As the saying goes, "Those who are good at fighting have no great achievements", when applied to things like this kind of exploration, it can actually explain some problems. Ye Zan has sufficient preparations and means, so he doesn't have to do what some people do and end up with a narrow escape in the exploration process. Of course, the reason why Ye Zan went so smoothly in this exploration was also because the danger of this forbidden area was slightly lower.
However, for Daoyuan Supreme, it may feel that this exploration process seems to be smooth and unreal. After seeing Ye Zan come into contact with the mist, and then stand still for a moment as if he was out of body, he inevitably had some not-so-good thoughts in his heart.
"Fellow Daoist, do you feel that there is anything wrong with your body now?" After breaking into the underground hall, Dao Yuan Supreme did not approach Ye Zan immediately, but asked with deep caution.
Faced with the caution of Supreme Daoyuan, Ye Zan could certainly understand, and immediately said with a smile: "I was reckless in the next moment and made senior worry, so please forgive me! However, fortunately, I still have some preparations, and did not let that day pass. The external evil spirits succeeded and gained some benefits from it.”
Daoyuan Supreme listened to Ye Zan's explanation, and looked up and down again, but he didn't feel that Ye Zan had changed from before, so he stepped forward and said: "What Taoist friend just did was indeed a bit reckless. , Fortunately, there seems to be no damage. Otherwise, it would be a huge sin for me to invite fellow Taoist to Dahuang and not take on the responsibility of taking care of him. "
The Supreme Daoyuan is still at the level of Tongtian Realm after all. Even if this is just a flesh and blood puppet clone, his realm and eyesight will not be greatly affected. Therefore, after taking a closer look at Ye Zan, he was able to confirm that there was indeed nothing strange about Ye Zan.
"It's my fault, it's my fault!" Ye Zan quickly and sincerely apologized again.
Dao Yuan Supreme waved his hand, recalling Ye Zan's explanation just now, and asked with some surprise: "Fellow Taoist just said that there is an evil demon outside the sky, is it possible that the mist was transformed by the evil demon outside the world? All the disciples of this sect, Was he poisoned by the evil spirits outside that day?"
Even though countless years have passed since the war between immortals and demons, in the hearts of ascetics, evil spirits from outside the world are still the most terrifying existence. After all, the fact that this world has become what it is now is all caused by the invasion of evil spirits from outside the world. It is the "evidence" placed here that cannot be eradicated by time.
"What the senior said is close to the truth." Ye Zan nodded, and then while sorting out the information he just got, he further described to Daoyuan Supreme: "In fact, this sect will end up like this. Bantian was somewhat to blame. The Earth Immortal Taoist ancestor of this sect accidentally obtained a part of the corpse of the demon from outside the world, and wanted to refine it to seek a breakthrough. As a result, there was a part of the demon from outside the world hidden in the corpse. A wisp of divine soul almost killed the Immortal Dao Ancestor."
"This... is really hard to comment on!" Daoyuan Supreme couldn't help but shake his head and sighed after hearing this.
Although the Supreme Daoyuan and the Supreme Divine Machine have not reached the realm of earthly immortals, under the current shackles of heaven and earth, the realm of Tongtian is already the limit for Taoists. Therefore, to a certain extent, he could understand the desire of the Earth Immortal Dao Ancestor to seek a breakthrough, as well as his helplessness and despair when facing reality.
If there is an opportunity now, it may be possible for people to break through to the Tongtian realm. How many of the Tongtian supremes in various realms in the world can keep their true intentions. In fact, if you look at this time, when the Immortal Court opened the passage to the outer world, and how enthusiastically those Supreme Beings went there, you can see some clues.
"Indeed, this can be regarded as an example of 'people perish for wealth and birds perish for food'." Ye Zan also nodded with great understanding.
"Although, the result is already here, but if fellow Taoist don't mind, can you tell me what happened next?" After sighing, Dao Yuan Supreme asked Ye Zan curiously about what happened next.
Ye Zan, on his side, had already understood the memory information of the Earth Immortal, so he continued to say: "The Earth Immortal, in order to suppress the evil spirits from outside the world who were seizing the body, arranged this altar underground and placed it there. The sect's disciples from the Tongtian Realm and the Dharma Realm Realm came to help. Unfortunately, the evil demon outside Tiantian fell in the battle with the Immortal Court. His original strength was already at the level of a heavenly immortal, and after all, he was still more skilled than this earthly immortal. One step. As a result, the Earth Immortal suddenly went crazy, and after killing many disciples around the altar, he chose to commit suicide with his last remaining sanity. "
"In this way, although the senior did something wrong, he still took some responsibility in the end." Supreme Daoyuan sighed again.
"Well, that's right!" Ye Zan's sigh to Daoyuan Supreme was a bit noncommittal.
After all, when the Earth Immortal was faced with having his body taken away from him, he was actually in a desperate situation. He would not be able to survive unless he took his own life. Pulling others to die together can sometimes be said to be responsible, but sometimes it can also be said to be a support before death. If you understand it from the front, it means that you are dying with the evil spirits outside the world out of righteousness. If you understand it from the opposite perspective, it means "I can't live, and you can't live either."
"What happened after that senior committed suicide? That day the evil demon turned into that mist and destroyed the sect?" Supreme Dao Yuan asked about what happened next.
"Yes, that mist is the incarnation of the demon outside the world. In the words of the demon outside the world, his body is a mist demon bloodline fused with the world outside the world, so he is also called a blood wizard. He is losing the chance to seize the body. Later, the remains of the body were suppressed by this altar, so he could only extend the mist to find a body suitable for him to seize the body again. However, in his opinion, the qualifications of the disciples outside were far too low. After all, I once had the strength of an immortal, so I definitely don’t want to start from scratch like that.” Ye Zan said that the cause of death of those outside the sect was simply that they did not meet the requirements of the demons outside the world and were only worthy of being eaten as food.
"The demons from outside the world are indeed inhumane. Not only do they fuse the blood of monsters with themselves, but they also don't take the lives of others in their sights." After listening to Ye Zan's story, the Supreme Dao Yuan had a much worse impression of the demons from outside the world. .
In fact, when the war between the Immortal Court and the demons outside the world started, there were some different voices in this world. Especially after the heaven and earth were shattered, there would always be people who made such remarks, thinking that if they did not resist the evil spirits outside the world, maybe life would not be so difficult.
For some people, as long as they can achieve immortality, it doesn't actually matter who rules the world. However, they did not think about it. As the saying goes, "Those who are not of my race must have different minds." If evil spirits from outside the world rule this world, will they really regard these cultivators as "human beings"
There is no need to make any assumptions about this. Just look at how the human race treats other aliens after becoming the protagonists of the world, and you can see how low the possibility of "equality" is.
Let alone the human race's treatment of aliens, there has never been true "equality" among the human race themselves. In primitive times, people who robbed other tribes were either slaughtered as prey or driven as slaves. In the civilized period, when countries fought against each other, the concept of "subjugated slaves" came into being.
Therefore, even if you only consider your own interests, the evil spirits from outside the world are definitely the number one enemy in this world.
"After devouring everyone in the sect, this evil demon from outside the world has completely cut off the possibility of leaving, and has been trapped here until now. When I and the seniors came in, it felt that an opportunity had come, so it came up with some big idea. The opportunity came, and I was tempted to come here alone, wanting to seize the body again. Unfortunately, although I was only in the Yuan Shen realm, I had some means in terms of this soul that even the Earth Immortal could not match, so I was able to completely solve it. It's gone." Ye Zan didn't mention the matter of Biye Lotus. He only said that he had special means. He didn't mean to keep it secret, but there was really no need to be so honest.
And Daoyuan Supreme is not a rookie. After hearing what Ye Zan said, he did not ask what the method was. He just asked with concern: "Are you sure you have solved the evil demon outside that day! He will not stay." What’s the hidden danger?”
The concern of the Supreme Dao Yuan cannot be said to be without reason. After all, even the Earth Immortal Dao Ancestor fell into the hands of evil spirits from outside the world. Ye Zan said that he had the means, but no one could think of any means that could be better than the Earth Immortal.
Of course, Daoyuan Supreme asked this not because he wanted to find out Ye Zan's secrets, but just to give Ye Zan a reminder. If this reminder is actually useless, it would be the best thing to do. However, if it was the opposite, and there were hidden dangers that Ye Zan was not aware of, such a reminder would be very necessary.
Ye Zan also understood the good intentions of Supreme Daoyuan, and nodded with a relaxed expression: "Senior, don't worry, the soul of the evil spirit outside that day has been completely wiped out, and there will be no more surprises. What I just said below Everything is obtained from the memory of the demon outside that day, and I also know the location of a secret treasure in this sect."
The evil demon outside that day tempted Ye Zan by saying that he had an ancient monastic inheritance and that he knew the secrets of the sect. What he said was not random fabrication, but information obtained from the memory of the Earth Immortal Taoist Ancestor. Although the other party may not necessarily know that it is easiest to deceive people by telling lies that are true and false, they also know that telling some true information saves time and effort than making up false information.
"Is there any secret treasure?" When Supreme Daoyuan heard this, he immediately became interested. He doesn't care much about treasures, but who wouldn't be curious about the secrets left by a sect from ancient times
"Senior, please wait a moment. I will take care of the things here and take senior to open the secret. Of course, after countless years, the things in the secret will probably disappoint us a lot." Ye Zan said. After saying that, he took two steps to the side on the altar, and then stretched out his hand to grab the table of the altar.
That location was originally where the mist of the demon outside the sky was, and it was also the center of the altar. On the surface, it looked empty and empty, but under the table or ground, there was a corpse that suppressed the evil spirits outside that day.
Ye Zan knew this information, and of course he got it from the memory of the evil demon outside the world, so he successfully broke open the altar and grabbed something out of the ground. This thing has a gray-black vague shape and looks like a heart condensed with smoke. When Ye Zan holds it in his hand, he can still see the smoke billowing.
"Is this the remains of the evil spirit outside that day?" Daoyuan Supreme saw that this thing had the characteristics of the previous mist, and also had similar power fluctuations, so he naturally guessed the answer immediately.
"Yes, this is the heart core of the evil demon outside that day. It is also the key to integrating the mist demon's bloodline. It condenses the power of the law on the other party. This thing has some use, so I won't be polite to you, senior. Please help me Forgive me. When the secret is opened, regardless of whether the contents are useful or not, I will give them all to the senior." After Ye Zan took the thing, he expressed his attitude to the Supreme Dao Yuan, hoping that the other party would give it away. for myself.
Ye Zan naturally had a reason for saying this. After all, Daoyuan Supreme accompanied him into the forbidden area, which itself took a lot of risks. No matter how much the other party plays a role, this unspoken rule of "everyone who meets you has a share" cannot be broken casually.
But having said that, Ye Zan has the memory of the Earth Immortal Dao Ancestor, and naturally he has long known that there is nothing he urgently needs in that secret treasure. In other words, compared to the things in the secret treasure, the core of this demon may not be the most valuable, but it is definitely the most useful to him.
The core of this outer demon is not very powerful in terms of power, but it condenses the laws of a certain kind of fog, which can be used to create a fog like the one that enveloped the forbidden area before. Ye Zan's plan is to place this core on the war fortress and combine it with the defensive formation in the fortress to further improve the security of the fortress.
"What are you talking about, fellow Taoist? During this trip to the forbidden area, I didn't exert any strength. Instead, I opened my eyes a lot. There is no reason to take anything. What kind of core is this? Fellow Taoist, it makes sense to hold it." As it should be, no matter what is in the secret treasure, it is still the property of fellow Taoists, and I will never get involved in it." After hearing Ye Zan's words, the Supreme Tao Yuan suddenly straightened his face, and his expression was very serious. said.
When Dao Yuan Supreme said this, he actually had his own calculations. No matter how good the things in the secret collection were, they might not have much value left after countless years passed by. Therefore, compared with the things in the secret cache, the value of Ye Zan as a person is what he and his tribe value more. How can he do something that is small and lose big.
