I can't live forever, so I have to reincarnate infinitely

Chapter 798 Breaking off the Past
"You even know the Demon Lord?" The monkey's projection stepped on the void and jumped around Du Youqian twice, with an incredible expression on its furry face.

Du Youqian just smiled and said, "I don't know much."

"The Demon Lord... is just a code name. His name has been sealed by a powerful being. No one can remember it, or even say it. Unless you reach a certain realm, you won't even remember that such a person existed. Most seventh-level cultivators can't do that. You are very special."

Du Youqian smiled and said, "Great Sage, you are even more special."

Yuan Dasheng said seriously: "I am different. I once became an immortal, and I cut off my own path to stay in the human world. It can be said that I am already a half-step demon immortal, not an ordinary seventh-level immortal. What about you? What is so special about you?"

Du Youqian thought about it and realized that so far, there were only three people who knew about the existence of the Demon Lord: Yuan Dasheng, Bixi, and himself.

Oh, yes, maybe there is also the Demon Sect’s True Immortal, the Great Immortal of the Six Directions, but he did not explicitly mention the Demon Lord.

"Let's not talk about me first. Is the chaos in the fairy world due to the resurrection of the Demon Lord?"

"That's not the case, but it can't be said to be unrelated." The monkey's projection bent down and put its front paws on the ground. It crawled leisurely in the void with its tail raised high. "The elder in the clan said that the Demon Sect Immortals who attacked the Immortal Realm were not under the command of the Demon Lord. The Demon Lord seems to have not yet recovered from the long river of time. After all, although the Demon Lord is strong and is said to have surpassed the ninth level, he is suppressed by several ninth-level Daluo Jinxians. It is not so easy for him to break free. But it cannot be ruled out that the purpose of the Demon Sect Immortals is to revive the Demon Lord."

Du Youqian didn't understand: "But the core spirit of the Demon Sect is selfishness. Why would those Demon Sect True Immortals risk their lives to revive the Demon Lord?"

"I don't know about that. I can only guess that the Demon Lord has set up an ambush on those demon sect immortals, and they have no choice but to revive the Demon Lord," Yuan Dasheng shook his head. "In short, the immortal world is in chaos, and the immortals are in a mess and can't take care of themselves. All the demon immortals have been pushed to the front line. Ascending at this time is equivalent to being sent up to be cannon fodder. Although I am powerful, two fists cannot beat four hands. That senior is more powerful than me, but he still ended up in a miserable end."

It did not go into detail about the outcome.

Du Youqian tactfully didn't ask.

The demon race relies on blood inheritance, and powerful demons often have powerful fathers or ancestors.

That great sage is most likely the direct elder of Yuan Dasheng.

Du Youqian thought he should not poke at other people's scars.

"I see. No wonder you, Great Sage, cut off your own path and stayed in the human world."

"Yes," Yuan Dasheng sighed, "Then tell me why I want to destroy my ancestral land."

"I can't guess about that. I just had a vague feeling before that it was related to your act of cutting off your own path, Great Sage."

Yuan Dasheng scratched his ears and sat down again, no longer crawling around. "It is indeed related, because I cut off my own path because I was afraid of death, and I destroyed my ancestral land because I was also afraid of death."

"I don't know."

Yuan Dasheng grinned, revealing his white, uneven teeth. "It's okay to tell you, but why should I tell you for no reason? What benefit can you give me?"

Du Youqian was not surprised that Yuan Dasheng put forward conditions at this time. If it were him, he would not easily tell others some secrets.

Information is power and knowledge is treasure.

He smiled and asked, "What does the Great Sage wish for?"

Yuan Dasheng scratched his cheek and chuckled, "What do I want? I have no desires. I don't want to go any further, nor do I have any extravagant desires, nor do I like female monkeys. I like to drink, but what kind of wine in the world can compare to the wine brewed by my children? The rare treasures in the world are like dirt to me. So you have to think about it, what can you have that can impress me?"

Du Youqian kept smiling: "I think the Great Sage is still concerned about at least one thing."

"what's up?"

"The fate of the monkey tribe."

Yuan Dasheng did not open his mouth to refute.

"If I become the ruler of the human world in the future, the monkeys will be treated equally and can live comfortably in a chosen place, enjoying the same rights as humans. Of course, the premise is that the monkeys must accept the leadership of humans and not act recklessly. The human world is the human world of the human race, and it is also the human world of all races. But in the final analysis, it is still the human world where all races live in harmony under the leadership of the human race. If the Great Sage accepts this, I can make a guarantee."

Yuan Dasheng did not think for too long, "I can agree on behalf of the children. But what about me? I am born unwilling to be restricted by anything."

Du Youqian said calmly: "The Great Sage can be free and uninterfering. But if you touch my bottom line, don't blame me for taking action against you."

Yuan Dasheng stared at Du Youqian and scratched his cheek for a long while: "Very good, you must remember your words. If you deny it later, don't blame me for smashing your head with a stick."

Du Youqian held out his hand: "The oath has been made."

Yuan Dasheng did not extend his claws: "The oath has been made, but wait until your true body appears before me, and then we can formally sign the agreement." Du Youqian smiled slightly: "How difficult is that."

The next moment, he had teleported to the vicinity of Yuan Dasheng's real body.

This is under a towering tree. The sunlight shines through the gaps between the leaves, casting spots of bright white light like beautiful coins.

Not far away are green mountains and clear waters, and the scenery is beautiful.

Yuan Dasheng was lying lazily under the tree, with a look of astonishment on his furry face. Several little monkeys were concentrating on catching lice for him and did not notice Du Youqian's appearance at all.

Yuan Dasheng waved his claws, and the little monkeys disappeared, being sent into the cave.

Yuan Dasheng looked at Du Youqian solemnly, "Your strength has exceeded my imagination. If you can be promoted to the seventh level, who in the world can be your opponent?"

"Of course there are," Du Youqian said with a smile, "Do you know that there is a demon sect immortal who has been hiding in the human world for hundreds of years? I don't know what his purpose is, but over the past few hundred years, he has been using the quick method to train demon sect monks. Based on what he has done, he may very well want to cause chaos in the human world and start a war that will sweep across the entire human world."

"This has nothing to do with me. I'll just eat some melons outside the sky." Yuan Dasheng lay down lazily again, stretched out his paw and touched Du Youqian, "Okay, the oath is established."

Du Youqian didn't expect it to help. Why would a monkey help humans?

"Great Sage, please continue to tell me why you want to destroy your ancestral land."

"To cut off the past." Yuan Dasheng did not keep the secret any longer.

Seeing that Du Youqian didn't understand, it explained: "Whether it's the human race, the demon race, or even the immortals, there are times when they are weak."

"Oh!" Du Youqian suddenly realized and guessed what it was going to say.

"Ninth-order powers, and a very small number of top-level powers in the eighth order, can cross the long river of time and attack the enemy directly when it is weak. So I want to gather my past and use a magical power I created to make a part of my past self as powerful as I am now. As you can see, there shouldn't be many seventh-order beings like me who can communicate normally with you who are going back in time in every period of the long river of time."

Thanks to the brain-opening online novels he had read on Earth, Du Youqian was familiar with this concept. He nodded, "Not many indeed. Most seventh-level masters can't do it. But you're not an ordinary seventh-level master either. Great Sage, you're half a step to the eighth level, right?"

Yuan Dasheng continued, "But for some reason, I, who am in the ancestral land, cannot be taken care of by that magical power. Therefore, I can only destroy the ancestral land, destroy it from the root, and thus completely cover up my weak time so that no one can find it. In this way, if someone wants to cross the long river of time and space to attack me in the past, then he will always face me in my strongest state."

Du Youqian's eyes lit up when he heard this; he wanted this magical power so badly.

But he did not ask Yuan Dasheng for it.

On the one hand, the magical powers that are suitable for the demon race may not be suitable for him.

On the other hand, with his current understanding and mastery of the Dao, he has every chance of creating similar magical powers himself.

"I understand. Thank you, Great Sage, for clearing up my confusion. Also, I want to ask, what is the current situation in the Immortal Realm? It has been more than 30,000 years since the fall of Heaven. Has the Xuanmen orthodox camp and the Demonic camp not yet decided the winner?"

Yuan Dasheng grinned, "First of all, there is no so-called Xuanmen orthodox sect in the fairy world. The concept of sect exists in the human world, and maybe in other worlds, but it does not exist in the fairy world. The only power in the fairy world is the Heavenly Court. Secondly, I don't know what the fighting is like over there. There has been no news from my predecessor for a long time. According to the last news he sent, the two sides seem to have fallen into a balance of power, and the war has spread to the three thousand lower realms. The Demon Sect may be waiting for the revival of the Demon Lord, and the Heavenly Court is also accumulating strength, intending to suppress the Demon Sect in one fell swoop."

Du Youqian found it a little difficult to understand.

The strongest demon lord of the Demon Sect has been killed and sealed, so why can they still be on par with the Heavenly Court?

Those ninth-rank Daluo Jinxian who once killed the Demon Lord, can't they do anything to the current Demon Sect True Immortals?
If the Demon Sect is really so powerful, why are they still waiting for the Demon Lord? How powerful is the Demon Lord? Why do the Demon Sect think that as long as the Demon Lord revives, there is hope of defeating Heaven?

Unfortunately, Yuan Dasheng could not answer these questions.

Even the stone monkey clan demon fairy who was in the fairy world at that time did not know the answers to these questions.

Du Youqian could only explore slowly.

Up to this point, Du Youqian had gained a lot, but before leaving, he still proposed to Yuan Dasheng that he hoped that when he fought against the immortals of the Demon Sect in the future, Yuan Dasheng could participate in the battle as a part of the human world.

"The Stone Monkeys will never join a war unless it is a matter of life and death for the human world. But I, Old Yuan, act based on my mood. If I'm in a good mood, I might take action. If I'm not in a good mood, it's useless for you to beg me."

"This monkey is too much of a bully. Immortal, please let me go and chop him up!"

Du Youqian held down the raging Blood Slaughter Sword and said to Yuan Dasheng, "Then it's a deal."
