The fall of the black dragon and the blood phoenix was too sudden. Lu Qingshan, who was immersed in the story, couldn't help but frown and think carefully about what was going on.
There was no reason for their fall at all.
If there was a reason, it would be that their "master" was killed by the one-horned lizard's sneak attack.
The question was, why was the life of the figure in the black lotus linked to the beast he controlled?
At least, there had never been such a saying among the human race.
— — When a beast cultivator died, their pet beasts would be fine.
As he thought about it, the image in the cloud continued to evolve.
With the fall of the invincible figure, the black dragon and the blood phoenix both fell off the altar, no longer making a sound.
The giant one-horned lizard looked ugly, not majestic at all.
However, after killing the invincible figure, its eyes shone with a ferocious glint. It leaped up and leaped above the black lotus. With a sweep of its tail, it swept down the figure whose body was pierced through by its horn.
Then, it stood up on the black lotus and roared at the sky, with a powerful momentum that seemed to dominate all living beings.
When the other figures on the black lotus saw this scene, they had different expressions. Some were dissatisfied, some were shocked, some were angry, some were afraid …
Seeing this, the giant one-horned lizard's eyes flashed coldly. It suddenly waved its claw and directly slapped it.
A layer of black light waves flew out from its claw, with the small black lotus below as the center, quickly spreading to the surroundings.
Under this shock wave, all of the black lotuses were affected. Only by relying on the layer of green light that the black lotuses released on their own did they manage to stabilize themselves. However, the immense power still caused sparks to fly all over the green light.
As for the black lotus below the one-horned lizard, it was directly uprooted by the shock wave and its lotus leaves were destroyed.
The giant one-horned lizard looked around again, its eyes full of disdain.
After it showed such powerful strength, the other black lotus figures who were still unconvinced and seemed to think that it just took advantage of the situation, finally had nothing to say.
The next moment, all the black lotus figures bowed down to the figure in the black lotus controlling the giant one-horned lizard.
The flowing cloud stopped at this moment.
The story ended here.
Lu Qingshan pondered for a long time, carefully pondering the meaning of this story.
"A very strange and special race. They were born in the Black Lotus and have the ability to control ferocious beasts … The place where they were born is also very mysterious. There are actually so many powerful ferocious beasts."
"The way this race decides on their leader is still the most primitive way of survival of the fittest, and strength determines victory."
"That's right. What is this story trying to say?"
Lu Qingshan was extremely puzzled.
The first story was about Imperial Heaven, and it had an inseparable relationship with his green snake.
That made sense.
Although he did not know what was going on here, the reason he came here was because of the strange movements of the green snake.
It was only natural that it was related to the Green Snake.
But what about the second story?
Why did it have no beginning or end? He could not even see how it was related to Imperial Heaven.
When the first story ended and the second story began, Lu Qingshan expected that since little Imperial Heaven left its original world at the end of the first story, then the next story would be about what happened after it came to the new world.
But he did not expect that the second story would be completely unrelated to the first story, and it had nothing to do with the green snake.
What was even more strange was that the second story seemed so inexplicable, but Lu Qingshan felt a strong sense of deja vu.
It was just that he could not remember where this sense of deja vu came from.
.....
"Young Master, isn't that Xinlian?" Just as Lu Qingshan was immersed in the cloud and pondering the meaning of the story, Qin Yitian's gentle voice sounded in his mind.
When he heard this, his gaze suddenly shrank and fell on the frozen image.
The giant single-horned lizard looked around. Below it, the black lotus had been uprooted, but most of its roots were still covered by the mud of the swamp.
But the small part of the roots that was exposed shone with a jade-green color, and it was very lively and … very familiar.
The root of the lotus was the lotus root.
Lu Qingshan's heart skipped a beat. He quickly took out the Xinlian he had obtained from Mountain Guard City from his mustard seed and compared it carefully.
It had the same jade-green color, the same lotus root, and even the appearance was exactly the same.
It was as if a bolt of lightning had suddenly streaked across the night sky, illuminating the world.
In Lu Qingshan's mind, in the time it took for a spark to fly, he suddenly reacted.
The space was quiet and peaceful, but Lu Qingshan's heart was in a perilous situation.
He finally knew where this strong sense of deja vu came from, and who the main character of the second story was.
The Endless Abyss Region, the Mental Demon Clan!
That was the most mysterious clan, the Inner Demon Clan, whose origins no one knew.
The Mental Demon Clan was born in the black lotus.
The Xinlian, which Yan Qing called a sacred object of the Royal Clan and helped him break through from the Nascent Spirit Realm to the Late-stage Soul Realm, was the root of the black lotus that gave birth to the Mental Demon Clan.
No wonder it was said that only the Mental Demon Clan produced it.
"So, that swamp is actually a part of the Abyss."
As his train of thought was opened up, more things and details gradually emerged.
"The true identity of the Mental Demon Clan has always been a mystery even in the Abyss. No one knows the specific effects of their two great talents, Spirit Control and Life Control."
Lu Qingshan shivered all over. He thought of something and hurriedly searched the mustard seed.
A moment later, a black jade appeared in his hand.
He had collected a lot of information in Jianluo City under his identity as Qing Ge, including many records of the Soldier Demon Clan on the other Seven Saint Demons.
"The Mental Demon Clan has two great top Demon Venerables, called the Soul Venerable and the Life Control Venerable.
"In the first Taoist-Demon War, these two Demon Venerables fought.
The Soul Venerable's form is a strange beast shaped like an Azure Dragon, which is extremely powerful.
The Life Control Venerable's form is also a strange beast, but it is completely different from the Soul Venerable's. It has the body of a goat, the face of a human, the eyes under its armpits, and the teeth of a tiger.
"They are all Mental Demons, so how can their forms be different? This is a problem that has troubled many people, but now it seems that there is a sufficient explanation.
"One of the three ghost-like Soul Shadows will fly out and merge into the body of a Fierce Beast, then the Fierce Beast will be under his control …
So, the reason why the Soul Venerable and the Life Control Venerable's different forms of strange beasts is actually not their true forms, but puppets controlled by their Soul Shadows …
"The Spirit Demon Cultivators who have been hiding among the Human Clan for tens of thousands of years have never been discovered …
The reason why they haven't been discovered is that those Spirit Demon Cultivators are exactly the same as the Human Clan Cultivators …
"One or two of them can be said to have some special means, just like Lin Yao's Body Changing Divine Bloodline.
But this kind of situation happened on a large scale, so there is only one possibility, this ability to disguise as a human is actually the Mental Demon Clan's innate ability. "
"It's either Spirit Control or Life Control …" Lu Qingshan muttered. His thoughts moved faster and faster, and his thoughts became clearer.
His eyes gradually lit up. "So, what if these Soul Shadows don't simply occupy the bodies of Fierce Beasts and control them, but can be used on all living beings?"
Yes, Fierce Beasts and the Mental Demon Clan are not the same race, and so are the Human Clan.
To the Mental Demon Clan, Fierce Beasts and Human Clan are very likely to be the difference between a lion and a tiger.
Since they can control Fierce Beasts as puppets, why can't they control Human Clan as puppets?
"No, they shouldn't be puppets." Lu Qingshan shook his head, and recalled the unbelievable scene in the clouds. "The moment that human figure died, the Black Dragon and Blood Phoenix that he controlled with the Soul Shadows also died …"
"Moreover, I can clearly feel that after the Soul Shadows occupied the bodies of the Fierce Beasts, they are unusually agile and very human-like. They don't seem like lifeless puppets at all.
What's more noteworthy is … the eyes of these Fierce Beasts are exactly the same as their master's. "
The most typical example was the giant single-horned lizard and its "master". That crafty gaze that resembled a replica left an extremely deep impression on Lu Qingshan.
At this moment, he recalled something that he had overlooked in the past. It was an insignificant matter.
During the Seven Regions Dao Discussion, Sect Master Changgeng's identity as a cultivator of the Hades was exposed. In the end, the Spirit Huan Sect executed Sect Master Changgeng in front of the sect's cultivators, the Da Xia Kingdom's Qing Mei King, and the Divine Secrets Temple's Lord as a warning to others.
It was very difficult for someone to fake their death in front of the Divine Secrets Temple's Lord without being discovered.
Hence, Sect Master Changgeng was definitely dead, and could not be faked.
At that time, Lu Qingshan was still impressed by the Spirit Huan Sect's boldness. They executed a sect master just like that.
Now that he thought about it, Sect Master Changgeng's true identity was a Mental Demon. The Mental Demons were the noblest bloodline in the Ceaseless Region. How could they be killed so casually?
Unless Sect Master Changgeng was just one of the living beings controlled by the Mental Demons' three souls.
'So, when the main body dies, the living beings controlled by the soul will die as well. However, the death of the living beings controlled by the soul won't have much of an impact on the main body?' Lu Qingshan shuddered.
This was because he seemed to have uncovered the Mental Demons' mysterious innate ability.
No, it should be said that he had uncovered the Mental Demons' Achilles' heel.
'If that's the case, then there's a reasonable explanation for why the Mental Demons have hidden their bloodline's Innate Ability so deeply …'
Which clan would dare to expose a secret that concerned the survival of their clan to outsiders?
The short Cloud Light Shadow Diagram revealed two important pieces of information to Lu Qingshan. First, the Mental Demons had an innate ability. They had three soul shadows. With these three soul shadows, they could control three living beings.
The Spirit Huan Devil Cultivator was one of the Mental Demons' three souls.
With this information, he could confirm that there was basically no mistake.
Second, the relationship between the Mental Demons and the soul should be that when the main body died, the soul would be destroyed as well. However, the main body would not be affected if the soul was destroyed.
Although this was only a guess, Lu Qingshan was 90% sure that this was the case.
Lu Qingshan slowly looked up and stared at the frozen Cloud Light Shadow Diagram.
'The question now is, where is this place? Where did this Cloud Light Shadow Diagram come from?
"Who is deliberately revealing the secrets of the Inner Demon Clan to me?"
'I came here by following the fluctuations that caused the Sword Qi living beings in my sea of consciousness to mutate. The words' Chi Tian 'are carved on the basalt at the entrance of the ancient temple. The first story is also about Chi Tian …
'So, this place should be related to Chi Tian … Is it Chi Tian who's revealing this to me?
'Then, how does he know so many secrets? Why is he revealing this to me? '
'Wait a minute?!'
Lu Qingshan suddenly recalled something.
Back then, in the Dragon Gate Mystic Realm at the bottom of Namtso Lake, he had met two Hades cultivators who had snuck in to unlock Lord Holy Beast's seal.
Now that he thought about it, the existence that the Hades cultivators called Lord Holy Beast was actually 'Chi Tian'.
This was because the iconic sun and moon eyes could not be faked.
'Chi Tian, Lord Holy Beast …'
'So, after little Chi Tian left his original world, he didn't go to the human race's Firmament Heaven, but to the Demons' Abyss? Or the Ceaseless Domain?
'Then, for some reason, he became the Lord Holy Beast of the Demons in the Ceaseless Domain … and knew the secrets of the Mental Demons?'
It sounded unbelievable.
After all, how could the secrets of the Mental Demons be so easily seen through by outsiders?
However, Chi Tian was clearly not an ordinary being.
He was a powerful being that was born at the beginning of the world and had transformed by devouring the sun and moon.
It was not strange for such a being to have some mysterious methods.
'As for why he's revealing this to me, is it related to my Sword Qi living beings?'
Lu Qingshan guessed.
This was the only possibility that he could think of.
The only connection between him and Chi Tian was the sword Qi lifeform that was born with Chi Tian as its prototype.
Lu Qingshan's thoughts ran wild.
At this moment, a strange change occurred in this space, interrupting his thoughts.
In the originally cloudless sky, a Sun and a Moon suddenly rose and flashed by.
A blazing red flame and a faint golden moon flame shot out from the sun and moon.
This scene was like the last scene of the first story.
The two rays of light instantly fell on Lu Qingshan's body at an unimaginable speed.
They ignored Lu Qingshan's Immaculate Domain and directly fused into his body.
After which, it headed straight for his sea of consciousness. It passed through the hundred feet Abbot Sky Heart domain in his sea of consciousness that was shining with golden light. In the blink of an eye, it entered his sword qi life form, the dazed green snake.
"Hm?"
Just as the flames and moon flame fused into the green snake, the sun and moon insignia in the green snake's eyes suddenly lit up, seeming to become sentient.
Following this, a massive amount of information appeared in Lu Qingshan's soul.
It was vast and ancient, mysterious and mysterious.
The instant he received the information, Lu Qingshan's consciousness stopped thinking in shock.
This was … legacy memories!
