After reading the contents of Xiyue's letter, Chen Ping could not calm down for a long time.
"Chi Liang is indeed not the only demon who has entered the human world."
According to Xi Yue's description, after Xi Yue returned to Tianyan Sect, she immediately launched a series of investigations into the demon clan and the issue of channel confinement.
When she replied to Chen Ping's letter, a lot of information was not fully understood, but one thing was certain. The Nascent Soul cultivators who died in the vast sea in Central Continent were, like her, channel confinement donors.
In addition, other imprisoned donors were attacked without success.
After verifying information from multiple parties, we came to the conclusion:
Not only Chi Liang entered the human world, but also other demons.
Xiyue guessed that the demons had found other ways to enter the human world, but this method could not allow the demon army to quickly enter the human world at the same time. It was likely that they could only enter individually.
But this means that the demons can continue to copy Chi Liang's method of entering the human world.
As long as time lasts long enough, many demons will enter the human world.
Xiyue mentioned that they are working hard to find such loopholes and kill the demons.
But the human world is too vast and boundless.
Just the size of the Misty Continent is enough to give people a headache.
Only Yuanying and a small number of high-level golden elixirs can do this. And in order to prevent the news of the demons entering the human world from spreading widely and causing excessive panic, they, the imprisoned donors, have not even decided to make this news public.
This means fewer people are available.
Under such circumstances, it would be extremely difficult to find a loophole from the demon world to the human world.
This is why Xiyue said - 'The demon race is unstoppable when it enters the human world'.
Chen Ping collected Xi Yue’s jade slips.
Sighed.
This letter was written one month after Xiyue returned to Tianyan Sect, which is very early in the timeline.
The current news brought back by Peak Master Sima just verified what Xi Yue said was correct.
Doesn't the two men's sneak attack on Xiyue mean that Chi Liang is not the only demon who has entered the human world?
From what Xiyue said, they had already started setting up a trap to lure out the demons from the time they wrote the letter. According to Xiyue's intelligence, after being tricked once by Chi Liang, it is unlikely that she would be fooled so easily a second time.
From this point of view, the sneak attack by two demons this time might have been intentional on her part.
In order to draw out the demons.
If this is the case, her life is probably not in danger.
There is no need to worry about this.
only.
More than twelve years have passed since the last time I met Chi Liang. In these twelve years alone, countless demons have entered the human world.
Presumably no less.
'There's going to be chaos. '
And this time, it is not just the Qingyun Domain that is in chaos, but the entire human world. It is impossible to move to another place to develop.
No one can predict where the demons will launch a massive attack.
'In this world, there are only a few days to live in peace. '
Chen Ping went out for a trip and went to the Utensil Hall to buy some blank jade slips and asked for a user manual.
Returning to Xiaozhufeng's quiet room, she closed the door and began to reply to Xiyue.
Xiyue's letter may have been written in a hurry, as it basically only mentioned the demon clan.
But Chen Ping wanted to know much more than that.
He started writing according to the instructions for using the jade slip.
Burning jade slips can only be done by using the power of Jindan. It is a necessary skill for Jindan masters.
It's not difficult, you can learn it once you learn it.
[Dear Master: One day without seeing you is like three autumns. ]
[…]
[I also ask Master to investigate the matter of the Seven-Star Longyuan Sword on your behalf, and don’t forget it. ]
[...Every time the battle between humans and demons is approaching, I feel worried and uneasy. All are caused by low strength. I wonder if Master has some good body-training techniques? When such a war is inevitable, it will not be a drag on Master. ]
[…The Lingxiao Sect is remote and far away, and its resources are scarce. When the master sends the exercises, it would be a great thing if he could also send a package of medicinal materials for ten or twenty years. ]
[...The master's brave and heroic appearance when he used the formation to trap Chi Liang could not be forgotten in his disciple's mind. That was the most beautiful showdown between the weak and the strong that my disciple had ever seen. Since then, the disciple has been thinking about the battle method in order to carry forward the great achievements of his master. I wonder if Master can give me a set of books and array equipment for the third-level mountain guarding formation? ]
[...When the master used the best spiritual stones in Canglan Grassland, the disciple had never seen such a pure spiritual stone. He was very shocked by the spiritual stones. I wonder if the master can give one or two as a gift? Master, please don’t misunderstand, my disciple is not a person who lacks spiritual stones. I just wanted to observe and learn. ]
[...I feel deeply ashamed to have made so many requests to Master in one go. Besides, Master may have to buy some resources to get them. I originally wanted to include some spiritual stones. But the disciple changed his mind. If the fate between you and me as master and disciple is mixed with the smell of spiritual stones, it will make the disciple unreasonable. ]
[…]
[Apprentice: Chen Ping. ]
After burning the entire jade slip, Chen Ping took back the power of the golden elixir, and then used his spiritual power to put his own spiritual brand and seal on the jade slip.
Finally, follow Xiyue’s method and add a password prompt:
"What am I to you?"
Answer: Brother.
Carve it, and call it a day.
I only hope that Xiyue can receive the jade slips soon and bring these resources and information, otherwise the war between humans and demons will really come, and his current strength is really not enough to deal with it.
After sealing the jade slip, Chen Ping took out the second jade slip and wrote a letter to his wife Yu Lingchun.
Please be safe and gave some unique answers to some of the confusions she mentioned about practicing magic.
By the way, he urged her to practice seriously.
The two jade slips were handed over to Yun Haitang that night.
A few days later, Chen Ping went to the Sutra Collection Pavilion again and exchanged a copy of "The Art of Condensing the Breath. Golden Elixir" and "The Art of Dragon Flame".
95% of the contents of "Breathing Concentration Technique - Golden Elixir Chapter" and "Breathing Concentration Technique - Foundation Establishment Chapter" are the same, with only a small amount of strengthening content being different.
The Breath Condensation Technique is a basic spell and is easy to practice.
"Dragon Flame Technique" is an advanced version of "Dragon Fire Technique". It is also an offensive spell, but it is not too offensive and is a spell that many monks know.
What Chen Ping wanted was not his attack power, but the third level flames.
These simple spells were easy for him and not time-consuming, but learning them could save his life at critical moments.
Half a year later, he reached the full level of three spells: "Breath Condensation Technique: Golden Elixir", "Dragon Flame Technique", and "Five Elements Escape Technique: Golden Escape".
Fire escape is more difficult, but I am still practicing it slowly.
…
"Husband, Yunfeng has sent a message that something happened in Nanzi Lingtian." When Chen Ping was practicing in the quiet room, Yun Haitang came in a hurry, with anxiety in his tone.
When Chen Ping first heard Yun Haitang mention Yunfeng, he thought it was because the arrowhead grass in Nanzi Lingtian was effective and he came to report.
After all, more than half a year has passed, and it is almost the season for the arrowgrass harvest.
Unexpectedly, something happened. Chen Ping hurriedly said:
"What happened?"
"The information is incomplete. It's just the information brought back by the messenger. It is said that the stationed foundation building is infected with evil spirits." Yun Haitang originally wanted to go there by herself, but thinking that something happened to the foundation building, she might not be able to solve it, so she hurried over to look for it. Chen Ping.
Evil?
There is a sect in Qingyun Territory, and its popularity is not too declining. It is generally difficult for evil spirits to grow to a terrifying state.
In other words, things are different now, and there are no evil spirits in Yunyu that he can't deal with.
Chen Ping stood up and said:
"Let's go and have a look."
A streak of light passed by, and within a moment of burning incense, a golden elixir and a ninth-level monk appeared in the mountain cave next to Nanzi Lingtian.
"Peak Master."
Seeing Chen Ping and Yun Haitang appear, Zhuji and Yunfeng who were stationed there quickly greeted them.
The foundation-building monk stationed there didn't look very good.
A patch of skin on one arm was shriveled.
"What's going on?" Chen Ping looked at his injury. It was not too minor. If a monk in the Qi Refining Stage was infected with this injury, even if he did not die on the spot, he would become evil in the future.
But with the words of the foundation-building monks, it should be possible.
Upon hearing Chen Ping's question, the stationed foundation-building monk quickly explained.
It turns out that some time ago, Nanzi Lingtian frequently encountered evil spirits when Ling Zhihu hit him.
This is normal in the wilderness.
The most common thing to encounter when clearing wasteland for planting in the wild is monsters and evil spirits.
This has happened occasionally over the past few years.
Therefore, the garrison base builder did not report to the superiors.
Instead, choose to solve it yourself.
I killed two very weak evil spirits one after another, and I thought I had solved the problem. I never thought that another evil incident occurred a few days ago.
"I thought it was just an ordinary evil spirit. I set up an ambush to pursue it last night, but I never thought that this evil spirit was not that simple. If I hadn't brought a lot of evil evil talismans with me, I might not have been able to come back." The garrison at the foundation building said. I still feel sad about this.
Next, he recounted his own battle with evil spirits.
Through the description of the combat power of the foundation-building monks, Chen Ping knew the general situation.
The evil spirit is about as expected, not too strong.
It was almost as powerful as the evil one he met when he rescued Yunfeng.
He said clearly:
"Your injuries are not fatal. Practice the Calming Mantra every day to get rid of distracting thoughts, and use the Evil Killing Talisman to suppress it. You will be able to recover in a few months."
"Just let me deal with the evil spirits."
I am currently short of an evil spirit training hand.
In the past, he would not necessarily actively seek out evil spirits to practice evil arts.
But it's different now.
If what awaits in the future is a war between humans and demons, then what does this little adventure mean now?
If a little risk taking now can gain more chances of survival in the future war between humans and demons, then such efforts will be worth it.
Besides, it's just a second-level evil spirit that keeps offending his spiritual field.
That night, Chen Ping gathered his breath and garrisoned Nanzi Lingtian.
Unfortunately, no evil spirits appeared.
The same goes for the second day and the third day...
Chen Ping had no choice but to walk out of Lingtian, and according to the battle scene described by the foundation-building monk, he went more than three hundred miles south, and even entered the territory of another sect.
Unfortunately, the evil spirit still hasn't appeared.
Chen Ping was not in a hurry and just kept guard.
It was not until half a month later, when he was more than 300 miles south of Nanzi Lingtian, that he finally felt that the evil-killing talisman in his arms was heating up.
"finally come."
At this moment, Chen Ping was a herb-gathering monk who had reached the stage of refining his breath. He put away a flower of medicinal herbs in his hand and looked forward.
Standing under a big tree in the forest is a female figure wearing a burgundy dress.
With his back to Chen Ping, his feet were bare.
Her white feet stepped on a piece of grass.
A bell hung from his ankle that would not ring.
Seeing Chen Ping looking over, her body did not turn, but her neck turned 180 degrees.
The back of the head and the front suddenly changed directions.
Grinning at Chen Ping.
Dark red bloody tears flowed from her eyes, and a horrifying laughter came from her mouth.
He flashed towards Chen Ping in the blink of an eye.
In the next breath, a giant plaque-shaped stone tablet suddenly appeared, and Li Jue's exclamation was sucked into the stone tablet before he could even utter a voice.
It's all over in the blink of an eye.
Chen Ping stopped chanting spells and casting spells.
Holding the stone tablet under one arm, he flew away into the sky with a whoosh, and quickly returned to Xiaozhu Peak.
Returning to the quiet room, he first put down the stone tablet, then took out hundreds of evil-killing charms, and covered the inside and outside of the quiet room with evil-killing charms. Then he sat down in front of the desk and looked at the stone tablet.
This painting of a hundred ghosts walking at night was originally a picture of three beauties taking a bath, but since Chen Ping eliminated the evil spirits, the portraits of the three beauties taking a bath have become dim, like a practice work carved by the poorest painter. .
But at this moment, one of the beautiful girls actually became lifelike.
The skin is fair and fair, as if it can be broken by a blow.
The white gauze on her body is crumbling, and the beautiful scenery is looming.
People can't help but have the desire to touch.
However, Chen Ping knew how powerful this magic weapon was. Even if the evil spirit was captured by him, he still did not dare to take it lightly.
This magic weapon has the function of imprisoning evil spirits when used in conjunction with magic spells.
He knew this when he was refining the magic weapon.
The power of the magic weapon depends on the monk himself.
In other words, because this evil spirit is only as strong as a foundation-building monk, Chen Ping can easily include it in the painting. If he encounters an evil spirit that is comparable to the golden elixir or even the Nascent Soul, even if he has the Night Walk of One Hundred Ghosts in hand, he still does not have the ability to conquer it instantly.
At this moment, Chen Ping was fumbling around silently reciting incantations, casting spells, and injecting spiritual power into the stone tablet.
Try to communicate with evil spirits.
Although ghost control and beast control both contain the word "control", they are two completely different concepts.
The reason why evil spirits can become evil spirits is because these creatures had desires or resentments because of certain things or people during their lifetime.
Such thoughts are collectively called obsessions.
After the living beings returned to the Dao, due to some reasons, these obsessions were not released. As they gathered together, they continued to absorb the residual thoughts and filth in the environment.
Eventually it grows into an evil spirit.
The first step in the art of controlling ghosts is to empathize with the evil spirits, know where their obsessions lie, and resolve their obsessions for them.
In this way, this evil spirit can be used by him.
Chen Ping injected his spiritual consciousness into the magic weapon. Under the consciousness space, he felt as if he was beside the hot spring pool of the stone monument.
In the hot spring, when the evil spirit saw Chen Ping, it immediately wanted to pounce on him, but when it thought of Chen Ping's golden elixir cultivation, it immediately backed down.
He took a few steps back in horror.
The veil was lightly covered, and the face looked frightened.
Chen Pingyuan originally wanted to persuade her with his reasoning, but maybe it was because he had deceived her just now with his Qi Refining Stage cultivation. At this moment, Nu Xie Sui had a look of distrust on his face.
Chen Ping tried to risk his life several times to attack, causing the hot spring pool to be filled with white mist and splashing water.
Chen Ping decided to use force.
This is also a characteristic of ghost control.
The magic weapon can support monks to forcibly empathize with evil spirits, and because only part of the monk's spiritual consciousness enters the magic weapon, there is no need to worry about backlash.
You only need to be on guard against evil spirits rushing out of the magic weapon and injuring your own body, or evil spirits surging out and dragging the monk's body into the Night Walk of One Hundred Ghosts.
The spiritual thought moved slightly, and a white line of spiritual power shot towards Xie Sui in an instant, and Xie Sui was restrained in an instant.
Among the magic weapons, Xie Sui's combat effectiveness seemed to be greatly reduced when facing the monk who cast the spell. On the contrary, Chen Ping, who had refined this magic weapon in advance, had greatly increased his combat effectiveness in the magic weapon.
One increase and one decrease, and you can easily surrender.
A ray of his consciousness instantly flew into Xie Sui's body.
In an instant, Chen Ping saw countless pictures.
