Chapter 584: The Last Sage, the Ancient Demon Lord, and the Historical Context



Although Jiang Mi himself said that this magic skill is not unsolvable, there are several ways to find the flaws.

But the problem is that those methods are by no means ordinary; they are exceptions among exceptions.

But unexpectedly, Zhou Qing was such an exception.

This could only make the Jiang siblings sigh that Zhou Qing was truly a hidden talent.

"The most basic transformation of the Wuxiang Demon Sutra is to change out of thin air. Without any support, one can change the appearance and aura of another person. In the Wuxiang Demon Sutra, this is the level of transformation."

Jiang Mi continued, "But there are many flaws in this kind of change. Anyone with a little bit of ability can see it, and the flaws will be revealed when they attack."

"To go one step further, you need to rely on the blood and soul of others, and then collect the true essence or soul power of others to supplement it. This change has gone a step further and can be called seamless. It is difficult to detect with ordinary means."

"Whether it's appearance, the fluctuations of his aura when attacking, the properties of his true essence, and other aspects, they are almost the same as others. This is the true aspect level."

"And the Wuxiang Magic Sutra has a highest level, which is Wuxiang. When you cultivate to this level, it is said that you can even perfectly imitate other people's martial arts and Taoist techniques, and there will be no difference in power."

Zhou Qing nodded slightly, "It sounds magical."

"It is indeed magical. The magic skills have always been mysterious, and the Wuxiang Magic Sutra is also very famous." Jiang Mi said:

"If you want to see through the changes in the Wuxiang Demonic Scripture, then the most direct way is to see the abnormalities in the behavior of the demon cultivator after the change."

"No matter how similar they are, some subtle habits cannot be changed. If a demon cultivator were to become like me and get along with people who are particularly familiar with me, then they might be discovered to be abnormal."

This is the simplest way to see through things, but it is not actually universal.

Because there are not many people in this world who are familiar with every little habit of yours and know you very well.

As long as those who practice the Formless Demonic Sutra do not appear in front of these people and inquire about your style and habits in advance, it will be difficult for them to find flaws in this regard.

"The second possibility is that one has practiced targeted Taoist martial arts of a high enough grade, or is born with a divine eye that can see through illusions. But no matter which situation it is, it is rare."

This is an important inheritance of the ancient magic path. The requirements for Taoist magic and martial arts to be able to deal with it must be very high.

This type of Taoist martial arts is relatively strange and there are very few of them.

Most Taoist martial arts in the world are naturally used for fighting.

As for the innate supernatural powers of the clairvoyance type, they are even rarer.

"In addition, even if a strong person personally investigates and understands the source, he will be able to find the problem."

Jiang Mi shook his head when he said this, "But if a disciple of the ancient magic path performs a transformation and merges into the sea of ​​people, this will also be difficult to do."

Not to mention the whole world, just in Hanzhou, how many people are there? It is obviously unrealistic to ask experts to investigate one by one.

We can only ensure that certain special places will not be infiltrated by those who practice formless magic.

"It turns out that this formless magic skill cannot undergo changes at the origin level."

I can only say that it is not as good as the Wanhua characteristics.

Jiang Ling answered as a matter of course: "Of course not, otherwise, the ancient demon sect would have brought disaster to the world long ago."

The origin has changed and cannot be detected. The consequences are too serious to be beyond the law.

"The last one is the most feasible method." Jiang Mi continued, "That is the noble energy. There is a tradition in the All Saints Academy. The grade is not high and it is very easy to practice. However, only those who have the noble energy can practice it."

"After mastering this inheritance, you can directly have a special sense of the person who has transformed with the Formless Demonic Sutra, and thus see through his flaws."

Zhou Qing couldn't help but feel confused when he heard this.

He didn't practice any inheritance, so why did his noble spirit react? It was quite strange.

Jiang Mi sighed, "This level of magic skills is natural and leads directly to the fairyland. Generally speaking, it is not so easy to be discovered by Haoran Qi."

"But when the Wuxiang Demonic Scripture changes, it is equivalent to operating the magic skills all the time. It is an exception. Moreover, this skill is especially restrained by the Haoran Qi. This restraint is more serious than other magic skills."

"The people of the ancient demon sect are particularly wary of the Academy of All Saints and hate it the most. They rarely enter the Eastern Zhou Dynasty to carry out activities."

Zhou Qing asked: "This should be related to the ancient demon king, right?"

Jiang Mi smiled and said, "Yes, the grudge between the two clans has lasted for a long time since then."

The origin of the Ancient Demonic Sect is the Ancient Demon Lord mentioned by Zhou Qing.

Of course, this sect was not founded by this Demon Lord, but by an ancient demon cultivator who inherited the legacy of the ancient Demon Lord and thus became a peerless master. Finally, he established the ancient demon path and revered the ancient Demon Lord.

All this information is recorded in Xuandu Temple, and the current situation of the Demon Sect in the world is also information that the disciples of Xuandu Temple should know. Knowing yourself and your enemy, you will win every battle.

Zhou Qing had been in Xuandu Temple for almost a month, so naturally he knew some things.

Because he had come into contact with many demon cultivators or heard news about the Demon Sect before, he was more attentive to this aspect.

According to legend, in ancient times, there was a demon king with extraordinary magical powers and unparalleled strength. He once wreaked havoc on the world and was revered as the leader of the evil ways, known as the Demon King.

The several magical skills he possesses are all magical and mysterious, making him uncontrollable and extremely powerful.

At that time, the whole world was trembling under the devilish might of the ancient demon king and was unable to resist him. That was the era when the devil was most rampant and also the darkest period in the world.

It can be said to be a catastrophe for all mankind.

But this demon did not get away with it for long, and the chaotic world of demons did not last forever.

Because another master suddenly appeared and directly suppressed the demon king.

He was another saint after the Age of Saints, and the only and last saint. Since that one, there has been no more saints in the world.

When demons were wreaking havoc in the world, the last saint descended upon the world, wiped out the demons, and defeated the ancient demon king.

In the various legends circulating in the world, the saint and the devil only fought each other twice.

In the first fight, the Last Saint defeated the Demon Lord with his extraordinary strength, but unfortunately the Ancient Demon Lord had other means and let him escape.

There were no more accidents in the second fight, and the Ancient Demon King died directly at the hands of the Last Saint.

It completely ended the ancient evil and brought peace to the world.

But before his death, the Ancient Demon King said that he had left behind his legacy, and that someone would inherit his legacy and wishes in the future and complete what he failed to do.

The Last Saint also has a response to this.

Based on the great righteousness, he created means to restrain the several magic skills of the ancient demon king, and passed them down to later generations so that when the ancient demon king's descendants appeared, they would be able to counter them and prevent the ancient demon disaster from reappearing.

As the Academy of All Saints, which claims to be the Taoist tradition of all saints, it certainly has these inheritances within it. The method to restrain the formless magic power is just one of them.

That’s why there’s a saying that the ancient demon sect fears the Academy of All Saints the most, and the hatred between the two sects is truly endless.

"I don't know whether the legends of the ancient demon king and the last saint are true or false. Did such a world-shaking war really happen in history..."

Jiang Ling was a little absent-minded, as if he was reminiscing about that era.

"It happened so long ago that only a few fragments of legends remain." Jiang Mi shook his head.

"If it weren't for these records within the ancient magic sect, which added a bit of credibility to these legends, I'm afraid no one would believe it."

Zhou Qing also sighed, "Yes, that era was too old, and many things can no longer be verified."

Jiang Mi looked at Zhou Qing and said with a smile: "Speaking of ancient things, there are even more ancient things in your hometown, Junior Brother."

"Brother Jiang, you are talking about the Tianming Sect, right?"

"Yes." Jiang Mi nodded. "During the Age of Saints, there are at least legends about the demons that brought disaster to the world. But if it weren't for the discovery of the Tianming Sect ruins, I'm afraid no one would have known about it."

"Yes." Zhou Qing nodded in approval.

“There are so many secrets hidden in history.”

By now, Zhou Qing has some understanding of the context of history.

In today's people's understanding of history, the oldest period is before the celestial change.

Regarding that era, people today only know that practitioners can enjoy a long lifespan. Other details, such as what forces and sects existed in that era and what the world was like, are all unclear.

The change in the sky is a mysterious and critical historical node that separates everything and makes previous history shrouded in fog and impossible to peek into.

The period before the great changes in the universe was also known as the unknown era, the chaotic era.

Later, after the natural disaster, it was the period of Tianming Sect.

The Tianming Sect is the supreme overlord of this era, ruling the world, and no one or any force has the ability to resist.

There is no doubt that the Mandate of Heaven is supreme and this is absolutely accurate.

However, there is actually no accurate statement as to whether other information and knowledge about this era are correct, because most of the information about this era comes from the ruins of the Tianming Sect.

There are many doubts that have not been solved or confirmed.

These things have always been a mystery.

After the inexplicable collapse of the behemoth Tianming Sect, the Tianming Era ended and the Era of Saints began.

As to how long it took for the Age of Heaven to end, and what kind of changes and developments preceded the Age of Saints, there are no specific records in the world, only fragmentary legends.

The successive birth of saints and their reverence for the world marked the beginning of the Age of Saints.

It was a brand new era, the saints led the development of the world, taught everyone, enlightened the world, and all creatures of the world prospered.

A prosperous era with flowers in bloom and raging fire has arrived.

It is said that although most of the Taoist traditions in the world today did not exist since the time of the saints, their sources are more or less related to that era.

Of course, these are just impossible to verify, there are only a few recorded legends, and no one has ever seen the specific appearance.

Some people even doubt whether the saints really existed or whether they were fabricated.

Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)

Judging from the past and present, how could there be masters like the Saints in the world? It was fake, absolutely fake, and it was a piece of news that the Saints Academy deliberately spread to flatter itself.

I, the Ancient Demonic Path, express my real condemnation of this.

All Saints College is shameless! But naturally more people believe it.

When all the saints passed away, this era naturally came to an end, and then it was the last saint and the ancient demon king.

This era is called the ancient times, but because of the existence of the last saint, some people think that this still belongs to the Age of Saints, and the afterglow of the saints shines on that era.

But in fact, according to records, before the last saint and the ancient demon king appeared, masters of their level had already appeared in the world a long time ago.

The saints are no longer in existence, and the Age of Saints is truly over. The Last Saint and the Ancient Demon King are the only two exceptions in the ancient times. No one knows how they came to that point, but they do possess tremendous divine power and have become the symbol of the ancient times.

The death of the ancient demon king and the passing of the last saint also meant the end of the ancient times, which was a relatively short era.

Since then, no more practitioners who could be canonized as saints have been born in the world, nor have any demons like the ancient demon kings been born. Until now, the human race has three kingdoms, and the barbaric demons have continued to prosper...

This is the brief historical development process of this world, which is recorded in a book called "Past and Present" in Xuandu Temple.

There are many secrets hidden in history, and Zhou Qing is very curious about it, but unfortunately, he does not have the ability to explore it now.

In fact, even if one cultivates to the level of an immortal, one may not be able to figure out all of this.

How many years has the Boundless Sky Ruins stood? According to the historical process inferred now, the Boundless Sky Ruins existed in the Age of Saints.

But the Boundless Sky Ruins still has not disappeared and has not been pacified, which shows how terrifying these secrets are.

Zhou Qing didn't dare to speculate whether the saints could solve it, but the immortals definitely couldn't solve it.

The world is so big that it always gives people a feeling that it is beyond human ability to explore.

Talking about the past made Zhou Qing and the other two have all kinds of thoughts in their minds, and their thoughts became a little complicated for a while.

In such an atmosphere, Tianxing Shenzhou flew quickly and finally returned to the Jiang family.

Then Jiang Ling took the precious cloth and went to find the elders of the Jiang family, asking them to identify it to see if they could figure out its origin.

Not long after, she brought back good news.

"I know what this thing is!"

Zhou Qing and Jiang Mi looked at her, waiting for her answer.

"This is a rare treasure made from the silk spit out by a silkworm called Yinkongxu."

Jiang Ling explained: "The Hidden Void Silkworm is a monster beast. They are extremely good at hiding themselves. As long as they enter a hidden state, they are equivalent to non-existence in spiritual perception."

"At the same time, they also have a certain ability to transform. They can change into things like stone, grass, and trees. They even have a certain talent for space. There are silkworm hearts in their bodies, which can be used to refine space bags. "

Zhou Qing and the other person were both amazed. They had never thought that there were such strange silkworms in the world.

I have to say, I have indeed broadened my horizons.

"The silk spit out by this kind of silkworm can also perfectly inherit these abilities after a certain level of refining. This piece of cloth is equivalent to a rare treasure. After refining, it also gives it extremely strong defensive capabilities."

"The defense is really strong."

Zhou Qing nodded in approval, and the True Blood Puppet was hit nine times before it returned to its original form.

"Then how can we open it?"

"The owner of this treasure is dead, and due to the characteristics of this treasure, it cannot be opened by erasing the mark on it."

Jiang Ling said: "You can choose to open it violently with extremely strong strength, but this method will harm this treasure, and then find a hidden void silkworm."

"The last method is to soak it in a kind of spiritual water called spiritual water, then you can find the cracks in the cloth."

"The Jiang family doesn't have that magical water."

Zhou Qing pondered for a moment and made a decision.

"This is a good treasure. It would be a pity to open it violently. Let's go back to Xuandu Temple and see if there is any Manifesting Spirit Water or Hidden Void Silkworm there."

The Jiang siblings did not object to this decision because this was Zhou Qing's spoils of war.

Zhou Qing also distributed the four magical artifacts obtained from the three ancient demons with the Jiang siblings.

However, the two said that they did not help at all in that battle and strongly refused.

But Zhou Qing was also very determined. Jiang Mi had done him a great favor by bringing him into Luoxia Ice Field. The fact that he saved a month of hard labor was something that no magical weapon could compare to.

Under Zhou Qing's insistence, the Jiang siblings had no choice but to accept a lower-grade artifact, otherwise they would be disrespecting Zhou Qing.

As for the other three artifacts, no matter what Zhou Qing said, they refused to share them.

In fact, the value of a magic weapon is not as good as Tianxia Snow Spring.

Just after this incident, the two sides will definitely maintain a good relationship, and it will continue to deepen.

So it’s enough to just show some appreciation, but it’s not a good idea to put a price tag on everything.

If I really did that, wouldn't it be saying directly that I don't want to have anything to do with your Jiang family, or that the Jiang family doesn't want to bother with you, Zhou Qing?

Jiang Ling revealed another piece of information: "I heard from my father that the Spiritual Water is a relatively rare treasure, which may be used in the identification of some treasures."

Zhou Qing nodded and kept it in mind.

At this time, the sun was shining brightly, so...

Let’s eat first.

After having a farewell banquet at the Jiang family, Zhou Qing and Jiang Mi flew to the Xuanfa Mountains.

It has been almost three days since he came out, and Zhou Qing thought that Qi Yunyuan and the other man should be back by now.

When he returned to Xuandu Temple, it was already late at night. Zhou Qing first went to Shuiyue Peak, reported safety to Luo Liuli, and then talked about what happened in Luoxia Ice Field.

"Three demons from the ancient magic sect? You killed them..."

This sounds quite impressive.

Luo Liuli nodded slightly, "You did a good job. Send their bodies to the Merit Hall tomorrow, and the temple will reward you."

There is no need to go to the Zhenchuan Palace for this kind of thing. The Merit Palace is responsible for this matter.

"As for the water of revelation..."

Luo Liuli paused for a moment, then took out a jade bottle from her space ring.

"I happen to have this thing here, you can use it."

“…”

Danjun’s thighs are so comfortable to hug.

If Zhou Qing needed this magical water alone, he would need to find out information first and then keep running around. It was unknown how long it would take to get this treasure.

Now it is delivered directly to you.

Zhou Qing did not refuse and took the miraculous water.

It was just a rare treasure, and considering the current level of trust between them, it was not worth mentioning.
