At this time.
A strip of cloth fluttered in the wind and landed in front of Baili Dongjun.
Baili Dongjun casually grabbed the strip of cloth and looked up.
On the strip of cloth, a line of words written in blood could be seen.
Once you embark on the path of Tao, all worldly affairs become meaningless; from then on, we are merely strangers on the road.
Baili Dongjun stared blankly at the words written in blood.
A deep sense of loss welled up inside me.
The promise we made as children resurfaced in my mind.
He became a wine connoisseur, and Brother Yun became a swordsman; the two of them roamed the martial world together.
But now, everything has changed.
"Such is fate. Everyone has a different path. Even if he hadn't fallen into demonic ways, he would most likely be in this situation now."
"Being a stranger is the best option; turning brothers against each other is the cruelest thing."
Li Changsheng said with a sigh.
Even though he has lived for 180 years and is called an immortal.
But when faced with the affairs of this world...
I still can't figure it out.
Ye Dingzhi was originally a free-spirited young man, just like his disciple Baili Dongjun.
However, he suffered too much injustice in the world from a young age. First, his entire family was brutally murdered, and he had to flee everywhere.
It's not easy to find a truly sincere mentor.
But once again, he watched helplessly as his master died before his eyes.
And the woman he loved was taken away...
At this moment, Li Changsheng actually felt that Ye Dingzhi's words made some sense.
This world.
Becoming a demon is not the worst thing.
On the contrary, those evil people, who clearly have the appearance of humans, are even more evil in their hearts than the demons.
Don't persuade others to be kind to others without suffering.
Only then did Li Changsheng truly understand this sentence.
The three returned to the blacksmith's shop.
After a moment of confusion, Baili Dongjun suddenly remembered something.
He looked at Yueyao and asked, "Luoxia, why does that woman next to Brother Yun look so much like you?"
I finally asked.
Yueyao had already prepared an explanation in her mind, and said, "That woman is actually my twin sister."
"However...it seems she has already sided with Ye Dingzhi."
Baili Dongjun frowned slightly: "Judging from her appearance, I'm afraid that Brother Yun has used demonic techniques to control her mind."
Yueyao feigned shock: "Ah?! What should we do then!"
Baili Dongjun pondered for a moment and said, "Brother Yun is not one to kill innocent people indiscriminately. Your sister will definitely be alright. Next time you meet Brother Yun, I will ask him to spare your sister."
Yueyao said gratefully, "Thank you so much, Brother Dongjun!"
Li Changsheng glanced at Yueyao slightly, and although he knew her identity, he didn't say anything.
He simply turned and continued chatting with Luo Sheng.
Although Baili Dongjun felt that something was amiss, he couldn't figure out what the problem was even after thinking about it for a long time.
Left with no other choice, I gave up trying to figure it out.
He then picked up a jug of wine and gulped it down.
at this time.
He felt an overwhelming sense of melancholy and needed to drink to temporarily alleviate it.
Chapter 8 New Mission: Cultivate Your Power!
Southern Secret.
In a secluded valley.
At this moment, the entire valley was filled with an extremely dense aura of malevolence.
Blood-red mist surged and billowed, all the vegetation in the valley withered, and wild beasts and insects fell silent, leaving only stark white bones.
Ye Dingzhi closed his eyes, his demonic power flowing through his body, absorbing the malevolent energy in the valley.
After becoming a demon.
His strength is increasing at a visible rate every day.
It only took a few days.
His strength has increased even further.
at this time.
A figure dressed in a purple robe and wearing a mask walked through the air.
Even under the cover of a loose purple robe.
You can still vaguely see her curvaceous figure.
"Yan Lingxia greets her master!"
The man in the purple robe and mask knelt before Ye Dingzhi and said respectfully.
As that clear, bell-like sound rang out.
Ye Dingzhi slowly opened his eyes, a flash of blood passing through his pupils.
He looked at Yan Lingxia and asked calmly, "Get up. How did things go?"
Yan Lingxia slowly stood up, removed the mask from 8939's face, revealing a delicate and beautiful face.
No one would have guessed that beneath that fierce mask lay such a delicate beauty.
Yan Lingxia said, "Reporting to Master, I have challenged all the experts of the Southern Martial Arts Sect."
"A total of 135 people were killed, and 30 people had their martial arts skills disabled."
Upon hearing this, Ye Dingzhi opened the system and submitted the task.
[Congratulations, host, on completing the first task assigned by the leader of the demonic path.]
[A thunderous roar shakes the south!]
[Successfully defeated 135 masters of the Southern Manual, killing 15 of them.]
[Reward: Virtual Mind Technique!]
As the mechanical electronic sound faded away.
moment.
A surge of internal energy unexpectedly entered Ye Dingzhi's body.
Immediately afterwards, this internal force automatically circulated continuously within Ye Dingzhi's meridians along a specific route.
After a while.
Ye Dingzhi has completely mastered the art of the Emptiness Technique.
At the same time, various information about the "Nianxu Gong" technique also flooded into Ye Dingzhi's mind.
Once you break through the ninth level of the Mindfulness Void Technique, you can enter the Divine Travel Mystic Realm.
Furthermore, this technique allows one to continuously absorb the internal energy of others to strengthen oneself.
After practicing the Mindfulness Technique for the duration of an incense stick burning, Ye Dingzhi sat cross-legged and completed the Minor Success of the Mindfulness Technique.
When Ye Dingzhi opened his eyes again.
The pupils in his eyes had changed from pure black to gold.
This is a special effect of practicing the Mindfulness Technique.
It will turn your eyes gold.
At this time.
A mechanical electronic voice sounded again.
[The second task for the leader of the demonic path is now being issued.]
[Cultivate your power!]
[He commands twenty experts at the Nine Heavens Realm, five at the Soaring Clouds Realm, and one at the Great Freedom Realm.]
[Reward: Soul Refining Flag! 】
"Soul Refining Flag?!"
Ye Dingzhi's expression shifted slightly, and a murderous aura condensed around him.
Even just looking at the name of the reward, one can clearly understand what it is.
If he obtains this Soul Refining Banner.
By then.
He was determined to make Emperor Tai'an and the people in the Jingyu Prince's Mansion experience firsthand what it meant to be unable to live or die!
then.
Ye Dingzhi looked at the task requirements.
"A Nine Heavens Realm expert, a Soaring Soaring Realm expert, and now they're asking for a Great Freedom Realm expert?"
Ye Dingzhi frowned slightly.
The requirements of this task are quite suitable for his current situation.
At this point, there were still six months left before they could go to Jingyu Prince's Mansion to seize Yi Wenjun.
These six months are just enough time for him to continuously expand his influence and strengthen his own power.
just.
This task is not easy.
Although his current strength is at the half-step Evil Monarch realm.
It is located between the Half-Step Divine Journey and the Divine Journey Mystic Realm.
Killing people at these levels is as easy as killing chickens and dogs.
However, the task required recruiting them as subordinates, not killing them outright.
Killing is easy.
But the difficulty lies in finding the right people.
in this world.
Martial arts are divided into nine ranks, with the highest rank being the Vajra Mortal Realm. Only those who reach the Vajra Mortal Realm can be considered true masters in the martial world.
Above the Vajra Mortal Realm lies the Free and Easy Realm. This realm is the backbone of martial arts sects and major forces, such as generals who guard a region and renowned martial arts masters who reside in a place. The strength of these masters is basically at the Free and Easy Realm.
Above the Realm of Freedom lies the Realm of Carefree Delight. Only by entering this realm can one truly be considered to have stepped into the pinnacle of the martial arts world.
The Free and Unfettered Heavenly Realm is further divided into four levels.
The gap between these four levels is enormous.
These four realms are Nine Heavens, Soaring High, Great Freedom, and Half-Step Divine Travel.
