Without a heroic spirit, I can only end it myself.

Jiang He has been with his brother for many years and knows his character very well.

He is a person who values ​​love and justice.

Take the matter of Kaiming Mansion.

Although his elder brother was a concubine, he was not only ignored in the palace, but was occasionally suppressed by his jealous legitimate son for trivial matters.

But he still felt grateful for the kindness in his family.

He believed that even though the clan members in Fuzhong treated him harshly, they raised him up and taught him to read and practice martial arts.

His current life is inseparable from the shadow of the Zhao family.

Therefore, the house was massacred by evil spirits.

He made up his mind that even if he traveled all over the world, he would find the mastermind behind it and avenge his people.

"My brother has such a temperament that it is impossible for him to be obsessed with power and fall into evil ways."

"What's more, if my brother becomes a demon refiner, it will be after the demons are raging... There must be someone else who creates the demons."

Ega increasingly believed that the demon refiners in history were most likely a group of survivors who had experienced the ravages of demons and came together to form a revenge alliance.

Their original intention was to hunt down evil spirits, but because they used shortcut techniques such as Ji Ling Gong, they were mistaken for evil spirits by the world.

This is a camp of misunderstood good guys.

When the demon refiner's alignment tendency changes.

The one most affected was naturally the imperial court.

Especially the attack and death of Emperor Rong by the demon refiner was too suspicious.

then.

The next few years.

Jiang He taught Jian Qisheng how to practice.

While chasing down evil spirits with his brother, he refined demons and forged weapons.

At the same time, make every effort to collect relevant clues.

During this process, because Ega's mind opened up, the clues he collected were no longer limited to the so-called [Demon Refiner]——

All the clues about Ji Ling Gong related techniques.

The life experiences of those who turned into evil spirits.

Why did the imperial court want to arrest and hunt me down?

Was the initial order to arrest the Zhao brothers due to the whim of local officials, or from the court, or... from the aloof emperor?

…

Although history may be distorted.

But it can still bring Jiang He a lot of information and inspiration.

It allows him to open up God's perspective, analyze various clues, and see many things from originally sparse and ordinary things.

Twelve years passed in the blink of an eye.

Jian Qisheng has grown from a young child to a weak young man. With the power of the magic weapon, his strength is far superior to that of the first-class masters, and he can easily kill ordinary evil spirits.

Because demons are wreaking havoc more and more frequently, more and more people are suffering.

Several more survivors joined the team for various reasons and became members of the "Demon Refiners".

at the same time.

Jiang He also dug out clues one by one from countless pieces of information.

"Twelve years."

"Except for us, there are no other demon refiners."

"Even if other families have similar techniques, after testing, their compatibility with demonic energy is very poor, far inferior to Ji Ling Gong."

"also……"

"Although those characters who have fallen into evil spirits seem to have no connection, there is no external cause."

"But they all have one thing in common -"

"Every once in a while, I will go to the imperial capital, either to expand family business, or to visit relatives and friends, overtly or covertly, without exception."

"If you don't go out for a certain year for some reason, you will soon turn into a demon."

"besides……"

Messages passed by Jiang He's eyes one after another.

Just like billions of rivers flowing separately, they eventually merge into the same sea.

【Court】.

Jiang He was already 100% sure.

The imperial court is the source of evil in the world.

The only remaining question is the insignificant details such as whether the mastermind is Emperor Rong or an important minister in the court.

After all, the mastermind behind the scenes has the ability to assimilate and create evil spirits.

And he was at the core of the Rong Dynasty, deep in the imperial capital.

There are too many opportunities to infect and assimilate Emperor Rong.

Therefore, even if Emperor Rong is not the mastermind behind the scenes, he must have become the puppet of the mastermind behind the scenes.

"No wonder there are so many evil spirits raging in the world."

"The court's investigation is not as intense as those who survived."

"They will even directly label those who pursue the evil as its associates."

"I see."

Jiang He spent decades traveling around the world to collect information.

Give full play to the abilities of a historian.

Successfully restored the truth from this distorted history.

Principal Xu would be very pleased if he knew.

But Jiang He was not happy at all.

Instead, his expression was serious, even heavy.

Because, in the process of analyzing the historical truth.

He discovered something even more terrifying.

"The imperial court has the ability to create evil spirits. For unknown purposes, it has been secretly assimilating families all over the world and creating evil spirits."

"Those who are assimilated will not immediately turn into evil spirits, but will remain in a latent state and will not make any difference at ordinary times."

"But we need to go to the imperial capital every once in a while to maintain normalcy for a long time."

"Use this as a criterion."

"It's completely possible to analyze who was assimilated into demons and when they started to be assimilated."

Jiang He smiled bitterly.

When he thinks along this logic.

Only then did I discover...

Don't know when it started.

Various states, various aristocratic families, and various forces.

Every year, countless heads of aristocratic families visit the imperial capital.

Those who control the top forces will go to the imperial capital to meet the Holy Emperor at a fixed time every year and offer tribute.

If you look at it by this standard...

The whole world of Rong Dynasty is already filled with demons!

Therefore.

Later, when the demon refiner entered the palace, killed Emperor Rong, and destroyed the world of Rong Dynasty.

Only then will the demons in the world be turbulent and order completely collapse.

Entered an extremely dark period.

"It turns out that evil spirits have already spread all over the world, but people haven't noticed it."

"Now the situation is completely reversed. The world is dark and only the demon refiner is speaking monologue."

Jiang He looked bitter.

If the imperial court wants to assimilate evil spirits, it will naturally be done from top to bottom.

Priority will be given to attacking the leaders of the top forces, assimilating them into demons, and then considering the rest.

...Isn’t the Changsheng Taoist Temple the top force?

Where is the owner of the Taoist Temple of Immortality?

Jiang He remembered a past incident.

It started from the year when I entered the Taoist temple and was accepted as a disciple by the master of Changsheng Temple, who taught me carefully.

The Lunar New Year period every year.

The masters of the Changsheng Temple will leave the Taoist temple and go to the imperial capital.

As a representative of the Taoist temple of longevity, he will pray for the dynasty, ask for the protection of the gods, and bring peace to the world.

Ega used to think this was normal.

Now I realize something is wrong.

[Leader of the top forces], [Go to the imperial capital at a fixed time].

The Master of Immortality perfectly meets these two criteria.

"After the contemporary master of Changsheng Temple accepted me as his disciple, he taught me everything he could and never hid anything for himself."

"I chose to go down the mountain to look for the devil, and he was very reluctant to give me up. He gave me a sword and named it Dang Mo."

"Even after he came down from the mountain, he firmly believed that I had been misunderstood by the court and kept in touch with me through letters."

"He was assimilated?"

On the page in front of Jiang He, the words evolved.

[You believe that the imperial court has long been corrupted by evil spirits and is the source of evil spirits in the world. 】

[It can be inferred from this that you have noticed that the master of Changsheng Temple behaved suspiciously in the past, or that he may have been assimilated by evil spirits. 】

[According to memories, when the Immortal Temple Master was assimilated, it might have been far before the projection. 】

[Shocked by this incident, you sit there for several days, unable to make a decision...]

[A: Return to the Taoist temple, B: Keep it deep in my heart, C: Intervene personally. 】

Jiang He brushed his fingers over the words, feeling heavy.

He has been practicing in Taoist temples for ten years, and the person he has been in contact with for the longest time is the master of Changsheng Temple.

Even though the master of Changsheng Temple is more than a hundred years old, he has been practicing Taoism most of the time, and his life experience may not be as rich as Ega's.

The two are said to be masters and disciples, but more like friends who share the same path.

If the Lord of Immortality has already been assimilated by the evil spirit.

And before Ega projected into this era, his demonic roots were already deeply rooted...

So, even if Ega has the opportunity to start the simulation again, it may not change his fate.

"call……"

Jiang He's eyes became firm.

He once communicated with the master of Changsheng Temple and did not notice any problems.

Thinking on the bright side, maybe the master of Changsheng Temple was not deeply possessed by the devil at the time, and his fate can be changed?

Or maybe it could be said that the leader of Changsheng Temple was too good and was not taken seriously by the court, so he was not assimilated?

But no matter what you say.

Jiang He couldn't let go and had to go back to the Taoist temple.

If the Master of Immortality is really deeply rooted in demons...

So, as a disciple and as a friend.

Jiang He will send him on his last journey.

[You were worried and decided to return to the Taoist temple to confirm the situation. 】

[Before leaving, you handed over all the clues to your brother and gave many instructions before leaving. 】

[Not long after, you suddenly heard the call and saw your brother coming on horseback. 】

[He seems to know your thoughts and says that he has entrusted everything to you. Since we are brothers, we should share weal and woe. 】

【Then I will go with you. 】

Jiang He has already exceeded the goal for the week.

Not only has the proficiency of the two fundamental techniques of the Taoist Scripture of Immortality and Demon Sword Technique been fully increased through years of experience, but he has also learned the Ji Ling Kung Fu.

Although Ji Ling Gong is just a technique, it is incomparably compatible with demonic energy.

Not only can you use the method of fighting to support fighting to kill demons and refine weapons, the growth rate of the demon sword is far faster than normal cultivation!

The only disadvantage is that it consumes the life of the holder.

The stronger the magic sword, the faster it wears out.

It is a Kryptonian weapon.

For Ega, who is not afraid of death, this means he has no shortcomings.

It can be regarded as a peerless skill that is one level higher than the top skills.

Secondly, the task of collecting information was also successfully completed.

Ega already knows the source of the evil spirit, so there is no need to slowly investigate the information next week and he can get straight to the point.

Since the goal has been exceeded.

Jiang He didn't intend to delay it any longer.

After confirming the situation of the Master of Changsheng Temple, he planned to go straight to do what a demon refiner should do.

Break into Rong Palace, kill Emperor Rong, and destroy the source demon!

Even according to historical records, the man behind the creation of the world's evil spirits is extremely powerful.

Jiang He's trip will probably never come back.

But we can also take advantage of the opportunity of fighting to judge the true strength of the mastermind behind the scenes, analyze his fighting skills, and bring the fighting experience to the next project.

"The point is..."

"For me, I have been tracking it for decades!"

"Now I have analyzed the mastermind behind the scenes, and found that he has already assimilated and infected my teachers and friends..."

"If I don't chop him once, I won't be able to think clearly!"

The elder brother has been with Jiang He for many years.

You can also vaguely guess his thoughts.

Just like when Jiang He went down the mountain to look for demons with him.

He did not hesitate to entrust everything to Jian Qisheng and others, and followed them on horseback.

Since we are brothers, we should live and die together and never leave.
