Not far in front of Tang Zhen, there is a giant sinkhole, with hot magma rolling continuously.
In the center of the rolling magma, there is a huge figure.
He looks like a human man, with a handsome and majestic face, but a big bald head.
At this moment, his eyes were closed tightly, obviously falling into a deep sleep.
The ink jade bamboo leaves swept by the strong wind were all inserted into its body, and many bamboo leaf swords were buried in its body.
The bamboo leaf sword exposed outside the body has a trace of flame burning on its surface, showing a cool blue and white color.
As the saying goes, the temperature of these flames must be extremely high.
Tang Zhen's eyes widened, his gaze was attracted by that figure, and his heart was filled with uncontrollable shock.
This behavior of the other party may be a kind of special practice, but it is also a kind of self-abuse.
Tang Zhen felt a little creepy at the thought of being soaked in magma all day long and having countless sharp swords inserted into his body.
If he were given a choice, he would definitely not use this way of practice.
Tang Zhen had already guessed the other party's identity without any deliberate introduction.
"This... is the true body?"
"Yes, this is the original body."
The old monk's voice sounded calm and calm. Unlike before, when the body was mentioned, the state of mind of ascetic cultivation would be instantly broken.
At that time, the old monk had a deep resentment towards his true self, as if he had been ruthlessly abandoned.
Now that we meet again, it is completely different from the past.
Perhaps it was because he saw his true form and got the answer he wanted that the old monk was so relieved.
"What is this doing?"
Tang Zhen couldn't help but asked the old monk.
"This is a top secret. Normally, outsiders should not be informed, but you are different."
The old monk looked at Tang Zhen and said in a faint tone: "The main body stepped into the abyss and became a demon god, but this is not his real goal.
The main body once made an oath to kill all the demons in the underworld so that they will no longer harm the heavens and the world.
This goal is too lofty and difficult to achieve. After all, there are countless powerful demons in the underworld. How can we kill them all by just killing them?
In order to fulfill the oath, the main body thought of a way to refine a set of super demon-slaying sword array.
The demon sword bamboo forest you see is the basic raw material for refining the super sword array. It uses demon flesh and blood as fertilizer and uses its own blood essence to cultivate it.
After the Demonic Sword Bamboo Forest is successfully cultivated, the next step is the training process, using itself as a furnace to continuously refine it until the super sword formation is completely released."
Listening to the old monk's introduction, Tang Zhen couldn't help but be more impressed.
Such a super demon-slaying sword formation cannot be refined by ordinary monks, and the experience of the old monk himself is even more legendary.
From a low-level Famen monk, he grew into a great demon king in a short period of time, and single-handedly destroyed a large number of Famen sects.
After entering the underworld, he became a super strong man at the level of a demon without any background.
Now he has made even greater ambitions to rid the underworld of demons and save the world from the pain of killing.
Although in Tang Zhen's opinion, such an idea was a bit naive and ridiculous, it still did not affect his admiration.
Compared with the other person's experience, I am indeed not worth mentioning. Without the care of the cornerstone platform, I may not even be able to embark on the path of spiritual practice.
It is even more impossible to become the Lord of the Tower City, control a party's cultivation force, and become a strong practitioner in the period of transcending tribulation.
Having said that, Tang Zhen did not look down on himself. After all, the path of cultivation is all about fate, and background and feet are equally important.
The focus is not on the process, but on the final result.
Being able to stand at the top means that you have succeeded, and it doesn't matter what method you use.
At this moment, Tang Zhen understood the cause and effect, and most of the doubts in his heart were eliminated.
Looking at the figure in the abyss, Tang Zhen cupped his fists and saluted, thus expressing his respect.
Although the other party fell into a deep sleep, there was still a trace of consciousness, and he had helped him get out of danger before.
Tang Zhen had clear grievances, so he naturally wanted to express his gratitude.
After taking a deep look, Tang Zhen turned to look at the old monk, and then he had to deal with his own affairs.
"I came to the abyss this time to complete the rescue mission of distributing the artifact and bring you back to Tomb City smoothly and safely.
Now that you have seen your true form and have done everything you want to do, are you willing to leave the abyss with me?"
Upon hearing Tang Zhen's question, the old monk gently shook his head.
"I will stay, stay here, and protect my body until I wake up.
Although my strength is not worth mentioning in this abyss, I can still recite scriptures and accumulate merit.
I will give you a certificate, which will be regarded as the official owner of the transaction, and you will be the owner of the artifact from now on."
Tang Zhen frowned slightly, then nodded.
"Now that you have made up your mind, I will not force it. No matter where it is, as long as you are safe and happy, it is your ideal hometown.
The demon clone I control will also stay in the abyss, and maybe one day we can be neighbors."
The purpose of this trip has been achieved, and Tang Zhen doesn't want to stay any longer. After all, he is just a guest, and he should leave after the things are done.
Moreover, this place always gave him a strong pressure, as if there was a sharp sword hanging above his head.
After all, the old monk's true form is also a super demon, but he hates demons extremely much.
The demon clone he controls will inevitably arouse the other party's resentment.
If it weren't for his special status, he wouldn't be qualified to set foot in this place, and he might have been pierced by ten thousand swords.
"Let's go, we'll see you again by fate."
The old monk bowed and watched Tang Zhen leave with a smile.
Neither Tang Zhen nor the old monk has the ability to leave this place, and their communication is actually informing the ontology.
The matter has been resolved and Tang Zhen can be sent away.
The ontological consciousness has the ability to judge and can bring Tang Zhen into the small world, and it can also send him directly out.
Sure enough, in the next moment, a familiar force appeared again, escorting Tang Zhen out of this small world.
When I dived into the abyss before, I felt the pressure getting bigger and bigger, as if I would be squashed in the next second.
The journey back was completely different, the pressure became less and less, and there were no monsters to stop the attack.
With a demon god protecting him, ordinary demons can be avoided, so how can he be easily provoked?
By the time Tang Zhen came to his senses, he had already appeared on the surface of the abyss, and the energy flow around him was still like magma.
Tang Zhen looked around and made sure there was no danger, then he breathed a sigh of relief.
This rescue mission has been successfully concluded. Although the system was not brought back, it did not affect the final result.
Tang Zhen, who was in Tomb City, had received the prompt and officially became the master of the artifact.
The salvation of the game world can be regarded as successfully completed at this moment.
Even if the Demon God of the Abyss appears and pulls the game world into the abyss of the underworld, Tang Zhen can choose to stand aside and watch.
The next development focus will shift to the abyss of the underworld.
Tang Zhen packed and sealed the artifact and successfully teleported it to Lou City, and then dismantled the teleportation array in Tomb City.
From this moment on, the external channels connecting the building to the city are closed, which is equivalent to eliminating all hidden dangers.
All players in the game world will also enter the underworld from the tomb city and prepare to build a new city.
Under Tang Zhen's arrangements, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner.
The demon clone stayed in the abyss, cultivating the seeds of demonic thoughts and condensing source power crystals.
This is an orthodox way of cultivating demons. Its biggest advantage is that it is safe and can ensure a steady improvement in the level of strength.
If you choose this way of practice, you must have an exclusive territory where you can put the extracted souls and cultivate your own demon army.
The good news does not go to outsiders, and the territory occupied by the players is naturally the best choice.
When necessary in the future, the demon clones controlled by the players can also launch a plane invasion under the leadership of the mutated tree demon.
This piece of land in the underworld can be regarded as a branch established by Lou Cheng, and it will definitely shine in the future. This chapter has been completed!
