Ghost Exorciser: Is Loved By All-Chapter 246: Chaapter : The Artifact

Yu Holea listened attentively to Zephyr’s explanations, her mind absorbing the information while she continued her search for the artifact

Zephyr continued,

"When Celestial Master Song knew about this order he wanted to become a soul cultivator but he didn’t have any resources, as for mental cultivation he wasn’t suited. Hence he chose to become an evil cultivator."

Yu Holea’s mouth made a ’O’ shape.

"So he only had 50 years of cultivation. Second, he heavily relied on his physical strength which deteriorated as he aged while his power was gained using artifacts, he never refined that power, and hence even though he had cultivated it for 50 years, he wasn’t a difficult opponent."

Yu Holea asked,

"Refine the power?"

"Yes. Every time we borrow or gain power from some artifact, we need to refine it. Of course, this process of refining is very tedious and painful, and hence many people take the shortcut."

When Zephyr said that sentence disdain was present in his tone.

He truly disdained those people who even after gaining power for free feel lazy or afraid of pain and hence avoid the complete process.

"Because of this laziness not only his power was not truly his but his mental strength became weak too. He didn’t think of training his mental strength at all. How foolish."

Zephyr ended the sentence with a comment.

Then he took a pause and said,

"As for the orbs. Their origin...anyways they are very powerful against such type of people and hence you were able to win so easily, otherwise..."

Zephyr didn’t continue.

Yu Holea somewhat understood and finally asked,

"What about you? I never refined you, so am I also like Celestial Master Song ?"

Zephyr said,

"Two things. First I never lent you any power so I am a bit different from that artifact and second I was refined by you."

"Huh? When?" Yu Holea asked with surprise.

Zephyr said in a calm voice,

"Remember you fainted when you came out of Kunlun mountain?"

Yu Holea nodded her head.

"At that time the reason why you fainted was because I was getting refined in your body."

Yu Holea was truly surprised by Zephyr’s words.

Just then she found the artifact.

By now she was also a bit irritated by the lizard-type humans who kept on attacking her but she didn’t do anything to them and just flicked a Fire Talisman.

Yu Holea noticed that those lizard-type humans were afraid of the fire and hence it was a better approach to keep them busy.

The Fire Talisman instantly transformed into a ball of fire and remained suspended in the air, scaring away all those lizard-type humans who wanted to attack Yu Holea.

Yu Holea heaved a sigh of relief and started examining the artifact.

The artifact was a beautiful silver necklace with red rubies.

Its design was very unique.

Even though it looked beautiful, the aura around it was very dangerous.

The moment Yu Holea touched it 2 different feelings appeared in her heart at the same time.

One side liked it a lot and was becoming obsessed while the other side felt disgust towards the necklace.

It was really contradictory...

Yu Holea touched the artifact and slowly she started touching it with infatuation.

Slowly the expression on her face changed.

The necklace was filled with immense power and just by touching the necklace she was able to replenish some amount of mystic energy.

It showed how powerful this necklace was.

A thought appeared in her mind.

What if she used it to become the most powerful?

Maybe at that time, she will be able to earn love from all...

Maybe the storyline of the novel will change.

And a crazy look appeared on her face.

Suddenly Zephyr’s voice sounded,

"Yu Holea."

It was just 2 words but Yu Holea felt as if she was waking up from a dream.

She looked at the necklace and her pupils dilated.

What the...

Was she hypnotized just now?

Yu Holea hurriedly threw the artifact on the ground.

It was so dangerous...

Zephyr’s voice sounded,

"Don’t be afraid of it. You shouldn’t have touched it without gloves. Since you touched it without gloves it was able to sense your darkest fear and converted into things that you want to achieve."

The artifact’s power to evoke conflicting desires within her unsettled her deeply.

She made a mental note never to touch such items without proper protection or understanding of their capabilities.

It was a lesson learned and next time she won’t be so impulsive.

"I... I didn’t know," she stammered, shaken by the artifact’s ability to manipulate her thoughts and desires.

Zephyr’s soothing voice reassured her,

"It’s alright, but such artifacts wield immense power and can influence the strongest of minds. They feed on the desires and fears of individuals, ensnaring their consciousness."

Yu Holea nodded her head.

"Before using it you need to refine it with your pure mystic energy." Zephyr continued.

Yu Holea was confused and asked,

"How so?"

"Just insert your mystic power for 1 month straight. When it is refined properly you can use it to boost your cultivation."

Yu Holea asked with doubt,

"By how much?"

Zephyr was silent for a minute before replying,

"If you previously were cultivation with a speed of 20% then now your cultivation speed will become 100%."

"You mean 5 times."

"Hmm."

"Zephyr will the power in the necklace ever diminish? Will it also affect me?"

Zephyr was silent for a long time before replying to her,

"The power in the necklace will almost never diminish. As for affecting, it will indeed make your mental strength weak, so you need to start doing mental cultivation."

Yu Holea asked curiously,

"Do you have any manual for mental strength cultivation?"

"Nope."

Came a short and simple reply.

Yu Holea continued asking,

"So do you know from where I can obtain it?"

"Nope."

Yu Holea:"..."

"So it’s alright I won’t cultivate using this necklace."

Zephyr’s voice sounded,

"If you cultivate using it, your luck will improve and your strength will be much more as compared to other Heaven Rank cultivators."

Yu Holea:"..." Please complete the sentence before taking such a huge pause.

Yu Holea said instantly after hearing Zephyr’s words,

"I think I can look for the manual."

Zephyr: "..."

However when he sensed that Yu Holea was a little depressed because of a lack of clue, he finally said,

"In fact, the manual is not the only way to increase your mental strength."

Yu Holea’s eyes brightened and she waited for Zephyr to continue.

Zephyr continued,

"In your Jackson High School, there is a special room that can help you in increasing your mental strength."

Yu Holea was delighted but she suddenly said with a suspicious look,

"Wait a minute, till from when have you been eyeing my actions?"

Zephyr was silent before replying,

"I can always look at your actions." frёeweɓηovel.coɱ

Yu Holea: "..."

Yu Holea checked whether there was any cloth or gloves around and finally spotted a small piece of red cloth.

She wrapped the artifact and exited the cave.

At the same time, she called Huang Yi and Huang Liang there.

She wanted them to investigate something for her.

Looking at the lizard-type human in the cave Yu Holea felt pity for them.

But before she could pity them, she saw that the climate had suddenly turned gloomy.

Soon she heard the sound of thunder and Yu Holea had a bad feeling.

Zephyr’s voice sounded,

"Heavenly Tribulation."

Yu Holea had heard about these legendary heavenly tribulations.

This once-in-a-time tribulation appears when a person advances.

But she did advance so why...

Maybe someone else has advanced and hence this cloud of tribulation has appeared.

However, the dark clouds above her head and the clear sky at 800 meters distance away from her told a different story.

She asked hurriedly to Zephyr,

"Don’t tell me that I will have to go through tribulations?"

Zephyr replied in a calm voice,

"Exactly."

Yu Holea almost collapsed on the ground.

Why was her luck so bad for the past 2 days?

Yesterday that strange book attacked her now she was going to suffer thunder tribulations.

Just what was happening to her?

Yu Holea asked,

"What should I do now? And why I am suffering this tribulation?"

"You should stand and accept all the thunder. Maybe because of the artifact."

Yu Holea gritted her teeth.

She wanted to scold Zephyr for its suggestion but when she thought that it was for her own good, Yu Holea created a light shield of mystic energy around her and waited for the lightning bolt.

It could be said that Yu Holea’s state of mind was the best as compared to others.

She instantly adapted to the situation and even thought of all the possible defenses.

Like right now she was asked Zephyr to find a defensive superpower orb.

However like other times, Zephyr didn’t help her and instead said,

"It’s better if you meet these lightning bolts head-on."
