Chapter 676: Heart-Burning Conspiracy
The waning moon is like a bow, and there are still stars hanging in the sky before dawn.
Bailian was walking along the palace road, holding a full-moon wine gourd and jade beads against it, facing the moonlight, drinking wine alone.
Since practicing in Chaling for the past half month, the full moon wine gourd, which has bottomed out, has now collected less than half of the moonlight wine, lingering like mist and stars in the small sapphire-colored gourd.
The Full Moon Wine Gourd is a top-grade fairy weapon produced by heaven and earth. Although it is not an offensive fairy weapon, it is a self-generated spiritual treasure that can charm spirits and nourish life.
Drinking a mouthful of moonlight wine brewed from this gourd can be compared to the three months of ordinary monks practicing on Lingshan Mountain in the blessed land.
Bailian does not belong to the human race, nor does he specialize in spiritual power. Because of the yin and yang fish in his body, he is an extremely rare body with both spiritual and demonic cultivation.
As a corpse demon, the spiritual power nodes in his body that should have been swallowed up and covered by black demonic energy are like ordinary humans, and ten spiritual power nodes have been opened up.
It is precisely because of the existence of the spiritual power node that he can absorb the spiritual power between heaven and earth and practice human Taoism.
But he is not a real human being after all. He is a corpse demon born from eating blood. The dark blood energy hidden in his body is in conflict with the spiritual power of heaven and earth.
Balian is different from ordinary demons. Even in this vast world of demons, the cultivation and growth of demons are inseparable from their spiritual power.
Monsters and humans have one thing in common, that is ‘life’.
The corpse demon is a dead person, and the blood and energy in the body cannot coexist with spiritual power, just like the sun and the moon cannot shine together.
For the corpse demon, if the body does not absorb the spiritual power required by human demons, the power of dark blood in the body will become extremely sensitive and violent, almost driving it crazy. It will kill and expel the spiritual power that does not come from the same source.
Bailian is a rare alternative among spirit demons. His body is not only able to coexist with spiritual power and blood, but also allows the two forces on both sides to not interfere with and exclude each other.
This seems simple and easy, but who knows how dangerous it is for two forces with opposite attributes to coexist in one body.
Since his rebirth, Balian seems to be able to switch between these two completely different forces with ease. However, if there is not a little bit left, the balance between spiritual power and dark blood power will be critical. Once the point is broken, there are only two possibilities.
Darkness devours light, or light devours darkness.
No matter which ending it is, it is definitely not a good ending for Balian.
Sister Si Li once told him that he was different from other corpse demons because he was not assimilated into a corpse demon in a normal and traditional way.
Although the corpse demon is deceased, its obsession persists after death, and it is unwilling to be dispersed and goes back to reincarnation, relying on a powerful resentment to nourish its soul.
Such a soul is a ghost. After collecting enough resentment, it can turn into a supernatural being, that is, a corpse demon.
Bailian was different. He had no obsession or resentment after his death. Even his soul was incomplete and he had no qualifications or conditions to become a corpse demon.
If the generals had not forcibly given him the gift of blood descent and planted the Yin and Yang Tao fish, there would be no way for him to wake up as a corpse demon.
Therefore, it is precisely because of the absolutely balanced yin and yang forces of life and death that are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other in the body, that made Si Chen what he is today.
There is no way for him to be completely resurrected, nor can he become a complete corpse demon.
Once the internal balance is broken and one side of light and darkness disappears, it means that the road between night and dawn no longer exists, and Si Chen can only walk this road alone. It will be destroyed.
Bailian has always been able to control this speed carefully and perfectly.
Until the outbreak of the Burning Heart Fruit.
A wisp of black blood faintly overflowed from the palm of the hand, slowly moving towards the arm, and the three spiritual power nodes between the arms also became pitch black as the black energy was swallowed up. .
Human spiritual power nodes are either shining brightly when they are lit, or as dark as stone when they are blocked. They will never be as dark as they are now.
He tentatively used the spiritual power in his body to swim through the three black spiritual power nodes. The pure spiritual power instantly passed through those nodes and turned into a kind of blood that was neither spiritual power nor dark blood. The third existence of power.
The spiritual power stained by black is like a stubborn disease that is difficult to remove, occupying and destroying the order and function of the body.
Bailian drank all the moonshine wine in the flask, and then suppressed the spread of the black energy. He forced the black energy between his arms back into his palms, and his spiritual power nodes returned to white.
Bailian looked at the extremely thin blood line in his palm. This was a huge hidden danger after all. Moonshine wine was extremely difficult to collect, and it only took him half a month to collect this much.
If the black energy breaks out and spreads next time, and the moonlight wine has no time to brew, what will he do?
In order to solve this problem, Balian must first know why he has something as strange as the Burning Heart Fruit in his body.
If calculated based on his age, his bone age during his lifetime was only sixteen, and his cultivation level was only at the mediocre level of seeking Taoism. This kind of cultivation level is easily found in some third-rate immortal cultivation sects.
Who would use such a precious and hard-to-find forbidden fruit from the devil world on a young man with low cultivation like him?
From a cultivation point of view, he is far from worthy of the person behind him spending so much money. From this point of view, the only way to check is from his identity.
While thinking about it, Bai Lian was walking through a long corridor in the deep palace. At this time, the sky was not yet clear and the palace servants who were sweeping the palace could not be seen yet.
But Bailian saw a familiar figure behind a palace pillar.
Erhe buried his heart.
A new mask was put on his face, and the decapitation scar on his neck had also been restored to its original state. He wore a purple robe and a belt, and his appearance was noble and mysterious.
A particularly slender figure stood in a corner of the shadows, looking as if he was intentionally waiting to meet him again.
Bailian stopped, his eyes and expression unchanged: "Lord Buried Heart."
Burned Heart walked out of the shadows, the purple jade swaying around his waist, and the jade was engraved with vivid orchid dark patterns, look at His taste is actually somewhat hidden. Elegant and interesting, his voice is warm and mellow, the unique magnetic voice of a mature man: "Lord Si Chen, can you talk to me?" "Lord Buried Heart, what do you want me to teach you?" Balian calmly put away his palms. Behind him, his expression was calm.
A faint chuckle came from under the skull mask. This time, he did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "My lord and your Majesty's wedding is approaching, I just want to do it with good intentions. Reminder 1 My lord, if you want to live in this world for a long time, don't be deceived by the immediate benefits and mistake disaster for a bright future."
Bailian said: "What exactly do you want to say? ”
The heart-wrenching laughter gradually subsided, and a pair of pupils under the mask flashed inconspicuously: "Your Majesty is definitely not a kind person. People who get too close to her will generally not end well."< br>
A very common alienation plot...
Bailian remained unmoved and raised his eyes slightly: "Master Burial Heart's concern comes at the right time."
< br>Bury the heart together Ignoring the sarcasm in Balian's words, he was very honest: "Everyone in the demon world has selfish motives. I do not deny that I have been deeply hostile to you, Lord Si Chen, from the beginning. After all, you and I are not Those who hold the same position each have their own positions and duties, and at the moment, the current situation creates a situation, and I think Lord Si Chen might as well cooperate with me."
The purpose of the visit is not concealed.
Balian smiled and said: "It's good to enjoy the shade under the green shade tree. If I don't rely on a towering tree like His Majesty the Demon Lord, why should I rely on your worthless master above?"
< br>The master I served was ridiculed mercilessly and sharply, but I was not angry at all, but smiled lightly. He spoke out and said: "Master Si Chen, do you think that your majesty's big tree can stand for a long time? You may not know that maybe this big tree with infinite scenery on the surface has long been rotten and deep-rooted. It only needs a gust of east wind to turn it around." But the root rises and takes its place!”
Bailian Mou! The light moved slightly, and the fingertips hidden behind him gently rubbed the palm of his hand. He smiled calmly on his face and said, "It seems that Lord Zangxin knows a lot of things."
Zangxin smile Said: "If Lord Si Chen is willing to stand on our side, I am willing to share the many things I know I’ll share it with you, sir.”
Bailian would not let him go away with nothing so easily. He couldn’t help but take two steps forward and glanced at him indifferently. : "Then we have to see how much sincerity Mr. Burial Heart has in his hands."
Balian controlled his expression perfectly. He was neither eager nor enthusiastic, but he also subtly expressed a hint of curiosity.
And this subtle and appropriate performance is exactly what Zangxin expected. The eyes hidden under the shadow of the mask were like a hunter sizing up his prey, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips. .
It was just as he suspected.
This young man seems to be a docile sheep, but in fact he is a rebellious wolf. The wild spirit in his heart makes him willing to become a woman's male plaything.
At the Jun return banquet, Burian Xin could tell that Bai Lian was resistant and tired of the marriage. His Majesty the Demon King was such an overbearing and domineering character, and his wishes were probably in vain in front of her. like water off a duck's back.
In the past few days, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the demon king has been acting arbitrarily in setting the wedding date, which implies a forced marriage.
For this reason, he may have developed some resentment towards His Majesty the Demon Lord.
When Zang Xin raised his eyes, the appraising smile in his eyes turned into pity and sympathy: "I heard that after the meeting at night, His Majesty knocked out Lord Si Chen and carried him all the way back to the Hades Palace. At that time, His face was very scary, Si Chenda I’ve been in the Hades Palace for two whole days, I’m afraid it’s not going to be easy, right?”
The Demon Lord carried him back to the palace, with blood and snow floating all the way, and the murderous intent shrouding the palace. The scene really looked like blood. A female ghost who came out of hell.
Zang Xin didn’t even expect that after only two days of guarding, he would actually come out of the palace safely.
There was really no need to pretend this time. Bai Lian's face really darkened. After Zang Xin mentioned this, the burns on his body began to hurt faintly again. His face turned cold and he said coldly: "Zang Xin said Mr. Xin has too many things to worry about.”
Jian Baili. The hatred in An's eyes did not seem to be fake. She laughed and patted his shoulder to show her intimacy. However, there was a vicious murderous intention in her eyes: "If Sir Si Chen is in need, I am willing to do my best to help you." Kill her."
Bailian sneered, as if disdainfully: "Master Burial Heart had this idea two days ago, but he almost lost his head and lost an important chess piece like Zhi Yuyan. Where does he have the courage to say such a thing now?"
Zang Xin said meaningfully: "Foreign knives can never kill someone. Just as I said just now, all it takes is a gust of east wind to knock her down. Doesn’t Lord Si Chen know that your majesty’s days are numbered?”
Bailian’s eyes flashed. The strange light looked at him sideways: "What do you mean?"
Zhan Xin said: "Sir Si Chen must have heard about it a long time ago. There is a forbidden fruit, Burning Heart, hidden in the demon world."
Bailian's eyes suddenly narrowed, and the palms behind his back slowly clenched into fists. The superior pretended to be puzzled: "The Burning Heart Fruit?"
"Yes, it is the Burning Heart Fruit." Zhanxin smiled and said: "Throughout the ages, if you want to inherit the position of the Demon Lord, you must first Only by taking this Heart-Burning Fruit and experiencing its misfortune can you become a king. The pain of the Heart-Burning Fruit is definitely not something ordinary people can bear. Even the old devil is only 70,000 years old. That year, the devil's heart had reached a certain level before he dared to take it."
Bailian's eyebrows were depressed. If he remembered correctly, the devil lord A'luo was only two thousand years old now.
He became the youngest demon king in history before he was even ten thousand years old.
A'luo was dismembered and sealed more than a thousand years ago. At that time, she had already become a demon and was less than a thousand years old.
Less than a thousand years old, took the Burning Heart Fruit...
Bailian's eyes were dark, and he quietly stared at the mask on Burial Heart's face.
Burning Heart smiled enigmatically and said, "Lord Si Chen must have guessed that the Burning Heart Fruit specializes in eating people's minds. If you are not a powerful mind cultivator, you will not be able to resist this heart-burning disaster. , Your Majesty is not like the old devil now. With such a strong demonic heart, her forced submission at such a young age was tantamount to sacrificing her life in exchange for the throne."
Bailian said: "But at that time. She has no choice.”
"No." Zhan Xin shook his head and said, "Sir Si Chen, if you think that Your Majesty was forced to eat this fruit by the old devil after the war between immortals and demons, you are really wrong. In fact, at the beginning, the old devil When he planned to force her to take the Burning Heart Fruit and ascend to the throne to protect Young Lord Milu from disaster, he found that he did not need to force her at all. Your Majesty did not know when, The breath of the Burning Heart Fruit has long been left in her body."
Zang Xin said in a deep voice, "This means that she actually ate the Burning Heart when she was younger and still abandoned the demon. As a result, the old devil didn’t know when she started coveting this throne, but at that time, the old devil and I already knew that she used it to become Mi Lu Shaojun’s sacrifice is the most suitable, because no demon can eat the Burning Heart Fruit at such an age and survive in the end without going crazy.”
“Your Majesty’s heart is too big. His majesty is so cruel that he can hurt himself completely."
" Sir Si Chen must have noticed it, Your Majesty, she has always been abnormal.”
I originally wanted to continue to update today, but I stayed up too late yesterday and had a splitting headache, and I couldn’t hold on any longer. I'd better update it tomorrow. I don't have the energy to check for typos. Beibei will get up and check it tomorrow morning, but I can't bear it anymore.
