Chapter 441: Peace for All Time
This battle lasted for five full years between the spirit world and the demon world.
People from various sects have rotated in waves, but only the Supreme Sect has remained the same.
On many nights when demons were howling, many monks on duty from various sects and tribes had seen a tiny but firm ray of light on the battle lines.
Gradually someone found out, and that was the current leader of the Formation Way, Lin Du Zhenren, who represented the highest level of the Formation Way and also represented the solidity and durability of the last line of defense in the spiritual world.
But no one knows who the person following Master Lin Du is.
Some people said it was some powerful recluse who had never appeared in the world. Some people said it was a spirit beast contracted by Lin Du Zhenren. That person had silver hair, wore a simple robe, carried a lantern, and had never been absent.
"I don't know if my eldest daughter recognizes me." Mu Chen talked about his daughter for the hundredth time in one day, "When will all the evil demons die?"
Qiu Ling just smiled while touching a small golden bag. Lin Du knew that it contained some letters sent by his nephew.
It's not that one of them couldn't stay in the sect, but the child firmly refused, saying that he could practice in seclusion and that he had the master in the library to keep him company, so there was no need to worry at all.
During these five years, no one from the Supreme Sect looked back.
"I don't know if the fields on the back hill are all overgrown with weeds." Mo Lin said without thinking.
Xia Tian did not say anything, "Yao Tian doesn't know how to do it, but what we have can be used."
"That's right." Mo Lin touched his head. "After the last battle, we can go back to collect herbs. We have almost used them all."
In recent years, the various alliances have been coordinating resources. Herbs, array stones, refinery materials, and fortress materials will all be delivered from behind, so they don't need to worry too much.
Many chambers of commerce and families took the lead in donating supplies, which also ensured that they had nothing to worry about.
Xia Tianwu hummed when he heard this, but didn't point it out.
The gate of the Supreme Sect has been completely closed for five years.
There was only a young man and an old man who lived in seclusion in the mountains.
There is no one who does not hope that this war will end again, the mountain gate will be reopened, and the world will be at peace.
Chu Guanmeng never asked for food. Every time, the old man from Tongtian Sect would come over and light the stove, complaining that he couldn't have a serious conversation with those people while cooking something.
The old man came every now and then, and had been coming like this for five years. Occasionally, when he didn't come, it was because someone in the sect was injured.
But even such a fragmented Tongtian Sect has not been visited for five years.
All the craftsmen also came to the front line three years ago. At first, they only helped treat some monsters with missing limbs or damaged internal organs in the monster fortress. They found a rag for the monkey to hold up, "reconnected broken limbs and made artificial prostheses". Later, they also gradually began to treat the spiritual practice of Zhongzhou.
The fat old man pretended not to know Quan Jiangren at first. After Quan Jiangren helped a young disciple of Tongtian Sect to reattach a metal hand, his true colors gradually revealed and he started to chat with people whenever he had nothing to do.
Although the young disciple lost his right hand, he now had a mechanical hand that was not afraid of being scalded and could directly hold a large hot pot. He happily rushed to grab the iron pot that had just been cooked, proudly showing off his new hand.
As Sheng Yan was watching the feast, he suddenly smiled, turned around, and met Xia Tian's smiling gaze.
Chu Guanmeng shouted from the side, "Wow! So strong! When Lin Du was your age, he didn't even want to carry a bowl of hot soup!"
In fact, Lin Du, who didn't want to take the medicine at all, crossed his arms and said nothing. He turned his head to look at Shengyan's complicated yet relieved smile, and smiled too.
Life must go on, and new hope and satisfaction will grow out of suffering and loss.
The final battle lasted longer than they had imagined.
There were originally three waves of rotations, but no one was willing to leave, and it ended up being a life-and-death battle without day or night.
For ten whole days, no one retreated.
Finally, they reached the heart of the demon world, where the demon palace was located.
It was not until the evil demons knelt on the ground and kowtowed, begging for mercy, that Lin Du suddenly realized that they might...really win.
Lin Du killed the evil demon that was kneeling and begging for mercy with a fan, turned around, and suddenly found a monk who was reluctant to stop.
She raised her right hand expressionlessly, and an icy blade pierced through the evil demon's fetus.
The monk came back to his senses, but he couldn't find the person who actually did the attack.
Just as he was about to move forward, he was frightened and broke out in a cold sweat, because next to the gradually disappearing evil demon corpse was the Earth Demon Thorn that the elders in the sect had repeatedly emphasized to be careful of.
If he took one step away, he would be caught.
Suddenly someone shouted, "We won!!! All the big demons are dead!!! If we kill the remaining evil demons, we will all win!!"
The monk looked up and found a scarlet flag hanging on the highest building in the demon world.
"Spiritual practice has won!! Clear the demon world!!!"
"We win, we win, we win! Go for it!"
Yuan Ye put his hands on his hips, listening to the almost venting and excited shouting from under the tower, and turned to look at Ni Jinxuan proudly, "See, I was right! Fighting a war requires flags."
The presence of flags represents the dawn of victory and the sense of belonging of the masses.
It's more than just a simple piece of cloth.
Ni Jinxuan took back the whip that held the flag, "Alright, I got it, I got it. Let's go! Go and clean up the evil spirits!"
In this final cleanup, everyone's body was on the verge of collapse, but everyone was extremely excited. Even if they only had the strength to walk, they still wanted to measure the land with their feet and clean it up again.
The demon world that had accumulated for hundreds of thousands of years was finally wiped out one by one.
Lin Du held the Fu Sheng Fan in his hand, standing in a dark and colorful rocky area. His consciousness spread out, and he seemed to hear countless resentments and despair.
Wei Zhi came over from somewhere and said, "I have something I want to give you. Maybe it will be useful to you."
He looked at her somewhat unfocused gray pupils. "Chu Guanmeng told me that you can feel the seven strong emotions in the world and the three poisons of greed, anger and delusion, and you will be trapped in them for a period of time. He asked me if there is any way."
Lin Du came back to his senses and shook his head, trying to shake off the hatred and the three poisons that filled his mind. "How strange! It turns out that the evil demons are the result of the accumulation of the three poisons. I didn't react to them before."
But in the past three years, I have become more and more aware of it.
Although her ability to damage evil spirits increased significantly along with this, the aftereffects also put a heavy burden on her consciousness.
"It's better to be blind. If you're not blind, the higher your cultivation level, the farther you can see and the more you can see."
She laughed to herself, "Maybe it's because the sun is about to rise in the demon world."
"This is for you. Wearing it should help you regain your purity." Wei Zhi opened his hand, and in his palm was a round, jade-colored bead.
Lin Du lowered his eyes, examined it for a while, and said uncertainly, "I don't seem to remember that the monk died on the battlefield and was cremated on the spot."
Wei Zhi withdrew his hand and said speechlessly, "I'm dead."
Lin Du was suspicious, "You still have relics?"
Wei Zhi stared at her without saying a word.
Lin Du continued to test, "You won't take down the Buddha's bones that you sealed?"
Wei Zhi continued to stare at her and still didn't answer.
Lin Du understood and answered the question himself, "It was not dismantled, but you went to the Ten Thousand Demons Cave and found this relic without sealing power, so you took it back?"
Wei Zhi finally spoke, "Well, my relics can break all karmic obstacles and mental obstacles. I think you need them."
"Just give it to me like this?" Lin Du raised his hand and pressed the swollen and painful temple. In fact, it was not necessary, she could go back and copy scriptures.
"It's yours." Wei Zhi put the relic in front of her again, "Without you, there would be no relic carrying the pure righteousness. I don't need it now."
“Not a deal,” he added. “And don’t want a deal.”
Lin Du paused for a long time before she stretched out her hand, and the jade-colored bead fell from Wei Zhi's hand into her palm.
Chu Guanmeng appeared out of nowhere and said excitedly, "This can be tied to the red rope! This way you won't want to be blind anymore."
Lin Du glanced at the clueless fur ball, raised his eyebrows slightly, and lowered his head to think about how to tie the beads on.
"I'll do it."
Lin Du glanced at the red rope around her wrist. He had tied the red rope around her hand himself.
She used her spiritual power to manipulate the red rope and moved it into the air. Wei Zhi raised her hand and found that the red rope was somewhat unhappy when she touched it. She had no choice but to use her spiritual power to force the red rope into a strange knot and secure the relic with the red rope.
As soon as it was fixed, the red rope with the relic slipped back to Lin Du's wrist.
"Okay." Wei Zhi withdrew his hand, and there was obvious blood on his fingertips where the red rope had cut them.
Apparently, when they first collided, the red rope gave a sharp blow, but the man's hands didn't shake at all.
Lin Du retracted his gaze and said, "Thank you."
Wei Zhi shook his head and stopped talking.
This perception of the seven emotions is often considered an aid to Lin Du, but along with the aid comes a somewhat heavy burden. With a mind filled with strong resentment and complex emotions, it is more difficult than usual to think rationally and make correct judgments and reactions.
Fortunately, Lin Du has always been determined not to be affected. It is just a minor obstacle on the road of cultivation that will not bother him for a long time.
As long as Lin Du goes back and rests for a while, the pain will go away.
But now, it can be done immediately, like a heavy burden has been lifted.
Lin Du calmly released his spiritual consciousness, which was as vast as a sea, covering most of the demon world, searching for the remaining evil demons and clearing them out one by one.
Along the way, we saw many exhausted practitioners sitting down and looking up at the sky.
Today, a little light briefly broke through the sky above the demonic world, which had been darkened by the demonic energy accumulated for hundreds of thousands of years.
There is only a ray of light in the sky amidst the rolling thick clouds, but the spiritual light will eventually shine upon the entire earth again.
From then on, the war between spirits and demons came to an end. The evil spirits that had troubled the spirit world and harmed countless spiritual people disappeared completely. There was no more demon in the world, and peace finally came to the world for all eternity.
