Chapter 368: The evil guests come one after another

The banners of ten thousand demons were formed, and strange visions spread over ten thousand miles.

The Seven Great Saints are also a prominent force among the demons. No less than one million demons have been sacrificed in the Great Freedom Heaven. There are also six real gods who have refined them into a banner, which is extremely terrifying.

When the precious banner was first revealed, everyone from the ninth heaven to the deep sea felt its response and saw strange phenomena one after another.

The flying dragon in the sky scares the phoenix, and the illusory shadow of Kunpeng and black tortoise swims in the sea.

Even the Nine Mountains across Liangzhou could not help but notice this scene.

On the collapsed mountaintop, Zheng Fa stood beside Master Mingde and others, looking into the distance. Seeing this, he was confused and worried.

"this……"

Yao Chi's incarnation of the god looked towards Mingde's abbot. Mingde's abbot had the highest level of cultivation and his inheritance of the Taishang Dao was also the oldest. He was probably the only one who could understand what had happened here.

"Daoguo..." The head of Mingde knew, "The Great Free Demon Ancestor wants to attain the Dao Fruit of the Demon King?"

After hearing this, Zheng Fa naturally thought of what Mu Qingyan had said before about the Great Free Demon King.

By now, he had some guesses about Daoguo——

There are at least two aspects to the Tao fruit: one is the method, and the other is the audience.

The Dharma may be unique, but its audience is surprisingly broad:

For example, the immortal sect, those who seem to have practiced this method, are considered one type.

To this Great Free Demon Ancestor, his bloodline is his audience.

Or maybe the power of incense in the Nine Mountains Realm also seems to be related.

Thinking of this, Zheng Fa's heart was moved, and he thought of some modern legends:

The so-called establishment of religions, creation of human beings, preaching and deification, are surprisingly consistent with the characteristics of the mysterious Taoist fruits in this regard.

This thought only flashed through his mind, and Zheng Fa heard Master Mingde say, "But...how did the Great Free Demon Ancestor do it?"

"The Demon King's Dao Fruit has long since disappeared. The major forces are hindering each other in spreading the Dao among the demon race, and even..."

Master Mingde hadn't finished speaking, but Zheng Fa understood it - the disunity of the demon clan seemed to be a deliberate act of the Xuanwei Five Sects.

He raised his head and exchanged a glance with Senior Sister Zhang beside him.

Now, thinking about the seemingly outrageous biological experiments of the ancestors of the Great Freedom Demon Sect, they no longer found it funny. On the contrary, I am afraid... this is the ambition of the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor! Between heaven and earth, those who are not human and have achieved enlightenment can be considered monsters. However, the monster race attaches great importance to bloodline. Under the suppression of the five Xuanwei sects, they act independently and it is difficult to coordinate.

If the Dao fruit is related to a unique method, then think of it this way:

After countless years of biological experiments, the Great Free Demon Ancestor actually found a way to merge his own blood with other bloods? From then on, the demon race had a set of truly universal methods? This had a huge impact on the demon race. To a certain extent, only the demon race with this set of methods could be called a race.

The Demon King's Dao Fruit probably came from this. As for those demons who were sacrificed in blood, it was probably just the last step, and not even a very important step.

If this guess comes true, the plan of the Great Free Demon Ancestor can be said to be not far away.

Zheng Fa's heart was in turmoil, and Master Mingde's face was also uncertain, as if he was surprised and doubtful. Suddenly, four purple talismans flew from the sky and fell into the hands of Master Mingde and his four men.

The four of them bowed to receive the imperial edict and looked at each other, surprisingly, they had expected it.

Zheng Fa knew something had happened, and sure enough, he heard the head monk Mingde say, "In this case, we can only make long-term plans."

...Meaning, are you ready to run away?

Master Mingde seemed to see his doubts and said:

"The sect has passed on the message that the Great Free Demon Ancestor wants to condense the Demon King Dao Fruit, and we don't need to interfere."

"His focus in the future should be on the demon race. It has little to do with my Xuanwei Five Sects."

This slightly relieved Zheng Fa's doubts. He then heard Xie Qingxue say, "Daoguo is not easy to kill. Now that he holds the Demon King Daoguo, he may be even stronger."

This reason is very realistic.

What puzzled Zheng Fa was that everyone was fighting to the death at the beginning, but now they seemed to be calling it a day. The changes were too fast! The head of Mingde sighed, "We, the immortal sect, still value the human race the most. The ancestors can't waste their strength with the Great Free Demon Ancestor... This Great Free Demon Ancestor, who is retreating by advancing, is actually jumping out of the chess game."

Does this mean... the Great Free Demon Ancestor has developed new technology, found a new blue ocean, and suddenly has no competitors? Xie Qingxue nodded at the side: "Daoguo is difficult to kill. Now that the Great Free Demon Ancestor has resurrected, we are already at a disadvantage. If he wants to become a demon king, I'm afraid he won't want to provoke us."

Things changed too quickly. It was only now that Zheng Fa finally understood the thinking of the Five Xuanwei Sects - no fighting based on personal feelings, only considering gains and losses, and even the so-called good and evil were not within the consideration of the leaders of the five sects.

After assessing the situation, he was actually prepared to let the Great Free Demon Ancestor go.

"The Demon King Dao Fruit... No one from the Five Sects wants it?"

"My ancestors have tried, but it is difficult to achieve the Tao fruit, and we have no clue."

Yan Wushuang spoke up at this moment, and he seemed to be confused as well: "Are we just going to watch the Great Free Demon Ancestor recover his strength?"

The head monk Mingde smiled, and seemed to have some emotion: "When it comes to dealing with Dao Fruits, it doesn't matter what we think..."

Master Tongming had a gloomy face. If he had to say that he had a grudge against the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor, even his Tongming Mountain would have exploded. That was a deep blood feud.

"What's more, the demon race has its own background. It is not so easy for the Great Free Demon Ancestor to unify the demon race and truly become the Demon King."

"Since he couldn't snatch the Qingping Sword and Qingjing Bamboo, he will not easily provoke us in the future if he wants to achieve the Tao Fruit of the Demon King. This matter will not do him any good."

Yan Wushuang still had a puzzled look on his face, and seemed to want to say something, but Xie Qingxue glared at him and he dared not say anything else. He suddenly thought of something and looked at Zheng Fa with worry on his face.

The Five Xuanwei Sects have fled, where should the Nine Mountains Realm go?

If he stayed here, with the interest of the Great Freedom Demon Ancestor in him and his fear and desire for Qingjing Bamboo, he would probably not be able to live in peace, and might even face a serious crisis.

Now that the Great Free Demon Ancestor has achieved the fruit of the Demon King, he is even more powerful than before.

As one side gains while the other loses, the situation is not optimistic.

What's more, Qingjing Bamboo also attracts Leiyin Temple!

The previous rejection of the Supreme Daoist Master Mingde now seemed hasty.

Master Mingde seemed to have thought of this as well. He glanced at Zheng Fa and said nothing.

Yao Chi Huashen and others also looked at Zheng Fa with strange expressions.

…

"Cheng Kong, go find Zheng Fa!"

As soon as everyone separated, Master Chengkong heard the voice transmission from Master Mingde. He looked up in surprise and saw Master Mingde looking at him with a somewhat anxious expression: "Tell him that if he is willing to join my Supreme Dao, my conditions will remain unchanged."

"..." Master Chengkong was puzzled, "Master, why didn't you say anything just now?"

"Zheng Fa is young and arrogant after all. If I ask him on the spot, I'm afraid he won't agree because of his face."

Abbot Mingde spoke first.

Master Chengkong was stunned, his expression full of doubt: "Zheng Fa... is he a person who cares about face?"

"...Besides, he should have thought it through now. It's good to have ambition, but he has to choose a backer between the Demon Sect and the Five Sects. His current cultivation is low, but his treasures are powerful, and he has the skills to cultivate the spiritual roots of heaven and earth. Without the protection of a large sect, he will have a hard time moving forward in the future."

This made a lot of sense, and Master Chengkong nodded after listening to it.

"But... First Master, if that's the case, why don't we wait for him to come and beg us?"

"..." The head of Mingde glanced at him and cursed, "Which of these troubles of Jiushan Sect was not caused by my Supreme Summoning Order?"

“……” Master Chengkong pursed his lips. He really didn’t know how to respond to this question.

He then heard Master Mingde say, "Anything else, you want to ask us for help?"

"Do you think Yao Chi and Hao Ri Mountain will wait until the day when he comes to beg us?"

"ah?"

…

Yan Wushuang paced back and forth in his room, his expression changing. Finally, he could no longer resist and walked to the yard. He pushed open the door of the senior sister and shouted, "Senior sister!"

Xie Qingxue opened her eyes and looked at him quietly without saying a word.

Yan Wushuang's voice suddenly dropped.

"Let Zheng Fa come to our Tianhe Sect..."

Xie Qingxue didn't seem surprised when she heard what he said, as if she had known he had this idea. She stood up and shook her head gently, saying, "Our Tianhe Sect is different from the Taishang Dao. The inheritance in the sect is fixed, as you know..."

"Um……"

"Not to mention, it is impossible for the sect to trust outsiders like the Supreme Dao." Xie Qingxue laughed again, "Even the Supreme Dao may not be able to trust outsiders."

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Yan Wushuang lowered his head.

"Besides, have you ever thought about Zheng Fa's character..."

Yan Wushuang was stunned by Xie Qingxue’s words.

"Zheng Fa..."

"Zheng Fa seems humble, but he is actually arrogant..." Xie Qingxue's eyes were as fast as lightning, and it seemed that she had thought about this matter for a long time.

"I can guess why he doesn't go to Taishangdao."

"My Tianhe Sect... I'm afraid there's no room for him."

After hearing this, Yan Wushuang muttered unconvincedly: "I can do this..."

"The headmaster is not your father, why don't you try again?"

Yan Wushuang shut up.

Xie Qingxue looked at him and shook her head, then said: "I recognize Zheng Fa's talent, but my Tianhe Sect is different after all. I'm afraid it won't be a good thing for him to join our Tianhe Sect..."

She thought of something and stopped herself, and spoke after a long while: "If you value his talent, and you already have a good relationship with him, why do you have to force him to be your disciple?"

“…”

Yan Wushuang stammered, and Xie Qingxue continued, "Being friends with outsiders will never be as fast as improving your own cultivation... If you really want to have more talents in the sect, you might as well study the sect's secrets more."

Yan Wushuang whispered, "Isn't this just to comprehend the master's secret method?"

"Um?"

Yan Wushuang saw Xie Qingxue was stunned at first, then seemed to be thinking about something, and felt bad, so he quickly said: "Senior Sister! I understand! I will go back to my room to practice!"

After saying that, he turned around and walked away, but heard a cold shout from behind: "Stop!"

Yan Wushuang froze and slowly turned his head.

"Explain to me what you mean..." Xie Qingxue looked at this junior brother with a stern expression, "Will you be good to Qingping Sword?"

“…”

"What do you mean, you are comprehending the ancestor's secret method?"

Yan Wushuang's expression became paler and paler.

"What did you do in the Nine Mountains Realm?"

Watching the senior sister's hand slowly grasping the hilt of the sword, Yan Wushuang fell to his knees and said loudly: "Senior sister, I didn't even have time to reveal any of our inheritance!"

"You! Still! Dare!!"

Xie Qingxue spoke each word with gritted teeth, the energy from the Qingping sword in her hand was so violent that it couldn't be suppressed.

"Really! I wanted to give it to him, but he didn't want it!"

Yan Wushuang wailed.

"Give it to me, don't miss a word, make it clear!"

Xie Qingxue looked at the Qingping Sword that was lying quietly in her hand, and recalled the feeling of being helpless that day. She looked at the junior brother in front of her with murderous intent in her tone.

…

Outside the Nine Mountains Realm, Master Chengkong watched Zheng Fa send Yao Chi Huashen out the door. The two of them were talking and laughing, and seemed to be extremely familiar with each other, which made him anxious.

As soon as Master Mingde opened his mouth, he immediately understood.

In the past, only their Tai Shang Dao accepted disciples to bring their skills with them, while the other five Xuanwei sects always preferred to train their own students.

But Zheng Fa is different! Although Zheng Fa's talent is already amazing enough.

The question now is - if Zheng Fa is recruited, there will be one more spiritual root of heaven and earth in the sect! Even with the technology that can cultivate spiritual roots of heaven and earth in the Nine Mountains, who knows if they can produce the next one? For the Nine Mountains Sect, holding the Pure and Quiet Bamboo is a bit like a child holding gold in a busy city.

But who wouldn't want to take home a doll that spits out gold ingots? Now, all he had to do was impress Zheng Fa!

Is there any better deal than this?

Zheng Fa was still expressing his gratitude: "I would also like to thank Master Lingxia for this incense and rosary..."

“To be honest, you’ve saved my life twice…” Lingxia, the monk from Yaochi, smiled sweetly and adorably. She also saw Master Chengkong coming here, and said casually, “This incense rosary is produced by Leiyin Temple. Yaochi and Leiyin Temple are both in Xizhou, so we have some face…”

"If you are interested, enter my Yao Chi, and you will have more of this in the future!"

At this point, she added: "Even if it's the problem with Qingjing Bamboo, I, Yao Chi, can also help you deal with Leiyin Temple."

Zheng Fa bowed to Master Lingxia of Yao Chi, indicating that he would consider it carefully. He watched the other party leave before turning to look at Master Chengkong.

"Master Lingxia, why didn't you come to Qingjingzhu to say thank you for saving your life before you met him?"

The first thing Master Cheng Kong said was to sow discord.

Zheng Fa shook his head. The two gods from Yao Chi and Hao Ri Mountain had just been to the Nine Mountains Realm. Zheng Fa also understood clearly that what they coveted most was the technology to cultivate Qingjing Bamboo.

Of course, Qingjingzhu and the others also want it.

"Moreover, Yaochi has always been a place where female immortals are respected... male cultivators have a lower status."

Seeing that he still didn't speak, Master Chengkong spoke again.

Zheng Fa glanced at him, then suddenly laughed. He took out a storage bag, pulled out five incense beads from it, and said, "I know the truth, but..."

“They give so much!”

Master Chengkong pinched his storage bag which contained two incense beads, and for a moment, he actually felt a little inferior.

When he wanted to say something else, a murderous figure came over from the other side of Tongming Mountain, crossing the ruined mountains.

Xie Qingxue relied on the Qingping sword and looked at Zheng Fa as if she was looking at a thief.

"Well...Xie Xianzi," Master Chengkong was stunned for a moment after seeing her expression, and tactfully advised, "A forced melon is not sweet."
