Chapter 257: Black Fire Rakshasa
In addition to this box, if mortals hope for divine power and covet holy relics, they will be wiped out in an instant and their bones will be gone.
But nothing is absolute. In the legend of the Shadow Kingdom, there is a special person who can not only touch the Demon God Pearl without dying, but can even obtain a special power and become a demon sealer.
It is said that when the Demon Sealer touches the Demon God Bead, he will leave a mark on his body that resembles a black flame. This seal of black fire is the source of power, and since then it has become the body of a rakshasa and the nemesis of demons.
But this so-called Demon Sealer and Black Fire Rakshasa Seal are just legends, not only has the Black Veil Maiden never seen it, but there is no record in the tens of thousands of years of history of the Ancient Shadow Kingdom, so she was so shocked when she saw my left hand.
I was a little confused by what she said.
Demon Buster? Little brother, I can't even take a bead to seal the demon, and I'm still a nemesis?! Half an hour ago, I was beaten by this old pervert of Lust, okay? Are all your nemesis? Why don't you say I'm Ultraman!
I don't know what black fire to say, Rakshasa is not a good word.
If memory serves, Rakshasa is supposed to be a transliteration of Sanskrit, widely used in Buddhism to refer to evil spirits that eat flesh and soul.
In the twenty-fifth volume of "The Meaning of Hui Lin", it is recorded: "Rakshasa is also a demon in this cloud. Cannibalism of flesh and blood, or flying in the air, or traveling on the ground, is terrifying. ”
Although I have only been studying art with Master for three years, as a cultivator, these basic concepts are still understood, and you want to bully me for not having read a book? Hehe, joke!
The black gauze girl frowned and shook her head, saying that that is the explanation of you humans, in the shadow country, the explanation for the rakshasa is to bind the demon people, which means restricting, controlling, and sealing.
In the culture of the Ancient Shadow Kingdom, they firmly believe that everything in the world is a cycle, from small ants to large gods, and there is no absolute power and strong people who can override everything, but one thing descends one thing and restricts each other.
In other words, although a person with the Black Fire Rakshasa Seal can seal the ancient gods and demons, it is only a link in the cycle of heaven and earth, and it is by no means invincible in the world, and it is still limited to it.
On the contrary, because of the existence of the power of sealing demons, those with the Rakshasa Seal of Black Fire must bear a fate that ordinary people cannot bear, that is, to attract the attention of evil creatures and covet the power of black fire.
Ancient books say that such people are short-lived and short-lived, which is almost equivalent to burning life to gain power.
I almost didn't run my nose. Originally, it was considered that the skills were not pressing, and what black fire or Rakshasa was at least not a bad thing. But now that I hear her say this, I'll bake! Isn't this just a short-lived ghost?!
Alas...... Good things are never part, and I was born with the ability to be hit on the top of my head by meteorites frequently!
But fortunately, I have a big heart, and I am relieved to think about it. Master had said a long time ago that cultivators have always attracted ghosts, but now they are nothing more than an upgraded version that can be ignored.
As for the short-lived thing, cultivators are also disadvantageous anyway, as long as it doesn't affect me to find a partner in the future, just pass on the lineage to the old Li family.
Single dog, it's just going to shed another handful of tears here......
Sure enough, after doing my own ideological work, my heart relaxed. I don't bother with this mark anymore, and I thanked the black gauze girl, thanking her white satin for saving me before.
The big eyes of the black gauze girl hide the loss, and she looks preoccupied, obviously losing the demon god bead and carrying the burden of thought.
She smiled reluctantly at me, revealing a row of white teeth, and said no thanks, as long as I didn't blame her.
It turned out that she was indeed the one who knocked Anna unconscious and secretly followed and finally touched the mechanism, causing us to fall into the underground waters.
The girl in the black gauze told me that her name was Xiao Ruo.
From the very beginning, she had secretly seen us fighting with the minions of the Handmaiden Sect, and had overheard our conversations, and concluded that the purpose of our trip was to try to make an attempt on the Demon God Bead.
So, she knocked Anna unconscious to move the pregnant women to safety, and the trigger was to make us retreat and not cause trouble for her.
Xiao Ruo said that in fact, the underground waterway leads directly to the mountain lake outside, as long as you swim against the current for ten minutes, you can go out, who knows that we just bumped into a He Luo, and by mistake we went deeper and deeper.
It was this mistake that allowed us to finally get here over many obstacles, and Xiao Ruo also overestimated her strength, long before we came, she was defeated by the flaws that turned into a mountain of corpses and was knocked unconscious.
If we hadn't killed it, it would have been cool at the moment, as the saying goes, no book can be written without coincidence.
As for the saying that the Demon God Bead can cure diseases and prolong life, Xiao Ruo said that it is all the outside world chasing wind and shadows, and there is no such effect at all.
Maybe it's because they have a relatively long lifespan, and it's not uncommon for people to be two or three hundred years old. You don't know the secret of their longevity, but they are completely different species from the same ancestors as humans.
Regarding Xiao Ruo's statement, Miyazaki Shi was noncommittal, obviously not believing it. However, after all, they are the rightful owners of the Demon God Beads, and besides, the beads have been snatched away at this moment, so it is useless to say more.
Xiao Ruo didn't have a good impression of Miyazaki Zhi and his group, but was very kind to me, the fat man, Lao Bi, and especially me.
She said that she was not good at learning, and now that the Demon God Bead has been robbed, she will have to find it again even if she exhausts her life, otherwise she will have no face to see the ancestors of the Shadow Kingdom. And begged me with some embarrassment, hoping that I could help her then.
As the old saying goes, many friends, many roads, many enemies, many walls.
People have saved me before, and they all came out to mix, and I definitely can't shirk this kind of thing. I promised to come down, but I didn't take it seriously in my heart.
The first is that the purpose of our visit is not for the broken beads at all.
The second is that the demon man must have run back to the Extreme Dao Gang after snatching the Demon God Bead, and it is impossible to cross the Gang, so even if he agrees, he can't actually make a difference, and he pretends to be a big-tailed wolf in vain.
Besides, what kind of black fire rakshasa seal is this thing so godly? I'm skeptical, too.
As for how the originally sealed Desire Demon summoned the maid Defective Song, and what happened between him and Xiao Ruo?
According to Lao Bi's previous speculation, as well as what the demon said, I made up eight or nine points in my own brain, so naturally I can't ask. Because it involves privacy, it is estimated that even if you ask, people may not say.
Seeing that I nodded in agreement, Xiao Ruo was very happy, and the expression on her solemn face finally eased.
She took out a slender piece of white satin from her bosom and handed it to me, saying that by wrapping this white satin around her hand, she would be able to block the aura emitted by the Black Fire Rakshasa Seal from being detected by evil creatures.
This white satin shone with a layer of white shimmer, extremely soft to the touch, almost weightless, but clearly a real thing, much thinner than the light that came out of the box before.
I took the letter suspiciously, and was just about to wrap it around my hand, but who knew that this white satin seemed to be conscious, and it automatically wrapped around a corner just after putting it down, and soon wrapped my entire left palm, not loose or tight, very magical.
