đź”® Concept Overview
This scripture channels Curse Qi , a dark energy born from resentment, guilt, and despair.
The cultivator refines his own negative emotions, turning them into strength.
Unlike normal spiritual cultivation, curse cultivation grows through suffering rather than meditation.
Each rank unlocks one Vein and one Secret Art, leading to complete mastery of the Ninefold Malediction Body.
