He Gu never expected that the devil hiding in the darkness on the opposite side would actually mention the Yin Formation, one of the innate Yin and Yang Formations, and accurately target his master with just a few words of his own.
The implication is that the other party has peeked into the innate Yang Formation hidden in his body.
And if you think about it, it's not just that.
When their masters first discovered the innate yin-yang formation on the first floor of the upside-down tower, Leng Qingzhu told him that each innate formation was unique, and in history, there was no similar description of this formation. past records.
Even his master didn't know the innate yin-yang formation beforehand. He only knew the name of the formation after he recognized the master, but the other party actually knew it!
The innate formation between heaven and earth will only return to heaven and earth after the person who recognizes its master dies, so the other party cannot be one of the previous owners of the innate yin-yang formation.
In short, it is incredible that the other party can know each other.
As if facing a formidable enemy, He Gu's face showed a solemn look, his hand under his sleeve robe tightly grasped the hilt of the sword, and the spiritual power in his body began to flow secretly.
Now he very much doubted whether the previous huge suction force was caused by the old devil in front of him, aiming at the innate Yang Formation on his body.
After having this suspicion, he scanned the top with his spiritual consciousness, only to find that there was no trace of the suction above his head.
I am more certain about this guess.
At the same time, he was also a little shocked. That suction force was extraordinary, far beyond what ordinary cultivators could use.
His situation is very bad!
As if he had an insight into He Gu's little thoughts, the old monster chuckled.
"What's the name of the young boy? Don't be nervous. I'm just curious. I won't do anything to you. You just need to answer a few questions honestly."
He Guke couldn't believe it.
Although he had only recently come into contact with demons, he had often heard from the elders in the sect that most demons talked like farts and did not take their words seriously compared to humans.
However, he was also quite concerned about the information about the innate yin-yang formation from the old devil.
Immediately he took courage and headed towards the dark place ahead, asking confidently back: "Young man, why do you dare to ask the old man how he knows that I have the innate formation in my body?"
The name was very ordinary, and the old monster had no memory of it, and he couldn't connect any information related to it in his mind.
He casually replied: "Well... I have never seen it with my own eyes, but its imitation has been passed on to me, and the aura characteristics are naturally very familiar to me."
He Gu was surprised and immediately became confused: "Imitation?"
"It's a fake of the formation in your body."
The old monster seemed to be feeling emotional as he spoke, and continued to talk while recalling.
"In ancient times, our clan once had an old demon who was a genius. For a while, he had the opportunity to come into contact with the innate yin and yang formation of the ownerless form. Unfortunately, the conditions for identifying the master were harsh and he failed to succeed.
But he was unwilling to give up, so through continuous observation and research, he created an incomplete version of the acquired cultivation method with similar effects, and named it "The Acquired Yin and Yang Formation".
In the end, this exercise was hidden in an ancient monument, and fell into the hands of the old man by chance. The old man also learned about this ancient secret through the records in the exercise. "
Being able to imitate the most mysterious innate formations in the world and create similar cultivation techniques, even though the person the old devil is talking about is also a devil, He Gu can't help but admire him from the bottom of his heart.
The old man's unpleasant hoarse voice continued to be heard in the darkness.
"But you don't have to worry. Although there are many people in the world who can detect the faint aura of the formation on your body, generally strong people will only treat it as a magic weapon that you are carrying.
Apart from the old man, there may be only two people left in the world who can be distinguished. "
He Gu thought so, otherwise his master wouldn't have just told him not to use it casually, without saying anything else.
But thinking that there are still two people who can identify it, my heart is still tight.
Frowning, he quickly asked: "Which two people?"
Hearing his question, the old monster suddenly had a strong sense of pride in his tone: "The Yin-Yang Demon Couple, hehe... I wonder if you, kid, have heard of it?"
He Gu had naturally heard of the most notorious Yin-Yang Demon Couple in Xuandao Continent.
Rumor has it that they were a pair of perverted Taoist couples who were ruthless and committed all kinds of evil, and they had a brother-sister relationship with each other.
Men only love to suck the blood of women, and women only love to suck the blood of men. Even among demons, they are extremely picky eaters.
Whether they are monsters, humans, demons, or demons, they are all within their indiscriminate hunting range. When he was full, he still managed to follow some rules, but once his appetite aroused, he took action completely regardless of the distinction between enemy and friendly camps.
Even within the demon clan, which is extremely committed to preying on the weak, it is still a category that is disgusted and deliberately stayed away from.
When other demons unite to face the outside world, they will not remain silent, and they will suddenly attack the same kind or even their fighting companions.
The Yin-Yang Demon Couple not only knew how to do it, but also killed an elder of the Holy Land of the Demon Clan who was in charge of the command on the key battlefield where the Demon Clan fought against the alliance between humans and demons, leading to the ultimate goal of the Demon Clan's invasion and plunder in that battle. Not even a bit of it came to fruition.
But in the end, the Yin Yang Demon Couple was fine. As for the reason, no one except the Magic Mountain Holy Land knew.
Outsiders speculate that the Holy Land values the unique abilities of the Yin-Yang Demon Couple and cannot bear to obliterate them. They have no choice but to turn a blind eye and treat the matter as a trivial matter.
The Yin Yang Demon Couple's unique and frightening ability is rumored to be that it can bounce all the enemy's Taoist attacks back to the original path.
This is slightly different from the innate yin and yang formation that he and Leng Qingzhu mastered.
The formation they mastered can absorb Taoist attacks for a short period of time, and they can choose any direction to attack back.
From the core effect alone, the two are indeed very similar.
In the past, he didn't think there was any relationship between the two. After all, there was only one innate formation in the world, but now after the old devil's explanation, his thoughts suddenly changed.
Thinking of this, He Gu suddenly realized the answer behind it.
"Did the Yin Yang Demon Couple practice the ancient technique in the hands of the old man?"
The old man smiled conspiratorially: "You guessed it right, those brothers and sisters are the most proud disciples of the old man in his life."
When these words reached He Gu's ears, it was like a thunderbolt.
It wasn't because his guess was confirmed by the other party, but because he said, "He is the most proud disciple of the old man in this life."
The Yin and Yang Demon Couples are all powerful men who have been in the Nine Realms for many years, and the probability of being their master will not be lower than this level.
In other words, the old demon in the darkness opposite should also be a top powerhouse, and it would be easy to kill him!
It seemed that he hadn't communicated with others like this for a long time. The old man in the darkness didn't notice anything strange about He Gu, and was still immersed in emotion.
"It took me half of my life just to find them who meet the conditions for cultivation. After all, these days it is really not easy to find a man and a woman who meet both the yang and yin attributes, and both of them are close relatives.
Although the sage created the acquired cultivation method that was born out of the innate formation, it no longer has to rely on the innate yin-yang formation itself, and the practice is not limited to uniqueness. But the training conditions have become more demanding, with an additional bloodline requirement.
In this world, the two disciples of Lao Chan may be the first pair of cultivators who meet the conditions and successfully practice. "
After hearing the end, He Gu felt inexplicably relieved.
He didn't want to be told that he had a very close blood relationship with his master.
As if he had just come to his senses, the old monster smiled meaningfully and said: "You are quite naughty. It was the old man who wanted to ask you questions, but now you have asked him a few questions first."
"It's a good old man who allows me to talk too much." He Gu bowed briefly and quickly flattered him.
Forced by the situation, he had already thought clearly that saving his life was the most important thing at this moment.
You have to pretend to be coward when you should, so as not to make the other party angry and be easily crushed to death here.
The old monster seems to be very useful. This is the first time in three hundred years that someone has praised someone well, and the other person's apparent identity is still a disciple of a large barbarian clan.
And because there were many special things about the descendants in front of him that interested him, it was rare for him to be patient today.
Of course, the main reason is that he just took the risk to go against the suppression formation once, and now he can no longer use any force for a period of time.
Otherwise, he really planned to capture the kid in front of him and study it carefully.
Immediately, he knocked out angrily: "Then you won't answer the old man's question?"
After roughly knowing the opponent's strength, He Gu did not dare to lie easily and answered truthfully.
"Indeed, as the old man speculated, the boy's master is the one who recognizes the master of the other half of the Yin Formation."
The old monster had no doubt that he was there, so he asked a further question: "Then is your master also a member of the demon clan?"
He Gu tried his best to pick out the truthful part of his answer: "Probably not...Old senior, to be honest, I'm not sure. However, Master treats me very well and often tells me not to expose my identity."
Not noticing any abnormal fluctuations in He Gu's eyes, the old monster suddenly fell into deep thought.
There is an idea that the master of the younger generation in front of me is a barbarian. He was lucky enough to discover the place where the innate yin and yang formation was born, and then he kept looking for suitable male cultivators with yin and yang attributes in order to master the formation.
Perhaps due to some kind of helplessness and compromise, he finally decided to let He Gu, a demon, take his place. To this end, he helped him hide his identity as a demon in the barbarian society.
This is not bad, but it is just Master He Gu’s personal behavior.
Considering that He Gu was in a formidable enemy camp like Wuzong, the old man had another bad guess.
Maybe all this is some kind of conspiracy by Wu Zong, and Wu Zong is also involved in it.
This perfectly explains why He Gu has been able to survive safely in the human clan until now.
Regardless of whether it is the first or the second situation, the current situation of his cheap junior has a somewhat subtle meaning for both the demon and human races, especially now that he was hit in advance.
As someone who came from the Holy Land of Lingshan, he was extremely aware of the strategic importance of the formation abilities mastered by the Yin-Yang Demon Couple to the demon clan.
The effect of the innate Yin-Yang formation is far more powerful than the incomplete version of the acquired Yin-Yang formation.
For the demon clan, its importance is naturally even higher.
What he was unsure about at this time was whether He Gu would stand on the side of the barbarians or the demons of his ancestral bloodline in the future.
What's even worse is that he doesn't care whether he will have the freedom to choose in the future.
There is no guarantee that he will become the forbidden wife of Wu Zong or Master He Gu in the future.
In the innate yin and yang formation, the yin and yang formations are indispensable, otherwise the other formation will only become a decoration, so he is not worried about He Gu's life or death at all, nor is he in a hurry to bring He Gu back to the demon clan.
Fortune and misfortune depend on each other, and the relationship between prey and hunter is not fixed. If done properly, it can often be reversed.
If you want to maximize the strategic value of He Gu, you must naturally find a way to bring his master back to the Western Demon Territory.
It would be best if the other party voluntarily betrays the barbarian tribe.
Although the difficulty seems very high, the old monster himself likes to challenge the impossible. It was this mentality that allowed him to persevere until he finally found the Yin Yang Demon Couple, his proud disciples.
In addition to the acquired yin-yang formation, this was the first time in his life that he came into contact with the innate yin-yang formation that was closely related to the legendary old demon. This made him believe in the mission hint brought by fate.
After pondering again and again, the old monster hiding in the darkness looked at the little lamb not far away in front of him, and began to follow the temptation.
"He Gu, do you want to conquer your master?"
