Underworld Soul Ghost Curse

Underworld Soul Ghost Curse, Life Devouring Blood Rite, or simply Underworld Soul Ghost Curse, is a curse inflicted by Gui Yan. Long Chen travels to Pill Valley to find the other volumes of the Great Brahma Scripture to remove the curse.
This is one of the Evil Path's most sinister curses and secret arts. Gui Yan was able to unleash it at such a young age. Gui Yan has to possess an extremely high status in the Corrupt path, or he wouldn't be able to learn such a skill, nor would he be able to forcibly strip other Corrupt experts of their life energy when they aren't willing. Even Life Star experts had some of their life energy stripped away. All that energy has formed a curse that will go against your own life energy until you eventually die.
== Effects ==
The Underworld Soul Ghost Curse was one of the Corrupt path's most insidious curses. After considering that Gui Yan had sacrificed so many experts and even stripped Life Star experts of their vitality to power it, there was no need to doubt its power.
This curse was not a poison. It had no cure. Once struck by it, the curse would sink into a person's blood, body, bones, and soul, closely entwining with every part of them.
Each time the curse flared, it would grow stronger. If you suppressed it once, the second time it would be twice as strong.
== Casting ==
A mixed black and blood-colored rune appeared in Gui Yan's hand, and with a wave, it began to spread. Black ripples instantly spread, and whether it was Corrupt Foundation Forging disciples or Soul Transformation experts, their bodies all stiffened and they fell to the ground, lifeless.
== Removing ==
To remove this curse, the only method is to allow your life energy to become greater than the life energy within the curse. This is a curse of absolute death. At the same time as it counteracts your life energy, it will counter your soul, your physical body, your karmic luck, and every other factor. That was why Gui Yan was so arrogant as to say your death was certain. However, the curse will only activate after it sleeps in your body for three days.
Alternatively Long Chen uses the GSB vol 2 to remove the curse.
== Story ==
With the Underworld Soul Ghost Curse, Long Chen was unable to bring out his true power. He couldn't use his divine ring or battle armor. Just relying on his flame energy, his chance of killing a rank nine Celestial like Jiang Zijun was less than 10%.
Long Chen had noticed that after being afflicted by the Underworld Soul Ghost Curse, he was becoming more and more unfamiliar with himself. He was starting to lack the courage to risk his life.
He had lost his old, sharp self. That Long Chen always charged forward without regard for anything. He needed to find himself again, so he had planned on forcing himself this time. Otherwise, even if he could cultivate the second volume of the Nirvana Scripture, he would have lost his undefeatable Dao-heart. 
That was the most frightening thing. Thus, he hadn't gotten angry or impetuous. He was forcing himself to be courageous. He couldn't use the excuse of the Underworld Soul Ghost Curse to be a coward.
=== Removing the curse ===
Long Chen was surrounded by runes, and sacred chanting filled the air. But at this time, black qi was coming out of his body. That qi gave off an evil feeling.
Jiang Zijun was appalled. That black qi gave him a sensation of mortal danger, and he felt like he would die just from touching it. He involuntarily retreated into the distance, not daring to get close. His survival instincts told him that the current Long San was extremely dangerous.
More and more black qi appeared. It was like mist surrounding Long Chen. It was enveloped by flames and refused to scatter.
As the curse was fully expelled from his body, his aura began to climb. The black mist was suddenly blown apart and vanished without a trace.
With the curse lifted, Long Chen slowly circulated the power of his immortal platforms to nourish his body.
During his advancements to the 10-12th Heavenstages, the curse had made it so he couldn't use his spiritual yuan to nourish his body. Now he was making up for it.
A huge amount of energy poured throughout Long Chen's body, causing the space around him to shake. The ground splintered and cracks spread into the distance. That pulse of energy lasted for just a few seconds before stopping.
"I can only use ten percent of my power? But that's enough to handle trash I suppose."
Although the curse had been removed, and his physical body had powered up, he was still only able to use a tenth of the power of his immortal platforms. If he used any more, his body would break down.
== Trivia ==
*Because of the Underworld Soul Ghost Curse, he was only able to use his spiritual yuan to form his flame energy. That was the only way to prevent the curse from reactivating. Other than refining pills, he couldn't do anything right now.
*With the curse afflicting his body, not even the Pill Fairy could sense his true power. All she could sense was his powerful Spiritual Strength and his powerful body.
