The waning moon is like a bow, and there are still stars hanging in the sky before dawn.
Baili'an was walking in the palace corridor, holding a full-moon wine gourd and jade beads against the moonlight, drinking wine alone in front of the moonlight.
Since practicing in Chaling for the past half month, the full moon wine gourd, which has bottomed out, has now collected less than half of the moonlight wine, lingering like mist and stars in the small sapphire-colored gourd.
The Full Moon Wine Gourd is a top-grade fairy weapon created by heaven and earth. Although it is not an offensive fairy weapon, it is a self-generated spiritual treasure that can charm and nourish life.
Drinking a mouthful of moonlight wine brewed from this gourd can be compared to the three months of ordinary monks practicing on Lingshan Mountain in the blessed land.
Bailian does not belong to the human race, nor does he specialize in spiritual power. Because of the yin and yang Dao fish in his body, he is an extremely rare body with both spiritual and demonic cultivation.
As a corpse demon, the spiritual power nodes in his body that should have been swallowed up and covered by the black demonic energy have opened up ten spiritual power nodes like ordinary humans.
It is precisely because of the existence of that spiritual power node that he can absorb the spiritual power between heaven and earth and practice human Taoism.
But after all, he is not a real human being. He is a corpse demon born from eating blood. The dark blood energy hidden in his body is in conflict with the spiritual power of heaven and earth.
Balian is different from ordinary demons. Even in this vast world of demons, the cultivation and growth of demons are inseparable from their spiritual power.
Demons and humans have one thing in common, and that is 'life'.
The corpse demon is the dead, and the blood and energy in the body cannot coexist with spiritual power, just like the sun and the moon cannot shine together.
For the corpse demon, if the body does not absorb the spiritual power required by human demons, the power of dark blood in the body will become extremely sensitive and violent, almost making it go crazy, and it will also destroy the power of the dark blood that is not the same. The same spiritual power kills and expels.
Bailian is a rare alternative among spirit demons. His body is not only able to coexist with spiritual power and blood, but also allows the two forces on both sides to not interfere with and exclude each other.
This seems simple and easy, but who knows how dangerous it is for two forces with opposite attributes to coexist in one body.
Since his rebirth, Balian seems to be able to switch between these two completely different forces with ease. However, if there is no balance left, once the critical point of balance between spiritual power and dark blood power is broken, then There will only be two possibilities.
Darkness devours light, or light devours darkness.
No matter which ending it is, it is definitely not a good ending for Bailian.
Sister Si Li once told him that he was different from other corpse demons because he was not assimilated into a corpse demon in a normal and traditional way.
Although the corpse demon is deceased, its obsession persists after death, and it is unwilling to be dispersed and goes back to reincarnation, relying on a powerful resentment to nourish its soul.
Such souls are ghosts. If they collect enough resentment, they can turn into supernatural beings, namely corpse demons.
But Balian was different. He had no obsession or resentment after his death. Even his soul was incomplete and he had no qualifications or conditions to become a corpse demon.
If the general had not forcibly given him the ritual of blood descent and planted the yin-yang fish, there would be no way for him to wake up as a corpse demon.
Therefore, it is precisely because of the absolutely balanced yin and yang forces of life and death that are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other in the body, that Si Chen became what he is today.
There is no way for him to be completely resurrected, nor can he become a complete corpse demon.
Once the internal balance is broken and one side of light and darkness disappears, it means that the road between night and dawn will no longer exist, and Si Chen, who can only walk this road alone, will be destroyed.
Balian has always been able to control this speed carefully and perfectly.
Until the outbreak of the Burning Heart Fruit.
A line of black blood faintly overflowed from the palm of the hand, slowly moving towards the arm, and the three spiritual power nodes between the arms also became pitch black as the black energy was swallowed up.
Human spiritual power nodes are either shining brightly when they are lit, or as dark as stone when they are blocked. They will never be as dark as they are now.
He tentatively moved the spiritual power in his body to swim through the three black spiritual power nodes. The pure spiritual power instantly penetrated those nodes and turned into a third type that was neither spiritual power nor dark blood power. exist.
The black-stained spiritual power is like a stubborn disease that is difficult to remove, occupying and destroying the order and function of the body.
Balian drank all the moonlight wine in the flask, and then suppressed the spread of the black energy. He forced the black energy between his arms back into his palms, and his spiritual power nodes returned to white.
Balian looked at the extremely thin line of blood on his palm. This was a huge hidden danger after all. Moonshine wine was extremely difficult to collect, and it only took him half a month to collect this much.
If the black energy breaks out and spreads next time, and the moonlight wine has no time to brew, what will he do?
In order to solve this problem, Balian must first know why he has something as strange as the Burning Heart Fruit in his body.
If calculated based on his age, his bone age during his lifetime was only sixteen, and his cultivation level was only at the mediocre level of seeking Taoism. This kind of cultivation level is easily found in some third-rate immortal cultivation sects.
Who would use such a precious and hard-to-find forbidden fruit from the demon world on a young man with low cultivation like him?
From a cultivation point of view, he is far from worthy of the person behind him spending so much money. From this point of view, the only way to check is from his identity.
While thinking about it, Bai Lian was walking through a long corridor in the deep palace. At this time, the sky was not yet clear and the palace servants who were sweeping the palace could not be seen yet.
But Bailian saw a familiar figure behind a palace pillar.
Erhe buries the heart.
He had a new mask on his face, and the decapitation scar on his neck had also recovered as before. He wore a purple robe and a belt, and his appearance was noble and mysterious.
An extraordinarily slender figure stood in a corner of the shadows, looking as if he was waiting to meet him again.
Balian stopped, his eyes unchanged: "Lord Burial Heart."
Burial Heart walked out of the shadows, with purple jade swaying around his waist. The jade was engraved with vivid dark patterns of orchids. Judging from his taste, there was actually a hint of elegance and interest. His warm voice was the unique magnetism of a mature man. Voice: "Lord Si Chen, can I have a chat with you?"
"Master Buried Heart, what do you need me to ask you?" Balian put his palms behind his back calmly, his expression indifferent.
A faint chuckle came from under the skull mask. This time, he did not beat around the bush and went straight to the point: "Your Majesty and Your Majesty are getting married soon. I just kindly want to remind you that if you want to stay in this world for a long time, , Don’t be deceived by the immediate benefits and mistake disaster for a bright future.”
Bailian said: "What exactly do you want to say?"
The heart-wrenching laughter gradually subsided, and a pair of pupils under the mask flashed inconspicuously: "Your Majesty is definitely not a kind person. People who get too close to her will generally not end well."
A very common divorce plan...
Balian remained unmoved and raised his eyes slightly: "Master Burial Heart's concern comes at the right time."
Zang Xin didn't pay attention to the sarcasm in Bailian's words, but he was very honest: "Everyone in the demon world has selfish motives. I don't deny that I have been deeply hostile to you, Lord Si Chen, from the beginning. After all, you After all, I am not on the same side, everyone has his own position and seeks his own role, and at the moment, the current situation creates the situation, I think Lord Si Chen might as well cooperate with me."
The purpose of his visit was not concealed.
Balian smiled and said: "It's good to enjoy the shade under the green shade tree. If I don't rely on a towering tree like His Majesty the Demon King, why should I rely on your worthless master above?"
The serving lord was ridiculed mercilessly and sharply. He was not angry at all. Instead, he chuckled and said: "Does Master Si Chen think that your majesty's big tree can stand for a long time? You may not know, maybe This big tree with infinite scenery on the surface has long been rotten at the root, and it only needs a gust of east wind to uproot it and replace it!"
Balian's eyes moved slightly, and the fingertips hidden behind his back gently rubbed the palms of his hands. He smiled calmly and said, "It seems that Lord Burial Heart knows a lot of things."
Zhan Xin smiled and said, "If Sir Si Chen is willing to stand on our side, I would like to share many of the things I know with you."
Balian would not let him just go away empty-handed so easily. He couldn't help but take two steps forward, glanced at him with a salty look, and said, "Then we still have to see what Master Buried Heart has in his hands." How sincere."
Balian controlled his expression perfectly. He was neither eager nor enthusiastic, but he also subtly expressed a hint of curiosity.
And this subtle and appropriate performance was exactly what Zhan Xin expected. The eyes hidden under the shadow of the mask were like a hunter sizing up his prey, and a satisfied smile appeared on his lips.
It was just as he suspected.
This young man seems to be a docile sheep, but in fact he is a rebellious wolf. The wild spirit in his heart makes him willing to become a woman's male plaything.
At the return banquet, Zhan Xin could see Bai Lian's resistance and boredom towards the marriage. His Majesty the Demon Lord was such a domineering and domineering character, and his wishes would probably have no effect in front of her.
In the past few days, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the demon king has been acting arbitrarily in setting the wedding date, which implies a forced marriage.
For this reason, he may have developed some resentment towards His Majesty the Demon Lord.
When Zang Xin raised his eyes, the appraising smile in his eyes turned into pity and sympathy: "I heard that after the night court meeting, His Majesty knocked out Lord Si Chen and carried him all the way back to the Hades Palace. His face was very scary at that time. Si Chen Your Excellency, you have been in the Hades Palace for two whole days, I am afraid your life will not be easy, right?"
The Demon Lord carried him back to the palace. Blood and snow drifted all the way, and the palace was enveloped in a sense of murder. The scene really looked like a female ghost walking out of the bloody hell.
Zang Xin didn't even think that after just two days of guarding, he would actually come out of the palace safely.
There was really no need to pretend this time. Bai Lian's face really darkened. After Zang Xin mentioned this, the burns on his body began to hurt faintly again. His face turned cold and he said coldly: "Zang Xin said Kokoro-sama has too many things to worry about."
Seeing that the hatred in Bailian's eyes did not seem to be fake, Zhanxin laughed and patted his shoulder to show his intimacy, but there was a vicious murderous intention in his eyes: "If Lord Si Chen is in need, I am willing to help you." Please help me kill her."
Balian sneered, seeming to be disdainful: "Master Burial Heart had this idea two days ago, but he almost lost his head and lost an important chess piece like Zhi Yuyan. Where did he have the courage to say it now? Such words."
Zang Xin said meaningfully: "External knives can never kill someone. As I said just now, all it takes is a gust of east wind to knock her down. Master Si Chen doesn't know. Your Majesty's life is not going to be the same." How much more?"
A strange light flashed across Balian's eyes, and he looked sideways at him: "What do you mean?"
Burying Heart said: "I guess Lord Si Chen has heard about it for a long time, and there is a forbidden fruit Burning Heart hidden in the demon world."
Bailian's eyes suddenly narrowed, and the palms behind his back slowly clenched into fists, pretending to be puzzled: "Burning Heart Fruit?"
"Yes, it's the Burning Heart Fruit." Zhan Xin said with a smile: "Throughout the ages, if you want to inherit the position of Demon Lord, you must first take the Burning Heart Fruit and taste its misery before you can become a king. . The pain of the Burning Heart Fruit is definitely not something ordinary people can bear. Even the old Demon Lord only dared to take it when he was 70,000 years old and had cultivated his demon heart to a certain level."
Bai Lian's eyebrows were depressed. If he remembered correctly, Demon Lord A'luo was only two thousand years old now.
At less than ten thousand years old, he became the youngest demon king in history.
A'luo was dismembered and sealed more than a thousand years ago. At that time, she had already become a demon and was less than a thousand years old.
Less than a thousand years old, taking the Burning Heart Fruit...
Bailian's eyes were dark, and he quietly stared at the mask on Zang Xin's face.
Zhan Xin smiled enigmatically and said, "Lord Si Chen must have guessed that the Burning Heart Fruit specializes in eating people's minds. If they are not capable of cultivating the heart, they would not be able to withstand this heart-burning calamity. Your Majesty is not like that now." The old demon king has such a strong demonic heart, and for her to forcefully conquer this fruit at such a young age is tantamount to sacrificing her life in exchange for the throne."
Bailian said: "But at that time, she had no choice."
"No." Zhan Xin shook his head and said, "Sir Si Chen, if you think that Your Majesty was forced to eat this fruit by the old devil after the war between immortals and demons, you are really wrong. In fact, at the beginning, the old devil I planned to force her to take the Burning Heart Fruit and ascend to the throne to protect Young Lord Milu from disaster, but I found that he didn't need to force her at all. Your Majesty didn't know when, but the breath of the Burning Heart Fruit had already been left in her body."
Zhanxin said in a deep tone: "This means that she actually ate the Burning Heart Fruit when she was younger and still abandoned the demon. The old demon didn't know when she started coveting the throne, but At that time, the old demon king and I already knew that she was the most suitable sacrifice for Young Master Milu, because no demon could eat the heart-burning fruit at such an age and survive in the end. Crazy as hell."
"Your Majesty's heart is so big that you don't know the heights of heaven and earth. Your Majesty's heart is so cruel that it can hurt you completely."
"Lord Si Chen must have noticed it. Your Majesty, she has always been abnormal."
