Chapter 98 Soul Calling
The moment the Lord of the Holy Realm, Sheng Wuxin, quietly stepped into the Xuantian Sect, his heart was filled with complex emotions. Sheng Wuxin looked at Sikong Zhen who was guarding the Demon Locking Tower. In his mouth, a secret that had been laid out for many years was about to be revealed.
The core of this secret is Shi Ling, who is imprisoned deep in Siguo Cliff of the Xuantian Sect.
Shi Ling was once a chess piece carefully placed in the dark abyss by the Lord of the Holy Realm. Now, this chess piece has suffered a lot and been led from the darkness to the light.
The Lord of the Holy Realm, Sheng Wuxin, remembers that many years ago, when a group of young disciples participated in the Holy Realm trials, only the weak Shi Ling could always survive in the face of adversity.
At that time, when they chose Shi Ling as the saint of the Holy Realm, they thought that Shi Ling was undoubtedly a good chess piece.
Shi Ling is a woman with coexistence of strength and softness. She has been lurking in the enemy camp for many years, using her extraordinary resourcefulness to convey vital information to the Holy Realm, and has become the sharpest weapon in the Holy Realm's hands. Invisible blade.
However, at this time, Shi Ling left the abyss as an opposite villain, and the Lord of the Holy Realm felt an unnoticeable excitement in his heart. Because he knew that Shi Ling's behavior also indicated an opportunity invisibly, like a bolt of lightning that broke through the long-standing peace, and also heralded the prelude to the fall of the side knife that had been polished for a long time.
The opportunity they had been waiting for to wipe out all the undercurrents was about to come.
At the same time, the secret forces left behind by Shi Ling, through secret contact with Director Yun, the Lord of the Holy Realm obtained a shocking piece of information: Ren Yiqiu, this person who is wandering on the edge of good and evil The master who fled actually had the ambition to seize the physical body of Director Yun in order to achieve immortality.
This news was like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, causing waves. The Lord of the Holy Realm knows very well that if Ren Yiqiu succeeds, it will not only mean that Director Yun, a rare genius disciple, will be lost forever, but it may also allow the dark forces to take this opportunity to grow.
Ren Yiqiu is not a good person. If he succeeds in resurrecting his body after reaching the end of his road, he will definitely take the opportunity to set off a new evil trend in the world of immortality and overturn the balance of the entire Kyushu.
At this moment, the Lord of the Holy Realm realized that the time had come to close the net. They must take action to smash all underground businesses and stop Ren Yiqiu's conspiracy.
As a result, the Lord of the Holy Land began to plan carefully to mobilize the hidden power in the Holy Land.
Sheng Wuxin secretly contacted several hidden experts, such as the owner of Yaowang Valley, such as Tianxiang Pavilion... Although these experts usually do not ask about Kyushu affairs, they can always play a huge role at critical moments. They will be a key asset in this operation.
At the same time, the Lord of the Holy Realm came in person to meet with Sikong Zhen, a powerful ally he had never met before. He believed that the Xuantian Sect and Jianzhong were, after all, very helpful in preparing to give the enemy a fatal blow at the most critical moment. .
The Lord of the Holy Realm also used his knowledge of the secrets of Kyushu to start laying a dragnet and set up corresponding countermeasures for the next possible action of Ren Yiqiu and their associates.
Sikong Zhen will definitely agree to Sheng Wuxin, but before he lets go, he dejectedly makes a request, leaving his apprentice Si Changyun alive.
The rescue of Director Yun requires a more elaborate plan.
So, before launching this war, Holy Realm promised to send out its most elite disciples, disguised as forces from all parties, to find the best opportunity for Battalion Director Yun. However, they not only have to face heavy guards from all underground forces, but also guard against possible traitors. It is conceivable that the task is difficult.
Moreover, after the Lord of the Holy Realm learned that Director Yun had a "dream floating life", the Lord of the Holy Realm did not have any hope, and even had murderous intentions for a moment.
However, the Lord of the Holy Realm hid very well, and he also had in-depth exchanges with Sikong Zhen on this series of deployments.
Finally, the Lord of the Holy Realm requested that his superior Kong Zhen find a way so that Director Yun could remain calm in the face of the crisis of seizing the body, and use his own wisdom and strength to disintegrate Ren Yiqiu's plan from the inside. conspiracy.
Sikong Zhen stood there with his back straight, watching the Lord of the Holy Land leave. He was like a pine and cypress still standing in the frost and snow. He looked down at the clouds and mist below him, and he was filled with thoughts. As a strong man, Sikong Zhen was naturally keenly aware of the other party's changing emotions. He hoped that the other party would be merciful, and he was also a disciple who believed in him.
But Sikong Zhen really couldn't bear to be too harsh on Director Yun. He was afraid that this disciple would rather be broken into pieces than destroyed.
Sikong Zhen went to Si Guo Ya again.
The wind was raging in Si Guo Ya, making bursts of wailing, rolling up pieces of dead leaves and dust, adding a bit more chaos to the already dim vision.
Sikong Zhen met Shi Ling. Shi Ling looked at him with deliberate intimacy, and her face was indifferent and calm. "Master."
"I know you are innocent." After all, Sikong Zhen watched Shi Ling grow up. Hearing the child's unfamiliar tone, Sikong Zhen's eyebrows drew a line. It's so painful that Shi Ling carried the burden alone in those years, but they did nothing to help her, and in the end they made her endure the pain and rumors.
But Sikong Zhen can only do this, because this is the best protective color for Shi Ling.
When Sikong Zhen left, he looked at the dark sky in the distance. He believed, "Evil will never prevail against good."
Shi Ling watched the back of Sikong Zhen, a master of the generation, stumbling as he left, as if Like an ordinary old man, she fell into a trance. Looking at the lonely dust falling, she began to recall her days in the Xuantian Sect bit by bit.
She said that she likes to be popular, and it's true.
She said that she longed for power, and it was true.
Shi Ling lowered her eyebrows.
She didn't dare to confess, and she couldn't confess.
After she was selected by the Holy Sword as a saint, and after coming into contact with those abyss, she was not so firmly on the side of justice at first. She admitted that she had sunk.
…………
The demon king’s weakness is like a sudden cold wind, blowing away the calm on the surface and attracting countless ambitious demons ready to move.
A storm is brewing quietly. In this power struggle, the name Xi Yan, after a series of marketing strategies by righteous people, suddenly jumped into the eyes of all demons like a new star.
Xi Yan, a young demon who seems to have a tragic life experience and the blood of the Demon King, helps him to replace the Demon King. Not only is it justifiable, but it is also very easy to control.
When Xi Yan and Ni Hua just arrived in the demon world and had not had time to surrender to the demon, Xi Yan received the news from the demons through secret channels. He was both surprised and amused. .
Xi Yan is no stranger to power struggles. Each of these great demons is a well-known strong man in the demon world. Their proposal is straightforward and explicit - help him ascend to the position of demon king, but at a price , seems to want him to become a pawn in their hands, an obedient puppet.
"Assume the position as a puppet? Sounds good." An imperceptible sneer appeared at the corner of Xi Yan's lips. He knew in his heart that this was a dangerous game, and if he was not careful, he would be doomed. However, in his memory, "he" had never tried to take this path last time in his life, and he suddenly felt that it would be good to take a different path from "him". Puppet? It's just a matter of strength. Who knows who will be able to control the string in the end.
Just as Xi Yan was weighing the forces of all parties and formulating his own plan, an even more unexpected news was like a bolt of lightning, piercing his original thoughts.
This news came from an unexpected source - an old Taoist who was supposed to be imprisoned in the deepest cell of the demon world.
This old Taoist is said to have been a legend in the demon world. Of course, what he knows better is that he is the inheritor of the Sword Tomb. I heard that the old Taoist was recently imprisoned for violating the Demon King's taboo, but for some unknown reason, the old Taoist actually conveyed an astonishing proposal to him through secret channels.
The words of the old Taoist were concise and direct: "Xi Yan, I see that you have excellent talents and amazing bones, which are not something that can be found in a pool. I am willing to teach you all my cultivation skills to help you climb the demon The position of king will achieve great things."
This news undoubtedly adds a bit of unpredictability to Xi Yan's plan.
The appearance of the old Taoist was like an unknown chess piece falling on the chessboard, breaking the original balance.
Xi Yan's heart was filled with ups and downs. The old Taoist's proposal undoubtedly... represented the righteous attitude.
Whether it is true or not, it means that he is likely to receive a powerful boost that surpasses all current competitors.
Xi Yan did not reply to either party immediately, but chose silence and deep thought.
"Junior brother, it's time for you to return to the demon world." Nihua gently swept his communication jade and said softly, her voice was gentle but with a determination that could not be ignored.
Obviously, compared to the demon world, the demon world at this time is the place where he can show his talents.
The moonlight shines through the distorted sky of the demon world and shines mottledly on the two of them, and the shadows on the ground are stretched infinitely.
"But this is the devil's world." Xi Yan knew that she was going to drive him away, and his heart suddenly froze. He already had a care in his heart, and the warm look on his face suddenly turned cold.
Nihua was not moved by Xi Yan's insistence, "Yeah."
She responded softly.
Xi Yan looked at Ni Hua intently, and for some reason, his heartbeat suddenly trembled.
Xi Yan suddenly remembered for a moment the "him" who lived in his memory. That "him" seemed to have always regarded his senior sister as a canary. He thought that with the light of swords and shadows behind his senior sister, Senior sister will not experience any hardships, but "he" always has so many last resorts, and ultimately hurts senior sister again and again, causing senior sister to fall into chaos again and again.
So, after hesitating for a long time, he carefully let go of his senior sister's hand.
His eyes crossed the void and fell on the senior sister. She had a very clean and pure aura, but there was no good person here.
Xi Yan stood there quietly. He watched the senior sister leave without hesitation. He stood there silently for a long time.
Xi Yan seriously thought that since the senior sister didn't like it, then he could become her shadow.
Nihua stepped into the dark abyss. Under the dark red sky unique to the devil world, green lightning flashed across the sky from time to time, reflecting distorted figures. Demonic energy lingered, as if every wisp of air contained the power of destruction and corruption.
Being in the devil world and leaving the asylum, Nihua recalled her experiences from childhood to adulthood. Facing this sudden opportunity and crisis, she became more determined in her inner thoughts - what she wanted to do was to break the shackles , rather than becoming a new yoke.
Ni Hua thought of the Demon Realm, which had been silent for a long time after the great purges of the Immortal Realm and the Demon Realm. Those mysteries that she had not yet solved forced her to go deep into the Shura Field in the tiger's den.
She knew that the plot she was going through now might have been experienced by someone in the previous life, and that person might be Xi Yan, or it might be someone else.
When he first set foot in the demon world and came to the territory of the female devil, the surrounding scene was far more desolate and terrifying than Nihua imagined.
Ni Hua's goal is to approach and ultimately overthrow the legendary female demon Situ Qianxun, one of the "Four Great Demon Lords", an existence that once made the entire world of immortals and demons tremble.
Situ Qianxun possesses the terrifying power of controlling souls. Her soul-summoning flag is said to be able to summon the souls of the dead under the Nine Netherworld, which is equivalent to possessing Yin soldiers and ghosts, turning them into an undead army under the demon king. , is the key to consolidating his hegemony in the demon world, which is frightening.
However, with Ni Hua's strength, she could not directly contact the female devil. Based on the information from her previous life, Ni Hua began to secretly favor the demons from all sides. At the same time, she secretly contacted those demons. The big demons who have different opinions try to find a way out of the complicated situation.
Nihua understands that real power is not given, but must be fought for and protected by oneself.
In the process, Nihua gradually revealed her wisdom and courage. Not only did she skillfully deal with various forces, she also secretly practiced forbidden magic in the devil world, and her strength increased rapidly.
Ni Hua took refuge in one of the powerful demons, and her days in the demon world improved slightly. However, fate is always so unpredictable, and Ni Hua unexpectedly reunites with Chen Yuan, who abandoned her. Nihua weighed the pros and cons on the spot and found that using old feelings was a shortcut for her to gain a foothold in this dangerous place.
When they met, Nihua naturally did not forget to set up her infatuated persona and pretended to come all the way to join Chen Yuan. However, she did not take the initiative, but waited for the other party to come to her door.
Under the dead banyan tree where Xi Yan was leaning, he watched darkly as the two of them passed each other, and watched as Chen Yuan calmly left his breath in Nihua's place.
At first, Chen Yuan heard the news that Ni Hua had come to the Demon Realm, and did not believe that Ni Hua came just for herself, and was wary of her. After all, the distance between the world of immortality and the Demon Realm is not only In terms of space, it is also a gap in the way of cultivation and mentality.
But as time passed, Ni Hua cleverly took advantage of her kindness to him, allowing Chen Yuan to inadvertently open the door to a deeper level of the devil world for her. As a result, Nihua came into contact with more information about the Four Demon Lords.
The first time Ni Hua saw this legendary soul-calling flag was during the internal fighting of the Demon Sect.
Her inner shock was indescribable.
The soul-calling flag was not as ferocious and terrifying as she imagined. Instead, it exuded a strange beauty under the dim light, as if it were a mysterious bridge connecting the worlds of life and death, or opening up an endless abyss. key.
