Chapter 760 Godslayer

Gui Guzi.

To Fang Ziyu, it was obviously not a strange term.

In fact, if he remembered correctly, when Daofather Wei Changming ascended to the True Immortal Realm, the Heavenly Tribulation he had fought against was precisely this Ghost Millet stirring up a storm.

Just as the person in front of him had said, the person who had been secretly trying to take Xu Han's life was precisely this so-called Ghost Millet.

Fang Ziyu frowned and subconsciously took a step back when he heard these three words. The aura around him surged, and a golden True Dragon appeared. Behind Fang Ziyu, he opened his teeth and grinned with a solemn expression.

The black and white energy under the black robe surged back and forth, and a voice came from the black and white energy again.

"I didn't expect that you would still be able to find the path to becoming a god after all these years of shackling this world."

Fang Ziyu did not have the heart to delve into the meaning behind Gui Guzi's sigh. She only gathered all of her strength and was ready to attack at any time. Then, she asked, "Since that's the case, why do you think I will cooperate with you?"

"It's not cooperation, it's help." Gui Guzi patiently corrected Fang Ziyu's words.

After saying that, the surging black and white energy slightly stopped. It seemed to sense the hostility in Fang Ziyu's gaze at this moment. Thus, after this pause, he said again, "We have indeed chased after Xu Han for a long time, and indeed want to take his life. However, you must understand that there is no unjustified grudge in this world. If he is just an ordinary creature, why should we feel sorry for him? "

Fang Ziyu guessed the meaning of the other party's words, but he asked, "Then you'd better talk about your so-called karma."

"There are ancient demons sealed in the depths of this world. Their kings are called emperors. Under the leadership of the emperors, those demons have traversed the starry sky and destroyed countless worlds like this."

"Just as a man grows old and a tree withers, any great existence lowers its head in the face of time. After a long time, the seal that sealed the emperor also gradually declined. The Emperor was the only undying person in the Myriad Domains of the Universe since his existence. He ignored the years and the hundreds of thousands of years he had been imprisoned did not weaken him in the slightest. The decay of the seal gave him the chance to descend into the Myriad Domains of the Universe again. "This is an enormous and even destructive calamity for the Myriad Domains."

This was a very old-fashioned story, so old that even Fang Ziyu, who did not like listening to stories, could guess the plot of the second half of the story after listening to the first half.

She raised her eyebrows and mocked, "So you want to tell me that that bastard surnamed Xu is the reincarnation of the peerless Great Devil you spoke of?"

The surging black and white energy stopped once again, and only after a few breaths did it begin to surge again.

"Of course not."

"He is not an emperor, but a host chosen by the emperor."

"Host?" Fang Ziyu interrupted, his tone slightly puzzled.

At this moment, Gui Gu Zi was clearly playing the role of an indefatigable elder. He was not annoyed by Fang Ziyu's rudeness. Instead, he patiently explained, "You can think of it as a method like returning a corpse to a soul. The emperor will lure him into darkness, then seize the opportunity to invade his body, devour his will, and finally seize the nest and complete his rebirth."

Of course, this explanation was extremely clear, but Fang Ziyu's face did not reveal the slightest hint of understanding. Instead, a wisp of dense anger appeared on his face. Her voice was a little louder at that time, and she questioned, "So, just because someone surnamed Xu might be tempted by that emperor, are you going to kill him in pain?"

"It's not possible, it's certain." Gui Guzi corrected what they saw as Fang Ziyu's wrong rhetoric in his unpleasant tone again.

"The Emperor is the only undying being in the starry sky. He understands everything in this world. No one can escape under his bewitchment. The only difference is the length of time."

"Perhaps this is unfair, but for our own sake and for the sake of the trillions of creatures in the Myriad Domains of the Universe, this is the safest and most correct method."

Fang Ziyu fell silent. She lowered her head and pondered for a long time. Only when the night wind gradually stopped did she raise her head again and ask, "This is just your wishful thinking. Since you will kill Xu Han for the trillion creatures you spoke of, then why should I believe that one day you will not use the same excuse to destroy this world?"

Fang Ziyu thought a lot, especially about the calamity a few months ago. She had no idea what had happened, but she could not let go of her vigilance. It was impossible to say that the calamity was caused by the strange thing wrapped in black and white energy in front of her. After all, from Fang Ziyu's few words of conversation, he could smell something very similar to the group of people from the Tian Ce Mansion .

"Of course you can suspect that this plan is also within our consideration, but we will not do so until the situation has changed. However, it depends on your attitude." The deep voice sounded from the black and white aura once again. He frankly admitted Fang Ziyu's speculation, and at the same time put the threat on the surface.

Such a soft and hard attitude pierced Fang Ziyu's soft ribs.

Of course, she suspected her opponent, but Fang Ziyu, who was used to having someone to protect her from the wind and rain, had tried her best to be calm when she took on this heavy responsibility alone, but her heart was filled with fear and uneasiness. She was too afraid of ruining everything. Therefore, when such a choice was placed in front of her, she would inevitably lose her balance, and her hands and feet would inevitably be messed up.

"How can I believe that everything you said is true?" Fang Ziyu asked after a few breaths of silence.

Actually, at this point in time, how could the Ghost Rice Men not see that Fang Ziyu had already been convinced by them, and all they needed to do now was add one last chip to pull this chess piece into their camp.

"Truth and falsehood are not what we told you to hear. Instead, you should go and see for yourself to distinguish them."

"And if I remember at a loss, you should have already seen the truth."

"Huh?" Hearing this, Fang Ziyu was stunned, but in the next moment, her pupils suddenly dilated. She remembered the figure sitting high on the throne in the Changwu Pass. As if she understood something, she muttered to herself, "You mean…"

However, before she could finish her sentence, Gui Guzi interrupted her.

"That's right… What you saw wasn't an illusion created by some secret technique…"

"He is Xu Han."

"Xu Han, who was devoured by the Emperor."

At the center of the hundred thousand mountains, at the summit of the Four Emperors Mountain.

The current leaders of the demon race were gathered here.

For some reason, Nineteen was fortunate enough to participate in such a high-level dialogue.

"Why haven't they woken up yet?" Xuan'er, who was dressed in a black suit, looked at the bodies of the people floating above the Four Emperors Mountain and asked with a frown.

Eight months had passed since the battle. Guang Lingui once said that they could live again. Afterwards, he did use some secret techniques to make everyone's bodies that were clearly dead gush with life again. Xuan'er could clearly feel the powerful heartbeats coming from the corpses. However, after that, the progress of the resurrection of the people had reached an impasse. Their bodies were still alive, but there was no sign of them awakening.

Guang Lingui naturally had to respond to such an inquiry, but he could tell that he also had his own confusion at this moment.

He frowned as he swept his gaze across everyone's bodies, and then said, "This is also the first time that this poor monk has used this technique. Most of the paths have been deduced. It is not clear whether this poor monk can be effective or not."

"However, judging from their current situation, at least most of them are working as expected. However, why haven't they fully awakened yet? I think …"

The monk who spoke of this place was slightly silent, and this silence inevitably made the rest of the people present even more anxious.

At that moment, Nineteen revealed her confusion without hesitation. She took a step forward and asked, "Hey! How could you say half of it? Tell me what happened!"

Guang Lingui's appearance was completely different from what everyone had seen at the entrance of the Exquisite Pavilion, and his temperament was also very different. He would not persist in talking about the so-called "subduing demons and eliminating devils", nor would he feel the slightest bit angry for the offense of nineteen.

He smiled and said, "Little Benefactor, there is no need to be anxious. There is a saying that you need to tie the bell to the person who untied the bell. In the end, this matter goes beyond what this poor monk can touch. Little Benefactor has doubts in his heart, and this poor monk also has doubts in his heart. Since this is the case, it is most appropriate to invite someone who truly understands this matter to speak."

Nineteen was stunned. She couldn't understand what Guang Lingui was saying, so she blinked her eyes and asked, "What do you mean?"

"Although this technique was executed by an impoverished monk, an impoverished monk does not have such great ability to deduce such a profound technique. Therefore, I have to consult the impoverished monk to explain this technique." Guang Lingui said calmly.

"Not you?" Nineteen frowned, probably not expecting Guang Lingui to give such a story. "Who is that?"

However, Guang Lingui remained silent in the face of such an inquiry. He only turned around to look at one part of the crowd, and then froze his gaze at that part of the crowd.

At that time, both the people and the demons followed Guang Lingui's gaze. Then, their gazes fell on the black-clothed old man standing behind Nineteen.

Zhou Yuan? No, it should be eighteen.

This was probably the first reaction everyone felt when they saw the old man's appearance.

"Are you saying that he taught you this technique?" Xuan'er was the first to react. She frowned and looked at Guang Lingui, while Guang Lingui nodded without hesitation.

Xuan'er frowned even deeper.

Xuan'er did not doubt that the old man in front of her was hiding something strange.

Xuan'er had already noticed this from his strange name, his strange whereabouts, and all sorts of strange actions. However, after experiencing the calamity, there was too much sorrow in her heart and too much burden on her body, so that she did not have the mood to study everything about the old man in front of her.

He seemed to know many secrets that Xuan'er was unable to know, and his skill was terrifyingly strong. Even as a Demon Lord, Xuan'er was unable to see his depth. At this moment, Guang Lingui's words naturally increased Xuan'er's doubts. If this technique was really taught by the old man, there would be too many doubts.

First of all, what was the identity of the old man? Why did he possess such a miraculous technique? Why was he unwilling to use it on his own and insisted on handing it over to Guang Lingui?

Xuan'er and the others all looked at the old man at the same time, their eyes filled with suspicion and vigilance.

Only Nineteen remained unaware. She held the old man's hand and asked curiously, "Master is so powerful. Why didn't you teach Nineteen such a technique as well?"

The old man did not answer Nineteen's question. He stepped forward and walked to the front of the crowd. His gaze swept across the floating corpses before he said, "To this creature, reviving from the dead is nothing." Their resurrection is not directly related to the technique I have taught them. Rather, they possess the ability to do so. My technique is only the key to opening the gate. Now that the lock has been opened, it depends on their own ability to push the door open. "

Xuan'er frowned and asked, "What do you mean? Are you saying that they will not survive? Then what is your purpose in doing all this?"

The old man turned to look at Xuan'er. His gaze was calm as he exchanged glances with the Demon Monarch without the slightest bit of cowardice.

"I'm just fulfilling the mission I need to fulfill. If I really have a goal, it's to escape from this cage of heaven and earth."

"Since that's the case, don't you and I need to be more honest with each other? Why don't we just cover up everything you know?" Xuan'er obviously couldn't completely believe the old man's words, so she asked again at that time.

"We each have our own missions. The Abyss Devils in Ya Qi Mountain have already revealed their fangs. The chess players in the Outer World have also become restless. You have a lot to do, and I have a lot to do. However, there is very little time left for us. Why should I spend unnecessary effort explaining all of this to you?"

"We don't need to cooperate, nor do we need to trust each other. It's enough for us to do what we need to do."

The old man's attitude was very resolute, so resolute that it was almost unreasonable. The conversation on the Four Emperors Mountain naturally ended in nothing.

After everyone left, Nineteen looked at the old man in confusion and asked, "Master, they are all our friends. I know that Master may have his own difficulties, but why don't you explain it clearly?"

Hearing this, the old man lowered his head to look at the girl who was looking up at him and smiled.

He reached out to touch the girl's head and said, "Do you know why you are not allowed to touch that Su Family child?"

Nineteen shook his head.

"You are different."

"They are the people who deserve to be saved in this long plan."

"As for you and I, we are abandoned in this plan. The more people you have, the more hesitation you will have when that moment comes. Even the slightest bit of hesitation could destroy all the efforts we have made for so long."

The puzzlement in Nineteen Eyes was even greater. She did not know what the old man was talking about, but she could feel that something extremely cruel had been imposed on her. She could not help but ask, "Then what are we?"

The old man was silent for a while, then raised his head to look at the horizon and said in a heavy voice.

"Godslayer."
