Chapter 82 The True Purpose of Haotian Tower
The Green Ghost King appeared in front of his brother in the blink of an eye, and swung the blade in his hand, but was blocked by the opponent's blackened arm. A green wind and waves burst out, and the stone pillar under his feet shattered instantly.
However, this blow only caused a slight bleeding line on his brother's arm, which showed that his body was extremely strong.
After the attack, the two men disappeared at the same time, and then appeared on another stone pillar, bursting out with powerful energy again.
The Green Ghost King's ghost power is green wind, and his brother's power is black wind. Their speeds are so fast that they cannot be distinguished by the eyes and can only be perceived by spiritual sense.
The surrounding stone pillars were constantly shattered, and the air waves hit the blood pool, causing a wave.
A blue and black whirlwind formed where the two men fought. Neither of them used magic, but instead used their respective ghost powers to strengthen themselves, allowing their physical bodies to display power comparable to that of magic.
This kind of fighting style should be unique to the cultivators with strong physical bodies in ancient times. This is the first time he has seen fighting with the physical body in this world. He thought that cultivators all fought with magic weapons and flying swords, and physical confrontation only appeared in acquired warriors.
Just as he was watching the Green Ghost King fight and learning his fighting style, suddenly a demon dragon rushed out of the blood pool behind him, and when it saw Zhou An, it roared and rushed towards him.
Zhou An took out another bottle of pills and handed it to the old demon in the bamboo hat and said, "Let me see your true strength."
“Yes.” The old demon in the bamboo hat took it and swallowed a pill. Soon he felt the long-lost spiritual energy surging in his body, which turned into demonic power and flowed through his meridians.
The evil dragon rushed over and opened its bloody mouth to swallow the two people on the stone pillar.
Zhou An watched motionlessly. When the two were about to be touched, the old demon in the bamboo hat thrust out the sword. The blade actually shot out a hundred-meter-long sword light, piercing through the upper palate of the magic dragon's mouth and out from the back of the head.
However, the magic dragon had absorbed too much demonic energy and did not die even after receiving a fatal attack, and continued to charge forward.
Just as Zhou An was about to take action, the old demon in the bamboo hat waved his wrist again. Sword lights flashed continuously and the body of the approaching demon dragon was cut into pieces and fell off.
Although the body of the magic dragon was destroyed, countless demon souls flew out of its body and circled around them, trying to rush into their bodies and take away their flesh.
The old demon in the bamboo hat frowned and said, "My lord, the demons' bodies are refined here, and their demon souls are left behind. If someone invades, their souls will be immediately corroded, and they will soon become completely demons."
Zhou An raised his hand, and the Sun Pearl floated above his head, releasing the sun's true fire to protect the two of them, preventing these evil spirits from getting close.
On the other side, a black and green whirlwind exploded, and the brother flew out and hit a stone pillar, almost breaking the thick stone pillar.
At this time, the Green Ghost King roared and flew over, with the blade piercing his brother's heart and stabbing into the stone pillar on his back.
"Brother, I will continue to walk the rest of the way." The Green Ghost King gritted his teeth and shouted.
The brother suddenly looked up, and the devil soul flew out of his seven orifices and entered the body of the Green Ghost King.
"Not good!" exclaimed the old demon in the bamboo hat.
Green Ghost King knew the consequences of the devil entering his body, so he drew his sword and flew onto the stone pillar. He watched his brother's body fall into the pool of blood, looked up to the sky and howled, then smiled at Zhou An and said, "Thank you, Master, for your help. My wish to see my brother has been fulfilled, but I cannot fulfill my promise to become the Master's servant god and follow him forever."
The Green Ghost King suddenly raised his knife and stabbed it into his own heart. The demonic soul in his body flew out through the wound, but the surrounding demonic energy still invaded his body and a demon seed appeared in his body.
Zhou An said: "The so-called Tao is to master the power between heaven and earth, which belongs to external power. The devil is to control the seven emotions and six desires, so as to stimulate one's own power. The Tao is to understand the heaven, while the devil is to understand oneself.
Don't resist, accept yourself, the devil is a part of you. If you can control it, you will go further. If you can't, you can only stay here forever and become a demon soul without consciousness."
The old demon in the bamboo hat also shouted: "Green Ghost King, don't you want freedom? Compared with freedom, how difficult is it to control yourself!"
"Control your emotions! The devil is a part of you!"
The Green Ghost King murmured, took a deep breath and closed his eyes.
The blood from his heart was still flowing. Because the demonic energy around him was thick, he inhaled more and more demonic energy. The demon souls circling around him were all waiting for the opportunity to enter his body again.
The old demon in the bamboo hat asked doubtfully, "Sir, can you really control the power of the devil?"
"You have been practicing for so many years, and even you have doubts. No wonder people outside are so afraid of demons. In fact, there are no demons in the world. It's just that cultivators regard the seven emotions and six desires as demons. The so-called righteous path is to cut off one's own desires and achieve a calm mind, so that one can better comprehend the way of heaven.
Little do people know that these seven emotions and six desires are also part of the way of heaven. They are a test for all intelligent creatures, and also a gift. The power from the soul is no weaker than the power between heaven and earth."
Zhou An gained insights into the mystery after he was possessed by the devil, through meditation with Hua Wu Yue. With the help of the Heavenly Demon Book, he has a deeper understanding of demons and is naturally no longer afraid of them. Perhaps Taoist Taiyi has also discovered this secret, which is why he practices both Taoism and magic.
It’s just that Master Taiyi chose the wrong method and was involved in too many consequences, which is why he was deserted by his friends and relatives and was besieged by so many people.
The old demon in the bamboo hat listened to the lecture like a student, remembering what Zhou An said, even though it broke his understanding of Taoism.
At this time, the Green Ghost King suddenly let out a long roar towards the sky. Not only did a green whirlwind appear on his body, but black flames also appeared. The wind helped the fire, and the power exploded, sweeping up the surrounding stone pillars and turning them into powder. Even the blood pool below was affected, forming a vortex.
The surrounding demon souls screamed as they were sucked in by the black fire and green wind, burning and dissipating.
The whirlwind disappeared, and a figure flashed in front of Zhou An. The Green Ghost King knelt on one knee in front of him and called out respectfully: "Greetings, Master. Please give me a name."
Zhou An was puzzled, and the old demon in the bamboo hat immediately explained, "When you officially become a servant god, the master will give you a new name, and everything you had before must be abandoned to become the master's exclusive one."
Zhou An nodded, thought for a moment and said, "Then I'll call you Mi Luo."
As soon as he finished speaking, the seal of serving the gods appeared on Miro's forehead.
Seeing that Mi Luo could really control the power of the devil, the old demon in the bamboo hat was full of admiration for Zhou An. He took off his bamboo hat, knelt down and bowed his head, saying: "I am also willing to become the master's servant god, follow him forever, and never betray him. If I break my oath, my soul and body will be destroyed."
Zhou An originally wanted to take them in, so he nodded and said, "You are a white ape demon, so from now on you will be called Bai Lao."
Similarly, a seal of serving the gods appeared on Old Bai’s forehead.
After the two of them got up, Zhou An said, "Let's go. We've been delayed here for too long."
The three of them flew towards the center of the teleportation array. Since two of them still had some strength left, they no longer needed Zhou An to carry them.
Entering the seventh floor, there is an ancient town. They appeared on the rooftop in the middle of the town. As soon as they appeared, beauties of various races appeared around them. Each of them was a rare and stunning woman in the world, and these people were holding gold, silver, jewelry, peerless skills, and fairy treasures in their hands.
The Green Ghost King and the old demon in the bamboo hat beside him showed happy expressions and walked down the rooftop.
At this time, a beautiful woman came up to Zhou An and saluted, saying, "Welcome to Yunmeng Space, sir. Everything here is a reward for you, including money, treasures, and skills. Any woman here can serve you at any time if you like."
Zhou An frowned, closed his eyes and then opened his spiritual pupils. The scenery in front of him changed. He was now on a stone platform with a mirror hanging above it and a bell next to it, making pleasant sounds.
The mirror reflects the human heart, and the bell induces the most desired illusion in the heart. There should be very few people in this world who can withstand such temptation.
Zhou An was certain that without the magical eyes, he might not be able to get through the illusion.
He first confirmed his sign-in and obtained the Heavenly Demon Book: Seven Emotions, which introduced the system. This volume was about comprehending the seven emotions, stimulating the body's potential, and strengthening the physical body, true essence, and primordial spirit.
After clicking to learn the skill, the two people who are trapped in the illusion will be carried towards the teleportation array in front of you.
The area of this floor is much smaller. It is just a stone platform. There are five other demons around it, and they have been immersed in the illusion for who knows how long.
After seeing this, Zhou An was roughly certain that the Haotian Tower was not used to trap people, but was used for trials. However, he didn't know why it later fell into the hands of Zhengyi Dao and became a treasure to imprison demons.
Thanks to [book friend 20190813190744959] for the 100 reward, [quite regrettable] for the 100 reward, [☆Wind of Love☆] for the 100 reward, [book friend 161125075736839] for the 100 reward, [changing the nickname to v is so expensive] for the 100 reward, [book friend 090806172457551] for the 100 reward, and [Star God Xuantian] for the 100 reward.
Some book friends have questioned the emperor in this book. They are right. They compared it with historical emperors and found that many of his behaviors are indeed inconsistent.
Of course, I have read all the information about these, but I personally think that since this is the Emperor of Heaven, the emperor on earth should not be used as a standard for measurement.
Moreover, the power system is completely different. After the end of the immortal world, there must be immortals. These people's military strength is comparable to that of a country or even a world. It is inappropriate to measure them with the way ordinary emperors do things.
Book lovers who read carefully should also know that the cultivation of immortals in this book is a little different from other fairy tales, that is, the emphasis of cultivation is on cultivating the mind (of course, there are definitely different understandings, we just see different ways of expressing it).
Therefore, in this book, every time there is a natural disaster, one must undergo a test from one's inner demons.
In fact, this book is partly based on the content of The Legend of Shushan, with the addition of cause and effect, and of course the author's own understanding of Xianxia, to create a system. Otherwise, it would just be a copycat.
Finally, it will be on the shelves tomorrow. I am sure readers will give me the first order. Ten chapters will be released tomorrow. After it is on the shelves, there will be at least three chapters per day.
