Chapter Forty-Eight: Chiyou
"Demon Venerable, I also want to ask you a question. At this time, Yukimi spoke. The more information she learned, the less she feared and disgusted Chonglou as she had been at the beginning.
Say. ”
"It's strange, those powerful demons have their own national capitals. Then you are a Demon Venerable, where is the capital of the country?"
"It's right at your feet. Ten thousand lonely peaks, the peak of the Nine Secluded Land, second only to the peak of the Beast Emperor Mountain, this is my royal capital. ”
"Oh. Yukimi was a little disappointed. Originally, she thought that as the Demon Venerable of Chonglou, he would requisition the Yuyu clan to build the most majestic and magnificent royal city in the Demon Realm for him.
"Oops!" Xue Jian thought in his heart, but Sedum said bluntly, "I thought it was some kind of great castle, but it was just a mountain and a seat, a little shabby!"
"Shabby?haha!" Chonglou looked up to the sky and laughed, "Do you have this vision now? I take the Demon Cloud Sky as the roof, the Blood-Eyed Demon Moon as the lamp and candle, the Nine Shadows Earth as the floor, and the magma and fire lake as the gargle pool, and the magnificent royal capital of the Yu clan and all the gorgeous things in the Demon Realm are only for me to set up furniture!"
"What a big breath!" Hearing his words, Yukimi stuck out his tongue.
"Not bad. Sedum listened to Chonglou's words, but suddenly felt something, "I'm afraid you can walk on the lonely peak of ten thousand people, sit firmly on the throne of blood teeth, and experience countless fierce battles, right?"
Hearing Sedum's words, Chonglou was silent, just pressed the blood blade on his waist, and Sen Sen sneered.
After a moment of silence, Xue Jian suddenly pointed to the high Beast Emperor Mountain on the opposite side like a monster, and asked strangely, "What are those?"
Sedum followed the sound and saw that on the winding mountain road on the side of the Beast Emperor's mountainside, there were many black spots, just like ants. If you look closely, these black spots seem to be the people of the demon race, one by one, kowtowing to the ground from time to time, and the posture is similar to the popular "long head" on the ice and snow plateau in the west of the human world.
"Those are the people of my Demon Realm Ninja Sect. Chonglou said lightly, "There are also many sects in my world. One of them is the most powerful, called the 'Beast Emperor Sect'. This ninja sect is one of them. ”
"What does this Beast Emperor Sect believe in?" Sedum was a little curious.
"The Beast Emperor Doctrine, it is said that one day, the ancestor god Shennong clan of our clan will descend on the Nine Shadows Land, break the seal of the Six Realms, and lead the descendants of the Ancient Beast Clan to return to the blessed land of the Six Realms. The Demon Venerable said eloquently, "Due to the harsh environment of the Demon Realm, the sect has quite a few believers, including the elites of the eight sects. What you see now is only a branch of the Beast Emperor Sect, which calls itself the Ninja Sect. The people of the Shinobu religion believe that they can call for the return of the ancestral gods by simply praying sincerely. ”
"That's it......" Tang Xue saw that these small black dots were crawling on the rugged and long Beast Emperor Mountain Road, and they were swallowed by the volcanic magma erupting on the side of the road from time to time, so he couldn't bear it in his heart, and sighed, "It's really not easy for this ninja sect to kowtow silently regardless of life and death." ”
"It's not easy? It's nothing. With a wave of Chonglou's hand, a purple ball of light appeared in front of the three of them, shining brightly, like a water mirror. "Since we are about to go to the Ancient Ages, I will let you know a little more about it today. Chonglou took a few steps forward, flicked his big hand on the purple light mirror, and a scene suddenly appeared:
There are two cliffs, one high and one low, facing each other. On the top of the high cliff, there was a huge statue of a bull's head, and on the low cliff, there stood demons, dressed in the same clothes as the demons who had kowtowed and prayed on the mountain road just now. Here, they continued to pray on the ground, and then a scene occurred that shocked Sedum and Tang Xuejian - they suddenly bounced up, and without saying a word, they jumped off the high cliff and jumped into the boiling and splashing hot magma under the cliff!
Seeing this scene, Sedum and Yukimi were both shocked and saddened. However, Chonglou disagreed: "Do these fools think that if they die in front of the statue of Shennong in the Shennong Temple, they can move the ancestral gods?" He turned to Sedum and Xue Jian and asked, "Did you see anything just now?"
"Resolute. It seems foolish, but I dare not judge this persistence and belief. In the face of such an easy sacrifice, Sedum put away his former smiling and angry face, and his face was solemn.
"I'm not asking you this. "You didn't notice that there was a faint flash of green light at the moment when they jumped down the cliff and turned into ashes in the magma. ”
"Green light?" Sedum and Yukimi were puzzled.
"Yes. Before, I saw the miscellaneous fragments of the Evil Sword Immortal and the Lord of the Mist Soul*, and I saw a miserable green glimmer in their hearts. Chonglou's expression became very solemn, "You see, in the heart of my demon world, this heart demon glimmer also shines, even if it is plausible, it may be just a coincidence, and this seat has to be checked." That's why I'm determined to go to the ancients. ”
"Hmm. Sedum nodded. At this time, he and Tang Xuejian both understood a little why this Demon Venerable, who seemed to have no distractions, would accompany them to the ancient world for the resurrection of a "little nightshade". Sedum knew very well in his heart that he didn't pay attention to Lou because those green lights happened before the Demon Realm Statue, so he was careful to phrase them, but a seed called "doubt" had already been planted in the heart of this direct descendant of Shennong.
"It seems that this demon is really a great disaster!"
Originally, Sedum didn't have much direct feeling about what the demons were, although he also hated the two demon demons of the Evil Sword Immortal and the Lord of the Fog Soul, but that was also because they directly committed evil deeds. However, at this moment, seeing that Chonglou really attaches great importance to it, he also began to really pay attention to the matter of demons. He faintly felt that he was afraid that this heart demon calamity would be more serious than the consequences of the collapse of the Lock Demon Tower. Thinking in his heart, Sedum listened to Chonglou again:
"If it is an ordinary creature, whether it is outwitted or outwright, there is a way to deal with it. It's just that this inner demon is attached to the desire of the heart, as long as the heart has a plan, no matter greed or hatred, it will inevitably be taken advantage of, so it is the most difficult. What worries me the most is the most widespread obsession among the creatures of my demon realm......"
"Get out of this evil demon realm and occupy the blessed lands of the other five realms?" Looking around at the desolate scene, Sedum faintly understood Chonglou's thoughts.
"Exactly. Chonglou really said yes. He pointed to the demons on the opposite mountain road: "The ninja disciples of the Beast Emperor Sect are still just resigned to fate. There are some demon nobles in the Beast Emperor Sect, but they have always been ready to move, thinking that they are enterprising, but they are afraid that they will do stupid deeds that go against the way of heaven!"
As he was saying this, suddenly in the purple light magic mirror in front of him, the figure of a black-armored demon general appeared.
"Your Holiness. The demon general with a gloomy face half-knelt down to the demon venerable in front of the Blood Fang Throne, bowed his head and said, "The matter that the Lord ordered his subordinates to inquire about has already been slightly raised. ”
"Say!"
"There are strong demons who plan to open a crack in the well of gods and demons, and flow the evil qi of the demon world into the human world, infect the people, and make them alien people. They intend to use the alien demon as the guide, echoing the half-demon who is already in the human world and has the blood of the demon race, and stirring up trouble in the human world to see if there is a chance to take advantage of it. If it is a coincidence, I am afraid that the army of the Demon Realm that cannot pass through the seal of the Six Realms will have the opportunity to enter the human realm. ”
"Oh?" Chonglou remained silent, "who is so bold?"
"The details still need to be investigated. Preliminary investigation shows that there seems to be the royal family of Yaksha and Rakshasa involved. Venerable, see if we ......" The gloomy and hideous demon general raised his head and looked at Chonglou with an expectant expression.
At this time, Chonglou tightened his eyebrows, pondered for a long time, and said: "I already know, you go down first and continue to investigate." ”
"Yes. There was no effective response, but the Demon in the Mirror did not complain, and immediately disappeared into the darkness.
When the demon will disappear, Chonglou, who has no expression, still has a trace of sadness in his still mighty expression.
"Chonglou, are you okay?" Sedum was very sensitive to the fact that the Demon Venerable was in a bad mood.
"Huh?" was called by Sedum, and Chonglou seemed to come back to his senses. He looked at Sedum: "Do you think, how can this seat be worried?"
"Uh, that's not what I meant......"
"It doesn't matter. Chonglou waved his hand and said in a rare gentle tone, "Heaven is ruthless, and all things are used as dogs. My Demon Venerable is also in the Six Realms of Heavenly Dao. So, while you see omnipotence as a few, it's just that there are fewer things that can't be done, but it's not nothing. ”
"Needless to say. Chonglou nodded at the two of them, "There are all causes, and all causes must be effects." The two of them know the general situation of the demon world, so they go back to ancient times and explore the reasons for today's situation. By the way, I also resurrected your little nightshade girl, which can be regarded as a love of incense for the Aoi Feather Heavenly Witch. ”
"Two," was about to make the move, Chonglou solemnly instructed, "going back to the ancient journey is to push back from back to front." It's just that the strong pressure and power caused by such a retrograde movement are by no means something that the two of them can bear. I will use the Chiyou secret method to carry out the order of the ancient past that we saw on the way, so that you will not let your spirit collapse - remember, it is precisely because you and I are related to the ancient characters that we can use the creation aura and the chaos nebula to return to the ancients; ”
"Huh?" Sedum had a headache at the mention of these things that reversed time and space, "Then will our words and deeds affect the events at that time?"
"No, it won't. If you 'Sedum' let 'Fei Peng' do something, it means that it will happen at that time, and it will not affect the outcome of the day with you or not. You don't need to worry too much, you just need to help me carefully understand the clues, whether there are clues to the demons, and I should help you get the juice of the firstborn fruit stalk of the Aoi Yu Heavenly Witch and resurrect the nightshade. ”
"Okay!" Sedum was a little excited at this time. It's no wonder that seeing that he is about to go through the magnificent, fantastic and bizarre era of the ancient gods, and see the origin of his past life, how can Sedum, a young man from Yuzhou, not be excited?
