Chapter 18: The Twelve Ancestors of the Witches
Qin Lan had been asleep, which made Bai Xueyan a little worried. He asked Wang Tu to find a Lang Zhong and showed it to Qin Lan.
After Lang Zhong finished his pulse, he told Bai Xueyan that Qin Lan might have taken Drunken Dream Flower, a drug that can cause people to fall into a coma, and will wake up automatically after a while. This relieved Bai Xueyan a lot, and a big stone hanging high in his heart finally fell.
However, Bai Xueyan, who calmed down, felt even more hungry, and he suddenly regretted not eating those sorghum flour cakes. After a brief wash, he climbed into bed and lay down next to Qin Lan, wanting to rest for a while.
The Great Zhou Dynasty attached great importance to women's chastity, and Bai Xueyan had read sages since he was a child, so of course he knew that there was a difference between men and women. It's just that he is still young, and he doesn't know much about the affairs of men and women, so he can be said to have no evil thoughts, so that he doesn't realize that his behavior is very inappropriate.
Endless sleepiness hit, he just wanted to fall asleep, his heart suddenly warmed, and the whole person fell into a fantasy space.
Once born, second ripe, he had the experience of entering his body and facing the nine-story demon tower, so he was not very surprised. If he was not mistaken, it was the Scarlet Jade Pendant calling him.
But he didn't understand, what did this jade pendant want to do when he summoned him? Could it be that he was a martial arts wizard, and he wanted to pass on his peerless martial arts?
He looked around curiously, realizing that he was floating in midair. He looked down and found that beneath his feet was an endless river of thousands of miles.
He had heard Mr. say that there were nine continents in Middle-earth, and the Great Zhou Kingdom, where he was located, was only one of the nine states. He had always wondered how the world could be so big, and now he knew that the world was far wider than he had imagined.
The world is changing, and spring is blooming. Time seems to have only passed for a moment, and it seems that there are thousands of mountains and rivers in the mind, and the seasons change. He felt the wonder of nature, and suddenly he had a feeling of relaxation.
The breeze caressed his face, and the clouds danced around him. There was a sweet floral scent wafting through the air. He was intoxicated by this wonderful moment, and had the illusion of dominating the world and overlooking all beings.
However, things must be reversed, but all good things are mostly fleeting and beautiful.
The mutation protruded, and streams of blood springs suddenly erupted from the ground, flowing and gathering together, and he fixed his eyes on the ground covered by the blood spring, which suddenly formed eight big characters, "The sky has no eyes, and the ground becomes a demon." ”
The heavens and the earth began to spin, the sun and the moon trembled, the mountains and rivers collapsed, cities turned into nothingness, and mountain peaks disappeared. The ground began to collapse, and twelve boundless pools of blood slowly rose from the ground, and the land of Kyushu was blood-red.
"Why is this happening?" The huge contrast made Bai Xueyan unacceptable. Once a good thing is destroyed, all that is left is fear.
He knew that what he saw and heard might be an illusion, an illusion created in his mind by the blood-colored jade pendant. But he doesn't understand, he really doesn't understand. Why did the great rivers and mountains become a sea of blood? Could this be the final end of the land of Kyushu?
No matter how many people he killed, he never wanted to destroy the world.
He has too many worries in his heart, if the heavens and the earth are destroyed and he is the only one left, then even if the eternity is evergreen, what if he lives with the heavens and the earth?
The illusion continued, as if knowing his unwillingness, the sea of blood suddenly began to roll, and twelve huge skeleton statues that were shattering the sky and the earth rose from the pool of blood and stood quietly in front of him.
The twelve statues are extremely realistic in different colors, and each statue is lifelike, exuding a faint mourning like a living thing, as if to tell endless sorrow.
"Why am I so sad?" two tears slipped from the corners of Bai Xueyan's eyes, and in a trance, he seemed to see that the twelve skeleton statues had turned into twelve peerless men and women, whispering to him.
"Who are you, and what do you want to say?"
Time is like a mirror, dancing around the snowy rocks. His thoughts, following the trajectory of time, broke through the shackles, transcended the end of time and space, and came to tens of thousands of years ago, becoming a silent observer.
At this time, the world was beginning to open, the demon clan in the Kyushu continent was rampant, the demon clan was raging, and the humble human race became the food of captivity, as low as livestock.
But the Terrans were unwilling to accept their fate, and in the midst of continuous resistance, the Terrans gave birth to twelve heroes with outstanding talents.
They are Bei Harvest, Ju Mang, Gonggong, Zhu Rong, Hou Tu, Tian Wu, Xuan Ming, Qiang Liang, Xi Zi, Di Jiang, Candle Jiuyin, and Luxury Corpse.
These twelve people were called the Twelve Witch Ancestors at that time, and later generations completely demonized them and called them the Twelve Demon Gods.
The power of the Twelve Witch Ancestors mainly comes from the blood sacrifice, that is, the sacrifice, the stronger the sacrifice, the stronger the power of the Twelve Witch Ancestors.
At the beginning of the battle, the demon race and the demon race were very powerful, and the human race was defeated repeatedly. But as batches of demon clan disciples and demon clan children became sacrifices, the strength of the twelve witch ancestors became stronger and stronger, and it had reached a terrifying situation. On the contrary, as one disappears from the other, the power of the demon race and the demon race is getting weaker and weaker.
At this time, there was a split within the demon clan, and the monkey clan saw that the demon clan was gone, so they decisively took refuge in the human race and became an ally.
The balance of victory tilted at this moment, and the Twelve Witch Ancestors, with the help of the Monkey Clan, joined forces to seal the rest of the Demon Clan to the Desolate Land. The demons were sealed under the Yellow Spring.
The human race finally became the master of the land of Kyushu, and Wu is the master of this world, and the human race has entered the years of respect for witches.
But the power of the witch mainly comes from the blood sacrifice, and the loss of the demon clan and the demon clan as sacrifices, the witch can only use the monkey clan and ordinary people to sacrifice, which has caused the dissatisfaction of the monkey clan and most people. But the power of the witch is too strong, even in the heyday of the demon race and the demon race, it can't shake its edge head-on, let alone the monkey race and ordinary people.
So the monkey clan and ordinary people, while enduring the cruel blood sacrifice of the witch, secretly accumulated strength, and finally produced three forces that should not be underestimated. One of the most powerful forces comes from the Monkey Clan.
The children of the monkey clan are born with a strong physique, which is far from being comparable to humans. But all demon clans have a drawback, that is, the cultivation process is extremely slow, and it takes hundreds of thousands of years to grow the demon core in the body little by little, which is also the main reason why the demon clan will lose to the twelve witch ancestors.
But after the monkey clan took refuge in the human race, many monkey children intermarried with the human race and gave birth to offspring, these descendants did not have a demon core in their bodies, but produced a new thing, which later generations called it the spiritual root.
Anyone who has a spiritual root can get twice the result with half the effort when they cultivate the exercises of the monkey clan, and they can have extremely powerful power in a short period of time, and they call themselves Taoist priests.
The monkeys were ecstatic and began to intermarry with humans, hoping to replace the rule of witches and become the rulers of heaven and earth. Unexpectedly, the number of human races is too much, and the monkey clan steals chickens and rice, and loses their wives and soldiers. Only a thousand years have passed, and there is no pure-blooded monkey demon in the land of Kyushu, and the monkey race has been completely assimilated by humans and integrated into humans.
If that's all there is, the monkey clan won't be completely disappointed, after all, they still have offspring from monkey demons and humans. What can disappoint the monkey clan is that the direct descendants produced by the combination of the monkey demon and the human have a spiritual root, and the probability of the next generation is very low, even if two people with a spiritual root are combined, their descendants only have a very small probability of producing a spiritual root.
As a result, when a large number of cultivators fall or shatter the void, there are fewer and fewer people who are suitable for cultivation. Thousands of years later, many Dao Sects could only hide in the mountains and rivers, looking for humans suitable for cultivation everywhere, that is, descendants with monkey demon blood in their bodies.
The second force that rebelled against the Great Witch came from the strong among the ordinary people. These people don't have spiritual roots, they are not suitable for cultivation, and even if they obtain the Monkey Clan Exercises, they are useless. But after a long period of exploration, these people created another kind of exercise called "martial arts", and they called themselves martial artists.
The cultivation method of a martial artist is to absorb the power of the sun, moon and stars, transform it into true qi, and condense it in the dantian. When fighting with people, the true qi travels all over the body, and every punch and kick contains the power of opening mountains and cracking stones.
However, this method of cultivation is extremely difficult and requires great perseverance and talent to achieve something. But once you cultivate to the depths of the depths, you can still resist the wind, enter the sainthood with martial arts, and destroy the world with a sigh.
The third force that rebelled against the Great Witch was those who had neither spiritual roots nor were suitable for martial arts. They are numerous and possess unimaginable power of faith. They prayed for God's help every day, hoping to escape the cruel rule of the Great Witch, live in peace, and finally created a creature called "Buddha" with their faith.
The Buddha is everywhere, it is both virtual and real. Its power comes from faith, everyone can become a Buddha, everyone is a Buddha themselves, as long as you have faith, you can get the power of a Buddha. God is hidden in heaven and earth, not in the wheel of life, and the three thousand worlds are wiped out in the snap of a finger.
Those who devote themselves to practicing Buddhism call themselves monks.
Taoist priests, warriors, and monks, the three parties have joined forces to challenge the rule of the Twelve Witch Ancestors. But the power that Wu obtained through blood sacrifice is the purest chaotic power in heaven and earth. It is neither spiritual power, nor the power of true qi and faith, but it can be transformed into any kind of power. However, all sorcerers can use their chaotic power to cultivate the Dao, martial arts, and Buddhas, but the Daowu Buddha cannot practice the exercises of witches.
This caused the Dao Martial Buddha to always be in a passive situation, no matter how much he resisted, he could not resist the bloody suppression of the Twelve Witch Ancestors. And the fall of every Dao Martial Buddha will make Wu even stronger. Because the power of witches does not come from cultivation, but from killing and blood sacrifices.
But this battle is not over, the most powerful thing about the human race is not the exercises, but the brain. The great sage in the Daowu Buddha took advantage of the arrogant personality of the Twelve Witch Ancestors to constantly create rumors and sow discord, and finally made the Twelve Witch Ancestors turn against each other and fight for the false name of the first person in heaven and earth. The results are predictable.
Bai Xueyan didn't know how to describe this battle, and all the terrifying words seemed insignificant in front of this battle.
When the Twelve Witch Ancestors were both defeated, Dao Martial Buddha shot at the same time, and finally won or lost the battle. Since then, there is no shadow of witch in the land of Kyushu, and anyone related to witch will be characterized as a demon and be hunted down by the Taoist Buddha.
However, the twelve witch ancestors have cultivated into an immortal body, and there is no way to kill them, so in desperation, the powerful people in the Daowu Buddha collectively joined forces to extract the souls of the twelve witch ancestors, and refined the bodies of the twelve witch ancestors into twelve skeletons, which were buried deep in different places in the land of Kyushu. And the souls of the Twelve Witch Ancestors were sealed in the Terran Supreme Treasure Swallowing Heaven Tower.
The predecessor of the Sky Swallowing Tower was the Demon Clan's First Supreme Treasure Ten Thousand Demon Heavenly Book. This book of heaven is the condensed by the Tiantian stone left after Pangu dissected Nuwa to mend the sky, and the jade extracted from the mending heaven. On the surface, it looks like a bundle of jade slips, but in fact, it contains the supreme mana that devours heaven and earth.
After the demons were tragically sealed to the land of Yellow Springs, the jade slip fell into the hands of the Twelve Witch Ancestors, and the Twelve Witch Ancestors refined the Ten Thousand Demon Heavenly Book into a nine-story pagoda in order to keep this treasure as the only one, named the Sky Swallowing Tower.
Unexpectedly, everything in the underworld has its own certainty, and the Heaven Swallowing Tower condensed by the Twelve Witch Ancestors has finally become a magic weapon to seal themselves.
But the Twelve Witch Ancestors are all peerless and unborn geniuses, and they have only fallen into the trap of the human race because of their arrogance, how can they be willing to be sealed.
When he was dying, the Twelve Witch Ancestors issued a curse with endless life. Ten thousand years later, the people who accept the inheritance of the Great Witch will open the wilderness, break through the Yellow Spring, release the demons and demons of the year, and let the lives of the land of Kyushu be ruined, and the ungrateful human beings will be completely destroyed.
And this inheritor was staring at the beam of the house in a daze at this time, with a cold sweat on his forehead.
