Chapter 1 The Entrustment of the Demon and the Old Monster(1/2)

On the Tianmo Mountain in the Han Kingdom of Jingzhou, Shenzhou, a medium-sized Tianmo Sect stands on the Demon Sect.

This is contrary to the scene where most of the Han Dynasty's mountains are shady with green leaves, lush green, birds singing and flowers blooming, and wild animals gathering, but rather, the wind blows and demon flames are surging.

There are thousands of cliffs, thousands of feet high cliffs everywhere, and there are black smoke and mists inside. There are countless evil ridges and evil ridges.

If we use a poem to describe it, it is: Thousands of mountains, birds fly away, thousands of paths and people disappear, where are the creatures? It is not in the Heavenly Demon Mountain.

In addition, the climate in the Tianmo Mountain area is cold all year round, dark clouds cover the sun, and it is rare to see the sun every year. As a result, there are gusts of wind and ghost fog over the years, making mortals and ordinary monks afraid of it like tigers.

However, this is a blessed place for cultivators who specialize in ghost art in the Demon Sect. Most people hate all kinds of ghosts, evil ghosts, zombies, skeletons, etc., but for ghost monks, it is a good place for cultivating, controlling corpses, controlling souls, and catching ghosts.

It is said that in ancient times, in order to compete for this blessing land of the cave, many ghost cultivation sects broke out in wars. Later, more than 9,000 years ago, the founder of the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Heavenly Demon Saint Ancestor, took over this place as the place where he founded the mountain.

Although the Heavenly Demon Sect has a not very good status in the Demon Sect and can only be considered a second-rate sect, it is a well-deserved powerful force in the Han Dynasty, and it is a powerful force that "those who obey me will prosper, and those who oppose me will perish". It will kill all small sects and immortal cultivators that do not obey them. Of course, their abilities are limited to the Han Dynasty, but they do not have the ability to intervene in other countries.

At dusk, the monks of the Heavenly Demon Sect began to eat or practice one after another. A young man with sixteen or seventeen years old, wearing red and black costumes of the Heavenly Demon Sect, was cleaning up garbage in the alchemy room, talisman room, and weapon refining pavilion on various mountains in the sect.

His name is Jiang Chen, and he is a disciple of the Demon Soul Peak, one of the eight peaks of the Heavenly Demon Sect. However, since he has only been in the first place for a year, his status is very low and he is just a registered disciple.

Originally, disciples with spiritual roots like him were not allowed to do low-cost jobs such as cleaning garbage. Even if they had to work, they would do some laborers such as planting spiritual fields, picking up herbs, and taming spirit beasts.

But Jiang Chen is located in the Demon Soul Peak, the worst-in-class among the eight peaks of the Heavenly Demon Sect. The disciples of the Demon Soul Peak have never been looked down upon in the Demon Soul Peak. Therefore, after several mortals who had originally cleaned up and slaughtered, this kind of work naturally fell on Jiang Chen, the newly-entered Demon Soul Peak’s registered disciple.

Jiang Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead at this time, carried a trash can full of waste elixirs, walked for more than twenty miles down the mountain, and came to a ravine filled with various waste elixirs, damaged magic weapons, and broken fulu. Sitting on a huge rock, he sighed heavily.

He was not from this world. He was originally a high school student in China on Earth, but after waking up, he came here for no reason. Then, just as he was about to ask someone to ask about the situation here, the monk who was recruited by the Heavenly Demon Sect found that he had spiritual roots, so he captured him and forced him into the sect.

Not bad! According to the standards of this world, Jiang Chen is a very lucky person. He has spiritual roots and can become a cultivator.

However, his spiritual root qualifications are not good, he is just a miscellaneous spiritual root. If he had been in the past, he had not started practicing until he was fifteen or sixteen years old, and his spiritual roots were just very garbage miscellaneous spiritual roots, and the Heavenly Demon Sect would not even collect them.

But now the situation is different. Another sect called the Blood Shadow Sect has emerged in the Han Dynasty. Its development momentum is close to that of the Heavenly Demon Sect. Moreover, the two sects have had several conflicts around several spiritual veins and spirit stone mines.

Now, both sides are recruiting soldiers and forming gangs. In this case, disciples with mixed spirit roots like Jiang Chen are not strong enough and cannon fodder when fighting in sects. Therefore, he was forced to be captured into the Heavenly Demon Sect and forced into the sect.

Over the past year, Jiang Chen has also thought that since he came to Zhi, he has died and worked hard to practice. After all, he doesn't want to live a mediocre life like this, and he also wants to achieve immortality and pursue the peak of the immortal path.

Moreover, the current situation is so tense that even if he wants to live mediocrely, he will not be allowed by the sect. Maybe in some time, he will be forced to participate in the sect war as cannon fodder. The war in the immortal world is extremely cruel and bloody, and he doesn't want to die as soon as he goes to the battlefield.

However, because his spiritual root qualifications were really poor, it was not until last night that Jiang Chen completed the process of "condensing Qi and transforming God", and he officially entered the ranks of immortal cultivators and reached the first level of the Qi Refining Stage.

Jiang Chen practiced for a whole year before he completed this process. Other new disciples, who were only half a year slower and only three days faster, could complete the transformation from a mortal to an immortal cultivator.

Therefore, Jiang Chen has been criticized by others for a lot of years. But he endured it because he knew that when his strength was not enough to compete with those who were stronger than him, it would be better to be low-key.

Looking at the valley full of garbage in front of him, Jiang Chen's eyes showed a hint of resentment, and he clenched his fists. How long he wanted to become stronger soon!

Just as he stood up and was about to go back, his face suddenly changed.

At this time, Jiang Chen felt a violent wave of spiritual power coming from his side, which suddenly overturned him from the huge rock to the ground. Then a huge spiritual pressure came, making him feel that it was difficult for him to breathe.

He was shocked and lay on the ground and did not dare to move. After a while, he felt that the spiritual pressure was getting smaller, so Fang carefully raised his head...

The situation in front of him was too strange, making him almost unable to believe his eyes.

I suddenly saw a little dwarf old man with three long beards, with a scattered look and a look of wretched face. What surprised him even more was that this wretched old man was wrapped in a very dissatisfied body, and compared to his body, it was much bigger than the Demon Sect's robes.

"Is this old man a senior expert from our Tianmo Sect?" This thought came to Jiang Chen's mind.

He looked at the vulgar old man and saw that the man was holding a token with a black luster in his hand. This man was only one foot tall, and he was called a dwarf, but in fact he was exaggerated. His body size looked similar to a baby. His beard and eyebrows were all white, he looked frowning, and there were some blood on his body, as if he was injured and his image was extremely embarrassing.

When Jiang Chen saw this vulgar old man, he was stunned. He couldn't say he was fussy. Anyone who saw such a weird person would be extremely surprised.

After seeing him, the old man looked at the token emitting black luster in his hand, his eyes widened as if round, and the expression on his face was even more amazing than Jiang Chen.

He frowned, then stretched out his little hand, and saw several black silk threads flying out of his sleeve, binding Jiang Chen firmly. No matter how hard Jiang Chen struggled, he could not move.

"Boy! Come with me!" The old man then grabbed him, flew up suddenly, turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the air.

...

In a hidden cave not far from here, the old man was threatening and intimidating Jiang Chen and interrogating him for a while, he confirmed that his identity and origin were indeed innocent and had nothing to do with any major figure in the Demon Sect.

At this time, he told Jiang Chen a shocking news: he was the current sect leader of the Tianmo Sect, the old monster. However, now he was plotted against, and only one Yuanying escaped, his body was completely destroyed, and now he is in his life.

Fortunately, the person who plotted against him was also seriously injured by him. He would not be able to get out without resting for half a year, otherwise he would not dare to talk to Jiang Chen slowly at such a close place to the sect.

Originally, a Nascent Soul cultivator like him could take over the body and be reborn. But the old monster of the Heavenly Demon was unlucky that when he was young, he took over a casual cultivator with the Heavenly Spirit Root qualification because of his poor spiritual root qualification, so he could no longer take over the body in this life. The Nascent Soul who lost his body would not live long, and he was seriously injured. Therefore, he only had a few hours to live.

"Jiang Chen, I will tell you a long story. I need your help to kill the person who assassinated me and avenge me! If you can agree and make a vow of the inner demon according to my request, I will pass on the token of the leader of the Demon Sect to you! You will also make you the next sect leader of the Demon Sect!" The Demon Sect said earnestly.

"This... Sect Master, how did you come to me? You must know that I am a registered disciple of the first level of the Qi Refining Period! Isn't it better to find the peak master of the Eight Peaks or several elders of the sect?" Jiang Chen said carefully. The sect leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect called the Heavenly Demon Old Monster. He knew this, but a disciple with a status like him must have never seen the sect leader.

Moreover, he was not so impulsive. When he heard that he wanted to be a sect leader, he agreed with a fever. The old monster of the Heavenly Demon is all a master of the Nascent Soul stage. According to what he knew, not only in the Han Kingdom, but even in Jingzhou, he was a person who could walk sideways. But he was killed by his enemies, causing death to be wiped out. He was an inconspicuous young cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, but he had no ability to avenge him. I was afraid that most of them would go to die.

When the old monster Tianmo heard this, Fang sighed: "Jiang Chen, I have thought about the way you said, but I can't believe any of the Jindan-stage cultivators in the sect. Only if you are like you, you can enter the sect without any worries and no background disciples... Do you know who is the one who is the one who is assassinating me?"

"Who is the sacred person who assassinated the sect leader? Is it the person from the Blood Shadow Sect that is hostile to us?" Jiang Chen asked curiously.

"It's not the Blood Shadow Sect! I'm not so angry at all. After all, I'm the enemy of the Blood Shadow Sect, and no matter what means I use to treat the enemy... But this person who harms me is the one I trust the most and closest junior brother - Tu Junde, the great elder of my Heavenly Demon Sect!" The Heavenly Demon Monster said gritting his teeth, his face full of deep resentment.

"This... Sect Master, what kind of cultivation is Elder Tu?" Jiang Chen asked carefully.

"He has a low cultivation level, which is just the late stage of the Golden Pill!" The old monster of Heavenly Demon said furiously: "Although this guy is my junior brother, he has always been respectful to me in front of me and is extremely respectful to me. Otherwise, how could I trust him so much and not hide anything from him? As a result, who would have thought that this guy was a wolfish man who saw that I was about to break through the Nascent Soul Stage, was worried that I would have an extra four or five hundred years of life, so that he could not take over the position of the sect leader. When I was in seclusion and became a baby, he secretly sneaked into the secret room where I was in seclusion, secretly ambushed, trying to kill me to usurp the sect leader and take charge of the Heavenly Demon Order!"

After pausing, he coughed twice, spurted two mouthfuls of blood from his mouth, and then continued: "At that time, I had just succeeded in my baby and my body was the weakest. He used a variety of secret techniques to control my body and wanted to ask where my treasure house was. But he didn't know that I hate the kind of betrayer who would rather die than succumb to him. How could he tell him where the treasure house is... In order to get rid of his constraints, I simply exploded myself, and then while he was also seriously injured and could not move, my Nascent Soul teleported out of the secret room... As a result, it happened to be teleported out and met you!"

After saying that, his eyes were as bright as a copper bell, and his face was so angry that he blushed.

"Puff..." Jiang Chen almost stood firm when he heard this. He staggered for a moment, looked at the old monster in the devil in front of him with a strange look, thinking that this vulgar old man had lost his heart and made him a small Qi Refining Cultivator and a registered disciple of the sect to deal with Elder Tu in the late stage of the Jindan?

I am just the lowest level Qi Refining Cultivator in the Immortal Cultivation World, and even higher level Foundation Establishment Cultivator can easily kill him, not to mention the Golden Elixir Cultivator who is stronger than Foundation Establishment Cultivator. Go to seek revenge on Tu Junde, isn’t it because the old birthday star hangs him and he is disgusted with his longevity?

The old monster of Heavenly Demon seemed to see his thoughts, calmed his emotions a little, and said in a deep voice: "Boy, why are you so excited? This old monster wants you to avenge me, and it is not asking you to die. Naturally, it will not ask you to deal with him now, but wait for you to take action when you have the ability."

"Oh, it's almost the same if this is the case!" Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief, afraid that he would not have the ability to avenge him in his lifetime.

"Don't worry! This old monster always plans before acting! Don't fight unprepared battles. Since you want to avenge me, of course there will be a proper plan. There is a reason why I came to you to avenge me and plan to make you the next sect leader of my Tianmo Sect!" The old monster Tianmo said Fang Zhengrong at this time.

Jiang Chen blinked his eyes, and didn't say anything, but thought to himself, if you really plan and move, you won't be ambushed by your junior brother.

The old monster of Heavenly Demon said solemnly: "First, you have spiritual roots. Although you are just a mixed spiritual root, you are a person who can cultivate immortals. Only in this way can you avenge me. Otherwise, if you are really a mortal without spiritual roots, then I will not be too rude on you and kill the matter with one knife!"

"Secondly, you have not had any background and have only been a sect for a year. And judging from the treatment you have suffered before, you can never be a member of my thief junior brother. So, I feel more at ease to let you inherit my legacy!"

"The third point, and the most important point, is that your physique is special and can activate the Heavenly Demon Order! It means that it has a fate with you! The Heavenly Demon Order is a inherited treasure left by the founding ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Sect. More than ten thousand years ago, the founding ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Sect, the Heavenly Demon Saint Ancestor of the Heavenly Demon Sect, defeated many masters of the God Transformation Stage in the Righteous Road. Later, after the two sides of the righteous and demons ceased to fight, they even made great efforts to establish the Hengduan Mountains that separate the territory of the righteous and demons. Unfortunately, he failed to overcome the ascension tribulation and fell while passing the tribulation. According to the history books of the sect, during the time when the Holy Ancestor was the sect leader, everyone in the Demon Sect was convinced and respected..." The old monster of the Heavenly Demon showed a fiery and excited look in his eyes, and he was very proud of the founding ancestor's brilliant achievements.

In the late stage of the War of the Demons, the war was extremely cruel and fierce. All the ten monks on both sides had been killed, and even caused a large number of mortals to die.

In order to prevent the red-eyed monks on both sides from dying and retain some vitality for the cultivation world, the remaining god-transforming elders from both sides of the god-transforming stage of the god-transforming stage from not allowing the red-eyed monks to die together and retain some vitality for the cultivation world, they jointly built a huge mountain range about ten thousand feet high and across the junction of the god-transforming mountain range, called the Hengduan Mountains, and left numerous restrictions in the mountains, dividing the territory controlled by the god-transforming side to prevent the monks from the two camps from killing each other and fighting endlessly. Jiang Chen has also heard of these rumors.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but wonder: "Then why did our Tianmo Sect decline later?"

"Later..." The old demon monster couldn't help but blushed in his face and equator: "Before the ascension tribulation, the founding ancestor had predicted the possibility of failure of the transition tribulation, so he passed his Demon Order as the token of the leader to the next sect leader. But for some reason, although the physique of the next sect leader could activate the Demon Order, he could not understand the mystery. Later, several generations of sect leaders could not even activate the Demon Order, let alone successfully comprehended. They all died of depression for this..."

Speaking of this, he sighed and said, "Because several sect masters have abandoned their practice for this and do not manage the affairs of the sect, our Tianmo Sect has declined day by day... Even the Tianmo Order was snatched away by the hostile sect. Fortunately, although the sect master of the hostile sect can activate the Tianmo Order, he cannot understand the mystery. Moreover, he also spent a lot of time to comprehend the Tianmo Order and spent a lot of time on his cultivation, so the Tianmo Order was later snatched back by us..."

When Jiang Chen heard this, he couldn't help but sigh. This demon order sounded like an ominous thing, and anyone who touched it would be unlucky.

"After that, several elders of our Tianmo Sect checked in detail the relevant information preserved in the sect, and believed that this was because the knowledge required to open the Tianmo Sect was too profound, so he could not successfully comprehend. So he established a new sect rule, which stipulated that if the sect leader could not activate the Tianmo Sect when he ascended the throne, he would not be allowed to comprehend, so as not to waste his cultivation time..."

The old monster of Heavenly Demon looked at Jiang Chen with anticipation and said, "According to the records left by the founder of the Mountain, an important sign of activating the Heavenly Demon Order is that when a person who meets the constitution of the Heavenly Demon Order approaches, the Heavenly Demon Order will emit a black luster. The closer you get, the greater the intensity of the light!"

Jiang Chen suddenly remembered that when he had just traveled here and ran into the old demon monster, the token he was holding in his hand did emit a black luster.

The old monster of Heavenly Demon also put the Heavenly Demon token in front of Jiang Chen, and saw that the black luster of its flashing brighter. Then he took the token and moved slightly away from Jiang Chen, and the black luster became much dimmed a lot. It seemed that it was indeed related to Jiang Chen.

"How is it? Boy Jiang Chen, if you agree and make a vow of the inner demon as I ask, I will pass on the Demon Order to you and make you the next leader of the Demon Sect. Then, after you have achieved success in your studies, you will find an opportunity to kill the traitor Tu Junde who deceived his master and destroyed his ancestors and harmed his fellow disciples. Avenge me for revenge!" The Demon Old Monster said in a very tempting tone.

Jiang Chen hesitated for a moment, but still felt a little afraid of making a decision.

Since he has come to this world of immortal cultivation, of course he doesn't want to live a mediocre life like this.

Over the past year, he also knew some common sense about cultivating immortals: among the monks, cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage can live about one hundred years old, cultivators in the Foundation Establishing Stage can live more than two hundred years old, while cultivators in the Golden Elixir stage can live until four or five hundred years old.

As for a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage like the old monster of the Heavenly Demon, if he had not encountered such a thing, it would be fine to live from 800 to 1,000 years old. This also made him quite moved, and he really wanted to pursue the peak of the immortal path and gain immortality.

However, after the death of the old demon monster, the position of the sect leader will fall on the great elder Tu Junde. He is a small registered disciple, a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, and goes against the sect leader and the Jindan stage cultivator... Although the enemy is in the light and he is in the dark, if he knows that the Demon Order is on him, what is waiting for him is probably to extract souls and refine souls, and he will never be reborn. You must know that the Demon Sect is a sect that specializes in ghost realm. Everyone is a great expert in how to torture a person's soul.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen couldn't help but feel a little cold and silent.

The old monster of the Heavenly Demon seemed to see his intentions. He smiled and made several magic tricks with his hands. The surroundings were suddenly pitch black, with the demon souls and a few green ghost fires burning. I don’t know how he made them out.

He said in a cold and grim tone: "Of course, you can disagree! Although my body has been completely destroyed, the Nascent Soul is still there and his skills are still there. It is not a big problem to drag you a Qi Refining Cultivator to be buried with him before you die. You have to die... It is up to you to decide which path you take!"

Hearing such cold and ruthless and threatening words from the old monster, he looked at the gloomy and weird ghost fires around him. Jiang Chen felt a chill from his vest. He thought to himself, if he answered the word "no", according to the old monster's personality, he would be immediately the ending of being scavengered.

So he had to nod helplessly and said, "Sect Master, I...I am willing..."

******************************************************************

The autumn wind was bleak and the fallen leaves were flying. Jiang Chen returned to the Demon Soul Peak, and in his room, sighed.

The old monster of the Demon has already melted, and his body was buried secretly.

Now he has been forced to make a vow of the inner demon under the threat of the old demon monster.

This inner demon oath is really binding. He just thought about it for a moment and just took a little laziness and just became an ordinary disciple gangster in the Heavenly Demon Sect. As soon as this thought came out, he felt a sudden pain in his mind and felt a sense of scattering his soul.

It seems that this inner demon oath cannot be made randomly. Jiang Chen felt a little regretful. To relieve its constraints, he had to become the leader of the Heavenly Demon Sect and kill Tu Junde, the great elder of the sect in the late stage of the Jindan period. What a long way to go!

The storage bag of the old monster in the Demon was destroyed as soon as his body exploded. The treasures in the cave have now become Tu Junde's bag. When he encountered a sneak attack and the Nascent Soul escaped with the secret teleportation method, he had only time to take away the Demon Order.

However, the old monster of Heavenly Demon also drew him a big cake... Oh, no! It's a map! The map was to go to the residence of a casual cultivator named Bai Poison Demon Lord. According to the old monster of Heavenly Demon, he had some friendship with this person and had saved his life. He also stored a treasure chest with Bai Poison Demon Lord. However, Jiang Chen didn't need anything in it now, and he had to wait until the foundation was built before he could get it.
To be continued...
