Start as a Temple Spirit

Chapter 224 Little Demon

Taoist Xuan Ce smiled when he heard this and said, "Then I won't be polite, so that everyone won't have to stand."

"Haha" As soon as these words were spoken, laughter broke out and everyone sat down, inevitably exchanging some pleasantries.

"Elder, aren't you keeping an eye on Ghost Marquis? How come you have time to come to Forgotten Township?" Liu Weizi, who was refilling tea for Taoist Xuan Ce, asked curiously.

"Don't mention it. Ghost Marquis can't take care of it now. My current mission is to find the little evil demon and protect you back to the sect."

"The devil of resentment!" Liu Weizi exclaimed in surprise when he heard this.

"Don't be startled. Stay calm. It's just a newly born little demon. There's nothing to be afraid of."

"Elder, the little resentful demon is also a resentful demon. The disaster of the Yin soldiers was caused by the little resentful demon after he became king." Liu Weizi said with a bitter face.

When the old patriarch heard this, his face almost turned green. No wonder he felt a sense of familiarity when he heard the word "grudge demon". It turned out that this was the one who caused the disaster of the evil soldiers.

"Master Xuan Ce, could this little demon be the descendant of the King of Yin Soldiers?" Liu Yu asked with a wild imagination.

Taoist Xuan Ce was amused by his words and shook his head and said, "No, the King of the Yin Soldiers was suppressed before he had the chance to marry a wife."

From this we can see that Taoist Xuan Ce is a man of temperament.

"This little evil demon must have been created after months of fighting between the Hunter Alliance and the monster army." Shang Liangshan guessed.

Upon hearing this, Taoist Xuan Ce looked at Shang Liangshan in surprise and asked, "Fellow Daoist Shang, how did you guess that?"

"I can't really explain it either. It's probably an intuition." Shang Liangshan had some guesses, but he really couldn't explain it, so he just used intuition instead.

"As Fellow Daoist Shang thought, this is the evil created by certain people. The Shiwan Mountains are about to be in complete chaos." Taoist Xuan Ce sighed.

"Alas, we have had a peaceful life for such a short time, but now it is not peaceful again." The old patriarch cursed the ancestors of some people in his heart.

"Master Xuan Ce, what is a resentful demon?" Shang Liangshan went straight to the point.

Taoist Xuan Ce took a sip of tea and said slowly, "The resentful demon is born from the most evil demonic thoughts and resentful thoughts. It can be considered a natural hybrid."

Those who heard "..."

"It has a form but no appearance. It is good at bewitching people, controlling ghosts, hiding its form, and feeding on blood, souls, spirits... evil thoughts and resentment."

"Its innate skills are two-fold, one is the devil's coming, and the other is the hatred. Their power is extremely terrifying."

"The former can make the power of ghosts explode. Those with weak wills can become possessed by demons, become bloodthirsty, and turn into demons that obey its orders."

"The latter can make ghosts generate strong resentment, absorb negative energy between heaven and earth, strengthen themselves, burn themselves, and thus burst out with powerful strength."

"That's just one of the reasons. The second reason is that it can pollute people's hearts. This is more terrible than letting people be possessed by demons, because people's hearts are hard to predict and they are good at hiding things."

"What does it mean to have form but no appearance?" the old patriarch asked his puzzled question.

"It has a form but no appearance..." Taoist Xuan Ce pondered for a moment and explained, "The resentful demon has a form, but ordinary people cannot see it. People below the seventh rank cannot see it, so it has a form."

"No form means they transcend form, that is, they transcend the limitations of form or shape and have no fixed appearance."

"To put it simply, the vengeful demon is visible, but only the strong can see it."

"The resentful demon has no form, no fixed appearance, and can take on any number of forms. It is good at hiding in space and on all things."

“In other words, the vengeful demon is a spiritual or energy state that transcends material form.” Shang Liangshan murmured.

"That's a good explanation. In short, vengeful demons are special beings. Their talents and intelligence are incomparable to those of ghosts. They are extremely troublesome and the source of disasters."

"Then how do we find it and how do we deal with it?" Liu Yu asked with a tingling scalp.

"If it doesn't take action, there's no way to find it, so compared to it, Ghost Marquis is nothing but a dwarf."

“If this evil demon is hiding in the temple and controlling everything…” The old patriarch didn’t dare to say any more, nor did he dare to think about it any further.

"It's not that serious yet. This little evil demon was born not long ago and has only a fifth-grade cultivation. It can't devour the temple spirits, so there is no need to worry about it for the time being."

"I'm afraid it will control ghosts to attack, lure out the temple spirits in the villages where there are temple spirits, and then launch a sneak attack." Liu Yu mentioned another possibility.

"It would be nice if it were like this. We can find it, but the cost is a bit high."

"Elder, this price is nothing compared to another disaster caused by evil soldiers." Liu Weizi couldn't help but say.

"That's the truth, but it's a little cruel after all. Forget it, let's not talk about it. There are many people who care about the little devil, so it's better for the Forgotten Township not to get involved in this matter."

The old clan leader and monk Liangshan nodded when they heard this. They didn't want to get involved in this matter. The former stood up and said, "Master Xuan Ce, you take a rest first. I'll go get some wine and food, and we can eat and talk at the same time."

"Haha, that's great. Just prepare more meat and you won't need wine. I've got some." Taoist Xuan Ce said happily.

"Haha, now we're in for a treat." The old patriarch laughed heartily and walked out of the pavilion.

"Chief of the Yi clan, wait for me." Liu Yu followed.

After the two walked away, Liu Yu couldn't help but ask, "Elder, you are not here to chase the little evil demon, are you?"

"Yes and no." Taoist Xuan Ce took a sip of tea and said, "I lost him halfway through the pursuit. I searched for several days but couldn't find any clues."

"Can the little evil demon be controlled?" Shang Liangshan went straight to the point.

"Yes, but it is very dangerous. There is a risk of it devouring the master at any time."

"If that's the case, the Ten Thousand Mountains will be a place of chaos and demons in the near future." Liu Weizi said with a serious expression.

"In seven days at the latest, all the powerful people with ill intentions will appear in the Hundred Thousand Mountains, looking for the little devil. This is also the reason why I came to Forgotten Township. If conflicts can be avoided, they should be avoided."

What Taoist Xuan Ce meant was that with an old Taoist priest in charge of the Forgotten Township, people with evil intentions would stay away from him.

"Elder, does the Hunter Alliance have no attitude towards this matter?" Liu Weizi asked.

"They have a shitty attitude. Do you know how many people and strong men of the Hunter Alliance were killed or injured in the months of fighting?"

Shang Liangshan and Taoist Priest Liu both shook their heads.

"The Hunter Alliance has more than a dozen dead or injured, and nearly 250,000 hunters have been injured or killed."

"Hiss!" Shang Liangshan and Liu Weizi heard it and took a breath of cold air.

"Hehe, this scares you. I'm telling you two, three ninth-rank warriors from the Hunter Alliance had a fight with three demon beast kings of ancient bloodline. Guess what the result was."

"I can't guess." Liu Weizi shook his head.

"I hope he won't be hit once and injured twice." Shang Liangshan made a bold guess.

Taoist Xuan Ce heard this and looked at Liang Shan in surprise and said, "How did you know? They had an appointment to fight in outer space, and not many people knew about it."

"I said it was just a guess, do you believe it?" Shang Liangshan said with his hands spread out.
