064 Son of Gods and Demons
There is a courtyard surrounded by greenery at the foot of the Hundred Turns Peak of Seven Star Island.
Ye Haotian struggled to get up from the bed in a bedroom in the courtyard, he did not respond to the concern in the eyes of the middle-aged farmer, nor did he pay attention to the woman in Tsing Yi who quickly changed from soft to indifferent, but came to the drunk old man in an old robe, whose face seemed to be a little deeper, approached and saluted respectfully.
"What's wrong? The old man looked at Ye Haotian's delicate and pale little face, and tried to squeeze out a smile, trying to make his voice as peaceful as possible, but found that his voice was a little hoarse.
Ye Haotian straightened up and asked in a calm voice: "Master, senior brother, senior sister, in the past two years, we have never opened our hearts to talk, today, can we have a good talk?"
In the past two years, the island owner has been haunted, the senior brother is obsessed with refining, the senior sister always looks cold, and Ye Haotian is reborn, to a certain extent, the four of them are the top masters who have read countless people, and the masters are often like to play dumb riddles together, hoping to speculate on each other with a glimpse of the leopard, it seems that once someone talks too much, they will lose their identity.
The corners of the old man's mouth twitched unconsciously.
"You don't have to lie to me. Ye Haotian continued: "I want to hear the truth. ”
There was silence in the room.
The middle-aged farmer and the old man glanced at each other, while the woman in Tsing Yi turned around and walked out of the room, came to the rain corridor opposite, and quietly looked at the water curtain hanging in front of her.
The old man sighed, he pointed to the chair next to the table and motioned for Ye Haotian to sit down.
Ye Haotian shook his head and stood still without moving.
"Your life is bad. ”
The old man was not reluctant, he looked at Ye Haotian with a fatherly smile on his face.
"Not only has he become the spokesperson chosen by the demon god, but he has also fused a drop of divine blood, you may not know that only those who are chosen by the great god of the heavenly domain will fuse with the divine blood, such a person is called a divine messenger, and some people call him a divine son, and you ...... But he has become the first son of gods and demons in countless years on the mainland, really...... It's so unfortunate. ”
Senior Brother had talked to Ye Haotian about this matter, and Ye Haotian naturally knew what it meant, so he looked as usual, and just said yes.
"It's not easy to control the demon soul in your body, the blood of the four spirits and the immortal grass elixir are not so good," glancing at the green clothes on the other side, the old man said softly: "Qing Ling for you, I don't know how many demonic beasts I have killed and how many injuries I have suffered." ”
The drunk old man looked at Ye Haotian with pity, and his voice became more gentle.
Looking at the beautiful and thin figure under the rain corridor opposite, Ye Haotian suddenly remembered some past events, and couldn't help but ask: "In the past year, Senior Sister has sometimes been injured and returned to the mountain, is it all collecting the blood of the holy beast for me to soak her body?"
The old man nodded slightly: "There are some demonic beasts, which are not easy to kill." ”
Ye Haotian bit his lip, and suddenly remembered a sentence that Qing Ling often said in his previous life, she said, the people on Seven Star Island, if they have kindness, they will repay it, and if they have revenge, they will take revenge. This stubborn woman who is as cold as an iceberg is obviously repaying her for saving her life.
The old man's voice rang out again.
"We have long known that the demon soul in your body will awaken again, and we have made a lot of preparations for this, but people are not as good as heaven, it actually awakened in advance, fortunately, you survived, and there was finally no danger, and your brother and sister and I were relieved." ”
Ye Haotian raised his head, his eyes swept around the three of them, and a doubt that had been held in his heart for almost two years finally asked.
"Why? Why did you save me? Even if I inadvertently saved Senior Sister, I wouldn't make you pay such a big price, would I? If I die, wouldn't it be a hundred?"
The three of them are good to themselves, Ye Haotian has always felt that it is not normal, and Senior Sister Qingling is okay to say, after all, she saved her, but everything that Senior Brother and the island owner have done silently for themselves is a bit too unreasonable, and he doesn't think that the two of them are just to help Qingling return the favor.
The old man was silent, he looked at the middle-aged farmer on the side, the middle-aged farmer smiled embarrassedly, and said: "You can't die, after the demon soul in the mountain and river sword enters your body, you will become a cage that seals it, once you die, the demon soul will be out of control, this demon soul is the key to open the door of the abyss, as long as you live, the abyss demon clan will not be able to descend on the continent, can you understand when I say this?"
"Abyss Gate?"
Ye Haotian was stunned, he looked at the middle-aged farmer with wide eyes, and suddenly the Pandora who appeared in the dream in a coma suddenly appeared in his mind. At the same time, I remembered a dilapidated ancient book I had read on the second floor of Tingxi Cave not long ago about the invasion of the demon race on the mainland.
It was an ancient legend of the demon invasion of the Firmament Continent in ancient times.
It is said that the spatial passage for the demon race to enter this continent was reluctantly opened by condensing the power of the eighteen demon gods of the nine heavens and ten earths.
Later, due to the destruction of human beings and cultivators of various races, the passage was cut off after only one year, which made the hundreds of millions of demon armies originally gathered only teleport less than one in ten before it came to an end.
Otherwise, today's Firmament Continent would never be a three-legged situation of humans, demons, and demons.
Although the passage was cut off, part of the power of the eighteen demon gods was left on this continent.
They have turned into ten statues of demon gods, scattered in all corners of the continent, and it is said that as long as someone collects them, they can reopen the spatial passage, become the lord of all demons, and gain the ability to live with time and space.
Of course, to open the spatial passage, you also need to sacrifice a special person, that person must have the purest Demon Venerable soul in the world, and he has a name that makes the demons crazy and deeply feared by mankind - the son of the Demon Venerable!
"That story about the invasion of demons...... Is it true?"
Ye Haotian looked at the middle-aged farmer with incredulous eyes, this story he had heard many times in his life, and at that time it was just a legend made up by boring scholars, until this moment, he realized that it was not so simple.
The middle-aged farmer nodded: "Yes, it's true." ”
"I'm ...... Son of the Demon Venerable?"
A loving smile appeared on the middle-aged farmer's face, he came to Ye Haotian's side, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted: "Don't worry, with me and the teacher here, it will be fine." ”
There was a sudden silence in the room.
......
......
Under the tree.
Zhuzhu, who heard the voice, turned around and saw Ying Jiu standing behind her covered in water.
"Where's Brother Haotian?"
Seeing Ying Jiu, Zhuzhu asked.
"The boss is on fire, it's terrible!"
Ying Jiuzhan said tremblingly: "After he ran out of the cave, he disappeared, and there were fires everywhere in the mountains and forests, which scared me to death." Also, Bai Ze turned into a two-meter-high, five-meter-long silver-haired tiger, he is not a human! He is a demon clan! Let's go and tell the village chief and your father, arrest him, and kill him!"
"I'm going to kill you and do it yourself. ”
Seeing Ying Jiu's panicked appearance, Zhu Zhu was a little irritated for no reason, "He is lying there, do you want me to give you a knife?"
Ying Jiu took two steps back in fright, waved his hand again and again, and said, "No, no, no, I don't dare, he is a demon clan, don't you feel scared?"
"Don't be afraid. Zhuzhu turned her head to glance at Bai Ze in the rain in the distance, and a trace of sympathy flashed in the depths of her eyes.
"Why?" Ying Jiu's eyes widened, feeling that Zhuzhu was so bold, and he was not afraid of living in the same village with a tiger demon for so many years, it was really incredible.
Zhu Zhu thought for a moment and said, "Because...... I'm a demon too. ”
......
......
The thunder has faded, and the rain has stopped.
Starlight fell through the dissipating clouds onto the washed Seven Star Island, and the air was filled with the fragrance of earth and plants.
Ye Haotian leaned on the beast-shaped wood carving carved with delicate patterns at the bottom of Baizhuan Peak, silently thinking about his thoughts.
The injuries he suffered during the battle with Bai Ze during the day had fully recovered by the time the demon soul awakened.
It was the demonic soul's instinctive protection of the host, and it also gave Ye Haotian a powerful healing ability.
This was a good thing, but Ye Haotian couldn't get excited, not only was he unhappy, but he felt uneasy and panic in his heart.
It was an instinctive fear of death.
There were some things that Ye Haotian didn't say.
Ye Haotian clearly felt that his longevity was passing quickly.
Although the owner of the island said that as long as he stopped using the power of the demon soul, he would be fine for five years.
Although the senior brother said that as long as he cultivated above the Six Realms and achieved the Holy Soul Realm, he could completely seal the Demon Soul and fuse the divine blood.
Although the senior sister said that the legendary demon god statue has already appeared, as long as he finds it, he can become the lord of all demons in the nine heavens and ten earths, and have the same longevity as heaven and earth.
But Ye Haotian was not happy at all.
Because only he knows that he is afraid that it will be difficult to survive for five years.
As for spiritual sanctification, it is even more of an unattainable fantasy.
For thousands of years, the three clans of people, demons and demons have been able to pass through the Seven Realms, all of them are amazing and brilliant, not to mention how huge the backing resources they have behind them, just from the cultivation time, the words of the senior brother are just to comfort themselves.
Entering the Holy Realm within five years?In that life, Ye Haotian spent two hundred years without being able to step into the threshold of the Seven Realms, and even if he had the cultivation experience of his previous life in this life, it was impossible for him to cross the Six Realms in five years.
The statue of the demon god mentioned by the senior sister, Ye Haotian learned from the mouth of the island owner that seven of them had fallen into the hands of the demon lord, and in recent years, the war between the human and demon clans in the Western Continent has become increasingly fierce, and it is said that it is for the remaining three statues, but more than ten years have passed, and no one has heard of them ever seen their shadows.
Thinking that after being reborn, he could change his fate and completely eliminate those hidden dangers that threatened him and his family, who would have thought that a magic sword would make him fall into the abyss of even more despair.
OK.
This Demon Soul Awakening made some changes in his spiritual sea, and he could continue to cultivate, otherwise, Ye Hao naively didn't know how to live.
"I have to live! not because I'm strong, but because I'm ...... I can't afford to die. ”
Thinking that once he died, he would let the demon soul get out of control and bring extinction to mankind, Ye Haotian felt for the first time that the burden on his shoulders was so heavy. How did he become the savior of the human race so inexplicably?
