Chapter 256: The Devil from Beyond Territory
"What the hell is this thing doing?"
Lin Fan quickly called out the Phoenix Dao Soul. He had never seen such a strange situation before. Although he was knowledgeable, this was the first time he faced something of this level.
After watching for a long time, Phoenix Dao Soul said slowly: "It wants to fight you."
"What do you mean?" Lin Fan was puzzled.
Phoenix Dao Soul said: "Although it is confused, the fact that it can raise a puppet to kill you shows that it has recovered some of its intelligence. Now that it cannot attack you personally, it is going to release the extraterritorial demon."
"What's the point of releasing the extraterritorial demons?"
"Kill you."
Lin Fan knew that his question was a little stupid. If he released the extraterritorial demon, would he be able to kill the ghost instead of him?
"Can you stop it?" Lin Fan asked.
Phoenix Dao Soul said: "It cannot be stopped. You saw it tearing the void. In fact, this void is not the world we are in, but belongs to another void. Just wait."
Lin Fan did not ask any more questions, but just looked up silently. He did not know how powerful those extraterritorial demons that appeared from the cracks in the void were, but no matter what, he could not retreat.
As the void cracks became larger and larger, mist overflowed with an unknown mysterious force.
Very strong, not weak.
Boom!
Sudden.
A ray of light burst out from the crack in the void and turned into a pillar of light that fell down. The direction where it landed was just in front of him. Without thinking, Lin Fan took off into the air and rushed towards that direction.
The Eye of Merit was fully open, staring, wanting to see how powerful the extraterritorial demon was.
The storm was spinning, and I couldn't see the specific situation. I could only vaguely see fuzzy numbers jumping around.
It seems to start with 3.
Lin Fan looked solemn. He didn't expect that the extraterritorial demon that appeared from the crack in the void was actually at the Cave Void Realm.
He has no fear in the Dongxu realm.
But the first wave saw the emergence of a Void Realm expert. Doesn't that mean that there are many experts among the extraterritorial demons? Once a large force appears, with the current situation in the upper realm, how can we resist it?
Thinking of this, Lin Fan clenched his fists and felt the pressure for the first time.
The storm gradually dissipated, and a blurry figure gradually became clear.
"Fellow Daoist, something is wrong." The voice of Phoenix Dao Soul came.
"What's wrong?"
"The demons from outside the domain are spirits, without physical bodies. Now they appear with physical bodies. Something is wrong. Something is very wrong." The Phoenix Dao Soul came from that era. Although the strength of the demons from outside the domain itself is not very good, their spirits are very strong and very cunning. They are very good at taking advantage of the cultivators' damaged state of mind and seizing their physical bodies.
Lin Fan asked: "What if it is a physical entity?"
Phoenix Dao Soul said: "Then you must be extremely careful. I have dealt with an extraterritorial demon before. The cultivator whose body was possessed had a drastic change in character. He was extremely lustful and was good at tainting women. He also killed people without hesitation and committed all kinds of evil."
After hearing what Phoenix Dao Soul said, Lin Fan felt that this extraterritorial demon was exactly the same as what he knew.
I'm afraid it will be another fierce battle.
But he has encountered countless masters in his practice so far, but no matter what the result was, he was always killed on the spot.
Lin Fan looked up into the void and seemed to hear some gloating laughter.
The storm dissipated, and a man with black hair and a shawl appeared there. He stood there like a fool, without any movement.
When Lin Fan looked at him with the Eye of Merit, he found that something was wrong with the man. His body did not look like a human body, and he did not see any resentment or evil spirit from him.
Or is it that the extraterritorial demon is trapped in a different space and cannot go out, so even if he wants to harm people, he can't find the opportunity.
Lin Fan landed in front of the other party.
The man looked at Lin Fan, his eyes gradually brightening, "Human cultivator, I haven't seen you for a long time."
"I'm Xuan Dian, what are you doing here?" Before figuring out the situation, Lin Fan was still willing to have a good communication with the other party.
The man asked doubtfully, "Didn't you human cultivators tear open the void crack and summon me here? When we first came to your human world, you shouted for war and killing, and even called us foreign demons. I didn't even know who the demons were. It was terrible, really terrible."
Hearing this, Lin Fan was a little confused. Wait, what the hell, are we scary? He felt that there was something wrong.
"Aren't you taking over the bodies of cultivators and killing innocent people indiscriminately?" Lin Fan asked.
The man smiled and said, "Interesting, you are the first practitioner who knows my identity but did not take action immediately. Instead, you asked about the situation. Well, let me tell you something."
The extraterritorial demon at this time seemed to be recalling something.
"Looking back to the time when we came here freely, I was just born from the Endless Territory. I was very young and had great ideas in my heart. I hoped that my people would not be transparent spirits, but could also have physical bodies like humans, so I came to your world."
"That day I met a practitioner who had problems with his practice and whose mind was broken. He was crazy, insane, and possessed. I entered his soul and controlled him."
Lin Fan asked, "So you got everything from him and started killing people?"
The man said, "No, listen to me. It's not as simple as you might think for us to seize the bodies of those practitioners who have gone astray. No matter what kind of creature it is, their spirits are extremely powerful and unfathomable."
Lin Fan nodded, indicating his agreement. What he said made a lot of sense.
His intuition has always been very accurate. He always felt that the extraterritorial demon in front of him was different from the fixed idea in his mind. Now it seems that there is really a big difference.
"Well, go on."
"Every living being has obsessions, and practitioners who have gone astray in their practice all have one thing in common, which is that they have mortal enemies. If they didn't have mortal enemies, who would be so eager to break through?"
That makes sense.
That makes a lot of sense.
Lin Fan hummed a few times, motioning for the other party to continue.
"So in order to make the other party's soul dissipate, we can only help him fulfill his wish. So the so-called killing spree is not true. We are just avenging the original body."
"Oh, I see. That makes sense. What about the story about the demons from outside your domain raping people?" Lin Fan asked.
The man couldn't help but sneered, "Nonsense, how can it be called adultery? As a cultivator, you have an outstanding temperament. It's no problem for you to have many wives and concubines when you come to the mortal world. The reason why I did that was very simple. I hoped that they could get pregnant. When the fetus is still unconscious, I let my people's souls fall into the fetus, so that they can have a physical body as soon as they are born. Is there a problem with this?"
Faced with such a question, Lin Fan was speechless for a moment, and even had nothing to say.
There was no concept of the six realms of reincarnation at that time.
Naturally, there is no such thing as reincarnation.
"You mean you've ever thought about giving all the tribesmen a physical body by your own strength?" Lin Fan said.
The man sighed, "Of course I want to, but I don't have the strength. I estimated at the beginning that even if I put all my energy into it, I can only create 10,000 bodies for my people at most."
Awesome.
Lin Fan understood what the other party meant. That was to leave no trace and use all of his essence until that thing could no longer hold its head up.
He looked at the other person. When he was talking about this matter, the man raised his head proudly, looking very proud.
"Then why not take over someone else's fetus?" Lin Fan asked.
The man waved his hand and said, "No, no matter what, our spirits are very powerful, and ordinary mortal bodies cannot support it."
"Oh, so that's how it is. I misunderstood you, fellow Taoist. It seems that your body now is not a physical body." Lin Fan had changed the address to fellow Taoist, and it was obvious that he agreed with what the other party said.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
If you think about it, you can understand that this is an extraterritorial demon who is working hard for the entire race.
The man said, "It is indeed not a physical body. Ever since the crack closed and could not be opened, I thought about it for a long time. After a long experiment, I came up with the idea of using the mud from outside the domain and our own essence, mixing them together to form a clay figure. Then the soul was integrated into it, and over time, it had a human-like body."
"It's just a pity that my essence is limited. There are only a few people who can bring their physical bodies into the outer realm, except for me. After fighting day and night, there will be a day when I will be exhausted."
no……
If you are a local, it may be difficult to understand what the other person is saying.
But he was also a time traveler, so how could he not understand what the other party said? It must be said that the other party was a really ruthless person, and ordinary people could not do it.
"So that's how it is. I admire your perseverance and ambition very much." Lin Fan exclaimed.
The man asked, "I still don't know why Taoist Xuandian tore open the rift and summoned me here?"
"It wasn't me who called you here, it was that thing." Then he pointed to the sky, "The fallen sky tore the void and wanted to summon you out to be my enemy."
The man looked in the direction Lin Fan pointed, but didn't see anything unusual. He retracted his gaze and said, "Master Xuan Dian, we are the tribe you call the Extraterritorial Heavenly Demons. We are very peace-loving. Of course, there have been cultivators who were possessed by Extraterritorial Heavenly Demons and killed many people. But that was not our problem. It was because some of my people were too weak and were devoured by the other party. That's why this happened."
"Don't think our aura is evil, but as the saying goes, when things reach their extreme, they will turn into the opposite. When our aura reaches its extreme, we are peace-loving in our hearts."
At this moment, he had to shift the blame away from his people.
Are you kidding? This is blatant slander.
The former practitioners had already had a deep-rooted impression of the extraterritorial demons and were simply unwilling to listen to them. Whenever they met them, they would start a fight. Even if someone listened to their explanations, they would say they were talking nonsense.
Now that he has met a practitioner like Taoist Xuan Dian who is willing to listen and believe, how could he let him go?
"Well, that makes sense. There is nothing wrong with what you said. As the saying goes, yin and yang change, positive pole gives birth to negative pole, and negative pole gives birth to positive pole. On this point, I still believe what you said." Lin Fan had a good understanding of Taoism, and he had also experienced it himself.
Let’s not talk about those who are far away, let’s talk about those who are close, for example, Xuan Dian. Since he came down the mountain, he has been slaying demons and monsters, hating evil and having a kind heart.
But there are times when I become possessed by the devil.
What does this mean? It means that even a very good person can reach the extreme and become evil.
"Thank you, Taoist Xuan Dian, for your trust." The man was overjoyed.
Lin Fan thought about their characteristics, let go of his thoughts, and said: "Daoyou, since you want to have a physical body so much, I can help you."
"Oh? Please tell me, Taoist Priest." The man asked urgently. As demons from outside the domain, they would have already possessed physical bodies. After all, outside the domain, their souls would be blown by the fierce cold wind, causing them to suffer from pain in their souls.
Moreover, since many ancestors came to the human world, they would tell their descendants when they returned to the outside world how rich and colorful life is in the outside world, and that the flowers, plants and trees all have colors. It is completely unlike the outside world, which is nothing but gray without a trace of color.
Lin Fan said: "I have established the Six Paths of Reincarnation and condensed the underworld, which can be used by spirits and souls to reincarnate as humans. But the only problem is that you will lose all your memories and abilities and become an ordinary citizen. I wonder if you can accept this."
"Ah?" The man opened his mouth, looking shocked.
Seeing the other party's expression, Lin Fan thought that he couldn't accept it. "If you can't accept it, it's okay. I'm just giving you a suggestion. It's up to you to decide."
"No, no." The man grabbed Lin Fan's hand excitedly, "Master, you just said that my people can be reincarnated and become real people, instead of relying on seizure?"
"Yes, that's what I said." Lin Fan said.
"That's great, Taoist Priest. This is something my people dream of achieving. To be honest, there are many problems with soul possession..." The man blabbered on and on about many problems.
Lin Fan understood clearly that it was due to disharmony, rejection and other reasons.
It is the same even if one is taking over another's body while still in the womb.
In the past, those powerful people could tell at a glance whether someone had been possessed by another body, and if they were discovered, the consequences would be self-evident.
Therefore, what is not yours will never be yours.
Lin Fan glanced at the void and said, "If you believe in me, summon your people now. I don't know how long this void crack can last. Once it closes, I won't be able to open it."
"well."
How could he dare to hesitate and directly summoned his clansmen. In an instant, fog surged in the void and a large number of souls madly poured out from the cracks.
But soon, Lin Fan discovered that there was something wrong with these extraterritorial demons.
They are indeed all souls, but these souls actually contain other auras, such as the aura of Buddha, Taoism, and even evil ways.
"Can your clansmen practice in a spiritual state?" Lin Fan asked.
The man said: "Of course I can practice, but I can't use it in the spirit state. I can only use it slowly after taking over another body."
"Oh, I see."
Lin Fan nodded. The demons from outside the domain would naturally obtain the memories of those practitioners who had gone astray, and thus practice their magic.
And this discovery also made Lin Fan's heart burn with excitement.
If these auras of theirs could be stripped off and put into various realms when they are sent to reincarnate, wouldn't that mean that his Dongxu rules could be perfected?
At this time, the number of extraterritorial demons that appeared was huge, densely packed and countless. They were very confused. They didn't know what they were doing? Why did their demon king summon them all? Could it be that they were in danger? Swish! All the souls looked at Lin Fan. Although the other party was not possessed, for the sake of their king, they were willing to throw themselves into the fire and attack the other party's soul.
