Chapter 64 Chapter 64 "Yao Ning." Shang Linran was very cautious...
"Chaos Qi?" Amidst the clamor of astonishment, someone calmly asked, "Besides the Heavenly Dao, who else has the qualifications and the ability to spread Chaos Qi?"
The Way of Heaven is flawed, and no one in the world has reached the state of spiritual enlightenment for thousands of years, let alone ascended to heaven.
Heaven and earth are not benevolent; they treat all things as straw dogs.
Whether they are humans or demons, in the eyes of Heaven, they are all mayflies that live and die in a day. Would Heaven go to so much trouble just to make hundreds of people possessed by demons?
If it weren't for the Way of Heaven, who in the world could spread the energy of chaos silently?
If such a person really existed, wouldn't he be able to compare himself with the gods in heaven with his mortal body?
Inside the Taishi Hall of Genshan, all the sects of the Nine Continents fell silent.
"Will being infected by the chaotic energy eventually lead to demonic possession?"
Gu Wuyan said: "No."
Chaos is neither clear nor turbid. The initial sign of infection is that the cultivator becomes possessed by a demon, and the demon becomes a human. But that is only a symptom. Eventually, the infected person's consciousness will gradually become dull, and their awareness will collapse infinitely until they become part of the chaos.
Whether it is for the righteous path or the demon world, if the chaotic energy spreads on a large scale, it will be a huge catastrophe.
If there really is such a person, he probably wouldn't be the Demon Lord Jiangcan.
When the Brahma Temple underwent a major transformation that day, members of all the major sects in the Nine Continents were present. Some immediately became restless: "What should we do? Are we just going to watch the infected cultivators turn into chaos?"
Gu Wuchen's brow furrowed deeply as he sternly gazed at the noisy and frantic sect leaders. "Everyone, turning into chaos is the best possible outcome. Before the destruction of Brahma Temple, the Buddhist disciple Xie Qi became possessed by a demon and stole the relic. He was originally planning to rebel and flee to the demonic realm."
The hall fell silent, and the profound meaning in Gu Wuchen's words made everyone shudder.
"Gu, Sect Master Gu, you mean..."
"Yes." Gu Wu said, "It's been infected by the chaotic energy. It would be best if it could be removed as soon as possible. But that is the chaotic energy. How can it be easily separated from one's own spiritual energy? I believe someone must have tried before coming here..."
Gu Wuchen glanced around and some people looked away, not daring to look at him.
"If you remove the chaotic energy, your cultivation will definitely be greatly reduced, and you may never be able to enter the Dao again. That's why you all came to Xuanqing Sect to find out if there are any other methods."
Gu Wuchen felt several expectant gazes, rubbed his brows, and continued in a deep voice: "Yes. As long as we follow the chaotic energy, deepen the symptoms of infection, and completely reach the other extreme."
Completely possessed.
"Bang." Someone couldn't hold the teacup anymore and it fell to the ground and broke into pieces.
Once he becomes possessed by the devil and betrays the righteous path, what’s the point of rescuing him?
Everyone felt a chill in their hearts.
They seemed to have walked into a chess game invisibly, becoming chess pieces without knowing it, and joining a cruel and brutal battle.
The righteous path is engulfed in demons, and monsters become human. Betrayal, surrender, suspicion, chaos...
What outcome does the chess player want?
No one spoke for a long time, only the distant green mountains and drifting white clouds remained outside the palace gate.
The one who broke the silence was the Weishui Sword Sect's headmaster: "Sect Master Gu, let's put everything else aside for now. What I'm confused about is, if the Chaos Energy is so powerful, why did your sect's Immortal Venerable Yao Ning remain unharmed from beginning to end?"
Gu Wuchen looked at him expressionlessly. The Weishui Sword Sect's head continued, "And Chen Qian, has he been completely possessed by the devil?"
Everyone looked at Gu Wuchen, scrutinizing him silently. He knew that this matter concerned the overall situation of the cultivation world. In the chaos, enemies and friends must be clearly distinguished.
He must give everyone a satisfactory answer.
"Chen Qian was in danger of becoming possessed while protecting his wife, but he later recovered as normal. Everyone present can attest to this. Of course, to prove his innocence, you are welcome to come and see him once he recovers."
"As for Yao Ning, I have imprisoned her in the forbidden area in the back mountains." Gu Wu said, "If she behaves abnormally, Xuan Qing Sect will not tolerate it."
"Same." He looked down at everyone, "Before this, she was still a member of the Xuanqing Sect, a disciple of me, Gu Wuchen. If anyone had any intentions towards her—"
Gu Wuchen changed the subject: "Now that the Brahma Temple has collapsed, before you do anything, you must first consider the importance of our sect."

Du Wuzhu seemed to have not expected Du Xuan to ask such a question. He raised his eyebrows and asked instead of answering, "What did I do to you when you were in Taohua An?"
Du Xuandu paused and pursed his lips.
Du Wuzhu did nothing.
He just stood there, and countless Taohua An disciples were jealous of him. Du Xuan even climbed from the bottom to the position of saint, just to be able to stand by his side and look at him from time to time.
The Hehuan Sect practices dual cultivation, and sexual pleasure is also a way of cultivation. Du Wuzhu has slept with many beautiful disciples, including Du Xuandu.
Du Xuan is not an exception, not special.
Du Wuzhu had never been in love with her, nor had he ever valued her. After she crossed the line, Du Wuzhu did not take into account their past relationship and abolished the position of the saint.
He didn't care about her infatuation, didn't care about the pain she would suffer after falling from a great height, and didn't care about the resentment and hatred towards Yao Ning and Adu that was growing in her heart day and night.
He never even explained to her, but just watched coldly as she was jealous of the wrong person, saw her being bullied by her fellow disciples after being deposed, driven out of Taohua An, and walked alone on the road of revenge with scars all over her body.
She was not a joke, a joke could still amuse people, she was just a speck of dust in his eyes.
Du Xuandu calmly admitted: "You didn't do anything to me."
She looked at the woman in red in the painting. "But the Sect Master once spent all night looking at this painting. I'm very curious. What is the Sect Master's plan for her?"
Du Wuzhu's peach blossom eyes widened slightly, and then a smile spread across his face: "She is not a chess piece."
Du Xuandu's eyes were slightly cold: "The Brahma Temple was wiped out overnight, and the chaotic energy infected everyone present, but she remained unchanged."
Du Wuzhu shook his head and said, "You don't believe me, but I didn't do anything to her."
As the words fell, distant memories surfaced in my mind.
In the corner of the dim and dilapidated thatched hut, a servile, thin, dark-skinned man's eyes were filled with uncertainty: "Kick her out? But in this cold weather, someone could die..."
A bag of gold fell into the man's hands.
With greed in his eyes, the man hugged the gold bag and nodded repeatedly: "I will drive her away, I will drive her away right now!"
On a busy street corner, several large men were bewildered: "Beating and scolding a four or five-year-old child, this is..."
Heavy snow covered the world, and countless displaced people froze to death in the dim light before dawn.
"Desperate?"
The child with a pale face raised his head in a daze, and a beautiful and delicate face came into view.
"Do you want to take revenge on these people? Your cruel parents, the ones who took away your beloved brother, the passersby who punched and kicked you."
The little girl shivered, and hatred flashed across her eyes for a moment.
"think."
"Very good." The fragrant hand landed on the top of her head, gently touching it before leaving. The pleasant voice continued, "Then kill them, kill them all, and let everyone in the world feel the coldness you feel right now."
The little girl looked confused, as if she was imagining such a scene, and soon frowned.
"Is it not good?"
"not good."
"Why?"
The little girl sniffed and shuddered again, a sickly blush appearing on her cheeks. "As long as they get their comeuppance, that's fine. I don't want everyone to be like me. It's too cold, they can't stand it."
silence.
After a while, the voice said, "I'll wait for you to change your mind."
While hiding in the dark, I thought that maybe I wouldn't be able to wait for her to change her mind.
The child is nearly freezing to death.
What a shame. But it's also so useless.
The clatter of horse hooves came from far away. The noble young master stopped his horse in front of the firewood pile, as if he had discovered something.
After a while, the dirty little girl was carried out. She looked up blankly, like a cowardly puppy that could not resist, and clung tightly to the young master's clothes.
At the end of that memory were his own thoughts.
If such a dirty hand grabbed my clothes, I would crush them into pieces inch by inch, skin and flesh included.
Du Wuzhu did nothing, and the young Yao Ning did not choose his favor.
He looked at Du Xuandu: "You came here to ask me this?"
Du Xuandu shook his head: "Master, I don't care about her anymore."
Du Wuzhu's eyes flickered slightly, and Du Xuandu continued, "I just want to know if the destruction of Brahma Temple was the work of the Sect Master?"
Du Wuzhu's expression turned cold. "So what if I don't have it? So what if I do? Do I have to tell you everything I do?"
Du Xuandu said: "If there is, I will seek true revenge."
Du Wuzhu's gaze shot towards her like an arrow, his brow twitching fiercely, but his voice remained gentle and affectionate: "For whom?"

In the forbidden area of the back mountain, Yao Ning felt more and more uneasy.
Why did the chaotic energy spread, but she didn't change at all?
As Lin Ran said above, there will definitely be a big turmoil in both the righteous and evil worlds. What exactly does the person behind the scenes want to do by instigating this turmoil?
While the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman benefits?
Who is he? Is he from the righteous side or the demonic world?
Various questions swirled in his mind, but what worried Yao Ning the most was——
"As the chaotic energy spreads, spiritual energy and demonic energy are transformed into chaotic energy. The spiritual and demonic energies in the world are becoming increasingly scarce. Doesn't that mean that breaking through the realm and ascending to heaven will become even more impossible?"
Shang Linran was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that Yao Ning cared about this: "In theory, that's right."
Yao Ning's heart sank slightly. With his way to the sky blocked, Chen Qian must be in despair.
After letting go of their knot and reconciling with Shen Qian, the two of them deliberately avoided touching upon the past. Chen Qian was only focused on ascending, and for this reason he was slow to see his true intentions until the critical moment of life and death.
But after seeing his true intentions, will he no longer be obsessed with ascending to the great way?
Yao Ning knew it wasn't.
So she never asked Chen Qian which was more important in his heart, her or the Tao.
If Chen Qian insists on the great way, she will do her best to help him.
But now, the chaotic energy has invaded, the truth is shrouded in mystery, and everything about her is full of doubts. Yao Ning vaguely feels that she may become an obstacle for Shen Qian in what he has been pursuing all his life.
Yao Ning took a deep breath and calmed down: "Senior Brother, I want to see Chen Qian."
For a long while, there was no answer.
Yao Ning looked over in confusion: "Senior Brother?"
Shang Linran was still holding Yao Ning's wrist. He raised his head with a complicated expression, as if he wanted to laugh, but also seemed worried.
"Yao Ning." Shang Linran said cautiously, "You seem to be pregnant."
