Sword Emperor of the Astonishing Sky

When Lin Bai struck the warrior on top of his head with one hand, Mr. Wen silently followed Lin Bai's every move and couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

As a close associate of the current master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace, he knows too much about the Nine Nether Demon Palace and has consulted many classics.

When the Nine Nether Demon Palace is mentioned, everyone will think of the Holy Lord.

Mr. Wen had learned from the classics... The Holy Lord possesses many strange powers that ordinary people cannot understand. He can explore the memory of any warrior at will.

It is also because of this that when the Nine Nether Demon Palace swept across the eastern region of the Demon Realm, the Holy Lord found many long-lost divine passage methods from the memories of many warriors.

Nowadays, the books hidden in the buildings of the nine major temples in Jiuyou City are only one-tenth of the secrets of Jiuyou Demon Palace at its peak.

More details, as early as a hundred thousand years ago, were either robbed by others, or hidden by the Jiuyou Demon Palace itself.

After all, the "treasure of the Nine Nether Demon Palace" is now quite famous in all the worlds, and is "one of the one hundred and eight treasures in the worlds."

Mr. Wen waited for Lin Bai to recover for a while, then asked in a low voice: "Emperor, have you discovered any other useful information?"

Lin Bai knew that Mr. Wen was asking about the Demon Slayer Alliance and the Thieves Alliance, so he thought about it seriously and recalled all the memories.

According to this warrior's memory... when he joined the Thieves Alliance, he had never been to the Thieves Alliance's headquarters. All contacts with the Thieves Alliance were handled by specialized warriors.

Some time ago, some warriors responsible for liaison came to this Borderlands to convey the news that the Alliance of Thieves and the Demon Slayer Alliance maintain an alliance, and that the Alliance of Thieves is responsible for searching for warriors from the Nine Nether Demon Palace within the territory of the Seven Nights Divine Sect.

Lin Bai shook his head and said: "There is no valuable news. This person has never been to the headquarters of the Thieves Alliance, nor has he met the leader of the Thieves Alliance."

"But the Thief Alliance does have a cooperative relationship with the Demon Slayer Alliance!"

Mr. Wen nodded silently, recorded the news, and then looked for an opportunity to send it back to the Nine Nether Demon Palace.

"Let's go on."

Lin Bai shook his head and told Yun Zhou to continue moving forward.

Mr. Wen drove the cloud boat away from the Borderless Land. At the same time, he was silent for a while, and then said to Lin Bai: "I think there are some things that need to be reminded of the emperor."

Lin Bai asked curiously: "What's the matter?"

Mr. Wen said: "Did the emperor just use the same ability as the former sage? The ability to access the memories of other warriors at will?"

Lin Bai glanced at Mr. Wen and asked, "Is there no name for this ability recorded in the classics about the Holy Lord in the Nine Nether Demon Palace?"

Mr. Wen was stunned for a moment: "Maybe there is, but it has been lost."

Lin Bai paused: "Do you know my origin?"

Mr. Wen was stunned again and said, "I guess you know it. After all, this matter is no longer a secret among the high-level officials of Jiuyou Demon Palace."

Lin Bai took a deep breath, then he had no worries and said directly: "This is the secret method of the Tiantian Clan, called...the secret method of searching for souls."

Mr. Wen's eyes lit up. This was the first time he heard the names of Shengjun and Lin Bai with such abilities.

"So that's the case." Mr. Wen then said: "Emperor, according to the few records about the Holy Lord in Jiuyou City..."

"In the later years of the Holy King's life, he was extremely unstable, extremely irritable, and extremely divided."

Lin Bai suddenly frowned and asked, "What does this mean? I have also read the classics about the Holy Lord in the Nine Nether Demon Palace. Why is there no record of this?"

Mr. Wen smiled bitterly and said: "Any sect or family's records of their internal predecessors are all recorded well, and very few things that are bad are recorded."

"The emperor should know this very well."

"History is a little girl who can be dressed up by others. History is written by the victors. They will only record the aspects that are good for them. The aspects that are not good for them will usually be ignored!"

"The same is true for the history of Jiuyou Demon Palace. All the classics record the glory and splendor of this holy king back then."

"But there are very few records about the unfavorable history of the Holy King."

Lin Bai asked: "Then how did you know?"

Mr. Wen said: "I didn't discover it, but the contemporary owner of the Nine Nether Demon Palace accidentally discovered it from the life records of a palace owner when he was sorting out the ancient books of the previous owners of the Nine Nether Demon Palace."

"This Palace Master is the Palace Master of the Nine Nether Demon Palace who took over from the Holy Lord after the fall of the Holy Lord a hundred thousand years ago!"

Lin Bai narrowed his eyes and his expression became serious.

The records about the Holy Lord are not in the Holy Lord's books, but are in the books of other palace lords.

This made Lin Bai a little curious.

Lin Bai asked: "What did you find?"

Mr. Wen replied: "According to the records in the palace master who succeeded the Holy King... the Holy King was in a very bad situation in his later years and was not that wise."

"On the contrary, he is extremely easy to get angry and moody. When he is wise, he is extremely wise, but when he is stupid, he is also extremely stupid."

"It's like suddenly a different person, and then suddenly a different person again."

Lin Bai frowned, is it so weird?

Mr. Wen whispered: "The palace owner was one of the guards around the Holy Lord and one of the followers of the Holy Lord. He was once responsible for taking care of the Holy Lord in his later years."

"According to what he wrote in the classics... he once witnessed the Saint King sitting in an empty hall, whispering to himself, talking to himself, as if he was talking to himself."

"Many times, he thought it was the Saint King who was calling him, so he ventured into the Saint King's palace and discovered the Saint King's symptoms!"

"According to his description... the Saint King seemed to be in a state of confusion and split soul, as if there was another person in his body."

Lin Bai touched his chin and asked curiously: "What's going on? Could it be that someone is taking over the Saint King's body?"

Wen The old man smiled bitterly and said, "In his later years, the Saint King had already reached the realm of a great supernatural being, and his supernatural powers, methods and skills were the best in the world."

"Who do you think dares to possess the Saint King of the time?"

"I'm afraid even those warriors at the level of 'great supernatural power, transcending tribulation and ascending to heaven' dare not easily enter the Saint King's body!"

"Besides..." Elder Wen paused, looked at Lin Bai and said, "The Emperor is also a member of the Heaven Devouring Clan, and should know that it is absolutely impossible to risk entering the body of a Heaven Devouring Clan to possess a body."

Lin Bai nodded in agreement.

The Heaven Devouring Clan has a devouring power in its body. Any warrior who wants to possess a body will be shattered by the devouring power once his soul enters the body of a Heaven Devouring Clan.

Then the possibility of the Saint King being possessed is completely ruled out.

But since it is not a possession, how can the Saint King have the symptoms of "splitting"?
