Chapter 9: Inheriting the Heavenly Demon Sutra
Lin Qiu listened to Chi You's words, nodded constantly, and at the same time, a sense of admiration for Chi You's righteousness arose spontaneously, this is the real hero.
"Okay, I haven't spoken for so many years, but I've become nagging, and I feel a lot happier to be able to say these words, junior, you're the one chosen by the prophet, right?"
After saying so many words, Chi You's emotions also calmed down, and he immediately said to Lin Qiu.
"You know the Prophet?" As soon as he said it, Lin Qiu realized his stupidity, although Chi You was just a wisp of soul now, he believed that many things that happened in the outside world could not escape his perception, with the means of heaven before his death, how could he not know the prophet?
"Well, understand a little, the prophet is a secret bag left by the god Nuwa to mankind, and it will only appear when mankind is about to face the catastrophe of extinction, when the first generation of prophets was born, I had not completely fallen into a deep sleep, so I sensed his breath. Many years ago, I felt this familiar breath again, so I woke up from my slumber, and I knew that the catastrophe of mankind was coming again, so I guided the prophet to find this "Heavenly Demon Sutra", hoping that someone could cultivate, so as to make another contribution to the catastrophe of mankind. ”
"Logically speaking, prophets should often appear when the catastrophe has happened, but I don't know why the prophets of this generation woke up so early, but the birth of the prophet shows that the catastrophe of mankind is coming, and it is your destiny that you can be chosen, and you can choose this "Heavenly Demon Sutra", which can be regarded as the fate of you and me, when I am dying, I will try my best to help you, the strength of this generation of prophets is very weak, the things he can predict are limited, and the future will depend on you, you must not have the slightest slack, you know?"
"Yes! The teachings of his predecessors were kept in mind by Lin Qiu. ”
"Well, Lin Qiu, you have a tough personality and a great sense of righteousness, which is similar to you and me, remember what I asked you just now what you saw in the picture? If you don't see the devastation of life, the fate of you and me will be over, and I won't tell you so many things about me, you remember, the strong, if you don't have a benevolent heart, you can't help the people in the world, not only will you not lead the human race to take off in the future, but will become an obstacle on the road to the development of the human race. ”
"Yes, the disciple remembers it in his heart." Lin Qiu couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, he believed that if the first thing he said was not the destruction of life, it was very likely that Chi You would wipe him out here, after all, if he couldn't bring a turnaround to the human race, but might cause damage, then for Chi You, his existence would have no meaning.
Therefore, Lin Qiu, who calmed down, also changed his name to Chi You, after all, he also had to accept his inheritance, and it was also appropriate to call him a master, and Lin Qiu believed that with Chi You's identity, if he recognized him as a disciple, he would definitely not be treated badly.
"Hahaha, you kid, you're smart." Chi You couldn't see Lin Qiu's little abacus, and said with a smile.
Lin Qiu's face flushed, but he didn't hear the meaning of refusal from Chi You's words, so he hurriedly hit the snake stick, immediately knelt on the ground, and kowtowed three times towards Chi You.
"Master is above, please accept the apprentice's three bows."
Chi You had a trace of hesitation, but in the end he didn't avoid it and endured Lin Qiu's three bows. After Lin Qiu finished kowtowing, Chi You held him up and said: "Lin Qiu, I don't know if it's right or wrong to take you as an apprentice, I am a dead person who doesn't know the youth, even this only trace of remnant soul is about to dissipate, there is not much I can teach you, but since you call me Master, I will try my best again." ”
"Master, is there no way to resurrect you? You have survived in this Heavenly Demon Sutra for such a long time, how can you ......," Lin Qiu said eagerly.
"Hehe, child, don't be sad, people will die eventually, even if it is a god, there will be a day of death, there are rules in the world, there are rules in the divine realm, and there may be a higher existence above the divine realm. I'm already satisfied to be able to contribute to the human race after 10,000 years. There was no trace of sadness on Chiyou's face, only satisfaction and relief.
"You take this, you must keep it."
As he spoke, Chi You took out a small crimson brand, only the size of half a palm, and handed it to Lin Qiu.
"What is this?"
Lin Qiu looked at this small sign carefully, the brand was made of metal, the same body was red, and the word "Yan" was clearly engraved on it, and it felt very smooth, and there was a faint warmth coming out.
"This is the Order of the Yan Emperor." Chiyou's voice came.
"Emperor Yan Order? Could it be ...... This is the token of the Yan Emperor? Lin Qiu said in disbelief.
"Yes, this is Emperor Yan's thing, it can also be regarded as a token of Emperor Yan, Emperor Yan's order once had a supreme symbol of power in our Jiuli tribe, and it can only be held by those who take over the position of patriarch of the Yan Emperor clan, seeing Emperor Yan's order is like Emperor Yan's face." Chiyou explained.
"Then how could this Yan Emperor Decree ......?"
"You want to ask how the Yan Emperor's Order came into my hands, right?"
Lin Qiu nodded.
"Hey, speaking of which, this can be regarded as Emperor Yan's compensation for me or he is atoning for his sins." Chiyou shook his head and sighed, and continued.
"When I failed in the battle of the deer and was killed by the Yellow Emperor, almost the soul was wiped out, only this trace of remnant soul escaped to this "Heavenly Demon Sutra", after the war, the Yellow Emperor and the Yan Emperor unified the human race, but later they also realized their mistakes, and added the title of 'Soldier Master' to me, so many years have passed, I actually don't blame them anymore."
"After Emperor Yan learned that he was wrong to blame me, he regretted it, he gave up ascending to the god realm, turned to incarnate Shennong, and dedicated his life to human beings, he walked through thousands of mountains and rivers, tasted all kinds of herbs, invented and cultivated, and future generations admired him for eternity, but he also had another purpose, that is, to find me."
"Finally one day, he found the "Heavenly Demon Sutra", I am too familiar with Emperor Yan, even if it is a trace of my soul, he also senses my breath, he kneels in front of the "Heavenly Demon Sutra" and repents, begging for my forgiveness, although I still hate him at that time, he was a good brother after all, looking at his haggard appearance, I couldn't bear it after all, I forgave him."
"Then he gave me this 'Emperor Yan Order', he told me that the Yan Emperor clan will obey my orders in the future, of course I refused, but he said that he has made it clear to his descendants, no matter how long or eternal, the person who holds the Yan Emperor Decree is the master of the Yan Emperor lineage, and he will not return to the clan, he has tasted all the herbs, there are too many toxins accumulated in his body, and his life will not be long, if I want to accept this Yan Emperor Order, I may be able to use it in the future."
"Actually, I know that Emperor Yan lied to me, it is not difficult to dissolve some toxins with his strength, but I can feel that he has been living in pain, thousands of years, maybe death is also a relief, I didn't persuade him, after accepting Emperor Yan's order, I didn't think that I would use it one day, now at this time, I will give him to you, with the inheritance of Emperor Yan's family, it will definitely not break the bloodline, use it well, maybe you can have more help in the future."
"But you must remember that the ancient race respects the strong, after Emperor Yan, his descendants have made great contributions to the human race, Emperor Kui, Emperor Cheng, Emperor Ming, Emperor Zhi, Emperor Yu, Emperor Ai, Emperor Ke, Emperor Yu, each of them has no less strength than Emperor Yan back then, and until now, there may still be people alive among them, if they live, they must be god-level powerhouses, so when your strength is not enough, you must not think about looking for them, when your strength arrives, you will naturally come into contact with that world."
"In addition, after so many years, it is unknown whether they will obey Emperor Yan's orders, after all, god-level powerhouses are not something that can be commanded casually, you must be more careful, your own strength is fundamental, and other external forces are secondary."
"Okay, the apprenticeship is also for you, let's accept the inheritance, don't worry, this "Heavenly Demon Sutra" is not as dangerous as the prophet outside said, because after so many years of my improvement, those hidden dangers have long been removed, but the only thing is that the "Heavenly Demon Sutra" is demon cultivation after all, that is, using demonic qi as a guide, transforming into the elemental attributes you comprehend, demon cultivation, are you willing?" Chiyou asked.
"Doing good deeds for God, doing evil deeds for demons, sword killing for murder weapons, saving people for the blade of law, disciples will stick to their hearts, punish evil and promote good."
"Good, good, good, it's not easy to have such an understanding at a young age, and close your eyes and accept the inheritance of your teacher." Chi You was very satisfied with Lin Qiu's answer, and even said three good words in a row.
Hearing Chi You's words, Lin Qiu hurriedly calmed down, suddenly, Lin Qiu only felt that his eyebrows were touched again, and there were many more things in his mind, and after combing it carefully, he had a basic understanding, not only the cultivation method of the "Heavenly Demon Sutra" in his mind, but also Chi You's perception and some elemental skills for thousands of years.
Opening his eyes, Lin Qiu bowed down to Chi You again, Chi You stopped him in time, and said: "There is no need to be so polite, if these feelings are not passed on to you, they will dissipate with me, and now you can get it is also your fate, and in the future, use them to benefit the human race, and it can be regarded as realizing their value." ”
"The disciple remembers, in the future, it will be his responsibility to save the human race, the disciple is here, and the human race will exist."
"Well, remember your words today. Now you go out and talk to the prophet first, he is already in a hurry, explain to him and come back, I still have some time, and then I will tell you about the cultivation method of the "Heavenly Demon Sutra", as long as you enter the cultivation state, you can naturally see me, go. ”
"Yes, Master."
At this time, the prophet standing beside Lin Qiu was already a little flustered, this Heavenly Demon Sutra should not have been handed over to Lin Qiu, in case something happened to Lin Qiu for this reason, he would be a great sinner of the human race. Seeing that 7 days had passed, Lin Qiu still didn't move at all, several times the prophet wanted to forcibly wake up Lin Qiu, but he endured it, he was worried that the sudden attack would cause irreparable damage to Lin Qiu.
Just as the prophet finally made up his mind to wake Lin Qiu up, Lin Qiu's eyes suddenly opened, and the hand that the prophet had raised was still raised in midair.
Seeing Lin Qiu wake up, the prophet finally breathed a sigh of relief: "You finally woke up, how are you?" Have you comprehended the cultivation method of the Heavenly Demon Sutra? Alas, I really don't know if it's right or wrong for me to hand over this "Heavenly Demon Sutra" to you. ”
"Thank you, Prophet, I have preliminarily comprehended the cultivation of the Heavenly Demon Sutra, and the content is a bit too much, which makes you worry." Lin Qiu said gratefully.
"It's okay, it's okay, you kid scared me a lot, I almost forced you to wake up."
Lin Qiu had to smile bitterly, but his heart was full of warmth.
