Chapter 457 - 129: Magnificent Magic

After enslaving the worm curse spirit, Udi ignored the plump woman nearby who was shivering and leaking unknown liquid, and his figure flickered, disappearing directly from the second-floor balcony.

In a room on the third floor of the town inn.

Udi sat cross-legged on the bed, and with a thought, he communicated with the Spirit Cage Space.

Inside the Spirit Cage Space, the worm curse spirit, almost smashed to pieces, lay there, slowly absorbing the thin curse power pervading the space to recover from its injuries.

But judging by the looks of it, it might not recover even in half a month, after all, Udi’s curse power was exceedingly thin.

With a thought, Udi summoned the worm curse spirit.

In reality, a tentacled plump worm, as if crushed by a large truck, suddenly appeared from the air and fell out.

"Come, cultivate curse power for me." Udi ordered the tentacled worm curse spirit.

The tentacled worm barely moved and then stopped responding, transmitting information through their connection.

[So painful... so hungry....]

Udi’s expression turned cold, his large hand raised, about to strike hard—

The tentacled worm shivered and urgently began to inhale special energy from the air, then transformed it into strands of curse power, transmitting them to its master, Udi.

Udi closed his eyes, feeling the increasing curse power within him....

The curse power, originally about a hundred strands, increased to a hundred and one strands, a hundred and two strands....

After half a day passed, Udi opened his eyes, expressionless.

"Too slow."

The tentacled worm, already exhausted and shrunken by a circle from its plump body, trembled, sensing something ominous.

Sure enough, the next moment, the tentacled worm curse spirit rolled back into the Spirit Cage Space and then started to burn, with strands of pure curse power replenishing the Spirit Cage Space as the tentacled worm self-immolated.

One hundred and two strands, one hundred and ten strands, one hundred and twenty strands...

When the tentacled worm curse spirit completely vanished, devoured entirely by the Spirit Cage Space, Udi’s curse power doubled!

Udi’s expression softened, nodding with satisfaction.

This is efficient.

By relying on this tentacled worm curse spirit to slowly cultivate, a month’s hard work couldn’t have increased the curse power by this much.

However, ordinary Curse Masters can’t do what Udi did, as each devouring of a curse spirit is an extremely dangerous act, unless the curse spirit is vastly inferior in power.

But if that’s the case, the curse power almost couldn’t be increased.

For a Curse Master, the amount of curse power their body can contain has a limit, so when reaching a certain degree and accumulation, devouring weaker curse spirits can no longer bring a power enhancement, only devouring stronger curse spirits can enhance the purity of the curse power within, thereby enhancing power.

If unwilling to take huge risks to devour curse spirits, then can only honestly rely on curse spirits to slowly cultivate curse power.

But what is impossible or highly dangerous for ordinary Curse Masters is extremely easy for the current Udi.

A physique comparable to a Fourth-level Biological Level, coupled with a terrifying willpower matching a High-tier Legendary, it can be said that the limit to the curse spirits Udi can devour is entirely subject to his physical strength.

And his physical strength entirely supports his devouring of Unranked curse spirits without a bit of pressure.

"Continue." Sensing the doubled but still pathetically thin curse power within, Udi thought calmly.

His figure flickered, disappearing from the guest room.

In the ensuing period, the atmosphere in Wind Language Town became incredibly eerie.

One samurai after another was found unconscious and in disarray, leaving Wind Language Town as if some horrifying curse spirit were chasing them.

And the residents of Wind Language Town were also on edge.

Because recently, there were rumors from time to time saying there was a deranged samurai who was removing curse spirits everywhere, knocking out many residents and samurai, and destroying quite a few houses.

This matter was soon reported to Wind Language Town’s manager, Thorne Lex. Lord Thorne took this matter very seriously, dispatching five powerful samurais from his family and dozens of guards to spread across Wind Language Town, attempting to capture this mysterious samurai disrupting the market.

Yes, disrupting the market.

The curse spirits originally born in Wind Language Town were all neatly allocated, with Level 5 curse spirits belonging to the Lex Family and the Kagano Family. Among the Unranked curse spirits with high danger indices, they were left for visiting samurai, who would receive half the Kingdom’s bounty for removing one, while the Lex Family took the other half.

The remaining easily removable, less dangerous curse spirits were left for the samurai of the Lex family.

As for the Kagano Family....

Aside from Cleia, the Kagano Family had only one samurai, and that samurai could not go out to remove curse spirits for money but needed to hold the fort at Kagano Manor to prevent any accidents.

As for Udi (Sid), no one yet knew Udi had become a Curse Master, though his practice of Violent Bear Swordsmanship had surely leaked. After all, his appearance had changed so much, and the manor’s hundreds of people saw it; surely there were outside spies.

But Udi and Cleia didn’t care whether it was leaked or not.

Samurais are merely servants of Curse Masters.

....

"The curse spirits are getting fewer."

On the rooftop of a house, Udi, cloaked under a black robe, murmured to himself.

With the frantic and efficient removal of curse spirits during this period, nearly ten out of ten curse spirits in Wind Language Town were gone, and the newly born ones were too weak, gradually unable to meet Udi’s needs.
