Chapter 82: Inheritance
"I'm kind enough to comfort me, but I can't get a good one. Stop playing, I'm gone. ”
Traumatized in his heart, Chen Liu picked up the orange and was about to leave, but the old man stopped him.
"Can you please do me a favor?"
"Senior wants me to help the demon clan?"
The old man didn't hide it and nodded.
Although he has been dead for an unknown number of springs and autumns, and this remnant soul will not last long, he still cares about his own clan in his heart.
Although Chen Liu guessed the reason, it was impossible to agree easily.
After thinking about it, he sat in front of the Demon Emperor Palace, peeled an orange, and planned to talk for a while before making a decision.
He handed a slice of orange to the old man, and asked by the way:
"You demon clan is not no one, what are you looking for me for?"
The old man didn't know if Chen Liu really didn't know or deliberately angered him, how could any soul eat oranges?
However, when he asked for help, he could only wave his hand and refuse, and then replied:
"I heard you say just now that the demon clan has fallen so far, it seems that they have lost their inheritance. No wonder no one has been able to ascend to the Demon Emperor Hall for so many years. ”
"Legacy?"
Hearing Chen Liu's question, the old man didn't care much about the rules of the demon clan, and explained to him:
"In fact, the inheritance of the second and third halls is quite strict, and those who are not gifted cannot enter. However, this Demon Emperor Hall is easy, as long as you get the token left by the Demon Ancestor, you can inherit the position of the Demon Emperor. Now it seems that the token of the demon ancestor has been lost. Otherwise, the demon lords you mentioned who can open the Sun Temple are definitely qualified to inherit the position of the Demon Emperor. ”
"I see."
From the time he heard about the situation of the demon clan in the 100,000 mountains, Chen Liu actually had doubts.
Why did the former Quartet hegemon suddenly become a population that survived in the cracks?
It is rumored that the demon clan was the co-master of the world, in the sky and on the earth, only me.
The human race, which is now in full swing, was just an inconspicuous branch of the demon clan at that time, and could only be bullied by the high-level demon clan.
Later, although the human race rose and broke the rule of the demon race, it did not really break the foundation of the demon race.
Today's situation has become the current situation, and it turns out that the supreme inheritance of the past has been severed.
"Can the senior find the token?"
"What do you say?"
Chen Liu looked at the wandering remnant soul and immediately realized that he had asked more.
If you can find a remnant soul, do you still need to ask him for help?
"That's not for nothing."
"There is another way, which is to forcibly break into the Demon Emperor Palace, accept the test of the Demon Emperors of the past dynasties, and also be crowned as the emperor!"
"Are you telling me to call someone? Understand, which one? ”
Chen Liu didn't care much about which one was the Demon Emperor, anyway, there was a Demon Emperor in the 100,000 Great Mountains, and the most headache was the Buddha Gate Vulture Mountain, which could also relieve his pressure.
But the old man with the goatee only sighed faintly, and said:
"This method is set by the Demon Ancestor, and the requirements are quite strict. It is absolutely impossible to forcibly break the ban of the Demon Emperor Palace. ”
"And how did I get up?"
"What is your ring...... It is the most forbidden artifact in the world. ”
Chen Liu thought that the broken ring was pretending to be dead again, but he didn't expect it to guide him up.
Referring to this, Chen Liu came up with a way:
"How about I pull someone up?"
"No, I can't. Even if that person arrives here and opens the Demon Emperor Palace, it will definitely be impossible to pass the test of the Demon Emperors of the past dynasties, but he may die and be buried here. ”
The old man again rejected the offer.
This made Chen Liu a little angry, and said angrily:
"I said senior, this can't do that, just tear down the Demon Emperor Palace, so as not to bother."
"The Demon Emperor Hall is the dojo of the Demon Emperors of the past dynasties, how can it be demolished? What's more, if you are not a first-class master, you can't even break the barrier of the Demon Emperor Palace, let alone anything else. Of course, there is actually a supplementary part to this method, which is the demon ancestor back then...... Forget it, it's hard to tell you. ”
"Then I'm leaving."
Chen Liu was about to listen to the strange anecdote, but stopped halfway through.
I couldn't stand it, and I immediately decided to leave.
The old man just hurriedly grabbed him, coaxed him to talk badly, and didn't let him go.
After all, with the power of his remnant soul, if that ring exerts its power, the Demon Emperor Palace will not be able to keep Chen Liu.
No one spoke for too long, and his remnant soul was a little lonely. At this moment, I can only blame myself for being cheap, and the supreme will tell the story.
"Back then, the Demon Ancestor actually fell in love with a man, and this rule was set up because of him. But the person that the Demon Ancestor likes is a little special......"
"Who is it?"
"The Ancestor of the Daomen."
Dao Ancestor is the ancestor of the Dao Law in the world, far before Dao Zun, he is the first cultivator in the world.
"? So exciting? But what does the bull nose old man like. ”
The old man replied in a pretended deep voice:
"He is not a bull-nosed old man, back then Daozu was a young Taoist priest, and he was also the most handsome man in heaven and earth, and the woman who chased him could line up from 100,000 mountains to the South China Sea. It's just that some people are reticent and don't like to socialize with others. ”
"I didn't expect Daomen to have such a past."
In Chen Liu's cognition, although the Daomen does not have as many rules and precepts as the Buddhism, it is still relatively pure-hearted and has few desires.
Dao Ancestor, as the patriarch of Daomen, actually has such a romantic affair.
"Yes, but this Dao Ancestor doesn't care about the private affairs of these men and women. Back then, the Demon Ancestor fell in love with him, and he only said one word......"
"You're a good guy."
"How do you kid know?"
"Pure blindness."
This kind of words, I didn't expect Dao Ancestor to be the pioneer.
Chen Liu stopped the old man from continuing to ask questions and asked him to continue telling the story.
Later, the demon ancestor escaped into the 100,000 mountains in a fit of anger and did not come out of the world. In fact, it is rumored that the Demon Ancestor is waiting for the Dao Ancestor to change his mind, as long as he is willing to come to Kunwu Shenmu, she is willing to forgive him. ”
"So Dao Ancestor didn't pay attention to the disappearance of the Demon Ancestor in the end?"
The old man nodded bitterly.
As the source of the bloodline of the demon clan, the defeat of the demon ancestor is a shame for the entire demon clan.
The future demon emperors all tacitly erased this story, and the Daomen side didn't seem to be interested in announcing the ancestor's complete victory.
"So what does this have to do with the Demon Emperor Palace?"
"The Demon Ancestor has issued an edict that if someone wants to forcibly inherit the throne of the Demon Emperor, the two of them can go through the level together. The premise is that the two are genuinely in love. ”
Hearing this, Chen Liu suddenly realized.
It turned out that the demon ancestor courted fruitlessly, so he wanted to make up for it from his juniors.
"Is that to find a couple to come up and be tested?"
"Hmm. And not only will the test not become difficult, but it can be helped by the power left by the demon ancestor. ”
"The demon ancestor is really infatuated."
Chen Liu didn't dare to say anything about this, and he gave up after listening to the romantic past of the older generation.
If he dares to speak out, there is a high probability that he will be hunted down to the ends of the earth by the demon clan, and even the Daomen will come to the door to ask for an explanation.
Then he talked to the old man with the goatee about something else.
The position of the Demon Emperor represents the power that the old man is not convenient to reveal to Chen Liu, but if the Demon Emperor can appear, he will be able to narrow the gap with the Buddhism and not succumb to the 100,000 mountains.
However, even if this test can be opened, it is still a test of a product.
"These are some of the methods I practice. You hand it over to the contemporary demon lord and let her cultivate to the first grade as soon as possible. ”
took a piece of tortoise shell that was not too big or small, with ancient characters of the demon clan written on it that Chen Liu couldn't understand, and Chen Liu promised to give it to Taiwa.
"Didn't the seniors think about other people?"
The old man shook his head.
"Those second grades have actually tried the opening of the second and third halls. Kunpeng has too many thoughts, but as a demon master, he can't be a demon emperor. The snake and the heaven-swallowing beast have two elm heads, well-developed limbs and simple minds, and this life is destined to stop at the status quo. Only this little snake is a little interesting. ”
It turned out that the old man's awakening was not entirely because of Chen Liu.
It's just that the current demon clan doesn't even have the ability to go to the Demon Emperor's Palace, so there is no way to discover the remnant soul of this Demon Emperor.
The old man actually felt a few people rushing through the pass in a trance.
However, they couldn't even break the second and third halls, let alone the Demon Emperor Palace.
"Okay, I'll go and urge the marriage later...... By the way, do you mind two women as companions? ”
"What do you mean?"
The old man's face was full of doubt.
After hearing Chen Liu explain a few words to him, he suddenly realized.
"I've been dead for too long to understand your young people's minds. However, the demon ancestor should refer to the two sides of yin and yang. ”
"Come on."
After Chen Liu agreed, he planned to go back to the palace to do errands.
He has only experienced the matter of urging marriage, and he has not urged it yet.
But he was stopped by the old man again.
"You don't want to order something?"
"I said senior, do you demon clans like to deliver to your door so much?"
"What do you mean?"
"Nothing. In fact, I have some grudges with Buddhism, and the demon clan has a demon emperor, which is good for me. What's more, you're like this, seniors, and I can't bear to take your things to heart. ”
The old man didn't have his heart, so of course he couldn't guess Chen Liu's thoughts.
He just felt that he did owe something, and a pendant necklace appeared in his hand, on which a crystal clear gemstone was strung with it.
"There is no reason to take advantage of you in vain, this drop of phoenix blood is given to you."
"Phoenix blood? Old man, you won't lie to me with pebbles, will you? ”
Chen Liu took the pendant and teased it.
The old man rolled his eyes and reached out to take it back, but was dodged by Chen Liu.
"I also want pebbles, so it's a light courtesy."
Chen Liu finally asked a question:
"Senior, what's your name?"
"Why is the dead asking this?"
"I've been talking for a while, and I'm a friend. My name is Chen Liu. ”
"You kid...... The old man's name is Feng Caoxi. ”
"The name of the good soil."
"Let's go, don't be angry with me here."
The old and the young waved goodbye at the end.
Chen Liu left an orange before leaving.
The old man looked at the orange, and then at the banner of ten thousand demons that had fought with him, sighed, explained the future, and understood his wish, and finally he swayed away with a wisp of breeze.
In the distance, Chen Liu put down the orange in his arms and bowed deeply to the place where the old man disappeared.
Not for anything else, just to bid farewell to an old man's departure.
