Chapter 1017 The Twelve States of Sky Cloud: The Demon's Conspiracy
In the meeting of wind and cloud, dragons and snakes are mixed.
The treasures left by the ancient monks are no small matter. Despite the doubts in their hearts, more and more immortal cultivators came one after another.
Although some people think that there may be a conspiracy, so what, the cultivation of immortals is full of dangers, and no one of the high-level monks has come through the bloody storm.
Even if the treasures left by the ancient monks may not be real, with so many comrades entering, they can still fish in troubled waters and take the opportunity to do the murderous thing of stealing treasures.
Moreover, not one or two people had this kind of thought, and there seemed to be a dangerous atmosphere in the air.
On the outside of Yunling Mountain, there is an inconspicuous small mountain peak.
On the top of the mountain, two figures stood proudly.
The one on the left is only seventeen or eighteen years old, younger than Lin Xuan, and his skin is as white as jade, but his hair and eyebrows are like snow in winter.
His demeanor was calm and peaceful, and if the elders of Hashime City saw him, they would definitely turn pale with shock. This person was actually the city lord they feared.
Shouldn't Zhenjun Beiming be practicing in seclusion in the cave mansion? Come on, what are you doing here?
Even more surprising was the guy next to him.
There was a cloud of black air covering his whole body. Although his facial features could not be seen clearly, they were faintly different from human beings, especially the aura he exuded was strikingly similar to that of Jialuo Gumo.
His identity is a mystery, but his cultivation has reached the late Yuanying stage.
The guy closed his eyes tightly, and released his consciousness quietly and secretly. After a while, his face showed a satisfied look: "Yes, yes, there are not 10,000 monks who came to the Yunling Mountains to seek death, and there should be 8,000. With so many blood offerings, our plan will surely succeed."
"However, among these people, apart from the low-level immortal cultivators, seven or eight old monsters of the Guangyuan infant stage have also entered, and there may be more in the future. Is there really no problem? Are you sure you will not be self-defeating?" Zhenjun Beiming Slowly opened his mouth.
"Don't worry, I know it well. Although there are many low-level monks, if there are not a few monks at the Nascent Soul stage as the keys to open the formation, there is still no way to counteract the power of the interface, and it will be difficult for the demon ancestor to split the soul smoothly." It's coming." The figure in the black air spoke slowly, appearing to have a plan in mind: "However, I never thought that Fellow Daoist Beiming, as the lord of Haoshi City, would be so ruthless that even his elders would treat him equally. Lie to death."
"Are you mocking me when you say that?" Zhenjun Beiming showed displeasure on his face: "It's not that you don't know the details of my subordinates. They are widely rejected no matter whether they are in the human race or the monster race. Even as a great monk, But once the identity is exposed, it is impossible to be the city lord again. Since they did not regard me as one of their own, why should I care about their life and death? The reason why I joined Huangshi City was to cover up my identity and have a quiet place to practice , now it’s more of a tool to use.”
"That's right, if fellow daoist isn't a half-demon, I'm really worried about cooperating with you." The shadow monster in the black air said with a smile.
Zhenjun Beiming frowned, but soon his expression remained normal: "However, I never thought that there are still monsters in Yunzhou, and there are so many of them."
"Hmph, what's so strange about this? In ancient times, although we were indeed seriously injured by ancient monks, it would be an exaggeration to say that we were wiped out, but in this human world, we really cannot They are rivals with you, so I have to swallow my anger, hide in those barren lands with poor mountains and bad waters, and slowly recuperate, now that millions of years have passed, it is normal for there to be thousands of people."
"This human world, what do you mean by your words?" Zhenjun Beiming frowned, with a bit of surprise on his face.
"Why, with the supernatural powers of fellow daoists, don't you know about the interface? You should know that the upper interface of the fairy world, the spirit world, and the ancient demon world are extremely vast and unique, but the human world of the lower interface has a common interface. Nine places, implying the intention of returning ninety-nine to one." The demon said with a light smile.
"This Lu is naturally clear, so what?"
"It's not obvious. Among the nine human worlds, about four are dominated by human races and demon races, while our demon race has been slaughtered, and there is a triad of three races, far more than other human worlds." As for the remaining four..."
"How?" Even though Zhenjun Beiming had vaguely guessed it in his heart, he still couldn't help but change his face.
"Naturally, in turn, among the four human worlds, our demon race is powerful, while you two races of human monsters are just lingering."
"Is there such a thing?"
"Why should I lie to you?" The demon's voice was full of pride: "Fellow Daoists must also know that there are often wars between the spirit world and the demon world, but for hundreds of millions of years, they have kept pace with each other, and their strength has always been almost the same. Although there are native-born monks and monsters in the upper-level interface, they also cannot do without Ascenders as a supplement, and you masters of the separation and reunion period of the two races, if it is not a last resort, you will not choose to ascend to the Demon Realm at all, if it is not for the other people The demon world is dominated by monsters, so that the demon world can also be supplemented by sufficient ascenders. After so many years, the spirit world has already gained the upper hand."
True Monarch Beiming nodded, his words were reasonable.
What's more, the reason why he asked the question was because he was curious, and these things had nothing to do with him.
Nascent Soul is already a top-level existence in the human world in the later stage, but it is still far away from Ascension.
Thinking of this, Zhenjun Beiming fell silent, and after a while, he spoke slowly again: "According to what fellow Daoist said, you are 90% sure. ..."
"Don't worry, even though I'm a monster, I will never break my promise to fellow Taoists." The figure in the black air waved his hand and said firmly: "This time, it's actually a coincidence. The tribe has always wanted to get in touch with the same tribe in the upper realm, but it has been unsuccessful for millions of years. Unexpectedly, a few years ago, the demon ancestor used his supernatural powers to contact us on his own initiative, and passed down the Great Formation of Ten Thousand Souls and Blood , after opening, it can counteract the power of the boundary, and let the soul of the demon ancestor descend."
"And you and I are both in the late Nascent Soul stage. The Demon Ancestor promised to take us back to the upper realm after the matter is completed. The cultivation resources of the ancient demon world are far from what the human world can compare. With your aptitude and my aptitude, it is difficult to advance to the human world. It’s only a short period, but when we get there..." Speaking of this, the demon in the black air danced happily, his face full of excitement.
"Your Excellency is a monster, so it's fine to go to the Demon Realm, but I heard that even if you are a monk in the separation and reunion period, if you ascend to the Demon Realm, you have to go through the infusion of demonic energy before you can transform into a demon. The harsh art of marrow washing and body forging, the ascension person in the separation and reunion period, nine out of ten can't bear it, explodes and dies, and the only one left is the late Nascent Soul, isn't it..."
"Don't worry, fellow daoist. My demon clan has clear rewards and punishments. This time you helped me make a great contribution. How could the demon ancestor be indifferent? After arriving in the upper realm, you will be taken care of by the demon ancestor himself. You are absolutely safe from danger. .” The demon hurriedly spoke to comfort him, his tone of voice was extremely sincere.
"It's not that I don't believe you, it's just a matter of life and death, how can I not be more serious, such a guarantee is not acceptable..." Zhenjun Beiming is extremely cunning, how can he trust the other party's verbal promises, and when the time comes, he has nowhere to cry .
"According to fellow daoist, what do you want?" The demon asked slightly dissatisfied.
"It's very simple. Your Excellency signed a life and death contract with me. Naturally, I will not have the slightest scruples and will do my best to assist you." Zhenjun Beiming took a step forward and spoke every word.
"Life and death contract?" The demon was stunned for a moment, then his face changed wildly, mixed with surprise and anger: "Don't you think this condition, fellow daoist, is too much."
The contract of life and death, as the name suggests, is a mysterious contract handed down from ancient times. Like the blood contract of master and servant, if you want to sign it, the parties must not be reluctant at all and be based on a completely voluntary basis.
And this contract is signed, and there is no benefit at all. The only function is to bind the lives of two people together. If one of them dies, even if the other one does not suffer any harm, it will fall inexplicably because of the laws of heaven and earth. .
Because this contract is of no benefit to anyone, unless there is a very special reason, no one will go crazy and actively use it.
But for Zhenjun Beiming, it is just right now. After signing this contract, he will not be afraid that the other party will kill the donkey and finish the trick.
Facing the demon's anger, he had a warm smile on his face instead: "What are you afraid of, Fellow Daoist? Then you cancel the contract, didn't you say that there is absolutely no danger in pouring the body under the care of Master Demon Ancestor, so if you sign the contract or not, what do you have to be afraid of?"
The monster didn't open his mouth, his eyes flickered, even for a moment, the murderous aura overflowed uncontrollably, but Zhenjun Beiming turned a blind eye to it, and the smile on his face became more and more kind.
After looking at each other for a cup of tea, the anger on the monster's face suddenly disappeared without warning, and he smiled: "Friend Daoist said well, I will definitely cooperate sincerely, if you are not at ease, you can sign the contract." Can."
"Hehe, thank you fellow daoist for your understanding. Don't worry, let Master Demon Ancestor descend with a split soul this time. I will do my best to ensure a smooth success." Zhenjun Beiming was overjoyed, and hurriedly patted his chest and said something, then frowned He frowned: "However, there is one thing that I have always wondered in my heart. The Demon Ancestor is a high-level existence in the upper realm. Why did he go to the human realm? Is it like in ancient times, preparing to invade here?"
"Of course not." The demon shook his head: "Millions of years ago, the people from the upper realm invaded the human realm. I heard that it was because of a special reason that the power of the barrier was greatly weakened, so a large number of demons came to the lower realm. Yes, this kind of situation has only happened two or three times in hundreds of millions of years, so there is no possibility of another invasion of the human world."
