Volume 2, Chapter 44: Guardian of the Demon Clan.
In that blue soul, the old man's face was filled with peace and inquiry. A pair of eyes filled with stars looked at Ye Tingmu and nodded, saying, "That's right, I'll wait for you, the guardian of the Demon Ancestor, the highest-level guardian of the demon race."
After hearing these words, Ye Tingmu lost his composure.
Countless possibilities flashed through my mind.
But the only thing he couldn't understand was why he became the protector of the demon clan.
Is it because of the system?
Or because of whom?
There was horror in his eyes, confusion in his heart, and bewilderment on his face.
"Who...are you?"
"I... am a soul, a split soul. My true body is a Kun. You can call me a soul, or you can call me a Kun."
Kunpeng?
An ancient mythical beast.
Is there a being that travels between heaven, earth and the sea?
He was thinking in his mind.
He asked again: "Why am I the protector, or guardian, of the demon race?"
Facing Ye Tingmu's questions.
The blue soul did not keep anyone in suspense.
"Because the will of the river chose you, and the world spirit said you are, so you are?"
After receiving this answer, Ye Tingmu felt even more confused and puzzled.
The master mentioned outside the hall just now and the protector mentioned by the soul in front of him.
The will of the long river, the world spirit.
These words kept floating through my mind, echoing in my sea of consciousness and reverberating in my ears.
The doubts in his mind became even greater.
His eyes became more gloomy and his eyebrows were knitted even tighter.
"I'm sorry, I don't quite understand what you said."
This is the truth. Too much information flooded into his sea of consciousness, making it difficult for him to judge.
It is even more impossible to filter and integrate.
His original purpose for coming here was to get the immortal souls and bones in the immortal tomb.
But now he met Shou and Hun.
Not only did they not hurt themselves, they even said they were waiting for themselves.
Could it be that the existence of Wanshou Mountain is just to wait for my appearance?
It all seems ridiculous.
But it is real.
He believed that as a top-level warrior with a strong soul, there was no point or need to lie to himself.
The blue soul body chuckled.
Said: "No problem, I will answer them one by one for you."
"Thank you very much." He cupped his hands and tried to listen attentively.
He was looking forward to the answer.
The blue soul stroked the shadow of the beard.
"You have three questions in your mind: what is the place? Who is the master? What is the world spirit?"
When Ye Tingmu heard these words, he was shocked again. How did he know?
The soul in front of me is indeed not simple.
He hesitated for a moment, then nodded heavily.
"That's right."
"Haha... the answer to the question is, what place is this? The Demon God Temple. There are four temples, distributed in the four lower realms, one in each realm, and each is guarded by four "guardians", four souls waiting for them."
The Demon God Temple? Ye Tingmu muttered in his heart.
But he still listened very attentively.
"The answer to the second question is, who is the master? The demon race has seventy-two mountains, and the young master has seventy-two. However, there is one person who is superior to them. The master is the dragon ancestor of my demon race, Chaos Yinglong."
When it comes to Yinglong, Ye Tingmu knows something about it.
The one with horns is a Jiao, and the one with claws is a dragon.
Yinglong not only has horns and claws, but also feathers.
Rumor has it that the Qilin and the Phoenix were born from him.
But Hun Dun Ying Long himself had never heard of it.
His eyes unconsciously looked outside the hall.
Where is the dragon statue?
Could it be that in this continent, Chaos Yinglong is the leader of the dragon clan?
And Shou just said that he has its aura.
So who is it?
He fell into thought again.
It’s not the breeze, it’s not the wind.
Could it be Guanqi and Jinghong?
Yes, it can only be them.
The words that Dahei said in Shuiyunjian appeared in his mind again.
Teach them that it is not worthy?
Here, "they" refers to myself, Fenghe, and Qingfeng.
Then it naturally includes watching chess and being amazed by beauty.
He was a little shocked and took a breath.
The Taoist Ancestor, the Demon Lord, and the Demon Ancestor.
The three of them died together, and were all reincarnated in this life.
It was just such a coincidence that I encountered them all.
Wait, Hun just said that it was the world spirit that chose him.
Could it be that all this is controlled by a dumb system?
So all this is not a coincidence, but destined?
At this moment, the blue soul continued to answer the third question.
"The answer to the three questions is, what is a world spirit? It is the master of heaven and earth, the king of the world, the essence of a world, and it is above the Great Dao."
"In the Changhe Realm, three days after the four realms, a boundary spirit evolved. It is both heaven and earth, the evolution of all the ways between heaven and earth, and was born to protect this world."
"The three questions have been answered. Does the protector still have any questions?"
Ye Tingmu took a deep breath and calmed the surging emotions in his heart.
Is the world spirit above the heavenly way?
If what Dahei said is correct.
There is another world outside the Changhe Realm.
Whether it was the Taoist Ancestor, the Demon Lord, or even the Demon Ancestor, all three perished because of the existence outside the sea of boundaries.
There is definitely no long river outside the sea boundary.
The existence of the world spirit is to protect the long river.
He suddenly understood something.
Maybe I was just chosen by the world spirit.
Appeared in Yejia Village.
Saved the four kids.
And these four kids are the three giants who once fell in the past.
He felt a little numb inside.
He could only say that this was too big a deal.
God has given me this system, and it is not a blessing without reason.
This requires you to fight hard.
Then, all this is destined.
Then the demon ancestor, Chaos Yinglong, can only appear between Guanqi and Jinghong.
It took him a long time to calm down.
Although this was just a guess, every time he guessed, it would come true in the end.
So this time...if that's really the case, he really won't be able to digest it for a while.
He shook his head to keep himself awake.
He raised his eyes and looked at the soul in front of him.
"You said you were waiting for me. I bet it wasn't just to answer my three questions. There must be something else you want to tell me. Senior, please feel free to tell me!"
The blue soul shadow heard this.
He was still stroking his beard, but an expression of admiration flashed across his face.
"The protector chosen by the world spirit is indeed an extraordinary person. I hit the nail on the head."
"That's right. I'm waiting for you again because I have something to entrust to you."
As he said this, the old man suddenly bowed deeply to him.
He continued, "That is to ask Your Excellency to protect the reincarnation of the Master and return to the Three Heavens."
really!
This answer was within Ye Tingmu's expectations.
But he also had questions.
The Taoist Patriarch was accompanied by Dahei, the Demon Lord was accompanied by Huang Chao, and they also left behind a magic sword.
Why didn't the Demon Ancestor show any signs at all?
Instead, he hid in the Mountain of Ten Thousand Beasts.
Now that I have found myself, I have found the ancestor of demons.
Why don't you go back with me and protect the Demon Ancestor directly?
He asked in confusion: "Why don't you do it yourself? Why do you need me to do this?"
The blue soul naturally knew what Ye Tingmu was referring to.
He spoke lightly, his tone tinged with sadness.
"The Demon Ancestor has fallen, and the Demon Realm is in chaos. The seventy-two Demon Lords, all of whom have reached the level of Immortal Emperors, have lost the checks and balances of their Lord. They have each declared themselves kings. Now, in the Demon Realm that has been in chaos for ten thousand years, some people hope for the Lord's return, while others hope that the Lord will disappear forever."
"So, it's not that we're unwilling, but some things are beyond our control. The choice of the spirits in the world must be the most correct. I believe that as the Lord's protector, you will definitely be able to clear away obstacles for the Lord in the future and reunite the demon world."
