Chapter 1 First Encounter with Demonic Obsession

Huff!

Gu Shan and Xu Jingming appeared in mid-air, not far from the inn where Xu Jingming resided.

"This time, the Heavenly Demon has the strength of a Suppression Envoy of the eighth realm," Gu Shan said. "This is your first time refining a Heavenly Demon's obsession, and it happens to be one of such strength. I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing."

Xu Jingming smiled slightly and said, "Senior Brother, rest assured, I have consulted many materials and know the dangers of refining a Heavenly Demon's obsession."

"Remember, guard your heart," Gu Shan reminded again. "I'll go back first."

The two martial brothers parted ways.

Gu Shan drifted away, while Xu Jingming transformed into a stream of starlight and landed in the courtyard of the inn.

"Seventh Uncle hasn't returned yet?" Xu Jingming looked at Seventh Uncle's room. The two of them had gone out early in the morning to stroll around this Zhou City, collecting a large amount of information about 'demons.'

Xu Jingming entered his room, closed the door, and sat cross-legged on the bed, beginning his visualization practice.

Visualizing the Primordial Star!

After years of studying "The Ray of Light" and accumulating a vast amount of scientific knowledge, the 'Primordial Star' that Xu Jingming now visualized became even more vast and terrifying, and his mental power grew stronger as well.

Three hours later, it was late at night, and Seventh Uncle had already returned to rest.

Xu Jingming, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, opened his eyes and stopped his visualization practice.

"My mental state is at its peak." Xu Jingming took out a black jade bottle from his bosom, full of anticipation. "After being in the Suppression World for so many years, this is the first time I'm refining a Heavenly Demon's obsession."

"Come on, even the eighth-order limits are crazy about it. I want to see what's so special about the Heavenly Demon's obsession."

Xu Jingming pulled out the stopper, and the Suppression magic power immediately wrapped the wisp of natal demonic energy in the bottle, directly flying into his mouth.

"Boom." His brain roared…

Powerful memories impacted Xu Jingming's consciousness.

"I am Yu Xin, no… I am Xu Jingming!" Xu Jingming was hit by this memory, and for a moment, he was confused about his identity, but he quickly regained consciousness and received this memory full of fervent belief.

Everything was as if Xu Jingming had personally experienced it, experiencing the life of 'Yu Xin.'

Yu Xin was born into a poor family in Zhou City. After his father died of illness, Yu Xin started working at the age of twelve to subsidize the family and support his younger siblings.

Without a father to shield him from the wind and rain, the twelve-year-old boy suffered a lot.

He loved practicing martial arts, but he didn't have the money to go to a martial arts hall. He could only save money and grit his teeth to buy a saber manual for half a tael of silver. Only after working hard all day could he squeeze out some time at night to practice his saber techniques. Only when he practiced the saber was he happiest in a day.

Finally, his younger sister was married off, and his younger brother also took a wife.

He, as the eldest brother, could finally relax a bit. This year, he was already twenty-five years old, but he was already decadent and old, looking like he was in his thirties.

Later, he was appreciated by Constable Li, and with his decent saber techniques, Yu Xin was able to enter the yamen and become an ordinary yamen runner. It was also in the yamen that he truly came into contact with complete martial arts cultivation.

This was the first time in his life that he had such an opportunity, and he practiced earnestly, like a starving man devouring food.

In the year he turned twenty-six, Yu Xin entered the martial arts path and officially became a constable! His hair turned black, and he looked much younger. His married-off younger sister and younger brother finally respected him, their eldest brother.

Yu Xin was cautious in his work because when he was young, he was forced by gang members, and in a moment of madness, he killed the gang member.

Although the matter was not leaked, he also knew the danger of life-and-death struggles. After becoming a constable, he was also careful. He cherished his life as a constable, with food and drink, and easy work, which was much happier than the days before.

Constable Li admired him very much and intended to marry his daughter to 'Yu Xin.'

Constable Li's daughter had also practiced martial arts since she was a child. Although she was not a beauty, she was considered to have a good appearance.

The young man and woman got along, and they both had affection for each other.

Yu Xin only felt that life was getting better and better, and he cherished such days. Constable Li also taught him his martial arts without reservation.

Finally, Yu Xin got married!

Because of his further advancement in strength, coupled with Constable Li's connections, Yu Xin finally became a constable.

He lived a down-to-earth life and was very good to his wife. Yu Xin, who had been wandering in the lower echelons of society for many years, was very clear about the survival rules of the lower echelons of society. He was also very clear that in a place like Zhou City, he, a constable, was just a small figure.

He led the constables around him to avoid danger and earn benefits, and he was deeply trusted by the constables.

However, on that day, he returned home after a busy day and was chatting with his wife about the affairs in the yamen.

He encountered a Suppression Envoy fighting a demon.

The commotion of the fight affected the surrounding area, including his home.

The surrounding area became a ruin, with countless deaths and injuries, and his home was among them.

When Yu Xin died, he was protecting his wife, trying his best to resist the impact of the purple light. But it was useless. His strength could not withstand the impact of the Suppression Envoy and the demon.

When he died, he was full of unwillingness.

"I have suffered since I was a child."

A black-clothed youth said calmly in Xu Jingming's consciousness, "When I was young, I went out to work. As a child without a father, I was bullied by the landlord, by adults, and by gang members. Only my mother, she felt sorry for me, she knew my suffering." "I endured it, I had to endure everything. Later, my mother died of illness. Only I, a half-grown boy, was taking care of my younger siblings. How many times did I feel that life was meaningless, that I came into this world to suffer."

"Once, I picked up a brocade pouch, and inside there was actually a ten-tael silver ingot and some loose silver."

"At home, I held that ten-tael silver ingot, and I didn't sleep all night. That was the most exciting and happiest night of my life." The black-clothed youth said, "You have also experienced the taste of holding ten taels of silver in my memory, isn't it wonderful?"

Xu Jingming listened.

In his memory, the young Yu Xin held the ten taels of silver and was excited all night.

"After working hard for more than ten years, my younger siblings all have their own families, and I can be considered worthy of my parents." "Later, my master led me into the yamen, and my life really started to get better."

"My master has been very kind to me, and he married his daughter to me. I promised my master that I would protect my junior sister with my life." The black-clothed youth looked at Xu Jingming, "She is the best person to me in this world, even better than my younger siblings. But what was the result?"

The black-clothed youth had tears in his eyes and said softly, "Do you think that the Suppression Envoy and the demon were fighting and affected the surrounding area?"

"When a demon's obsession is first born, it is protected by heaven and earth before it condenses into a demonic body. The Suppression Envoy cannot detect my existence," the black-clothed youth said. "So my obsession also discovered the truth. That Suppression Envoy named Fan Mou, he did it on purpose. He deliberately affected the surrounding area and slaughtered thousands of lives."

Xu Jingming was stunned.

"Deliberately affecting ordinary people is to give birth to more demons." The black-clothed youth's eyes seemed to have flames, "When I heard this secret, I went crazy! My home was destroyed for this reason."

"I only had one thought at the time!" The black-clothed youth stared at Xu Jingming, "Suppression Envoys, deserve to die!!!"

Xu Jingming listened silently, without refuting.

"I went crazy, but my obsession became stronger. My first time condensing a demonic body, I was already at the limit of a Earth Demon." The black-clothed youth gritted his teeth and said, "I couldn't suppress my anger. After condensing my demonic body, I searched for a full half a month, without resting for a moment! I finally found that Suppression Envoy, Fan Mou." "I captured him alive, crippled him, and didn't let him commit suicide." The black-clothed youth said in a low voice, "I tortured him for three full days."

"He told me that the value of countless ordinary people's existence is to give birth to demons." The black-clothed youth sneered, "He didn't think he was wrong at all. He also said… that there are many, many Suppression Envoys who do this. He reported 73 names at the time."

Xu Jingming was silent.

There are such Suppression Envoys.

He had turned against the high-realm Suppression Envoy Zhang Ke because he discovered that Zhang Ke was actually disguised as a Heavenly Demon and deliberately slaughtered ordinary people.

After Xu Jingming discovered this, he was naturally furious and felt that Zhang Ke was a madman.

But Zhang Ke felt…

This is the virtual world, and demons are resources for the path of evolution. He also said that Xu Jingming couldn't distinguish between 'reality and virtuality.' Xu Jingming also refuted him, and the two sides fought a great battle. Zhang Ke was defeated and fled in a sorry state.

"I was just wondering." The black-clothed youth looked at Xu Jingming, "Why do you Suppression Envoys want demonic obsessions so much? For demonic obsessions, you would actually slaughter sentient beings again and again? You are creating demons, more terrifying than demons!"

"There are such Suppression Envoys, but only a very few." Xu Jingming said, "Just like you can't sentence everyone to death because there is one murderer."

"A very few?"

The black-clothed youth sneered, "Suppression Envoy Wu Ming, I know your reputation, I've heard that you've helped many ordinary people. But… you also deserve to die."

"Why?" Xu Jingming looked at him.

"The Suppression Envoys who slaughter sentient beings, because there are members of the Sacred Light Sect, so Mi Jia wants to protect them. And you, you saved Mi Jia. Finally, that old man came to help you again, killed me, and gave my obsession to you!" The black-clothed youth looked at Xu Jingming, "You Suppression Envoys, help each other! You are a group, a group that shelters each other!"

"You are high above, willing to save those you want to save, wanting to slaughter those you want to slaughter, all according to your preferences."

The black-clothed youth stared at Xu Jingming, "But we countless ordinary people also have feelings, and we also feel anger! I know that facing countless Suppression Envoys, we demons are just a joke."

"But we demons will not hesitate to risk our lives, we will not hesitate to let you Suppression Envoys know!"

"Those who slaughter sentient beings will also be slaughtered."

The black-clothed youth's eyes turned red, "Only by deterring with slaughter can those Suppression Envoys know that slaughtering ordinary people is a sin!"

"Every word and deed has its own cause and effect."

"The Suppression Envoys started the cause, and we demons are the result!"

The black-clothed youth became more and more crazy.

His powerful belief could be sensed by Xu Jingming.

Xu Jingming could refute some of Yu Xin's ideas, but, in his heart, Xu Jingming felt that… Yu Xin was not wrong to do so! It was time to let some Suppression Envoys know that the virtual world also has backlash!

Countless planetary lives live in this virtual world for decades, and this is a part of their lives, not to be trampled on!

"How should I refine Yu Xin's Heavenly Demon obsession and make his obsession dissipate?" Xu Jingming looked at Yu Xin in front of him. Yu Xin's obsession was as firm as a rock, making it too difficult for him to dissipate.
