Chapter 1238 - 812: All People Are Demons

Fu Ji said, "Demon Path proper use? So that’s the memory this guy holds from the past?"

Zhang Yu watched this scene, his gaze also becoming solemn. During the Great War of Righteousness and Demonic, Wanfa Sect’s reform of Demon Path proper use, he too had countless curiosities and doubts at heart.

...

Facing Jun Xuanze’s questioning, Yingxin Heaven coldly said, "Immortal Dao Technology indeed has its merits. To defeat the Demon Path, using demons to control demons might not be a bad tactic."

Looking at the unfamiliar face of Yingxin Heaven, Jun Xuanze showed a hint of incredulity: "Senior Brother, do you know what you’re talking about?"

Yingxin Heaven: "Junior Brother, you should mature a little. It’s not enough to exorcise demons, the Righteous Path also needs to keep up with the times."

Suspecting that Yingxin Heaven had fallen into the demon, Jun Xuanze hurriedly found their Master Fa Yuanzi, only to see Fa Yuanzi playing with a Heavenly Demon Banner, the greed, desire, longing on his face... making Jun Xuanze feel extremely unfamiliar.

Listening to the wailing of countless creatures coming from the Heavenly Demon Banner made Jun Xuanze step back repeatedly.

An eerie voice entered his ears: "Xuanze, you came?"

"Just in time, Master has a treasure to show you..."

Fear surged in Jun Xuanze’s heart, and he stumbled out, arriving in front of the Wanfa Sect Leader, Master Zhenji.

"Sect Leader!" Jun Xuanze said with a face full of shock: "Senior Brother, and Master... they’ve all fallen into the demon."

Master Zhenji, by appearance, was a kindly Daoist with a long white beard.

He stroked his white beard lightly and said slowly, "Don’t rush, tell me slowly."

Jun Xuanze, still filled with fear, recounted the situation with Yingxin Heaven and Fa Yuanzi. When he mentioned Fa Yuanzi’s Heavenly Demon Banner, the Sect Leader, Master Zhenji, suddenly said, "Xuanze, look at the Heavenly Demon Banner you mentioned, is it this thing?"

When Jun Xuanze saw the Sect Leader also pull out a Heavenly Demon Banner from his sleeve, he felt as if struck by lightning and froze in place, seemingly in a stupor.

Meanwhile, a voice came from behind him.

"Xuanze, my child, why are you rushing?"

When Jun Xuanze turned around, he saw his Master Fa Yuanzi breaking space, carrying a sky full of wailing, walking over step by step with a sinister smile.

Seeing Jun Xuanze, Fa Yuanzi grinned sinisterly and said, "Now that the demonic flames are raging, the Righteous Path sects are retreating step by step. This only proves one thing, the Righteous Path lags behind in Immortal Dao Technology and governance concepts."

From the sky, Yingxin Heaven’s tall figure descended, stepping through the void to stand before Jun Xuanze.

Yingxin Heaven said, "Junior Brother, do you know why our Righteous Path sects need to exorcise demons and uphold the path, to protect mortals?"

Jun Xuanze gritted his teeth and said, "We are born from mortals, protecting mortals... it’s a matter of course, why ask why?"

Behind Jun Xuanze, Sect Leader Master Zhenji stroked his white beard, looking profound and said, "Of course, there’s a reason."

"The reason the Righteous Sects protect mortals is because only with more mortals can we produce enough excellent disciples."

"If the number of mortals continues to decrease, the sect members of each sect will also become less capable with each generation, how then can we promote the development of the Immortal Path?"

In front of Jun Xuanze, Master Fa Yuanzi gave a cold laugh, mixed with the wailing from the Heavenly Demon Banner, and said sinisterly, "The Righteous Path protects mortals to have more excellent disciples. The so-called protection of mortals by Demon Path is merely to have more disciples for cultivation."

"Whether it’s the Righteous Path or the Demon Path, each has its way of utilizing mortals. In the end, protecting mortals becomes a fight over them."

Jun Xuanze murmured, "Utilizing?"

"Of course, it’s utilizing," Yingxin Heaven shouted, "Without profit at the forefront, do you think the predecessors and high achievers of each sect would protect the world so willingly? Just relying on ’exorcising demons and upholding the path’? The Righteous and the Demonic cannot coexist?"

The Sect Leader, Master Zhenji, chuckled softly, his white beard trembling slightly, and said calmly, "Now, the reason our sect is retreating continuously is because we are far less efficient than the Demon Sect in handling and utilizing mortals, so we need a change."

Jun Xuanze looked incredulously at the Sect Leader, Master, and Senior Brother before him, questioning, "What are you going to do? What have you turned people into?"

Master Fa Yuanzi sneered and said, "No matter what you consider people to be, they are a resource. No matter how you think, it’s an undeniable, unchangeable fact."

"The essence of the Great War of Righteousness and Demonic is a dispute over different ways of utilizing population resources."

"Only the side that masters more efficient ways to gain profits and has more profits to distribute can achieve ultimate victory."

On one side, Yingxin Heaven nodded repeatedly and continued, "Now, to recover from the decline, the only way for our Righteous Path sects is to counter the demons with demons, the proper use of Demon Path. Only in this way can we obtain stronger power to defeat the Demon Path."

Master Fa Yuanzi on the other side agreed: "Only in this way can we obtain more profits and strengthen the sect."

The Sect Leader, Master Zhenji’s long white beard continuously trembled quickly, and he sighed, "Only in this way can we unite the living beings and protect the world."

Yingxin Heaven: "Junior Brother, let’s cultivate the Demon Path technology together."

"My good disciple." Fa Yuanzi handed over the Heavenly Demon Banner and said, "This is the Heavenly Demon Banner I seized from the ’Free Heavenly Demon’. You go ahead and use it."

The Sect Leader, Master Zhenji, smiled and said, "Xuanze, aren’t you going to thank your Master?"

"Mad." Looking at the Heavenly Demon Banner, filled with countless struggling, twisted souls, Jun Xuanze took steps back: "You’ve all fallen into the demon!"
