After driving that annoying guy Fan Wuyin away from his mind, Baili Chengfeng looked at Gu Zhu.
"You said that the previous Demon Lord Danqing had tried to ascend?"
"Humph," Gu Zhu said dissatisfied: "What do you mean by trying? If Fan Wuyin hadn't suddenly killed him, Lord Demon Lord would have ascended to the upper realm!"
"Can a demon cultivator also ascend?"
Jiang Deng was also attracted by this topic.
As we all know, although the demonic cultivator's cultivation level improves quickly, it is impossible to survive the catastrophe and ascend to immortality because of the many evils it has committed.
Therefore, even those with advanced demonic cultivation will only suppress their own cultivation and prevent their cultivation from reaching the realm of venerables. Otherwise, they will die without a burial place when the catastrophe comes.
Most demon cultivators would never try to overcome the heavenly tribulation unless they had to, but Gu Zhu actually said that the previous demon lord almost succeeded in overcoming the tribulation and ascending to heaven?
Jiang Deng couldn't help but become curious about this Demon Lord Danqing.
Gu Zhu sneered, "You are too underestimated by Lord Demon. She and Lord Jiang Deng are known as the two most powerful female devils in the ten regions!"
Jiang Deng: "..."
Thank you. She really didn’t know that after her death, she would be given the title of female devil.
When she was still alive in her previous life, she was known as the number one female cultivator in the world of immortality. She was followed by countless followers wherever she went. How come she became a female devil after her death?
At that time, she spent most of her time in her spiritual mansion teaching her apprentices, rarely going out, let alone committing numerous murders. She really didn't know that she would become a female devil in the eyes of everyone.
The key is, what bad thing did she do?
Jiang Deng said speechlessly: "Then you controlled the demon and the golem to chase and beat me earlier, wasn't it just because I was also called Jiang Deng?"
Gu Zhu said angrily: "Otherwise! Is there anything else about you that deserves the attention of this protector?"
Jiang Deng: "..."
No wonder the demon didn't attack her like crazy when she first entered the Soul Locking Tower. The incident only started after Ying Ling called her name.
It turns out that it was really because her name was Jiang Deng that she offended the demon cultivator.
Seeing Gu Zhu's expression of hatred for him, Jiang Deng couldn't help but ask: "What heinous thing did Venerable Jiang Deng, who shares my name, do to make you hate her so much?"
Gu Zhu gritted his teeth and said: "Thousands of years ago, in order to ascend to immortality, the evil cultivator Jiang Deng extracted the souls of tens of thousands of monks on the Immortal Platform to help her ascend. How could she do such an unconscionable thing?
Is she considered a female devil?"
"My poor mother just went to watch the excitement near Shengxian Platform, but her soul was extracted by that hateful evil cultivator Jiang Deng, and she died for no reason!"
Jiang Deng held his forehead, she really didn't do this.
She is born with a body of chaos. As long as she cultivates to the realm of the Venerable, she can ascend safely. There is no need to work hard to extract the souls of the monks and absorb their power.
In fact, the real cause of death of the tens of thousands of onlookers monks was that their souls and spiritual power were extracted from the trapped immortal array set up by the sixth disciple Leng Chaosheng in advance, and then their bodies and souls disappeared.
The Trapped Immortal Formation is a god-level formation. It cannot be stimulated by the power of one person born from the cold tide, so it killed so many innocent people.
It was because of this formation that she failed to ascend, her strength was greatly reduced, and she was captured by seven apprentices, imprisoned in the underground palace, and finally killed...
Jiang Deng couldn't defend herself, but Baili Chengfeng couldn't help but frowned and said: "Don't talk nonsense, Venerable Jiang Deng has always been philanthropic and kind, but whenever she sees injustice, she will come to the rescue. I don't believe it."
She would kill tens of thousands of monks for her own selfish gain, there must be some misunderstanding in this."
Gu Zhu sneered: "Even if she had been saving lives and healing the wounded before, she must have been pretending on purpose! All the good things she did were to paralyze everyone and attract monks to watch her ascend. Didn't you see that she succeeded in the end?
?”
Jiang Deng laughed angrily, "Succeeded? Did she succeed in ascension? Did she succeed?"
"..."
Gu Zhu was speechless for a while. It took him a long time to find his voice and defended: "That's because she has calculated everything except her seven disciples. She will bully her master and destroy her ancestors for the sake of justice.
Kill Jiang Deng on the rooftop! Known in history as the Battle of Ascension!"
"Go out and inquire about it. Everyone in the world of cultivators knows about this! When it comes to the evil cultivator Jiang Deng, everyone will kill him. Since your name is Jiang Deng, you should die together with the evil cultivator Jiang Deng.
!”
Jiang Deng was stunned immediately.
She didn't expect that the apprentice she had brought up with her own hands would not only betray and kill her, but also frantically throw dirty water on her.
Not only did they divide her soul, but they even put all the blame on her, turning her into an evil cultivator and a female devil who was reviled by everyone!
The hatred in his heart was burning fiercely, and Jiang Deng suddenly clenched his fists.
No amount of explanations are useless now, because looking at Gu Zhu's appearance, you know that the monks who brainwashed her seven disciples have no doubt that she is a female devil and the seven disciples are messengers of justice.
.
As for the truth?
She is dead, and what the living people say is the truth!
"How can the rights and wrongs of our predecessors be discussed by you, a lonely ghost?" A trace of displeasure flashed through Baili Chengfeng's eyes, and a cluster of silver flames condensed on his fingertips and flew towards Gu Zhu.
.
Silver flames fell on Gu Zhu and began to burn rapidly.
"Ah! Don't kill me, I still want to..."
Gu Zhu wanted to say something more, but the silver flames had already swallowed up his whole body, and as the curls of green smoke rose, his soul was wiped out.
Jiang Deng did not expect that Baili Chengfeng would kill Gu Zhu in one fell swoop, and was extremely surprised. "Do you also believe that Venerable Jiang Deng didn't do that?"
Baili Chengfeng nodded, "That Venerable Jiang Deng has always hated evil and would never do such a thing."
Jiang Deng was a little embarrassed by the praise. He touched his nose and complained: "Speak as if you know her."
Baili Chengfeng just smiled lightly and did not refute.
A trace of confusion flashed in Jiang Deng's eyes. Could it be that this person really knew her in her previous life?
But why doesn't she remember such a person in her memory?
While Jiang Deng was racking his brains to search for past memories, he suddenly heard Baili Chengfeng's voice ringing in his ears, with a hint of annoyance in his tone.
"Jiang Deng... Well, have you ever thought about how we can leave if Gu Zhu, who controls the demon statue, dies?"
Jiang Deng: "Uh..."
She suddenly remembered that as soon as she and Baili Chengfeng entered the golem, Gu Zhu had closed all three of the golem's mouths. Now it was really a problem for them to leave.
"Gu Zhu has not practiced the ghost way, and he has no magic power, so he can control the demon statue through other methods..."
At this point, Jiang Deng's eyes lit up, "Let's look around to see if there is any mechanism to control the golem here!"
