Yi Yuezi was a Taoist, a Taoist who practiced Taoist magic.
The sect he belonged to was called the Jiuyou Cult. This sect had first appeared 1,500 years ago, during the chaotic war between the various countries. At that time, the Central Plains had experienced the division of Western Wei, and after the collapse of the entire dynasty, the vassal states were neighbors. Every day, there was endless war and slaughter. It could be said to be hell on earth.
At that time, people were most easily bewitched. It was also the time when all kinds of evil sects were emerging.
The so-called Jiuyou Cult was a cult that grew up during the war. It was located in the southwest of the Central Plains, where the culture of divination was very developed.
The first cult leader was Jing Yueze, a Grand Sorcerer of the southwest. It was said that Jing Yueze was born with vertical pupils. When he was in his teens, he had already mastered all the witchcraft that had been passed down since ancient times. He called himself the Sorcerer King.
Of course, the so-called witchcraft was just another name for Taoist magic by the local people. However, the people in the southwest of the Central Plains lived in the eight thousand miles mountain range all year round. They were constantly threatened by all kinds of poisonous insects and beasts. The witchcraft here was completely different from the Taoist magic in the Central Plains.
The Sorcerer King Jing Yueze's talent and cultivation in witchcraft and Taoist magic were indeed incredible.
It was said that when he observed the sky at night, he predicted that although the world was still in turmoil, the real dragon of the Central Plains had already appeared. The Miao, Long, Yue, and other kingdoms in the southwest were about to face a bloody disaster. Therefore, he gathered the Grand Sorcerers of those kingdoms and established the Jiuyou Cult, hoping to fight against the real dragon with witchcraft.
With Jing Yueze's mastery in the field of witchcraft, and his reputation in the local area, he soon bewitched a large number of foolish people in the local area. The influence of the Nine Evil Cult soon swept across the entire southwest region. Even the clan leaders and kings of the small kingdoms treated Jing Yueze like a god.
With the fear and respect brought by witchcraft, the Sorcerer King Jing Yueze became the real king of the southwest.
A few years later, his prophecy of the real dragon came true. The unparalleled overlord who founded the Eastern Wei for three hundred years, known as Emperor Xi, was born. His power soon swept across the entire Central Plains.
But when they attacked the mountains in the southwest, they found that Jing Yueze had already disappeared into the mountains with the disciples and wealth of the Nine Evil Cult. In the end, they could only massacre the small kingdoms and young clans in the southwest and claim a new territory for Eastern Wei.
No one knew where they went, and no one knew what happened to them in the end. But it was clear that the Shaman King's purpose in establishing the Jiuyou Cult was not to fight against Emperor Xi. But what his real purpose and plan were had been buried in history, and no one knew.
However, the nature of the Nine Evil Cult could be seen when the army of the Central Plains swept through the southwest.
The witchcraft of the Nine Ghost Cult, or rather, the witchcraft that Jing Yueze had mastered, believed that negative emotions such as anger, resentment, and fear were the best source of power, and the human body was the medium of the human soul and power.
Through all kinds of insects, swords, ice, fire, and other unimaginable cruel torture, a person's negative emotions could be stimulated. When a person was full of resentment, hatred, and other negative emotions, absorbing his flesh and blood would allow one to inherit the power stimulated by the other person, and absorb the tortured soul in the other person's body.
There were three schools of thought: absorbing souls from beasts, absorbing souls from humans, and absorbing souls from insects.
This was actually another way of applying life and some of the principles of the world. But because of the environment and culture, the witchcraft of the Nine Evil Cult was very cruel and violent.
Just like the Netherworld Centipede cultivated by Yi Le, he skinned a living person and locked them in an iron box. Then, he used a secret method to drive insects into the box to bite the subject. The more miserable and painful the subject's life was, the higher the success rate of the Netherworld Centipede's cultivation.
Therefore, the cultivator would often choose those who were born with disabilities and miserable lives. They would even create and torture some unfortunate people in advance and use them as materials to cultivate the Netherworld Centipede.
And the longer the Netherworld Centipede could survive in the iron box, the stronger the Netherworld Centipede would be after it grew up.
After successful cultivation, the Netherworld Centipede would have a ghostly face, which looked like the face of the subject when he was screaming and struggling. Not only would it be able to fly freely, but it would also be able to attack with sound waves, and it would be a killing weapon that could swallow gold and bite iron.
In the end, the Netherworld Centipede cultivated by the Nine Evil Cult had a life cluster that could absorb the waves of the human brain. And the more intense the emotions, the better the absorption effect. But obviously, compared to the positive emotions such as excitement, happiness, and happiness, the efficiency of obtaining negative emotions after torture was much higher.
…
Back to the present, in the sky above the pirate base, a dark cloud descended from the sky. In Zuo Zhicheng's left eye, it was made up of countless tiny black insects. It was obvious that Yi Le had chased after him and found his location.
Zuo Zhicheng looked down at his clothes and thought to himself, 'Is it the residual heat of the flames on my body that allowed him to find me with his psionic vision?'
Yi Le's Taoist technique was strange and powerful. On the contrary, Zuo Zhicheng not only suffered internal injuries and temporarily lost his sense of balance, but the Blood Curse was also activated faster, causing his limbs to become more and more numb.
Everything seemed to be going in the worst direction, but Zuo Zhicheng's eyes still did not show any sign of despair. He just rolled a few times on the roof, and then fell to the ground. After falling to the ground, he quickly crawled towards the direction of the warehouse.
A stream of black smoke descended from the sky, continuously emitting ghostly screeches. It was as if countless ghosts had gathered together, faintly forming a ferocious face.
He glanced at the direction of the warehouse, and seemed to be able to clearly perceive Zuo Zhicheng's location through his psionic vision.
He circled a few times above the warehouse, sneered, and rushed towards the door of the warehouse. Countless sounds of metal clashing could be heard, and flames rose from the place where the black cloud and the door came in contact.
A few seconds later, the iron door of the warehouse was opened by the Yellow Spring Dragon. The black cloud was like a living fish, squeezing through the hole and flying towards Zuo Zhicheng's location.
The warehouse was pitch black, and there were piles of goods, weapons, and food everywhere. There was no light, and with all kinds of obstacles, the effect of the naked eye was minimized.
However, with his psionic vision, he could still see a figure hiding in the depths of the warehouse, crawling forward. However, as the residual heat disappeared, the figure in his psionic vision became fainter and fainter.
"Do you think you can escape?"
The densely packed Yellow Spring Dragons said this sentence in unison, full of hatred and coldness, as if the voice came from the depths of hell.
The next moment, the black cloud turned into a black dragon and rushed towards the direction of the figure.
