The fervent Haori True Qi burned relentlessly, devoid of any taint of curse.
28Please respect copyright.PENANA31dwlx2fno
This inscrutable sensation left Xander Thorne somewhat displeased. He called upon the Oracle for guidance.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAuxafGnlAKI
"Oracle, can thou locate the wielder of this power?"
28Please respect copyright.PENANAsIHV7hbHpL
The Oracle's voice resonated swiftly.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAqK99sI1Wim
Ding... O seeker, aye, 'tis possible, but 'twill cost 1000 Fates.
28Please respect copyright.PENANANanLa6Mq75
"So much?"
28Please respect copyright.PENANAogAoSymdnj
Xander Thorne's lips twitched. After numerous instances of significant Fate expenditure, his remaining balance dwindled.
28Please respect copyright.PENANALfCtOmtO5a
Reluctantly, he expended the last remnants of his Fate. He needed to ascertain who was cursing him from the shadows.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAdqhsz7Aqti
His field of vision gradually shifted like a vortex. Through layers of mist, it ultimately settled on an unknown cave.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAEU883rAR58
The cave was rather simple, containing only essential spiritual stones, medicinal herbs, and a pill furnace. Seated on a mat was a man in plain attire, who would easily blend into a crowd unnoticed.
28Please respect copyright.PENANA6FpzfgvnHh
Is it him?
28Please respect copyright.PENANARbzvsX7mrg
Xander Thorne pondered silently.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAu41res8Cuw
The man's countenance was furrowed with worry, his demeanor profound as if he had experienced countless ages of sedimentation.
28Please respect copyright.PENANARb5mIpVP1j
All occurrences in the fragments of memory seemed as if they had never transpired.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAdgC9ECzJ88
Only seen by Xander, Sirius Calloway gazed at him with concern, clearly distressed.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAqmtYFQBPCs
"Master! Art thou well? Why standeth thee like a statue?"
28Please respect copyright.PENANAhPTQipXWFr
"This is dire. Hath thy cultivation addled thy mind?"
28Please respect copyright.PENANAZaQBkvtpjJ
Xander Thorne remained composed, somewhat exasperated.
28Please respect copyright.PENANARtixUIjPaK
"Silence, Sirius."
28Please respect copyright.PENANAuqkbuUm638
Sirius was momentarily stunned, then his expression turned ecstatic, changing as quickly as flipping a page. He hastily spoke.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAuyO9axTNzY
"Master! What ails thee?"
28Please respect copyright.PENANAkOES2gSxG4
"I've been shouting myself hoarse, yet thou standest like a statue."
28Please respect copyright.PENANAH3UKKS4t3e
Xander Thorne couldn't be bothered to explain further. He gazed ahead, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the Thorne family estate.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAE42qw4Asvr
After integrating the fragments of memory, Xander Thorne realized that the mysterious black qi that had invaded his body originated from this black tome!
28Please respect copyright.PENANAEUMIlL79Si
The man in green controlled the black tome with his True Qi, and as the True Qi receded, the tome gradually calmed like an ordinary book.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAhL7E1Ue5lB
The young man's forehead was covered in cold sweat. Suddenly, his complexion changed, turning pale as if interrupted by something, his face drained of color.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAK9PKU2taU8
He opened his eyes abruptly, his internal Qi in disarray, coughing up blood.
28Please respect copyright.PENANADPXihW19IL
A look of incredulity crossed his face as he muttered incessantly.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAXOFqPotuMO
"How could he have detected my cursed tome and disrupted it?!"
28Please respect copyright.PENANATDRqLRIFPu
"This is impossible!"
28Please respect copyright.PENANAOq8OcSdeug
"Ever since I obtained this cursed tome, it has brought me nothing but fortune, killing without leaving a trace, and I've never been detected by anyone!"
28Please respect copyright.PENANA3544qEpfhB
"This scion of an ancient clan is truly terrifying!"
28Please respect copyright.PENANAUtamK0fi1t
The young man thought, his heart still in turmoil.
28Please respect copyright.PENANANEQoVd9kNk
Meanwhile, Xander Thorne witnessed everything clearly.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAATjQrIcd19
A cursed tome?
28Please respect copyright.PENANA4COllvkPvs
Xander Thorne frowned, scrutinizing the young man's face.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAmiSUkDZauy
He had never seen this person before, and even if Sirius informed Xander Thorne that he was the son of Thornius, with some connection to the Calloway family, Xander Thorne would still try to see if he could forcibly take Sirius away despite offending the divine scion of the Thorne family.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAlrygqEiikn
The scene fell silent for a moment, and Xander Thorne didn't mind waiting a few minutes.
28Please respect copyright.PENANA8ZTh4rOrux
If he could obtain the Heavenly Fire, it would be for the best.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAiAkN9e2h53
This transaction was still very profitable.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAaNXDoTPHbA
At this moment, an inexplicable force poured into Xander Thorne's body without anyone noticing, carrying a thick evil curse, as if to melt his blood and flesh.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAUtjUk3oD4N
Only Xander Thorne perceived this targeted force.
28Please respect copyright.PENANA3MDfXDkWrV
His expression changed, but the curse was not strong enough. After entering the Oracle's Sky Divine Body, it was firmly locked down by Xander Thorne's Oracle's Sky True Qi, unable to erode him in the slightest.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAWegIHqrxaE
"What is this power?"
28Please respect copyright.PENANAUz7uBkCh1h
Xander Thorne tried to contact the black aura and was immediately met with a strong death aura.
28Please respect copyright.PENANA7M4A1QVaIM
Merely touching it for a moment caused his lifespan to decrease by three years!
28Please respect copyright.PENANA7IbnVev4Tc
Not only that, he felt a sense of foreboding, as if enveloped by some misfortune. He activated his Oracle's Sky True Qi, attempting to expel this force, but it clung to him like a bone maggot, persistent and unyielding.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAJwhoGx0oIW
His Oracle's Sky Blood surged violently, unleashing an intensely hot force that submerged the black aura.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAfH7eH4rlgg
The extremely evil curse immediately emitted cracking sounds, and the misfortune dissipated along with it.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAosTWzVtgmK
At this moment, Xander Thorne understood what was happening.
28Please respect copyright.PENANAsNZoVCCNzq
Someone was cursing him?
28Please respect copyright.PENANAssPVpk4FQR
Even Sirius couldn't perceive Xander Thorne's unstable blood and Qi, asking, "What's wrong?"
28Please respect copyright.PENANAch6PMvW1tN
Xander Thorne shook his head, his eyes flashing as he said, "Nothing."
28Please respect copyright.PENANAPETxLnPUBA
Even Sirius couldn't perceive the power.
28Please respect copyright.PENANA39jfLFFXt7
Who was cursing him behind his back?
28Please respect copyright.PENANAfAEpOjcDu4
This extremely evil force, if it weren't for a cultivator like Xander Thorne, would probably go unnoticed by ordinary people and would unwittingly afflict them.
