Lord of Deception

Lao Yang has long wanted to find a demon as research material. If Zi Zaitian hadn't been so quick to hug him and his real name had been revealed, would Lao Yang have let Zi Zai Tian off?

Just knowing the true name and directly killing the demon with the true name curse is meaningless, and the research value has plummeted.

Lao Yang's booklet to be studied contains research on demons.

It's just that he has never found a demon whose real name is uncertain, and he really has no material.

The Demon's True Name Curse didn't become what it is now as soon as it came out. It was also constantly iterative and updated before it evolved to what it is now.

If it can be updated, a lot of experiments must be done and progress made in practice.

The price, of course, is that the demons who were once active in this world are becoming increasingly rare. Until now, the demon's true name curse has been put on the shelf.

Because it won't be used for a long time.

From the time Lao Yang started practicing Taoism, to this day, Lao Yang has no chance to do research on demons.

Now that we have a chance, how can we forget about it?

He was really worried that the demon he caught was as aware of current affairs as Zizaitian, so he directly offered his real name to scrap his research plan.

Not having a real name, that's great, a lot of research can be done.

Every time I walked on the road, I could pick up some research materials, and Lao Yang felt much better.

I had never seen it before when I came to the abyss, but now the demons are possessed by the black sky demon. This kind of thing is considered to be the lowest level among demons. The demon is quite degenerate.

Lao Yang estimated that the Demon King was back, and the demons were beginning to become active.

It may be that the demons were unable to bypass the large number of hungry ghosts guarding the abyss rift valley and appeared in the world, so they could only possess a black sky demon to hang around.

This might be the demon king hiding somewhere who wants to cause trouble.

Well, let me tell Yu Ziqing first.

The old sheep looked around, manifested into the size of a normal person, and landed in a mountain col. After looking around, he closed his eyes and entered the ring on the seventh floor.

It was rare for Lao Yang to take the initiative to call, so Yu Ziqing responded immediately.

When I walked up and took a look, I saw Lao Yang sitting there calmly, just setting up a low table to make tea.

Yu Ziqing hurriedly walked upstairs, looked up and down, and felt something was wrong. He slowed down and sat in his seat.

"What kind of fun are you doing?"

Lao Yang was too lazy to act. The last time he acted with Yu Ziqing, he used too much force without realizing it. After Yu Ziqing saw through it, he got angry.

"On the way to the abyss, I found a demon possessing the demon Krishna."

Yu Ziqing frowned, a little in disbelief.

"When did the demon become so depraved? How could he actually fall in love with the black demon?"

"I don't know, maybe it's because the Abyss Rift is sealed and no one can enter or exit it. No one has gone down to the Abyss for many years."

"No one has gone down to the abyss for a long time. In the beginning, no one stopped them. There were still people going down into the abyss to hunt monsters and see if they could find any abyss specialties.

Later, the hungry ghosts fought with the demons, and no one left.

Later, the hungry ghosts brought disaster to all the demons within a thousand miles of the abyss, centered on the rift valley.

Then no one would go down.

After a lot of effort and effort, what I finally got was something that could be bought for just a few dozen pieces of spiritual jade in Bushi Town.

Now the weak don't want to go, the strong don't want to go, there are demons over there and they can't find the monks, how normal it is.

However, the fact that this demon has fallen to possessing a demon they looked down upon before was a bit unexpected.

By the way, did you kill that demon? "

"That's not true. I don't know its true name, and the Heavenly Demon's True Name Curse can't kill it. It just so happens that I lack this kind of Heavenly Demon as material."

"Is this what you always tell me?"

"I would like to remind you that the demon is too hidden. If it is not discovered in advance, it will cause big trouble.

Especially since the Demon King is hiding in the abyss, and he hasn't been found yet.

I feel like I can meet a demon every time I pass by. The number of demons in the abyss must have exceeded expectations.

You'd better make some preparations in advance. Just because you are not afraid does not mean that others are not afraid. "

Lao Yang was afraid that Yu Ziqing would be careless, so he said it very seriously.

"I understand. Next, I will ask Lou Huai and Zi Zaitian to patrol. It will be difficult for the monks to detect them, but these demons will not guard against the demons. Zi Zaitian can still easily detect the existence of the demons."

"..." Lao Yang was speechless.

All races are prone to being raped and doing bad things. Look, even demons can't avoid it.

After a few breaths of silence, Yu Ziqing looked at Lao Yang still sitting calmly, and then his thoughts changed.

"The things that need to be explained have been explained. You can always tell me, what are you doing?"

"What are you anxious about? Wait, what are you anxious about? Where have you learned recently? Have you finished studying the book list given to you?"

"I have only learned three trades, and it will probably take me more than ten years to master them." Yu Ziqing told the truth. He did find it difficult, and then changed the topic: "What are you doing?"

"Fishing." Lao Yang replied: "Which three lines of work?"

"Wonderful scenery talismans, wave-like Dao patterns, and overlapping formations."

When Lao Yang heard this, he immediately asked a casual question and began to take the postgraduate examination for Yu Ziqing.

But as I listened, I felt that something was not quite right.

He thought that Yu Ziqing was just getting started, but he didn't expect that he had mastered it well enough to apply for a job as a master in a big business.

Are you really ready to fully master it?

Just to learn a secret method transformed from magical powers, there is really no need to go to this level.

If you master all similar series to the point of complete mastery, it is basically a level below the head of a certain specialty.

But Lao Yang couldn't say that it was wrong of you to do this. It was rare that Yu Zi had his heart cleared up and worked so hard.

"Are you still asking? I have only learned three trades, and I have just started to learn the rest. You keep telling me, what kind of fish are you fishing for?"

"Let's catch the Heavenly Demon. Let's test our judgment and see if we can get two more materials. One Heavenly Demon is not enough."

"..."

Yu Ziqing understood instantly. No wonder Lao Yang didn't look anxious at all.

But think about it, if there really is a demon who wants to possess the old sheep, it will be very miserable, 80% worse than possessing him.

If you possess him, he will probably die after asking questions.

If you possess an old sheep, you will most likely become a research material.

What an incredible devil to possess a trinity of ruthless characters like Lao Yang.

If you stand there without resisting and allow the demon to possess you, the demon probably won't be able to succeed.

Lao Yang was not in a hurry, and Yu Ziqing was even less anxious. He took this opportunity to ask Lao Yang for advice. He took out all the doubts and ideas he had learned over the years and asked Lao Yang for advice.

By the way, I would like to ask Lao Yang again, what is the order in which the book list should be studied.

When he learned it before, he always felt it was a bit difficult, and sometimes he had to learn other things as a prerequisite.

If it weren't for that magical power, before a bunch of prerequisites and a bunch of prerequisites, he would have wanted to give up.

Yu Ziqing was studying in the ring on the seventh floor, and outside, there was only a casual protection around Lao Yang, and his true body was sitting inside with his eyes closed.

Seven days passed like this without moving.

Occasionally, monsters would appear nearby, but no trace of Lao Yang could be found.

He was hundreds of thousands of miles away, and the Demon King's true body could not come out. He was well hidden. Although the connection with the previous clone was cut off, and he was afraid that people would catch up to his location, he could still feel that the clone was not there. die.

He was startled when he felt the terrible spell. He found that the clone had not died for several days, and he had some ideas.

As soon as he had an idea, the clone closest to the captured clone was not possessed. Instead, he turned invisible in the form of a demon and quietly approached there.

After searching for a long time, I finally felt the aura of a living creature that was obviously different from the demon from a place thousands of miles away.

Although it is covered, the demon perceives things differently from the demon.

The clone quietly approached the mountain col and saw nothing, but felt the presence of creatures.

A wisp of black air clung to the surface and quickly found the place of protection.

The black air continued to escape, slowly disappearing until it was completely invisible. The black air slowly penetrated through the ground at the thinnest and slowest speed, little by little, without destroying the protection.

After spending a full stick of incense, the wisp of black energy began to gather inside the protection and slowly gathered under the old sheep.

Still silently, it slowly penetrated from under the old sheep into the old sheep's body.

The first thing the clone felt was a bottomless pool, followed closely by the calm pool, and after a slight stir, he finally felt it.

It was suppressed to the extreme, without any fluctuation, and the extremely terrifying evil spirit and curse aura.

However, Black Qi's way back has been silently blocked, and there is no way back in all directions.

It was as if the person in front of him was not a person at all, not even a person.

In the distance, the Demon King felt that he had lost control of a clone. At this moment, he cautiously cut off the connection with the clone without any hesitation.

He didn't dare to take the initiative to sense what happened to the clone, for fear of leaving traces.

A human monk who knew the Heavenly Demon's True Name Curse was a very strong monk. He was invaded by the Heavenly Demon and was able to forcibly suppress the Heavenly Demon. He was definitely one of the top experts in the contemporary human race.

The Demon King carefully sensed that this person must not be able to kill the Demon, and this time he has been able to invade at close range. Try again...

…

In the ring on the seventh floor, Lao Yang chuckled lightly after explaining a problem to Yu Ziqing.

“There really is a demon coming, it seems my judgment was right.

Since the return of the Heavenly Demon King, the number of Heavenly Demons in the abyss has begun to increase.

I don’t know if it was something that had been hidden before, or if it was brought by the Demon King.

Oh, this demon is beginning to possess me.

Okay, now that it's trapped in the body, let's move on. "

"..." Yu Ziqing's eyelids twitched, it really happened.

"You've already killed two demons, and you're still going on? Do you want to continue fishing? Will there be demons coming?"

"Just give it a try, it's not a waste of time anyway.

The first one was directly captured alive by me, and the second one successfully invaded my body.

I'm at the end of my rope. "

"Okay..." Yu Ziqing sighed. It didn't matter to him anyway. Lao Yang was willing to spend time teaching himself, so of course he was happy to learn.

A few days later, a new clone of the Demon King quietly approached here again.

Following the same pattern, the silent corrosion protection penetrated from the ground and penetrated the old sheep's body.

But this time, when the erosion was halfway through, demonic energy began to ooze from Lao Yang's body, as if he was about to be possessed by a demon.

The erosion clone also sensed resistance.

Seeing that there is no way to infiltrate quietly, the person is almost possessed, as if he is at the end of a crossbow, and he can suddenly feel the clone number two, inside this person's body. The new clone number three will not hesitate, and immediately stops pretending, Directly forcefully penetrate inside.

After a difficult infiltration, he finally penetrated in and reunited with the clone number two.

At this moment, Clone No. 3 was also out of the control of the Demon King. Apart from being able to sense that Clone No. 3 was not dead, he could not sense anything else.

In the ring on the seventh floor, Lao Yang smiled and stretched out a finger.

"Here comes another good day. This rare consumable is delivered to your door by yourself. I have never experienced this in my life, three of them."

"Still waiting?"

"Keep looking."

Lao Yang became addicted to fishing, so Yu Ziqing continued to take classes.

This time I waited for a full month, but found nothing. No new demon appeared.

The old sheep sighed.

"Okay, the research is over, there won't be any new ones."

"Three times, no matter how stupid you are, you know this is a trap."

"The first one, I'm not sure about anything, I just caught a demon.

The second one came just to give it a try. I can be very sure that the second demon would have absolutely no chance of spreading the news.

The third one also came, and even found my location accurately. When passing through the protection, it took less time.

Moreover, I sold some flaws and gave some opportunities, and the third one was infiltrating like crazy.

It is certain that the third one has no idea what happened to the second one.

I can also be very sure that after the third one infiltrated, no news came out.

Even if the third person can spread the news, it will be news that I have reached the end of my strength and am half obsessed.

But after a month, the fourth one never came. "

Lao Yang listed the current conditions one by one, and then looked at Yu Ziqing.

Yu Ziqing was originally enjoying watching Lao Yang fishing. He was happy that Lao Yang came to teach in person. He learned much faster than he could on his own. At least the direction was clear and the progress was rapid.

After listening to Lao Yang's words, Yu Ziqing couldn't help but frown slightly and began to think deeply.

"These demons have special ways of transmitting information, and they can hide it from you.

At the very least, if I am sealed inside your body, at least there will be other demons who know that the demon in front of me is not dead. "

"Yes, I didn't realize what method these demons used to pass on the news, but they already knew some information before they came, otherwise they wouldn't come."

"They might even know they were fooled..." Yu Ziqing recalled.

"Just wait a minute, I'll be back as soon as I can."

Yu Ziqing left the ring on the seventh floor, waved his hand, threw out a secret room formation, and then stamped his foot.

"Zi Zaitian, come out and ask you something."

Zi Zaitian and Lou Huai appeared together.

After Yu Ziqing asked for a moment, he closed his eyes and entered the seventh floor ring again.

“I’ve asked, it’s true that there is indeed mutual induction between demons.

But among the demons, it is absolutely impossible for any information other than life and death to be spread under such circumstances.

Moreover, it definitely did not come from the demon sealed in your old body.

But it was sensed by the demon later. "

"What do you think?" Lao Yang looked a little strange.

"The way you performed back then seems to be just a little bit off.

But no demon has ever been fooled again. This is the biggest flaw.

There is only one situation that meets all the conditions and answers our doubts.

That is, these demons are all one.

They are all clones of the same demon. "

Lao Yang said cheerfully with a smile on his face.

"If I remember correctly, the demon can be divided into two.

But after differentiation, unless they merge into one again, they become independent individuals.

Right? "

Yu Ziqing also smiled and nodded.

“Yes, that’s how it is in Zi Zi Tian.

After differentiation, there are two independent demons, with no priority.

However, there is one demon who is an exception.

The individuals he differentiated are all clones, and they are all controlled by the original body.

But if the main body takes the initiative to cut off the connection with the clone, what happens to the clone has nothing to do with the main body.

The clone at this time is like an independent demon transformed into an ordinary demon after its differentiation. "

"Hahahaha..." Lao Yang couldn't help laughing.

"Originally I just wanted to catch two experimental materials, but I didn't expect to catch the clone of the Demon King. No wonder..."

"I have been wondering before, there seems to be no demon in the abyss.

When the Demon King came out, all his men were killed by the furious tiger.

The Demon King is still hiding like a coward. How come so many Demons have appeared in just a few years?

I thought about how when the Demon King escaped, he immediately divided into thousands and fled.

I started to make some guesses, and after asking Zi Zaitian about something, I became more certain.

What you caught while fishing must be the clone of the Demon King.

How could there be so many demons in the abyss at this time? "

"It must be, it can't be wrong. This guy was very cautious and cut off contact immediately. No wonder I didn't notice anything. I just thought it shouldn't be like this."

"If he knew he was fooled, he would definitely not send his clone to die."

"This is the best experimental material, the Demon King's clone." There was a hint of expectation in Lao Yang's tone.

"Better make sure."

"How to confirm?"

"Where are you always? Wait for me. I'll bring Zi Zaitian over. Let Zi Zaitian devour one of them, and you'll know if it's a clone of the Demon King."

"I managed to catch three..." Lao Yang was a little unhappy.

"If you don't confirm your identity, how will you do research later? There's a big difference between whether it's an ordinary demon or a clone of the demon king. You can't do research without confirming the experimental materials first, right?"

"Okay, then come here..." Lao Yang thought for a while and nodded.

Anyway, he has three, so losing one is acceptable.

Yu Ziqing happily agreed and prepared to set off. He felt a new path.
