Chapter 899: Secret Demon |
Zhang Wei aligned the small mirror in his hand towards Liao Yuan, while Qing Gu True Monarch aimed his small mirror at Liao Xing.
Both of them activated their True Essence simultaneously, and from each mirror, a cyan light shot out, gradually shining upon the bodies of the Liao brothers, inch by inch.
Shang Han True Monarch, who was originally very angry, saw Zhang Wei and Qing Gu True Monarch's actions. His face first showed a puzzled expression, and then as if he remembered something, his expression changed drastically, filled with astonishment and fear.
As the two beams of light from the mirrors fell on their targets, a colorful glow appeared on each mirror.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Wei and Qing Gu True Monarch both had solemn expressions on their faces, but at the same time, they seemed relieved.
"As expected, it's really this thing," Zhang Wei sighed.
"Be careful, we must not disturb this thing, to prevent any reaction from the Demonic Cultivation behind," Qing Gu True Monarch reminded in a low voice.
Zhang Wei and Qing Gu True Monarch were cautious, using their respective mirrors to cast spells on the Liao brothers.
They saw brilliant rays of light emitting from their mirrors, enveloping the Liao brothers. Then, a layer of light completely wrapped the two brothers, cutting off their connection with the outside world.
Shang Han True Monarch, who was originally angry, became terrified after seeing what Zhang Wei and Qing Gu True Monarch did. He showed no resistance to Zhang Wei's actions.
After the mirror shone on Shang Han True Monarch's body, there were no issues.
Only then did Zhang Wei lift the restrictions on him, allowing him to regain his freedom.
Meng Zhang and the other two had been observing from the side without making any noise.
Seeing Zhang Wei and Qing Gu True Monarch's actions, Meng Zhang had some speculations in his heart.
Zhang Wei looked at the Liao brothers and said, "They have been completely sealed and cut off from any perception of the outside world. We still have time now, and I can tell you more things."
"After you hear them, remember them well and do not spread them around."
Next, Zhang Wei went on to speak at length.Originally, many years ago, the secret Demonic Cultivation lineage within the world of magic had secretly infiltrated the Dali Dynasty.
The practitioners of Demonic Cultivation, who followed the path of secret magic, were experts at concealing their identities. Even cultivators with much stronger Cultivation Bases would find it difficult to see through the true nature of their Demonic Cultivation when facing them directly.
In addition, those who practiced the secret Demonic Cultivation were skilled at demonizing others, just like other forms of Demonic Cultivation. Especially among the secret Demonic Cultivation lineage, their methods of demonization were covert and hard to detect.
They secretly implanted demonic seeds into the bodies of targets of the Demonic Dye.
These demonic seeds absorbed the seven emotions and six desires, as well as the mixed thoughts of human hearts, gradually evolving.
Once the demonic seeds completed their evolution, the cultivator in whom they were implanted would be completely controlled by the demonic seeds, becoming a puppet of the Demonic Cultivation with the implanted seeds.
Initially, only a few Demonic Cultivators caused a huge disturbance within the Dali Dynasty's borders.
The cultivators controlled by the demonic seeds showed no signs of their impending outbreak, even managing to deceive many cultivators at the Primordial Spirit late stage.
In the end, it was only through the personal intervention of Ba Wudi and Imperial Preceptor Chunyu Zhongda that this turmoil was quelled.
Zhang Wei could personally attest to this event, and to this day, he still trembled with fear when thinking about it.
Qing Gu True Monarch learned about this incident when he went to visit Ba Wudi in the Dali Dynasty.
When Wen Dong True Monarch reported to Zhang Wei about the incident of two Primordial Spirit True Monarchs being tampered with, even Shang Han True Monarch at the mid-Primordial Spirit stage failed to detect any clues. Zhang Wei immediately recalled the past and became extremely vigilant.
The destruction caused by the secret Demonic Cultivation was immense, and in such matters, Zhang Wei would rather act decisively and be alarmed for no reason than have the slightest negligence.
He called on Qing Gu True Monarch and took immediate action.
Fortunately, after that incident years ago, there was an expert in artifact refining within the Dali Dynasty who specifically crafted a special magic tool to detect and suppress demonic seeds.
Luckily, they discovered the seeds early, before they had fully evolved, so the Liao Family siblings could still be saved.
If the demonic seeds had fully developed, the Liao Family siblings would have lost their true consciousness and become puppets of the Demonic Cultivation practitioner.
As for the Demonic Cultivation practitioner who secretly took action, they would experience a significant increase in their Cultivation Base as a result of demonizing the two Primordial Spirit cultivators.
At this point, Zhang Wei praised Meng Zhang and Taiyi Sect highly.
"Indeed, Taiyi Sect deserves to be a top sect. Its inheritance is so profound that it is not swayed by Demonic Cultivation.""It is said that Taiyi Sect's methods of vanquishing demons were renowned throughout the Middle-Earth Continent. With a figure like Sect Master Meng, Taiyi Sect, despite facing calamities, has a promising future and can be revitalized."
Individuals like Zhang Wei have a deep understanding of Taiyi Sect, which once dominated the Middle-Earth Continent.
Naturally, he attributed Meng Zhang's ability to detect abnormalities to Taiyi Sect's inheritance.
Meng Zhang had also heard from Extreme Sword Spirit General about Taiyi Sect's highly sophisticated demon-suppressing secret techniques, which played a crucial role in quelling demonic calamities and combating Demonic Cultivation and demons.
Unfortunately, after Taiyi Sect's peak, most of these demon-suppressing secret techniques were lost when the sect was annihilated. In the current inheritance that Meng Zhang received, this aspect was also lacking.
Meng Zhang, of course, wouldn't voluntarily explain that he relied on Diviner's Spiritual Awareness to detect the abnormalities.
Zhang Wei and Qing Gu True Monarch temporarily imprisoned the Liao Family siblings using secret techniques.
They needed to kill the Demonic Cultivation practitioner behind the scenes before the latter realized something was amiss. Only then could they remove the demonic seeds from the Liao Family siblings.
Meng Zhang voiced his suspicion about You Hongzhi True Monarch.
Shang Han True Monarch of the Grand Union Alliance had also heard about the secret Demonic Cultivation matter.
Before, it was the unexpected Liao Family siblings who fell into the trap, but now, after being alerted by Zhang Wei, Shang Han True Monarch listened to Meng Zhang's words.
He immediately seized the opportunity, saying that he had long felt something was off about You Hongzhi and his group. He suspected that the local forces in Jiuqu Province might have been colluding with Demonic Cultivation, and he firmly believed they should not be spared.
Zhang Wei was furious upon hearing this and gave Shang Han True Monarch a severe reprimand, showing no face to the latter.
For the Dali Dynasty, the reappearance of the secret Demonic Cultivation lineage was a major event that could potentially lead to a great calamity.
At this critical juncture, Shang Han True Monarch was still trying to use official power from the Dali Dynasty to expand their scope of attack and achieve their own ends.
If not for the Grand Union Alliance's powerful background, Zhang Wei would have dealt with Shang Han True Monarch on the spot.
The secret Demonic Cultivation lineage excelled in creating chaos and wreaking havoc in the region.
Based on the Dali Dynasty's accumulated experience, they had to act promptly and not lose control of the situation.
As the commander leading a large army, Zhang Wei made decisive judgments and had his own opinions.
Upon receiving the information, he acted immediately, and now that the presence of the secret Demonic Cultivation lineage was confirmed, they would not waste any more time.
