Another crooked path...
For these four words, the high-level cultivators in the world of immortal cultivation were simply gnashing their teeth in hatred.
This time's phantom was different from the last one. Although she was facing them last time, they could feel that no matter what they said, she could not hear it.
And this time, they could feel it—she could hear it.
"You are talking nonsense again! You are a demon, and you established a demon sect but you don't even know how to let your disciples practice well. You use some strange books to fool them all day long. You are the one who follows the evil ways!" A Nascent Soul cultivator was furious.
"We're opening up secret realms to low-level cultivators, so how can that be considered an evil sect? You, a demon, are only capable of spouting nonsense and spreading rumors and slander!" the Tiandao Sect's leader shouted. "You've established a demonic cult and are leading people astray. We won't interfere with you, and you shouldn't interfere with us righteous cultivators either!"
He really hated Sang Baizhi, who had brought shame upon him and now could not even hold his head up.
only……
The last incident had left him with a psychological trauma, so his words were still polite and non-provocative.
Yes, what does it have to do with her that the righteous monks have opened up the secret realm?
Ask her to meddle in other people’s business!
Bai Zhi still had no expression, but she had obviously heard it. She looked at the entrance to the secret realm and spoke calmly.
"Of course, what you Taoists do has nothing to do with me, but if you are harming the interests of everyone in the world of immortal cultivation, then you are also harming the interests of my Demonic Sect. I can't let you destroy the entire world of immortal cultivation!"
Everyone: “???”
How could they be linked to the destruction of the entire cultivation world?!
Xuanyuan Han's face was gloomy, and his voice seemed to be filled with cold air: "Sang Baizhi, then tell me, how did the opening of our secret realm destroy the entire world of immortal cultivation?"
Bai Zhi pushed her glasses up again, her eyes gleaming with a sharpness that made even the lenses seem to turn cold.
"You are ignorant and foolish, and you refuse to listen to others' advice. If you continue like this, your entire world of immortal cultivation will eventually be destroyed. Xuanyuan Han, you should be thankful for the emergence of the Demon Cult, otherwise, you will all be sinners of this world!"
Xuanyuan Han: “???”
Without waiting for them to say anything, Bai Zhi continued, "Do you know where spiritual energy comes from? Is it generated by heaven and earth, nurtured naturally? Is the spiritual energy of the entire cultivation world a constant or a variable? Will it decrease, or will it increase? What is its source, and what will it eventually become?"
Everyone: “…”
The high-level monk had a confused look on his face.
Those low-level monks who were waiting to enter the secret realm also had confused expressions on their faces.
What...is the problem?
"You have never thought about these problems, so facing the increasingly thin spiritual energy, the collapsing secret realms, the increasingly difficult cultivation, and the future without ascension... you are helpless!" Bai Zhi's eyes showed ridicule.
If we don’t even explore the mysteries of the world, how can we deal with the crises facing this world?
Any world will think about crises in advance. In order to avoid destruction, they constantly think about solutions, discover problems and solve them.
But it is different in the world of cultivating immortals. Without ascension, the Nascent Soul is the most respected.
When spiritual energy becomes less, use a spirit gathering array to gather the spiritual energy in your own sect and just take care of yourself.
Cultivation is becoming increasingly difficult, and resources are becoming increasingly scarce. So, go grab them! Fight and gain a chance to advance!
Is this a solution?
This is accelerating the destruction of the world and making the road narrower and narrower!
Her ridicule was like a club hitting the high-level monk's heart.
Xuanyuan Han asked: "Then do you have a solution? Can you solve it?"
"Of course I can!" Bai Zhi raised her head with confidence and pride, "You will all join the Demon Cult sooner or later, because that is the only way!"
"Nonsense!" the head of Ziying Pavilion shouted angrily. "Then let me ask you, what does this have to do with me opening up the secret realm? If you want to use this as an excuse, at least have a basis for it!"
Bai Zhi raised her hands, clapped them, and pointed at him: "Very good, then I will explain it to you who are ignorant and stupid."
She withdrew her hand and pushed up her glasses. "Spiritual energy is the reason why there are cultivators in this world. Spiritual energy is nurtured by heaven and earth, and its origin is untraceable. However, I have confirmed through experiments that cultivators consume spiritual energy, while spiritual plants produce it. Where spiritual plants are dense, the spiritual energy is even richer!"
As soon as the words fell, some monks began to murmur:
“It seems like this…”
"The spiritual energy in the plantation is always richer!"
"Is spiritual energy released by spiritual plants?"
"Is that so? Why has no one ever thought of this before? If we plant a lot of spiritual plants, could we have a natural place for cultivation one day?"
"It's not true either. Demons are the best at lying!"
…
The Nascent Soul cultivator was knowledgeable and immediately questioned—
"Nonsense! The place with the most concentrated spiritual energy is clearly the spiritual vein!"
All the major sects are built on spiritual veins, and spiritual stones are also produced from the spiritual veins. They occupy the spiritual veins and rely on the spiritual veins to gradually prosper.
However, in the past ten thousand years, the spiritual energy has been declining. Even the spiritual energy in the spiritual veins has become thinner, and the output of spiritual stones has decreased year by year, and the competition has become more and more fierce.
Their three major sects have been fighting over spiritual veins and spiritual mines, and their relationship has become increasingly unfriendly over the years. They can only barely maintain the face of the three major sects and continue to fight privately.
Of course, Changtian Immortal Sect has always been the only dominant sect before.
Now, because of Sang Baizhi's appearance, they are united, even more united than ever before!
Bai Zhi sneered at this, "If you hadn't told me, I would have forgotten. Spiritual veins aren't born with spiritual energy. Instead, they're created over a long period of time by constantly absorbing spiritual energy in a rich spiritual environment. Because so much spiritual energy has accumulated, it appears to be particularly rich. But in reality, the spiritual energy in a spiritual vein also comes from the spiritual energy released by spiritual plants."
"Originally, even if the spiritual energy in the air decreased, as long as the spiritual vein was still there, it could have lasted for many, many years. But you only see the benefits of the spiritual vein, frantically digging for spiritual stones to use in cultivation, causing the spiritual energy in the spiritual vein to become increasingly scarce. The minerals that can be transformed into spiritual stones are also difficult to evolve due to the lack of spiritual energy!"
Bai Zhi took a deep breath and said sharply, "Not only are you digging up spiritual plants, reducing the amount of spiritual energy produced, but you're also wantonly digging up spiritual stones and destroying spiritual veins. You're simply destroying the environment while cutting off people's escape routes! If this isn't a devious path, what else could it be?"
This set of theories appeared before the public for the first time, and it was also the first time that everyone heard of it.
So much so that for a moment, the monks who heard it were a little dazed.
turn out to be……
Is it what they have been doing that is making it increasingly difficult for them to practice?
But what's wrong with them practicing for their own benefit?
"You——" Someone was obviously extremely angry.
"Are you angry out of shame? But I haven't mentioned the matter of you opening the secret realm. It's too early for you to get angry now. Wait until I finish talking." Bai Zhi glanced at the man and said lightly.
At this moment, whether it was the high-level cultivators or the low-level cultivators waiting at the entrance to the secret realm, they were all extremely quiet.
I said so much before just to explain to them the source of spiritual energy. What does it have to do with their entry into the secret realm today?
Bai Zhi pushed up her glasses——
"Secret realms also belong to this world, but because of different spatial nodes, they are hidden in another spatial node. They always belong to this world. The spiritual energy they generate will also be fed back to this world. You will store the entrance to the secret realm in a medium, such as this mirror in the Kunshan Secret Realm."
As she spoke, everyone's eyes turned to the mirror.
"Controlling this mirror means controlling the entrance to the Kunshan Secret Realm. This is your way of making profits, but now, this way is endangering the entire world of immortal cultivation! Once the entrance is controlled, the spiritual energy is blocked in the Kunshan Secret Realm and cannot get out. As there are fewer and fewer secret realms, the sources of spiritual energy in the world of immortal cultivation are getting smaller and smaller. You advance through practice and waste it lavishly. How can the spiritual energy become richer?" Bai Zhi questioned.
Xuanyuan Han, holding the mirror, said with a sullen face, "This belongs to the three major sects. It's a secret realm passed down by the three major sects. Why can't we control it? What you said is completely nonsense!"
"Yes, you have robbed a piece of land from the world of immortal cultivation, sealed it up, and occupied it, and then you have let people in generation after generation to plunder it. Every cultivator who enters is afraid that they will take less than others, so you plunder the land like a geese passing by, and the spiritual energy in the secret realm is getting worse and worse! It takes a hundred years to grow a hundred-year spiritual plant, and a thousand-year spiritual plant needs a thousand years, but you let a group of cultivators in almost every ten years! Do you know why the secret realm collapsed?" Bai Zhi asked again.
She answered herself, "Because you have plundered it countless times, the spiritual plants have been greatly reduced, and all the natural treasures have been taken away. The balance inside has been constantly disrupted. In the end, even the spiritual energy was not enough to support this spatial node, so it collapsed. An entire secret realm was destroyed just like that!"
After she finished speaking, the low-level cultivator looked a little confused.
Most of them are much younger than the high-level monks, and many of them have never even entered the secret realm. Their knowledge of the secret realm only comes from legends and records.
Most legends and records only record the magic of the secret realm. Who has ascended to heaven overnight and gained opportunities because of the secret realm... Who cares about how the secret realm has been destroyed?
But it is different for high-level cultivators, especially Nascent Soul cultivators, they have also witnessed the collapse of the secret realm!
The pupils of several Yuanying cultivators of Tiandao Sect shrank.
One of the secret realms of their Tiandao Sect was destroyed!
But at that time, they thought that those disciples had done something inside, which led to the destruction of the secret realm, so those disciples were naturally repeatedly interrogated by them.
But apart from digging for treasure and seizing treasure, they didn't do anything different from usual, and they couldn't find the reason at all, so they could only let it go.
After hearing what Sang Baizhi said, they suddenly understood—
It's not that they do something different, it's that they do the same thing!
Only by repeating the treasure hunt and treasure robbing countless times will their secret realm collapse!
Sang Baizhi's views and perspectives are something they have never thought about, but using her theory to look at them can smoothly explain some of the things that have happened!
Could it be...
Is everything she said really true?!
As soon as this idea came out, they immediately felt creepy, shook their heads and refused to believe it!
Xuanyuan Han also froze for a while, pursed his lips, and said coldly: "You are just speculating, there is no basis for it!"
Bai Zhi's expression was calm, and the shadow and Xuanyuan Han looked at each other—
"Then let them in. I went in the last time the Kunshan Secret Realm opened, and I still remember the scene inside. It was already in danger. I calculated before coming here that if you let so many people in, the Kunshan Secret Realm would be destroyed in three months, not just six months. You can try it and verify my statement."
She spread her hands, looking calm.
The pair of gold-rimmed glasses with a cold glow, with a sense of indifference and sharpness, made people unable to help but believe——
This woman, she doesn't bother to lie to them!
Xuanyuan Han hesitated for a moment.
This time, it was the turn of the low-level monks to have opinions—
"Demon Lord, these are all your speculations and may not be true. Moreover, the things in the secret realm are opportunities for Taoist cultivation. For thousands of years, others have been able to take them, so why can't we?"
As the first person spoke, the second and third followed, and soon, the discussion began -
"Yes, if we don't enter the secret realm, how can we get the opportunity?"
"The things in the secret realm are originally opportunities for cultivators. If we don't take them, they will just stay there and be taken away by others."
"Yes, we have finally waited for the opportunity, and we must enter the secret realm."
"Demon Lord, you can't stop us just because of a guess. This is blocking our opportunity!"
"The cultivation of Daoist cultivators is difficult, and you demonic cultivators cannot understand. The secret realm is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for us. If we don't enter, the things inside will never see the light of day!"
…
They made all sorts of excuses, but the point was that they had to go in.
The concept of "sustainable development" will not be recognized by these monks. How could they allow themselves to suffer losses and benefit future generations?
In recent years, competition in the world of immortal cultivation has been fierce, and cultivators have always attached great importance to their own interests.
Xuanyuan Han heard this and a look of contemplation flashed in his eyes.
After a while, he made a decision, looked at Sang Baizhi, and said loudly -
"Sang Baizhi, this is my Daoist business, so you demonic cultivators shouldn't interfere. Since we've already promised them, we'll definitely let them into this secret realm. This is the secret realm of our three major sects, so we can naturally make our own decisions!"
Sure enough, after he finished speaking, he received the respect and moved gazes of all the disciples.
Obviously, Xuanyuan Han couldn't stop at this time.
Bai Zhi shook her head and sighed——
"Alas, originally, I didn't want to use extreme measures, but after all, our Demonic Cult's purpose is to be the savior of the world of immortal cultivation."
Everyone was stunned, and Xuanyuan Han was also stunned.
What?
Savior?
Demonic cult?!
What on earth is this woman talking about?!
How dare she say that?!
The shadow in the sky disappeared, and in the blink of an eye, a person came through the void!
Her features were very distinct, with a slender figure and a faint demonic aura floating around her. At this moment, she was wearing a black cloak, half of her face was covered by the cloak, leaving only the other half of her face as pale as jade.
The gold-rimmed glasses are vague and have a cold light.
She stopped at the spot where the shadow had appeared before, and the voice followed—
"Since you have occupied the secret realm and sealed its entrance in the mirror, then in order to be the savior of the immortal world and for everyone's future, I have no choice but to take it back."
Everyone: “???”
Xuanyuan Han: “…”
Who the hell wants you to be the savior? !
This is definitely the first time that someone dares to describe the act of snatching something in such a pure and elegant way!!
"You want to rob us?!" the Tiandao Sect leader said in shock, his face full of anger.
The Kunshan Secret Realm belonged to their three major sects. If Bai Zhi wanted to snatch it away, she would be snatching food from their mouths. How could they possibly agree?!
"Don't say it so harshly. I just want to take it away from the world of immortal cultivation and liberate the secret realm." Bai Zhi said, and with a step, she appeared in front of Xuanyuan Han.
Immediately, all Nascent Soul cultivators came out and surrounded Sang Baizhi.
This time is different from the last time!
The last time they surrounded and suppressed the demon.
This time, Sang Baizhi wants to steal their things! !
Without any hesitation, almost all Nascent Soul cultivators took action together.
In the sky, colorful magical flames appeared, various magical weapons, various secret techniques, and more than a dozen Yuanying Daojuns who were able to take action attacked Sang Baizhi together!
Even if she pulled out the same cannon she used last time, she still wouldn't be able to take out so many people at once! !
"boom--"
"Bang--"
“Boom—”
The grand spectacle of more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators attacking together was probably the first time that even countless Golden Core cultivators had seen it in their lifetime, let alone the lower-level cultivators.
These low-level monks were oppressed by the pressure and trembled, but they still tried to look up.
More than a dozen Yuanying Daojuns attacked together!
This shows how much people hate this evil guy Sang Baizhi! !
"boom--"
"Bang--"
“Boom—”
The same noise was heard again, and then everyone saw the scene:
More than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators took two steps back, their mouths bleeding. They were all injured, and all of them were injured by the opponent's moves!
A Nascent Soul cultivator from the Changtian Immortal Sect looked at a Nascent Soul cultivator from the Ziying Pavilion in disbelief.
The Yuanying cultivator from Ziying Pavilion looked at a Yuanying cultivator from Tiandao Sect in disbelief.
——Why did he (she) suddenly attack me? !
This was their first thought, and then their pupils shrank as they suddenly thought—
They were all attacking Sang Baizhi just now!
Nothing happened to Sang Baizhi, but they themselves were tricked by others!
What the hell is going on?!
"What on earth did you do?!" they asked in disbelief.
A smile appeared on the half of Bai Zhi's face beneath her black cloak.
"Because my cloak and spiritual energy form a field that can interfere with the direction of your spiritual energy, and thus interfere with the direction of your attack."
She did explain, but these Nascent Soul cultivators couldn't understand! !
Bai Zhi shook her head, feeling rather helpless. "See, I told you guys you're uneducated. If you don't study hard, you've really lived your whole life in vain."
The Nascent Soul cultivators: "..."
They had suffered a very brutal blow. At this moment, many of them were pale with blood at the corners of their mouths, especially those who had been attacked by Xuanyuan Han, whose foreheads were covered in cold sweat.
Hearing Sang Baizhi's words, they felt as if they had been attacked again, and it was an attack even more violent than before, which made their bodies shake slightly.
Bai Zhi: "Give me the mirror. Sigh, you have committed sins, yet you want me to clean up the mess for you. I hope that all your evil deeds will be recorded in the history books of future generations."
The Nascent Soul cultivators: “…………”
The body shook again.
At this moment, a familiar object suddenly appeared in Baizhi's hand - a cannon barrel.
"One third of the spiritual energy I stored last time is still unused. This is the benefit of high utilization rate." Bai Zhi smiled.
The pupils of all the Nascent Soul cultivators shrank, especially the Tiandao Sect's leader who was still standing on the platform and hadn't taken any action. He was seriously injured by this thing and hasn't recovered yet!
Xuanyuan Han's pupils shrank, and a haze flashed in his eyes. Seeing that Bai Zhi's gun was still aimed at him first, he immediately slapped his chest and used a secret technique to escape!
At this critical moment, he must not get hurt!
Xuanyuan Han escaped and Bai Zhi did not chase him because he left the mirror behind and gave it to the leader of Tiandao Sect.
The leader of the Tiandao Sect held the mirror with a confused look on his face. Because he had not made a move just now, he was standing on the ground. At this moment, he was holding the mirror, looking up at Sang Baizhi blankly.
And Bai Zhi had already pointed the gun at him.
Looking at this familiar thing...
The leader of Tiandao Sect: "..." Why is it always me who gets hurt?!
Bai Zhi: "Give it to me?"
The leader of Tiandao Sect had a dark face and slowly loosened his hand. The mirror floated from his hand to Baizhi.
"See, why didn't you just give it to me before? Why bother with all this trouble?" Bai Zhi took it and played with the mirror.
Behind her, a Yuanying cultivator from Ziying Pavilion had a vicious look in his eyes and suddenly attacked Baizhi from behind!
——If he were Yin Sang Baizhi!
If everyone attacks her together, they will attack each other, so what if only one person attacks?
Her big shield turned into a cannon and could no longer attack her crotch!
This is a disaster, absolutely cannot be allowed to stay!!
"Sang Baizhi! Die!!"
"Bang--"
Two voices sounded, one in front and one behind.
The first one was the shout of the Nascent Soul cultivator, and the second one was the sound of the Nascent Soul cultivator being knocked away.
Everyone once again witnessed the sight of a meteor streaking across the sky.
Bai Zhi didn't even turn around and shook her head: "Oh, what's the point of attacking from behind? Attacking me from behind will have a double rebound effect."
Rebound...
This word is familiar.
The spiritual energy extraction machine that is giving Changtian Xianshan a headache now has a rebound formation, so that they are helpless and can only let it extract the spiritual energy.
Now, Sang Baizhi actually set up a double rebound behind her back! !
Not only did it rebound, it even doubled!!
So fucking infuriating!!
Bai Zhi came and left in style, holding a mirror. But before leaving, she left a message:
"Everyone, stop messing around with crooked ways. If you really want to enter the secret realm, join the Demon Cult. We are about to build ten secret realms for different purposes. We welcome you to join us in the construction. Not only can you participate in the construction of the secret realms, but you can also earn credits and exchange them for useful items."
She was gone, but the news she left behind was shocking.
What? !
Can secret realms be artificially constructed?!
What nonsense is this woman talking about?!
but……
Even a double rebound is possible. It seems that anything strange can happen to this woman...
She was free and easy, but the new disciples were distracted, the high-level cultivators were shocked, and the Yuanying Daojun was furious!
A Yuanying cultivator from the Tiandao Sect walked up to the Sect Master and asked softly, "Sect Master...are you alright?"
After their leader handed over the mirror, he seemed to be distracted?
The head of the Tiandao Sect was silent for a long time, then suddenly looked at him and said, "How about... you collect one of the four secret manuals of the Demon Sect for me, so I can study them."
