When I heard Xia Mingyuan say the Great Charm of Mercy, I subconsciously thought it was some sort of buddhist spell, but wasn't this spell supposed to be used to save people? How did it become a Killing technique?
”What is the Great Charm of Mercy?”
Xia Mingyuan looked at Zhou Xi Xi and Captain Long, and decided to speak the truth. With the current situation, if both sides hid themselves from the public, then there was nothing they could do about it.
”The Great Charm of Mercy is actually a very bright spell that amplifies people's sympathy or empathy for the weak. The use of this spell on the wicked can awaken their conscience and thereby persuade them to be good. ”
From what he said, I felt that my guess was correct, but why did it become an evil spell that killed these students?
”The Curse of Great Mercy is bright in itself, but some people use it in evil places. You should know that everyone's endurance is limited. If I enlarge your sympathy to the extreme, and then use my illusion techniques to let you see some absolutely terrible scenes, you would eventually be unable to endure it and the final result would be suicide. ”
Xia Mingyuan explained with a sense of helplessness and pity. To be magnified by the use of the Curse of Great Mercy to the point of suicide, it meant that the students who were given the skill were usually very kind-hearted, only then would they be easily piqued. It was truly a pity.
After all, the spells that Captain Long and Zhou Xinxi had used were limited. They felt that such a thing was too shocking, so they sat quietly by the side.
Seeing that Xia Mingyuan was so sure, he must have known about it when they were at the police station's entrance, so he was confused.
”Master, you don't seem to only know about it now? ”You already knew that when we were on the road, didn't you?”
Xia Mingyuan nodded. He had already been suspicious when Zhou Xixi said it was all about girls committing suicide, so he got his friend to help him check if there was anyone in the Mage Market who bought the appropriate herbs. When his friend replied, he was sure of it.
For a moment, everyone was silent. I looked at the cup in my hands, the water in it was crystal clear, but those students who possessed such a pure heart did not receive the repayment they deserved.
”Master, did you say that the pill they needed had anything to do with the Great Curse of Mercy?”
When Feng Tian Yu and Chu Wei Ran heard my question, they knew what kind of pill I was talking about. Their eyes were filled with regret, but they didn't know how to start the conversation, and Xia Ming Yuan was also hesitating.
”The curse of great sorrow has nothing to do with those pills. They are called Longjian and are extremely complicated to make. The required ingredients are also very complicated, some are precious, and some are even ordinary.” The most precious out of all of them is a primer made from indestructible soul materials. ”
I didn't quite understand what he meant. Feng Tian Yu had only told me about the ingredients for this pill as well as its production, but he didn't answer the question that I wanted to ask directly.
I was just about to ask again when Zhou Xi snatched it away from me. She pulled on Feng Tian Yu's sleeve and asked with a trembling voice, ”What is an immortal soul?”
I looked suspiciously at Zhou Xixi. I felt that she was both excited and incredulous at the same time.
Feng Tian Yu saw that she might have already guessed it, so he looked at me and helplessly said: ”If a person commits suicide, then it would be against the rules of the underworld, and this kind of ghost cannot be reincarnated and will not die out. Then, it will be called the Immortal Soul.
I listened to him, thought for a moment, and suddenly froze. What Feng Tian Yu meant was that Gina had used the Great Charm of Mercy to make these girls commit suicide because she wanted their souls to be used as a primer to create the immortal soul!
”He killed so many people just for a single medicinal pill!”
