Chapter 7.2
Chapter 7.2
Lu Qingyuan couldn’t help opening her eyes wide.
“Could it be that this sword is actually a magic weapon?”
Feng Shao didn’t answer her question directly but continued to explain.
“In the past, there were four great heroes of the Righteous Path—Wind Emperor, Thunder Emperor, Water Fairy, and Fire God—while the Demon Path also had four evils—Blood Wing, Ice Soul, Blue Nether, and Purple Allure. The heroes of the Righteous Path are headed by the Wind Emperor, while the Four Fiends of the Demon Path are led by Blood Wing.”
“The two once made an appointment to fight on the Dragon Breaking Platform. They fought for three days and three nights, but no one knew the final outcome. However, Blood Wing’s Blood Refining Sword was rumored to have been lost and its whereabouts are unknown.”
“This Blood Refining Sword has been lost for hundreds of years, and it has long been a legend. People in the world only know that this sword is forged of Weeping Ghost Stone that is abundant in the Wraith Sea and quenched with condensed blood, causing it to be red all over. Wielding it brings the sound of howling ghosts. If it was supplemented with the skills of the Demon Pate, it would be able to captivate the enemy’s mind and absorb their blood essence. Junior brother Ye Chen seems to have not yet mastered the magic skills of the Demon Path, so he has not been able to exert the sword’s full power and potential. But if things go on like this, I’m afraid that sooner or later he will fall into Devil Dao.”
Others couldn’t see the origin of this sword, but it couldn’t be hidden from Feng Shao, who holds the Tianhua Jade Slip. Feng Shao just glanced at it and immediately saw the past and present of this sword clearly through the Tianhua Jade Slip.
Strange to say, in Feng Shao’s impression, in the many fantasy novels he read in his previous life, the protagonists seemed to be particularly fond of the magic skills of the demon path.
The most representative rhetoric that those protagonists use is that “power itself has no distinction between good and evil, good people use it for good, and evil people use it for evil. Even if it is a well-known and upright cultivation technique, if it is practiced by people with bad intentions, it will still bring disaster to the world.”
For this kind of rhetoric, Feng Shao also took it seriously before. However, after time travel, through the analysis of the cultivation techniques of various sects and schools in the Tianhua Jade Slip, Feng Shao knew that was not the case at all.The reason why the demonic cultivation techniques were tabooed by the upright sects was because demonic cultivation techniques only emphasize the cultivation of the body and not the cultivation of the mind.
It stands to reason that when this type of demonic cultivation technique was cultivated to a certain level, it would inevitably produce inner demons.
The Buddhist way of dealing with inner demons was to eliminate them in order to achieve a clear mind and a natural state of mind.
But demon sects did the opposite, advocating integration with one’s inner demon.
For this alone, it was destined not to be tolerated by the righteous sects.
For emphasis, the reason why inner demons were also called heart demons lies in the ability to confuse people’s hearts.
After people master and wield extraordinary power comparable to that of transcendents, their mentality will inevitably expand and their greed will gradually increase.
If it was not controlled, one would be bound to be controlled by their inner demons and become a murderous and bloodthirsty person.
And the so-called “integration with inner demons” was nothing more than a kind of nicer rhetoric to compromise with desire.
Black is black, and it is impossible to write white characters with it in any way.
It wasn’t unreasonable for the righteous and evil paths to fight endlessly for thousands of years. And Taiwei Sect, being an upright and honorable sect, naturally cannot tolerate the magic skills of the demon sects.
Lu Qingyuan asked, “Senior brother, do you mean that Junior Brother Ye accidentally picked up the Blood Refining Sword that Blood Wing lost?”
“Whether it was an accident or not, I don’t know. But junior sister, you should know that the magic weapon has the ability to bewitch people. Unless you practice the magic skills of the demon path, you will be controlled by the magic weapon sooner or later. Junior Sister Lu, after you go back, you should pay more attention to Junior Brother Ye Chen, and don’t let him go astray!”
Feng Shao said meaningfully.
Lu Qingyuan nodded solemnly in response.
“Don’t worry, Senior Brother Feng, I will take care of it!”
Feng Shao nodded and put the Blood Refining Sword back into the storage ring. Seeing this, Lu Qingyuan couldn’t help asking curiously.
“Then what is Senior Brother going to do with this sword?”
“Divine weapons have a spirit, and magic soldiers also have one. If you throw it away at will, I am afraid that sooner or later it will find its next owner. Since I already know its origin, I will not be controlled by it, so this sword, I will keep it for the time being. After I find a suitable solution, I will get rid of this sword!”
Lu Qingyuan nodded thoughtfully.
Feng Shao quietly observed Lu Qingyuan’s expression and began to analyze it in his heart.
The fact that Ye Chen is the son of fortune was basically confirmed.
Feng Shao discovered that Ye Chen’s purple luck seemed to have a bewitching effect.
In recent years, Lu Qingyuan’s indifference to him may be due to the influence of luck.
But today, Ye Chen first lost to him and then lost his beloved sword.
His luck was weakened twice in succession, and the original deep purple luck has become much weaker.
Correspondingly, Lu Qingyuan’s IQ seemed to have returned, and she began to realize that there was something wrong.
But having said that, why did I become a stepping stone in the novel routine? Feng Shao felt that if he wanted to figure out this point, he might have to observe more.
As for Ye Chen, Feng Shao hadn’t figured out how to deal with him yet. Whether this son of fortune was a blessing or a curse to Taiwei Sect, Feng Shao was not sure. Recalling Master Qing Yangzi’s attitude towards Ye Chen today, Feng Shao had a bad feeling in his heart.
Maybe, I need to think more about myself…
