This was the first time Lin Xi had heard of this statement.
But...it makes sense.
In fact, the theory of yin and yang covers everything in existence.
Living beings in the material world are born with a physical body, so they practice cultivation to refine their Qi, refine their Qi and transform themselves into their spirits, and refine their spirits to become void... To put it bluntly, they are pursuing a kind of spiritual transcendence.
That can be summarized as training the soul through the body, so as to achieve two-way development, both breakthroughs, breaking limitations, and achieving higher achievements.
The void life in the chaotic tide is born with various soul abilities, but does not have a physical body. Therefore, the final direction of evolution is undoubtedly towards a body that is powerful enough to fully accommodate and bring out the characteristics of its soul.
Zhutian City is the physical body of Zhutian False God. This setting is indeed very reasonable.
It’s no wonder why the core of the All-Heaven City obtained by Kuangshi City Lord, although broken and small, did not collapse or disappear.
Because as a body, its soul has not dissipated.
Lin Xi still didn't speak, still waiting for Master Hu to continue.
"He knows the secrets of Zhutian City, and he also knows that I cannot be completely erased, so in order to control the Zhutian City I left behind, he wants to refine me into a special Horcrux." Lord Hu said.
Lin Xi has been hanging out in the City of Madness for a while, but it's not that bad. He doesn't even know what a Horcrux is.
In the tide of chaos, it is difficult for real matter to exist.
Even if you are lucky enough to arrive at the Chaos Tide, you will be torn apart and annihilated by the surging energy in the Chaos Tide.
But the demons, as intelligent beings, must of course use artifacts.
Therefore, artifacts made from the demon itself or the souls of creatures in the material world came into being.
This is a Horcrux.
Including the bone knife Lin Xi used at the beginning and the dream bead he later owned, they are all forms of Horcruxes.
The former is rough, the latter is different.
As for the truly traditional Horcruxes that circulated in the Tide of Chaos, they still had their own set of fixed forging techniques.
"You escaped?" Lin Xi finally stopped being silent and said nonsense.
Master Hu shook his head and said: "It's not that easy. I...or we have actually been forged successfully. It's just that Xu Bing had bad luck. One of his old rivals rushed out from the material world and fought with him. A decisive battle in the midst of chaos.”
"At the critical moment, his old rival snatched away the Horcrux transformed by 'us', and imported seven virtues into us, sealed the ability of the Horcrux, threw us into the material world, and used the material world to Strict rules block Xu Bing’s pursuit.”
"So we were successfully born and transformed into humans in the material world. Our souls were divided into eight, and the most important part completely became humans. And the remaining seven parts each acquired a virtue as a seal. The ordinary existence seals the Horcrux sleeping deep in the soul."
Lin Xi finally understood all the clues.
"In other words, getting rid of you is equivalent to opening the seal. Truman will be restored to the Horcrux refined by the Lord of Kuangshi City, and be summoned by it to return to the tide of chaos?" Lin Xi does not need an answer to this question, because he has already The result was determined.
"So, you want me to come on behalf of City Lord Kuangshi because you are also aware of the danger. Maybe you can no longer suppress the Horcrux, or maybe you feel that if you continue to be so passive, sooner or later City Lord Kuangshi will I will eradicate you and take back the Horcruxes. No matter what kind...it forces you to take the initiative."
"Three questions then."
"First, why should I help you?"
"Second, why didn't I choose to complete the mission of Kuangshi City Lord?"
“Third, what do I get out of this?”
These three questions, at first glance, seem to be the same question.
Because in the final analysis, the core is to let Master Hu tell him what he needs to pay and what he can get.
Thereby forming a contrast in the heart and making a choice.
But three questions are just three questions.
Lin Xi asked this, of course there was a reason for him to ask.
Mr. Hu was still deep in thought when suddenly Truman's temperament changed again.
The original generous, generous but too calm temperament disappeared.
Instead, he is elegant, sharp and a bit strong and determined.
"Lu Sheng?" Lin Xi asked, looking at Truman's changing temperament.
'Truman' replied: "It's me!"
"Next, I'll talk to you."
"First your first question, why do you want to help us?"
"You are a demon, and your interests come first, so I won't tell you those illusory things. I think you also have ideas about Zhutian City. If we can get rid of control and take back Zhutian City, you will have half of the shares." Lu Sheng said .
Lin Xi shook his head: "No! It's too far! It's too difficult! It's too unreliable!"
The interests represented by Zhutian City are of course huge.
As a Void Merchant reserve, the stopper of many Void Merchant, and a broker in the city under the city, Lin Xi knew how much profit was flowing every day even from Kuangshi City Lord's dilapidated Zhutian City.
If Zhutian City is under the control of the real Zhutian False God, the profits may increase tenfold or a hundredfold.
However, before that, we must first climb the high mountain of Kuangshi City Lord Xu Bing.
The seemingly alluring benefits are right in front of you, but far away.
Therefore, it was really not sincere for Lu Sheng to use this to seduce Lin Xi.
Although the deal... is fair.
"Okay, skip this question and go back to the second one. Why can't you choose to complete the task of the Lord of Kuangshi City?"
"Because no matter whether you complete the task or not, you will not get any benefits."
"As the city lord of a city of knowledge, it is undeniable that his credibility is not bad compared to many ordinary demons. But his nature is greedy and shameless. If you know many things you shouldn't know, he will never I won’t let you live.”
"Perhaps from the moment you get rid of us, he will stir up the heavenly ways of this world, attract the eyes of the true immortals to you, and bury you in this world instead of leading you away."
"Unless...you have never heard Mr. Hu's words and explanations before." Lu Sheng smiled confidently, with a full sense of 'achievement'.
He's fair though.
But it's just fair.
A fair person can also be cunning.
It can also be very shady.
Lin Xi did not regret it and knew the answer.
He was not unhappy with Lu Sheng's attitude.
"I can choose not to help each other, or I can choose to betray you to another third party." Lin Xi was of course referring to Yi Dang.
As a tool demon, this is the time when Yi Waiting can exert his due value.
At worst, Lin Xi will help him raise his two daughters in the future.
"Okay! Then I'll answer your third question." Lu Sheng skipped the previous question again and did not get entangled with Lin Xi on it.
"We know that you want to get a way to break through the Demon Saint Realm. And we... can tell you the direction in advance."
