Chen Qingru thought that Chen Fan didn't recognize evil spirits, so he immediately explained Chen Fan's doubts:
"The so-called haunted demons are alien beings transformed into human warriors influenced by the demon god's residue. They possess haunted power and can infect other living beings through the haunted power. Creatures with weak spiritual will can easily be confused by haunted demons... "
Chen Fan had seen evil spirits controlled by the Demon Sect in Daqian before, but this was the first time he heard about the source of evil spirits.
This kind of creature also has a human appearance. It turns out that it is really transformed from a human being!
And he finally understood why evil spirits could spread plagues and bewitch monsters!
Monster beasts are generally physically powerful, but their intelligence is insufficient. Compared with the strength of human "gods", it is insufficient, and they are more likely to lose their minds than human warriors.
It’s just that this is the first time I’ve heard of the so-called demon god’s residue.
"What is the devil's residue?" Chen Fan also asked directly.
Chen Qingru frowned slightly and explained:
"Demon residue is a special kind of 'karma' left behind by the death of the 'Demon King'. It will infect any living creature and cause great harm..."
Dead creatures can still cause such horrific harm.
"Demon King?" Chen Fan became even more confused.
He had never heard of these secrets in a corner of the Southeast Region.
Chen Qingru squinted her eyes, naturally seeing Chen Fan's doubts, and introduced:
"In the ancient times, our continent had dozens of extremely powerful alien creatures, known as Demon God Kings. However, there was a big change later. Many of these Demon God Kings died, and many of them went to the Sea of Chaos. And the Demon God Ruins..."
"There are currently ten major demon sects in the mainland, and each sect has the remains of the Demon God King!"
Listening to Chen Qingru's explanation, Chen Fan also had a lot of thoughts rolling around in his heart.
He has seen evil spirits before, and he also knows that evil spirits feed on negative emotions such as despair. When Yuan Mo Sect invaded Daqian, they also used evil spirits as a special weapon!
"In other words... these evil spirits in Mulan Grassland are also the work of the ten major demon sects?"
Chen Qingru shook his head:
"This is not necessarily true. Not all corpses of the Demon God King are in the hands of the Demon Sect, and the formation of evil spirits is related to the 'Demon God's Residues'. The items left behind by the Demon God King during his lifetime may also contain 'Demon God's Residues'. Wild evil spirits Demons are not uncommon.”
"However, evil spirits often do not have high intelligence. Even if wild evil spirits may appear near the mines, they cannot steal the ores. This incident... is most likely caused by someone behind the scenes, but it is very possible. It was a certain demon sect who was behind this..."
Chen Qingru said suddenly:
"My Sword Sect once had a big conflict with the Ten Demon Sects, the Hatian Demon Sect..."
Chen Fan raised his eyebrows: "Is this what the Hatred Demon Sect calls this?"
Chen Qingru smiled and said, "I don't rule out this possibility. However, my Sword Sect has offended many Demon Sects. In addition to Hatantian Demon Sect, we have also had conflicts with Yuan Demon Sect and Tongtian Demon Sect."
Chen Fan understood the matter clearly and frowned deeply.
Extremely helpless.
"The top ten demon sects, my assessment is so troublesome..."
Since the matter involves the ten major demon sects, it is naturally not a trivial matter.
Chen Qingru shook his head and said again:
"Jialan Country is just a small country, not worth mentioning. However, Xuanjin Vein is very precious and our Sword Sect also attaches great importance to it."
"My Sword Sect has also sent other experts to go there. They have already set off, so don't worry too much!"
Chen Fan frowned and said: "Since I am just making up the numbers, you still want me to investigate the truth behind it?"
If he was asked to go to a certain place to kill an enemy, such a task would be what he would most like to do, it is simple and crude.
He has enough confidence in his own strength.
However, tasks such as investigating the truth behind the scenes do not require high personal strength, but rather test one's personal skills.
And luck is also important.
Chen Fan really didn't want to do this kind of task.
trouble.
When Chen Qingru saw Chen Fan's expression, she suddenly smiled:
"Who told you that you must investigate the truth behind the scenes? As long as you complete either of these two goals, you will pass the assessment!"
Chen Fan, however, had a hardened expression and resisted the urge to roll his eyes.
The difference between choosing one of the two and doing it alone is huge.
Elder Chen didn't say it was a choice between the two before, and he deliberately revealed the key point later. I'm afraid it was not intentional.
This Chen Qingru looks like an iceberg, but in fact he is really full of bad taste.
Knowing that he only needed to complete one goal, Chen Fan breathed a sigh of relief.
Killing three level 10 enemies was quite simple for him.
Next, Chen Qingru immediately handed over the map and some detailed information to Chen Fan...
Then he also said: "Jiange will send elders to supervise you. If you are ready, you can set off at any time!"
Chen Fan did not stay in Jianzong for any longer. He immediately left Jianzong after accepting the assessment.
Heading towards the destination...
…
The sky is billowy and the streamers are twinkling.
Chen Fan stepped on Xiaodie and headed towards the Jialan Kingdom.
With his consciousness, he had already noticed an illusory figure following far behind him.
This elder is at the Dao Fruit level, and his spiritual consciousness is much weaker than Chen Fan's, so he naturally cannot detect Chen Fan's exploration.
"The Sword Sect is indeed extraordinary. Anyone sent out at random is a Dao Fruit expert... Could it be that all the elders of the Sword Pavilion are at the Dao Fruit level?"
But Chen Fan was overthinking this.
The elders of Jiange are also ranked high and low. The reason why Jianzong sent Daoguo masters for Chen Fan is because Chen Fan has a special status and is a disciple recommended by the Canghai Sword Emperor.
Naturally, I will pay more attention to it.
And because of the elder of Jiange, Chen Fan did not let Xiaodie swallow the Yuanjing, but suppressed her speed.
If he exploded at full speed, he might be able to get rid of this elder directly.
even so.
It also made the sword pavilion elder who followed him secretly complain.
Behind him, a middle-aged warrior wearing a long white gown, with a flying sword on his feet, followed the faint red light in the distance with a speechless expression on his face:
"This kid, what kind of spirit beast is he? His speed is too exaggerated!"
He stepped on the flying sword and relied on his sense of Chen Fan's token to barely follow behind!
Sword flying is inherently an extremely fast way of traveling.
Not to mention that he is a Taoist and his speed is astonishing.
However, although he felt helpless in his heart, he was not too surprised. After all, Chen Fan's status was extraordinary.
"As expected of the person Canghai Sword Emperor likes..."
He was also very curious about Chen Fan.
…
Even if he suppressed his speed, Chen Fan reached Jialan Country in half a day.
Although Jialan Country is a small country, it still has a population of tens of millions, and although it is located in an open grassland, there are many mineral veins located in it.
The most precious among them is the mysterious gold vein that was attacked...
