98. The Battle of the Covenant (2)
Huang Chang thought about it for a while, and said with a slight smile:
"That doesn't sound like much of a good deal for me, and whether I win or lose, I'm going to face a much stronger opponent. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"
And that day the demon actually patiently explained:
"The primordial spirit is your projection in the Holy Realm, it is you, you are it. Everything about you, it knows. It exists to take your body and replace everything you have in the world. Its means against the enemy, and even the way of thinking, all come from yourself, and it may not be the strongest, but it is certainly the greatest threat to you. ”
"And if you change the inner core, it's nothing more than relying on your ability to fight again. Our Holy Spirit devours each other like you human beings, and even if you succeed, there will definitely be some loss, if you can seize the opportunity...... In the future, the battle of the Mind Slayer may become easier. ”
"Probably ......"
Huang Chang pondered for a moment, and then suddenly asked:
"According to what you said, we cultivators will definitely encounter our own inner demons, so before that, wouldn't this inner demon be invincible in the demon realm?
One of the demons' heads was no longer responsive, only the last remaining head was still shaking slightly, and the sneering expression on the corner of his mouth looked very reluctant:
"Not invincible, but numerous. As long as your essence is still there, even if the primordial spirit disappears, a new one will emerge...... Will your shadow disappear forever at sunrise and sunset?"
"That's right......"
There are still many doubts in Huang Chang's mind - the newborn Yuan Spirit is very fragile, doesn't that mean that as long as you are lucky, the heart demon you encounter may just be a newly formed demon realm glow fire? But judging from the records of Kunlun's predecessors in the past dynasties, it seems that no one has ever encountered this kind of "good luck", and the heart slaying demon has always been regarded as a very difficult pass, and those who have great wisdom and perseverance cannot pass it.
Or is it understandable that the rebirth of the demons is not entirely self-made, but can be preserved from the past, and if that is understandable, almost all the accounts of the demons say that they are extremely cunning, and that all sorts of strange tactics are often difficult to guard against. If it's an old guy who has been "reborn" many times in the harsh environment of the Demon Realm, then it's in line with this state.
Thoughts were churning in his mind, but Huang Chang didn't open his mouth to ask the other party again—this Heavenly Demon was not an enthusiastic mentor, and what it said might not represent the truth. However, Huang Chang firmly believes in one thing: even if it is a lie, it must be based on certain facts. Completely unfounded nonsense will only be seen through at a glance, and there is no threat.
On the other hand, this Heavenly Demon is indeed about to hang up, of course, Huang Chang will not relax his vigilance because of this, no matter what, he has always maintained a considerable safe distance from the other party, and the fire dragon stick in his hand has never been put down. It's just that in this way, it's no longer realistic to get some long answers from the mouth of this heavenly demon, maybe there is only a chance for the last sentence or two, what should I ask?
Huang Chang didn't think much about it, and quickly asked again:
"You said earlier that the winner of the battle will be given the gift of Haotian, so that he can go one step closer to ascending to the immortal. What exactly is this 'gift from the sky', can you talk about it carefully?"
- This real Xianxia world is not the computer game he played in his previous life after all, after fighting hard to defeat the big boss, the final thing he gets must be a good thing. The "godsend" that is beneficial to the monsters may be fatal to them humans.
Although he has won this battle and may soon be able to get the benefits of that "godsend", Huang Chang still hopes to learn as much information as possible and find out the situation before making a decision.
However, the dying Heavenly Demon seemed to have guessed his thoughts, and instead "hissed" laughed again at his question.
"I said it, can you believe it? Everything I told you before could be false...... To say, or not to say, it's up to me. To believe, or not to believe, is up to you...... Haha!"
In the end, the Heavenly Demon actually returned the two sentences that Huang Chang had just given him back as they were, and then, in a burst of unbridled laughter, was silent.

The death of the Heavenly Demon seems to mean the end of this "Heavenly Demon Sacrifice", or "Fight". As streamers of light and fireflies floated up and down from the demon's body, the heavenly path that had originally disappeared and closed, and the spatial portal to the demon realm opened again.
After experiencing the previous danger, the surrounding human monks were already very wary of the Demon Realm Fireflies. But this time, those Demon Realm Fireflies that came out of the Heavenly Demon were not as aggressive as they were originally from the Demon Realm. Much smaller, much darker, like small points of light like fireflies, this time there were signs of complete attack, but they all couldn't wait to fly towards the spatial passage floating in the air, one by one, like meteors, quickly disappeared into the passage.
And what attracted everyone's attention was not only the space channel, but the space channel as the core, a huge halo pattern. The sky was dark tonight, and a large number of puffy clouds floated over the valley, blocking the entire sky in this area.
Now, however, there were dots of light shining through the clouds, forming a huge circular formation, in which traces of ancient spells composed of points of light filled it, reflecting the clouds themselves in detail.
Huang Chang took a deep breath - this was clearly some kind of sacrificial formation, it seemed to be slightly similar to the blood sacrificial array he had encountered in the "Salvation Sect" incident in Linquan County before, but it was much older and more difficult to identify. It's just that it's no longer buried deep underground, it's suspended in the air.
And these people, including the entire valley battlefield, were also under the shroud of this formation.
Before Huang Chang could think about whether he should let everyone evacuate the enveloping area of this formation first, he had already seen its effect - under the shroud of the formation, the corpses of all the previous battle dead, including humans, demon clans, and even the witch barbarian, and even the body of the monk who was possessed by demonic fire before and still remained in a demonic state after death, began to decay and age rapidly, and finally became a cloud of ash and dust, completely integrated with the earth.
Huang Chang originally thought that even if there was no other gain in this battle, that witch barbarian's body could be regarded as a good trophy after all-because the demon clan still had some survivors, he was not good at openly provoking, otherwise the body of the minotaur was also an excellent spiritual material, how could he sell it for two or three thousand spirit stones if he carried it back.
But now there is nothing left, even the bones have quickly melted away, and there is really nothing left except a handful of dust!
