"Are you suggesting that Zhang Cheng is a spy for the Sacred Flame Sect?" Chen Changsheng frowned, "But we haven't detected any demonic or evil aura on him. There aren't many Dao techniques that can shield the Heavenly Eye's divine power, and if he were really a spy, wouldn't the great figures of the Profound Heaven Holy Land have noticed?"
He did feel that Zhang Cheng was strange, and he had suspected that the other party was practicing demonic arts.
But when various factors were mixed together, he dismissed the idea.
Luo Liuxi said softly, "Assuming Zhang Cheng is a spy for the Sacred Flame Sect, if he were a transformation of a fiend, we would definitely see something amiss."
"But this person's soul is complete, and his aura is that of the Profound Heaven Holy Land's Five Elements Chaos Art."
"Then there is only one explanation!"
"In order to deceive the Profound Heaven Holy Land, Zhang Cheng did not practice demonic or evil arts, and directly infiltrated the Profound Heaven Holy Land as a spy."
"But as far as I know, Zhang Cheng joined the Profound Heaven Holy Land earlier than the Sacred Flame Sect was established, so Zhang Cheng only came into contact with the Sacred Flame Sect after joining the Profound Heaven Holy Land."
Luo Liuxi paused, the light in her beautiful eyes gradually intensifying.
"But the fact that he himself doesn't practice demonic arts, yet he brings along a Lan Mian who practices evil techniques, actually gives us a clue."
She turned to look at Chen Changsheng, asking with a bright smile, "By the way, have you noticed Zhang Cheng's spiritual root aptitude?"
As soon as these words came out, Chen Changsheng, who had been completely confused, suddenly understood!
Zhang Cheng's aptitude is actually not high, only mid-grade!
To be able to cultivate to the Transformation God stage with mid-grade aptitude can be described as one in ten thousand, with heaven-defying opportunities, envied and admired by countless people.
But once the great opportunity is cut off, he will directly become mediocre.
Zhang Cheng's ability to become a direct disciple with mid-grade aptitude is enough to prove that he possesses great luck, but luck is something that is unclear and inexplicable, and it may be exhausted one day.
Therefore, Zhang Cheng is under tremendous pressure at all times.
Especially when the speed of cultivation slows down and he doesn't encounter any opportunities, this pressure will slowly turn into impulsiveness.
Chen Changsheng raised his eyebrows and said, "Heavenly materials and earthly treasures that can improve aptitude are hard to come by, so Zhang Cheng had ulterior motives and wanted to use demonic and evil cultivation techniques to accelerate his cultivation?"
"But he hasn't touched demonic and evil cultivation techniques so far. Instead, Lan Mian has learned a relatively useless evil technique. Could the purpose of doing this be…"
Luo Liuxi nodded slightly, "That's right, Zhang Cheng taught the evil technique to Lan Mian, probably to observe the effects of the evil technique. I'm afraid he taught it to more than just Lan Mian, but also to others."
Chen Changsheng's eyes flickered, and he interjected, "In this case, Zhao Li is likely to be his next target!"
The above conclusions are still just speculation, but they perfectly explain the relationship between Zhang Cheng and Lan Mian, as well as some of Zhang Cheng's strange behavior.
The other party's show is giving Zhao Li psychological hints.
When the time is ripe, he will take out the demonic and evil cultivation techniques and make Zhao Li his next test subject.
While observing the effects of the demonic path techniques, he is also looking for an opportunity to break through.
It would naturally be best to continue practicing the Profound Heaven Holy Land's techniques, but if he really can't find an opportunity to break through, he can only step into the demonic path!
… …
First District of Taiping City.
The courtyard of a simply decorated house is filled with the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers, with a peaceful and serene atmosphere.
Zhuo Heng, dressed in a gray robe, is holding a water ladle, slowly watering the flowers. Every move and every action is like an old man on his deathbed, and one cannot feel that he is a great power in the Combination stage.
At this moment, Chen Changsheng walked in from the front, recounting the events and speculations regarding the Profound Heaven Holy Land.
Zhuo Heng did not turn around to look, but smiled kindly, "There is no need to rush the conflict between Dao lineages and sects, but we must pay close attention. Demonic and evil cultivators have existed for countless years, and they cannot be wiped out in a short period of time. We must rely on generations of righteous disciples to slowly level them out with time and years."
"Elder Zhuo, are there any cases of demonic and evil cultivators becoming immortals?" Chen Changsheng asked.
Zhuo Heng slowly replied, "Naturally, there are, but behind it is an endless mountain of corpses and a sea of blood. According to ancient books, very few demons and evils can become immortals. That is ultimately an incomplete path."
Knowing that the road is incomplete, there are still cultivators who take risks for it.
In the face of immortality, killing becomes unavoidable.
"You came to me not just to ask these questions, right?" Zhuo Heng slowly turned around, his eyes deep.
Chen Changsheng chuckled and said frankly, "I have questions about Dao techniques that I would like to ask Elder Zhuo to answer."
"The 《Taiyi Heavenly Dipper Sword Classic》in the group, I have cultivated to the highest one hundred and eight sword realm, but I always feel that this sword technique has not reached its limit. I wonder if this sword classic has subsequent sword realms?"
As his understanding of the 《Taiyi Heavenly Dipper Sword Classic》deepened, he increasingly felt that the potential of the sword classic had not been fully explored.
However, the sword classic only records up to the one hundred and eight sword realm, not because the sword classic is incomplete, but because the creator did not create subsequent sword realms.
This made Chen Changsheng very uncomfortable, and he wanted to ask Elder Zhuo if he had found any new sword realms created by others.
Zhuo Heng smiled upon hearing this, "I understand your thoughts. Subsequent sword realms may or may not exist… But you can explore and create them yourself, because Dao techniques have no limits!"
"Dao techniques have no limits? Isn't the ultimate of Dao techniques the domain?"
"The so-called ultimate of Dao techniques is actually only the first layer of limit of Dao techniques, while the domain belongs to the second layer of Dao techniques. When the domain reaches its limit, there will be a third layer: creating your own Dao."
These words were like a thunderclap, and Chen Changsheng's expression stiffened as he stood there stunned.
He had read many ancient books, and even Luo Liuxi, Zhang Qingxuan, and others said that the domain is the ultimate manifestation of Dao techniques.
As a result, the big boss Zhuo Heng said that the domain is only a new level of Dao techniques, not the limit of Dao techniques!
Zhuo Heng said unhurriedly, "Don't be surprised yet, the third layer of Dao techniques is still not the end. I said that Dao techniques have no limits, so Dao techniques also have a fourth layer, a fifth layer… endless!"
"If you want to improve your swordsmanship, there are two paths you can take."
"One is to deeply study the 《Taiyi Heavenly Dipper Sword Classic》, create thousands of sword realms, ten thousand sword realms, or even billions of sword realms yourself, and finally comprehend the sword domain, reaching the second layer of sword move Dao techniques."
"The second is to read and learn a large number of different sword techniques, take their essence and discard their dross, and ultimately still move towards the sword domain."
"Presumably, you have already understood that whether it is the former or the latter, there is only one purpose, and that is to comprehend the sword domain."
"So you don't have to struggle with which path to take, just follow one of them."
"There are thousands of Dao techniques and myriad forms of domains. No matter what Dao technique domain you comprehend, you must integrate them and then create your own Dao!"
