A Demon’s Path

Ling Xiao stood up, compared with his extremely sloppy appearance, his eyes, like the brightest stars in the dark night, were extraordinarily shining.

Ling Xiao at this moment has already mastered the technique of Demon Soul and Demon Body. Just based on his formidable mental power, coupled with the boost effect of the Demon Soul Demon Physique Technique, it is enough to shock the entire Dark Soul Prayer Formation!

It can be said that this "abnormal" skill made him suffer a lot, and the benefits he can get are self-evident.

Now Ling Xiao is at the Seven Souls Blue level, but now he can kill the Seven Souls Blue level guy with his own strength alone!

Ling Xiao inspected his body with mental strength, and found that his body's firmness had reached a terrifying level. However, even with Ling Xiao's current strength, there is still a big gap in how he wants to deal with Murong Huatian.

This gap in strength is the gap between the two levels from the green level to the purple level.

"Grandpa, what should I do next?" Ling Xiao looked at Ling Mietian floating in front of him, his gaze was as calm as an ancient well.

"Hehe, I have learned the skills of that perverted old dragon in five years. Even grandpa, I can't compare to you!" Ling Mietian was very satisfied with his grandson's cultivation speed, and nodded repeatedly: "Now you, you have You have the qualifications to enter the Demon Soul Hall to practice."

"Demon Soul Hall? What's that place?" Ling Xiao asked puzzled.

"The Demon Soul Palace is located at the core of the Demon Soul Mountain Range, where the original power of the Demon Soul Masters lies." Ling Mietian explained: "You don't need to know too much now, you will know when you go."

"Yeah." Ling Xiao changed his clothes, and immediately said to his grandfather: "Take me to the Demon Soul Palace now!"

"My dear grandson, why don't you go to the Demon Soul Palace now, why don't you go and see your Long Yuxuan and Li Yuanchong who have already left the customs? You don't care about it, what's the situation outside?" Ling Mietian smiled all over his face. asked intentionally.

Ling Xiao shook her head, and said firmly: "No need. In the past five years, I have thought everything through. Now mother-in-law and mother, when that old Murong Huatian recovers, our time of death will arrive. Therefore, I will try my best to improve my strength every minute and every second. Yuxuan and the others will understand me!"

At this time, the communication crystal on Ling Xiao's body immediately lit up.

Long Yuxuan and Li Yuanchong succeeded in practicing a few days before Ling Xiao, and returned to the Tiancao Sect.

The moment Ling Xiao succeeded in the magic soul demon body technique, the powerful spiritual force impacted the communication crystal on his body, making Long Yuxuan and the others understand what happened at the same time.

"Everything is fine outside, just go ahead and practice, and ignore us."

Long Yuxuan, Zou Wei, and Ling Shiyu took turns to look at Ling Xiao. They didn't want to be a burden to Ling Xiao's thoughts, so they all said something similar to Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao smiled at them and said, "Don't worry, there are still fifteen years left, I will come back as soon as possible!"

The two sides cut off the communication crystal connection at the same time, and neither of them saw the crystal tears in each other's eyes.

There are still fifteen years left, how can the pain of parting and lovesickness be bearable?

"Grandpa, let's go." Ling Xiao knew that if she didn't work hard and lost to Murong Huatian, it would be more than just enduring the pain of parting.

Therefore, Ling Xiaoyi did not look back, without any hesitation.

Ling Mietian smiled slightly: "Go, kid."

Ling Xiao saw his grandfather Ling Mietian swipe with one hand, and the entire space of the Demon Soul Mountain Range was immediately carved out into a strange black space gate.

Without even thinking about it, Ling Xiao got into the black space gate with a whoosh.

The next moment, Ling Xiao stood in front of a tall door, like a villain who had entered the kingdom of giants.

He stood in front of the door, looking up at the plaque above the door. On the plaque, the three big black characters "Devil Soul Hall" several times larger than his size exuded a soul-inducing light.

Even with Ling Xiao's powerful mental power, he couldn't help being shaken by it.

After settling his mind, Ling Xiao took a deep breath and walked in towards the open door.

As soon as he entered the Demon Soul Palace, what Ling Xiao saw was not a luxurious palace, but a circular enclosed hall.

Behind Ling Xiao, there is no longer the door to come in. Obviously, if he wants to get out of this Demon Soul Hall, he must rely on Ling Xiao's own ability.

The hall is very spacious, and the spar energy lamp inside seems to be eternal, exuding purple light, illuminating the surrounding situation clearly.

In fact, this enclosed hall is very simple, except for a dozen or so doors written with characters from the period of the ancient gods in black on the smooth wall of the hall, there are no other unnecessary decorations.

"Eighteen doors?" Ling Xiao counted the number of doors at a glance, what made Ling Xiao frown was not the number of these doors, but the black words on them.

Although Ling Xiao didn't recognize these words, when he scanned the past with his mental power, the words on it seemed to be alive.

Afterwards, the meaning of these words immediately came to Ling Xiao's mind.

"Killing becomes a demon", "infatuation becomes a demon", "obsession becomes a demon", "greedy becomes a demon", "evil thoughts become a demon"......

Eighteen ways to become a demon are placed in front of Ling Xiao, and it depends on which door Ling Xiao chooses to walk out of this hall.

"What did my father choose back then? What did my grandfather choose?" Ling Xiao couldn't help thinking of his grandfather and his father in his mind.

Their two cultivation bases are so tyrannical, it must have something to do with their choices here.

It's just that Ling Xiao didn't know which door would be better to choose.

"Child of the devil, please allow me to explain for you."

Just when Ling Xiao was caught in the dilemma of choice, a phantom of a middle-aged man appeared in front of Ling Xiao's eyes: "No matter which door you enter through here, you will walk out of this hall with greatly increased strength. But, The process of going through that door will be a painful experience, and it will make you obsessed with this kind of evil in the future, unable to extricate yourself."

Ling Xiao thought for a while, then said: "That is to say, if you choose this door, you will have to endure the torment of the evil spirit that this door suffers, just like being cursed for life?"

The middle-aged man smiled slightly and said: "You can understand that. However, if you pass the test of this door, you will not be affected by him. Of course, whether you pass or not, your strength will increase greatly. My child, you But think about it clearly!"

Ling Xiao thought for a while, but still asked the question she wanted to know the answer to earlier: "How did my grandfather and my father choose?"

The middle-aged man still smiled gently and said, "Your grandfather chose to 'intentionally become a demon' back then, and he deliberately chose to fall into the torment of this kind of demon. This kind of demon can make people forget all their emotions and change their minds." Became someone who wouldn't have feelings for any woman."

Ling Xiao's heart twitched violently, he probably also thought of why his grandfather chose this door.

His grandfather and Murong Huatian fell in love with a daughter together, but that woman became his grandmother, but died at the hands of Murong Huatian.

Grandpa's choice is to forget this kind of sadness, and never have feelings for other women in his life. This is where the real love lies!

Ling Xiao couldn't see any emotion from his grandfather in the connection with the green shirt, it was purely a man's instinct.

As for whether the green shirt minded or not, that was beyond Ling Xiao's control.

"Where's my father?" Ling Xiao couldn't help being greatly shocked when she thought that her grandfather was such an infatuated person.

The middle-aged man replied: "That boy Ling Feng, he chose to become a demon all those years ago. Moreover, he also deliberately chose to give up resistance and fall into the torment of this demon."

Determined to become a demon? Ling Xiao's body trembled involuntarily, he knew best what his father's obsession was.

His father chose to fall into the torment of this kind of evil, that is to say, he will never give up until he reaches his goal in this life!

And what his father wanted to achieve was at the expense of Ling Xiao.

"It seems that there can only be one life between me and Dad..." Ling Xiao closed her eyes in pain, no matter who faced such a result, she would not accept it easily.

"Ling Xiao, have you thought it through? Which door do you want to choose?" The middle-aged man asked with a smile.

Ling Xiao opened his eyes again, and once again mentally scanned the ancient characters on the eighteen doors, without making a choice immediately.

"By the way, is there any other choice?" Ling Xiao suddenly said, the middle-aged man was startled for a moment, and then he laughed.

"Boy, you are the smartest person who has passed the trial of the Demon Soul Lord in the past." The eyes of the middle-aged man are full of admiration: "Everyone thinks that there are only these eighteen choices, except you .”

Ling Xiao didn't show any joy, and continued to ask: "Then what's the answer?"

The middle-aged man said slowly: "The answer, of course, is yes. Why, are you unhappy?"

Ling Xiao said calmly: "There's nothing to be happy about. This choice probably won't be easier than these ten choices."

"Well, you're right." The middle-aged man said: "There is one last choice here, and that is to choose 'becoming a demon through one hundred refinements'."

"Bailian?" Ling Xiao frowned: "What are the benefits? What are the disadvantages?"

"The advantage is that your cultivation base can jump to the strongest purple rank in one fell swoop, which is higher than your grandfather and your father's. Moreover, there is another special benefit, you will know when you come out by yourself."

The middle-aged man left a sentence intentionally, making it a secret.

In fact, for Ling Xiao, as long as his cultivation level surpasses that of his grandfather and father, he has the hope of defeating Murong Huatian, whether or not that special benefit is the same.

Later, the middle-aged man said the disadvantages of this choice: "The disadvantage is that if you can't stand the test, you will be trapped in it forever, and you will fall into eternal loneliness and darkness, and no one can help you. The rest, even if you are The other heirs of the Demon Soul Lord know this choice, and no one will choose it."
