Chapter 137: How Deep Is a Person's Thoughts?
Old man Li lowered his head and thought about it, and suddenly smiled: "Haha, I guess that Tu Xiaorui didn't say anything about the unusual performance of the demon king, so he must have other plans." ”
"Are you saying that Brother Tu has other plans?" Shi Jiu asked puzzledly.
Old man Li smiled and said, "Where do I know what his plans are, I'm not an old man of Tianji." But I don't think Tu Xiaorui will be like me, he definitely hasn't found the reason that hinders Meng's youthful evolution!"
Shi Jiu said eagerly: "What the senior said, I think you already know, can you tell me?"
Old man Li shook his head and muttered for a long time, then nodded and said, "It's okay to tell you, but you have to make sure that you can't be impetuous, let alone rash!"
Shi Jiu sat up straight and said solemnly, "Okay, senior." I listen to your teachings!"
Old man Li said: "I don't think what you can let go of in your heart is dream youth, so I'll talk about the evolution of dream youth first." ”
Shi Jiu took a deep breath and nodded involuntarily.
Old man Li said: "Actually, at the first ascension ceremony of becoming a demon saint for Meng Qingchun, I have already discovered this secret in Meng Qingchun's eyes, that is, the soul she stripped off by herself is not complete, she should have deliberately left a trace of soul residue, which was kept in the deepest part of her consciousness. ”
"What's the point of youth doing this?" Shi Jiu asked puzzled.
Old man Li said: "To be honest, I didn't know why she wanted to keep this trace of soul at that time, and it wasn't until after you left that I gradually discovered some clues. ”
Shi Jiu's heart tightened and asked, "What is the clue that the predecessors discovered?"
Old man Li said: "After the soul of Meng Youth is withdrawn, her five senses are lost, she can't see, she can't hear, she can't smell, she can't think of it, and she can't even feel it. ”
"Hey, a person who has lost his soul is equivalent to a walking corpse!" Shi Jiu sighed sadly.
Old man Li continued: "But with your departure, her mood and eyes have undergone subtle changes, and I have observed many times and I can't see the reason, until I listened carefully to her heart, and finally, I heard a voice there. ”
Shi Jiu seemed to already know the answer, and he asked, "What did the seniors hear?"
"A man's name!" replied Old Man Li.
Shi Jiu's heart was pounding, and he asked excitedly, "I guess, the seniors heard my name, right?"
Old man Li nodded and said, "Yes, it is your name, which calls your name thousands of times in the heart of Mengqing!"
Shi Jiu, Shi Jiu!
Shi Jiu's heart froze, Xiaoxiao was sad, Dream Youth can't let go of me, how can I let go of her?
Old man Li patted Shi Jiu's shoulder and continued: "The demon king specially built the Holy Maiden Hall for Meng Qingchun, and many demon people resolutely gave up their immortal bodies, and they died generously one after another, sacrificing Meng Qingchun with their lives, all the demon people hope that Meng Qingchun will evolve successfully as soon as possible, have a perfect demon supreme saintess bloodline, implement the wishes of the demon people for thousands of years, and lead the demon people back to light and freedom." ”
Shi Jiu said: "I remember that Meng Qingchun only had three years of life after becoming a demon saint. Now that the ascension ceremony of the Dream Youth Saintess is approaching three years soon, not only is the Dream Youth in danger, but even thousands of demon people will also face life and death. ”
"Well, that's the current situation!" said Old Man Li.
Shi Jiu looked at Old Man Li with some anxiety and asked, "Is there a way for the seniors to avoid such a thing from happening?"
Old man Li said: "There is a way, and it was told to me by the demon king himself. But judging from the current situation, it is no longer possible to implement!"
Shi Jiu said, "What method?
Old man Li shook his head and said, "You can't do it, only the demon king can!"
Shi Jiu was firm: "Okay, then I'll go and convince the Demon King!"
Old man Li said helplessly: "You want to persuade him, do you want to hear what the specific method is?"
Shi Jiu said: "Senior, please speak!"
Old man Li said: "Among the demon clans of the Two Realms Mountain, the demon king is the only one who has the purest demon bloodline, and the current situation can only purify the remnants of the soul of Meng's youth by letting him give up his life and sacrifice himself, and finally get rid of the shackles of longing, and he can also evolve into a perfect demon supreme bloodline in the shortest possible time! Do you think that you can persuade the demon king to give up your life with your own tongue?"
Shi Jiu's mood was unusually low, and he said sullenly: "Even if there is only a glimmer of hope, I am willing to give it a try." Without further ado, I want to go to the Demon Tribe now!"
Old man Li said: "Okay, since you have this determination, I am willing to accompany you!"
After Shi Jiu and Old Man Li finished speaking, they got up and went straight to the demon tribe of the Two Realms Mountain.
They hadn't reached the demon tribe yet, and Shi Jiu had already seen the towering temple of the Holy Maiden.
The temple of the Holy Maiden where Meng Qingchun lived was built in a flat place in the middle of the Two Realms Mountain, and the towering spire glowed with a cold black light, and the whole building looked dark and solemn.
Shi Jiu and Old Man Li nodded at each other, and they rushed in the direction of the Holy Maiden Hall.
When approaching the Holy Maiden's Hall, Shi Jiu saw dozens of demon clansmen carrying more than a dozen withered demon corpses one after another and leaving, and their demon spirits had already disappeared.
After the demon people die, the demon spirit will condense into a sphere similar to the beast core, but this demon spirit has a certain spiritual power for a short time, and can find a host, such as other demon people for parasitism, if you can't find a host or give up parasitism, it will soon dissipate in the air, just like the soul of a person who does not want to enter the underworld, a ray of sunlight can make him decompose in the air and formless.
Old man Li asked, "Didn't you succeed today?"
A demon clan man saw that it was Old Man Li, and said with a wry smile, "More than ten demon clan brothers have been sacrificed in vain, the demon king is angry in the apse, and he has devoured the two patrolling little demons alive." Old man Li, you came just in time, go and persuade the demon king!"
Old man Li took Shi Jiu's hand, bypassed the front hall where Meng Qingchun was, and came directly to the apse of the Holy Maiden Hall.
A huge blue bubble rolled around on the floor of the apse of the Holy Maiden's Temple, and two shriveled demon skins were spread out on the ground.
Old man Li entered the apse and said, "Demon King, look at who I brought?"
A huge eye in the huge blue bubble suddenly released a cold light, he stared at Shi Jiu and said, "Boy, you are still here again! I knew that this was the case, I should have made you the holy son of my demon clan in the first place, how could there be so much trouble now!"
Shi Jiu said: "I'll put it bluntly, the reason why I came this time is because I can't let go of my friends, if I can, I am still willing to replace Meng Qingchun, as for becoming the Holy Son of the Demon Clan or something else, I don't care at all!"
The demon king said coldly: "The kid's tone is quite big, let you give up your life, are you willing to do it?"
Shi Jiu Zhengse said: "As long as it's worth it, give up your life without hesitation!"
