291: Chapter 275: Karmic Fire Backlash_1 291: Chapter 275: Karmic Fire Backlash_1 “Damn, why has the backlash of the Karmic Fire from the White Fairy’s Heart Sutra come early?

Isn’t there still a month left before it’s supposed to appear?”

Yun Ji’s expression immediately turned serious.

The so-called backlash of Karmic Fire is a drawback that comes with the practice of the White Fairy’s Heart Sutra.

The White Fairy’s Heart Sutra requires cultivators to maintain their chastity, which makes the cultivation twice as effective, achieving unexpected results; but whether it’s humans or members of the Demon Tribe, both possess innate desires, and the requirements of the White Fairy’s Heart Sutra fundamentally suppress these normal desires.

If the suppression is short-term, it’s generally manageable and can be resolved in other ways, but if the suppression lasts too long, problems will arise in both normal humans and members of the Demon Tribe, let alone those practicing the White Fairy’s Heart Sutra.

Therefore, those who practice the White Fairy’s Heart Sutra will develop something called Karmic Fire within their bodies in the later stages.

This Karmic Fire is produced through long-term suppression of inner desires combined with the cultivation technique.

Once the Karmic Fire flares up, it will engulf a person in an abyss of passion from which they cannot extricate themselves, causing an urgent need for release.

It inflicts unimaginable torment on both the body and the mind.

To dissolve the Karmic Fire is actually quite simple; one only needs to release it.

But, in practicing the White Fairy’s Heart Sutra, one must maintain their virginity.

Once the release occurs, all previous cultivation is wasted, which is why those who practice the White Fairy’s Heart Sutra can only rely on their willpower to suppress the outbreak of Karmic Fire.

Moreover, the Karmic Fire generated by practicing the White Fairy’s Heart Sutra is not something the average person can withstand, only those with a special constitution can bear it.

Otherwise, a common person would be drained dry in one episode, their life at risk.

Although the backlash of Karmic Fire is excruciating, like bone-eating and heart-drilling torture, it only lasts for a period of time.

If one can endure it, there would be no issue.

Yun Ji has been practicing for several hundred years by now; the Karmic Fire within her has already accumulated to a terrifying extent.

Usually, the backlash of Karmic Fire lasts only a week, but she has to endure an entire month of it.

Fortunately, this backlash occurs only once a year; otherwise, she might have already suffered a mental breakdown and given up the White Fairy’s Heart Sutra long ago.

Based on past experience, her Karmic Fire backlash should have occurred next month, which is why she dared to come with Fuxiang to find Lu Chuan.

She never expected the backlash to come early.

Every time the Karmic Fire occurs, she must allocate ninety-nine percent of her strength to suppress the backlash, so during an outbreak, she is at her weakest, practically no different from an ordinary woman without the strength to truss a chicken.

Therefore, every year when the Karmic Fire flares up, she would retreat within the Demon Tribe Territory until the backlash subsides before emerging again.

Now, finding herself in human society and unfortunately experiencing an early backlash of Karmic Fire, panic surged within her.

Dedicating all her strength, she forcefully suppressed the flames of desire in her heart and managed to remain normal.

She then turned her head to look in the direction where Fuxiang had been.

But she saw that Fuxiang’s figure had already disappeared from the front of the cake shop, probably off to buy something else.

“That damn girl, where has she run off to again?

If my enemies from the Demon Tribe attack now, I’ll surely die!”

Worry etched on Yun Ji’s face.

However, she quickly remembered what Fuxiang had said before—that human society was very harmonious, most people were very kind, living together in peace, with conflicts being rare.

Watching the people on the pedestrian street laughing and wearing happy expressions made her realize she might have been too nervous.

The orderly nature of human society made it seem unlikely that someone would take advantage of her weakness to attack her.

Besides, the enemies from the Demon Tribe couldn’t possibly know she had come here.

With this in mind, she breathed a slight sigh of relief.

“Now, I can only wait for Fuxiang to return and discuss with her whether we should postpone the plan to capture Lu Chuan.”

At this moment, Zhou Xiong arrived at the pedestrian street.

He caught sight of Yun Ji sitting on the bench and immediately judged her to be an unparalleled beauty!

He had initially planned to come here to find out Zhou Kun’s whereabouts, but after seeing Yun Ji, he decided to put the search for his brother on hold.

After all, compared to Zhou Kun’s uncertain fate, playing with an unparalleled beauty seemed much more appealing.

After a brief contemplation, he bought two milk teas from a nearby shop, added some powdered drug into one of them, and started walking towards Yun Ji.

Lu Chuan hid in a corner and squinted his eyes after witnessing the scene.

Zhou Xiong approached the bench and sat down next to Yun Ji.

“Beautiful, you seem a little thirsty, and I just happen to have two cups of milk tea here.

How about I share one with you?”

A smile was on his face, very natural, and it gave off an approachable vibe, totally different from his earlier demeanor.

Yun Ji stared at the milk tea offered by Zhou Xiong, pausing for a moment.

Her impressions of humans were all from what she had heard from Fuxiang, so she thought that most humans were very kind.

At this moment, her Karmic Fire acted up, and she was indeed quite thirsty.

Moreover, she had never drunk milk tea before.

After smelling its fragrance, she couldn’t help swallowing her saliva, casually took it, and said to Zhou Xiong, “Thank you.”

Humans are really kind, aren’t they?

Seeing that I’m thirsty, someone even offered me milk tea to drink.

It seems I really had too many prejudices against humans in the past.

Yun Ji thought to herself and then took a sip of the milk tea given by Zhou Xiong, after which a strange light burst forth in her eyes.

“This is…

too delicious!”

She quickly took a few more sips, her face beaming with happiness.

Having lived in the Demon Tribe Territory all her life, she had never tasted anything so delicious.

At that moment, she almost couldn’t suppress the Karmic Fire within her.

Zhou Xiong was slightly stunned to see that Yun Ji had no guard up at all and drank the milk tea from this stranger.

Then an excited smile appeared on his face.

It looks like not only have I come across a top-notch beauty, but also an innocent one.

This is the most thrilling type to play with.

I’m determined to train her to reveal her most contrasting self!

He started chatting with Yun Ji with a smile.

Yun Ji had no guard up and spoke freely with Zhou Xiong.

But after a while, she noticed something was wrong.

She felt dizzy, and her body became weak.

Normally, such a drug would have no effect on her, but during a Karmic Fire outbreak, she was no different from an ordinary woman and naturally couldn’t withstand the drug Zhou Xiong had administered.

She turned her head to look at Zhou Xiong and asked, “Did you put something in the milk tea?”

Zhou Xiong smiled and said, “Don’t worry, it’s just to make you cooperate with me better.”

Yun Ji’s first instinct was to release her power and slap Zhou Xiong to death.

But that’s when she realized that, in order to suppress the backlash of the Karmic Fire, she could no longer use any of her powers.

Her head grew dizzier, her body softer, and she was about to collapse.

Zhou Xiong quickly supported her, saying with a smile, “Let’s find a secluded place and have a more in-depth and simple exchange.”

He then led Yun Ji away from the pedestrian street.

In the corner, the figure of Lu Chuan disappeared without a trace.

Shortly after, Fuxiang returned, running back with a cake and holding two ice creams in her hand.

Her face was filled with joy, wanting to share her favorite dessert with Yun Ji, but when she got to the bench, she couldn’t find Yun Ji anywhere.

She looked around, confusion showing on her face, “Where is my master?”
