Chapter 688
"Second brother, you were not injured last night, were you?"
"I? Is it possible that I am injured?"
"This..." Zuo Pojun thought about it and said, "The death of those seven people is very miserable. The surface of their bodies is cracked, and the internal internal organs are even more scattered... I thought it was my second brother who was accidentally injured, so I was angry and heavy."
"..." Ye Tianxie said nothing. All the seven people were shot dead from the air, and they didn't even touch the corners of their clothes, let alone check their status when they died... I didn't expect it to be so serious. The intensity of those attacks from the air was so great that it was even more powerful than he expected.
"How is your mission going?" Ye Tianxie changed the subject and asked to the telephone. Although the Novice Village and the Lost Continent are two different spaces, they will not affect the call.
"Huh... It's worthy of being a nightmare-level mercenary mission, and it's really difficult to move forward. The first wave of monsters that greeted us were all one-star elites... Yesterday afternoon, I was dizzy by the yellow sand formation in the Despair Canyon. I walked out until the afternoon. Xiaoyao and Xiaojie were almost trapped in the yellow sand. In short, we have to be more careful today." Zuo Pojun said.
"Yeah, come on,"
"Hey... don't worry, unless things are not done, we won't go to Xunmeng to help. By the way, second brother, when will you come back from the novice village?"
"Maybe it will take a long time."
"Oh, the mission in this Desperate Canyon should take a long time... I went there, and the howling here was really scary. The content of the mission was to investigate the root of the howling... Oh, Sister Feifei is here, everyone is here, so let's go first, second brother."
After hanging up the call, Ye Tianxie took a few breaths of the air here and returned to the Novice Village with the Konghuan Pearl.
It was about nine o'clock in the morning, and he greeted the village chief and then walked to Yuanque for a while. As a result, he hit a hard nail without any accident and was driven out by a burst of roar. Then he turned to his target today, the Blacksmith Shop.
The door of the blacksmith shop was wide open. When Ye Tianxie walked in, he saw the blacksmith and his wife standing at the door, as if waiting for him. Seeing him walking in, the blacksmith nodded slightly and said, "You are here."
When Ye Tianxie first met this blacksmith's wife, he vaguely felt that she was not normal. What she said inexplicably made him frightened. The feeling she brought to him at that time could be attributed to the semi-crazy state after losing her son. Now, her face was obviously relaxed and she still gave him a feeling of discomfort.
The blacksmith Lao Wang came up excitedly: "Young man, you are here, really... I really don't know how to thank you. Xiao Ming is not even scars except for his physical weakness. He will fully recover after a period of cultivation. You have brought us back Xiao Ming. We will never forget this great kindness in our life..."
Ye Tianxie was stunned for a moment and said suspiciously: "Xiao Ming... is resting? Was it released from the glass ball yesterday?"
The blacksmith Lao Wang nodded: "Yes, the black glass ball disappeared by itself. Although Xiao Ming has not woken up yet, it seems that nothing big happens and he will wake up soon."
The blacksmith Lao Wang rubbed his hands excitedly, and then took out a gray-white scroll of paper from his clothes: "Young man, the village is small and novice, and I really can't find anything that can repay your kindness in this small blacksmith shop... This is something I got accidentally when I was young, please accept it."
reel?
Ye Tianxie took it, glanced at its attributes, and a surprise flashed across his face...
Scroll of Fairy - Dou Zhuang Xingshi: A strange scroll with the power transfer ability, which can transfer a skill or attribute of a equipment that is not higher than the Shenxuan level to another piece of equipment of any level. After the transfer, the attribute or skill that the original equipment is transferred disappears.
What a magic scroll, it can actually transfer skills. The effect is completely equivalent to cutting down the skills or attributes of one piece of equipment and pasting them onto another piece of equipment.
Ye Tianxie put away the scroll and said, "Thank you, Master Blacksmith, this scroll will be of great help to me."
"Haha, I'll feel much more comfortable if you say that." The blacksmith Lao Wang smiled comfortably: "By the way, if you have any forging in the future, please find me as much as possible, don't be polite."
The quiet blacksmith lady finally spoke at this time. She said to her husband: "I have something to say to him alone..."
The blacksmith did not resist at all, and did not say much. She smiled peacefully, walked into the inner room to take care of Xiao Ming. The blacksmith shop became quiet, leaving only the sound of the burning fire.
"Sister-in-law, do you really want to tell me what a huge secret?" Seeing that the blacksmith's wife had not spoken and stared at him, Ye Tianxie had to speak first.
The blacksmith's expression was very complicated. Looking from the front, she was no different from a weather-beaten peasant woman, and she even looked a little older than the blacksmith Lao Wang. She said in a low voice: "I said that at that time, to give myself a reason to convince myself... I didn't expect you to bring Xiao Ming back at that time... But since you say it, you have to do it. And I can see that you will not be a villain."
"Then, will the huge secret you want to tell me?..." Ye Tianxie paused for a moment and said with a smile: "You are a demon."
"Because can I open the Dark Soul Pearl?" After hearing Ye Tianxie's words, the blacksmith's wife strangely did not show any emotional turmoil and replied calmly.
"Only those from the demon clan can use the Dark Soul Pearl, and only those from the demon clan can open it... and it must be a high-level demon. In addition, when I first saw you, I felt a sense of discomfort all over my body, which should be the aura of a demon." Ye Tianxie said slowly.
"Then do you reject the demon?" The blacksmith's wife did not deny it, and her expression was still calm.
"I have no reason to reject it. Demon is just the name of a race. Perhaps because of some things, it has become synonymous with cruelty and sin, but this does not mean that all demons are evil, just as not all people are good." Ye Tianxie replied.
The blacksmith's gaze changed slightly when he looked at him: "Do you really think so?"
Ye Tianxie nodded.
The blacksmith smiled. She didn't seem to be used to laughing, and the smile she tried to hold up was just a flash. She looked away and looked outside the door and said, "You should know the Eight Demon Kings who were sealed into the Tower of Destiny a hundred years ago?"
"I know, but they have all escaped now." Ye Tianxie said.
The blacksmith nodded and said, "In fact, these demons called the 'demon kings' by humans in the Lost Continent are not real 'kings', but demon generals. The only king is the Demon God who was sealed by the four gods of the Phantom Beast Clan... Originally, there are nine such 'demon kings' total, and the name of the Lost Continent is the Nine Demon Kings... In the battle of demon sealing a hundred years ago, eight were sealed, and one was killed by the twelve sages... So, the Nine Demon Kings became the Eight Demon Kings."
Ye Tianxie was stunned for a moment, and his face suddenly changed: "What do you mean... are you the devil king who was 'killed'?"
"Rakshasa Ghost King." The blacksmith looked outside the door and spoke word by word of the name she was trying to forget.
Ye Tianxie: "!!!"
"Are you surprised?" The blacksmith's wife looked at him and said calmly.
"Ha... anyone will be surprised when he hears it." Ye Tianxie replied as calmly as possible. How could he not be surprised? He had encountered the Dark Ghost King, one of the Eight Demon Kings. What the Dark Ghost King showed was an amazing sub-saint level. As a demon king, the old woman in front of him who was not astonishing in appearance, and had no strong momentum. Even the appearance was exactly the same as that of humans, she had such strength... How could he not be shocked?
Who would have thought that who would have thought that... the wife of an ordinary blacksmith in a blacksmith shop in a novice village would have been the Ghost King!
"But it seems that you don't doubt... Haha, you are indeed not a mortal. All this is indeed incredible. I will have today, and sometimes even I feel as illusory as a dream. Back then, I thought I was dead, and the collision of huge power was enough to tear my body into pieces... But under the huge power, the space collapsed, and my body was pushed into the cracks of the space by force, and I came to this isolated sealed place, and I was unconscious for decades before I woke up."
Ye Tianxie: "..."
"The one who woke me up was my current husband... Although I woke up, I lost all my strength and didn't even have the strength to raise my arms. Everything about me was taken care of by my husband, and this care lasted for three years. Three years was enough to change a lot of things. Three years later, I finally regained the strength to walk, so I became his wife."
Ye Tianxie: "..."
The blacksmith smiled and said, "Do you think it's incredible? As one of the demon kings of the demon clan, a demon who once had the power to destroy the world, had the ambition to occupy the Lost Continent and brought huge disasters to the Lost Continent, actually took the initiative to become a couple with an ordinary human being. It sounds really hard to believe... But what is our invasion of the Lost Continent? Staying in a world of quiet, peaceful, without fighting, no hunger, no hatred, no jealousy, and no regrets, I found that this is what I wanted in my dream... Our demon clan invaded the Lost Continent, just to live in a rich land without hunger, like humans... "
A demon king married a human... Such a fact really made Ye Tianxie feel uncomfortable. He did not doubt the old woman's words, because many things proved that she did not lie anymore. He did not let himself worry about the fact that a demon king married a blacksmith, but instead said: "That's your choice, I have no right to ask what...but, your last sentence cannot be the reason for your demons to invade the Lost Continent. In order to live a better life, do you have to trample on and plunder other people's land and homes..."
The blacksmith's wife did not refute, but said lightly: "Then do you know how the demons originated?"
Ye Tianxie: "?"
"At a very early age, demons were not called demons, but also called humans... Yes, they came to be humans, humans on the Lost Continent. Their only 'error' was practicing dark magic."
"Dark Magic?" Ye Tianxie said softly.
"Yes... dark magic has powerful power and terrifying effects that other six-system magic cannot compare to. However, everything in the world is balanced. Although the power of the dark magic is the strongest, it also has the most terrifying side effects. Practicing dark magic will affect people's temperament to a certain extent, make people's temperament become irritable, show more negative emotions, and occasionally lose control. At the same time, the devouring ability of dark magic will first devour the body of the practitioner, making a normal person dark and thin, and even look like a skeleton... Later, those who practice dark magic were rejected because of their irritable temper and ugly appearance, and finally expelled... and even cruelly killed. In the end, humans vowed to completely remove the "ugly" thing like dark magic from the lost continent.
As a result, many people who practice dark magic were driven away, many were killed, and many people escaped... Finally, they gathered together and found a barren continent abandoned by humans, where they lived... There was no richness of the lost continent, and they would face hunger and cold every day... They practiced dark magic and were easily aroused negative emotions, expelled, and abused, and lived a hellish life in such a place. They could not help but develop stronger and stronger resentment. The dark magic will grow with the increase of resentment, and resentment will grow with the increase of dark magic... So, under the resentment and the mutual killing between people who are performed every day to seize the real thing, their dark power is becoming stronger and stronger... and becomes a demon."
Ye Tianxie: "..."
