The strange demonic cloud twisted and twisted, like a dragon, a snake, or a demon. It flashed away and quickly disappeared into the strange lights and shadows in the depths.
Lu Tianchi looked solemn and slowly sheathed his sword. Although he won the battle, this strange demonic cloud shrouded his heart like a shadow and lingered for a long time, making him uneasy.
"Don't think too much!"
Wu Ming said with an indifferent expression.
"Cousin, does he know what the hell it is?"
Lu Zijin asked.
Lu Tianchi raised his sword eyebrows, his eyes were shocked, and then he became somewhat clear.
Although he has experienced a lot in these years, in fact, unless necessary, he only concentrates on swordsmanship and rarely pays attention to other things. In terms of knowledge, he is really not as good as Wu Ming.
"If I feel it right, it should be the strange spirit that was formed after this person's energy and spirit were completely burned, and the last bit of soul power was contaminated by the special power of this place!"
Wu Mingdao.
"Foreign spirit?"
The two looked at each other, this was the first time they heard about it.
In fact, if there were no records about supernatural spirits in the inheritance of the inner demon, Wu Ming would not have known about it, and he even remembered it only after recalling the inheritance just now.
"This kind of supernatural spirit can only appear under extremely special circumstances. As far as I know, there are only a handful of places in China where it can exist. The most likely place is in the Tomb of the Saints!"
Wu Mingyang pondered for a while and shook his head, "This monster is not aggressive, but it is somewhere between reality and reality. It looks like an energy body, but it also has the mark of life. The difference is that it is what is left after the death of the living being. It can only be drawn by the holy way.
It can only be generated if it is lowered, and... there must be at least three types."
"Three kinds?"
Lu Tianchi frowned slightly and said in confusion, "The third uncle and the Demon Emperor fell here. At most, there are only two types. How can there be three types? Could it be that there is another powerful man of the holy way who took action?
"
"Haha, there are countless weird and unpredictable things in the world. How do you know that no strong person can master the holy way before being canonized?"
Wu Ming smiled.
Lu Tianchi and Lu Zijin were stunned for a moment, and then they understood.
If others were to talk about it, it would be a joke at most, but if they really had to choose one person, Wu Mingji would probably be the unparalleled genius who mastered the holy way before being canonized.
Not to mention anything else, it can be seen from the fact that he is unpredictable and has a true martial arts spirit that far exceeds the same level, even making a semi-saint strong man unable to compete with him.
But what puzzled the two of them was that the true meaning of martial arts had reached such an unfathomable level, why they still didn't break through to the semi-saint level.
Even if you can be invincible in the realm of great masters, even unprecedented and unmatched, you can't be as good as a semi-sage and end up as an ant. What's the point?
Not only the uncle and nephew are puzzled, but everyone is puzzled. After all, the true meaning of martial arts reaches a state of perfection, and it actually has the foundation of a semi-saint.
The higher the realm of cultivation, the stronger the strength. If you have been suppressed in one realm without breaking through, you can become stronger in this realm, or even undergo a qualitative change, and the foundation will be stronger.
But there will also be another disadvantage, that is, if the foundation is strong, the shackles will be stronger, and it will be more difficult to break through.
The so-called act according to one's ability, manpower is limited, that's it!
"It seems that this trip will have unexpected gains. If I am not wrong, most of the powerful demons who died here from the demon clan have condensed the prototype of their own holy way, or even the complete holy way, and they are just missing.
The ultimate demon king with one kick!"
Of course Wu Ming didn't know that the two of them were thinking a lot in that moment, so they just looked in the direction they came from.
Lu Tianchi's expression was stern. If this was true, he would be a strong man on the same level as Lu Jiuyuan.
Of course, although their cultivation levels are similar, their strength is completely different. After all, Lu Jiuyuan is an extremely strong man who dares to use his sword against the saint!
But even so, the origin of a holy path is enough to drive the strong men below the holy level crazy. Even the saints will be tempted to collect it, or use it for reference, or use it as a reward for those who have no chance to break through. It is one of the most precious treasures.
one.
"Although Zhou Yunkai is not the most powerful among the great masters, he is still among the second-rate. If even he can't hold on, those people..."
Lu Zijin said.
“One out of ten can’t be saved!”
Wu Ming looked indifferent and said coldly, "So, they are waiting, not only for the holy will of the sword to be consolidated and to reach a critical point of balance with the demon spirit's residual thoughts, but also for the strong demons to enter first."
"I understand what's going on when the balance is reached, but if we wait for the demons to get in first, won't we let the demons gain the upper hand in vain?"
Lu Tianchi said hesitantly.
"Haha, of course I'll wait until the source of the holy way here is full first!"
Wu Ming smiled slightly, turned around and walked inward.
"Have you eaten enough?"
The uncle and nephew looked at each other, shuddered, and hurriedly followed.
It goes without saying that the strange demonic cloud before must be the source of the holy way here!
The demon clan is different from the human clan. Most of them focus on cultivating their strength and rarely cultivate their mind. This "power" is not physical strength, but pure power. They only pursue powerful destructive power, but never pay attention to their character.
Just like if an ordinary person wins the lottery, nine times out of ten his character will change drastically within a short period of time.
It is precisely because of this that most demons have extremely cruel temperaments. In fact, their strength increases too quickly, and their moods are unstable, resulting in distorted minds.
If things go on like this without good guidance, a special power will be formed over time, and then integrated into the blood, passed down from generation to generation, and can no longer be eliminated.
Only the five royal families and the Ziyue Royal Family have the real secret technique to ease their minds. This is the real reason why the six families are at the top of the Demonic Star Tianyuan!
The two of them didn't know this, but Wu Ming did.
In terms of the strength of this secret technique, inner demons are the most important among the demon clan. Even except for the Ziyue Demon Clan, the formation of this method among the five royal families is all related to inner demons.
It is said that the deadly battle between the Purple Moon Demon Lord and the Silver Ash Snake was related to this, because the emergence of the five royal families diluted the ruling power of the Purple Moon Royal Family. Although it did not cause any damage, it did weaken their authority.
A few points.
Of course, Wu Ming deduced this bit by bit based on the inheritance of the inner demon, as well as the legends and sporadic clues from many demons.
As for whether this is the case, Wu Ming doesn't care. As long as he is strong enough, he will know sooner or later when he sets foot on the Demon Star Tianyuan the next day!
The three of them continued to move forward. Except for the previous few people who were affected by the demonic thoughts of the holy way here, no one else rushed in. It is not known whether they knew Zhou Yunkai's fate or were waiting for the demons to advance first as Wu Ming said.
.
"Sure enough, they are all gone!"
Going straight for a hundred miles and reaching the depths of Ghost Valley, Wu Ming's eyes became even more clear.
"What's missing?"
Lu Zijin asked curiously.
It was her first time here, but she didn't know what the most notorious demon in Youxia Ridge was.
"Ghost, ghost!"
Wu Ming chuckled and shook his head. Seeing that the two of them were puzzled, he explained as he walked, "This place was originally called Ghost Valley. It was the last gathering point of the surviving tribes in Ghost Canyon Ridge after a great war in the late Middle Ages. Unfortunately, what happened later
After a series of tragic events, many people became ownerless souls. With the changes in the sea and the world, the world evolved and became ghosts. Among them, the strong ones were demons and ghosts. In their early years, they were only half-step innate at most!"
"With such strength, when two powerful men from the Holy Realm fight, not to mention the aftermath, even a sweeping breath is enough to annihilate them. It's no wonder that no foreign objects remain! What's more, this is the center of the battle between the two powerful men.
"
The two nodded in understanding.
"If it were a little further away, with the special terrain of this place, the underground spiritual veins, and the special formation built by those who were tempted and fell into the devil's way, it is impossible to say that extremely powerful demons could be born!"
Wu Ming finished speaking with a smile, but stopped again.
"What's wrong?"
The two looked around and saw no danger.
"I can only send you here. As for the rest of the way, you can only rely on yourself!"
Wu Ming raised his right hand, palm upward, and flew out three metal pieces of different sizes, which were fragments of the holy sword. Two of the large pieces landed in front of the two of them.
Lu Tianchi frowned slightly, with a complicated look in his eyes, and held the fragment of the holy sword in his palm.
"Cousin, won't you come with us?"
Lu Zijin did not answer, but asked.
"Everyone has his or her own fate, and the path is chosen by oneself. I am at most a leader, and I am unqualified!"
Wu Ming chuckled and shook his head, and warned, "It's just that I have something to tell you. The will of the holy way is ultimately will. Although it represents a person's thoughts left in the world, it is also the most persistent and lingering thought. Don't be fooled by this.
The influence of residual thoughts, otherwise... even if you use this to step into the holy path, you will be nothing more than a puppet!"
"puppet!"
The two of them looked stern, already understanding the danger involved.
Just as the ancestral precepts of the Lu family said, future generations should uphold the will of their ancestors to watch the tide, carry forward the past and forge ahead into the future, and move forward without losing the reputation of their ancestors. They should overcome thorns and thorns for the human race and create a prosperous age.
Lu Jiuyuan followed suit and did better, but what was the result?
In the hearts of the two of them, and even in the hearts of all the Lu family members, both Ancestor Guanchao and Lu Jiuyuan are indomitable heroes and gentlemen, and anyone who dares to oppose them is a traitor.
Therefore, the Lu family is united, but the result is death and annihilation. Even if it is praised by future generations, what is the point?
"Go ahead. The restrictions in the fragments of the Holy Sword will be erased by my secret techniques. You don't have to worry about being plotted against!"
Wu Ming waved his hand and looked deeply into the depths, as if he saw something through the layers of sky, but also seemed to see nothing.
"Cousin, take care!"
Lu Zijin bit his red lips, stepped forward and hugged Wu Ming gently, then walked forward holding the fragment of the holy sword.
Lu Tianchi nodded, without saying much, and followed closely.
Buzz!
Just after walking more than ten feet, the fragments of the holy sword suddenly floated out on their own, covering the two of them and turning into a stream of light. In a moment, they rushed into the distorted light and shadow in the distance and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
"Is this your back-up plan? Sure enough, after being plotted and suppressed all my life, I finally understand a little bit and won't be completely confused!"
Wu Ming chuckled and murmured in a low voice, showing dryness and helplessness.
It turns out that after getting the fragment of the Holy Sword, he used the power of the Mountain and Sea Realm Pearl to wipe out the secret hand hidden in it, but he still felt that there was a familiar and unfamiliar power hidden deep in the depths.
The former is undoubtedly the means of the Holy Temples, while the latter is left by Lu Jiuyuan!
"Calculating the time, it's almost time for the demon clan to make some movement. Which one should we attack first?"
Wu Ming's eyebrows flashed with silvery light, he put away the fragments of the holy sword, slightly changed direction and left.
