Chapter 311: Chapter 296: The Spirit Demon! Reaping Virtue! (4000 words)

Hearing the noise coming from outside the Scripture Pavilion,

Qin Zheng’s brows slightly furrowed.

Although he hadn’t been in contact with Qi Yuan for long, Qin Zheng hadn’t noticed anything amiss about him.

Could it be that the other party had hidden it too well?

Or was there some other secret involved?

In that instant, numerous thoughts flashed through Qin Zheng’s mind.

And in the next moment,

Boom!!

A violent roar suddenly erupted, and the doors of the Scripture Pavilion shattered instantly.

Following that, the figure of Qi Yuan appeared in Qin Zheng’s field of vision.

"Mr. Qin, why didn’t you respond to me?"

"Could it be that what Qi said no longer matters?!"

At this moment, Qi Yuan’s face was fierce, his eyes red, and his aura extremely chaotic.

He seemed like a different person from before, as if he had been switched.

Most importantly, there was a faint yet extremely pure demonic energy emanating from him!

Seeing him in such a state, Qin Zheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

He was certain that Qi Yuan was human.

But how could a human have demonic energy?

Whoosh!

While Qin Zheng’s thoughts were racing,

Qi Yuan’s figure instantly appeared in front of him.

Then, with a large swipe of his hand, like a meteor, he smashed it down towards him.

Qin Zheng’s expression tensed, and then he stepped aside and vanished from the spot.

Boom!

Qi Yuan’s palm struck down, and the Scripture Pavilion instantly turned into ruins.

This space also began to shake violently.

Qin Zheng stood outside the Scripture Pavilion, unharmed.

Although Qi Yuan’s current condition was strange, his combat power had also declined, not as formidable as when he intimidated the three Earth Immortals of the Qingyu Sect.

And Qin Zheng had just refined the Supreme Pure Statue, gained an opportunity, and opened up his Inner Heaven and Earth.

His strength surged, far surpassing before.

Roar!!

After his attack missed, Qi Yuan immediately turned around, looked at Qin Zheng, and then with a ferocious smile, lunged at him again.

His movements and expressions were not like an Earth Immortal, but rather like a wild beast!

Qin Zheng looked solemn and did not dodge again; he immediately clenched the Heaven-opening Seal and instantly appeared in front of Qi Yuan, pressing down with it.

Boom!

Instantly, Qi Yuan’s figure was blasted away and smashed through several buildings.

And Qin Zheng did not delay; he followed up immediately, pressing down again with the seal as Qi Yuan struggled to stand.

Boom boom boom.

Qi Yuan’s figure was again smashed into the ground.

Craack!

Under such violent movements, cracks instantly appeared in this space, with Dongtian Power spilling out.

Roar!!

Qi Yuan let out a struggle-filled roar of unwillingness.

But what followed was an even more massive Heaven-opening Seal.

Each time Qi Yuan struggled, he was met with a powerful strike of the Heaven-opening Seal.

In this situation, Qi Yuan was immediately subdued on the ground, his movements gradually weakening.

After a few breaths, Qin Zheng stopped his actions.

The chaotic aura emanating from Qi Yuan gradually calmed down, and the faint demonic energy also receded and disappeared.

Subsequently, the fierceness in his eyes faded, replaced once again by confusion, and then his senses restored.

He got up and looked around, then realizing what had happened, he quickly said to Qin Zheng, "Mr. Qin, were you injured?"

Qin Zheng looked at Qi Yuan, seeing the genuine concern in his expression, then shook his head and calmly asked, "What happened?"

The other had seemed like two different people, and even emitted the demonic energy unique to the Demon race!

Having received Qin Zheng’s response, Qi Yuan slightly relaxed, then solemnly replied, "I was influenced by a Heart Demon, which gave rise to a trace of demonic nature!"

"I came back this time specifically to go to the Human King Palace to expel this trace of demonic nature."

"I just didn’t expect this trace of demonic nature to erupt so quickly!"

At this point, Qi Yuan’s gaze toward Qin Zheng was full of gratitude and apology as he continued, "Many thanks, friend, for your help this time."

"If you hadn’t suppressed this trace of my demonic nature, I fear I might have caused chaos and resulted in many deaths."

Similarly, if Qin Zheng hadn’t been strong enough, he might have been killed right here!

Thinking this, the sense of guilt in his heart grew stronger.

Qin Zheng simply shook his head, not minding, and then with some puzzlement, he asked, "Heart Demon?"

So far, he had slain tens, if not hundreds of thousands of monsters.

But he had never encountered this type of creature before.

Qi Yuan nodded upon hearing this, and continued with gravity, "Yes, the Heart Demon!"

"A creature of unknown origin, extremely mysterious and incredibly rare from the Demon race."

"Those with frail spirits are easily influenced, a trace of demonic nature taking root in their minds, gradually inducing them to succumb to demonhood."

"And the path I cultivate, Incense Prayer Power, involves a complex and chaotic stream of commoners’ thoughts, making it especially susceptible to influence."

"Thus, I carelessly fell under its influence this time and would have turned into a demon if not for your help."

As Qi Yuan spoke these last words, his expression held a trace of lingering fear.

Qin Zheng narrowed his eyes, murmuring "Heart Demon" under his breath.

This kind of demon, though lacking in offensive power, could be extremely devastating to the human race!

If one’s spirit was not strong, they could be invaded, demonic nature taking root, turning into demons.

With countless numbers in the human race, not everyone can possess unwavering spirit!

Wouldn’t it mean that if the Heart Demon made its move, all these people could potentially turn into demons?

Just the thought was enough to send a chill down one’s spine.

Sensing Qin Zheng’s apprehension, Qi Yuan quickly explained, "Don’t worry, friend. Our human race also has countermeasures."

"The Human King Palace contains a Heavenly Pond, whose waters are utterly pure and clean. Anyone affected by the Heart Demon, as long as they soak in the Heavenly Pond for the duration of an incense stick, will have their demonic nature dispelled!"
