Chapter 886: The Great Demon King's Salvation Heart
"Haha, you don't have to be so nervous, the old man won't be angry with you for distraction. Seeing that Ye Zan's reply was a little unnatural, the former sect leader couldn't help laughing, and then said indifferently: "What's more, for tens of thousands of years, the old man has been trapped here alone, and it is rare to see someone who can speak, how can he be willing to treat you!"
Hearing the other party's words, Ye Zan secretly wiped a handful of sweat in his heart, obviously in the eyes of the other party, that is, an existence that relieves boredom. Although this feeling is not good, it at least means that his distraction is safe for the time being. If he coaxes the other party to be happy, maybe he will have a chance to leave this place unscathed.
"Seniors, this place of nothingness, there is nothing, I don't know how the predecessors have been ...... for tens of thousands of years Survived?" Ye Zan relieved himself, and first asked a question in his heart.
You must know that if this is a general forbidden Jedi, it is still possible to live for tens of thousands of years with the longevity that the method realm can have. After all, although cultivators don't rely much on eating and drinking, they need a certain amount of "nutrition" if they want to maintain the immortality of their physical bodies. Otherwise, once the physical body cannot be maintained and decays, any remaining primordial gods and the like will become rootless duckweed.
However, this is a place of nothingness, not to mention the usual food and drink, not even the aura and the air to breathe. In such an environment, no matter what kind of person they are, they can't get any supplements from the outside world, and they can only consume their own mana to maintain the vitality of their physical body.
However, a person's mana is limited after all, not to mention that this sect master was only in the Dharma Realm at the beginning, even if it was in the Heavenly Realm. When Ye Zan cleaned up Tongtian Peak, the power of the Tongtian Supreme could not last for thousands of years in the Tongtian Peak Great Array. So, how did this sect leader persist for tens of thousands of years and wait until Ye Zan's arrival?
"Oh, the old man is just using the art of fake death, you have passed tens of thousands of years, and the old man is only equivalent to hundreds of years. The former sect leader replied casually, but he didn't intend to talk to Ye Zan in detail, and then urged: "You don't have to worry about him, the old man is very curious now, how the old man is arranged outside." ”
The art of feigned death?
Although the other party did not elaborate, Ye Zan heard this, combined with the next sentence, but also understood the reason why the other party could live for so long. To put it bluntly, the other party's so-called fake death technique should be like what people often call turtle breath, or like some animals hibernating, completely adjusting themselves to a state of minimal consumption.
For example, an average person's heartbeat may be sixty or seventy beats a minute. Then, if it becomes six or seven beats a minute, it is equivalent to a tenfold increase in time. Although this is not accurate, it is probably what it means, so the former sect leader said that he was only equivalent to spending hundreds of years.
With the mana of a Dharma Minister, without supplies from the outside world, there is no problem in maintaining the immortality of the physical body for hundreds of years. Although, in that state, the other party may lose most of their reactions to the outside world, there is no other danger in this void.
Of course, Ye Zan's purpose in changing the topic was obviously unsuccessful, and the other party was still asking about the outside world's statements.
"This ......" Ye Zan hesitated for a moment, but thought that he was just a wisp of distraction, and he was not angry when he looked at the other party, so he said: "The junior is indeed a few elders of the Moyi Sect, and he has told some things about the seniors. They said that the senior was the last leader of the Moyi Sect......"
Ye Zan had just said half of his words when the former sect leader suddenly interjected and said curiously, "You said that the old man is the last sect leader of the Moyi Sect?"
After all, the Moyi Sect's change to the current "collegial elders" system was after the former sect leader was driven into the Void. Therefore, it was reasonable that the former sect leader did not know that his actions back then had actually caused such a big change in the Moyi Sect.
Ye Zan paused, and after listening to the other party's inquiry, he nodded and said, "Yes, according to them, what the seniors did back then made them feel that it was not a good thing for the Moyi Sect and the entire domain to be in power alone. Therefore, since then, the Moyi Sect has never re-established its leader, and all matters must be decided by the collegiate deliberations of the elders. ”
"Hehe, this really looks like what they did!" When the former sect leader heard this, his face suddenly showed a look of understanding, as if he shook his head with a little emotion, and then asked: "So, you should have also told you, what did the old man do back then?"
"Yes!" Ye Zan nodded in response.
"Then let's go ahead and hear it!" said the former sect leader with great interest.
They told the juniors that in order to break the shackles of heaven and earth in this realm and allow themselves to break through the realm of the law phase, the seniors had made countless attempts, and finally chose one...... Blood sacrifices to the way of life. As a result, the elders of the sect, in order to save the world, worked together to destroy the ...... of their predecessors conspiracy, and forced the predecessors into this land of nothingness. Ye Zan said slowly, and briefly told the former sect leader the information he had heard from Elder Yu.
From Elder Yu and them, Ye Zan had not heard anything that was too detailed about the events of the year. Therefore, in front of the former sect leader, Ye Zan can talk about so much, but the cause and effect are relatively clear.
To put it bluntly, in the statements of the Moyi sect, this former sect leader is like a great demon king who destroys the world, in order to obtain more powerful power, he wants to sacrifice the common people in the world. The elders of the Moyi Sect acted as the so-called saviors, and at the cost of their lives, they stopped the evil deeds of the Great Demon King, and finally restored the Moyi Realm to a clear place.
After Ye Zan finished saying this, he was also a little apprehensive, so he could only hang there quietly, not knowing how the other party would react after hearing it.
However, what Ye Zan didn't expect was that after hearing the outside statement, the former sect leader did not look angry, but nodded with a smile and said, "It turns out that this is how they describe the old man, which is also expected by the old man." ”
Seeing the other party's reaction like this, Ye Zan felt a little puzzled, and couldn't help but ask tentatively: "What do seniors mean, are these things they talking about different from the facts, or are they not different?"
In Ye Zan's mind, no matter whether this former sect leader is really as said outside, he should defend himself at this time. If the other party is really a big demon king, in the face of a person who has the potential to help him out, he must try his best to leave a good impression. If the other party is wronged, then naturally he has to defend himself and expose the despicable faces of those people outside.
Of course, Ye Zan didn't completely believe the statements of Elder Yu and others outside, after all, history is written by the victors. It's just that he wants to win over such an ally for Yuqingzong, so whether the other party's statement is true or false is naturally not so important.
To put it mildly, what happened back then, whether the creatures in this realm were dead or alive had nothing to do with Ye Zan. He is not so responsible for the world, and he will not explode with a sense of justice for some irrelevant things. Therefore, compared to the advantages of an alliance with the Moyi, even if the Moyi were lying, he would not refuse to be with them.
Now, Ye Zan asked the former sect leader if there were any discrepancies in those descriptions, and it was more to take care of the other party's emotions. After all, if it was possible, he didn't want to lose a wisp of distraction and the Void armor used by this robot.
However, the former sect leader was also a human spirit, and obviously guessed Ye Zan's thoughts, and asked jokingly, "Hehe, do you care if there is a discrepancy in this?"
Ye Zan, who was guessed in his thoughts, smiled slightly embarrassedly and said: "It stands to reason that this is all a matter that the predecessors and Moyi taught themselves, and there is no reason for outsiders to get to the bottom of it in the next one." However, didn't the seniors also say that they want someone to accompany them to chat a few words? Of course, there must be some topics in this chat, so if the seniors don't mind, they really want to listen to what kind of discrepancies there are. ”
The former sect leader looked at Ye Zan, perhaps satisfied with Ye Zan's acquaintance, and with a smile on his face, he nodded and said, "Hehe, you probably think that the old man should defend his good life at this time, right? Unfortunately, although their statements are a little different from the truth, one thing is right. ”
Although he was once again told that his mind was broken, Ye Zan was also a little immune to this, and immediately asked with an unchanging face: "Which point?"
The former sect master's face did not show the slightest trace of shame and remorse, as if everything was taken for granted: "Back then, the old man really wanted to sacrifice the sentient beings of the realm with blood to break the shackles of heaven and earth in this realm, and they were right on this point!"
Although Ye Zan is not a righteous person, when he heard the other party admit this matter in person, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
As an outsider, Ye Zan has no concerns in the Moyi Domain, and he really doesn't care about the lives of all beings in this realm. However, that doesn't mean that he has the "courage" to do that kind of thing with his own hands that will destroy all beings in this world.
Indeed, before Ye Zan came to the Moyi Domain, he prepared a lot of "big killing weapons" as hole cards, in case the Moyi Sect was unfavorable to him. However, he was only there just in case, in order to deter the enemy at a critical moment. Moreover, when it comes to the critical moment, whether he will use those things is actually a question mark.
Seeing that the other party said these things without care, Ye Zan felt quite puzzled while feeling cold in his heart, so he followed up and asked: "In this case, I don't know where the discrepancies and exits that my predecessors said before?"
This Blood Sacrifice Realm is already the most serious "accusation", but the former sect leader of the Moyi Sect directly admitted it. So, in Elder Yu's description, apart from this most serious "accusation", is there anything else worth reversing black and white?
The former sect leader accepted the "accusation" very calmly, and then said with a little unhappiness: "The old man wants to sacrifice blood to the common people and break the shackles of heaven and earth in this realm, but it is not as they say, just so that he can break through the realm. Back then, if the old man's plan was successful, not only would the old man be able to break through the realm, but others would also benefit from it. Even, this Dao of Heaven and Earth in the Moyi Domain Realm will also be upgraded to the Great Dao of the First Rank Domain Realm, isn't this a thing of immeasurable merit?"
The other party's words surprised Ye Zan very much, it turned out that the "big demon king" in front of him actually had a heart to "save the world".
However, thinking about the other party's words carefully, Ye Zan had to admit that there was indeed some truth in them.
If the other party is really as Elder Yu said, it is just for himself to break through the realm. Then, the Blood Sacrifice Domain Realm is actually not a very efficient choice, that is to say, it is a bit "too strong". There is a big gap between the Dharma Phase Realm and the Tongtian Realm. But that gap will not be filled with the lives of the people of the domain realm.
As mentioned earlier, although due to the problem of the Great Dao, even if the people of this domain realm reach the outer realm, it is impossible for them to break through the realm immediately. Especially, people like them who already have their own Great Dao and have reached a certain level of comprehension of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth.
But that's not to say that they really don't have the slightest possibility, it's just that there will be great difficulties. For others, those difficulties may be difficult to solve. But compared to the common people of the Blood Sacrifice Domain Realm, those difficulties were actually nothing.
In other words, if this former sect leader really only wants to break through the realm by himself and be promoted from the Law Realm to the Heavenly Supreme, it seems that going to the outer realm is a better choice.
Although, that would mean that he would let go of the power of this realm and go to the Outlands as if he had left his home, and he might never be able to return. However, with the cultivation of other Dharma realms, they can also quickly gain the corresponding status in the outer realms. Those great sects and great sects in the outer regions are afraid that they will promise all kinds of benefits and invite him to be the guest elder, and the cultivation resources will definitely be indispensable to him.
And this former sect leader did not choose to go to the outer lands, but chose the way of blood sacrifice that was even more resistant and would be infamous. Then, unless he is attached to the position of the sect leader, it is really as he said, and it is not just for his own realm breakthrough.
In fact, from the perspective of being above humans, the former sect leader's actions are not entirely condemnable. It doesn't seem entirely a bad thing to elevate the Heaven and Earth Great Dao of this Domain Realm through the way of the Blood Sacrifice Domain Realm, so that this Moyi Domain Realm can reach the same height as other Domain Realms.
