The demonic calamity ravaged the land of Yuan Continent, but within half a year, one-third of the Taoist Qi practitioners with cultivation died, and countless demons and spirits in the vast Western Wilderness were exterminated.
The blood of those creatures was drained away to create a blood pool, which was used to inscribe the formation patterns. People from the Demon Sect can pass through the blood pool and reach other blood pools engraved with the same pattern anywhere in the world. Therefore, the power of the Demon Sect has been integrated into one and has become unprecedentedly powerful.
This kind of miraculous technique of space teleportation has existed since ancient times, but at that time it was only available to certain creatures with specific abilities. Until the great rise of Xuanmen, such as the Four Great Dao Sect, which had a profound foundation and a large number of talents, the Immortal Sect Only those who have the strength to analyze this kind of thaumaturgy have the research progress of this kind of thaumaturgy in Qingxuan's vast divine channel art. Just to establish the magic circle for space transmission, the spiritual materials consumed are not only huge in quantity, but also extremely precious. The gains outweighed the losses during construction, so it was sealed away in the Taiwei Pavilion.
However, Yanxu found a strange way to use the blood of cultivated creatures as raw materials to build blood pools and engraved formation patterns. This actually solved the problem of materials and at the same time gave the demon sect a foundation that can truly take root in the world and be difficult to eliminate. .
When the demon sect's blood pool was revealed, the remaining immortal sects and Buddhist sects began to feel real fear, because any part of the demon sect can now support each other, and they are not afraid of being hit due to the dispersion of power, and even the demon sect's Leader Yanxu can pass through the blood pool to reach any place touched by his power at will, and he can also pass through the blood pool to reach other areas at any time.
As long as this person exists in the world, he will always be the nightmare of other Qi practitioners.
Moreover, even if you join the demon sect, it is not safe. There is a cruel competition system inside it, which makes the Qi practitioners who are accustomed to being free and easy are inferior to ordinary people. It is better to struggle to survive in such a system to satisfy Yanxu's superiority. , the fun of watching ants struggle to survive.
Although Yuanzhou respects the Four Dao Sects, the Four Dao Sects are quite indifferent and rarely interfere with other sects. Therefore, Guangqing rises in a domineering style. Although there are many vassals, more Immortal Sects and practitioners The qi warriors were still disgusted in their hearts. It wasn't until the Demon Cult appeared that those qi warriors discovered that Guang Qing was already excellent.
The Demon Sect's work style is exactly the same as that of its founder, Yanxu. He is decisive, ruthless, and has no scruples. Countless Taoist traditions that have been passed down for hundreds of years have been exterminated by the Demon Sect, and the Taoist secrets of the established sect have been taken away.
Even the classics and experiences accumulated by more than ten generations of people in the sect were all given to the Demon Sect without exception.
The Demon Cult has also continued the system of good deeds, and as long as you are a member of the Demon Cult and contribute to the Demon Cult, you can obtain good deeds, and the good deeds can be exchanged for anything in the Demon Cult's inventory and used to issue tasks.
But the most terrifying thing is that it is far more than that. One of Yanxu's moves is enough to overturn the entire practice world.
Good deeds can not only be used to exchange for spiritual objects and exercises, but can even be used to exchange for magic pills that enhance one's realm. What Yanxu has learned is all-encompassing, and because of the wonders of heavenly magic, he can condense the insights needed for the next realm into a magic pill based on different people's practice. After people take it, they can gain insights and directly enter the next realm.
This method cannot be described as earth-shattering.
Therefore, some people in the Demon Sect, in order to obtain good deeds, exchange for the Demonic Pill, improve their realm and strength, and work harder for the Demon Sect.
Only those smart people know that this kind of magic pill that directly improves the realm must have huge drawbacks. Even the magic pill is not a good thing at all. But the facts are there, and it is difficult for ordinary Qi practitioners not to be tempted.
However, in order to obtain good deeds, people in the demon sect will not spare even their own people, because the recorded good deeds can be transferred to others.
In this way, Yuanzhou moved from chaos to even more chaos.
Countless people live in fear amid the killing and bloodshed, so more and more people miss the peaceful days of the past.
Under this situation, the desire for Zhenren Shen, who is most likely to take action against Yanxu in the eyes of the world, to come out becomes stronger.
The phrase 'If Shen Qingxia doesn't come out, what will happen to the people'? It is in this situation that once it was spread, it was out of control, and it became the consensus of Qi practitioners in the world.
Many Qi practitioners fled to the sea and gathered outside Qingxuan Mountain, making Nanke Town outside the mountain gate usher in unprecedented excitement.
It seems that everyone's sincerity moved Qingxuan. Chen Jinchan, a disciple of Master Shen, personally came forward to appease the Qi practitioners outside the mountain. There was also news that Shen Lian had issued a letter of challenge and invited the leader of the Demon Sect, Yanxu, to come next year. On March 3rd, "Lingtai discusses Taoism".
The war letter also received a response from Yanxu, and since then the activities of the Demon Cult have weakened a lot.
There is an undercurrent in Yuanzhou, and everyone is waiting to see what the outcome will be after the geniuses of the Qingxuan and Xuan generations discuss Taoism at Fangcun Mountain in Lingtai.
… …
"Heroes turn the tide, kings rebuild the country, but saints can create a religion to perpetuate their thoughts." Shen Lian said in the bamboo hut on Taiyi Peak.
Chen Jinchan, who was behind him, was puzzled and asked: "Master, does he think the leader of the Demon Cult is a saint?"
Shen Lian was writing on a roll of white paper at this time, but he was still unable to finish writing, and said without looking back: "One thought becomes a devil, one thought becomes a saint, there is not much difference between the devil and the saint, because they all want to change people's hearts. , the difference lies in the means.”
Chen Jinchan's heart moved and she asked: "Then Master, are you also a saint?"
Shen Lian's faint laughter sounded and he said leisurely: "I am a human being."
Chen Jinchan said: "The disciples don't understand even more. They all say that the master has arrived in the fairyland and abandoned the secular world. Why does the master say that he is a human being?"
Shen Lian seemed to suddenly have an inspiration. He started writing on a snow-white paper, sketching one stroke at a time without pausing. He wrote two lines, and then he put the pen down and said, "What do you think is a human being?"
Chen Jinchan wanted to blurt out that creatures with heads and legs that walked upright were humans, but he immediately realized something was wrong, because not only humans but also powerful monsters could take on the human form.
He shook his head and said, "Disciple, I don't know."
Shen Lian said: "Then do you think you are a 'human'?"
Chen Jinchan replied: "Of course."
Shen Lian said softly: "Then why do you say you don't know."
Chen Jinchan said: "Disciple, I don't know where to start."
Shen Lian turned around leisurely and said: "There is a widely circulated saying in Confucianism, 'Establish a heart for the heaven and earth, establish a destiny for the people, carry on the unique knowledge for the saints, and create peace for all generations.' You should have read it recently."
Chen Jinchan nodded. Whatever books he read were based on Shen Lian's requirements. Although the knowledge of the Witch Lord's crystal ball was vast, there was also a lot of knowledge that was not available.
Of course, he didn't know that many of the books he read were compiled by Shen Lian by combining the insights of two generations, and they were not just the knowledge of this world.
Shen Lian said: "In fact, most of the words in these four sentences can be left out, but the word 'establishing one's heart' is the essence of it and the foundation of being a 'human being'."
