Lord of Deception

Before, Yu Ziqing knew the original origin of these big demons, and also knew that the Cliff God King was unable to leave there because he wanted to keep the law.

But this is just a name and a description. He really doesn't know the details.

Now Zhong Shouzheng is facing an unprecedented danger. His sensory illusions are clearer and larger than ever before, which is equivalent to seeing something concrete intuitively.

Thinking back then, when Yu Ziqing held the white sword given by Han Dong, Zhong Shouzheng's sensory illusion only sensed a white sword falling in the air, and nothing else.

Yu Ziqing asked Zhong Shouzheng in detail about all the details of the illusion.

If it weren't for the fear of being drawn into a picture, it might be sensed by the Cliff God King. Yu Ziqing wouldn't have to ask for details bit by bit to build an impression in his mind.

After the complete impression emerged in his mind, Yu Ziqing closed his eyes slightly.

Now I finally understand why when I had contact with the Cliff God King from a distance, I felt that this guy was obviously different from other big demons.

Even the Yang Demon in the Extremely Cold Forbidden Land does not have a strong demonic energy, but it does not have the feeling of the mighty power of the gods. The Yang Demon is more like a big demon that has lost control of its power, rather than a god.

In addition, this guy was particularly difficult to deal with the Qi Yin King, so Yu Ziqing conveniently called him a Yang Demon.

As for the other big demons, they are standard monsters.

Cliff God King doesn't feel this way.

Now Yu Ziqing completely understood that what he was keeping was the way of the gods, not that he was trapped there. According to Zhong Shouzheng's description, it was more like he took the initiative to cross the two ends, holding one side with one hand, and forcibly building a connection.

Use it to become a bridge between gods and demons.

Just like what Yu Ziqing did before, the way of refining the spirit and the way of refining the body conflict with each other, and the place where they overlap is Yu Ziqing, who is the original bridge.

This gave Yu Ziqing the possibility to practice both divine and physical training, and yet have the opportunity to reach a high realm.

As the Cliff God King, what he did was to give those gods who had been knocked down as demons the possibility of returning to the gods again.

Judging from the illusion described by Zhong Shouzheng, most of his body has now been separated from both sides, and even his head can be poked out. Only his two hands have not been seen from beginning to end.

This illusion, coupled with the information obtained that year, means that this guy will come within a thousand years.

It can be roughly inferred that the Cliff God King has been guarding the Tao for countless years, and it is not just a simple defense. He is almost able to escape from there.

This situation means that he has completely defended it and will never get worse. Even if he leaves and no longer defends it, the connection between the gods and the devil will not be broken.

Gods who have been knocked down into great demons still have a way to rise back up and complete their transformation.

Even if it's a small matter, he can't leave there completely, but he can leave there for a while without affecting the overall situation.

This information is very important.

Being trapped there and actively being trapped there are two different things.

Yu Ziqing felt that after the opening of the tenth level, before those who could break through the tenth level touched the ceiling again and the situation of the whole world was stabilized again, it was better not to rush the Cliff God King.

If this guy is cornered and he doesn't defend, he would rather fall than kill him.

Then the trouble is not just his trouble.

It's better to take it easy and put him in the back row first...

It just so happens that Zhong Shouzheng is now considered a double agent. Stabilizing the Cliff God King is not a big problem, and Zhong Shouzheng should like this job very much.

The benefits I got from the Cliff God King were things that no amount of money could buy.

Now that Yu Ziqing won't let him do it, he probably won't be happy.

After letting Zhong Shouzheng go to rest, Yu Ziqing had no intention of hiding Zhong Shouzheng's existence. There were actually many people who knew about him.

Going to see the Cliff God King, if you hide it, you will be exposed one day.

So from the very beginning, Yu Ziqing planned to sell myself out, so I wouldn’t have to act all the time, and I wouldn’t have to worry about falling over every day.

Even if Yu Ziqing and Zhong Shouzheng appear openly anywhere, they are not afraid of anyone knowing, let alone the Cliff God King.

That guy would probably be relieved to know that Zhong Shouzheng's spy work was going very smoothly.

Zhong Shouzheng's daily work is still the same as before, maintaining the large formations in the forbidden area of ​​​​Jinlan Mountain, and then seeing if anyone is willing to follow him to practice god.

In fact, if he wants to accept a disciple, he shouldn't make it too easy. No matter who he is, it's very simple for a Yuanshen realm boss to accept a disciple.

Even if you take on a disciple and then work as a cow and horse, that won't be a big problem.

It's a pity that there is a saying that money can't buy me. I am willing, but Zhong Shouzheng is not.

He just likes to hang out in places like Jinlan Mountain where the average person has big muscles, especially the kind that trains the body and the brain, he likes it the most.

I don’t know what serious illness this is.

Yu Ziqing couldn't help but ask, and he said that he was practicing deception. Even the big muscle tyrant in Jinlan Mountain couldn't deceive him into training with him, so how could he deceive the one in the void in the future.

What did Yu Ziqing say? He pinched his nose and endured it, just let him go.

If he could fool someone like Qing Qing or Er Han into practicing god-making with him, then Yu Ziqing would have nothing to say.

Even if he went to deceive the chief, as long as he was not beaten to death by the chief, Yu Ziqing would never say a word.

Since coming back from the void, it was as if he had experienced several epiphanies. Zhong Shouzheng had changed from a retired veteran cadre who held a thermos cup and basked in the sun all day long, to a very energetic and motivated person who looked like he had just joined the job. Like an ox or a horse soaked in chicken blood.

Yu Ziqing thought about it and observed it for a long time, but he didn't think there was anything wrong.

Probably, maybe it's because he hasn't been exposed to anything new in the way of refining gods for a long, long time.

Now that I have seen that splendid road and watched the Cliff God King show his way, I have become like a young man who has just started on the road again, and I can understand it.

Everything seemed to be the same as before. Yu Ziqing took the book of human faces and got into a big seal. After unlocking the seal of the golden book, he slowly began to examine it.

All the vests of the Cliff God King were destroyed, and the rest were not vests. Yu Ziqing was also afraid that the guy would bury a hole in them.

Check it out here. If there is a problem, everything in this seal will be destroyed directly.

The seal he chose is a typical disaster seal that targets individuals. It originally relies on violent means to destroy the sealed object.

On every page of the golden book, there is a human face with eyes closed.

Soon, Yu Ziqing noticed something different.

Some people's faces are very calm and energetic, and they look like living people.

There are also some that are lifeless, but through induction, you can also feel that these lifeless faces seem to carry more things.

Yu Ziqing felt it carefully for a long time, and it was almost confirmed.

The former are white-water eggs that are still alive, while the latter are already dead.

Those energetic, like sleeping faces, only bear the past before they turned into white water eggs.

And those lifeless ones, which look like corpse faces at first glance, carry not only their past before they turned into white-water eggs, but also everything else.

After turning into a white water egg, everything will be sacrificed according to the rules after death.

This is the mark of life, but its power has been completely consumed, and now all that is left is the "corpse".

Everything about a creature was turned into power and was consumed by the Cliff God King.

No wonder the Cliff God King is so cheerful. The most common thing here is the dead face, and I don’t know how many years he has accumulated it.

The proportion of alive white-water eggs among all the white-water eggs throughout the ages is actually very small.

Since it has no value as a vest, the Cliff God King probably doesn't care at all.

Finally, there is one kind, which is probably the only one that the Cliff God King cares about.

It was a translucent face, and Yu Ziqing recognized it at a glance. It was the face of the new emperor.

It seems that the new emperor uses his face as a painting, but in fact, the face is not complete.

The face on his face must be invisible, so he can only be used as a painting.

After turning over and over, Yu Ziqing found another transparent face, but this face was also lifeless. The power in it had long been absorbed and exhausted by the Cliff God King.

But the next moment, Yu Ziqing's pupils suddenly dilated, and he couldn't help but fall back in shock.

He looked at it carefully for a long time, and the more he looked, the more shocked he became.

This face looked exactly like Hajime's.

How is it possible? Why is Hajime's face here?

If this was Hajime, how could the Cliff God King give it out so easily?

No, even if it wasn't Hajime, the Cliff God King wouldn't have given him this translucent face so easily.

Why? why is that?

Yu Ziqing was completely confused.

Is this a trap? In fact, this face is not Hajime's, but the one buried in the pit by the Cliff God King?

Or...the Cliff God King himself didn't even know he had this translucent face in his hand?

He just traded "all" faces and pasts based on the transaction content?

And this face that he didn't remember at all was still included in "everything".

If this is also a part of Hajime's previous trap, he should be able to get the result by asking Hajime himself.

Yu Zi calmed down for a moment, and then turned the page.

He couldn't go to see Shi. Ever since he had an exchange with Shi, Yu Ziqing hadn't been there. Even though he had reached the fifth realm of cultivation in the first chapter of Dayan, he didn't go.

It was like the first chapter of Dayan itself, reminding him and resisting.

Since Hajime is not completely dead, does the Cliff God King also know this?

Was this translucent face given on purpose, just to bury it in a trap?

Yu Ziqing could only suppress the matter for the time being. He would not try it until he understood it.

If you make a mistake, it may be an irreversible disaster.

Let’s go step by step first and see if New No. 5 and the others want their own face now and in the past.

As for the one given to the new Emperor Qian, if you wait a little longer, it won't be ready yet, so how can it be given to him so easily?

Yu Ziqing also wanted to try first to see if he could get a glimpse of the past on these faces.

If the new Qianhuang once had a loving father and a filial son, and he returns these things to the new Qianhuang, and he suddenly realizes and betrays him, then he is not a complete fool.

Yu Ziqing found a very young face, which must have turned into a white water egg not long ago. It may be the last batch of white water eggs.

Touching the center of his eyebrows and trying to peek into the past that he carried, all he found was confusion and confusion.

There are only some strong emotions inside.

After thinking for a moment, Yu Ziqing closed the golden book, sealed it again, and left the Book of Anshi.

When I came out here, I saw that An Shizhi seemed to be a little angry, and closed the book with a bang.

"I have been forced to start cultivating with the help of the Divine Dynasty. Don't you think the situation has become serious enough that I have no time to pay attention to you?"

Yu Ziqing sighed earnestly.

The Book of Anshi was immediately opened and flipped through.

"Just stay well, I'll remember this."

Leaving Jinlan Mountain, Yu Ziqing went to find Chuan Chuan who was retiring at the health club.

"Let me ask you something, how did you weave the memory armor?"

"Huh?" Wheel Wheel was startled, and the stickmen hurriedly came over: "You must not do this, we have no choice but to do it. You are a living person. Doing this will disrupt the smooth memory."

"Then let me put it another way. I got the faces and pasts of some white water eggs from the hands of the man in the void. I want to see the past attached to those faces. Is there any way?"

"Once upon a time was more than just a memory."

"I just want to peek into it like a memory armor, that's all."

"Oh, that's a little easier. You could peek before. Just look at our memory armor. Just look at this." The stickman said casually.

"Huh? Didn't you take the initiative to show it before?" Yu Ziqing was a little confused.

"Yes, but if we take the initiative to show it, no one can peep." The stickman was even more confused than Yu Ziqing.

Yu Ziqing stared at each other with the Wheel and Stickman. After a long while, everyone suddenly realized that there was a big problem here.

Yu Ziqing felt that since the other party took the initiative to show off, it was natural for him to peep.

The other party also felt that Yu Ziqing had the ability to peek, so it was natural for them to take the initiative to show it.

Yu Ziqing rubbed his head with a headache.

Someone lifts the curtain and he can see the painting inside. Isn't this normal?

Everything was so natural. He never thought that the very thing of "being able to see" was special.

He closed his eyes and thought, the memory armor was the past of these guys, and he really had such a magical power that he could peek into the past.

moonlight.

After Yu Ziqing said this, he asked again.

"Can I peek into the past without using my magical powers?"

"Supernatural power is the name of your human race. For us, we don't deliberately separate it. We already have it.

It's like...well, you don't regard instinctive chewing as a magical power.

Besides, don’t human monks also count magical powers and secret arts separately? "

The stickman tried very hard to explain.

Yu Ziqing was stunned. Oh my god, is this how the supernatural power was explained? Is this how these former gods viewed supernatural powers?

Among monks, the mainstream view is that the magical power of physical cultivation is a skill or secret technique that can be controlled like instinct.

After all, many magical powers and secret techniques have similar effects.

Calling names is only used to distinguish the process of cultivation.

Therefore, at the beginning, magical powers and secret arts were not only different in name, but also did not look at the effects at all, but only looked at their fundamental differences?

In this hellish world, how much inconspicuous but crucial information is there that has been obliterated by the long years.

Hell, even the explanation of the name can be tampered with to look like this.

Several times, this kind of tampering has occurred in unexpected but easily overlooked places.

Yu Ziqing's mentality exploded.

Now he has the feeling that everything he looks at has been tampered with.

I even wonder if the evolution of words and runes is a process of natural evolution and adaptation to contemporary times, with some tampering secretly added.

Even though the explanation is slightly different, it looks the same when you use it and when you awaken.

But over time, when this understanding becomes correct and deeply ingrained, everyone may awaken to magical powers only within a predetermined range.

As time goes by, magical powers will slowly disappear from the records, and the scope for people to awaken to magical powers will become smaller and smaller.

After all, the matter of awakening supernatural powers is directly related to the monk's cognition.

Yu Ziqing had a headache and got into the secret room, ready to give it a try.

Opening the golden book, he found a face that was still alive, and silently activated the moonlight magical power. Even if he was not under the moonlight, his eyes turned moonwhite and glowed.

When I peeked at the past of this face again, those chaotic fogs began to change automatically. The fogs formed a picture. After continuous layering, they turned into memories of the past.

A very ordinary white water egg, a member of a small family, was accused of offending Dongchang back then, and it might bring harm to the family, so he had no choice but to die to save the family from being implicated. .

Then the white water egg found him and asked him to turn into a white water egg.

Because this guy has pretty good talents, especially in formations, Bai Shui Dan invested in him.

Yu Ziqing recalled the list given by the new No. 5. In the current Baishuidan organization, there is indeed such a Baishuidan with good talent in formation. His strength is about six or seven levels, but his ability to go out and do things is a bit lacking, so he has been staying at the station. Raised inside.

After three experiments in a row, there were no major problems. Yu Ziqing just looked at them one after another.

There are very few casual cultivators among these white water eggs, and they all have a backstory. The few casual cultivators are also invested by white water eggs because they have some kind of talent.

There are various reasons why they turned into white water eggs. Some of them offended people, some committed crimes, and some were attracted by white water eggs and deliberately tricked them.

Even if it is just these white water eggs that are still alive today, the forces involved, large and small, cover almost all parts of the Three Gods Dynasty.

No wonder the Bai Shui Dan organization was so crazy before. There were so many places where it could draw on its strength.

If the information that had been kept at the bottom had not been almost destroyed after several changes, the original top-level white water eggs would have been ruined, and the current white water egg organizations could also go crazy.

Yu Ziqing recorded the origins of these living white-water eggs, which will be useful in the future.

But he is not going to follow the old way of the White Water Egg Organization. If he relies on control, he will suffer backlash.

By the time all the ordinary white water eggs have been peeped at, the record is almost done.

Only then did Yu Ziqing turn to the page about the new emperor.

He stretched out a hand and placed it between the eyebrows of this face. Moonlight shone in his eyes, and intense emotional fluctuations came first.

The churning fog slowly gathered like an ink painting and became clearer.

Since birth, the protagonist of this memory has never seen his biological mother again, and is taken care of by a wet nurse.

Everything every day is recorded in detail.

From the age of three, he faces a lot of teachers every day, teaching him various things, or in other words, instilling various things into him.

From words to etiquette, to practice, to concepts...

After being rolled up to the point of death, he was so depressed that he couldn't even breathe. Only after he had rolled up other princes could he proceed to the next step.

All of this seems to be nothing special, just the life of a relatively strict and repressed royal prince.

until one day.

In the stern palace, bright lights illuminated the main hall. A child with a fearful face saluted solemnly, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed respectfully.

"My son, I bow to my father."

Under the bright light, Lao Qianhuang, whose face could not be seen clearly, sat there with a cold tone.

"How about making you the prince?"

"My son...my son..."

"louder please."

"My son... don't dare..." The child was about to cry and shouted at the top of his lungs.

Lao Qianhuang just watched quietly. When the child was covered in cold sweat and his knees began to hurt, he said slowly.

"You are the most suitable to be the prince, but if you want to be the prince, you have to pay the price.

It's not that easy to be this emperor.

Among so many sons, you are not the one with the best talent, but you are the most suitable.

To achieve great things, there are always sacrifices.

My prince, you remember.

If you can't bear it, it proves that you are not the material.

You will also follow in the footsteps of your brothers. "

The child was ignorant, but he understood the four words "my prince" and his brothers.

He had only occasionally heard of his brothers who had died young.

He didn't dare to refuse, so he could only kowtow and thank him.

Then a few days later, an old chamberlain beside Emperor Qian led the prince to leave the palace.

The prince didn't know what happened, but after a while, he fainted and woke up again to see a man wearing a metal mask.

I saw the altar and various knives neatly arranged on a table.

He was guided to learn about sacrifice and learn some things.

Until one day, the sacrifice really began.

A guy wearing a metal mask, smiling evilly and a little cruelly, came to him with a knife in his hand.

"Your Highness, you must withstand it. If you can't, or if you make a mistake, you will die.

I don't mind if you fail and skin Daqian's prince with your own hands, but it's a rare experience and I want to do it more times. "

The prince was naked and restrained. His consciousness was very clear. While he was awake, his entire face was peeled off bit by bit, and then all the skin on his body was peeled off.

Heart-rending screams resounded through this strange altar.

The prince was a little confused and didn't know how he could persevere.

He didn't faint from the beginning to the end, he didn't dare, he knew that he would really die if he fainted.

After an unknown amount of time, a large amount of elixir was applied to the prince's body. New skin began to grow on top of the bloody flesh, and his face, as well as the skin that had been peeled off, began to condense and shrink.

This means that the sacrifice can be said to have been successful.

Before he passed out completely, he saw that the masked man who was in charge of skinning was slapped in the chest by the old chamberlain, and his whole body was turned into powder under a ball of flames.

The old chamberlain, who had always had a gloomy face, also showed a trace of standardized respect on his face, and he slowly saluted the prince.

"Your Highness, this old slave arrived too late to save me, which made Your Highness suffer.

Your Highness must not leave the palace casually again in the future, there are many bad people outside.

The old slave will welcome His Highness back to the palace.

From today on, His Highness is the Crown Prince. "

The scene ends abruptly here.

Yu Ziqing blinked his eyes and raised his head in a daze.

He really thought too much, how could there be a scene of a loving father and a filial son.

If it were true that the father was kind and the son was filial, the prince would not have turned into a white-water egg and lost his past.

However, the situation was even more chilling than expected.

Lao Qianhuang, I don’t know what he wants to do, but the prince back then was not the first one.

It's just that none of the princes in front of them survived the torture-like sacrificial process, and they all died.

This guy has a heart of stone, which is to underestimate him.

Yu Ziqing felt that if he returned this translucent face to the new Emperor Qian, the already crazy Emperor Xin Qian would probably explode on the spot.

Wait, wait for now, now is not the time.

Yu Ziqing put away the golden book and rubbed his head. Seeing this kind of thing too much made him feel uncomfortable.

Especially since he is Dui Huang now, he feels even more uncomfortable when he sees this.

He recalled the scene of the sacrifice and wrote it down. He went back to chat with New No. 5 to see what was special about that kind of sacrifice.

There must be an extremely important reason why Emperor Lao Qian went to such great lengths to do this even though he would rather kill several princes.

So what is his purpose? Is it just to establish contact with the Cliff God King?

Certainly not.

The next day, Yu Ziqing summoned Xin No. 10 and asked him to come to the health club.

When the new No. 10 arrived, Yu Ziqing got straight to the point.

"If you come see me later, you don't need to wear a mask. I have taken back your face and your past."

New No. 10 was slightly shaken, and his voice was trembling.

"Sir, is it really...really?"

"Really, it's not just yours, I've also got other people's, but I'm not sure if there are any pitfalls in it. It's up to you how you choose."

"I am willing to give it a try. I will have no regrets. If something goes wrong with me, someone will take my place. Please don't hesitate and just kill me."

New No. 10 knelt on the ground without any hesitation.

Having said this, Yu Ziqing had no reason to refuse.

He opened the golden book and saw a middle-aged face flying out and submerging into the face of New No. 5.

He knelt down on the spot, once returning, his body trembling continuously.

Yu Ziqing sighed secretly, that face was not a good memory.
