Chapter 514 The Second Stage of the Curse
I didn't have time to be surprised, and hurriedly swung the soul-holding iron chain with all my strength, so that the other end of the iron chain was wrapped around a protruding rock not far away.

With this, I finally stopped falling. Seeing the dark abyss under my feet, I couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat...

I let out a long sigh of relief. Fortunately, I have used this soul-holding iron chain several times before, and I know how to use it. Although I can't use it as skillfully as a spirit snake like Gui Sanqi, at least it can be used to save my life.

I was so excited that I wanted to use projection to create another soul-restraining iron chain, but unexpectedly, not only was no projection created, but the soul-restraining iron chain that I projected in a hurry disappeared in an instant...

But the strange thing is that I didn't fall again, instead my body was suspended in mid-air. I looked down and was surprised to find that there were several more soul-detaining iron chains on my body, which firmly bound my body.

I followed the iron chain and looked up in surprise. The soul-detaining iron chain was actually in the hands of Gui Jiuwu on the top of the mountain, and at this moment he was pulling me up little by little.

I finally got out of the trap, lying on the ground of the cliff, gasping for breath, I looked back at the shocking cliff, and hurriedly crawled to a safer position on the ground.

I looked at Ghost Jiuwu in front of me, the brim of his hat was put on again, covering his original face.And I couldn't remember his face clearly just now, but I remember his face was not old at all, he looked about 30 years old.

I just wanted to ask a question, but Ghost Jiuwu said to me indifferently: "A person will stimulate the potential in the body at the moment of life and death, and what you have stimulated is not only the potential, you can also break through the seal in the body and release a little power. Let you break through the bottleneck..."

I didn't expect that this was the way he let me break through the bottleneck overnight. I sighed and complained: "Then...then it wouldn't be possible to use this method? I almost died just now?"

"Hmph, as long as I'm here, I will never let you die! But in the future, your life may be worse than death..." Gui Jiuwu stared at me and said meaningfully.

"You... what are you going to do to me again?" I asked in surprise.

"It's not me, but your body..." Gui Jiuwu smiled coldly. Before he finished speaking, my body suddenly felt a sharp pain. My heart, stomach, and abdomen seemed to be cut by a knife. This severe pain gradually spread to the limbs and even every inch of skin from the inside out!

"What...what's going on?" I asked struggling.

Ghost Jiuwu said indifferently: "Because your curse is about to reach the second stage. During this period, you will be in great pain. If you survive it, you will be reborn from Nirvana. If you can't survive it, you will truly die..."

"Then...then if I can make it through, will I be blind like Gui Sanqi..." I cried out in pain.

"It is true that while gaining power, there is also a painful price to pay, usually by losing one of the five senses. Alas, Gui Sanqi unfortunately lost the relatively most important vision." Gui Jiuwu said with a sigh.

I was startled, these words were like a sharp knife, stabbing me deeply, sight, hearing, smell, taste, touch...every sense is very important.

I gritted my teeth and clenched my fists, hating the ominous blood in my body, I even regretted turning on the power of the second stage...

But just when I was disheartened, Gui Jiuwu went on to say: "But not everyone will lose their five senses. Some people just have a serious illness or a disease. Although it is also very tortured, at least they can recover. Specifically What will happen depends on a person's luck... But I think the things in your body will counteract this side effect, but it will only double your pain! If you can persist until the end without being deprived of consciousness, you Still have a chance to survive."

When I heard this, I immediately saw hope, and I gritted my teeth and shouted: "I...I will definitely survive! I...I must not lose to fate! I..."

I relied on my will to suppress the severe pain, but in the end, my will was no match for my body's reaction. In the end, my vision went dark, and I passed out from the pain...
