Magic Chu Yang smiled knowingly and said, "In most cases, we won't need to take action; someone will solve this problem for us."
Upon hearing this, a figure flashed through the mind of the immortal Chu Yang, and he also laughed.
After chatting for a while, the immortal Chu Yang left the Demon-Suppressing Sword in the Soul Palace and returned to the world.
After returning, Chu Yang glanced at the blood-soaked ground and strode towards the last floor.
at the same time.
The Sword Immortal is vividly describing just how powerful the demons at the bottom of the Demon Tower are!
The demon suppressed at the bottom of the Demon Locking Tower was the Shu Mountain Sword Sect disciple who had fallen into demonic possession, named Jiang Ming.
"Decades ago, there was a genius disciple of the Sword Sect named Jiang Ming, who was the adopted son of the sect leader Jiang Juezhi."
“Jiang Ming has been cultivating under the guidance of the sect leader Jiang Juezhi since childhood. He is adept at Taoist magic and swordsmanship. There are no bottlenecks or constraints in his cultivation. In just over ten years, he has become a powerful figure who can overpower the younger generation.”
"In those years, our Sword Sect always used the name of the Shu Mountain Sect to the outside world, not the Immortal Sword Sect."
"It was after that disaster that the Sword Sect fell into decline and has not won a single sword qi contest since."
At this point, the Sword Immortal sighed.
"The root of the disaster was that Jiang Ming fell in love with a fox demon when he went down the mountain to cultivate in the world."
"The love between a human and a demon is taboo, especially since Jiang Ming is a disciple of Mount Shu. After the affair was exposed, the sect leader Jiang Juezhi dispatched a large number of disciples to hunt down the fox demon and imprison her in the Demon Locking Tower."
"Upon hearing the news, Jiang Ming rushed over and saw the dying fox demon in front of the Demon Locking Tower. Torn between his master's nurturing grace and the affection of his fellow disciples, and the love of his life, Jiang Ming fell into a demonic trance and ultimately succumbed to demonic possession."
"He was sealed into the Demon Locking Tower at the same time as the Evil Sword Immortal. However, compared to the Evil Sword Immortal, Jiang Ming is much stronger. He was originally the most talented seed of cultivation who fell into the demonic path. When the Evil Sword Immortal was born, he was also tainted by the aura of the extraterrestrial demons."
"It's already a stroke of luck that only one Evil Sword Immortal escaped after the Demon-Sealing Tower's seal was broken this time."
"If it were Jiang Ming who came out, then Mount Shu would have been wiped out long ago."
After hearing the whole story from the Sword Immortal, everyone felt a chill run down their spines. If Jiang Ming was really that powerful, how should Chu Yang deal with him?
Chapter 154. A Shocking Turn of Events! A Stable Triangle!
154.
Chu Yang was also having a headache about how to deal with Jiang Ming, not because he couldn't beat him, but because there was an adorable little girl standing in front of him.
Jiang Wan'er.
The daughter born to Jiang Ming and a fox demon.
It was precisely because of Jiang Wan'er's existence that Jiang Ming did not completely fall into the demonic path and still retained a sliver of clarity.
The moment Chu Yang entered the final level, he encountered Jiang Wan'er.
Sensing the life force emanating from Chu Yang, Jiang Wan'er was initially overjoyed, but then became frightened. She feared that Chu Yang would be killed by her demon-possessed father, so she urged him to turn back.
Chu Yang hadn't expected that the last level would be Jiang Ming, but it made sense, as there was no one stronger than him here.
Even the Heavenly Demon Emperor would only face certain death if he confronted Jiang Ming, who had fallen into demonic possession.
Jiang Ming is a very special person. Although he was the cause of the disaster at Mount Shu, in the final analysis, it was his beloved master and fellow disciples who drove him to the brink of madness.
If he had a choice, he wouldn't have taken this path. Unfortunately, no one gave him a choice, or rather, forced him to choose a path he didn't want to take.
That generation of the Sword Sect, from its leader Jiang Juezhi to its disciples, was more like reaping what they sowed. They planted the seeds, and then they borne the bitter fruit; that was all.
From beginning to end, Jiang Ming was more like a victim in that special environment.
Chu Yang could kill the Heavenly Demon Emperor without hesitation, but he hesitated again and again when it came to Jiang Ming.
"You'd better leave quickly, or you won't be able to leave if Father doesn't regain his senses!"
Jiang Wan'er shook Chu Yang's arm, anxiously begging him to leave.
Do you think he's in a lot of pain right now?
Chu Yang suddenly asked.
Jiang Wan'er looked at her father, who was separated by a door, with a deep gaze and a sorrowful expression. "Of course it was very painful. Father lived in self-blame every day. He went crazy because of self-blame, and because of his madness, he killed many people. This cycle has continued for many years."
“His lucid moments are getting shorter and shorter. Sooner or later he may turn into a monster who only knows how to kill, but I can’t leave him because I am his only family.”
Chu Yang sighed, "I can try to free him, but he might die. Can you accept that?"
Jiang Wan'er stared blankly at Chu Yang with an incredulous look, as if asking if it was really possible.
"Father should seek liberation rather than completely succumb to demonic ways."
Jiang Wan'er gave a positive answer.
"Then wait for me outside."
Chu Yang slowly walked into the room.
At this point, Jiang Ming is much more terrifying than the Jiang Ming in the original story. When he became possessed by a demon, he summoned a celestial demon, and after his death, he was infected by the aura of the celestial demon, making him a half-ghost, half-demon.
In terms of the bizarre and extraordinary, even the Evil Sword Immortal would probably pale in comparison.
"who are you?"
Jiang Ming tilted his head, his eyes bloodshot and filled with madness.
Chu Yang cupped his hands and said, "Junior Chu Yang greets senior."
"Disciples of Mount Shu?"
Jiang Ming recognized the Taoist robe on Chu Yang's body, his tone suddenly became wooden, and the next second, his pupils turned into a sea of blood.
The words "Shushan" act like a switch, stimulating Jiang Ming to the greatest extent.
Jiang Ming instantly became possessed by a demon.
"I was originally planning to chat with you like a swordsman, but there's no need for that now."
Helpless, Chu Yang summoned Fengdu, and the Yellow Springs water surged out from the void, drowning the demon-possessed Jiang Ming.
Just as Jiang Ming was about to make his move, he seemed to be frozen in place, his expression becoming extremely painful and struggling.
The Yellow Springs can severely damage the soul, but it will also wash away the demonic aura from Jiang Ming. If he's lucky, Jiang Ming will recover before he dissipates and be able to say a few words to Jiang Wan'er.
At first, Jiang Ming would let out wails, but as the demonic thoughts diminished, his eyes gradually cleared.
Even if it is still extremely painful, it seems insignificant.
In the end, Jiang Ming's figure grew increasingly frail, like a bubble in a dream, as if it would shatter at the slightest touch.
"Thank you, young friend. After years of being in a daze, I am finally able to regain my consciousness."
Jiang Ming nodded slightly, a kind smile on his face.
"Time is running out. If the senior has something to say, let's leave it to Jiang Wan'er."
Chu Yang turned around and called Jiang Wan'er, who was outside the door, in.
Because she hadn't spoken to Jiang Ming for so long, Jiang Wan'er was a little timid and walked very slowly.
"If we don't say something soon, the senior will be leaving."
Chu Yang reminded her, then turned and walked outside, leaving the father and daughter alone.
In just a few breaths, Jiang Wan'er's cries came from inside. Before she could even experience the love of her father and mother, her parents had passed away one after the other.
When Chu Yang entered again, Jiang Ming had already disappeared. His soul had been cleansed by the Yellow Springs and was qualified to enter reincarnation. Otherwise, with his soul tainted by the aura of the Heavenly Demon, he would have surely been reduced to ashes.
Jiang Wan'er thanked Chu Yang through tears, but Chu Yang waved his hand and glanced at the surrounding magic array.
As the lowest level of the Demon-Sealing Tower, this is the foundation of the entire tower and naturally the place with the most magic arrays.
It would take much longer to record everything completely.
Chu Yang didn't care at all that Jiang Wan'er was right next to him. He took out various high-tech devices in front of her, and the little girl who was crying was immediately attracted to his attention, and her crying stopped abruptly.
Anyway, given her status, no one would believe her if she went out and said anything, and she wouldn't stay in Shushan anyway.
Just as Chu Yang was repairing the magic array, a sudden change occurred outside the Demon Locking Tower.
Bai Yue and Xie Jianxian arrived together and suddenly attacked Qingwei and the others who were maintaining the magic array, stealing the Five Elemental Pearls.
The Five Elements Formation was broken instantly.
The situation that had been painstakingly maintained was destroyed in an instant, and the Demon-Sealing Tower, which had been mostly repaired, began to crumble again.
"Damn it! It was my carelessness!"
Seeing that Chu Yang's side was progressing exceptionally smoothly, Dugu Jiansheng lowered his guard, resulting in a grave mistake. Enraged, he attacked, unleashing countless sword energies that swept over Baiyue Xiejianxian.
The Sword Immortal, equally enraged, smashed his wine gourd on the ground and used his sword control technique to trap the two, assisting his senior brother, the Sword Saint, in eliminating these two evil heretics.
Xu Changqing ran towards Qingwei and Canggu in a panic, a fear he had never felt before welling up inside him.
Li Xiaoyao and Jing Tian were also about to go over, but Lin Yueru stopped them, saying anxiously, "We'll handle things here. You two go and help Senior Sword Saint and Senior Drunken Sword Immortal. We absolutely cannot let Baiyue and Evil Sword Immortal take away the Five Elemental Pearls!"
Upon hearing this, Li Xiaoyao immediately rushed towards Baiyue, and Jingtian followed with the Demon Sword in hand.
Turning her head, Lin Yueru saw Xu Changqing holding Cang Gu, his face pale, and her heart sank.
"Brother Xu, cheer up and quickly feed the Blood Bodhi to the seniors."
