The moment the hidden corner opened, three stone boxes came into view.
Well, well, I knew this thing.
Chen Wen took a deep breath and picked up the first stone box.
When he opened it, a fist-sized stone came into view.
The stone was shaped like a heart, yet it emitted no energy fluctuations whatsoever.
What was this?
Chen Wen could not help but frown.
After thinking for a moment, he injected Spiritual Energy into it.
Yet in the end, there was still not the slightest reaction.
Before Chen Wen could say anything, Xian Hongshao's voice rang out. "This is a Demon Heart."
"A Demon Heart?"
The confusion on Chen Wen's face deepened.
He had heard of the Hearts of Gods and Devils, but he had truly never heard of a Demon Heart.
"A Demon Heart is a condensed mass of power, an extremely evil kind of power."
"This power is also exceptionally strong, but it is difficult to control."
"If you can fuse with it, it will be a tremendous aid to you."
At this point, Xian Hongshao changed the subject. "But excessively evil power is not necessarily a good thing. If things go wrong, you may become the public enemy of the entire world."
"Especially those cultivators who pride themselves on being righteous sects—they will not tolerate the existence of such power."
Chen Wen nodded unconsciously.
Power itself had no distinction between righteousness and evil, nor between good and bad. It depended mainly on the person wielding it.
But if one went too far and their power happened to be overly evil, they would inevitably be labeled an aberration.
And aberrations were bound to be purged.
After thinking for a moment, Chen Wen asked, "What aspect of power does this Demonic Power actually involve?"
Xian Hongshao considered it.
