Following the footprints left behind by Dugu Weiwei, Chu Xiu and the others continued forwards for nearly an hour. But along the way, they still hadn't encountered anything. Everything was barren.
But along the way, besides the footprints, Lu Jianghe also dug out a grotesquely shaped skeleton, as if it were some sort of vicious beast. But, all of them had been slapped to death by Dugu Weiwo with a single slap. It was clear that nothing in this Primitive Devil Cave could threaten him.
But along the way, besides that strange tree that they didn't know whether it was an animal or a plant, Chu Xiu and the others didn't see a single living thing. This even made Chu Xiu and the others suspect that all of the living things here had been killed by Dugu Weiwei.
Only that strange tree remained. Because of its tenacious vitality, it could still grow even after being smashed into a tree root.
"Just how big is Primitive Devil Cave?" Chu Xiu couldn't help but ask.
Wei Shuya thought for a moment and shook his head, "No one knows exactly how big it is, but this place is very strange. The space inside is distorted, and if you keep walking in one direction, you won't reach the end. Instead, you'll come out from another direction. So with so many people entering, even if everyone goes in different directions, there's still a chance that they'll converge together. "
Just as Chu Xiu was about to say something, Lu Jiang He suddenly said, "There's something in front of us!"
Everyone focused their eyes and saw that what appeared in front of them was a deep and serene mountain valley that emitted an extremely uncomfortable feeling.
Lu Jiang He said, "The footprints extend all the way into the mountain valley, but I can guarantee with my integrity that there are definitely some profound mysteries inside, and it might even be very dangerous. In the past, the Church Master was able to come out, but if it was us, we might not be able to. So, whether we go in or find a way to get out, it's up to you. "
Chu Xiu only hesitated for a moment before saying, "Let's go in."
In truth, the treasures of the Primitive Devil Cave were secondary. Right now, Chu Xiu really wanted to know everything about Dugu Weiwei, including the traces he had left behind.
Lu Jiang He shrugged and followed Chu Xiu inside.
Some of the surrounding martial artists chose to retreat, but most of the righteous martial artists also chose to follow closely behind them.
Chu Xiu was in front of them, and they had Ling Yunzi, who was in the Mysterious Realm of Heaven and Earth, with them. What was there to be afraid of?
Stepping into the valley, Chu Xiu and the others were instantly shrouded in darkness.
It was true darkness, a darkness without any light.
It was as if the valley had devoured all light.
However, none of the people present were weak. Their perception was astonishing. Even if they couldn't see, they could still sense the path. Hence, they kept walking forward.
However, as they walked, no one realized that everyone's perception was weakening. From a hundred zhang, to a hundred zhang, and then to a distance of a few inches around their bodies. In the end, it was completely suppressed, to the point that they couldn't even sense the people around them.
But no one noticed, and they were still walking forward numbly.
Chu Xiu's eyes were filled with darkness, and that feeling made him very uncomfortable. He waved his hand and threw the silk quilt covering his body aside. Rubbing his head, Chu Xiu stood up from the bed. The sunlight outside shone into the exquisite European-style bedroom, giving Chu Xiu a very familiar but also very strange feeling.
Rubbing his head again, Chu Xiu pushed the door open. A middle-aged man in a tuxedo with his hair combed came over and said softly, "Young Master, the game company has sent your customized holographic game helmet. Would you like to take a look?"
"Oh? Let's go take a look. "
Walking downstairs, Chu Xiu took a delicate game helmet and played with it. He was a little annoyed.
"Young Master, are you going to try it now?"
Chu Xiu shook his head and said, "Forget it, get me something to eat first."
The middle-aged butler was a little confused. The young master used to be most interested in this kind of thing. He had been talking about this game helmet for a long time. Now that it was finally delivered, why didn't he seem to be in a good mood? Angry after waking up?
But as a butler, his biggest obligation was to satisfy everything the master needed. In less than ten minutes, a steak had been sent to Chu Xiu's table.
Chewing the medium-rare, juicy steak, this feeling was very familiar, but the knife in his hand gave him an even more familiar feeling.
"Did I play games too late last night and not get enough sleep?"
Chu Xiu frowned. Since he got up, there was always a feeling of annoyance shrouding him. This feeling made him very uncomfortable.
At this time, there was a sudden doorbell outside. After a while, the middle-aged butler led a young man in his thirties, dressed in a decent suit, wearing gold-rimmed glasses, and neatly combed hair.
Chu Xiu seemed to vaguely remember that he was a trusted confidant of his second brother. What was his name again? I clearly saw him some time ago, why can't I remember?
The young man walked to Chu Xiu's table and looked down at him condescendingly, without the slightest respect that a young master of the Lin family should have.
"Young Master, Mr. Lin said that he doesn't care if you eat, drink, and play outside, but if you use the name of the Lin family to offend people outside, that is your fault.
Last time at the cruise party, Mr. Li's father is Mr. Lin's business partner. Mr. Li was very angry.
Because of you, a business worth hundreds of millions might be affected, and Mr. Lin is also very angry.
But no matter what, you are still a member of the Lin family, and Mr. Lin will help you deal with this, but please don't go out during this time.
The Lin family can tolerate useless people, but we can't tolerate people who spoil the family's reputation and drag us down. "
Chu Xiu listened to all this expressionlessly, then suddenly waved at the young man. "Come here, come closer."
The young man frowned, but still took two steps forward. He was puzzled. "What do you want …"
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xiu grabbed his collar and pressed his entire head onto the table.
"I really don't like it when someone looks down on me and talks to me."
The young man was just about to struggle when the knife in Chu Xiu's hand fell heavily. With a "puchi" sound, it pierced through the young man's neck!
In an instant, blood spurted out, splattering on Chu Xiu's face.
The middle-aged steward was scared silly, and he stared at everything with his mouth agape.
But Chu Xiu didn't care, stabbing the young man's neck again and again until the young man's body was too weak to resist, not even twitching. Only then did Chu Xiu throw the young man's body to the side.
Touching the blood that had splattered on his face, Chu Xiu actually put it into his mouth and sucked it. He shook his head and said, "Everything else is similar, except for one thing. The taste of blood is wrong."
The expression on the middle-aged steward, who was scared silly, completely changed. He revealed a puzzled expression and asked, "Why is it wrong? This is the taste of blood in your memory. "
Chu Xiu said lightly, "It is the taste of blood in my memory, but this is the taste of the blood of a martial artist in my memory. How can the blood of an ordinary person contain such great power? "
The middle-aged steward said in annoyance, "So that's how it is. But it's not that I'm not perfect enough, it's that you're too strange. You're the only person I've ever seen with two completely different sets of memories."
Chu Xiu immediately frowned. What did he say? He had two sets of memories in his body?
Everything about his past life didn't just involve memories. If he said that he had two souls, or that his soul and body didn't match, Chu Xiu could understand.
But he said that he had two sets of memories. Everything about his past life didn't leave any traces. Only memories? This seemed to be similar to some of the possibilities that Yuan Ji had analyzed for Chu Xiu in the past.
"You, what exactly are you?"
Chu Xiu didn't delve into the matter of memories. Instead, he was very curious about the thing in front of him.
Chu Xiu's current mental strength and spirit were already extremely strong. It was extremely difficult to make him fall for it.
In the end, Chu Xiu had fallen for it unknowingly. Even at the beginning, he only felt a little irritated and uncomfortable, but he didn't notice anything wrong at all.
What really made him wake up completely was the blood.
In terms of personality, the Chu Xiu of his past life and the Chu Xiu of this life were basically two different people. Everything about his past life was like a memory that was about to disappear into thin air.
In his previous life, the young master who only knew how to endure and was treated as trash by others, who only knew how to eat, drink, and have fun was already dead. When had the Chu Xiu of this life suffered such humiliation?
The personality in his subconscious affected Chu Xiu. No matter how real the illusion was, it couldn't affect Chu Xiu's subconscious. Therefore, the thing in front of him didn't expect that Chu Xiu would directly kill people, and through the difference in blood, he completely reacted and got rid of the illusion.
The thing said, "I'm not a thing. I'm an inner demon."
Chu Xiu was stunned. He didn't seem to expect that the other party would say everything just like that.
"Inner demon? A martial artist's inner demon? How can such a thing have a physical body? How can it have consciousness? "
Of course, Chu Xiu knew about inner demons. As long as one was a martial artist, they would have to face inner demons in their cultivation.
However, most people could suppress them. Those who couldn't would either go berserk and suffer a backlash in their cultivation technique.
Or they would become more and more extreme in their actions and lose control of their own hearts, causing them to make many wrong choices. The situation would worsen.
However, inner demons originated from martial artists. Without martial artists, how could there be inner demons?
The inner demon spread out its hands and said, "I don't know what happened either. My previous master died here about eight thousand years ago.
When he died, his soul disappeared, and his inner demons dispersed.
However, it seems that because this place is special, I didn't dissipate. Instead, I stayed here.
Later on, people would come here from time to time. As long as they entered this place, their inner demons would appear.
However, those inner demons didn't have the same consciousness as me. Instead, they were eaten by me. The more I ate, the stronger my abilities became. I could even take the initiative to invade people's hearts and set up scenes.
You're very strange. You have inner demons, but your inner demons have merged with you. You are a demon. "
