At the border between the world of cultivation and the world of demons is a vast desert called the "Wuwang Sea". Spiritual energy and demonic energy alternate day and night, so that this deserted sea is barren and without any grass under the constant impact of this alternation.
The only high ground among them is "Zhizhi Mountain".
Breaking branches and swearing an oath, this was the place where the cultivation world and the demon world swore an oath under the witness of the Heavenly Dao in the past to end the fighting that had lasted for tens of millions of years.
It is also the place where Hua Daojun died.
The struggle between Taoism and the devil is one of the ways that Heavenly Dao restrains the living beings of this calamity.
Those who go against heaven's will will face heaven's punishment.
Nine Tribulations Heavenly Thunder...
Even if a wandering immortal suffered this calamity, it would be difficult for him to survive in the world, not to mention that Ling Hua Daojun was already seriously injured at that time.
…
…………
Wei Yi Qiu knew that his master must know the outcome.
But even so, he still went for it without hesitation.
Or maybe Master had made this decision long time ago.
...he entrusted the huge sect to him, and fell into the demon world himself.
…
Taihua Sect is the largest sect in the world of cultivation. As the head of a sect, Wei Yiqiu actually has little free time. But every time this time comes, he will still put everything aside and come to Zhizhi Mountain.
Even this place has nothing left.
Of course, he was not the only one who came here on this day, but the two of them tacitly avoided each other.
However, things seem a little different today.
Wei Yi Qiu had sensed that familiar and disgusting aura since he went up the mountain, and the other party had no intention of hiding it.
Under the moonlight, a young man in black walked out slowly. When he saw him, he nodded and greeted him, "Senior Brother."
But when facing this man, Wei Yi Qiu did not have the slightest smile on his face, and even his already serious expression suddenly turned gloomy.
He did not hide his disgust and said coldly, "You are not worthy of being called that by Your Majesty the Demon Lord."
Xiang Wanya did not show any discomfort with this attitude.
In fact, the hateful relationship between the two has never been one-sided. A more appropriate description is "they are tired of each other".
Xiang Wanya only took a few steps forward, made sure that his figure was exposed in front of Wei Yiqiu, and then stopped.
At first glance, the distance between the two people seemed more like enemies on guard against each other than former fellow disciples. The fact was not much different. They did not fight only because this place was special enough.
Wei Yiqiu, who had been training for a hundred years as the head of Taihua Sect, had developed the ability to smile easily in any situation. But now, he could not help but express his anger, and his tone was sharp and direct. "The Demon Realm is busy, and I'm afraid the Demon Lord has no time to stay here for long. If there is nothing else, you should go back early."
Of course there is something wrong.
If not for this, Xiang Wanya would not stay here.
He explained the reason for staying in the simplest sentence, "The devil is showing signs of revival, and the seal location has been moved."
After he said this, he seemed to be unable to bear being in the same space with the person in front of him, and he disappeared from the spot in an instant.
In fact, if this matter was not of great importance, Xiang Wanya would never be willing to stay here and spend more time with Wei Yiqiu.
The revival of the devil is indeed a big deal, but the more troublesome problem is the second half of the sentence.
The seal's position naturally had no reason to be moved at will. As far as the possibility was concerned, it was simply a miracle that was extremely unlikely. And since this miracle could be achieved now, Wei Yiqiu had to think about a possibility.
——"The Way of Heaven".
The struggle between Taoism and demons has caused all living beings in this world to fall into layers of internal friction. This is the choice of heaven.
Monks go against the will of heaven and seize the fortune of heaven and earth. Their death is actually a benefit to the world and is considered "good" in the judgment of heaven.
This is also why Master had a sudden breakthrough after making that binding oath.
And that sudden heavenly calamity was the "Nine Tribulations Heavenly Thunder", a thunder calamity that was almost equivalent to a death calamity.
The Heavenly Dao of this world is doing its utmost to prevent the Dao and Demons from making peace.
Hundreds of years ago, the master died and his soul disappeared.
But now, I don’t know whether the problem of the Heavenly Demon Seal is the second move of the Heavenly Dao...
Unlike the Demon Realm where the hierarchy is strict and the Demon Lord is supreme, the forces in the cultivation world are more complicated. Upon learning the news, Wei Yi Qiu naturally had to discuss it with others.
…
…………
After everyone left, Sect Master Jiang of the Jiugong Sect stayed alone.
"Yi Qiu,"
The gentle young man did not call him "Master Wei" as he did just now, but directly called him by his name, which meant that they were not discussing any official business in the cultivation world at this moment, but were just showing their concern for the younger generation as an elder, "Have you met?"
Wei Yi Qiu knew who Jiang Yixi was referring to.
Although he did not mention the source of the information just now, since the information was related to the demon world, it was not difficult for Jiang Yixi to guess.
When Wei Yi Qiu heard this question, the smile on his face faded a little, and he agreed without any particular emotion.
Seeing this, Jiang Yixi couldn't help but look a little headache.
He said: "After all, we are brothers from the same sect. Do you intend to stay like this..." and never have any contact with each other until you die?
The smile on Wei Yiqiu's face faded even more, barely staying on a calm surface, "There is no need for me to have any contact with him, right?"
A leader of the cultivation world and a demon lord of the demon world. According to past practices, the two of them would be in a life-and-death relationship.
Jiang Yixi sighed: "You should understand, right? Your master entrusted the follow-up matters to the two of you, and his hope is not limited to this."
Upon hearing this, Wei Yi Qiu showed a look of patience.
The slight smile on his face completely disappeared, and his expression became indifferent.
But even that indifference seemed to be forced, and his tone clearly revealed a fierce and ruthless intention, "I understand, if it weren't for Master's last wish..."
He had already personally taken action to clean up the mess for his master.
Jiang Yixi naturally heard the unfinished meaning in his words, and tried to persuade him a few more times despite the headache, but this relationship had already been in a cold and stagnant state for hundreds of years, and it was obviously not something that could be solved with just a few words. In the end, Jiang Yixi could only leave with a sigh in his heart.
But these knots have to be untied sooner or later...
This is also partly why Wei Yiqiu has been stuck in his realm these years. If he lets it continue, he might become a demon in his heart.
When Jiang Yixi thought of this, he felt a sharp pain in his head.
His good friend left so cleanly, leaving behind two confusing disciples. Although he had not seen Xiang Wanya much in recent years due to his status, he thought that their current situations were not much different.
If this knot is not untied, either the two children will be trapped in it and unable to make any progress in their cultivation, or they will have to kill each other.
He didn't want to witness the two disciples left behind by his friend killing each other.
When Ling Hua was still around, the two of them were still close friends, and their relationship was very good. How come it has become like this now?!
Thanks to this, Jiang Yixi has been traumatized by the idea of taking in disciples over the years, and now he doesn't even have a single disciple. However, helping Ling Hua take care of the two problem children he left behind was enough to consume his energy, and he really didn't have the time to take in any more disciples.
Since you are planning to do that, at least you should calm down your two disciples before leaving, right? !
Did they know they wouldn't just leave it alone?!
...Forget it, let Yanyun persuade me next time.
He is really not suited to this kind of work.
…
…………
Before Jiang Yixi could completely leave the palace due to a headache, he heard Wei Yiqiu speak in a calm voice, "If Master had not accepted him as a disciple, perhaps he would not have to do this."
Jiang Yixi stopped walking and half turned around. The shadow under the eaves divided his face into two halves, light and dark, making the expression on Jiang Yixi's face a little blurry.
After a long silence, Wei Yi Qiu heard a low voice.
It seems like a sigh, but also like not.
"No, this has nothing to do with Xiaoya..."
"If it's him, it will be like this sooner or later."
As he said this, Jiang Yixi couldn't help but think of the swordsman he first met.
——That was indeed a sword cultivator. He had never seen such a sharp sword.
But if you spend some time with him, you will find that he doesn't look like a swordsman at all. He is too gentle at heart.
It seemed that every life that was lost weighed heavily on his heart, whether it was the enemy whose life was taken away, or the fellow Taoist who was not saved in time...
That person is not so fragile that he cannot bear such a weight, but as a friend, I always hope that the other person can have an easier life.
Jiang Yixi once joked, "Just don't be a swordsman," but he never thought that person would bid farewell to his swordsmanship in such a tragic way.
Jiang Yixi didn't know what it felt like to have the path he had been pursuing for hundreds of years collapse in an instant.
But if it were him, he might have died right there and then.
The man stood up again.
Re-enter the path.
…
If it was that person, it would probably be a matter of time before he stopped the conflict between Taoism and Demons and even became an enemy of Heaven for reasons that seemed inexplicable to many cultivators.
Xiaoya, that child...
It's just one of the triggers.
…
…………
Jiang Yixi lowered his eyes to hide his expression.
We have known each other for thousands of years, but that person made the decision on his own without asking for help or even an explanation.
Even the arrangement for Xiaoya is...
That was his direct disciple, would they really attack him just because that child had half of the demon blood in his body? !
That blatant "distrust" was not just from Jiang Yixi. All of them were genuinely angry for a long time, and even decided to teach him a lesson.
However, now it seems...
That person clearly knew the final outcome long ago and had intended to exclude everyone from the beginning.
…
…………
Jiang Yixi didn't say anything more in the end and left in silence.
Wei Yiqiu, who was left behind, did not look any better. He lowered his head and stroked the sect leader's token in his hand.
Of course he hated Xiang Wanya.
No, rather than saying I hate her, it would be more appropriate to say I'm jealous.
They were clearly both master's disciples, but Xiang Wanya was the one who came later.
But it almost occupied the master's entire mind.
...Hide his identity and plan for his future.
He even had to become an enemy of the entire cultivation world because of having such a disciple.
But he was the one who was left alone.
Why?!
How could that person enjoy this kind of favoritism unscrupulously and without realizing it? !
Wei Yi Qiu tightly grasped the seal of the leader in his hand with a gloomy expression.
——But this is all he has.
