Chapter 85 People from different worlds
"This demonic sword Wujian has actually become a demonic creature formed from the resentful souls of the 100,000 people who died in vain."
Qi Sibai waved his hand, and the tea floated in the air, forming a water mirror.
Above the water mirror, the face of a middle-aged man emerged. His skin was bronze, his face was square and serious, and there was a scar on his forehead that looked like a burn.
The most peculiar thing is that his arms are very long, almost reaching above his knees.
"I have already told you the identity of the first host, Tie Baiyuan."
"This was the master of the demon sword forger Jie Kun, and the second-in-command of the Sword Pavilion at the time. He was taciturn, rarely leaving his home, and devoted himself entirely to the study of swordsmithing. He was also the most likely candidate to become the next master of the Sword Pavilion. After Jie Kun's accident, he also disappeared."
"At the same time, more than 170 members of his family and the then-master of the Sword Pavilion also went insane."
"This incident also indirectly led to the decline of Jianlu for a period of time, and it almost collapsed."
Qi Sibai paused, his eyes solemn. "But strangely, not all of these people were with him at the time. Many of them were scattered throughout the Great Zhou. Some even went to other countries."
"For example, Tie Baiyuan's daughter was in Yang Country, but she was not spared."
"Without exception, all of these people went insane on the same day, the day Tie Baiyuan woke up."
"Some people commit suicide when they go crazy, while others are simply crazy. But all of them agree that the world before them is not the real world, and it is completely different from what they know."
Chen Kuang pondered, "In other words, the condition for being affected by the demon sword is not contact with the demon sword's host, but perhaps... the relationship with the demon sword's host?"
Qi Sibai nodded: "Indeed."
He went on to recount the identities and experiences of two other previous hosts.
The second host was a mortal member of a small Zhou Guo gang. He had no cultivation and, before he went mad and disappeared, his status was extremely low. He was also an orphan.
At first, the gang members even thought he was just sick with a cold. After being in a coma for a few days, they thought he would not survive and had him thrown into a mass grave.
As a result, seven days later, this man was covered in mud and in tatters, running wildly on the local streets, laughing as he ran, and ran into the gang.
Wherever he went, everyone laughed along with him. Then the entire gang of more than a thousand people committed suicide. In addition, some people who had had contact with this man also went crazy.
And this person has disappeared.
The third host is the lord of a city in Yang Country. She has innate cultivation and is a woman.
The experiences are roughly the same, but the difference is that the death toll has risen to an alarming level.
After seven days, the entire city turned into a crazy city and a dead city in an instant!
The Emperor of Yang was afraid of this, so he burned the city and concealed the news. He then invited "Qingpingzi", the Taoist God of the Earth of Xuanshen Taoism, who was Shen Xingzhu's master, to exorcise demons and suppress evil spirits.
"Earth Spirit Dao Lord?"
Chen Kuang raised his eyebrows. No wonder Shen Xingzhu's master took this so seriously. It turned out that he was also a participant in the demon sword incident.
Qi Sibai nodded. "The Xuanshen Dao Sect has also been concerned about the wandering demon sword, but they are also helpless. This demon sword appears and disappears too quickly, and it cannot be predicted by ordinary methods. Qiankun magic has no solution to this."
"Therefore, we can only hand this important task over to our Astronomical Observation Department."
"And I am the only one who can see the Demon Sword's destiny."
Qi Sibai said this and smiled, a bitter smile.
He himself was helpless about such a troublesome destiny, but for the people in the Astronomical Observation Department, this was also their own destiny.
Chen Kuang could also fully understand.
There is not even any connection between these hosts.
The only thing they have in common is that after becoming the host of the demon sword, they fell into a coma for seven days, and then woke up and fell into madness with everyone related to them.
and……
"Looking at the situation of these three hosts, it seems that the more people a host's identity allows them to reach, the more people will be affected and suddenly go crazy..."
Chen Kuang rubbed his temples, feeling that things seemed to be a little more serious than he had imagined.
"And the current host of the demon sword is that little swill bucket."
"He's the last descendant of the Liang royal family. If he succeeds in restoring his kingdom in the future... it would be incredible!"
Chen Kuang took a deep breath and asked, "Brother Qi, the people who went crazy with the first three demon sword hosts were just people they knew and had connections with?"
Qi Sibai shook his head: "There are also some I don't even know."
"For example, the second host, who is also suspected of going mad because of the demon sword, and a woman from Liang State thousands of miles away."
"When I investigated later, I heard that when she went crazy, she kept saying that the host was her husband and they had a child."
"And in the mouths of other lunatics, the host's identity is not just a small gang member, but a well-known hero."
Qi Sibai said in a deep voice: "The same situation also happened to the third host."
"Combined with the vague destiny I witnessed, I was able to confirm earlier that the demon sword actually affected those who had intersected with it in another world within the host's 'dream.'"
Qi Sibai looked at Chen Kuang and Shen Meinan.
"And now, this 'dream' should be called 'The Great Illusion'."
