Chapter 69: The Devil
There was darkness in front of him, and Ye Cheng slowly woke up
"Where is this...... Am I not refining invisibility charms?"
He looked around a little confused
In the middle of the moon, he lay on the rough earth, surrounded by barren weeds, the evening breeze blowing, and the icy air currents made him quickly sober up.
Ye Chengcheng got up on his horse, the silver moonlight sprinkled, and a pitch-black city stood tall, the city walls were dark and tall, as if it was a giant beast entrenched in the night.
"It's ...... Bac Ninh City"
Ye Cheng frowned, he was a little confused about the current situation.
"How could I suddenly be out of town"
It cautiously explored around, the shadows of the black trees overlapping in the distance, and the sound of cicadas could not be heard in its ears, only the rustling of leaves.
Suddenly, a faint black mist rose.
At first, Ye Cheng didn't care, and continued to explore, some mountain fog in the mountains outside the city was normal.
But after walking a few steps, Ye Cheng finally stopped, his face gloomy.
In the red mist, I don't know when a pair of eyes appeared, blood-red eyes stared at Ye Cheng, and the black mist suddenly became thicker, and the black mist surged down, and it was impossible to see the situation clearly.
Ye Cheng walked forward, wanting to find out.
But when Ye Cheng took a step forward, the mist took a step back, always tightly surrounding Ye Cheng in the mist.
Ye Cheng clenched the handle of the knife in his hand, the black fine iron handle was cold to hold, and Ye Cheng's heart was also calm.
He simply did not move, and stood still in place.
"I'd like to see what the hell you're up to."
Ye Cheng's eyes were cold, there were no more than a dozen monsters and ghosts that died in his hands, what was this black mist.
"Ye Cheng, do you still want to kill us......
"Isn't it enough to kill once......"
"Butcher, executioner, you murderer......"
A miserable and resentful scream came from the black mist, and the black mist suddenly dispersed, revealing the situation inside.
Ye Cheng's face changed greatly.
In the black mist, there were hundreds of soldiers wearing black clothes and black armor, but the original black iron armor was dyed red by blood at this time, and the armor was tattered, as if it had just experienced a big battle, and the iron armor was full of cracks that had been cut.
The soldiers' faces were stained with blood, and their expressions were distorted and painful.
Ye Cheng's face turned pale, he recognized the origin of these people, they were wearing the unified armor of the city guard, and then looked at the tall city in the distance, he immediately came back to his senses, this is the suburb of Beining City, which is the battlefield where his inner family was first established and fought.
A trace of doubt flashed in Ye Cheng's heart, how could he suddenly appear in such a place, the resurrection of hundreds of soldiers He could understand that it was a ghost, but he was obviously refining talismans in the quiet room, why did he appear here.
He faintly felt that something was wrong in his heart, and there seemed to be something awakening in his mind, but between his noses, as the faint black qi poured in with his breathing, Ye Cheng's originally bright eyes suddenly flashed a trace of dazedness.
"I have a wife and children, why do you want to kill me......"
"Three generations of my Liu family, I haven't left incense for my father, why are you ......?"
"Why didn't you coward kill the culprit directly, but instead kill many of our brothers"
"Devils, monsters, people like you should die......"
Countless voices passed over, as if magic sounds were pouring into his ears, these voices were forcibly stuffed into his mind, Ye Cheng had no way to think at all, only his mind was full of poignant questioning voices.
Ye Cheng's eyes were red, and he squatted on the ground with his head in his arms, the expression on his face was extremely painful.
"Yes, why should I kill them, obviously I don't have to hurt the innocent, it's obviously the fault of the commander, why should I kill these ordinary soldiers"
The resentful voices of those soldiers in their ears sounded again, and those soldiers slowly walked towards Ye Cheng, some stretched out their bloody palms, and some had their legs cut off, but they kept crawling towards Ye Cheng in the middle with their hands
"Die ......"
"Die ......"
"Give us our lives......"
Ye Cheng hugged his head and roared in pain, his eyes were bloodshot, and he had no way to think now
"How can I do it, am I a natural demon, no, I'm not a demon, I don't want to kill them......"
A faint voice suddenly sounded in my heart,
"You are the devil, you are cruel by nature, you take pleasure in killing, ostensibly for self-preservation, but you just like blood, like to torture people to death, and listen to people's howls before they die"
"No, I'm not, I don't want to kill!" Ye Cheng roared
"Since it's not, then go die, go to atone, go to give an explanation to those who died innocently, to prove yourself" The voice sounded directly in the bottom of my heart, as if I was tempting
"It's me who is guilty, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'll pay for your life......" Ye Cheng was already completely confused, and he couldn't stop muttering.
Those soldiers covered in blood had already crawled in front of Ye Cheng, and their blood-covered palms grabbed Ye Cheng's chest.
But Ye Cheng didn't seem to be aware of it, and he was still standing in place, without the slightest intention of resisting.
A soldier's eyes flashed with black gas, a strange smile appeared on his face, and his palm suddenly accelerated, about to insert into Ye Cheng's heart.
But at this moment, the smile on his face froze
A trembling arm, gripping his wrist tightly.
Ye Cheng's eyes were red, his face was distorted and painful, obviously still immersed in pain and self-blame, but he still reached out and grabbed the soldier's arm.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry," Ye Xiang roared like a madman
But he suddenly raised his head, and his red eyes looked like they were dripping blood
"However, no one, no one can kill me, no one in this world can kill me" Ye Cheng roared violently, his face hideous and roared
Bang
He suddenly pulled out the long knife at his waist, and a blood-colored sword light of dozens of feet pierced the sky
The surroundings exploded, hundreds of soldiers were blown up by the sword light, and some were directly cut apart by the sword qi in mid-air, and there were stumps and broken arms everywhere.
Dozens of feet away, the soldier slammed into the ground, leaving a large human-shaped crater.
The black aura on his face was condensed, but there was a look of horror in his eyes
"He's obviously still in the illusion, how can he still resist?"
In the distance, Ye Cheng's face was hideous, and his eyes were red with blood
"No one can kill me, no one can kill me, to die, to die" a roar kept ringing out
Several zhang long knives were constantly swung out, like bloody blades cutting through the night, and those soldiers were slashed by huge knives before they could get close, and a thick fresh smell filled the audience.
"Run, as long as I don't die, that monster will always be in the environment, and sooner or later it will die of exhaustion"
A grim look flashed in the eyes of the soldier lying in the pit, and he was about to get up and flee to the dense forest in the distance.
Whew
A gust of wind sounded in his ears, but a blood-colored figure suddenly appeared in front of his eyes,
The man was holding a long knife in his hand, but the originally bright long knife was now a blood-red color, blood kept dripping from his face, and a huge shadow enveloped him.
"No one can kill me, no one can kill me, give me death"
Ye Cheng was still red-eyed, his eyes were blank, and he kept talking to himself like a madman, like a wild beast roaring
The black-clothed soldier had a frightened look on his face, and his black qi flashed all over his body, and he swept directly a few feet away.
Suddenly, Ye Cheng suddenly raised his right hand, and a huge red sword light shone through the heavens and the earth, rushing directly towards the black-clothed figure not far away like a torrent.
"No," the black-clothed soldier screamed miserably, bursts of black mist flickering wildly, resisting the torrent of blood-colored swords.
But the sword was too terrifying, and it only lasted for a few breaths, and the black qi shattered
"Devil, you are the devil, you can still wield a knife to kill people even with guilt, you devil ......" "Ah......"
With a miserable scream, the black-clothed soldier was directly crushed by the red sword and dissolved in the torrent of sword qi.
Whew
There was silence between heaven and earth, until Ye Cheng's violent panting could be heard, and a faint silver moonlight sprinkled on the ground, casting a huge black shadow behind Ye Cheng.
After the death of the black armor soldier, the black mist floating in the air gradually faded, the red glow in Ye Cheng's eyes gradually faded, and a clear look began to appear on Qing's face.
He sat cross-legged on the hillside, with the blood-red knife at his side, and there was no joy or anger on his face.
Consciousness replied, the scene just now began to appear in front of him, the black mist dissipated, the battlefield in the distance was full of swords, and the corpses of the stumps and broken walls were piled up into a hill, he looked up at the moon in the sky, and suddenly remembered Ling'er's eyes that smiled like a crescent moon.
"It's so beautiful," he couldn't help but admire in his heart
After a long time, he finally stood up, pulled out the long knife in his hand, and there was no confusion in his eyes.
And as he got up, the space suddenly shattered, turning into countless black shards.
In front of him, he appeared in a courtyard again, and at this time he was wearing a moon-white robe, and the previous bloody clothes had long since disappeared.
"It's really ruthless, hundreds of people who died unjustly, you actually killed them when you said they would"
"Come on, join us, you have the potential to be us"
Two voices came out of the night, Ye Cheng had no weapons by his side, but he didn't panic in the slightest
Under the black eaves, two figures suddenly appeared.
One is a woman with a charming face, but the horror is that his body is densely covered with eyes, hundreds of eyes open and close, staring at Ye Cheng not far away very strangely.
The other was a huge figure more than three meters long, wrapped in a pitch-black carapace, with a black tail hook shining with a dark light, like a dagger hidden in the dark, two huge pincers in front of him, and a handsome face looking at Ye Cheng with a smile.
The Thousand-Eyed Demon and the Human-Faced Scorpion, these two ghosts that had obviously been killed appeared in front of them again.
But Ye Cheng's face did not fluctuate in the slightest, he already knew what this place was.
This is his inner demon, and he has seen such records in some classics before.
When the inner master cultivates to the point where he is about to break through the Tianyuan, some of the inner master will fall into an unknown illusion, which is said to be a dream or an illusion, but it is all real.
And the martial artists above Tianyuan call this illusion a heart demon.
The heart demon is unpredictable, some martial artists go all the way and directly break through the Tianyuan realm, and they will not fall into the inner demon at all, while some martial artists will fall into the inner demon at the peak of the transformation period.
According to the research of the Tian Yuan martial artists, the more solid and calm the heart, the less likely it is to encounter the heart demon, if the personality is impatient and the heart is crazy, then the probability of encountering the heart demon will be greatly increased.
According to the records in the book, if you die in the inner demon, you will also die in the outside world, and in reality, there are many changeling martial artists who died in the inner demon in this way, but their bodies were unharmed.
The demons are ever-changing, once they erupt, they are extremely terrifying, and the demons are often hidden in the deepest emotions in the heart, fear, guilt, sadness, and all the emotions that have been forcibly suppressed will be mobilized to form an illusion.
Ye Cheng went from an ordinary person who didn't know anything about internal qi to a master of the Transformational Realm who was above 10,000 people under one person, and it took less than a year.
Those masters of the Transformation Realm, which one has not gone through decades of hard work and tempering, whether it is glory and wealth, or life and death, decades of experience in the red dust have long forged their extremely calm hearts, so the possibility of encountering inner demons is extremely small.
But Ye Cheng is different, although he has the mental experience of his previous life, it is obviously not enough, not enough to control such a huge force, and even his perception of himself is not clear enough, so after breaking through the transformation, he directly fell into the inner demon.
