Chapter 913: Infernal Purgatory

This is a long struggle.

This is an extreme destruction of will, and it can even be said that this is not what a fourth-grade person should endure.

The Demon Prince has been trapped in a dream for tens of billions of years. He keeps reincarnating between awakening and awakening again. In each life, he will have a new identity and new memories.

When you reincarnate, in the first life, you are yourself, so what about the second life?

The third life, the fourth life.

In each life, you will have a brand new identity and memory, a completely new personality, family, and experience. Are you willing to let this brand new identity be swallowed up by the past?

Of course, the personality of one life cannot resist the main personality of the Demon Prince.

So... just sink.

Sink into reincarnation.

As long as the memory of reincarnation surpasses the Demon Prince's previous memory, his personality will naturally change.

At the same time, his body has been broken up, and is constantly being torn apart, and then recovering at a slow speed like geological movement, and then torn apart again.

Just like the ancient Pangu supercontinent, it is constantly gathering.

Tens of millions of layers are superimposed on each other and squeezed together heavily.

But it is far more magnificent and spectacular than that.

The double collapse of the spirit and the body, the demon showed no mercy at all, he...she, it...all planned to kill the demon prince.

Billions of years passed just like that.

The demon prince's memory was constantly cleansed and covered, and his body was constantly broken and reorganized. It can even be said that the elements that can constitute the existence of the "demon prince" are becoming increasingly scarce.

You are a man. When you are reincarnated as a woman ten times, can you still firmly believe that you are a man?

The demon prince, more than ten times.

This is what Buddhism calls... the suffering of the six realms of reincarnation.

Following the cycle of karma, life after life, in the six realms of reincarnation.

Birth, aging, sickness, death, separation from loved ones, resentment and hatred, failure to obtain, and the five aggregates are blazing.

From then on, hundreds of thousands of billions of nayutas of incalculable kalpas, there is no liberation.

There are hundreds of thousands of billions of inconceivable, incomprehensible, immeasurable, indescribable, and immeasurable Asankhyeya worlds of reincarnation, all of which are immeasurable and bitter, and there are thousands of them, and they are also immeasurable.

The five aggregates gather to form the body, burning like fire.

When the form aggregate is strong, the four elements are out of balance, and there is the suffering of illness.

When the feeling aggregate is strong, it receives and distinguishes, making all the sufferings turn to the extreme.

When the thought aggregate is strong, it pursues each other, and there are the sufferings of separation from love, meeting with hatred, and not getting what you want.

When the action aggregate is strong, it creates all kinds of karma, and it is also the cause of future retribution. Moreover, because of the action, it keeps moving, and there is the suffering of aging.

When the consciousness aggregate is strong, it creates confusion and karma, and there is the suffering of reincarnation.

Short life due to past disasters, poverty and suffering. Being sexually abused by others, family quarrels. Tongueless mouth, ugly and lame.

What you ask for is not fulfilled, hunger and thirst, throat disease. Death due to shock and madness, killing by natural disasters. Death due to madness and confusion, parents are vicious.

Separation of flesh and blood, blindness, deafness and dumbness, eternal stay in the evil way, reincarnation in hell for millions of kalpas, endless cycle.

Every "dream", the prince of demons needs to wake up again.

The demon prince kept repeating this until this world collapsed.

However... it didn't end.

When this world collapsed, he would parasitize in another world.

When the other world collapsed, he would be transferred to another world.

When his heart collapsed, he would be transferred to another world.

This is infinite, and it will come back again. This is the so-called endless evil power.

From the time he first entered, it has been hundreds of thousands of kalpas, one day and one night, and he has died and reborn countless times. He has not been able to get a moment to breathe -

So it is called "uninterrupted hell".

The so-called endless hell means forever and ever, without the pain of breathing.

Without the slightest interval, it is endless hell.

The demon prince needs to wake up for longer and longer.

At first, he only needs a moment to realize that he is in a dream.

But as all this deepened, the memory of dreams or sleep began to invade his personality. Seeing the heavenly demons and various forms, he felt infinite emotions in his heart, such as sadness, crying, worry, sighing, fear, and terror.

This is all the past experiences of one life, ten lives, hundreds of lives, thousands of lives, including parents, brothers and sisters, husbands and wives, relatives, close friends, flesh and blood children, all love, all beauty, all memories and experiences, all surrounded by the beauty and torture in endless memories, and never escaped.

The real pain is not infinite torture, but a little bit of beauty, plus the endless urging, so that the hope that rises in the heart is the greatest torture.

How long has it been?

The demon prince can't remember clearly.

He just vaguely remembers that he seems to have a certain identity?

His self-consciousness has almost been scattered, and billions of years are completely insufficient to describe...

In fact, there is no difference between billions of years and a moment.

One kalpa is 15,990,800 years.

The demon prince has experienced hundreds of billions of kalpas.

Moreover, because he is very powerful, he woke up very quickly at the beginning and was able to achieve "one day and one night, ten thousand deaths and ten thousand lives".

So, how many times has he been born and died?

It is too numerous to count.

All the evil things came out, and it would be difficult to describe them all even with the number of Ganges sands. I am afraid it would take an infinite number of kalpas.

The five turbidities enveloped his mind, and he had completely forgotten who the so-called "Demon Prince Shangfan" was.

The so-called five turbidities, also called the five turbidities, are methods that cover up the turbid and impure thinking. The so-called 'desires cloud the mind' and 'all kinds of wrong views', many of which are caused by the five turbidities. They cause the turbidity of sentient beings' views, causing their minds to gradually become Taoist. Decline, dull mind and weak body, more sufferings and less blessings, and all kinds of ignorance caused by countless births and deaths cause troubles, such as greed, anger, ignorance, pride, doubt, etc., caused by confusion caused by being obsessed with worldly things.

With just one glance, the Demon Prince suffered countless lives and deaths.

An asamkhy is the ultimate number, with tens of thousands as billions, trillions as trillions, and one asamkhy as tens of millions, trillions, trillions, trillions.

Although this number is nonsense, this number was invented to describe this kind of thing.

Enjoyment and fruits are endless, suffering is endless, time is endless, life is endless, body and shape are endless, weapons of sin are endless, species are endless, all kinds are endless, endless.

If he continues, he may not be able to defeat Amon, and he will have to use Konard's arrow.

This level of torture was just a look from the demon.

The speed at which the Demon Prince wakes up is getting slower and slower, from being born ten thousand times a day to being born one day a day.

Then, it gradually became a life of ten years and a life of a hundred years.

He began to gradually live an ordinary life, passing through the ordinary days of joy and sorrow, but throughout his life he never discovered that he was actually the 'Devil Prince'.

But...why do you have to worry about being the Demon Prince?

Does it make sense?

The Demon Prince is an identity.

An ordinary mortal named Wang Er also has an identity.

Why do you have to think that you are the Demon Prince? Obviously they are all themselves, just a different experience in life. Why deny one of them and admit the other?

Could it be said that because you deny Wang Er's identity, you are no longer Wang Er?

That's obviously not the case. No matter how much you deny it, Wang Er is a part of your life.

Just like Baili Xi, he is both a prime minister and a slave. It is impossible for him to deny himself as a slave just because he becomes the prime minister.

In that case, it would only cause confusion about his identity, because if there was no slave Baili Xi, there would naturally be no prime minister Baili Xi, right?

Life is a straight line, and every segment on the straight line is a component of the straight line, and no part of it can be denied.

If you insist on believing that you are the Demon Prince, is it just because...the identity of the Demon Prince is more noble?

So, when enough identities come together, who are you?

The personality is confused, the memories are stacked, the five turmoils are confusing, and the demonic thoughts are all around him. The reality of the Demon Prince has been almost destroyed. It is just a look from the demon, which in the eyes of the outside world only lasts less than half a second, but he has experienced enough. A terrible time that breaks the strongest minds.

However, the demon suddenly made a surprised sound.

"Huh?"

She found out.

The Demon Prince has indeed lost his personality.

He couldn't tell who he was, nor did he understand the difference between Wang Er and the Demon Prince. Endless reincarnation destroyed his understanding of himself.

but……

That doesn't matter.

The Demon Prince doesn't care who he is.

It doesn’t matter who ‘I’ am. How could ‘I am who I am’ be able to stop the Demon Prince?

Of course, to say that, in fact, this is not just a simple "I am who I am", but a forced distortion of cognition through a large number of memories and experiences, which is the same operation as brainwashing.

No matter what, the subject of subjective will also needs to be established on ‘I’.

‘I’ must exist.

As long as I think, no matter what I am thinking, "I" is already present. As long as I continue to think, I will inevitably enter the devil's path, because you cannot bypass your perception system to reach foreign objects.

But it is enough for 'I' to exist.

It doesn’t matter whether this ‘I’ is the Demon Prince, Wang Er, or Zhang San.

As long as ‘I’ exists, that’s fine.

Memory, personality, these things don't matter at all. The Demon Prince doesn't care whether his personality is pure or not, nor does he care whether his memory has been tampered with.

None of that mattered, he didn't care at all.

As long as 'I' is still there.

Because, as long as 'I' is there, then 'I' will not be confused.

Li Qi once commented on the Demon Prince like this——

"Obviously there are billions of roads in front of him, but he will always only take the one under his feet. The other so-called 'long roads' and 'shortcuts' are all invisible." (See Chapter 884 for details. )

That's just the way it is.

The Demon Prince's goal has not changed.

Even if he suffered a devastating blow from the demon, he still followed his own path.

As for how other personalities switch, how memories are confused, and the process of alternate sufferings, happiness, and hopes, all are ignored. Those are just processes.

He no longer remembered that he was the Demon Prince, but he had never looked any other way.

He is still walking on the path he originally chose, without any change. No matter how his personality is distorted, his memory is tampered with, and his preferences are modified, he seems to be invisible and walks on that path by himself.

Go on ignoring everything.

Therefore, the demon's eyes moved away.

it's over.

The Demon Prince's shattered body gradually recovered, but his spirit would not recover.

The devil was originally aiming to kill him, so he was not prepared to recover at all.

The Demon Prince looked at the Demon in front of him, but now he no longer knew who he was. A large amount of memories exploded in his thinking organ like a pot of wonton soup, making everything sticky.

"Do you care about Li Qi that much? Can you even ignore me?" Tianmo stepped forward, lowered his head and asked.

At this moment, its shape has turned into a completely round ball, as if it were carved from black jade. It is smoother than any mirror. Anyone who looks directly can seem to see their own heart from the surface of the black jade.

"You...are?" The Demon Prince's eyes were a little confused, but he did not lose his language ability, which showed that basic thinking still existed.

Mo Hu immediately rushed in front of the Demon Prince.

The demon tilted his head.

"Well, I originally thought that you weren't very good at it, but now it seems that you can do it."

Then, he said: "Well, let's press back for now. I think that Shang Fan who doesn't know who he is is also very interesting, and maybe he has other potential."

"You, as his magic weapon, should always stay by his side, right? Then, the rest will be left to you. Remember, if his potential is gone, I will make everything happen again and take good care of him. , It’s all up to you,” the demon said.

When talking to Mo Hu at this moment, the demon's tone was cold and indifferent, not at all as terrifying as talking to the demon prince or as charming as talking to Li Qi.

Mo Hu's body trembled, but he didn't speak.

However, at this time, the Demon Prince suddenly spoke.

He looked dazed, but he still said clearly: "Isn't it right... You should have wanted to go back directly just now, but you gave up. The First-Rank War reshaped the universe, and it definitely has no impact on you. Yes, you will show up instead of going back directly, which already shows that you are 'retreating to the next best thing'."

The demon tilted his head: "Oh? Are you awake? No, your personality is still chaotic, oh... interesting, even though your thinking and personality are chaotic, are your judgments still accurate? Is it because you have absorbed the instinct of a real dragon? Come?"

"Well done, I have another reason to keep you now, but... I guessed wrong. Although it does have some influence on me, it doesn't mean that I need to use small tricks on you." The demon laughed happily. , then, with a smile, its body began to wither, collapse, and turn into a puff of ash, disappearing without a trace.

Mo Hu breathed a long sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the demon has no way of figuring out its intentions. It has always thought of one place. At least now it seems... the master seems to have the value of continuing to stay.

It’s just... is the current owner really the same as before?

Mo Hu looked at the Demon Prince.

He was confused, his personality was broken, and his memory was almost impossible to survive. It took a time that could only be described by Gounard's arrow to completely destroy his thinking.

What to do about this? Memories from countless lifetimes have been stacked together, and the identity of the Demon Prince may only be regarded as dust among them.
