Chapter 20: The Family-Toppling Master

  "This 'qi' thing, originally is something that people with more sensitive spiritual awareness can perceive more easily. It's like some sonic attacks on TV shows - the more you understand rhythm, the more damage you'll take; whereas those who are completely clueless will be affected the least."

  Although these are fabricated, they are not entirely unreasonable. At this time, the thick killing aura on Xue Qi Lin's body was also the same. Ning Yuan felt it most deeply. Gu Feng Lin didn't have such a strong intuition, but he still felt somewhat uneasy and shifted his body, pulling at his sleeves. The jade symbol on his chest suddenly emitted a warm flow that was not easily detectable, which made him feel much more comfortable.

  Although Gu Fenglin's feelings are not as intuitive as Ning Yuan, the evil spirit is different from sound waves. Whether you perceive it or not, the harm to people is the same.

  This time, Ning opened the wooden box and didn't rush to cover it. Instead, he stared at the blood Qilin inside, which looked even more eerie under the lamp light. The blood Qilin's scarlet eyes seemed like a vampire's, making one's heart tremble involuntarily.

  Ningyuan was a bit better, but Gu Fenglin took one glance and hastily retreated. This thing's evil aura wasn't trivial; just that one look made Gu Fenglin somewhat unbearable. He felt dizzy, as if a ferocious Qilin beast with bloodshot eyes was charging towards him, its entire body churning with blood, its mouth wide open, looking incredibly lifelike.

  Although this thing gives people a strange feeling, the thick aura of death makes Ning Yuan also somewhat suffocated. However, at this moment, Ning Yuan's eyes are full of joy, as if he had seen some rare treasure.

  Although Ningyuan didn't like to give people advice on Feng Shui and fortune-telling, he was quite fond of the mysterious and secret methods of the Xuanmen. After all, these things could no longer be explained by science, and they had a somewhat otherworldly feeling that any normal person couldn't resist the temptation of such strange powers.

  Nowadays, Ningyuan has already entered the secret method and naturally knows the benefits of this blood qilin in front of him. Such a dense and murderous instrument is absolutely something that people in the mysterious door dream of. Once you use your heart to warm it up, this thing will become an extremely powerful magical instrument.

  The so-called Faqi is an object used by Taoist practitioners to divine the wind and water, predict fortunes, and engage in magical battles with others. It's like a warrior's weapon. Faqi doesn't distinguish between treasured objects and evil spirits; as long as it can be used for my benefit, it can be called Faqi. This is similar to what ancient classic fantasy novels call "magic treasures", regardless of whether they are good or evil.

  This Blood Qilin is made from highland blood jade, and it's quite spiritual. Compared to ordinary jade artifacts, its quality is much better, making it a top-notch choice for superior magical instruments.

  Furthermore, this Blood Qilin was nurtured in the tomb, buried with the dead for a thousand years, and stained with the deceased's blood. The evil energy gathered and did not disperse, becoming extremely dense. As a magical instrument, it would be invincible in battle.

  Things in this world originally have no real good or bad distinction, all things are two-sided, too much good fortune is also a disaster, too much bad luck doesn't necessarily mean it's a catastrophe. This instrument of misfortune is like a double-edged sword, if used well it becomes an excellent tool for attack and defense, but if used poorly, it harms others and oneself.

  Objects with a strong evil spirit can not only be used as an attacking instrument, but also as a treasure to calm the house. As long as it is placed in the right position, like a treasure, it can also protect the home from harm and deter petty thieves.

  This Blood Qilin is invaluable and can't be measured by money. Although Ning Yuan told Jiang Shihao the truth earlier, he didn't mention anything about the Xuanmen's affairs. Having this thing in his hands isn't as simple as a few hundred million yuan. With it, when encountering a master of spiritual awareness who has achieved shape-shifting, he can at least retreat unharmed and avoid being humiliated. If he launches a sneak attack, he might even be able to severely injure the opponent.

  At this time, the Blood Qilin cannot be called a magic weapon and can only be considered a fierce beast. To use it as a magic weapon, a lot of means are needed to warm it up with care.

  Ning Yu stared intently at the blood qilin in the wooden box, and for a moment, he couldn't help but feel more and more fond of it. As the evil energy emanating from the blood qilin began to spread, even Gu Fenglin, who had a jade amulet protecting him, felt somewhat unbearable. He hastily pulled Ning Yu: "Young Master, snap out of it! If you let the evil energy spread, your house will be haunted tonight."

  Ningyuan suddenly came to his senses, closed the lid of the wooden box, and couldn't help but feel a little frightened. Just now, he had almost gotten lost in it, and if Gu Fenglin hadn't pulled him back in time, he would have probably fallen into temptation and been unable to extricate himself.

  Just as Gu Fenglin said, in just a short while, his entire house was filled with yin energy, and it began to drift out of the house. If these yin energies were allowed to drift out, his house would really be haunted.

  No time to linger, Ning Yu hastily got up, and with a wave of his hand, he took out another jade gourd from his bosom. He crushed the jade gourd into powder and scattered it into the air.

  A strange scene suddenly appeared, with the jade gourd powder scattered by Ningyuan floating in the air, as if phosphorus powder had encountered high temperatures, crackling and popping in mid-air, producing tiny sparks, looking very eerie.

  After all this, Ningyuan finally took a deep breath, his body softened and he slumped onto the sofa. Gu Fenglin's mouth was agape for quite some time before he said with a sorrowful face: "Young Master, you're really reckless! In just a short while, you've wasted a jade calabash and several luxury Mercedes are gone."

  It's no wonder that Gu Fenglin sighed, the jade calabaza that Ningyuan just took out is obviously the same as the one given to him, both are disposable treasures that can ward off evil and bring good fortune.

  This thing, in the eyes of those who don't know its value, is at most a delicate jade calabaza, worth at most several tens of thousands. But to a connoisseur, it's no less than a rare treasure, worth five or six hundred million. Just by glancing at the jade qilin, one would have wasted such a precious item, which is worth more than several luxury BMWs.

  "What a waste."

  Gu Fenglin's heart was bleeding, he was not capable enough and couldn't warm up the precious instrument. It was estimated that Ning Yu wouldn't find it easy to warm up a single precious instrument now either. These things were probably all treasures left behind by their ancestors, yet they had been shattered into powder by his own junior uncle, the newly appointed head of the sect, and scattered in the air, leaving no remains.

  Ningyuan had just drawn a symbol in mid-air, shattering the jade gourd. It looked simple, but it required spiritual energy to activate the surrounding evil energy, consuming a significant amount of true energy. His face turned slightly pale and it took him a while to recover. He stretched out his foot and kicked Gu Fenglin, scolding: "You're really inexperienced. This Blood Qilin is worth at least a hundred jade gourds, even if it's not the best one. No wonder you can't enter the secret method yet."

  Although he had destroyed a one-time treasure, Ning Yuan did not feel the slightest heartache at this moment. As he said, the value of the Blood Qilin was much higher than that of the Jade Gourd. What's a piece of Jade Gourd? Although it's difficult to warm up and requires encountering suitable jade stones, spending a year or two, he can still warm up a few pieces, but this Blood Qilin is not something that can be encountered casually.

  Not to mention that he is now only a spiritual consciousness, even if he breaks through the spiritual consciousness and transforms into a yuan god in the future, it will be absolutely impossible for him to cultivate warmth. In front of Xue Qi Lin, Yu Hu Lu is at most an old bicycle.

  Gu Fenglin didn't really not know that the Blood Qilin was more valuable than the Jade Calabaza, it's just that he didn't have a Jade Calabaza either. There was one item that Ning Yuan had given him earlier, but Ning Yuan kicked it away. He smiled reluctantly and approached, saying: "Young Master Uncle, I know you're a rich man, but I'm a poor person, can you please take pity on me and give me another treasure?"

  "It's gone." Ning Yuan waved his hand and said, "It's settled then. Once you master the secret technique, I'll give you a magical artifact. Don't think about it before that, hurry up and leave, I'm tired too and don't feel like nagging you."

  Gu Fenglin was somewhat displeased, but still with a gloomy face, he was pushed out of the door by Ning Yuan and got into the car to leave. After seeing Gu Fenglin off, Ning Yuan returned to the living room, holding the wooden box in both hands and went upstairs.

  Originally, Ning was somewhat impatient and planned to deal with the Blood Qilin tonight, but unfortunately, he was previously confused by the Blood Qilin's evil energy and almost got hurt on his way. After that, he also dealt with the evil energy in the house, which had already injured his spiritual consciousness. At this time, he did not dare to rashly warm up and could only temporarily store the Blood Qilin away, went to the bathroom to take a shower, changed into a loose Tang suit, came to the old Taoist's portrait in front of the couch, sat down, and began to adjust his spiritual consciousness.

  PS: The first volume is over, the next one is "Mysterious School Doctor". Ning Yuan will enter Fuxi University and officially become a ordinary school doctor. Let's see what kind of wonderful stories will happen to this young man with superb medical skills and mysterious powers as the leader of Xuanmen sect, hiding in this university campus.
