Infinite horror begins with Death Comes

Chapter 104 What is the Inner Demon
"What is the inner demon?" Xuan Zhen asked this question again. This time, Zheng Zha and Zhan Lan did not answer, but fell into deep thought.

"The ancients have always attached great importance to cultivating the mind. Wang Yangming once said, 'It is easy to defeat a thief in the mountains, but it is difficult to defeat a thief in the heart.'"

"The inner demon is the thief in a person's heart. It can be a person's obsession, a person's desire, or a person's negativity."

"The inner demon is the heart. It is your own heart."

"If Chu Xuan were here, he would refute what I said. He would use his own logic to understand the inner demon, but that's him."

"We are just mortals, so you and I have inner demons."

"I can use another common understanding to explain the inner demon. An ordinary person's strength increases too quickly and he cannot control himself. He is driven by the power. This is the inner demon."

"The ancients said that if there is any demon in the heart, he will tell it."

"What I lose is not mine. What I seek is what I am trapped by. All things are for my use, not for my possession. A gentleman uses things, not for things to use him. The great way is simple. If you have no desires, you will be strong. If you do nothing, you will be able to do anything."

"The truth behind this is mostly just one aspect of the inner demons. Everyone faces different inner demons, so your answers are also deviations, not the only ones."

"So, back to the previous question, what is the inner demon?" Xuan Zhen asked again.

This time Zheng Zha answered quickly because he had activated the third-level gene lock "Obsession."

"Emotions." Zhan Lan also replied.

"So we have to face our inner demons in advance and not wait until the day they erupt. Zheng Zhayi should be the first among us to face his inner demons, so you must be prepared." After Xuan Zhen finished speaking, he touched his chin and thought.

"What will be my inner demon? My heart is red. How can I overcome my inner demon? Pick it up? Or put it down?"

This road is a problem that must be experienced on the road to becoming strong. Since neither picking it up nor putting it down is an option, I will choose to take it.

After making up his mind, Xuan Zhen looked at Zheng Zha and the others, but he was still worried. It was not so easy to deal with the inner demons. David Jones was an example, the God Team that was stuck in the inner demons was also an example, and Zhao Zhuikong was also one.

Xuan Zhen had not seen anyone who had passed the inner demon yet, not including Zhang Jie, who had only passed half of it. David Jones had even become an inner demon.

"Captain, is the inner demon so scary?" Zhao Yingkong asked at the side.

"It's not scary, what's scary is the heart." Xuan Zhen answered simply. He was not sure about this question. Only when you have truly experienced the inner demon, you will know how scary it is.

"How will the next decisive battle be fought?" Zhang Jie asked.

"Everything is actually on track, just waiting for Beckett to gather." Xuan Zhen said.

"Beckett is just an ordinary person. Can he get involved in a fight like ours?" Zheng Zha asked.

"No, but he can hire someone." Xuan Zhen looked at the sea. The Holy See still exists in Europe. There is also the Pope, a powerful figure in countless movies and novels. There are also those who can go against the Holy See. Their subordinates are not much weaker than the Pope, so the world of Pirates of the Caribbean is very complicated.

"Who to invite?" Zhang Jie asked curiously.

"It doesn't matter who we invite. What's important is that in the decisive battle, this person will definitely be able to compete with Zhao Zhuikong." Xuan Zhen replied.

"According to what you said, the decisive battle is coming soon?" Zhang Jie said.

"more or less."

……

Kultu fled back to Shipwreck Bay in a state of embarrassment, but he still managed to escape. David Jones chased him to Shipwreck Bay, but did not enter. He wandered around for a while and then left. "Where is Pabol?" Kultu started calling out as soon as he arrived at Shipwreck Bay, but he did not see Pabol.

"He went to capture the Zhongzhou team." said the sniper on the side.

"Zhongzhou team? Aren't we facing the group of yellow monkeys from the Zhongzhou team?" Kurtu spoke without paying attention to his words, which immediately irritated a person, Luo Yinglong.

"What did you say, you damn black coal? Say it again if you dare?" Luo Yinglong instantly sent out a magic weapon, covering half of the map of Shipwreck Bay.

Kurtu looked at the furious Luo Yinglong and stopped talking.

At this time, Pabolie came down with four people, holding a person in his hand, and this person was Xie Qiao.

"We captured a member of the Zhongzhou team. Their mission is to destroy Beckett's warship." Pabolie threw the half-dead Xie Qiao to the ground.

"Has Najka read his memories?" Hei Mei asked.

"I have read his memory. The Zhongzhou team has thirteen people, nine seniors and four newcomers, not including this person. He was once captured by the Dongmei team, but Zhao let him go."

"And the person who cheated you is Zhao Zhuikong. There is no Zhao Zhuikong in the Zhongzhou team. So, Zhao Zhuikong is from the East American team. It is the East American team that cheated you, not the Zhongzhou team." Najika laughed contemptuously. She didn't even know who cheated her.

"There are currently three people we know about the East American team: a black man, a white man, and Zhao Zhuikong. We don't know if there are any more." After Najika finished talking about the East American team, she explained the situation, abilities and names of the members of the Central State team. These were all the information she got from Xie Qiao's memory.

"It seems that the East American team has indeed formed an alliance with the Central American team." Pabol said.

"Pabolé, you are the only one who can deal with David Jones. He is too strong, just like you, unshakable." Kurtu said at this time.

"Why should we provoke David Jones? Oh, you are the one who provoked him. Does it have anything to do with me?" Pabolé smiled. Kurtu was so stupid, which was one of the reasons why he was not in a hurry to deal with him.

"Adam, why did the Zhongzhou team release this man? Wouldn't it be better to kill him?" Luo Yinglong was a little confused.

"It's just recycling. In the memories obtained by Najika, even the names may be fake, let alone their strength. The three people who escaped with Zhao Zhuikong are most likely from the Zhongzhou team." Adam said.

"We have been here for such a long time, but we still know nothing about the Zhongzhou team." Song Tian said with emotion.

……

"Chu Xuan, are we going to hide here forever?" The Overlord took a puff of his pipe, took a sip of rum, and asked Chu Xuan a little bored.

"Next time, call me Xibo, don't call me by my name, and the same goes for you." Chu Xuan said.

"I understand, Xibo." Overlord said helplessly.

"Wait for the signal they give." Liu Yuhao said on the side.

"What signal?" asked the Overlord.

"I don't know, you have to ask Xibo." Liu Yuhao sat there in a daze, doing nothing. Overlord's question brought him back to his senses.

Lingdian changed his attitude but still didn't like to talk. Gu Qing was working and the three newcomers were helping him.

"Xi Bo?" Overlord looked at Chu Xuan. He was so bored that he felt like he was going to molder. This pirate gathering place was really boring. All the women and men were ugly and smelled bad. He himself also smelled bad.
