My Disciples Are All Villains
chapter-93

Mingshi Yin was taken aback by Pan Zhong’s words. He rolled his eyes and said, “Pan Zhong, you better not be trying to scare me.”

Lu Zhou raised his hand. He stopped Mingshi Yin and gestured for Pan Zhong to continue.

Pan Zhong acknowledged it and continued to say, “I’m not making this up. When I was learning the trade back in Clarity Sect, I read the records on witchcraft in the library. Witchcraft is divided into white witchcraft and black witchcraft. A cultivator will wander down the wrong path if they cultivate with malicious intentions. I was young and brash back then. I was obsessed with improving my cultivation base as quickly as possible so I had looked up witchcraft. Alas, everyone in Clarity Sect guarded this secret tightly. On top of that, I couldn’t find any seniors who had learned witchcraft and were willing to teach me...”

Zhou Jifeng asked curiously, “Is that why you chose the Three Yin Style?”

“The Clarity Sect’s elder only told me that I’m suited for the Three Yin Style, but he didn’t tell me that I had to pair it with the Six Yang Technique! I only learned about the balance between Yin and Yang after I met Old Senior Ji!” Pan Zhong said.

“And?” Zhou Jifeng asked.

Pan Zhong continued to say, “Speaking of witchcraft, witchcraft restrictions are similar to cultivation seals. They would slowly corrode a cultivator’s meridians and block them. In fact, the Clarity Sect’s Seal Block Technique is created based on a witchcraft technique as well.”

The others nodded. This was why Pan Zhong was so confident and volunteered to seal the Dark Knights’ cultivation bases.

Pan Zhong said, “In any case, the sooner we undo the witchcraft, the better it is for Mister Fourth. In Mister Fifth’s case, her cultivation base has been completely sealed. The spellcaster must’ve cast the seal from a close distance, that’s why it took effect immediately. For this reason, the outcome will be the same regardless of when we undo the witchcraft.”

Zhou Jifeng asked, “Since you know so much about witchcraft, do you know of any way we can break the spell?”

Pan Zhong nodded. “I remember reading about a method to undo the spell. It’s also the most trusted and reliable method. This requires the spellcaster to undo the spell itself. The second method is to cultivate Zen according to Buddhism or to cultivate Daoist methods. Once the victim’s cultivation base surpasses the spellcaster’s cultivation base, the victim would be able to undo the spell. However, this method is infeasible. After all, how can one continue to cultivate if one’s cultivation base is sealed?”

“So what you mean to say is that there’s nothing we can do about the spell on Mister Fourth?”

Pan Zhong shook his head. He cupped his hands together at Lu Zhou and said, “I’m afraid that the Pavilion Master is the only one capable of undoing it.”

‘Pavilion Master?’

Little Yuan’er and Zhou Jifeng turned to look at Lu Zhou.

Pan Zhong explained. “The third method is to have a cultivator who’s much more powerful than the spellcaster forcibly break the spell. Otherwise, the conflict between witchcraft and Primal Qi would cause the cultivator’s meridians to break, and the cultivator would implode and die. Hence, the Pavilion Master is the only one who can do this.”

Although Pan Zhong’s explanation made sense, Lu Zhou was speechless. Outwardly, he remained as steady as Mount Tai, but inwardly, he thought to himself, ‘What should I do?’

Everyone’s eyes were trained on Lu Zhou at this moment.

Mingshi Yin kowtowed and said, “Please undo the Restriction for me, master!”

Lu Zhou stroked his beard as he tried to think of a way to solve this.

Since there were witchcraft traps around the Measure Heaven River’s Fish Dragon Village, this means he could not simply send people from the Evil Sky Pavilion there. After all, if someone like Mingshi Yin fell prey to it, there was no doubt the others would be more susceptible to falling into the trap. It seemed like he had no choice but to personally investigate the Fish Dragon Village.

As for undoing the witchcraft Restriction, Lu Zhou was stumped. He had no good solution for this. After all, he could not possibly tell these people that his cultivation base was only in the Brahman Sea realm.

At this moment, Duanmu Sheng who had received news about what happened arrived in the great hall. After learning the ins and outs, he instantly pleaded, “Master, although Junior Brother frequently makes mistakes, he’s been doing a good job lately. Please save him, master!”

Zhou Jifeng and Pan Zhong pleaded on Mingshi Yin’s behalf as well.

If this was in the past, Ji Tiandao would have most likely leaped into a great rage and kicked all of them out. However, it was undeniable that Mingshi Yin had been doing a good job lately. Although Mingshi Yin’s loyalty was not as stable as Duanmu Sheng or Little Yuan’er, he was dependable when it came to completing missions. All Mingshi Yin needed was a little discipline.

Lu Zhou considered all of these for a moment before he finally waved his hand and said, “Come with me.”

Mingshi Yin was overjoyed when he heard this. He rose to his feet and followed Lu Zhou like an obedient child.

Meanwhile, the others sighed in relief when they heard Lu Zhou’s words. They watched as Mingshi Yin followed Lu Zhou into the hidden chamber.

Little Yuan’er smiled as she said confidently, “Since master is dealing with the witchcraft spell, there won’t be any problem!”

Zhou Jifeng nodded and said, “Mhm. The Pavilion Master has a profound cultivation base. This minor spell is nothing to him.”

Pan Zhong nodded as well, but he said nothing.

Duanmu Sheng glanced at the two of them and said, “Since Old Fourth is afflicted by witchcraft, both of you will do.”

“What do you mean, Mister Third?” Pan Zhong and Zhou Jifeng were puzzled.

Swoosh!

Duanmu Sheng raised his Overlord and said excitedly, “Spar with me...”

Pan Zhong. “...”

Zhou Jifeng. “...”

...

Inside the hidden chamber.

This was Mingshi Yin’s first time in the hidden chamber. After all, no disciples were allowed to enter the hidden chamber. In the past, they had thought their master was hoarding treasure in here. Since there was no ventilation in the hidden chamber and their master usually spent all his time cultivating in the hidden chamber, it was impossible for them to sneak a peek. It was only natural that he was excited now that he was granted entry. He looked around curiously; there were various secret tomes lying on the table and an assortment of weapons on the racks. There were sabers, spears, rods, and maces. There were even weapons of other designs lying in the corner. He was awed by this scene. It seemed like his master had collected many treasures throughout his millennia of domination.

“Sit down.” Lu Zhou pointed at the floor.

With that, Mingshi Yin quickly regained his senses. He hastily sat with his legs crossed and focused his eyes on one spot.

Lu Zhou stroked his beard and stood behind Mingshi Yin. ‘My cultivation base is only in the Brahman Sea Eight Meridians realm. Moreover, it’s not the true Brahman Sea Eight Meridians realm. My avatar is only the Mighty Four Quadrants. There should be no problem for me to examine his body, but it would be nigh impossible for me to break the spell.’

At this moment, Lu Zhou discovered Mingshi Yin was sweating profusely. It seemed like the Restriction was acting up. ‘Based on his condition now, it seems like the spell has already restricted 80% of his cultivation base.’ He raised his wizened hand and gently pushed it against Mingshi Yin. His Primal Qi flowed through his palm into Mingshi Yin’s meridians.

Mingshi Yin was shocked. ‘Master’s cultivation base is indeed profound. He’s capable of suppressing his Nascent Divinity Tribulation realm’s Primal Qi to such a gentle level.’

The gentler it was, the lower the probability that it would hurt Mingshi Yin’s meridians.

Lu Zhou controlled his Primal Qi and inspected Mingshi Yin’s meridians. He gently tapped Mingshi Yin several times.

Tap! Tap! Tap!

Lu Zhou increased his output.

Mingshi Yin was a cultivator who had connected his eight meridians a long time ago. This amount of Primal Qi coursing through his meridians would not do him much harm.

However, when Lu Zhou’s Primal Qi came in contact with the witchcraft spell, he felt a retaliating force.

Mingshi Yin frowned and immediately broke out in sweat.

Lu Zhou thought to himself, ‘Ah, so this is the power of witchcraft.’ He tried to bypass the Restriction to inspect Mingshi Yin’s other meridians. However, as soon as he tried to do that, the witchcraft spell seemed to gain a will of its own and suddenly attacked.

“Preposterous!” Lu Zhou pulled his hand back. However, the witchcraft’s power shot out from Mingshi Yin’s back like a surge of energy.

Lu Zhou waved his arm instinctively. He instantly went into the state after he had comprehended the Heavenly Writing. From his dantian to his sea of Qi, from his brain and eventually, to his entire body, a faint blue light appeared and repelled the attack of the witchcraft spell. It did not stop there. It rode on the momentum and entered Mingshi Yin’s back.

Bang!

Mingshi Yin fell forward from the impact. At the same time, he felt the strange power from the witchcraft spell in his body disappear.
