Chapter 333: Evil Path

Latest URL: www.mhtxs.cc

Mr. Zhuang detected the changes in the Heavenly Dao, but Mo Hua was completely unaware at this time.

He found a hidden clump of grass at the cave entrance, cast a hidden technique, and concealed himself inside.

Even Foundation Building cultivators would not be able to discover him.

Mo Hua was somewhat worried about Elder Yu and the others, but he stared at the cave entrance for a long time, and there was no movement inside.

"There are no demon beasts inside this nest?"

Mo Hua was a little puzzled.

When he used his divine sense to perceive, he discovered that the demon qi inside this nest was very faint, the aura was stifling, not like there were demon beasts residing there.

Or perhaps, there was a second-grade demon beast living here once, but it has already left, otherwise the demon qi inside would not be so faint.

What was the second-grade demon beast that lived in this place before?

Mo Hua frowned and thought for a moment, then was suddenly startled, and silently said in his heart:

"It couldn't be that pig, could it..."

Qian family old ancestor wanted to refine the Transfer Life Transform Origin Pill, and refining an evil pill requires an evil array. If the evil array is to be effective, it needs blood and flesh as the array medium.

The blood and flesh used as the array medium would be either human or demon.

The Transfer Life Transform Origin Pill is difficult to refine and takes an extremely long time. Human blood qi is insufficient to support such a long refining process.

Moreover, refining this kind of pill still requires continuously using humans as medicinal materials.

Qian family old ancestor couldn't possibly force people to eat humans.

So the most suitable candidate for a pill furnace is a second-grade demon beast.

Demon beasts eat humans, their blood qi is abundant, and their lifespan is long. They are indeed most suitable to be the pill furnace for the Transfer Life Transform Origin Pill.

Mo Hua gradually had some guesses.

This nest is perhaps that pig's nest.

The fact that it fell into Qian family old ancestor's hands is probably because it suffered heavy injuries, allowing Qian family old ancestor to get a bargain.

Qian family old ancestor then usurped the nest and used it as his secret pill room.

Even if a second-grade demon beast is heavily injured, it is not something that Qian family old ancestor can handle alone. The one who subdued this pig demon with him was probably also the Qian family's great elder.

During the process of subduing the pig demon, the Qian family great elder had one arm eaten by the pig demon and suffered heavy injuries to his body, and originally should not have lived long.

But with the Human Life Pill, it is different.

The Human Life Pill uses human life as a medicinal guide, which can both supplement blood qi and extend life.

But if the Qian family great elder took the Human Life Pill and recovered from his injuries, he would instead be suspected by others.

Qian family old ancestor simply let the great elder fake his death, cover people's eyes, secretly hide in the deep mountains, help him build Black Mountain Stronghold, help him recruit evil cultivators, help him refine the Human Life Pill, and at the same time help him refine the Transfer Life Transform Origin Pill.

Although these are only Mo Hua's guesses, the facts are probably not much different.

Mo Hua sighed in his heart, "This Qian family old ancestor is truly meticulous in his thinking."

Mo Hua looked at the nest in front of him again, feeling more and more uneasy in his heart.

Qian family old ancestor has deep schemes, and what dangers has he set up in the depths of this nest?

It was already nightfall, the deep mountains were heavy with dew, and the mountain wind blew over, also bringing waves of chill.

Mo Hua couldn't help but shiver, yet suddenly heard a trace of wind sound.

Mo Hua was slightly startled, and listened carefully, discovering that this sound was transmitted from the cave.

It was the echo of the wind.

Mo Hua's eyelids involuntarily twitched.

This nest is so deep, how could there be an echo when the mountain wind blows over?

Mo Hua, in his hidden form, carefully walked into the nest, listened to the sound to discern the position, and finally discovered that there was actually a not-small crack on the wall near the cave entrance.

Mo Hua reached out and touched the wall, and the earth and stone of the wall were all new, with faint wet qi.

He used a little force, and the earth and stone sank in.

Mo Hua was shocked in his heart.

This was a cave entrance, which someone had used earth and stone to seal up not long ago.

And there were no arrays around the cave entrance.

Mo Hua had previously focused all his attention on the arrays inside the nest, so he didn't notice at all that there was actually another cave entrance here.

Mo Hua was skilled in arrays, but precisely because of this, he was instead blinded by the arrays and neglected the places without arrays.

A good swimmer drowns, a good rider falls.

This is the darkness under the lamp...

Mo Hua sighed and took this as a warning in his heart, that he must pay more attention next time.

But what was this cave entrance for?

Qian family old ancestor couldn't possibly be hiding in this cave entrance, could he?

Mo Hua released his divine sense, only to feel that the aura behind the cave entrance was abnormally turbid, bloody, and sticky, and he couldn't distinguish what was inside at all.

What to do?

Mo Hua frowned and thought for a moment, but still decided to go in and see.

He would not go deep, only look at the cave entrance, and only take one glance.

If there was a special situation inside the cave, he would retreat and call for people.

If there was no special situation inside the cave, or if it was unrelated to Qian family old ancestor, he could still retreat and quietly slip away.

The crack in the cave entrance was quite large, and it was not sealed tightly. Mo Hua's body was small and exquisite, and he drilled in directly.

Behind the cave entrance was a dark descending stone staircase, and at the end of the stone staircase, a scarlet faint light was emitted.

Mo Hua was alert in his heart, feeling that something was wrong, but he still braced himself and went down the stone staircase.

He had not walked many steps when he heard harsh snoring sounds and an old speaking voice being transmitted.

These sounds and the thick blood qi seemed to be trapped in this space. He couldn't hear them from afar, but when he got closer, they were too noisy. He didn't know what method was used.

The stone staircase was narrow and deep, but not long. Mo Hua quickly reached the end.

To the right of the end of the stone staircase was a spacious stone room.

Mo Hua, in his hidden form, pressed his body tightly against the stone wall, poked out his small head, and like a dragonfly touching water, glanced at the stone room.

Subsequently, his heart felt cold, and cold sweat seeped out.

It was Qian family old ancestor!!

This old fellow, was he actually here?

Mo Hua calmed down, thought carefully, and then his mood became complex.

Encountering Qian family old ancestor had both good and bad aspects.

The good thing was that other people would not encounter Qian family old ancestor and would not meet danger.

The bad thing was that he encountered him...

Mo Hua sighed helplessly.

The array in the depths was only used to mislead.

Everyone thought that Qian family old ancestor must be hiding in the depths of the nest, but they didn't expect that he was actually hiding at the entrance of the nest!

This Qian family old ancestor indeed thinks differently from ordinary people, and his actions are fundamentally out of the ordinary!

He didn't know if Qian family old ancestor had discovered him?

Mo Hua's heart tightened slightly, then he discovered that there was no divine sense spying around, and Qian family old ancestor was just talking to someone, his tone and tune had not changed at all. This then put his heart at ease.

It seemed that his hidden technique had not been seen through.

Mo Hua secretly glanced again, and then discovered that the stone room was bloody and messy, filled with various evil and strange medicinal herbs, and containers with colorful grass juices.

In the center of the stone room, a pig was lying on the ground, emitting harsh snoring sounds.

Beside the pig were two cultivators, one was Qian family old ancestor, and the other was actually the Qian family's family head, Qian Hong!

Mo Hua was a little puzzled.

The Qian family was sealed, and all cultivators were not allowed to go out.

How could Qian Hong be here?

He was the Qian family's family head, although his real power was not great, he was still considered the person with the highest identity below Qian family old ancestor.

Wasn't the matter of Black Mountain Stronghold also related to him?

Mo Hua thought for a while, but didn't understand clearly.

But no matter why, it was better to slip away first.

This pig was still breathing, and the pill had not yet been refined.

Qian family old ancestor had not taken the pill, and was still a Foundation Building mid-stage, and was a Foundation Building mid-stage who had suffered heavy injuries to his body.

He would slip out first, release a signal, call people over, and everyone would take down Qian family old ancestor together.

The matter of Black Mountain Stronghold could be completely settled.

Mo Hua turned to leave, yet heard Qian family old ancestor sigh:

"Hong'er, my Qian family is not easy..."

Mo Hua secretly spat in his heart, "This old fellow is really shameless. Your Qian family is not easy, then are the poor loose cultivators in Tongxian City easy?"

But he still stopped in his tracks, wanting to know exactly what Qian family old ancestor wanted to say.

Among this, were there still secrets he didn't know?

After all, these evil arts and strange pill formulas are not something that normal cultivators can obtain.

Qian family old ancestor continued: "Do you know exactly what kind of world this is?"

The opposite Qian Hong did not answer.

Qian family old ancestor didn't seem to expect him to answer either, but said to himself:

"I have lived for over three hundred years, and only now do I understand a truth, that a cultivator's ability always has limits. To achieve great things, one must borrow the power of others and suck the blood of others."

"This world is survival of the fittest, big fish eat small fish, small fish eat dried shrimp."

"The cultivation world is also like this, loose cultivators are exploited by small families, small families are oppressed by medium families, and medium families are suppressed by upper families."

"In other words, loose cultivators raise small families, small families raise medium families, medium families raise upper families..."

"Fundamentally, they are all sucking the blood of loose cultivators."

"Dao Court changes, families rise and fall, sects alternate. The only constant is the loose cultivators at the bottom, forever at the bottom, forever being sucked blood, and forever receiving cold eyes and contempt."

"The prosperity of this cultivation world is built on the blood and tears of loose cultivators, but this prosperity has nothing to do with them."

"Therefore, never be a loose cultivator!"

"This is the truth I understood when I was still a loose cultivator."

"So I want to branch out and scatter leaves, establish a family, rely on the family, and achieve the great dao."

"But establishing a family doesn't work either. I have no spirit stones, no connections, and relying on myself alone, I fundamentally cannot build the Qian family."

"Relying solely on hunting demons, I wouldn't earn many spirit stones in a lifetime."

"Since that is the case, then I can only go kill and go rob."

"Even if the means at the beginning are dirty, as long as you succeed, someone will naturally whitewash for you, praise you, and also someone will rush forward for you, doing the work of dogs and horses."

"The Qian family was built up, and it gradually grew, but it still didn't work."

"The biggest interests in this world are all occupied by bigger families and sects. Small families like ours, even if we scrape another layer from loose cultivators, there isn't much oil and water."

"Family development is limited, my cultivation has stalled, and my lifespan limit is also less than one hundred years..."

"I realized that if I continued like this, I would sooner or later die mediocrely."

"Heaven never seals off all exits. That day I accidentally encountered a strange daoist. After a conversation, that daoist was greatly pleased and gifted me several volumes of evil dao arts, and the Human Life Pill, as well as the pill formula for this Transfer Life Transform Origin Pill."

"I cultivated evil arts, refined evil pills, entered the evil dao, and suddenly felt enlightened."

"Is there humanity in this world?"

"There can be, or there can be not. It all depends on how you yourself see it."

"If you treat others as humans, then they are humans. If you don't treat them as humans, they are not humans."

"Others are only tools for you to earn spirit stones, servants for you to rush forward, pigs and dogs for you to slaughter, spirit slaves and blood slaves for your cultivation, and foundation stones for your great dao."

"I then understood that in this world, people all eat people."

"Not only the demonic dao eats, the righteous dao also eats."

"Evil demons eat human blood and flesh, sucking human spirit power, while those of the righteous dao, similarly oppress and enslave cultivators, sucking invisible blood and eating invisible flesh. It's just that the people of the world are blind and cannot see clearly."

"The way of humans is to damage the insufficient to serve the sufficient, to damage the masses to benefit oneself. Only by doing this can one stand out, surpass the masses, and seek the path of longevity."

"This, is the most irrefutable truth of this world!"

Thank you PYHuang for the reward.
