Eternal Sword

Chapter 595 The Dead City
After Chen Tang left the city, he rode away at full speed and soon left Gaoping County behind.

Hu Leibao ran at full speed for more than an hour, climbing over mountains and crossing rivers as if he were walking on flat ground.

Chen Tang looked back from time to time, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Tie Falie did not chase him.

However, Tiefalie's last words, 'Junior brother, we will meet again', kept echoing in his mind and could not be shaken off.

Chen Tang realized that this situation was most likely caused by demons.

"The Art of Planting Demons" is different from other martial arts.

The demon seed is not true Qi or demonic energy, but finding a flaw in the target's mind and planting a demon seed in the heart.

This is more like a means of controlling the mind.

Chen Tang's swordsmanship was just beginning to take shape, and his heart of Taoism was solid, but Tie Falie still found an opportunity to plant a demon in his heart. It can be seen how terrifying this man is!
Moreover, once the demon is successfully planted, it is difficult to completely eradicate it.

Even if the branches are cut off, as long as the roots of the evil seeds deep in the soul are not removed and evil thoughts emerge, the evil seeds will get nutrients and will grow again.

If you want to eradicate the evil seeds, you must first cut off the nutrients!

Fortunately, Chen Tang accidentally comprehended the method of karma fire in the Mahayana Buddhist Palace.

The karmic fire can ignite the evil thoughts and evil karma in Chen Tang's body.

Once the evil karma is burned out, the demon seeds will lose nutrients and will gradually dry up and die.

What's more, there is a knife intent in Chen Tang's chest, which can cut the demon species!

The demon species can also hone the 'eternal' sword intent!
Chen Tang silently recited the Karma Fire Scripture in his heart and condensed the Karma Fire.

But as soon as the karmic fire started to rise, Hu Leibao, who was sitting down, screamed miserably, jumped on the spot, and almost threw Chen Tang off.

As long as one is a living being, he or she will inevitably be involved in cause and effect and karma.

If you have karma, you will be burned by the fire of karma.

It's just a matter of the amount of damage.

The more bad karma you have, the greater the damage from the karmic fire.

Chen Tang was worried about hurting Hu Leibao, so he quickly dispersed the fire.

It seems that I need to find a secluded and safe place, gradually burn away the evil karma and eradicate the evil seeds.

It’s not the right time yet, that uneasy feeling hasn’t completely disappeared.

Chen Tang asked Hu Leibao to continue moving forward.

Chen Tang glanced at the bruises on his five fingers at his wrist, and the figures of Demon Lord and Tie Falie appeared in his mind.

It is widely rumored in the martial arts world that the Demon Lord has killed people like crazy.

The Demon Lord once said something shocking to him, that human nature is evil, and therefore everyone in the world should be killed.

Only after all the people in the world are killed will the world be peaceful.

But during the time when he came into contact with the Demon Lord, the only person who actually died at his hands was True Lord Lingyun.

The Demon Lord even showed mercy to Song Wu because he admired his courage and let him leave safely.

The Demon Lord was more like an existence detached from the world. He watched coldly as the owner and diners of Linjiang Inn were killed by Wang Xiaobo.

He doesn't know how to save people, and he doesn't seem to have killed people indiscriminately.

But Tiefalie is completely different.

This person is truly bloodthirsty and enjoys killing people!
He even killed his father-in-law without any hesitation or mercy!

Before his death, the prefect of Gaoping probably never thought that he would die at the hands of his own son-in-law.

Tiefali kills people without even needing a reason.

Even if you just look at him or smile, he will kill you mercilessly!
Tiefa's killings were completely untraceable and without any pattern.

If he wants to kill, he will kill. He will kill when he is in a bad mood, and he may also kill when he is in a good mood. Although Chen Tang was accepted as a disciple by the Demon Lord, he had no doubt that if Tie Falie wanted to kill him, he would never hesitate at all!
"Junior brother, we will see each other again..."

At this moment, Chen Tang heard Tie Falie's voice again, as if it was right next to his ear!

Out of the corner of his eye, he saw Tie Falie right beside him, walking side by side with Hu Leibao. He turned his head to look at him with a weird grin on his face!
Chen Tang was shocked. Without time to think, he raised his hand and punched the person beside him.

call!
A punch landed in the air.

Chen Tang was stunned. There was no one around and there was no sign of Tie Falie.

That was just his nightmare.

On Hu Leibao's back, he became drowsy and fell asleep without knowing when.

I opened my eyes at this moment, and several hours had passed, and it was already night.

The moon and stars are sparse and the breeze is blowing.

Chen Tang shivered uncontrollably, feeling increasingly weak, with cold sweats all over his body.

He looked down at his wrists and saw that the bruises on his five fingers were getting darker and darker!
The influence of the demon species is growing.

It has even begun to affect his dreams!
This hidden danger must be resolved as soon as possible!
Chen Tang looked up and saw the outline of a city faintly emerging in the depths of the night in front of him.

The man and his horse ran for the whole afternoon and had already left Gaoping County and arrived at another town.

This was a good idea. He sneaked into the city, found an unused and abandoned room, and first removed the demon from his body.

Affected by the demon species, Chen Tang's perception and vision were greatly affected.

As he got closer, Chen Tang noticed that the city walls were in ruins, the city gates were wide open, and broken spears and swords were everywhere, clearly having been through a war.

Chen Tang dismounted and asked Hu Leibao to wait outside the city while he entered the city.

The city was in ruins, with broken walls everywhere. It was dead and lifeless.

Chen Tang walked for a while and didn't see a living person.

I guess during that war, the people in the city had already fled in all directions.

He noticed that on both sides of the roads in the city, every few feet there was a platform more than one person tall and made of rammed earth. He didn't know what its purpose was.

Chen Tang was closer and could smell a rotten stench.

He frowned slightly and punched the dirt above it.

Wow!
The soil shattered, the platform collapsed, and round objects rolled out one after another.

Chen Tang's pupils contracted and he couldn't help but take a few steps back!

Scattered on the ground were skulls with rotten flesh still clinging to them!
This is not a dirt platform at all, but a skull platform made up of stacked skulls!

I wonder how many people must have died to have such skull platforms covering the entire city!
War inevitably results in casualties.

But this was the first time Chen Tang had encountered such brutal means.

"It's him!"

Tie Falie’s figure suddenly flashed through Chen Tang’s mind.

Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, Tiefalie is definitely one of the people who could do such a thing.

Perhaps, this dead city was his work!
In Chen Tang's mind, he could not help but imagine Tiefalie leading the Tiefa tribe to rush in, break into the city, and start a massacre in the city, burning, looting, and beheading everyone, regardless of gender, age or status. The heads of all of them were piled up into such high platforms.

Chen Tang shook his head, trying to stay awake, found a relatively intact and hidden house, went in, sat cross-legged, and began to condense karmic fire to burn the evil karma in his body.

Karma is not only formed by evil thoughts.

There are also various negative emotions, panic, fear, anxiety, depression, sadness, pain, despair...all of which will form invisible karma in the body.

The appearance of Tie Falie caused all these negative emotions to completely erupt in Chen Tang's body!
Among them, the fear of Tiefalie is the greatest!
Even after he slashed at Tie Falie with the sword, this fear never dissipated.
