Chapter 18: What is a Man and What is a Demon?
Tonight, whether it is a violent wind or a bloody rain, who is swaying in this wind and rain?
But Xiao Qianwen knew that he was a person standing in the wind and rain.
Xiao asked, looked at the "Uncle Ji" and said, "I want to know Uncle Ji's name and identity in the Heaven Dou Academy now, I don't want to be the one who is being covered." β
Uncle Naji's eyes flickered a few times, as if he was weighing the pros and cons or thinking about the gains and losses of the two of them.
Xiao asked, looking at his expression, he said, "You don't have to tell me a fake name and identity, it's not difficult to know your identity with your current outfit." β
Xiao asked, revealing his treacherous side. For treacherous people, they must put their own interests first, otherwise it is tantamount to seeking the skin of a tiger, he knows this in his heart.
Uncle Naji's face softened in an instant and said, "I am a first-grade Taoist master of the Heaven Dou Academy, surnamed Qiu, and my name is Qiji. He is also the chief elder of the Heavenly Dao Academy, and today His Majesty the Demon Monarch is also coming to Shangjing, so you don't have to be suspicious in your heart. β
Xiao Wendao was shocked in his heart, the spies of this demon clan are all among the elders of the Heaven Dou Academy, and the layout of the demon clan in Tianwu is simply unfathomable.
Xiao asked, "Then why did you go into the demon bottle in the middle of the night today, and besides, why don't you go in when you are close to the building and get the demon god's bones." β
The corner of Qiu Qiji's mouth twitched and said, "If it weren't for me, would you be able to get in and out?" β
Xiao asked, knowing that his life was in his hands tonight. Thinking of this, another layer of fine sweat broke out on his back.
Qiu Qiji saw Xiao Wen's expression of fear and said: "You and I don't have to be suspicious of each other, if I want to harm you, with my cultivation in the middle of the Yuan Realm, it will be effortless to kill you, not to mention that you and I are both working for the Demon Lord, and it is a good thing for you and me to work together to do this well." β
Xiao asked, knowing that there was no good way now, he could only say: "Then how to act now, I don't know how much Elder Qiu knows about the Demon Bottle." β
Qiu Qiji said: "Although I have been in the Heaven Dou Courtyard for nearly a few decades, I have never entered this Demon Bottle, not even the master of this Heaven Dou Courtyard, but I can master the mantra of entering and exiting. β
Xiao asked, realizing a major problem, he asked, "Then whose hand is this demon bottle in now?" β
Qiu Qiji said: "Now the virtual body of this Demon Bottle is still in the hands of Emperor Helan Bai, the master of the Heaven Dou Academy, but tonight he has a competition with Su Fengtang, the first demon general of the demon clan, in the Yunxiao Hall of the Imperial Palace, and midnight is their beginning and our beginning." β
Xiao Wendao knew that this was a rare good time, Qiu Qiji would not miss it, and the Demon Lord Nanzhu would not miss it.
Qiu Qiji walked out of this small remote room first, Xiao asked and waited for about a stick of incense before walking out of this room.
Xiao asked, not knowing that a pair of eyes were staring at his figure as he walked out.
Xiao Wendao walked out of the Tiandou Courtyard and didn't want to go back to Xuelu, so he walked through the streets of Shangjing alone and saw a wine shop, although it is not suitable to drink today, but there must be a catharsis for a trace of unhappiness in his heart.
I ordered two taels of potpourri stuffed and two side dishes.
When he rolled up his wine glass, he couldn't help but wonder what kind of chess the Demon Lord Nan Candle was playing, and whether he was the chess piece he was playing, whether he was a pawn or an abandoned pawn himself.
I drank a glass of wine, but I felt more and more cold in my heart.
Although the Demon Lord said that he wanted to take the divine remains in the Demon Bottle, he was afraid that he would use it to break through his cultivation. It's a pity that he still has to call the Demon Lord an uncle.
A glass of wine can be drunk in one go, but you can't get drunk and rest.
It's getting dark, and the moon is coming out early tonight.
Get out of the liquor store and the street is extra lively. This is the well-flowed Shangjing that his mother said.
Fireworks in the distance cut through the silent night, walking alone on this lively street.
A young father and wife walk past him, the child sits on the father's shoulder, and the wife takes her husband's arm.
The storm has come tonight.
Emperor Helan Baidi, the master of Tiandou Academy, one of the three major monasteries in Shangjing, and Su Fengtang, the first demon general of the demon clan. The duel between the cultivators of the Zhuyuan Realm was boiling, whether it was ordinary people or the princes and nobles of Shangjing, they all surrounded the Yunxiao Palace, and outside the empty hall, there were people standing there.
Jin Wuwei also had to send heavy troops to maintain the surging flow of people.
The night is deeper, and there is still an hour left for the ion night.
Xiao asked, like a lonely boat going upstream, towards the Heaven Dou Courtyard.
At night, the Tiandou Courtyard is as beautiful as a cloud.
Lights had been lit on both sides of the road, and three or two cultivators in Heaven Dou Yuan robes could be seen practicing the Dao at night, and groups of three or five were also walking towards the Cloud Palace.
Several people looked at Xiao who was walking in the Heaven Dou Courtyard at night and asked, although they had some doubts in their hearts, they all passed by him in a hurry.
The more you go, the more remote you go, the darker you go.
Xiao Wenwen looked at the white bottle, which was actually only a hundred steps away, but he still felt that the road was long.
A door, squeaked open.
He walked in.
Qiu Qiji said, "Now prepare to enter the Demon Bottle. β
Xiao asked, "You got the virtual body of the Demon Bottle." β
Qiu Qiji said: "Everything is under my control. β
He didn't say whether he got it or didn't get it, but now Xiao Wenwen's heart calmed down.
When he saw the true body of the vial, most of the vials were underground. The leaking bottle was only one-fifth of the total bottle of the Demon Bottle.
There is also a corridor leading to the bottle body underground. There is a stone tablet more than two meters high standing next to the road, on which are written four bright red characters in the forbidden land of demons.
Qiu Qiji accompanied him to the first floor below the corridor, looked at Xiao and asked, "You go down now, there is a black stone gate below, that is the entrance of the Demon Bottle." β
After he said this, he hurriedly walked up.
He walked down hundreds of steps, and he didn't see the black gate that Qiu Qiji said, and he already understood in his heart that he had never come down himself, and he didn't know what he would encounter.
At this time, the battle between the Dutch White Emperor of the Heavenly Dou Courtyard in the Cloud Hall and the first demon general of the demon clan, Su Fengtang, had already begun. The sky changed color, and black clouds covered the sky above the Cloud Palace.
And now Xiao asked, what he saw was a huge stone hall. Four bean-like flames in the four corners of this stone hall. The flames looked neither far nor close.
Xiao asked at this time, but he didn't feel a trace of the attribute of the Five Elements Fire, and turned his head to see where he was still coming in.
He walked to the nearest flame to him, looked around, but saw nothing, not a trace of the so-called divine remains.
He lifted the fire technique again, and a trace of the fire of the five elements ignited at the center of his brow.
Suddenly, the bean-like flames in the four corners of the main hall were also extinguished in an instant, leaving only the cluster of light on his forehead.
Xiao asked: I felt that I was not in a demon bottle, but standing in the vast snowfield, but there was no wind or snow, and I couldn't feel anything related to life.
Xiao asked and closed his eyes, this was how he communicated with Grandpa Huo and Grandpa Jin behind the runes at that time.
Sitting cross-legged, he was feeling everything here.
A slight breeze swept across his forehead, and the cluster of flames on his forehead was extinguished.
He opened his eyes and smiled at the corners of his mouth.
A thick black mist formed a face, and that face had the facial features of a human being, and also had the strong aura of the demon race.
A voice appeared in the mouth of that face, "Who are you and how did you get here?" β
Xiao asked, "I am a messenger sent by the demon lord Nan Candle of the demon clan, and I asked me to take the divine remains." β
The black mist said, "I want to know who you are, but I don't want to know who you are working for. β
Xiao asked, knowing that he couldn't hide, and said, "I am a descendant of the Xiao family, Ming asked." It was the Demon Lord Nan Zhu who asked me to come here. β
Xiao asked, Demon Lord Nan Candle. You are not from this world, I want to know which world you are. The black mist had a puzzled expression on its face.
Xiao asked Hearing him say this, he didn't know in his heart, I am not from this world.
Xiao asked, "Then you know, which world I am, and whether I am from the immortal realm." β
"Immortal Realm? No, you are not from the Immortal Realm, you have a trace of my body that I am familiar with but also unfamiliar, I am just a wisp of the master's soul, the master's soul is more than 10,000, but you make me feel a trace of familiar aura exuded from you. The black mist said.
Xiao asked, a trace of doubt rose in his heart, and he asked: "Is this demon bottle just a demon soul of yours, and there are no other demons in it." β
The black mist grinned at the corner of his mouth, and the black mist that erupted from his mouth annihilated Xiao Wendao in it, and when the black mist calmed down a little, Xiao Wendao's body was revealed.
The black mist said: "This is not a Demon Bottle, this is a Demon Qi Bottle that the Demon Venerable Master has refined casually, but it is a Demon Qi Bottle that nourishes the soul of the Divider. β
Xiao asked, "Then is the Demon Venerable Master you are talking about the Demon Venerable Building?" β
"Demon Venerable Building, no, the one I'm talking about is the first Demon Venerable in Heaven and Earth, the God of Cocoon. The black mist said.
The wind on the Sky Hall is getting wilder and wilder. There was a huge cloud vortex gathered above the heads of Helan Baidi and Su Fengtang, like a whirlpool in the sea, and the brilliance of the moonlight was revealed in the whirlpool, and the two of them were about to reach the most critical moment.
Now, the fight is that the two of them are deep in Yuanli.
Xiao Wenwen thought in his heart, the word cocoon god has never been heard of in the demon clan.
Xiao didn't have time to think about it when he asked, so he went straight to the point and said, "Then I don't know if there are any divine remains left by the demon clan here." β
"Divine remains, do you want to use divine power to put the finishing touches? Black Mist said.
Xiao asked, "What's the point, I'm just ordering the Demon Monarch Nan Candle to take away the divine remains here." β
The black mist said, "You don't know, there is a closed eye in the middle of your forehead, and only by clicking on this eye, you may know who you really are or which world you come from." And I can only tell you so much. β
Xiao asked at this time, and remembered that the dragon clan mentioned in the art of the Dragon Age, the five elements and four methods of cultivation, and the way of the nine honors.
Xiao Wendao also remembered the secret that the little black dragon said about himself under the Qinglou Underground Palace.
Can the dragon's finishing touch be used on me?
Xiao asked, although he couldn't figure out the causal relationship now, he knew the purpose of his trip.
The remains of the demons.
Xiao asked, "Anyway, I thank my seniors for telling me the secret, but I must also find the remains left by the Demon God. β
The black mist said: "Everyone who walked in from the outside died here, but you can live until now, maybe this is also the wish brought by the Demon Venerable." β
A black mist dissipated, and Xiao asked before he saw the appearance of this, although it was not a mountain of white bones, but it was also full of white fruits, and it could be seen everywhere.
On a mirror platform in front of him, there was a thin thing the size of a fingernail that was transparent and not jade.
The black mist floated above Xiao Wendao's head and said, "This is a piece of godhead left by the Demon Venerable Master to keep the demonic qi here. Maybe that's what you're talking about. β
Xiao asked, looking at the thing, and said, "If I take this piece of godhead, will you dissipate in it." β
"No, if you take this piece of Godhead, I will also be taken away, and that piece of Godhead is also the place where I hide my soul. The black mist said.
Xiao asked if he was a little embarrassed now, so he asked, "Is the senior willing to stay here, or willing to go out?" β
The black mist said, "Will you give this godhead to the Demon Lord Nan Candle that you said in your mouth?" β
Xiao asked, nodding.
The black mist said, "I'll go out with you." β
Xiao asked, above his head, emitting a full moonlight, he picked up the godhead, and his body slowly floated upward.
Emperor Helan Bai's heart was already in turmoil, and the Demon Bottle had changed today. And the demon general of the demon clan saw a trace of his distraction and slapped him on the body.
When that palm hit Helan Baidi's body, he shouted in his mouth, Fu Demon Bottle, Demon Owl has appeared.
Su Fengtang understood what he said, and leaned over to hug Helan Baidi's body, while Helan Baidi's eyes were still looking in the direction of Tiandou Courtyard.
The cultivators who stayed behind in the Heaven Dou Temple also quickly came to the courtyard of the Demon Bottle, but the number was only ten. Qiu Qiji, who was outside, drew his sword and slaughtered.
Xiao asked, the godhead he was holding in his hand disappeared as soon as he opened his hand.
The Demon Lord Nan Candle is here.
The Yi Mu Bai God of the Qinglou will carry the Qingying Sword, like a meteor passing towards the north.
Xiao Wenwen looked at the person next to him who was killed by Qiu Qiji, his eyes were in a trance. The back of his neck was held by a hand, but that hand was not Qiu Qiji.
Xiao Wendao looked at the undried blood on Qiu Qiji's sword, and thought in his heart, what is a human being and what is a demonΒ·Β·Β·Β·Β·Β·
