When I become a demon king, I want to change my department to the Taoist sect.

Chapter 778 Doubts
In this way, the three of them escaped from Shengjing, which formed a very sharp contrast with their high-spirited state when they first arrived here.

But the three were not hit hard by this incident. They were quite relieved thinking that if Shengjing was regarded as a sea of ​​blood and the lair of the Jiuyou and Jiuyou sects, it was already a great thing that they were able to escape unscathed after being in danger in such a devil's lair.

Besides, the two original purposes of coming to Shengjing were barely achieved.

Although the details of Qingcheng Pavilion are still not certain, according to the speculation of several people and various signs.

The Qingcheng Pavilion might not be backed by just one power, but by many noble families, even the royal family.

Because in the Dajian Dynasty, the states were almost independent of each other, and even the various departments of the imperial court could not enter the local state capitals, but Qingcheng Pavilion was opened in all the states.

It only shows that behind it is a huge interest group covering many families.

And now it seems that the Demon Sect may have colluded with them, and snakes and rats have just gathered together.

As for finding Xu Zhi, although we didn't see her in person in Shengjing, at least her identity was confirmed, and we can follow her traces and search slowly.

"Two seniors, where should we go now?" Guo Yang asked after escaping from the three states in one breath.

Zhang Fuxiang pondered for a moment and said, "Now it seems that all the noble families are evil and cannot be trusted. If we want to build our own foundation, we can only work together."

"Moreover, I suspect that the Yangshen masters may not have awakened their memories yet, so we need to find the golden elixir first, fellow Taoists in the Yinshen realm."

Li You nodded slightly and agreed: "That's right. The Demonic Path and the Aristocratic Family are natural allies in this world. If our sects are separated, I'm afraid it will be difficult to compete with them."

"It's just that the mysteries of this world are chaotic, and the hexagrams are hard to understand. It's hard to predict the whereabouts of you fellow Taoists. If you search aimlessly like this, it's like looking for a needle in a haystack. It's too difficult."

Zhang Fuxiang said, "So I have another suggestion. The reason why the three of us met by chance is because we were hunting down that evil person from the noble family. Fellow Daoist Xu Zhi also fled Shengjing after clearing out the Weiyang Marquis's mansion."

"I think other Taoist friends will also feel the same when facing this kind of world, so we only need to check which family is in chaos, and we will have a high probability of finding people from our sect."

Guo Yang clapped his hands in praise, and then added: "Any evil involving aristocratic families cannot escape the Qingcheng Pavilion, and this pavilion exists in all states. Perhaps we can start from here and find out which state's Qingcheng Pavilion has experienced changes, and perhaps we can see results."

"The Qingcheng Pavilion is connected to each other. Maybe we can find the traces of many Taoist friends at once." Zhang Fuxiang thought this was a good idea and agreed.

Li You was more detailed and added: "There is one more thing. If you fellow Taoists also want to find us, most of them will come to Shengjing. This place is a demon cave. If the demons continue to operate here for a long time, if any fellow Taoist accidentally enters here without knowing the reason, it will be difficult for him to escape danger like us. We must know about it and stop it."

The three of them discussed for a while and finally made a decision.

While following the marks left by Xu Zhi and heading west, Guo Yang was looking for any accidents that might have happened to the aristocratic families and Qingcheng Pavilion in this direction, in order to find the person who might be an ally of the Taoist sect.

Zhang Fuxiang continued to investigate the matter of Qingcheng Pavilion, looking for people based on clues of the attack on Qingcheng Pavilion on a larger scale.

As for Li You, he was lurking near Shengjing, trying to intercept any Taoist disciples who might come to Shengjing, while also not losing the news that the Demonic Path was here.

This time, the three of them were all subjected to the secret method of transmitting sound over thousands of miles, so they could contact each other without having to worry about losing contact again.

In advanced immortal cultivation civilizations, especially during the Immortal Dynasty, when the worlds were not yet isolated, it was possible to connect with each other even across many large worlds, let alone within just one world.

Just like that, the three of them went their separate ways and said goodbye to each other.

...Three flowers bloom, each showing its own beauty.

Let’s talk about Guo Yang first. He walked westward and indeed found many traces left by Xu Zhi. He confirmed that his direction was correct.

After two months, Guo Yang finally arrived at the war zone. If the provincial capital he had experienced before was considered a hell on earth, then the place ravaged by the grassland tribes was the real hell!

The bones are exposed in the wild, and there is no cock crowing for thousands of miles.

There are skulls like mountains and bones like forests, and only one living person out of a hundred survives.

Guo Yang took great pains to find some refugees surviving in the caves. The environment in which they lived made Guo Yang, a Jindan-stage cultivator, feel uneasy and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

They feed flies with corpses, and then eat their eggs after they hatch.

There was no one young or old in the entire gathering place, as they had all been eaten clean up.

This group of people tried every possible means to survive, but when facing death, they took it calmly and felt relieved.

Guo Yang pondered for a moment, but still could not find the answer, so he simply washed away all the sins with a fire.

But can we really blame these mortals for such a tragedy?
Natural disasters and man-made disasters come one after another.

They have already exerted all their strength just to stay alive, and in order to survive, they have to turn into man-eating and blood-sucking monsters.

Knowing that he had turned into a monster, he dared not see the sunlight again. He was forced from being a human to being a non-human.

Along with the blazing flames, a nameless rage rushed straight to Guo Yang's mind. He could no longer tell what was right and what was wrong.

But I just know that people shouldn’t live like this!

In this world, mortals cannot even be considered a force of arms. After conquering the city, there is no need for the grassland tribes to continue killing each other. Not to say it is completely meaningless, but these mortals will not resist them and cause any harm.

But they also had to kill everyone within their sight. Guo Yang knew that there was a high probability that some demonic monks had mixed in and were using this as a means of practicing.

Before this, because Tang Yuan's teaching was unorthodox and quite demonic, Guo Yang once thought that the only difference between Taoism and demons was the need for different vital energy, and in the final analysis, it was a way of practicing.

If used correctly, it can be praised; if used incorrectly, it can be called evil.

Guo Yang once asked Zhou Ju about these questions.

But Zhou Ju couldn't make a definite conclusion. He was born in the East China Sea, and most of the cultivators he had seen since childhood could be called righteous. However, it was these so-called righteous people who did many dirty things and acted like demons.

Can it be called Taoism just because the Taoist practice requires pure and spiritual energy?

After hearing the two's questions, Tang Yuan smiled and replied, "The distinction between the Dao and the Demon is not determined by the good or evil of an individual. There are differences between individuals, but there is no room for the struggle for the Great Dao."

At that time, Guo Yang only seemed to understand, but at this moment, when he saw the world after the rampage of evil, he finally understood what it meant that Taoism and evil cannot coexist!
