Chapter 759Chapter 759 Malevolent Land
Petrified, Lyanna hid behind Jared. Tommy and Phoenix had both seen such things while following Jared
around, but they both paled as well at the sight of so many sinister spirits materializing at once.
While everyone was shaking like a leaf, Jared waved a hand lightly, upon which all the black mist
disappeared. The room reverted to its original state once more.
“M-Mr. Chance, what were all those? Don’t tell me they were ghosts?” Spencer asked Jared after taking
a deep breath.
At that very moment, Shawn was so terrified that he curled on the couch, trembling unceasingly. Verily,
he looked like a shadow of his former self.
Callum’s expression changed, and he instinctively inched closer to Curtis.
“What you beheld was just one of the souls from a person’s three souls and seven senses. When
someone dies, his three souls and seven senses leave the body. After the seven senses evaporate, the
heavenly spirit will ascend to the sky while the earthly spirit returns to the earth, and the bodily spirit goes
back into the cycle of reincarnation. The clouds of black mists are earthly spirits. They are also known as
specters, or more commonly, ghosts,” Jared explained to Spencer.
Although Spencer was still lost, he seemed to have grasped something. He continued asking, “Is the
Soul Manipulation Technique you mentioned earlier used to manipulate the ghosts?”
Nodding, Jared replied, “Exactly! Specters are just energy beings. They’re originally weak and couldn’t
possibly harm humans. But if someone intentionally manipulates them and feeds them negative energy,
the weak specters will become sinister spirits and harm others.”After hearing that, realization immediately dawned upon Spencer, and he understood why the man
wanted to make a move against Curtis just now.
Likely, it’s because Curtis is using the Soul Manipulation Technique to harm Shawn and his family. But
then, he cured Jane earlier, and we saw a cloud of black mist leaving her body with our own eyes.
He grew all the more confused. He couldn’t quite make sense of whatever was happening right then
since he knew nothing about spiritual arts.
“No matter what, you’re part of the Robinson family. Yet, you’re causing such harm to your family. Are
you aware that there’s divine judgment in the spiritual world?” Jared stated, his eyes pinned on Callum.
“What nonsense are you spouting? I don’t understand a single word!” Callum roared, his expression
changing drastically.
“What exactly is going on here, Mr. Chance?” Shawn questioned, walking over to Jared after having
recovered from the fright.
He was baffled.
Looking at him, Jared smilingly disclosed, “Your house is under an arcane array, and ghosts are
everywhere in this house. I’m afraid that your entire family doesn’t have long to live.”
The instant Shawn heard that, his expression turned exceedingly grim.
novelbin“Please go into more detail, Mr. Chance. W-What do you mean by that?”
He truly didn’t understand who would want to harm his family.
“Mr. Robinson, you told me that it was Curtis who chose this spot for you to construct your house, yes?”
Jared queried.“Yes. The entire land, including the structure and layout, was all chosen by Curtis painstakingly,” Shawn
affirmed with a nod.
“This land you chose to build a house on is malevolent. Worse still, it’s also a place with a lot of negative
energy. All that makes this place perfect for rearing ghosts. Your house is also built in such a way that
invites calamity. After all, the structure and layout of a house are also very important to maintain a
balance. I believe you now understand what’s happening, don’t you?” Jared elucidated.
From the moment he stepped foot into the courtyard, he had sensed something amiss. It wasn’t until he
had entered the mansion that he realized the house was under an arcane array. However, only after he
saw Curtis summoning tons of ghosts with the Soul Manipulation Technique did he perceive that the land
was malevolent.
Even if Shawn were dumb, he still understood what the man meant by then. Not only was the place
chosen by Curtis, but it was also the latter who designed the structure and layout. Besides, he was even
well-versed in the Soul Manipulation Technique, and this house was filled with specters. Most
importantly, he was Callum’s classmate. After linking it with Jared’s remark earlier, realization promptly
dawned upon the man.
