Chapter 833: Lord of the Demon Star
Although Li Yao doesn't know much about the demon clan, he still has some basic common sense.
If the demon clan is divided vertically by rank, it is divided into four classes: holy blood, silver blood, bronze blood, and black blood.
The Holy Blood Demon Clan is the former royal family in the 30,000-year-old Demon Beast Dynasty, with mysterious and unpredictable powers, and in legends, it can even communicate with the gods, temporarily stimulating the powerful magical powers of the ancient demon clan.
However, in the era of the Star Sea Empire, the Holy Blood Demon Clan had been killed by the emperor and almost extinct.
Today, 10,000 years later, even if there is still the Holy Blood Demon Clan, they are all rare.
The Silver Blood Demon Clan is the ruling class, and most of the demon kingdoms and demon cities in the Blood Demon Realm are now controlled by the Silver Blood Demon Clan.
Li Yao was on the Bone Dragon Star, and he once killed the son of the lord of the Lion Slaughter Country, "Wang Ji", that is, a silver-blooded demon clan.
The Bronze Blood Demon Clan is the warrior class, while the Black Blood Demon Clan is the lowest level of farmers, miners, and producers.
The higher the level of the demon race, the more human characteristics it will carry when it is born, and only through continuous cultivation can the low-level demon clan master the ability of "transformation" and make themselves more and more like humans.
In this small mountain village in the depths of the Hundred Desolation Mountains, the villagers could not be the silver-blooded demon clan with noble blood, let alone the strong people with profound cultivation, but Li Yao found strong human characteristics in them.
Some villagers are almost indistinguishable from humans, except for horns on their heads, long tails on their buttocks, or skin membranes growing between their fingers.
No wonder he was able to blend in with the villagers with just a little disguise!
In addition, there is another point, which is extremely strange.
In addition to the vertical division of the demon race, there is also a horizontal division by race.
Even if it's not a lot of sub-races, in general. There are all Feather Clan, Sea Clan, Zerg Clan, Claw Clan, and Horn Clan...... Strange and varied.
Generally speaking, the demon clans of different races live in clusters.
The tiger demon and the tiger demon live in the same village, and the rabbit demon and the rabbit demon live in the same village, and their living habits are different from each other. Living in different environments and living together is not chaotic?
Unless it is a big city with dense "demon mouths", there will be a scene of mixed fish and dragons and hundreds of demons living together.
However, this remote mountain village, which has only thirty or fifty households, is inhabited by more than a dozen different demon clans, perhaps the snake demon and the rabbit demon live next to each other, and the tiger demon and the cow demon live in harmony. It's really weird!
"Chaos" is Li Yao's first impression of this village.
This is true not only for villages, but also for families.
Li Yao found that in many families, the appearance of a demon clan is also different, not only the difference in the degree of demonization, but also the characteristics of multiple races on some demon clans.
Maybe a tiger demon's head will have a unique collision horn of a bull demon. And the teeth of the bull demon will become as sharp as the tiger demon.
This phenomenon. Seeing Li Yaoda's frowning, he couldn't help but imagine how chaotic the relationship between the previous generation of these demon clans was.
But, no!
No matter how ignorant Li Yao is, he still knows the truth of "reproductive isolation".
Even if there is a tiger demon and a bull demon who are really dry firewood, it is hard to help themselves. Moreover, their "organs" really have some kind of "function", and it is impossible to give birth to offspring that mix the characteristics of tiger demons and bull demons.
"Strange, strange!"
"The so-called demon clan was made by the human race from spirit beasts 40,000 years ago. In that case, their essence should still be spirit beasts, right? ”
"Between different kinds of spirit beasts, there shouldn't be offspring at all!"
"Okay, the tiger demon and the bull demon are both mammalian spirit animals, maybe under the catalysis of the 'demon god virus', they can break the reproductive isolation - I'll put up with it."
"But yesterday, I clearly saw that there is a beautiful snake with rabbit ears in the village!"
"This thing is unreasonable!"
Li Yao pulled his hair hard, and for the first time he had a trace of doubt about the history he had heard since he was a child.
In the past few days, Lei Lan, a cat-eared girl, in order to "awaken" the memory of his "elder brother", read him a lot of stories from "The Legend of the Ancient Demon".
"The Legend of the Ancient Demon" is a very popular classic among the demon clan, anyway, Li Yao found that the old demon in the village likes to squat at the root of the wall when he has nothing to do, basking in the bright red sun, and explaining "The Legend of the Ancient Demon" to the little demons.
In Li Yao's view, "The Legend of the Ancient Demon" is equivalent to a collection of mythological stories and the most basic textbook, which is estimated to be compiled by the high-level of the demon clan and used to educate the people in the ethnic group.
In "The Legend of the Ancient Demons", the myths and legends about the origin of the demon race and the human race are nothing special.
Myths, of course, are written like this, blowing nonsense, recognizing ancestors, writing as much exaggeration as possible, writing as big as the cowhide is, and writing as righteous as you own as righteous as you are.
You don't necessarily have to ask the demon clan to admit that you are an evil weapon created by the human race, right?
As for the Yuan Shi Tianzun, the Pangu clan, the Nuwa clan and the like, it is also normal.
The demon race is essentially an epibiotic civilization, before them, the human race has created a brilliant civilization, even in the 30,000 years that the demon race has ruled the sea of stars, they can neither nor need to create a new civilization system from scratch, but a large number of everything from human civilization, whether it is language, writing, surname, or social form, state structure, etc., this is the case.
It is a logical thing to transform the myth of mankind into the myth of the demon race with a little transformation.
Therefore, no matter how fanciful the "Ancient Demon Chronicle" was, it failed to shake Li Yao's Dao heart.
But in the same demon clan, there are multiple characteristics of the demon clan, which really makes him feel strange.
This is also the reason why he has not left this small mountain village even though he has recovered three days ago.
He really wanted to find out the secret hidden behind the demon clan.
What is the so-called "demon"?
40,000 years ago, in the ancient cultivation era, the human race once cultivated all spirit beasts into human form, calling them "demons".
But 40,000 years later, in modern society, the theory of evolution has become popular, and humans have long recognized that they are also a type of animal, evolved from apes.
In other words, human beings are also "spirit beasts cultivated into human form".
Therefore, the definition of "demon" has changed again, and the race that is not naturally evolved, but artificially modulated and forcibly catalyzed, is called "demon".
But if you think about it carefully, isn't the cultivation of a cultivator also a kind of "artificial modulation and forcible catalysis"?
When the original warrior cultivates to the extreme, it can stimulate the deepest potential of the cell, showing the characteristics of a desolate beast, and the original martial artist under the "desolate form" looks even less humanoid than many demon clans!
"Perhaps, there is no essential difference between the human race and the demon race at all, right? Everything is just artificially defined. ”
"Right now, the Little Heavenly Tribulation of the True Human Empire is imminent, and the war between the Heavenly Yuan Realm and the Blood Demon Realm must be ended as soon as possible."
"But the Blood Demon Realm is strong, and the Demon Clan's survivability is extremely strong, and it is impossible to fight a full-scale war within three or five years."
"Even if we gather the power of the two worlds of Tian Yuan and Flying Star, turn the Blood Demon Star into a scorched earth, and completely occupy the surface, the remnants of the demon clan can still run into the ground and carry out protracted guerrilla warfare, attrition war, and harassment war, and contain most of our forces!"
"At that time, we, who killed a thousand enemies and lost eight hundred, what else could we use to fight the True Human Empire?"
"What to do? How can this war be ended in just a few years? ”
"Perhaps, we can think differently."
"I now have the power of the Blood Pattern Clan, and I can carry out new cultivation on myself from the cellular and even genetic levels, and even absorb the essence of demon beasts and demon clans, embed them in my gene chain, complete my body, and refine the incomparable 'Heavenly Tribulation Battle Body'!"
"With this ability, I may be able to cultivate the power of the demon clan at an extremely fast speed without using the power of a cultivator, and in a very short period of time, I will become a strong person in the demon clan, and I will have a certain influence, even ...... Lord of the Demon Stars! ”
"When the time comes, won't I have the ability to manipulate the course of this war?"
The corners of Li Yao's mouth involuntarily evoked a cold smile, as if he hadn't even noticed it, he was wrapped in bandages, and his left arm, which was somewhat atrophied, quietly plumped, as if a mysterious force was breeding, filling, and expanding in his left arm!
Suddenly-
Li Yao snorted coldly, and his divine soul inspired a ray of lightning, like lightning like a sword, and slashed into the depths of his brain!
In the depths of the brain domain, a scream sounded, and a small blood-colored humanoid was cut off by Li Yao's Divine Soul Electric Sword, turning into two pools of blood, trembling and merging together, condensing into a blood-colored humanoid again, only one round smaller than just now.
Blood-colored humanoid, although the sparrow is small, it has all the internal organs, and the facial features are even more vivid, exactly the same as Li Yao, grinning in pain, jumping around.
Li Yao's spirit sneered: "It's only been two days since I was honest, and I started to make monsters again, do you still want to trick me in secret?" ”
"I said, if you bewitch me once, I will behead you once, and if you bewitch me a hundred times, I will behead you a hundred times, and one day, I will completely kill you, a blood-colored demon!"
This small blood shadow in the deepest part of the brain domain is Li Yao's inner demon after fusing with the Blood Pattern Clan.
Half a month ago, on the Firefly, he fought fiercely with the Bloodline Clan, although he failed to completely refine the Bloodpattern Clan in the end, he successfully expelled the Bloodpattern Clan from his divine soul, condensed it into such a demon, and sealed it in his left eye and left arm.
In this way, Li Yao's left eye and left arm have become a cage of blood-colored demons, and Li Yao can monitor its condition at any time, without worrying about it escaping and wreaking havoc in the world.
It's just that the Blood Pattern Clan is attached to his inner demons, and the inner demons are invisible, unpredictable, and born with his negative emotions, which are really inexhaustible and endless.
In the first few days, as soon as Li Yao sensed that he had a demon, he used the power of his soul to kill him.
But this kind of killing method is a symptom but not a cure, a little careless, the demons in the heart resurge, impetuous, the more you kill.
In the end, he could only pinch his nose and admit the existence of the demon, as long as it didn't come out to make trouble, he would let it go for the time being. (To be continued.) )
