Wang Jiu was not that uncertain about the life and death of the Demon Emperor.

Because even if the previous conclusions are only inferred from indirect evidence, indirect evidence is powerful after all.

But now when Wang Jiu revisits the details of the battle back then, it is becoming increasingly difficult for Wang Jiu to be sure of his conclusion.

Is the Great Demon Emperor really dead?

Is it possible that both sides were just suffering from losses and fell into a deep sleep like myself?

Although the result of scanning the demon sword in Xiangzhou was that the demon clan had already destroyed it, perhaps it was just because the Demon Emperor's sleeping place was not in Xiangzhou? Or perhaps over the long years, the other party changed his life form, which made the scanning of the demon sword ineffective?

This is not impossible. During the decisive battle, when the Demon Emperor used nine styles to fight the Demon Sword, the warning system of the Outer Heaven Divine Sword did not give a timely alarm. The sword completely pursed the aura of the demon clan, as if it was from another completely different creature, so that the Outer Heaven Divine Sword could not react at all.

Thinking of this, especially in connection with the reaction of the Demon Sword to the Holy Sect leader not long ago, Wang Jiu even had a strong doubt about the life and death of the Demon Emperor.

"Senior, come and see, I found an important clue!"

Upon hearing this, Wang Jiu saw the master of the Holy Sect standing on the edge of the platform, waving to him with a serious and eager look on his face.

"I found the whereabouts of the first sect leader!"

Wang Jiufei went forward and followed the direction of the sect leader's finger. Sure enough, he saw a row of footprints floating in the chaos outside the platform.

The sect leader said: "After I crossed the Broken Immortal Wall, I felt something familiar here, but I could never determine its location... I just tried to scan the four directions with my soul again, and finally found a trace of the indefinite breath of the Holy Sect in the chaos outside the platform."

Wang Jiu looked at the row of footprints and asked, "How are you sure it was left by the first sect leader?"

"Because this is the only possibility!" said the sect leader excitedly, "This relic, which is the Golden Genting ruins, has been under the management of the Holy Sect since the first discovery of the first sect leader, and every entry and exit has been strictly recorded. So far, no record has been shown that anyone can go deep into this place, except for the first sect leader's eternal farewell at the end of his life."

Wang Jiu pondered for a moment and admitted that this speculation was reliable.

With the strength of the battle between immortals and demons, there is no survivor in the core battlefield. Those who can leave footprints on the fragments of the Golden Genting High Platform will only be later generations. Since the Holy Sect manages the exploration actions of all later generations, the sect leader's judgment has the highest authority.

"With the power of the first generation of the Holy Sect, is it possible to penetrate into this place?"

The sect leader said, "If we follow the path we came here... it shouldn't be able to go. Historical records show that although the two sect leaders of the first generation are very talented and have a far higher strength and vision than their peers at that time, they did not exceed the limits of the times. Their realm of true essence is still very weak today, and it is already very difficult to withstand the outer chaotic tides of the No. 1 ruins. However, the outer layer of the sect leader is very unstable, and it may not be impossible to have a safe passage... and the two sect leaders found that passage when they explored for the last time. Moreover, historical records show that the two sect leaders had a lot of prehistoric relics at that time. Perhaps they could only keep the road smoothly with the protection of the prehistoric relics."

This explanation is also reasonable. In Wang Jiu's opinion, the spatial structure around the dark golden fragments that left footprints was quite unstable, which not only meant that it was risky, but also meant that there was a shortcut here two thousand years ago.

However, no matter how reasonable the explanation is, it cannot dispel Wang Jiu's suspicion of the first sect leader at this time.

Because when I saw the footprints, the finger magic sword began to tremble again.

"Follow up and take a look."

"Okay, senior, follow me."

The sect leader said, stretching forward again, sweeping the chaos outside the platform into the air, revealing the straight passage.

It took a long time to go along the way. The dark golden fragments stood on the platform and looked only a few hundred meters apart, but the spatial structure in the chaos ruins often distorted. The sect leader and Wang Jiu walked along the open road for half an hour, with a straight line distance of more than a thousand miles before finally reaching the dark golden fragments.

When the sect leader stepped on the dark golden fragments, he felt the space around him expanding a little, and the earth under his feet instantly expanded hundreds of times. From a distance, it looked just a place with a cone, but in fact it was a vast space of several kilometers.

Dark gold forms the theme of this space, but it is not a monotonous plain like the Golden Genting, but a undulating rocky rock, winding paths, and broken palace remains can be seen on the edges.

Wang Jiu only took a look and recognized the place.

"State of War."

During the Jiuzhou era, the magnificent palace, which had a history of more than 5,000 years, contains the relics of countless immortal cultivators with amazing military achievements. After the completion of the Jinyunding, it was moved to the Jinyunding. During the war between the immortals and demons, the Temple of War became a specimen exhibition hall for the demons. Humans displayed the bodies of the demons seized in the war to boost morale. After the Tianwai Divine Sword participated in the battle, the Temple of War was expanded several times... However, the magnificent palace that was once as good as a mountain is now only a broken corner.

"Senior, the footprints are just pointing to the ruins of the palace." The sect leader said, as he flew over first, and even ignored the possible trap mechanisms on the road.

For the people of the Holy Sect, the legendary story of the first sect leader was influenced by the moment they started. The two of them were hailed as the light of civilization in the dark age, guiding survivors out of refuges and establishing a new civilization on the earth. Their fairness, selflessness, foresight and greatness have amazed future generations countless times, and they are simply time travelers in the story.

And they are indeed as mysterious as time travelers. First of all, their origin is unknown, as if they were born in a flash, and their destinations were also unknown. People only know that their last appearance was before the entrance to the ruins No. 1. In the next two thousand years, the Holy Sect organized countless relic explorations, including the purpose of finding the body of the first sect leader, but no one could find the body after two thousand years. So much so that time travelers have been popular in the Holy Sect saying that the two sect leaders may have traveled through the infinitely distant future or infinitely distant past to help mankind through historical difficulties, and then they succeeded and retreated to their due era...

Now it seems that time travel is obviously untenable. The original sect leader has found the last footprints of the two first sect leaders in the ruins of the vast lands.

"Senior, found it!"

A moment later, the sect leader's surprise voice came from the ruins of the palace.

Wang Jiu flew over with deep thought.

The ruins of the palace are located near the edge of the entire space. The main body of the Temple of War has been lost in chaos. The remaining part is only the side hall that was once used to exhibit intermediate demon specimens, and the well-preserved one is just an exhibition room.

The leader of the Holy Sect was standing in the middle of the exhibition room, with two piles of ashes on the ground in front of him.

"Senior, here!"

Without waiting for him to say that Wang Jiu had approached, stood beside the pile of ashes, and activated the magic sword again.

These two ashes should be the bodies left by the first sect leader. The fluctuations of the Holy Sect's martial arts are still left after ten thousand years, but the body itself looks very strange.

It is not the ashes left after cremation, but the residue left after using strong crushing pressure to grind the body into pieces and filter it after filtration. According to the traditional habits of human society, this is a more tragic treatment than crushing bones and ashes. These two people don’t know how self-loathing they are, so they chose this way of self-destruction.

But the mood of the first sect leader is no longer within the consideration of the Divine Sword of Heaven. After the magic sword is activated, all questions should be revealed.

The sword spirit carefully observed the changes of the finger demon sword. For the two piles of corpses that were close to each other, the changes of the finger demon sword were very slight.

This change means that the corpse itself does not have any component of the demon clan, but it has some causal connection with the demon clan. There are many explanations for this connection... Unfortunately, with the current level of the demon-finding sword, it is still so detailed. From the perspective of strength, the relationship between these two piles of corpses and the demon clan is at most the extent to which the demon clan is unintentionally excavated to the ruins of the demon clan, and it does not constitute a strong relationship at all.

But on the other hand, living in a Xiangzhou continent where the demons are extinct is related to the demons, which is strange...

While thinking, the voice of the sect leader came from beside him.

"This is... the body and resentment left by the first generation sect leader."

The sect leader sighed, interrupting Wang Jiu's thoughts and allowing his attention to return to the outside of the sword world.

Not far from the corpse of the first sect leader, there were two almost identical blood words written on the wall of the exhibition room.

hatred.

Even if it takes ten thousand years, even if you just write it in blood, even if Wang Jiu is not good at calligraphy, you can see that these two words are full of sincere resentment and regret.

Compared to anger, regret is more involved. The word hatred has an explanation of regret, which is vividly reflected in these two blood words.

The two first-generation sect leaders came to the Temple of War at the end of their lives, leaving behind heart-wrenching hatred...for why?

"Probably, witnessing the remains of the war between immortals and demons, I am angry about the misfortune of human civilization." The sect leader said, "Looking at the corpses of these demons, even I, who have never experienced disasters, cannot help but burst into anger."

Wang Jiu also looked at the demon specimens on the wall.

Since it is a side hall, it is not displayed with the corpses of the top demons, but the exhibits in this exhibition hall are quite distinctive.
