Once upon a time there was a demon pass

"There should be."

"Where is the core... exactly?"

"Where is it!"

Ji Hong looked a little irritable, and even his eyes subconsciously showed a little determination, and he returned to calm after taking a deep breath.

That night, Ji Hong wandered all over the Dongcheng District of Tianqiongjian, and finally returned to him silently, replaced Old Xin, and sat on the top of the mountain again.

Looking at the rising sun in the distance, the sun swayed on the land, and the surrounding leaves were covered with dew, full of vigor.

The expressionless Ji Hong looks out of place in this vibrant scenery.

He fell on a boulder on the top of the mountain, looked at the blue sky, and pictures kept flashing in his mind.

He has remembered this scene for nearly 20 years, and has never forgotten it, as if it was imprinted in his mind.

"Ji Hong, if this is successful, the Yaozu... will lose half!"

"That's right, at that time, all the troops of the human race will attack, and the demon realm will be destroyed!"

"In this way, the demon realm will end in our hands."

"Let these monsters see what a hero the fourth generation of our human race is!"

At that time, Ji Hong was only thirty.

A group of teenagers, middle-aged, surrounded Ji Hong, and everyone's faces were full of excitement and expectations for Ji Hong.

They kept persuading.

The youth is high-spirited, and the middle-aged is full of calmness!

Each of them is a contemporary arrogance.Each one is the pillar of four generations!

It can be said that at that time, the potential displayed by the fourth generation of the human race was definitely stronger than that of the third generation!

Sitting in the middle, Ji Hong looked at the classmates and seniors around him, falling silent, his eyes filled with bewilderment.

"why..."

"Sacrificing the fourth generation in exchange for this, is it worth it?"

"We... we may be able to cultivate, and when we all enter Jiujue, we can... we can break into Tianqiongjian."

At that moment, Ji Hong's voice became a little hoarse, and his speech was even more intermittent.

Hearing Ji Hong's words, these people fell into silence in the not-so-large room.

In the end, a middle-aged man sighed and patted Ji Hong on the shoulder: "The first generation, the second generation, the third generation... are all like this."

"But it turns out that we..."

"If you still focus on the methods and methods of the former sages, the final result will just stick to it."

"Their decision is wrong!"

"Or, it is impossible to destroy the demon realm!"

"What we have to do is not to defend the city, but to completely eliminate the demon realm from this land, so that our human race can walk unscrupulously in every land and breathe fresh air wantonly."

"There will be no more wives and children, and no more tragic events."

"This..."

"That's what we should be doing."

"Even if this decision is very bold, but...we believe, we believe you can do it!"

Listening to the middle-aged man's words, Ji Hong's body trembled slightly and his breathing was heavy.

After a long time, he raised his head with bloodshot eyes and looked at the expectant eyes around him: "I...I can't do it."

"Feng Wanqiu, he broke the record of the human race's earliest breakthrough of six senses. Even at the time of six senses, he faced the siege of several sixth-level monsters, beheaded half of them, and retreated completely!"

"Zhang Cheng, the proud son of Mo Academy, my senior, and even I grew up listening to his legends..."

"And Lin Hai..."

"Everyone is better than me, this task...you should do it..."

"I...I'll set off you..."

Listening to Ji Hong's words, everyone just had a kind smile on their faces.

"Perhaps you are right. In terms of strength, you are not the strongest."

"But you are the calmest, the smartest, and the best at controlling yourself. You won't make mistakes..."

"This is your greatest advantage."

"Perhaps at that time, you will face all kinds of criticism from the human race, and you will struggle in the demon realm and be made things difficult everywhere."

"But in this endless darkness, only you... can resist."

"we believe..."

"I believe that one day, you will stand in front of our grave with wine and toast us."

"Tell us we... die without regret."

Without giving Ji Hong a chance to defend himself, the matter was hastily finalized.

From that day on, the name of Ji Hong's Tianjiao has been widely spread throughout the human race.

And Ji Hong, who was under the eyes of the public, gradually became proud, conceited, and even...arrogant.

until one day...

"You will always be my proudest student."

His mentor, with a smile on his face, but his body was covered with blood, fell to the ground like this.

Even before he died, his eyes were full of encouragement.

Ji Hong held the long sword in his hand, his hands trembling constantly.

Tears dripped from the corners of his eyes.

"Old...teacher..."

"I..."

"I..."

The arm that always gave him a sense of security collapsed at this moment, like a helpless child, crying helplessly.

It wasn't until a long time later that he slowly got up, came to the teacher's body, looked into those gratified eyes, slowly raised the long sword, pierced it, and finally used the secret technique to awaken it, and forcibly dug out.

That's... a pen.
