Chapter 2406 The Devils



Chapter 2406  The Devils

The more Ziran thought about it the more difficult it got for him to determine what Lin Mo was.

The information about the devils was highly restricted and even the major sects of the Immortal Realm only knew about the two basic Houtian and Xiantian devils that were more 'common'. The devils that were of other types were considered to be a lot rare and were also a level of dangerous where even knowing about them was risky.

This was why their information was restricted until a devil of that type appeared.

There was another big reason that the information about the devils was restricted. This was because the devils not only inspired terror and fear, they also brought temptations with them.

If there was one thing the devils liked more than killing and terrifying people, it was to corrupt them.

They would tempt cultivators with promises of power.

And the worst part was that they actually followed though with their promises as long as the cost was paid. One could surely become powerful; rising to the top of the chain was easy as long as one followed a devil and their sweet whispers.

But it also spelled disaster for all the others.

The power of devils was not obtained with a low cost and while it was fast, it also changed a person.

Those that were tempted by the power of the devils and used their techniques were called as the Devil Cultivators.

The Devil cultivators were also considered as the ultimate evil faction and both the orthodox and unorthodox fought against them.

Even the demon race and demonic cultivators didn't dare to make connections with the devils easily.

They were the one faction that would force the entire immortal realm to unite against them.

Ziran half thought that Lin Mu could have learned a Devil Cultivation technique but he had shown no signs of it. Even the Slaughter aura they had felt from him back then was incomparable to the domineeringness and terror that Lin Mo exuded.

Ziran himself had never faced a Devil cultivator before as they simply didn't exist in this time. Or even if there were some, they were not in the eyes of the Immortal Court due to being beyond their reach. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

'They do tend to appear in the Farlands more as there is no guidance of the Immortal Court and the guardian beasts there. People and races that live there have no idea about their dangers thus it is a lot easier for them to appear there.' Ziran remembered a few old records he had managed to find in the Farlands during his expedition there.

Among them there was a cryptic entry that he finally recalled.

'When the worlds stabilize and rise,

When the peaks shake no more,

When the fishermen return in peace for a thousand years, When the peasants enjoy bounty and see no blight,

They appear.

When the races see beyond the horizon, When the immortals tread the rivers of Dao,

When the scholars chart new wisdom,

When the ascetics all hide,

They appear.

The ones that are beyond,

The ones that cull,

The ones that show the cruel truth,

The ones that equalize,

The True Ones…'

Ziran didn't know what this entry was about at first, but further research into it showed him that it was related to the devils.

He eventually determine that it talked about some kind of devil, but he only reached dead ends upon further search.

He also knew that something like this was best not to be talked about, thus he had kept it to himself all these years. Eventually after all that time, he had almost forgotten about it.

Until now.

'Could it be… Could it be a True One?' Ziran questioned but feared to confirm it.

He didn't even know what a 'True One' was meant to be, but with how unfathomable it was and similarly how unfathomable Lin Mo was, he couldn't help but put two and two together.

'If he really is that… Then is this worse or better than Yao Changying?' Ziran was in a dilemma.

Yao Changying's acts were despicable to say the least, but a True One was beyond that in Ziran's mind.

It was a taboo that shouldn't even be known about, much less to witness. And yet, he had possibly experienced both.

The words of Lin Mo also echoed in his mouth.

'Some things are best kept unsaid…' Ziran decided to end his train of thoughts at that point and wondered if he should take a oath of forgetfulness.

~HUALA~

But as these thoughts passed though his mind, their journey seemingly came to an end for a large change happened.

"UGH! Heavens save us!" they couldn't help cry out as their sensation of body returned, but it felt painfully cramped.

Their sense of vision returned as well and the only thing they saw was an endless expanse of blue.

~WHOOSH~

A familiar scent of salt and brine presented to them, letting them know that they were above an ocean or a sea.

"Shit!" of course they quickly realized that they were currently falling towards an ocean from a great height.

"QI! I can't use it!?" Qiao De who had also come to his senses realized.

"What?!" the others tried to use their Qi too and couldn't mobilize it. They could sense it in their bodies, but there was still a level of dissociation that didn't allow them to control it.

"Dammit, this'll bad if we don't slow down." Even Crown Prince Feng Shun would be injured if he took a fall from such height at his cultivation base.

~FLUTTER~

It was at this point that a person fell past his side.

"Lin Mu?!" Daoist Chu noticed the unconscious man. His state seemed to have returned to normal and the ominous aura had disappeared. "Catch him!" Elder Hu said as everyone tried to move.

But no matter how much they tried they simply continued to flail in the air.
