Volume 9: Star Cave Chapter 87: Freebie!
"You see, everyone in the world is like this. They cannot see through the illusion and are obsessed with appearances." A holy spirit came behind Dongshan Shi and spoke slowly.
"Therefore, only by maintaining a detached attitude, grasping one's own eternal and unchanging heart, and enjoying the tranquility of Nirvana can one escape from the troubles of this world."
"All external appearances are false, so they should not linger in the mind." The Holy Spirit taught him the experience of those who had experienced it.
"But I brought all of this to them." Dong Shanshi paused for a moment and then said, "The Stone Heart Church that I spread has intensified all of this."
"Originally, people were still able to live in this world, but now, the people of this land have no desire to live, and even their survival is only due to some restrictions of doctrine."
“It all started with me.”
"Is there any difference between dying at your hands and dying at the hands of the abyss?" asked the Holy Spirit.
"There is no difference, because they are all external appearances." The words of the Holy Spirit seem to be rich in extraordinary philosophy.
He seemed to have seen through all the external appearances in the world. It seemed that all the troubles could not stir up any splashes in his heart, not even the slightest ripple.
"This is how worldly things are. Even if they continue to live for hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years, nothing will be different. Their hearts will remain the same."
"Because they came here in the same way hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of years ago."
"Are we the same in the same situation? Our hearts remain so cold for tens of thousands, thousands, or hundreds of years?" Dongshan Shi suddenly asked, leaving the Holy Spirit slightly stunned.
But then, the Holy Spirit smiled and said, "It's not indifference, but another kind of silence that is free from disturbances."
"You will gradually understand this kind of thing if you see it more often." The Holy Spirit's voice was still gentle: " It's always like this!"
Dongshan Shi turned his head and looked at everything outside. He actually understood everything.
But why should a complicated and inefficient mind be considered false?
Although their minds are inefficient, their desire for a better life and their pursuit of a better world are not false.
"So is Linjie right? Pursuing spiritual change?" Dongshan Shi thought, then smiled and shook his head. Linjie was even more wrong.
Using various means to induce the distortion of the mind and produce the thoughts they need, in his opinion, the essence is actually no different from the sanctuary.
"In their eyes, the souls of ordinary people can only be used as food."
“They never took it seriously.”
“That’s why there is this last step.” Dong Shanshi thought: “Purify this world.”
This small abyss dimension has always been under the control of the abyss. Other demon lords, virtual entities blessed by the will of the abyss, can control some authority in this dimension.
The current situation is only because the Holy Spirit launched a surprise attack, piercing the protective layer with the light of the Holy Land, and then caused Critical and the herd to follow up, thus temporarily cutting off the Abyss' control over this layer of the small abyss.
After all, they are fighting in a different place. As long as the abyss breaks the interference, the demons in other layers of the abyss will hear the noise, break through the obstacles and swarm in.
By then, even great lords or demon princes might appear. In that case, they must escape before that, otherwise even a group of holy spirits might die.
Whatever you say about the eternity of the soul, when facing a high-level demon, it is very likely that your soul will be polluted and you will die.
At that time, this layer of abyss may change from an opposition layer to an ordinary abyss layer, and the damage to this layer of abyss will not be too great.
It is even possible that demons from other levels come to join in the fun and stay here, causing the strength of this level of the abyss to increase significantly.
What disappeared were only their stone man clan.
Therefore, the Holy Spirits must have done something before this.
“People’s souls have the first driving force.”
"You and your people, your primary driving force all comes from the abyss."
“It’s just that this driving force is hidden because of the opposing layers.”
"Once they completely let go of their mental shackles and release their own desires, they can quickly transform into demons."
"You and the devil are actually just one change away from each other."
"So your souls are essentially the same as the souls of demons. Collect their souls as soon as possible. It will be a good thing if their souls return to the Holy Land and become our cornerstone."
"There isn't enough time."
The Holy Spirit warned Dong Shanshi, comforting his soul, and also advised him earnestly: "Critical and Beast Groups are more likely to make them completely sink into becoming demons or beasts."
"You also need to be more careful and guard against these two parties, and don't let them take advantage of you."
"I understand!" Dongshanshi nodded, and continued to overlook everything.
Then he seemed to be aware of something vaguely and raised his head to look into the distance.
"Sure enough, my current strength is still not enough." A large amount of abyss power was surging throughout Lu Bai's body, pushing him to a higher position.
At the same time, he could feel that something was sweeping towards him.
As things stand now, the Abyss is unable to break the limitations of the Star Cave.
After all, this limitation is caused by the mutual restrictions of various real dimensions.
Therefore, what is gathered here is only the will of the abyss at this level.
"Fortunately, the problem did not turn into the worst case scenario." Lu Bai guessed.
During the three-way melee, Lu Bai was gradually forced into a desperate situation.
This is how the battlefield is. There are too many chaotic factors. He is not even a lower-level demon.
Even if one is extremely aware, there is no way to guarantee one's absolute safety in such a chaotic scene.
Especially when the danger comes from a mad upper demon on one's side.
This superior demon should be one of the individuals that were ripened by the secret medicine . After killing a critical demon, it went completely crazy.
He madly killed every living creature he could see, and then sucked their flesh and blood without hesitation.
No matter how Lu Bai ran, or how he attracted other critical creatures or holy realm spirits, he could not stop this superior demon from killing people.
In terms of speed alone, Lu Bai has already assessed that he has no way of escaping the opponent's hunting range, nor can he avoid the opponent's perception.
If this continues, death is the only thing waiting for him.
Therefore, Lu Bai had no choice but to upgrade on the spot.
There is flesh and blood everywhere around, so there is no need to worry about lack of resources.
This is also why demons are keen on bloody battles.
In battle, everything can become the cornerstone for one's promotion.
The arrival of this layer of abyss will attracted the attention of many people.
This is also the reason why Lu Bai is reluctant to be promoted. It is too conspicuous.
Not every demon, when promoted to a lower level, can attract the will of the abyss.
Therefore, there are many wild demons. They do not have the organization of the abyss and their strength is much weaker.
Not every demon that attracts the Will of the Abyss can cause the Will of the Abyss to take large-scale action.
Usually the will of the abyss would just drop a ray of attention, leave a mark, and that's it.
The commotion caused by Lu Bai's promotion nowadays is not as big as that caused by most demons being promoted to higher-level demons.
People who are not aware of the situation might even think that it was some demon lord who was crowned!
This change certainly frightened the upper demon who almost killed Lu Bai, but it also made Lu Bai fall into the eyes of the three parties.
Even the demon lord on the demon side was very interested in Lu Bai. He wanted to capture Lu Bai and swallow him in one gulp to see if he could increase the favor of the abyss to himself.
In other words, this approach is nothing more than drinking poison to quench thirst.
Lu Bai naturally guessed this.
Then all the energy and blood in his body were stimulated at this moment, and then the scales on his body ignited blood-red flames at this moment.
It is clearly a demon, but it has the color of a dragon.
The beasts that had nothing to do with this war seemed to become interested at this moment, and the roar of wild beasts could be heard nearby.
At the same time, Lu Bai's own level increased rapidly. At the moment when the will of the abyss fell, the aura of the holy land strangely appeared on Lu Bai's body.
Although this breath was not much, it accurately cut off the connection between the falling abyss will and this layer of abyss will.
This stunned the group of spirits and the holy spirits who were observing this scene behind them.
Then, everyone went crazy. A light appeared in the sky and then surged towards this side.
At the same time, the entire abyss became extremely turbulent at this moment, and various forces were constantly in turmoil.
The outer critical zone, the sanctuary, and even the blockade of the beast herd were almost broken because of this.
The will of the abyss was taken for free!
Lu Bai's level increased rapidly, directly surpassing the middle-level demon to reach the upper-level demon, and went straight to the lord-level demon, but was suppressed by Lu Bai.
If he really became a lord-level demon, he would probably have to connect to the abyss again to obtain the virtual godhood bestowed by the will of the abyss.
He was not ready yet, so he could not get the virtual godhood for free.
Besides, there is not much benefit in obtaining the virtual godhood for free.
The core of this layer of the abyss is actually still in the will of the abyss. The virtual godhead is actually just a temporary verification code. Once it is cut off or changed by the other party, the virtual godhead is nothing more than some abyss power with special frequency and structure.
Moreover, for the upper demons with surface-level power, although it is a little difficult to win the current battle, it is not difficult to protect themselves.
The first to take action were the demon lords, and there were more than one demon lord.
Lu Bai's behavior undoubtedly angered the will of the abyss, and the most important job of the demon lord is actually to please the will of the abyss.
In the abyss, as long as you can please the will of the abyss, there is even a possibility of rising to heaven overnight, growing from a little devil into a demon prince in an instant.
Next came the Holy Spirits, whose plans were almost ruined by Lu Bai in this way.
Lu Bai got something for free and they took the blame.
And, the thief who stole the power of the sanctuary must die!!
