"Holy shit!? Stone ghost mask? " On the other side, when Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal saw the picture Wang Ling had sent, his entire expression changed. His fingers flew as he typed several sighing and frantic emojis in a row. "Brother Ling, you're so mean! He actually went to look for this stone ghost mask behind my back. How could he not have called me along for such an interesting matter? "
Seeing Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal's reply, Wang Ling was instantly reassured. It was very obvious that Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal knew the specific origins of this stone ghost mask.
"Brother Ling, have you verified what this stone ghost mask is made of?" Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal asked before Wang Ling could ask.
Wang Ling's reply was very short: "Primordial black crystal."
"Yes! This must be the stone ghost mask! "Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal was especially excited." The legendary stone ghost mask is made of primordial black crystal! Speaking of which, where did Brother Ling get this stone ghost mask? "
"I bought it online," Wang Ling answered honestly.
Uh …
Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal was stupefied and couldn't believe this at all …
"Brother Ling … we've been brothers for so many years, please tell me the truth … who on earth is this' online '?"
Wang Ling replied seriously, "Internet …"
This time, Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal rubbed his eyes to confirm that he hadn't misread Wang Ling's reply. He instantly covered his liver and kidneys with his hands, and felt that he really needed to take two bottles of Liuwei Dihuang pills to replenish himself.
… What the f * ck did he buy online?!
Nowadays, online sellers were too powerful. They could even casually buy this kind of banned magic tool online!
Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal was beyond shocked. "Brother Ling … do you know how many people are looking for this stone ghost mask now?"
Then, he took a few minutes to compose his thoughts …
"Back then, after the rumor that Devil Emperor Gua Pi had been sealed came out, there was no one who could stop him. All the Nascent Soul Cultivators around the world were using their subordinates to search for the mask. There's a rumor … that the successor of the mask will inherit Devil Emperor Gua Pi's Daoist teachings and supreme Daoist techniques … Although these rumors have yet to be verified, according to my many years of investigation, there's a seventy percent chance that they're true. This fiend artifact has really caused too many disturbances! "
Wang Ling typed an ellipsis: "…"
No matter how he looked at it, he felt that there was something fishy going on. Leaving aside the fact that the Dao orthodoxy could only be inherited through the Great Blood Origin Technique of the 3,000 Great Daos. Even if Devil Emperor Gua Pi really knew how to use this spell, Wang Ling felt that it was complete nonsense to pass it on to others.
There were many conditions to unleash the Great Blood Origin Technique. One of the strictest conditions was that one had to find a bloodline compatible with the technique. Only then would one be able to perfectly inherit the technique. It was like a bone marrow transplant in medicine. Wang Ling felt it was utter nonsense to find the perfect match among so many people nowadays.
At this point, it was back to the problem of the deep-rooted bad habits of the Cultivators. That is, even if he knew that he might not be a match, he still intended to take the risk and try to obtain even greater power in a short period of time …
The older generation of cultivators often said that one had to rely on oneself to accumulate cultivation step by step. Wang Ling simply couldn't agree more with this saying … it could be said that Wang Ling was one of the victims of an unstable foundation and an inability to precisely control his strength because of the rapid increase in his realm.
Thus, the result of forcefully inheriting a Dao orthodoxy was that the inheritor would go berserk, lose all of his cultivation, and become a cripple.
This was a very risky matter, and it was really painful. The state had always strictly prohibited it, as it was harmful to the body and not beneficial at all. Wang Ling just couldn't figure out why there were still stubborn people who were willing to do such a thing.
Furthermore, taking ten thousand steps back, Wang Ling even felt that this stone ghost mask wasn't inherited from the Dao at all, and was very likely a trap left behind by Devil Emperor Gua Pi …
In fact, Wang Ling wasn't the only one who thought this way. Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal also expressed his concern.
Back to business.
Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal brought the topic back to Devil Emperor Gua Pi. "Brother Ling, do you know why Devil Emperor Gua Pi disappeared back then?"
Hearing Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal's question, Wang Ling was silent for a moment. Old Antique had just gossiped about this matter in theory of history class, and it was still fresh in Wang Ling's mind.
Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal continued, "Back then, Devil Emperor Gua Pi's first true disciple, True Immortal She Pi, I'm sure Brother Ling knows … In the outside world, most of the rumors said that True Immortal She Pi had sealed his injured shifu in order to seize power. But in fact, that wasn't the case. I heard through the grapevine that the master and disciple were very close. "
Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal said slowly, "Actually, at that time, Devil Emperor Gua Pi had been researching how to break the Great Devil Sealing Wave …"
Seeing this text in the chat window, Wang Ling couldn't help raising his eyebrows. Not only had he heard of this spell before, he also knew how to cast it.
This was a spell that had been specially developed to deal with people with evil intentions and crooked doctrines, and was also one of the Three Thousand Great Spells.
"This Great Devil Sealing Wave had always been a thorn in Devil Emperor Gua Pi's side, so he had always been obsessed with researching a way to break it. After decades of research, it seemed that he had found a way to break the Great Devil Sealing Wave. Thus, he asked his disciple, True Immortal She Pi, to cast the Great Devil Sealing Wave on himself to confirm the feasibility of breaking it … "
Wang Ling listened very attentively. "And then?"
"And then? There was no 'and then' … "
Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal sent a shrug emoji. "In the end, Devil Emperor Gua Pi was sealed in the stone ghost mask just like that. And he never got the chance to come out again. "
After listening to the whole story, Wang Ling really didn't have the strength to ridicule it. "…"
"So all these years, I've been running all over the place looking for the stone ghost mask. This thing is a magic weapon, and we have to pay attention to it. If it falls into the hands of someone with evil intentions, it'll definitely be a catastrophe. Although in theory, the stone ghost mask isn't a true magic weapon … who told this Devil Emperor Gua Pi to be sealed inside, and now he's like a weapon spirit, "Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal said.
Wang Ling: "…"
For a grand Devil Emperor to fall to this level … Wang Ling felt that there really wasn't anyone else in the world who could do this except for Devil Emperor Gua Pi.
Of course, if he had to find someone else with the same 'gua pi' attribute, Wang Ling felt that Loopy Toad, as a demon king, would definitely be at the top of the list.
After listening to Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal's explanation, most of Wang Ling's doubts about the stone ghost mask had been dispelled. The only thing he still hadn't gotten an explanation for was whether the stone ghost mask was a twin magic weapon.
After reading Wang Ling's message, Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal couldn't help nodding. "As expected of Brother Ling! You can even think of twin magic weapons! Actually, I've been a little suspicious for a long time … think about it, countless people look for the stone ghost mask every year, but no one has ever been able to clearly sense Devil Emperor Gua Pi's aura. Why is that? If it's Brother Ling's thinking, then everything makes sense. I also think that the stone ghost mask in Brother Ling's hands is just a replica, and the original is definitely hidden. But I still want to see it for myself before I say anything else. By the way, Brother Ling, when should we meet up? "
Meet up?
Wang Ling was going to refuse at first.
