Under One Person: My Inner Realm Connects to All Worlds!

Chapter 232 Evil Tower Artifact
Han Yun's eyes turned cold; how could he allow them to succeed?
His movements were as swift as lightning, closing in so quickly that his actions were completely obscured, with only three rapid, muffled thuds heard.

Snapped!Snapped!Snapped!
Han Yun's fingertip had already precisely placed on the three people's dantian (energy center).

A surge of pure and vast Qi instantly rushed in, forcefully dispersing the suction force they had gathered and completely sealing off their meridians.

The three men shuddered violently, their eyes instantly losing their sparkle. Like dead dogs with their spines removed, they collapsed limply to the ground, unable to move even a finger, their eyes still filled with disbelief and horror.

Han Yun didn't even look at them, and walked straight to the black stone tower.

The stone tower continued to emit an eerie, dark light, attempting to further erode the earth's veins. The dark red runes surrounding the tower writhed like living creatures, exuding an sinister aura.

Han Yun stretched out his finger and gently touched the tower.

Om-!
A cold, resentful, and negative emotional shock surged from his fingertips into his mind, attempting to corrupt his spirit.

However, Han Yun's divine sense was as vast as the ocean and as solid as a rock. This impact was like a mud ox entering the sea, failing to cause the slightest ripple.

"Little tricks."

Pure yang golden light emanated from his palm, transforming into intricate restrictive runes that instantly enveloped the entire stone tower.

The dark light on the tower seemed to have encountered its nemesis. It flickered and struggled violently for a few moments before quickly dimming. The writhing runes also froze and were completely sealed.

"What an exquisite evil artifact, and it's been specially refined." Han Yun's sharp eyes discerned some clues.

"This refining method is somewhat similar to a variant of the 'Wu Nuo' lineage that has been passed down from the Tang Dynasty, but it also incorporates some characteristics of the art of exorcism. It is ambiguous, drawing on the strengths of many but going astray, resulting in something that is neither fish nor fowl."

He put away the sealed stone tower, and then Han Yun looked at the three people who were slumped on the ground and the earthquake catfish that was still being tormented by the pure yang fire needles and whose aura was weak.

"Lord Ashiya? A Japanese Onmyoji?"

Han Yun walked up to the gray-clad man at the head of the group, looking down at him with a calm yet suffocating gaze. "Tell me everything you know."

The man in black gritted his teeth, his eyes filled with venomous resentment yet also a hint of fanaticism: "Don't even think about getting any information from me! I will serve my country with my life! Long live the emperor!"

"Ah."

Han Yun chuckled lightly, unsurprised.

He crouched down, extended his finger, and a wisp of golden light, as fine as a hair, slowly emerged from his fingertip and gently touched the man's brow.

Han Yun has now thoroughly understood the Mahayana Bodhicitta Sutra; it is nothing more than capturing the mind's thoughts, which is still quite easy.

But Han Yun clearly didn't want the other party to have an easy time.

The man's body stiffened abruptly, his eyes instantly filled with immense fear. He felt as if his soul had been thrown into a furnace, an indescribable burning pain spreading from the depths of his soul, a pain a thousand times more terrifying than any physical suffering.

Even more terrifying is that his consciousness is being forcibly stripped away and read!
A moment later, Han Yun withdrew his finger. The man's eyes were glazed over, he was foaming at the mouth, and he had fainted.

Han Yun frowned slightly, having gleaned some information from the man's fragmented memories.

They are indeed from Japan and are members of a tightly structured organization. They belong to a high-ranking Onmyoji named Ashiya, but Ashiya is only one of the twelve chief priests of this organization.

Above the twelve divine lords, there is also a Grand Palace Master!

Their purpose in infiltrating the Central Plains was precisely to gradually break the seal on the Ghost-Binding Well. Their plan was cautious; they intended to slowly erode the seal over several months, allowing it to "naturally" loosen, and ultimately trigger a large-scale "earthquake upheaval" at a specific moment, taking advantage of the chaos to completely release the myriad ghosts beneath the Ghost-Binding Well.

And that Ashiya-sama seems to have close ties with certain ancient families in Japan, and his ambitions are far-reaching.

However, these low-level executors knew nothing about the specific details of the plan or the true identity and location of that Ashiya-sama.

As for that stone tower, its origin is even more extraordinary. It was a branch tower that one of the twelve divine lords took from the Eight Directions One Universe Tower and refined.

The Bahong Yiyu Pagoda is a collection of 238 artifacts dismantled from various parts of China by Japan when the country was destroyed. These artifacts included a white marble kylin relief from the Imperial Palace, the foundation stone of the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, and a giant stone from the Jade Emperor Peak of Mount Tai.

The Yin-Yang Dao has an evil technique called "suppressing the soul with stones," which attempts to block the fate of the Chinese nation by suppressing cultural relics. The name of the pagoda, Ba Hong Yi Yu, is taken from "Liezi: Tang Wen," but it has been altered to mean ruling the eight directions.

Moreover, the stone inside the tower was tempered and condensed with evil spirits by thousands of spiritual bodies. It goes without saying where the spiritual bodies inside the tower came from. It can be said that it is a ghost tower. The vast resentment and evil energy directly dyed the original tower body black.

Although this branch tower does not have the effect of blocking the fate of the nation, it can still pollute the earth's veins and stir up the evil energy within them.

Sure enough, that tiny little country still harbors the ambition to destroy us!
Han Yun used the same method to search the souls of the other two people, and the information he obtained was largely the same, with only a few details added.

They also had accomplices carrying out the same operation at a node in the northwest, with both sides operating simultaneously and supporting each other.

"Northwest direction..."

Han Yun stood up, his gaze turning northwest. He had to get there as soon as possible, otherwise, once they got wind of it, they would definitely evacuate or destroy the evidence immediately.

He raised his hand and cast three talismans, which transformed into green light ropes that tightly bound the three gray-clad men. Then he walked up to the earthquake catfish.

The earthquake catfish sensed the pure and vast aura emanating from Han Yun, and shrank back in fear, letting out a mournful cry.

"A spirit formed from the karmic energy of the earth's veins? I'll spare your life for now; you might be useful in the future."

Bad things naturally have their uses, and Han Yun had a better idea than to simply devour it with the inner space.

Han Yun pointed his fingers like a sword and inscribed a simple restriction on his forehead, completely sealing his demonic power. Then he bound him with talisman ropes as well.

After doing all this, he contacted Zhang Xiaolian via communicator, briefly explained the situation, and asked him to immediately send people to receive the prisoners and elves and keep them under strict guard.

“Little Ancestor, what about the Northwest Node…” Zhang Xiaolian’s voice was urgent.

"I will go immediately."

After Han Yun finished speaking, his figure flashed and disappeared from the spot, turning into an imperceptible stream of light and speeding towards the northwest direction shown on the earth vein map.

The mountains and forests rushed past beneath his feet.

Hope it's not too late.

These rats in the gutter, now that they've extended their claws, none of them will escape.

Han Yuntian opened his Heavenly Eye to its limit, carefully capturing the subtle flow and unusual fluctuations of the earth's energy in the northwest direction.

Based on the fragmented information obtained from the gray-clad man's memories, and combined with the ley line map, the node in the northwest direction should be located in a remote valley called Wild Forest Slope.
