Chapter 350 The number of evil tribulations (13)
Ever since An Jing came to Northern Xinjiang, he had no intention of hiding his identity.
The premise is that he must appear in the sight of 'everyone' and not be blocked by Dachen officials or warriors alone.
Facing Xu Tai's respectful and bachelor inquiry, An Jing chose to tell the other party directly his identity and purpose, and then ignored the other party's shock and the whispers of the crowd, and continued to observe the monster in his hand.
The original body of this monster should be a deer.
But the deer's facial features, or rather, the area with the brain as its core, disappeared, turning into an abyss that collapsed inward and seemed to lead directly to another time and space.
And its originally gray-yellow fur also faded, turning into an indescribable, pale and slightly dirty look.
"This monster is a little different from us back then. The monsters back then were pure darkness, swallowing everything into darkness.
Fu Xie commented on the monster and explained its details to An Jing: "Well... no, it shouldn't be considered pitch black, but it is an indescribable color, a color that infects everything, but our perception of black is That color, so it’s black.”
"This monster is the most common 'body-corrupting demon'. It mostly appears in environments with strong demonic aura, and creatures are naturally corroded. The abyss on its head leads directly to the underworld, and it is also its body, which destroyed this abyss. The monster will perish."
"Abyss Cave is the true body?"
An Jing was a little curious. He did see the abyss on the heads of these monsters gradually disappearing, and finally turned into the heads of ordinary deer: "It's strange, what is the principle of this?"
Fu Xie thought about it and found that he still remembered this part of the memory, so he said confidently: "The demon is not a real creature, but a... well, how should I put it? An unnatural phenomenon."
"You should also know that in ancient times, demons came to the world, and endless inner demons flowed across the world, cutting off the inheritance at that time."
"Most of the demons at that time were intangible, just a wisp of empty thoughts, a weird consonance. It was not stable and could not exist alone in the world, but it could be consistent with people's thoughts, transform people's hearts, and make people feel happy. Completely transformed into another personality, like a different person.”
"This is the original form of the demons, that is, the first batch of great demons [Supreme Heart Demons]."
"At that time, we didn't discover the existence of the demon at all. There were frequent killings and catastrophes among the major sects. While we were fighting each other, we thought it was the rotation of cause and effect, and another round of catastrophe was coming."
"It wasn't until later that the strongest men of each sect discovered that the war situation in the Ten Continents was somewhat out of control, and more and more people were falling into evil ways and becoming more and more crazy. It was impossible to explain it by the flow of cause and effect, and the shadow of the inner demon was discovered."
When he said this, Fu Xie's tone was very solemn: "That period was the most terrifying. No one knew who had fallen, nor why they had fallen, nor even the specific way in which the demon existed."
"It wasn't until a powerful Buddhist monk sacrificed his body and reincarnated with the soul of a cultivator who had been corrupted by the demon that he discovered the existence of the inner demon."
"They have completely fused their original souls, or they have emptied them out, and have given birth to a heart demon seed. Once this heart demon seed matures, it will open up the mysterious things in the divine sea of the Purple Mansion and the distant infinite space. Through the passage, the power of the demon comes from the depths of Taixu."
"And if the carrier of the inner demon seed dies - whether it is killed or dies naturally, it will fall into the underworld, and then a passage will be opened there, which is the 'Abyss Cave'. The power on the other side of the boundless Taixu will They will gather together in the underworld and gather terrifying power."
"Because of the killing calamity, too many inner demon seeds took root and sprouted in the Netherworld... When we found out, it was too late."
"So that's it..." An Jing thought thoughtfully: "If we say that one side of the world corresponds to the human body, then the human body is the real world, and the human soul is the ghost world. The demon first erodes the soul of the native creature, and then uses the soul to The way of circulation invades the underworld, and then controls the entire body, distorting the way of heaven - this can even be regarded as the inner demon of the world! "
"What about the Immortal Heaven?" An Jing asked enthusiastically: "What does it correspond to?" "It corresponds to the true spirit." Fu Xie praised: "Not bad! An Jing, you are really perceptive, and you saw through the devil at once. The mode of action and the essence of the three realms!”
"But at that time, we did not have any information. When we discovered the changes in the Netherworld, the demonic energy had already spread throughout the world along the cycle of the Netherworld and the real world, and the minds of the creatures that were invaded and transformed by the demonic energy of the Netherworld Where the hub is, there will be an 'Abyss Cave', which is connected to the [Infinite Abyss] of the Netherworld and draws strength from it."
"The so-called demon body is this 'cave' and this 'channel'. It's useless to destroy its body with swords. You can only use pure vitality, sharp divine will, or targeted spells. Only by cutting off this passage can we kill it."
"The art of swordsmanship flourished in that era, because the sword's intention is to destroy everything, and the devil's abyss is no exception. It can be understood very early, so that ordinary practitioners can also kill monsters."
Fu Xie recalled the ancient times with a faint tone: "My sword wielders and many immortal gods, under the leadership of the Taoist Master at that time, transformed the entire Huaixu Tianhe Moat, completely cutting off the 'Supreme Inner Demon' has arrived, but the 'Infinite Abyss' of the Nether World has taken shape, and the demons can still emerge from it, so they can only be sealed."
"After that, after that..."
Fuxie is stuck. Apparently, He forgot this part.
——No, Fuxie, which era are you from or are you a sword?
When he heard this, An Jing was a little confused - because Fu Xie had said before that in his era, the Taoist court had collapsed.
But according to what Fu Xie just said, when his sword wielder is moving, is there still a Taoist master in the world?
But it’s not that it can’t be explained...because the Fuxie who just spoke is the ‘Fuxie Sword Spirit’. He most likely has many sword holders.
Perhaps, the history of the 'Fuxie Sword' is longer than imagined. Its first sword holder came from the era of Taoting, and the subsequent 'Fuxie Sword Immortal', the figure I saw from the back, was born in the Taoting era. The years after the collapse.
But having said that...
An Jing fell into deep thought. He keenly discovered the terrible truth hidden in Fu Xie's words: "How many times did Huaixu have a demonic calamity?"
The oldest demonic calamity [Supreme Heart Demonic Catastrophe] broke out in the era when Dao Sect still existed. At that time, countless great monks fell, and the entire spiritual world launched a war that swept the world, causing extremely serious damage.
Although it survived this calamity, the Daozong Taoting probably collapsed due to the sequelae of this calamity, just like the Tianyuan world.
After that, several more demonic tribulations must have broken out in the Huaixu Realm.
No. This calamity may not even only occur in one realm.
The Tianyuan world, other worlds, and the worlds where the Fuxie fragments are located may all have experienced demonic catastrophes.
The most recent demonic catastrophe was the one that led to the complete demise of the spiritual root refining method. It destroyed the old methods of immortals and gods, and created a new formation, martial arts, and destiny path.
Since then, there seemed to be no more demonic tribulations.
But even so, the martial arts era is not safe and sound. It has also gone through five eras... It has been such a long time that historical records have become untrustworthy.
Although Fu Xie still remembered a little bit, what he remembered was only fragments, and he couldn't determine the specific situation.
