Taoist world

"Demon thoughts!"

Just as Jiang Yun was swallowed up by the demonic flames transformed by the ancient man, Dao Wuming, who didn't know where he was, suddenly opened his eyes. Like the demon lord, he uttered the same two words in his mouth, and his face changed. There was a look of shock and concern.

And soon, the worry on his face disappeared, but his brows were still furrowed and he said: "Fortunately, it was just a strand of demonic thoughts, and the ancient gun has destroyed it."

"However, since there are threads of demonic thoughts, there must be demonic thoughts!"

"I really didn't expect that there would be the evil thoughts of the ancient demon hidden in this world, and I had never been aware of it before..."

"Ancient Demon, you are really good at it!"

"It seems that it is indeed necessary to speed up the opening of the domain gate and let Jiang Yun quickly enter the Tongtian Gate!"

——

"Buzz!"

After the Zhengu Spear sent out a shock, it separated directly from Jiang Yun's back and suddenly pierced the black thread that appeared in the magic flame.

"Roar!"

Although the black thread exploded immediately, an earth-shattering roar sounded again in Jiang Yun's ears.

Although this was just a sound, it made Jiang Yun's mind suddenly shake violently, and even his soul trembled slightly.

Then, he couldn't help but reach out and cover his ears, trying to stop the sound from entering his ears.

The whole person fell directly into nothingness, with a look of extreme pain on his face!

It seemed that this voice not only had the power to destroy heaven and earth, but could also rush into his soul and tear it to pieces.

It was not until a long time passed that Jiang Yun felt that the sounds in his ears gradually disappeared, and his body slowly returned to normal, and his body was already soaked with sweat.

The sound alone can make him unable to bear it. This is not the first time Jiang Yun has encountered such a situation!

Jiang Yun had already encountered such a situation once when he entered his father's memory and entered the battlefield.

However, perhaps because the distance is relatively close, or perhaps because this is reality and not a memory, the lethality of the roar this time is much more powerful than the last time.

Jiang Yun slowly sat up from the void and looked around him.

The black magic flame had disappeared, and lying on the ground not far away was the ancient man.

The man's eyes widened with a look of horror on his face, and he was obviously dead.

Jiang Yun just glanced at the man's body and closed his eyes. The impact of the roar on him was still not completely eliminated, so he sat quietly in nothingness for a long time before opening his eyes again. Eye.

"Demon Lord!"

Jiang Yun called out to his body.

Jiang Yun was deeply impressed by everything he experienced after being swallowed into the demon flame.

He not only saw the black thread, but also heard the word "Devil Thought" spoken by the Demon Lord. He also knew that the Zhengu Gun took action on its own, shattering the black thread and seemingly swallowing it up. .

Therefore, Jiang Yun naturally wanted to ask the Demon Lord first what the Demonic Thought was and what happened just now!

Why does the roaring sound originating from the black silk thread have such terrifying power!

It's a pity that the Demon Lord didn't react at all to Jiang Yun's call. It should be that the backlash of the seal just made him injured and fell into a deep sleep.

Jiang Yun could only put aside the matter of demonic thoughts and wait until the demon lord wakes up before asking him.

Then, Jiang Yun looked at the corpse of the ancient man again.

His spiritual consciousness swept over the man's body, and Jiang Yun unexpectedly discovered that although the man's body was dead, his soul had not dissipated, but he had lost his mind and was on the verge of dissipating.

After pondering for a moment, Jiang Yun's consciousness rushed directly into the man's soul, hoping to see if he could find something useful to him before the other man disappeared.

However, Jiang Yun didn't give any hope.

After all, there must be seals and restrictions in the souls of the ancient people to protect their memories from outsiders knowing.

However, when Jiang Yun's consciousness truly entered the other party's soul, he was shocked to find that the other party's soul was riddled with holes, as if it had been eaten away by countless insects.

This also reminded Jiang Yun of the previous scene where the demon flame was about to devour him.

"That black thread should be the demonic thought. I'm afraid it exists in the man's soul like a parasite."

"While allowing him to practice the so-called ancient magic skills, it is also quietly eating away at his soul."

"There is no trace of this kind of cannibalization from the outside. I'm afraid even the man himself doesn't feel it. He doesn't know that his soul has been cannibalized by demonic thoughts."

"The strange thing is, even if he doesn't feel anything, doesn't it have any impact when he uses his spiritual consciousness and soul power?"

Although the ancient man's soul was riddled with holes, there were no seals or restrictions in his soul, allowing Jiang Yun to search his memory unimpeded.

Of course, all the man's memories are incomplete!

Jiang Yun just watched and guessed, and gradually guessed the general experience of this man's life.

As a member of the ancient tribe, from birth, they will naturally receive favorable conditions that far exceed those of others, so that their cultivation path can go further and better.

However, when the people of the ancient tribe can practice, they will go through some tests to judge their general qualifications.

Then based on their qualifications, the clan will arrange corresponding paths of cultivation for them.

Jiang Yun had no way of knowing what the specific test was. He only knew that after completing the test, this man was selected to embark on the path of the ancient demon.

After that, the man swallowed a pill and started his own spiritual path until now.

Although Jiang Yun had known about the Ancient Clan for a long time and had fought against them, he really didn't know much about the situation of the Ancient Clan.

After searching the soul of this ancient man today, I finally got some real understanding.

It turns out that in addition to the four major branches of the Qiankun Xuanhong, the Ancient Clan, even within the Ancient Clan, there are also several different paths of cultivation for the clansmen to choose from.

The path of the ancient demon is just one of them.

As a member of the ancient tribe, once you choose a path of cultivation, there is no possibility of changing it. You must go all the way until you die!

Moreover, even if they are members of the ancient tribe, they are not allowed to touch other people's cultivation paths at all, and they are not even allowed to inquire about each other.

Jiang Yun frowned and said, "It's understandable that there are different paths to practice."

"This is just like the sects and ethnic groups in the Tao Domain. They all have different paths of cultivation such as alchemy, weapon refining, formation refining, sword cultivation, etc."

"But why is it that once you choose a certain path, you are not allowed to change it, and why are you not allowed to inquire about other people's cultivation paths?"

"Also, this ancient demon's path is basically a suicide path."

"No matter how powerful they can become, they will lose their lives after their souls are completely eaten away!"

"As for other paths of cultivation, although I don't know much about them, it's not difficult to guess. I'm afraid it should be the same."

"The ancient tribe, why do you not care about the lives of your own tribe so much, and only pursue the strength of your tribe?"

"Young Master, and Gu Wang, I don't know which path they chose!"

With these emotions, Jiang Yun continued to look at the man's incomplete memory.

Until he saw an experience the man had not long ago, which made his expression suddenly change.

Not long ago, this man, together with several other members of the Ancient Clan, took Gu Bulao away to the Mountain and Sea Realm!
