Chapter 1314 Taoguang Palace, the mysterious old man, the history of the demon clan
"If you are curious about anything, you can ask me.
About the devil."
"What is the devil's path?" Since the other party said it, Xu Zimo naturally asked casually.
"No way, you are a member of the demon clan and you don't even know the path of demons?" Wang Li said in surprise.
"You asked me to ask," Xu Zimo said.
"On weekdays, I am busy practicing and rarely care about these things."
"It's all common sense. Even if you don't care, you should know it," Xu Jiamo next to him said.
"You should know about the evil demon senior of our demon clan."
Although Xu Zimo didn't know, he still nodded bravely.
Otherwise, several people would definitely doubt his identity.
"Before the death of Senior Evil Demon, he left behind his lifelong legacy.
He arranged this devil's path to allow those who come after him to explore and obtain his inheritance,"
Wang Li then explained: "But Senior Evil Demon is indeed the strongest person in our new era of demons.
His inheritance has been preserved for thousands of years. Others who entered the devil's path only gained some superficial knowledge.
But no one has found the true inheritance so far.
Every time people go in, they come back without success.”
"Since he is the senior of our demon clan, just leave the inheritance to him.
Why do you have to make it so complicated?" Xu Zimo asked.
"The demon clan has always been a world where the weak prey on the strong. How could the inheritance of the strong fall into the hands of the mediocre," Wang Li continued.
"If you want to pass on the inheritance, everyone should rely on their abilities, so that everyone will be convinced."
Hearing this, Xu Zimo nodded in approval.
The children trained in this way are almost all elites.
Relying on yourself is the real way.
"I still have some things to do at the college, so let's gather tomorrow," Xu Zimo said.
"We are waiting for you in the Triumph Palace, please don't lie to us," Wang Li warned.
"It takes five people to enter the Devil's Path."
"Don't worry," Xu Zimo nodded.
After saying goodbye to the four people, Xu Zimo walked into the gate of the Demon Palace.
The buildings here are also extremely luxurious.
Each academy hall is mainly made of black gilt, and is actually decorated with various colors.
There are various styles. The black demonic river passes through the demonic palace, and the rich demonic energy flowing in it floats in the void.
As soon as Xu Zimo walked in, he could feel the extremely strong demonic energy here.
"It's interesting," he murmured to himself.
I walked around here and looked around.
After passing through several paths, Xu Zimo came to the demon clan's academy.
If you want to understand the history of the Demon Clan and what happened over the years, there is no better place than this academy.
Compared with the domineering decoration style outside, the style of this academy is much more elegant.
There is a statue wearing Confucian robes at the door.
The demon looked extremely gentle.
The buildings inside are also replaced by blue and white. The academy is not just a main hall.
There are nine twists and turns here, with no end in sight.
It probably looks like there are at least dozens of halls connected together.
However, there is a caretaker of the academy, a slovenly old man.
He sat on a chair in front of the academy with his feet resting on the wooden table in front of him.
He was fast asleep.
When Xu Zimo was about to walk in, he suddenly woke up.
"The academy is closed these days," the old man said.
His face was thin, and there seemed to be something stuck between his teeth. He was picking his teeth while talking.
"I want to go in and have a look," Xu Zimo said.
"It won't disturb anything."
"I told you not to go in," the old man still shook his head.
But at this time, he seemed to sense something.
Wei Wei was silent for a while, and looked at Xu Zimo strangely.
Slowly he said, "You can go in."
Although he was surprised by the other party's sudden change, Xu Zimo did not dwell too much on it.
Entering the academy, the doors to the rest of the halls are closed.
Only the main hall called "Taoguang" was open, and Xu Zimo walked in.
……………
The soft sunlight shines in from the window, and the dust is lazily scattered on the ground.
The shelves of bookshelves are neatly arranged together, following the shadows reflected by the sunlight.
Xu Zimo walked in. It was very quiet here, with only the sound of turning pages of books ringing in his ears.
He looked up and saw an old man sitting on the floor inside, leaning against the bookshelf.
He looked at the old man and felt that he looked familiar.
Suddenly I remembered that when I entered the academy before, I saw a statue that looked exactly like the old man.
"What book do you want, Master?" the old man stood up, walked forward with a smile and asked.
"Just now at the door, you asked that person to let me in?" Xu Zimo did not answer, but asked instead.
"Young Master knows why you need to ask," the old man said with a smile.
"What do you call it?" Xu Zimo asked.
"They call me Demon Saint, but I remember that very ancient times, someone called me Xiaozhe," the old man said.
"Just call me that."
"Xiao Zhe?" Xu Zimo repeated.
He felt that the old man must know him, but it was a pity that he could not remember anything.
"I want to know what major events have happened in the Demon Realm in recent years," Xu Zimo said.
The old man smiled and sent the book in his hand to Xu Zimo.
Said: "This book has everything you want to know."
Xu Zimo was a little surprised. The old man seemed to have known the purpose of his trip.
He took the book, but he could feel that the old man had no ill intentions toward him.
On the contrary, there is deep respect.
"There is a table over here," the old man led Xu Zimo through several bookshelves, and there was a prepared stone heart table next to it.
There is a faint fragrance coming from the table, which makes people feel relaxed and happy.
Xu Zimo didn't think too much, put the book on the table and read it.
……………
Today's Demon Realm has thirty-six caves and seventy-two mountains.
The forces of the demon clan are also intricate and complex.
Although the Purgatory Demon Temple is in charge of the general direction, he rarely makes decisions. The leader of the Demon Clan is an existence called the Demonic Emperor.
Although it is said that Heaven divided the Demon Realm to the Demon Clan to stabilize them.
However, the demons are also afraid of the law of heaven. They are in charge of the evil demon realm secretly and rarely show their true bodies to do anything.
Xu Zimo flipped through page after page, and the more he read, the more interesting it became.
The old man next to me has been standing quietly.
Occasionally, I would pour Xu Zimo a cup of hot tea. I don’t know what the tea was, but one sip made me feel comfortable.
Occasionally, when the tea gets cold, the old man, like a servant, respectfully changes it into a hot one.
Before I knew it, it was getting dark.
The old man lit the oil lamp, and the wick was beating, and the whole hall suddenly lit up.
"This desperate demon has some backbone," Xu Zimo occasionally commented.
