Chapter 179 - Chapter 179: Profound Yin Soul-Nourishing Art, One Body, Two Souls

[Oh my goodness, this fated person who just connected temporarily, she's absolutely gorgeous! I feel like she's a celebrity!]

[Not necessarily. Maybe she's from the cosplay scene, or the traditional Chinese style (Gu Feng) community; there are many beautiful people in those circles too.]

[But right now, this isn't the time to discuss that. For Master to make an exception and connect, it probably isn't a good sign.]

As soon as these words appeared, everyone fell silent.

Though unpalatable, these words were entirely true. What kind of reputation did this livestream have? It was notoriously known as a gathering place for unlucky souls.

So, for a moment, no one refuted it; they implicitly sighed with regret!

"M-Master, is there something you need me for?"

This new fated person was also a long-time viewer of the livestream, and naturally, she was aware of the unspoken rules of the channel.

Her face was a little pale, and her heart couldn't help but feel uneasy, but even so, she had connected.

After all, while the livestream had a high frequency of incidents, no good person had ever suffered.

Those who ended up in trouble were invariably those who were morally corrupt themselves.

The fated person dared not say anything else, but at least she could guarantee she had never done anything illegal or disorderly. Connecting, for her, wouldn't necessarily be a bad thing.

After reassuring herself thus, she actually calmed down.

"Little sister, have you encountered anything strange recently?"

Yao Yao now fixed her gaze, only then clearly seeing the fated person's physiognomy. She saw a dense cloud of Yin energy shrouding her brows.

The intensity was so thick it was like ink in an inkstone, so much so that even her facial features were somewhat obscured.

Such an ominous physiognomy, no wonder even her name carried a trace of Yin energy. Yet, at this level, logically, something should have happened long ago, but the fated person seemed completely unharmed.

This strangeness caused Yao Yao's expression to subtly shift.

"Strange things?" The fated person was momentarily stunned by the question, then shook her head.

"No, not at all. I've been participating in a performance in Xitang recently. I interact with many people and events every day, but everything has been very normal. I haven't encountered any peculiar people."

"Master, why do you ask? Is there something wrong with me?"

The fated person wasn't foolish. The Master proactively connected with her, and then asked such a question; it couldn't be without reason.

She herself was a freelancer. Because of her love for traditional Chinese culture and her family's comfortable financial situation, she had no worries and naturally entered the Hanfu community very smoothly. After all, though this circle was niche, some authentic garments were extremely expensive.

If one's family background wasn't solid, one simply couldn't afford to partake.

Because of her love for Hanfu, she would participate in many offline events whenever she had free time. This Xitang event was long; she had been there for a few days already and expected to stay for another week.

The livestream viewers, hearing her explanation, were instantly amused.

[She really guessed correctly; she is from the traditional Chinese style community.]

[But it seems the fated person hasn't realized she's in trouble, which is a bit strange.]

Before, the fated people in the livestream would always be in trouble, frantically and anxiously begging the Master for a solution.

This sudden reversal, where the fated person felt fine but the Master said there was a problem, truly felt like the sun rising from the west.

"Little sister, please provide your birth characters (Ba Zi)."

Yao Yao saw the latter's bewildered expression and knew she wouldn't get answers by asking directly, so she decided to deduce.

As for asking for the birth characters, it wasn't that she couldn't deduce them herself, but rather to verify. After all, she had never encountered a situation where the person involved was completely unaware.

"Okay, I'll send them directly to you." The fated person was straightforward; she didn't ask why, and directly sent a private message backstage.

After Yao Yao finished reading and nodded, golden lotuses quietly bloomed in her eyes, her gaze then falling squarely on the fated person.

At this glance, her gaze instantly paused, for she saw a spiritual entity hidden within the fated person's body.

"Hmm?" That spiritual entity was not normal; it was filled with resentment, evil, and malevolence.

Clusters of Yin energy, originating from it, spread like creeping vines towards various parts of the fated person's body.

Normally, given its rate of expansion, the fated person's body should have been completely taken over long ago. But strangely, it hadn't. Every time these vines touched a crucial vital point, they recoiled as if burned.

Yao Yao activated her pupil technique, then peeled back the true face of that spiritual entity.

It was a face starkly different from the fated person's!

"One body, two souls?" Yao Yao deduced from the latter's physiognomy that it was not the same entity as the fated person.

The bond between the two was very deep, and there was an undeniable blood relationship. The only possible explanation was one body, two souls, both of whom were born of the same mother.

"Profound Yin Soul-Nourishing Art, what a malicious technique!"

Yao Yao carefully observed the vital points where the Yin energy recoiled, and saw various incantations sealed there.

These spells, like small suns, operated within the vital points. When the spreading Yin energy entered, it melted away instantly, like winter snow meeting scorching sun.

Subsequently, the incantations, utilizing the profound mysteries of Yin-Yang rotation, transformed the Yin energy into Yang energy, nourishing the fated person's physical body and soul.

It's important to know that women are considered Yin, and their five internal energies are prone to imbalance. If rectified by proper Yang energy, Yin and Yang remain balanced, and the body will be healthy. Conversely, there will be many ailments.

This explained why the fated person felt no discomfort at all.

However, normally, women are innately less able to generate Yang energy; this is due to their constitution.

But there are always external methods, and the so-called Profound Yin Soul-Nourishing Art is one such method.

It's just that its core is too malicious; it requires the soul of a sister born of the same mother to serve as nourishment for the other. When the latter's fetus develops consciousness, the sister's soul is stripped away.

Then, it is sealed within the other's body.

And infants are naturally pure; when one suddenly dies young, their resentment naturally surges sky-high.

Not only that, but it is also sealed within its closest kin, daily stimulated by spells, its resentment churning endlessly, continuously tormented, thereby providing nourishment to the other party.

At first glance, it seemed to make sense and cause no problems.

But the power of the sealed party would grow stronger and stronger.

If a Mystic Master did not regularly reinforce the seal, there would inevitably be a backlash from the malevolent soul, completely cultivating a Great Ghost.

Clearly, judging by the fated person's appearance, she had no idea that a kindred soul was sealed within her body.

Even her family might not know, as a normal family would never engage in such a sinister and harmful act.

The lives of two children—they were both lives!

Therefore, the spells on the fated person were deliberately cast by someone, and such a setup was precisely for the purpose of raising a ghost.

And at present, the cultivation of that infant spirit was already close to that of a Great Ghost. The spells originally laid upon her were on the verge of being unable to suppress it. When the spells eventually collapse, and the Great Ghost emerges, the fated person herself would naturally be the first to die.

Thus, Yao Yao saw her surrounded by Yin energy, with the physiognomy of someone whose end was near.

Yet, the fated person herself was completely unaware.

This was a big problem!

Yao Yao's brows furrowed tightly.
