret and never got discovered, but this time we were!"

"When I was captured, I heard the person talking to himself, saying that he was originally looking for the cursed Recording Orbs and then traced them to us from the records of bulk purchases."

"So, this is a calamity without cause!"

"Alas, tough luck, what can we do but accept our fate."

With a creak, the cell door opened, and Bone Layman was pushed in.

"Oh, got a new one here. Your Cultivation Level seems pretty low. What did you do?" The prisoners, feeling that their own luck was bad enough, looked for others in similarly unfortunate situations to feel a bit better.

Bone Layman grinned sheepishly, "Hello, brothers. I was idly trying to combine the Curse Technique with the Recording Orbs, and that got me caught."

Upon his words, the cell fell dead silent.

"How, how so?" Bone Layman grinned sheepishly, feeling that the way these people looked at him changed after he explained.

A group of Combined Great Ability Cultivators looked hostile and slowly forced Bone Layman into a corner.
