Chapter 25: The Legend of the Spirits
The sky was blue, and the sunlight shone through the gaps in the dense foliage, forming thick and thin pillars of light, illuminating the shade of the trees with a light veil of mist.
At this time, one person and one bird were only a few miles away from the mining area, and Zhongli was running fast in the jungle, and his heart was very happy, and he would soon see the fat man.
"Hey, how can there be the breath of a spirit demon?" the Chongming Bird exclaimed in surprise and flew off Zhongli's shoulder.
"What's wrong?" Zhongli asked, stopping to run, looking at the Chongming bird flying into the canopy, puzzled by its sudden stop.
The bird flew back to Zhongli's shoulder with a solemn face, and closed his eyes, as if thinking about something.
"That's right, it's the same as my inheritance memory, it's the breath of a spirit demon, but it's so weak, it seems to be injured. ”
The Chongming Bird opened its eyes and said to itself, it smelled a faint spirit demon breath, which was the blood essence emitted by the fat man's injury that day.
"What kind of spirit demon? Xiaohuo, what are you talking about? Zhongli was confused, he couldn't understand Chongming Bird's words, he just wanted to see the fat man at the moment, and he was about to arrive at the Spirit Mining Area.
"The spirit demon does not come out, the monk holds the sky, the spirit demon reappears, and the nine heavens are shocked. Chongming Bird remembered the words of this memory inheritance.
"Zhongli, we're in trouble!" Shigemeitori left Zhongli's shoulder, looking panicked.
"What the hell is going on, I don't understand a word of what you're saying. ”
Zhongli looked at the anxious appearance of the Chongming Bird, and quickly stretched out his hand to signal it not to hang in the air, flew into his hand, and said slowly.
Chongming Bird's mind is now full of the situation of the war between the spirit demon and the human monk in ancient times, and there are corpses everywhere, and the blood is flowing for a long time.
In ancient times, it was not only the two races of humans and spirit beasts that practiced on this continent, but also spirit demons.
After the cultivation of birds and beasts, they are spirit beasts, and the cultivation of grass, trees, mountains and stones is spirit demons.
Spirit demons are not like humans and birds and beasts, they are born to practice. They need to accumulate over countless years and absorb the essence of heaven and earth before they can open their spiritual wisdom and begin to cultivate.
After countless years of accumulation, once the spirit demon of spiritual wisdom is activated, the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth will be extremely fast.
It is rumored that in ancient times, out of nowhere, the spirit demons appeared, and the qi of Hongmeng became less and less, and it was the rules of heaven and earth that punished them.
This kind of unfounded words, there are many humans and spirit beasts who believe in the power, and then there are more and more contradictions, and the spirit demons finally start a war with humans and spirit beasts.
It wasn't until the war broke out that humans and spirit beasts discovered the horror of the spirit demon, and after countless years of accumulation, the spirit demon formed by grass, trees, mountains and rocks was amazingly terrifying.
One race crushed the alliance between humans and spirit beasts, and a race war lasted for hundreds of thousands of years, with many casualties on both sides.
In the end, the strongest powerful and powerful man of the spirit demon proposed the final battle to the death, which was in the barren land of Fengzhou.
Originally, humans and spirit beasts were not going to agree, because the formation of spirit demons takes a long time, and they only need a few decades to produce offspring.
However, the spirit demon said that if they did not agree, they would no longer abide by the agreement, and the powerful person of the spirit demon would go on a killing spree, specializing in hunting weak humans and spirit beasts.
In that battle to destroy the world, the sky was dark, the earth cracked and the mountains collapsed, the sky changed color, and the sea dried up.
The largest Toyoshu was beaten alive and turned into cosmic dust.
As a result, no one knows, and neither does the memory of the inheritance of the Chongming Bird.
Some people say that it was the spirit demon who lost in the end, so he retreated to the other world and left the Lingwu Continent forever.
Some people also say that many powerful and powerful people in the spirit demons are the essence of the mountains and rocks, and when they saw the tragic scene in Fengzhou, they took the initiative to retreat.
But after that war, the Hongmeng Qi was lost and no longer existed, the Lingwu Continent could no longer give birth to spirit demons, and the human monks and spirit beasts also completely cut off the hope of ascension.
One after another, the human cultivators and spirit beasts who had the strength to shatter the void and ascend all left the Lingwu Continent to pursue a higher realm, so the ten fierce beasts no longer existed in the world.
It wasn't until the last power of the Shattered Void left again that there was a sudden sentence in the sky, the spirit demon did not come out, the monk held the sky, the spirit demon reappeared, and the nine heavens were shocked.
"Then according to what you say, the Lingwu Continent is no longer able to give birth to spirit demons, how can it still appear?" Zhongli asked, sitting on the ground.
"I don't know, if the spirit demon power broke through the void and returned to this continent, now that no strong person can stop them, they must have started a war with us a long time ago. ”
"But the faint blood essence I smelled was indeed emanating from the spirit demon's body, and it was the same as the inheritance memory. ”
Chongming Bird shook its head, it couldn't understand that the inheritance memory is the memory of generations of ancestors, and it can't go wrong.
Hearing this, Zhongli slapped the ground with one hand and stood up suddenly.
"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it, the sky is falling, and there are tall people on top. Zhongli comforted Chongming Bird.
"Even if the spirit demon really comes back, we have to cultivate our strength to protect ourselves, let's go find the fat man first, and then let's practice together!"
Zhongli looked at the Chongming Bird with an impatient look in his eyes.
Chongming Bird sighed softly in his heart, it is estimated that Zhongli just listened to it, and still had no concept of the spirit demon.
"Okay, let's go find the fat man first. The bird flew up Zhongli's shoulder.
When Zhongli heard Chongming's promise, he ran excitedly again, looking ahead and running.
When a person and a bird cautiously approached the spirit mining area, they saw a dilapidated scene.
The house that Biyun Sect had built at the beginning had long since collapsed, and all the mines had collapsed, and the corpses of Biyun Sect and mine slaves were everywhere.
Not only how long has passed, but the spirit mining area at this time emits an unpleasant smell of rotting corpses, which is disgusting.
"Fatty!" Zhongli saw the dilapidated Spirit Mining Area and leapt down from the mountain range.
Zhongli kept overturning boulders and removing fallen trees one by one.
This one isn't, this one isn't, not yet, fatty, where the hell are you!?
Zhongli's hands were already mottled with blood, but he didn't know the pain, and kept turning the corpses that were crushed by the boulders, punching through the mine hole, and turning out the blocked falling rocks.
No, still no! Zhongli was in a complicated mood at the moment, he was worried that he would not find the fat man, and he was worried about finding his body.
"Zhongli, there is no living person here, and you haven't found the fat man, maybe he has escaped. ”
The Chongming Bird flew in front of Zhongli, who was kneeling on the ground, and it didn't know how to comfort him at the moment.
"And I can feel it, it's the breath of the spirit demon, there should be a battle here a few days ago. ”
Zhongli didn't say a word, his head bowed, and he knelt on the ground, his fists clenched tightly, his nails sinking into his skin.
Knowing that he couldn't say any more, he was feeling uncomfortable now, and the more he talked about it, the more worried he became.
"Xiaohuo, the fat man must still be hiding in a corner, he is waiting for me to save him, can you help me. ”
Zhongli couldn't stop crying, and the tears that fell were bloody.
