But the demon took over the body and completely occupied the mind, replacing this person's existence.
However, after the demon swallowed one side of the Zhihe River, he never imagined that there was another one nested inside.
And even more dramatic is.
At that time, Zhihe was devoted to Buddhism, so the side that remained outside was naturally the "good side".
The seriously injured demon was in a panic and swallowed up a completely kind True Buddha!
As a result, he was converted in reverse, and the two merged into one, with Zhihe's "good side" being dominant.
Zhihe thus became a half-human, half-demon being.
But Zhihe is a true Buddhist disciple, so how could he allow himself to coexist with the devil?
He immediately chose to commit suicide.
However, the "Mirror of Good and Evil in the Sea of Bitterness" took effect.
Zhihe, who was reincarnated again, became the "evil side", but the "good side" that merged with the devil was still embedded in his soul.
He escaped the cycle of heaven and earth.
Yet he is trapped in his own cycle of good and evil and cannot escape.
"I know full well that I cannot suppress the demon for long. In each reincarnation, he attempts to influence the embedded side, hoping to break free from the 'good side'."
“So I thought of a way.”
Xiuzhu explained to Chen Kuang with that weird smile:
"My 'good side' made rapid progress in Buddhism, achieving the Xuanxuan realm in just a few decades each time. Therefore, I left behind relics each time, allowing myself to once again become the person of my own wisdom."
"Reinforce the same memory over and over again, causing the demon to completely lose himself in the 'good side'."
"And the demon of heaven naturally refused to give in. Before my last reincarnation, he even tried to implant a demon within my 'good side', reuniting my good and evil sides..."
"He was only halfway successful, because he didn't know that the 'Bitter Sea Mirror of Good and Evil' had another ability."
"It is to reverse the good and evil sides."
"However, during the entanglement, I accidentally attracted the attention of the Heavenly Dao again, and had to erase the memory of the 'good face' and let him reincarnate again."
"And I used the power of the demon to 'surface'."
"As for that relic, it has nothing to do with me. It was a cover-up plan by those three demons."
After hearing this, Chen Kuang finally understood.
No wonder Xiuzhu inherited the relic but has no memory of it!
There is actually such a long and tortuous reason behind this...
But Chen Kuang also discovered that what Xiuzhu said was half true and half false.
However, most of the key information was true and did not hinder his plan.
Chen Kuang didn't delve into it any further.
It doesn’t matter whether the person speaking now is Xiuzhu’s “good side” or “evil side”, or even if it is the devil, as long as he really wants to help Chen Kuang get rid of the devil.
What Xiuzhu said next is the truly important part.
That's how to kill the demon.
Things like demons are born without reincarnation.
After their death, they will not return to the furnace of yin and yang of heaven and earth like human souls, but will return to the "desire realm".
This is where the demon was born.
The devil is not afraid of death, but is afraid of losing himself and becoming human.
Yes, although the demons’ hobby is to replace humans, what they fear most is actually becoming humans.
Even if the possessed human is killed, the demon itself cannot be killed.
Want to actually kill them.
The only way is to go to the "Desire Realm"!
This was Xiuzhu's original method. He approached the three demons as a celestial demon, just to wait for their bodies to completely decay.
——Normally, people who are possessed by demons will not have any abnormalities in their bodies. They become like this purely because of the backup plan left by the three real great Zen masters.
The mission of these three demons now is to occupy the Pure Land and allow other demons to enter the bodies of the monks in the Pure Land.
Once they complete their mission, they will open the "Desire Realm" channel and allow other demons to come over.
This was the moment Xiuzhu was waiting for.
He wanted to use his identity as a half-demon to infiltrate the "Desire Realm" and defeat the demon from the inside.
It has to be said that this was a bold plan that even Chen Kuang was stunned.
While others were still thinking about how to fight against the 72 tribes of the Yeman on the front line, he was already thinking about going to the "Desire Realm" to steal a home.
But the chances of this plan succeeding are slim.
How many demons are there in the Desire Realm? How powerful are these demons? These are all unknown.
Chen Kuang didn't think Xiuzhu could succeed by himself.
But... Xiuzhu told him about this, and it was obvious that he wanted him to be his teammate.
After Chen Kuang pondered for a moment, he did not reply in a hurry. Xiuzhu also had some reserved information and needed to wait for him to make a decision.
Their most urgent task is to confirm whether Xiuxin can escape the pursuit.
"Xiu Xin was already injured at the time, and being chased by several elders was a bit dangerous, but... it should be possible."
Chen Kuang's eyes flashed and he muttered to himself in his heart.
After all, Xiuxin still had a seed and a scale left by Chen Kuang with the help of the Zhankong Sword on her body.
The seeds are the "Borrowing Flowers to Offer to the King" magical power that Chen Kuang once obtained from the Flower Granny in the Infernal World. This magical power has another use.
It uses its own flesh and blood as nutrients to bloom flowers to protect itself, at least it can keep Xiuxin alive.
The scales are Chen Kuang’s own mermaid scales, which serve as a token of his love.
If Xiuxin could meet Bailong, she would naturally get help with the token.
Otherwise, with Jingtu's reputation in Cangyuan, the situation Xiuxin is facing at this moment would probably be more difficult than when she faced Chen Kuang who was being hunted down by the Martial Saint Pavilion.
