Chapter 1018: Chapter 655 Turning the Evil Meteor Fire_4 Chapter 1018 -655 Turning the Evil Meteor Fire_4 As he faced off against a skilled opponent, the Evil Qi could even erode the adversary’s divine sense, allowing the Evil Qi to invade the body and drive them into madness or frenzy. In the great hall at the time, the Fire Buddha exploited the Evil Qi to “terrorize” several Enforcement Leaders, then with a swipe of his fiery blade, he slaughtered them all. The Demon evilness was formidable in both group combat and single kills. “To massacre a large number of people…” Mo Hua furrowed his brows and shook his head. With such a heavy blood debt, this was certainly not a path he could follow. However, what caught his interest was the process of “transferring Evil Qi.” Transforming the “blood debt” into “Evil Qi.” This method seemed to contain elements similar to “causal transformation.” Killing was the cause, Evil Qi the effect. Transform murderous intent into Evil Qi, transform cause into effect. It was as if it harnessed a thread of the rules of “Heavenly secret karmic consequences,” then combined it with the actions of slaughter unique to the Demon Path, to create this spell point. After some thought, Mo Hua decided not to destroy this secret manual. He didn’t have to cultivate the Evil Qi, but the process of “transferring Evil Qi,” which involved the transformation of cause and effect, was worth exploring. And next was what Mo Hua anticipated most, the secret manual for the Meteor Fire Forbidden Art! The Meteor Fire Skill’s manual was a thick stack, and rather than a manual, it seemed more like “Forbidden Art research notes.” It was densely packed with text and illustrations, all relating to the records and cautions of the Forbidden Art. This included its taboos, drawbacks, and the difficult challenges that could not be easily overcome. Mo Hua glanced through and suddenly had an epiphany. The Meteor Fire Skill was a Forbidden Technique with immense spiritual power and devastating impact, but it also had extremely severe drawbacks. The Fire Buddha, in order to cultivate this spell, killed many people, integrating their flesh and spiritual power into himself, specifically into the two “flaming hearts” in his chest. The more people he killed, the stronger the flaming hearts became, the more terrifying the spell’s power, with an almost infinite supply of Evil Power. No wonder he looked like a Monster Beast bursting with demonic power. Hard to kill, and death would not come easy. Even if he was injured, as long as he continued to kill people, he would quickly recover. And those two hearts of his were, in fact, a pair of innately paired Evil Artifacts. They were also the embryos of a Golden Core Realm Cultivator’s own Magical Treasure. Golden Core Cultivators would refine their own Magical Treasure. To advance from Foundation Establishment to Golden Core, one must cultivate the embryo of their own Magical Treasure in advance. This was what the Instructor had told him during a Tao Cultivation class. The Fire Buddha’s Magical Treasure embryo, his two “flaming hearts,” was also the core of the Meteor Fire Forbidden Art. As for the Magical Treasure embryo, Mo Hua in his current state, still couldn’t fully comprehend it. He was just at the Foundation Establishment Initial Stage, and some distance away from reaching the Golden Core Realm. Knowledge about cultivating his own Magical Treasure was not something he needed to delve into for the time being. As for the Fire Buddha’s Meteor Fire Skill… Mo Hua wasn’t going to learn it, couldn’t learn it, so there was no need to spend too much time pondering it. What he needed now was only a stable and controllable “Skill Pattern.” And within the Fire Buddha’s two flaming hearts, this pattern structure was contained. After all, those two “hearts,” as embryos of his own Magical Treasure, were implanted into the cardiac veins – if they were not stable, the Fire Buddha would have “self-detonated” and perished long ago. “Stable and controllable Skill Pattern!” Holding this objective, Mo Hua “discarded the dross to extract the essence,” and focused on studying the pathways of Fire Spiritual Power flow within those two “hearts” of the Fire Buddha. He also deduced several fundamental “Skill Patterns” of Fire Spiritual Power flow based on these pathways, essentially “drawing the gourd according to its model.” These Skill Patterns were all very complex, however. But Mo Hua was not afraid. His Divine Sense was strong, he didn’t fear complex spells, the more complex the better. After deriving these Skill Patterns, Mo Hua, unable to contain his eagerness, sat in the carriage and experimented with each one. Starting with the simple Fireball Technique. Mo Hua began to condense the Fireball Technique, based on this complex “Skill Pattern” that came from the Forbidden Technique, then launched it towards the ground. Through the entire process of shooting the Fireball, Mo Hua began to understand the variations of the Skill Pattern. How powerful it was, whether stable or controllable, whether the Skill Pattern was prone to instability, and so on… After about a dozen trials, Mo Hua finally found one, comparatively, the most stable and easiest to control Fireball Skill Pattern. Mo Hua was elated and really wanted to experiment with the Fireball fusion, and craft a “Spiritual transformation” of the Fireball Technique to see its power. But after some thought, he held back. This wasn’t the Sect, if he made a mistake and lost control of the spell, and injured himself, there wouldn’t be an Elder to save him… Mo Hua suppressed his restless heart, thinking he would test the power of this spell after returning to the Sect. … The carriage continued to amble along. The scenery on both sides of the road was pleasant, winding through the pathways between Spirit Fields, passing through Immortal Cities, and as evening approached, they arrived outside Qingcheng Mountain. Crossing the mountain and continuing a little longer, they would reach the Qianxue State Boundary. The setting sun painted the mountain, and the dusk sky was ablaze with color. Mo Hua leaned on the window, watching the sunset. As he watched, Mo Hua’s heart abruptly lurched. The sunset resembled fresh blood. Mo Hua blinked, and when he looked again, the colorful clouds remained resplendent; the earlier “bloody” vision was merely his illusion. Mo Hua felt uneasy. He tried using Heavenly secret Calculation, and at that moment, saw a bright red, fiery karmic chain that was like blood covering his body. Mo Hua’s pupils dilated, and without an iota of hesitation, he immediately leapt out of the carriage. In just a few breaths of time, the carriage he had been riding in exploded violently, a fierce fire engulfed it, reducing it to ashes. Mo Hua landed and looked forward, only to see a figure at the crossroads ahead. Tall and broad, with a kind face but clothed in blood-red Kasaya, his eyes ablaze with murderous intent. It was the Fire Buddha! His gaze was icy, his voice indifferent, “Young benefactor, allow me to escort you on your journey!”
