"How could there be a Three Talents Gathering Evil Formation here?"
This was truly unexpected...
Dealing with just these few savage sorcerers was already difficult enough, and now a traditional Daoist Arts formation had appeared! It was enough to drive me to drink!
However, what puzzled me was—who exactly set up this Three Talents Gathering Evil Formation?
There was a story recorded in the Mausoleum Secrets. It is said that after Liu An, the King of Huainan from the Han Dynasty, was executed for rebellion, his son built the Vermilion Sand Tomb to suppress him. However, the sorcerer responsible for this matter created a false impression of a tomb collapse using feng shui techniques while setting up the Cursed Tomb, burying a group of craftsmen alive. The plan was to use their Killing Intent to nourish the main tomb's corpse of the King of Huainan. In the end, the resentment of those dozens of living people transformed into the Blood Corpse King!
Based on this account, I felt cold sweat running down my back, and my hair stood on end. It seemed they intended to use Nikola, this vampire, to refine the Blood Corpse King? The vampire's constitution is itself the best vessel for a Blood Corpse. Once integrated with the Three Talents Gathering Evil Formation, it would mean that this Blood Corpse King would be incredibly terrifying!
Thus, those who suppressed Nikola back then were not acting for righteousness but had ulterior motives. If that were the case, then Captain Cook's sudden appearance that night was also premeditated and organized. Was their goal to eliminate me?
So, what exactly is behind the setup of the Three Talents Gathering Evil Formation on this deserted island?
With these thoughts swirling in my mind, I suddenly became clear-headed as an image gradually took shape in my mind. Damn it, could it be that both the Nine-Tiered Corpse Tower and this Three Talents Gathering Evil Formation were created by the same person?
No wonder I thought so; both the Nine-Tiered Corpse Tower and the Three Talents Gathering Evil Formation were astonishingly similar in technique—they were both lost arts, one for nurturing ghosts and the other for nurturing corpses!
However, there was still one mystery unsolved.
Why was Nikola able to escape physical constraints and appear in spirit form, asking me to do his bidding? Logically speaking, with the cultivation provided by this Three Talents Gathering Evil Formation, Nikola should become immensely powerful; he should relish and enjoy it. No one in this world would refuse to become stronger.
However, Nikola's action of unsealing the corpse left me utterly perplexed. In fact, it wasn't long before I fully understood. The saying "One does not kill for oneself" is an absolute truth. Although Nikola is cunning and resourceful, he ultimately cannot match the mysterious figure.
What intrigues me the most now is the purpose behind the mysterious figure's continuous arrangement of formations. Is it meant to deal with me? No one would use a missile to swat an ant! Perhaps it targets a certain organization, but these formations take hundreds or even thousands of years to become effective; by then, that organization would likely have vanished without a trace!
"Interesting!"
A bold thought emerged in my mind. Perhaps the runes on the meteorite are key to recording these strange formations. Moreover, from the signs, there are at least several dozen meteorites like mine. Only by gathering these meteorites can we decipher the information inscribed upon them.
Perhaps this Three Talents Gathering Evil Formation also has a piece of meteorite as its energy source, continuously driving the Killing Intent to maintain its operation. At this thought, I couldn't help but smile with satisfaction!
"Brother Xia, your smile is so charming!"
"Oh! That's just how handsome I am..." Before I could finish my sentence, I suddenly realized that the tone had changed again! I turned around to take a closer look and asked, "Wang, are you feeling okay?" "Hateful!" "Hahaha! I still prefer you like this..." "I've always been like this!"
I knew that the Wang I liked had returned—the real girl, not that ruthlessly cold female assassin. Perhaps some external stimulus had restored her original self. And with the disappearance of that external force, she transformed back into the adorable Wang.
We exchanged smiles and walked hand in hand through the forest.
Having spent quite some time on this island, I had a good understanding of its feng shui. As we passed through dense woods and reached a clearing, I looked down the mountain and my expression changed drastically; I couldn't help but gasp in shock.
My goodness! This is a truly ominous place! And it shows signs of human alteration!
While there are indeed places of danger in nature's mountains and waters, due to the balance of yin and yang, often within such perilous areas lies a piece of auspicious land. However, if someone knowledgeable in feng shui secretly intervenes with nature's landscape and suppresses this balanced auspicious land, then it becomes the Eye of the Vortex.
For example, the great literary classic "Journey to the West" once mentioned that on Flower-Fruit Mountain, there was a divine stone surrounded by barren land, yet it could nurture medicinal herbs like Lingzhi. This was considered a blessed land, which gave birth to Sun Wukong. However, the Eye of the Vortex before me appeared to be a place of great fortune at first glance, but upon closer inspection, those things resembling Lingzhi were actually fungi.
As ancient texts say: "Nine signifies 'demon,' with soil that is hollow and fragile; the Dragon God is shallow. Ten signifies 'withered,' with skin and fur scorched and hard, dry and unyielding; the Dragon God is fierce and defeated." This land was a fusion of demon and withering. The fungi thrived on filth, absorbing resentment to grow.
For Yang Persons, these fungi were more lethal than deadly poisons like Blood Seal or Hundred Herbs Poison; they would dissolve upon ingestion, leading to death. For Yin People, however, they were supreme treasures, akin to ginseng or Lingzhi for the living.
With this in mind, some mysteries could be swiftly unraveled. The deaths of those Tribal Indigenous people were sacrifices made to establish this Corpse Raising Ground. Nikola was the Blood Corpse King specially cultivated by that organization. As for those indigenous Dark Sorcerers, they were merely products of that organization, tasked with protecting the formation and providing a continuous source of Killing Intent. They could eliminate anyone if necessary.
Now, as I recalled those six Zombies and Dark Sorcerers, I finally noticed some details I had previously overlooked. The six Zombies and Dark Sorcerers bore distinctly Asian features—specifically resembling typical individuals from the Yunnan-Guizhou region. They were far more formidable than that previous group of Cannibalistic Natives!
However, one thing I could confirm was that the Dark Sorcerer was definitely not an appointed guardian of that organization. His target was me; after being killed by the bowl, I had observed his corpse, which emanated an aura only visible to members of the Taoist Sect. This aura was completely out of place on this island, indicating that the longer one stayed on this island, the faster their body would weaken. No wonder I saw how frail that ghost keeper appeared!
Indeed, not long after, an event occurred that validated my suspicions!
If this were true, it meant that the true guardian Dark Sorcerer of the deserted island had never appeared; perhaps he hadn’t even noticed me or was waiting for us to approach so he could strike decisively.
Regardless of the reason—whether for Xiao Xiao or to dismantle Nikola—I was determined to eradicate this Three Talents Gathering Evil Formation from existence once and for all.
