Chapter 17 I wish him to be struck by lightning and die during his tribulation.
"Taiji Hall? How could it be Taiji Hall?!"
"It's all over, it's all over, it's all over... The curse of the Taiji Palace, who the hell can break it?"
"I'm afraid my life is ruined!"
"..."
Seeing everyone wailing, Wang Wu was also deeply disturbed and pointed at the shop owner in disbelief.
"You're actually from the Taiji Palace?"
Why are the people from Taiji Palace causing trouble in Yongjie Town?
"Don't the gatekeepers of Eternal Calamity Town and the ghost messengers of Fengdu care?!"
Wang Wu was filled with righteous indignation while trying his best to back away.
Only when he retreated behind Mei Shiyu and stood close to Li Tingyun did he feel a little more at ease and regain some confidence.
He cursed repeatedly, "This is outrageous! There isn't a single good person in the Taiji Hall, and they all resort to such insidious tricks! Especially that guy surnamed Li, messing around with some Yin-Yang Spell, crippling people's cultivation, he's so damn immoral! He's utterly heartless and devoid of conscience!"
He became more and more agitated as he spoke, patting Li Tingyun on the shoulder and venting his anger: "I wish he would be struck by lightning during his tribulation, that he would never break through his mental barrier, that even drinking cold water would cause him to choke, and that even farting would hit his heel!"
In a fit of anger, Li Tingyun lashed out.
He said, "Take your dirty hands off."
Wang Wu: "Oh."
At this moment, Mei Shiyu had already taken action and subdued the arrogant shop owner.
The rolling pin, which would deter anyone from going west if it was pointed east, was shattered into dust with a casual strike.
The people present looked at each other in bewilderment. Was dealing with the shop owner really that simple?
The way Mei Shiyu effortlessly dealt with him gave them the illusion that "I could do that too."
But an illusion is just an illusion. The fact that the shop owner could cast a curse on them without them even noticing is enough to show that he is a highly skilled cultivator. Not to mention that they have lost their magic power and dare not act rashly, even if they hadn't been affected, they wouldn't dare to say that they could definitely defeat the people from the Taiji Palace if they had plenty of magic power.
Mei Shiyu unleashed a magical spell, raising sharp icicles from the ground to firmly bind the shopkeeper's limbs, rendering him unable to move freely and thus depriving him of the power to resist.
"Who are you...who exactly are you? How could you break the Yin-Yang Curse?!"
The shopkeeper struggled desperately, pulling at his arms and legs, cursing, "You think you can trap me with all these icicles on the ground? You're dreaming..."
No matter how much he talks, he can't get away with it anyway, just like a clown.
"Immortal...Immortal Venerable, do you have any way to remove the curse from our bodies?"
Mei Shiyu turned to look at everyone and said, "I also don't know how to break the Yin-Yang Curse."
The crowd didn't believe him. He recognized what kind of spell it was, and even the person who cast the spell couldn't do anything to him. How could he not know the secret method to break the spell?
"Could it be that the Immortal Venerable has some concerns and is unwilling to tell us?"
"We are all disciples of the cultivation world, but we do not know which sect or school the Immortal Venerable is from. If you consider us to be fellow cultivators, please enlighten us and generously bestow your teachings..."
"Immortal Venerable, if you don't know how to break the Yin-Yang Curse, then why hasn't your magic power disappeared?"
"..."
"Because I wasn't under a curse."
Mei Shiyu turned to look at the shopkeeper, "Taiji Palace is a sect of its own in the cultivation world. The cultivation techniques they practice have a distinct characteristic, which is that they are 'extremely sinister.' For example, the 'Star-Picking Steps' you used before."
"After the shop closed, while everyone was confused and panicked, you used the Star-Picking Steps to teleport and place the curse mark on their backs, almost without anyone noticing... except for me, of course."
"The Star-Picking Steps originated from the Daoist 'Big Dipper Steps,' but it is even more unpredictable and bizarre. Apart from the Taiji Palace, I can't think of any other cultivation method in the world that combines the characteristics of both the immortal and demonic paths."
Mei Shiyu turned around and said coldly, "Taiji Hall, Star-Picking Step... Such techniques are indeed powerful, but unfortunately, cultivating both immortality and demonic arts is going against the heavens. There will never be another Li Tingyun in the world. Those who learn from him will die; there is no other way out."
"Hey!"
Wang Wu let out a lament, "Does this mean that those of us cursed are destined to return to the mortal world for the rest of our lives, living obediently as ordinary mortals, with no further connection to the world of cultivation?!"
Li Tingyun listened to his words and said, "Not necessarily. The Yin-Yang Curse is not without a way to break it, and you are not completely beyond saving."
"Oh ho, little kid, you're so young but you've got a big mouth! Do you even know who the Taiji Hall is?"
Wang Wu even wanted to flick his forehead.
Unexpectedly, his wrist was grabbed and slammed onto the table. He struggled several times to no avail, and was horrified.
This kid... he's incredibly strong!
They actually suppressed him, a Taoist adult, to the point that he couldn't move.
"Keep your hands and feet clean!"
Li Tingyun shook off his arm, and Wang Wu nearly fell on Mei Shiyu.
Fortunately, he didn't.
Li Tingyun met Mei Shiyu's gaze and pressed on relentlessly, "He struck first, I was acting in self-defense."
Wang Wu, supporting his nearly herniated disc, turned around to have a serious discussion with him about this matter, but unexpectedly Mei Shiyu pulled him to the corner of the wall, causing his body to involuntarily turn around.
I stood facing the wall, and the tip of my nose was almost flattened by the earthen wall.
Great men don't concern themselves with details, and Mei Shiyu didn't pay much attention to his feelings.
He looked directly at Li Tingyun and asked, "Yuanbao, do you know any way to break the Yin-Yang curse?"
This is a problem that everyone urgently needs to solve right now.
"Yes, young man, if you have any brilliant ideas, please share them with everyone!"
"We're in dire need of your help. If you do, we'll remember your kindness."
"Saving a life is more meritorious than building a seven-story pagoda!"
"..."
"The solution is very simple."
Li Tingyun interrupted the noisy chatter and answered:
“As you all saw, that fox spirit didn’t reveal her true form from the beginning. Even though she was under the Yin-Yang Curse, she still had the power to maintain her human appearance. This shows that the Yin-Yang Curse didn’t have much of an effect on her.”
"The reason is that she cultivates demonic arts, while the Yin-Yang Curse only targets cultivators of immortality."
Li Tingyun's words enlightened everyone: "Therefore, as long as you give up cultivating immortality and turn to cultivating demonic arts, you can regain your magical power."
"What kind of crazy method is this?! How could I possibly abandon the path of immortality to cultivate the path of demonic power?!"
"We are all disciples of an upright immortal sect, how could we follow your advice and take those crooked and evil paths!"
Li Tingyun let them argue and, after a while, said, "Actually, there are other ways."
"What? Is there another way? Tell me quickly!"
"Oh dear, this is so urgent! Young man, please tell me quickly!"
"As long as you can help us, we can give you whatever reward you want. It's not like you're losing out."
"Okay, you said it yourselves."
Li Tingyun had been waiting for this very sentence, and immediately began to negotiate: "I can tell you. Just give me the spirit stones you gave to the shop owner in line earlier."
A collective gasp rippled through the crowd. Good heavens, yet another opportunist has emerged!
After going around in circles, it turns out they were waiting for them here...
Mei Shiyu frowned slightly, "Yuanbao?"
Li Tingyun blinked and transmitted his voice, "Master, I was just joking."
He turned around and said, "A gentleman loves money, but he acquires it in a proper way. I am also a gentleman, so I won't take more from you. One spirit stone per person is enough. No more demands, no bargaining!"
Mei Shiyu: "..."
