"A sleeping big guy awakened deep in the jungle and declared this place a forbidden area. Any monks from the sect who entered never appeared again."
"Like the ruins of the True Immortal Battlefield, it is also regarded as a forbidden area by the world. Due to the loss of the monster jungle that originally relied on for survival, our Ghost Eater Sect has begun to decline since then."
"Oh, so the existence of your Ghost Devouring Sect has a lot to do with the demon jungle?" I asked casually, pretending to be interested.
"Yes, our sect occupies the geographical advantage here and has long relied on hunting demon clan's demon pills and so on to exchange cultivation materials with outside sects."
"Especially those from well-known and righteous families. They clearly covet the demon clan's blood, bones, fur and other resources, but they despise such a small job. They always like to put on a hypocritical face of compassion and equality for all beings. Only then
It’s cheaper for a small sect like ours.”
"You said that the Demon King's seal place is not very far from here. How can you say that?" I frowned.
"Answer, sir, it is like this. I don't know what kind of power the demon emperor used to break through the space barrier between the demon world and our human world, and killed him."
"According to rumors, that passage is at the junction of Jinzhou and Dazhou, where the two sects of Taoism and Buddhism are based."
"Later, under the combined pressure of the three religions, the demon king was defeated again and again, and finally returned to this place and was sealed in the passage."
"The jungle where demons live near us is actually a small part of the outermost part of the demon emperor's seal."
"If you are interested, sir, you can go deeper into the jungle and you will definitely see the demon emperor's seal. However, it has been too long and you are not a member of the three religions. I am afraid it will be difficult to find that place."
"And...and this journey is really difficult and dangerous. For thousands of years, the demon emperor's right-hand man will always wake up from the darkness, occupy the mountain as the king, cede the land and become the emperor, and regard the sealed place as the demon clan's holy land in the world.
Protect and worship.”
From the fat monk's words, I had a vague understanding of the Demon Emperor's deeds back then, and at the same time I was even more sure that the Demon Ancestor was indeed deceived by my father.
It seems that it was defeated earlier back then and did not even know that the Demon Emperor was sealed. This time it revived and mistakenly thought that the Demon Emperor was dead, so it dared to covet the Blood-devouring Madness unscrupulously.
If it knew the truth, judging from the deep and strict hierarchy within the demon clan, it wouldn't be so confused.
At the same time, I had a rough guess as to where the Demon Ancestor would go with all the demons in the Moon Burial Forest. Isn't that direction the location of the Demon Emperor's seal mentioned by the fat monk?
As the giant arm of the demon ancestor, it can completely sense the presence of other demon generals in that direction!
The reason why he was entrenched in the Moon Burial Forest before was certainly to recover from his injuries, but it was not necessarily because he wanted to dominate the mountain and become the king.
"The three religions are so powerful that they were able to seal the Demon Emperor back then. Why were these demon soldiers and demon generals allowed to gather here?" I asked curiously.
It is said that even an ordinary disciple of the Ghost Eater Sect can know these things, and it is impossible for Confucianism, Taoism and Buddhism not to know them.
However, they really didn't care.
"It's not for the bullshit teachings of benevolence and righteousness, the way of heaven, the virtue of living a good life, etc.!"
The fat monk said angrily: "They think that since the evil demon emperor back then has been killed, then as long as her subordinates do not continue to do evil, they can completely allow them to have a place in our world."
"Those demon generals who were the first to revive caused a lot of tragedies in the beginning because of the Demon Emperor. They were all killed by the three religions with thunderous means as a warning to others."
"This has led to those demon generals who continue to hide in the dark to know how to get along with the human race in this strange world."
"After all, their passage back to the demon world has been sealed together with the demon emperor. Since they can't go back, they naturally have to think about how to survive better."
"Since the three religions have released their goodwill and drawn a bottom line, they are naturally happy to accept it."
The fat monk rambled on a lot. Although it sounded a bit confusing, it also cleared up all the doubts in my mind.
Not only did he have a clear understanding of the structure of the spiritual sects in this world, but also through asking about the past events of the Demon Emperor, he vaguely guessed his father's general plan to use the Demon Ancestor.
"Fat man, what are you doing? Who is he and why do you kneel down to him? I, the Ghost Eater Sect, are shameless? Where is the young master?"
Suddenly, bursts of noisy noises came from not far away, but in this short period of time another group of monks came, and the voices seemed to be from the Ghost Eater Sect.
Seeing his fellow sect members coming carelessly, the fat monk winked at them wildly, but the Ghost Eater Sect was used to being strong and ignored him.
The leader of the visitors was a tall and thin young man with a pretty face, but the strong evil aura in his eyes was intimidating.
He looked rough, but he had his own delicate features. When his eyes inadvertently glanced at the remnants of the activated formation on the ground, his expression changed instantly.
"Who is your Excellency?"
He stopped moving forward and stared at me warily. At the same time, he also stopped the group of fellow disciples behind him who were obviously following his lead.
Naturally, I didn't bother to pay attention to such questions, but the fat monk almost couldn't bear it anymore.
He tried to stand up several times, but because he didn't get my permission, he never dared to do it, and he didn't even dare to remind me aloud.
"Hahaha... What's wrong with your Ghost Devouring Sect? So many masters have gathered at once!"
Suddenly, a wild laugh came from another direction, followed by dense footsteps, and another wave of unfamiliar monks stepped forward.
It is not difficult to judge from his unbridled laughter that this new sect does not seem to be in harmony with the Ghost Eater Sect.
I also don't care much about this group of monks. The strongest among them is only in the Taichu realm, and is no better than the Ghost-Eating Sect.
I have made up my mind that as long as they don't mess with me, I won't make things difficult for them.
I really didn't expect that just after I came out, I would be inexplicably caught up in the disputes in the rivers and lakes that the castle owner mentioned.
It's just that the level of this dispute is far greater than the world he experienced back then.
Although they live in the same world, immortals and mortals are different. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult for ordinary people to interact with monks in their mortal past.
Otherwise, we wouldn’t be so in awe of them!
"Hmph! It's not your Demon Slayer Sect's turn to give us guidance on what we do!"
The tall and thin young monk from the Ghost-Eating Sect snorted coldly, and did not look back at the Demon-Slaying Sect members. He kept a vigilant look at me the whole time.
"That's... Oh my god! Could he be a spirit? Hahaha... How could our Demon Slayer Sect be so lucky today!"
Suddenly, as if the monk from the Demon Slayer Sect had just seen me, he pointed at me and was ecstatic. (To be continued)
