It was just four simple words, but they were like the morning bell of an ancient tomb. They seemed to be full of holy light, and the Blood Sorcerer was instantly speechless.
He choked with sobs and didn't know what to say. To be honest, he was touched. Although he was a demon, demons were just a race different from humans. It was just that he had experienced the Demon World, which was different from the Human World. There was no law, no emotional training, and that was why he was so cruel.
But when someone was willing to open their heart to them, they would often have unexpected gains. Qin Shi thought so too, which was why he made friends with demons and the Blood Sorcerer. Obviously, he had made the right bet.
But how he wished that Sister Yu could see all this.
Of course, not all demons could be enlightened. Qin Shi didn't believe that one could become a Buddha after putting down the butcher's knife. Maybe it was possible, but only in the next life. In this life, one had to at least pay for the sins they had left behind, like the Dark Group.
The same principle applied to humans, like the Chaotic Realm.
Qin Shi didn't care about race. He only cared about right and wrong, and whether they were the people he cared about.
But the two of them didn't know that it was because of their conversation tonight that they opened their hearts. In the next few years, they would do amazing things that would make ghosts and gods weep. Their stories would spread from the Barren Spirit Continent for tens of thousands of years.
Of course, this was all in the future. The Blood Sorcerer choked for a moment, then suddenly waved his hand, trying to break through a well-hidden space formation in the deepest part of the Explosive Flame Bead.
Qin Shi reacted quickly and stopped him. "What are you doing?"
"Don't stop me. I'm going to destroy it," the Blood Sorcerer said sternly. "You've told me so much. I don't need it anymore."
Qin Shi anxiously shook his head, "Even if you can't use it, I might be able to. Don't be so impulsive. Leave this formation in the Explosive Flame Bead and you can continue to perfect it. If you want to escape after you're done, I won't stop you. But if you don't want to use it, then leave it to us. The enemies I'm going to face next make me feel afraid. Whether it's the Puppet Group or the Chaotic Lands, they are the peak existences in this world. With my current strength, I can't shake them."
"If there comes a day when I really meet with trouble, I can teleport through space from here. It will definitely be unimaginable to others, and it might even be able to save my life. Moreover, this Explosive Flame Bead has the effect of protecting against fire. I have stored precious Earth Heart Flame within it. Even if it is discovered, ordinary people would need some time to break through the high temperature within it."
Upon hearing this, the Blood Shaman calmed down quite a bit. Qin Shi's words were indeed reasonable. Only then did he grit his teeth and nod. "Alright, then I will continue to complete it. But this time, it is for you. I will definitely not run away again."
Qin Shi smiled gratifyingly, "I know, I believe you."
After that, the Blood Shaman stopped. He hesitated for a long time before saying, "Little guy, when you used the Devouring Heaven Evil Qi and fused it with your mind power, I was a little worried. But before this, there was still a grudge between us that hasn't been resolved, so I didn't say anything. Now that it has been resolved, I want to tell you something."
"Hmm?
What is it? Tell me. "
The Blood Shaman recalled the fleeting worry that he felt when Qin Shi attacked the Devouring Heaven Evil Qi in the Undying Taoist's body. He then said, "I know that you trust the Devouring Heaven Demon Venerable a lot. I have also witnessed the relationship between the two of you several times. In fact, to be honest, I never expected that the Devouring Heaven Demon Venerable would sacrifice hundreds and thousands of years of cultivation and even his life to protect you. I never believed that humans would really be on good terms with the Demon Race, but I have seen it from the two of you."
"That is a relationship that has broken the iron law that has existed for thousands of years. But I want to tell you that even so, you can't use the Devouring Heaven Evil Qi so recklessly. Otherwise, it will cause you big trouble."
"You are saying that the outside world will find out?"
Qin Shi was stunned for a moment before he said with relief, "Don't worry, I have long been aware of this. Before the Evil Demon went into hibernation, he deliberately reminded me, so I will be more careful."
Unexpectedly, the Blood Shaman suddenly shook his head.
"That is only one of the reasons. What I am really worried about is not this. I believe that with your current temperament, you will not expose the Devouring Heaven Evil Qi to the outside world unless you have no other choice."
"Hmm?" Qin Shi frowned. "What is it then?"
"It is your own body. Although I also believe that the Devouring Heaven Demon Venerable will not harm you, it can be seen from the Devouring Heaven Evil Qi. When you use it, there is no backlash. Instead, it is very gentle."
"Even so, the Devouring Heaven Ferocious Qi and the Devouring Heaven Ferocious Qi are the two most powerful Ferocious Qi in our Demon World. Only the Devouring Heaven Ferocious Qi is able to contend against it, and you only have a human body. Even though your body is considered extremely powerful among humans, it is still incomparable to the wild beasts in the Beast World, let alone us Ferocious Demons. The human body is really too weak, so when you use the Devouring Heaven Ferocious Qi without restraint, even if the Devouring Heaven Ferocious Qi deliberately restrains it, it will be hard to avoid some of its residual power injuring you. These injuries may not appear, nor will they be discovered by you, but they will accumulate in your body. It may not be a big problem in the short term, but as time goes by, problems will definitely appear. Once it explodes, it will be an unmanageable disaster. It is not something you can bear, even with the Sweet Pouring Raindrops Formation."
Qin Shi frowned. He had not thought about this.
"So I advise you to use the Devouring Heaven Evil Qi less in the future. To you, at least for now, it will only bring you harm." The Blood Shaman said sternly.
But hearing that, Qin Shi felt slightly helpless. If he had not been forced to, why would he not want to avoid it?
He was also not willing to use the Demonic Force. Not to mention whether it would be a burden on his body, it would at least have a huge impact on his future cultivation.
After a few times with the help of the Demonic Force, he could clearly feel that there was a problem with his foundation. After all, every time he used the Demonic Force, it would cause his cultivation to soar to a level beyond the limits that his body could bear. This would become a huge obstacle to his cultivation.
However, every time he encountered trouble, when could he rely on himself without using the Demonic Force?
He was really forced to do this, but he also knew that the Blood Shaman had good intentions. After taking a deep breath, he nodded. "Don't worry, I understand. I will try my best to avoid it."
Hearing that, the Blood Shaman felt much more at ease.
After that, Qin Shi also fell into a short period of thought.
"The Blood Shaman is right. This is not a solution. I really can't rely on the Demonic Force too much. I should increase my own strength."
"Next, I have to work harder."
He clenched his fist and thought to himself. At this moment, a delicate shout suddenly woke him up. Xiao Mi Cai's voice came from the lake.
"Daddy, be careful!"
Qin Shi abruptly raised his head, and his pupils violently contracted. He saw the Undying Daoist, who was controlled by the golden mark, suddenly move, and it was done without his command.
This gave him a bad premonition. The result was as he expected, the Undying Taoist actually broke free from the golden mark, his old eyes were still bloodshot as he pounced at him, a palm slapping down on his left shoulder.
"Stubborn!"
Qin Shi's eyes flickered, and his body flashed. After dodging the palm wind, his killing intent was revealed. "Hmph, I've already dispelled the Demonic Qi for you, but you're still so rude. That's unforgivable."
After saying that, golden radiance flowed between his fingers, which were wrapped with the Sky-Piercing Lightning. He had already closed in on the Undying Daoist's back. Given the Undying Daoist's current condition, even if he didn't die, he would probably lose half his life.
But suddenly, the Blood Shaman shouted, "Little fella, wait a minute. Don't kill him yet. He seems to have not regained his consciousness!"
"Hmm?"
Qin Shi froze on the spot. Then, his pupils dilated, and a formless psychic force spread out, directly penetrating the Undying Daoist's body. Then, he frowned in surprise.
In the Undying Daoist's body, the Spiritual Vein that he had just dispelled had once again gathered a pitch-black baleful aura. Furthermore, the baleful aura was even stronger than before.
"What's going on?" Qin Shi was surprised.
The Blood Shaman was silent for a moment before saying, "No, if I'm not wrong, the source of the Demonic Qi isn't at his Spirit Meridian. It's somewhere else. The Demonic Qi here is only superficial. You've dispelled a ball of it, so it's being injected again."
"It's not the source?"
Qin Shi's eyes turned. This surprised him. Then, he gritted his teeth and leaped up, using his soul power as an opportunity to lock the Undying Daoist in the clouds. Only then did the Undying Daoist stop his manic actions.
Then, his psychic force left his body and entered the Undying Daoist's body. This time, he didn't go through the Spirit Meridian. Instead, he swam towards the other meridians of the Undying Daoist in an attempt to find the true source of the Demonic Qi.
However, after some probing, he tensed up and found nothing. "How is this possible?
I've already probed his body. If the Spirit Meridian isn't the source, then there's no place in his body that can hide the Demonic Qi. "
The Blood Shaman shook his head. "I don't know either. But I can feel that there's a huge hand outside the Spirit Meridian. That's the real culprit of the Demonic Qi. It's just that I can't find it."
"If that's the case, then the Demonic Qi is really well-hidden."
