Chapter 886: The Great Demon King's Desire to Save the World
"Haha, you don't have to be so nervous. I won't take your distraction to vent your anger." Seeing that Ye Zan replied unnaturally, the former leader couldn't help laughing, and then said indifferently: "More What's more, for tens of thousands of years, the old man has been trapped here alone, and it is rare to see someone who can talk, so how can he be willing to do something to you!"
Hearing the other party's words, Ye Zan wiped a sweat in his heart, obviously in the other party's eyes, he was just an existence to relieve boredom. Although this feeling is not very good, it at least means that his distraction is still safe for the time being. If he makes the other party happy, maybe he still has a chance to leave this place unscathed.
"Senior, there is nothing in this place of nothingness. I don't know how senior... survived for tens of thousands of years?" After Ye Zan calmed down, he first asked a question in his heart.
You know, if this is an ordinary forbidden zone, with the lifespan that the method Xiangjing can have, it is still possible to live for tens of thousands of years. After all, although ascetics do not rely much on eating and drinking, they still need a certain amount of "nutrition" to maintain their physical immortality. Otherwise, once the physical body cannot be maintained and decays, the remaining primordial spirit and dharma will become rootless duckweed.
However, this is a place of nothingness, not to mention the usual food and drink, there is not even spiritual energy and air to breathe. In such an environment, no matter what kind of person they are, they cannot obtain any supplements from the outside world, and can only consume their own mana to maintain the vitality of the physical body.
However, a person's magic power is limited after all, not to mention that the leader was only in the realm of Faxiang at the beginning, so what if he was in the realm of reaching heaven. When Ye Zan cleaned up Tongtian Peak, he was as powerful as Tongtian Supreme, and he couldn't last thousands of years in Tongtian Peak's formation. So, how did this leader persist for tens of thousands of years until Ye Zan's arrival?
"Oh, the old man just used the technique of feigning death. You have already passed tens of thousands of years, but the old man is only equivalent to hundreds of years." The former leader replied casually, but did not He didn't intend to talk to Ye Zan in detail, and immediately urged: "You don't have to talk about him, the old man is very curious now, how the old man is arranged outside now."
Feign death?
Although the other party didn't elaborate, Ye Zan understood the reason why the other party could live for so long after hearing this and combined with the following sentence. To put it bluntly, the other party's so-called suspended animation technique should be like the tortoise's breath that people often say, or like some animals hibernating, completely adjusting themselves to a state of minimal consumption.
For example, the heartbeat of an ordinary person may be sixty or seventy beats a minute. Then, if it becomes six or seven times a minute, it is equivalent to extending the time ten times. Although it is not accurate to say this, it is probably what it means, so the former leader said that he only spent hundreds of years.
With the mana of a Dharma Prime Minister, without external supplies,
There is no problem in maintaining the immortality of the physical body for hundreds of years. Although, in that state, the other party may lose most of their reactions to the outside world, but there is no other danger in this void.
Of course, Ye Zan's purpose of changing the subject was obviously unsuccessful, and the other party was still asking for the outside world's opinion.
"This..." Ye Zan hesitated for a moment, but he thought that he was just distracted, and he was not in a panic when he saw the other party's appearance, so he said: "The younger generation is indeed a few elders who listened to the Moyi religion. Some things about seniors. They said that seniors are the last leader of the Moyi religion..."
Ye Zan had just finished speaking, when the former leader suddenly interrupted and asked curiously, "You said that this old man is the last leader of Moyi Sect?"
After all, the Moyi religion was changed to the current "collegiate elders" system after the former leader was driven into nothingness. Therefore, the former leader didn't know that it was reasonable for his behavior to cause such a big change in the Moyi religion.
Ye Zan paused, and after listening to the other party's inquiry, he nodded and said: "Yes, according to them, what the seniors did back then made them feel that one person is in charge, which is not good for the Moyi religion or the entire realm. A good thing. Therefore, since then, the Moyi religion has never reappointed a leader, and all matters must be decided by the elders."
"Hehe, this really seems to be their way!" The former leader's face suddenly showed a clear expression when he heard this, and he shook his head with some emotion, and then asked: "So, you I should have told you, what did the old man do back then?"
"Yes!" Ye Zan nodded.
"Then let's continue and listen!" The former leader said with great interest.
"They told the juniors that in order to break the shackles of the heaven and the earth in this realm and allow themselves to break through the realm of the law, the seniors had made countless attempts, and finally chose a... way of blood sacrifice to the common people. Therefore, all the people in the teaching The elders, in order to save the common people in the world, worked together to destroy the senior's...conspiracy, and forced the senior into this place of nothingness." Ye Zan said slowly, and briefly explained the information he heard from Elder Yu and the others. Speak to the former teacher.
From Elder Yu and the others, Ye Zan had never heard anything too detailed about what happened back then. Therefore, Ye Zan could say so much in front of the former leader, but the cause and effect were relatively clear.
To put it bluntly, in the words of the Moyi sect, the former leader is like a great demon king who destroys the world. In order to gain more power for himself, he frantically wants to sacrifice all the people in the world. The elders of the Moyi Sect acted as the so-called saviors, and stopped the evil deeds of the Great Demon King at the cost of their lives, and finally restored the Moyi domain to a clear world.
After Ye Zan finished speaking, he felt a little uneasy, he could only hang there quietly, not knowing how the other party would react after hearing it.
However, what Ye Zan didn't expect was that after hearing what the outside world said, the former leader didn't appear distraught, but nodded with a smile and said, "So, that's how they describe the old man. This is exactly what the old man expected.”
Seeing the other party's reaction like this, Ye Zan felt a little confused, and couldn't help asking tentatively: "Senior, what you mean is, are there any discrepancies between what they said and the facts, or are there no discrepancies?"
In Ye Zan's mind, no matter whether the former leader is really what he said, he should be able to defend himself at this time. If the other party is really a big devil, facing a person who might help him out, he must try his best to leave a good impression on others. If the other party was wronged, then naturally he had to defend himself and expose the despicable faces of those people outside.
Of course, Ye Zan didn't fully believe what Elder Yu and others said from the beginning. After all, history is written by the victors. However, if he wanted to win over such an ally for Yu Qingzong, then whether the other party's statement was true or not was naturally not that important.
To put it bluntly, what happened back then, whether the creatures in this domain were dead or alive, had nothing to do with Ye Zan. He is not such a person who takes the world as his own responsibility, and he will not explode his sense of justice for some irrelevant things. Therefore, compared to the benefits of forming an alliance with the Moyi religion, even if the Moyi religion is telling lies, he will not refuse to be with it.
Now, Ye Zan asked the former leader if there were discrepancies in those descriptions, and it was more to take care of the other party's emotions. After all, if possible, he didn't want to lose a ray of distraction, as well as the void armor used by this robot, for nothing.
However, the former leader was also a good person, obviously guessing what Ye Zan was thinking, and jokingly asked: "Hehe, do you care if there is any discrepancy?"
Ye Zan, who was guessed, smiled awkwardly, and said: "It stands to reason that this is something that seniors and Moyi taught themselves, and there is no reason for outsiders to get to the bottom of it. However, seniors also Speaking of which, do you want someone to chat with you? Of course, there must be some topics in this chat, so if seniors don't mind, I really want to hear what kind of discrepancies there are in it."
The former leader looked at Ye Zan, maybe he was quite satisfied with Ye Zan's understanding, with a smile on his face, nodded and said: "Hehe, you probably think that the old man should justify himself at this time. ?Unfortunately, although what they said is somewhat different from the truth, there is one thing they said is correct."
Although his mind was broken again, Ye Zan was somewhat immune to this, and immediately asked without changing expression, "Which point?"
On the face of the former leader, there was no trace of shame and remorse, as if everything was taken for granted, he said: "Back then, the old man really wanted to sacrifice blood to all beings in the realm to break the shackles of the world in this realm. You are right!"
Even though Ye Zan was not a righteous person, he still couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart when he heard the other party admitting the matter himself.
As an outsider, Ye Zan didn't have any concerns in Moyi Realm, and indeed he didn't care about the life and death of all living beings in this realm. However, that doesn't mean that he has the "courage" to do such a thing to destroy all living beings in this world with his own hands.
Indeed, before coming to the Moyi domain, Ye Zan prepared a lot of "big killers" as cards in case the Moyi religion was not good for him. However, he just took it out just in case, to deter the enemy at a critical moment. Moreover, when the critical moment came, whether he would use those things was actually a question mark.
Seeing that the other party said this indifferently, Ye Zan felt quite puzzled while feeling chills in his heart, so he asked: "In this case, then I don't know where the discrepancies that senior said before are? Woolen cloth?"
This blood sacrifice to the common people in the domain is already the most serious "accusation", but the former leader of the Moyi religion directly admitted it. So, in Elder Yu's description, apart from this most serious "accusation", is there anything else worth confusing black and white?
The former leader accepted the "accusation" very frankly, but then said a little unhappy: "This old man wants to sacrifice blood to the common people and break the shackles of this world, but it's not as they said, it's just for myself to break through the realm. Back then , if the old man's plan is successful, not only will the old man be able to break through the realm, but other people will also benefit from it. Even, the Dao of Heaven and Earth in the Moyi domain will also be promoted to the avenue of the first-class domain. Isn't this a merit Is it something immeasurable?"
Ye Zan was very surprised by the other party's words. It turned out that the "big devil" in front of him actually had a heart of "saving the world".
However, after thinking about what the other party said, Ye Zan had to admit that there was indeed some truth in it.
If the other party is really as Elder Yu and the others said, it is only for their own breakthrough. Then, the blood sacrifice to the common people in the domain is actually not an efficient choice, that is to say, it is a bit "excessive". Although there is a big gap between Faxiang Realm and Tongtian Realm. But that gap is not enough to be filled with the lives of common people in the realm.
As I said before, although due to the problem of the Dao, even if people from this realm go to the outer realm, it is impossible to break through the realm immediately. Especially, people like them who already have their own Dao, and who have reached a certain level of comprehension of the Dao of Heaven and Earth.
But that doesn't mean that they really don't have the slightest possibility, it's just that there will be great difficulties in it. For others, those difficulties may be difficult to solve. But compared to the common people in the Blood Sacrifice Realm, those difficulties are actually nothing.
In other words, if the former leader really only wanted to break through the realm and be promoted from the Faxiang Realm to the Supreme Supreme, it seemed that going to Outland would be a better choice.
Although, that means that he has to let go of the power of this world, and go to the outer domain to survive as if he had left the house, and he may never be able to come back. However, with the cultivation base of his Faxiang Realm, he can also quickly obtain the corresponding status in the foreign domain. Those great sects in foreign regions would probably promise all kinds of benefits, and invite him to be the elder Keqing, and he is absolutely indispensable for cultivation resources.
And the former leader did not choose to go to the outer domain, but chose the way of blood sacrifice that was more difficult and would be infamous. Then, unless he is attached to the position of the leader, it is really as he said, and it is not just for the breakthrough of his own realm.
In fact, from the perspective of being superior to human beings, the actions of the former leader are not completely condemned. It seems that it is not entirely a bad thing to use the method of blood sacrifice to the common people in the domain to improve the world's avenue of heaven and earth in this domain, so that this Moyi domain can reach the same height as other domains.
