Chapter 91: It's a Miracle!
The bloodline of the demon race, because of the incompetence of the descendants, was cut off hundreds of years later, but on the other hand, this ending was doomed from the beginning.
As the first generation of saints in the Xiangzhou Continent, the life of the painting demons seriously lacks secrets, and their every move will fall in the eyes of many people, so even the self-assignment of male and female genders and the birth of heirs are all reluctantly completed at great risk, and there is no room for energy to raise children with demons in their hearts - it is impossible for children to hide secrets after all.
Therefore, everything about the demon clan can only be preserved in a roundabout way, such as the eternal hope of the ten immortal arts, and the magic text in the Lost Heaven scroll that can stimulate the instinct of the demon race...... It is only when the inheritor has enough reason and strength that the instinct in the body will gradually awakened.
However, this instinctive awakening, for an adult, is undoubtedly a foreign thing, a person who has received many years of human orthodox education and takes sainthood as his goal, suddenly learns that he has demon blood in his body, and is the former enemy of human life and death, how will he react?
Immediately put aside the persistence of the past few decades and become the leader of the demon race?
Or do you suppress your instincts and act as if nothing happened?
There is no need to compare these two options at all.
And after several generations of repression, the inheritance that the first generation painstakingly preserved is basically only left with symbolic meaning, and the inheritors of the demon bloodline in later generations have long lost the sense of mission to continue to inherit the bloodline, they have been too successful in integrating into human society, and they regard themselves as the saints and guardians of human civilization, and they are not interested in fighting for the demon clan at all, so the inheritance of the demon bloodline will naturally not be included in the primary consideration.
And after losing this sense of mission, reproduction is insignificant to several suzerains, reproduction will only be built on the basis of marriage, and marriage will inevitably be built on the basis of love, and love ...... It's just too hard.
No matter how strong an individual is, they are actually equal in the matter of love, because love itself is an equal chasing game, and a strong individual will chase a strong opposite sex, so the difficulties that need to be faced are no less than those of a weak individual. Therefore, even if it is a powerful person, it is still possible to taste the bitterness of broken love, and that taste is no different from the bitterness in the mouths of the people of moles.
Of course, unlike the people of ants, the powerful don't have to hide in their rooms alone, curled up with low-quality alcohol to pain, and after the big people fall out of love, they can easily find dozens or hundreds of beautiful people of the opposite sex and numb themselves with continuous orgasms.
Back to the topic, it is precisely because of the equality of love that the demon bloodline that the two demon ancestors took great pains to preserve was finally severed after a few hundred years. The text of the Lost Heaven Scroll has become a book from heaven, and the eternal hope among the ten immortal arts has also become a ritual of unknown significance.
All this is because their descendants really can't find a partner.
Or to be more precise, their descendants gave up love and marriage, and then gave up reproduction.
The hidden demon bloodline left by the two founders has not affected their appearance, but it has always affected their hearts, and this influence has not made them as bloodthirsty and murderous as the demons, but has made them alienated from human beings, and all problems can only be viewed with a strange objective mentality. This mentality has helped them to do better than their ancestors in the position of the Holy Sect Leader - human beings' requirements for leaders will always become more and more stringent with the change of generations, so any dynasty is the best of the founding fathers, and the successors are more and more incompetent. However, the previous Sect Masters of the Holy Sect inherited the prestige of the ancestors, so that the status of the Holy Sect could not be maintained.
But the bloodline of the demon race has completely collapsed, and the generations of sect masters after the founder are impeccable in terms of talent and personal charm, and for the vast majority of humans on the Xiangzhou continent, they are the most ideal leaders.
They were not at all ideal companions, and when they were active, countless monks—men and women—tried to establish contact with them outside of a working relationship, but each time ended in despair. These immortal cultivators who stand at the pinnacle of the Xiangzhou continent seem to have sacrificed their love ability in exchange for excellent work ability, and every time they get along in private, they can say famous sentences worthy of going down in history.
"Zong, Sect Master, I like you!"
"Well, I like myself too."
……
"Sect Master, I, I've actually admired you for a long time, and although it's a bit overstepping to say that, I still hope to establish a more intimate connection with you."
"Understood, it just so happens that the clothes in my room have piled up and haven't been washed for a few days, so you can go and wash them for me."
……
"Sect Master, I love you, please marry me!"
"Please line up thank you."
……
"Sect Master, I ......"
"I'm sorry, I'm a good person and deserve a better spouse."
……
Dialogues like this,If you edit it,It's almost possible to write a scroll of blood and tears about how the straight man of steel is made,In any case,With such tenacious spiritual support,The two founders of the demon clan have worked hard and lonely,Even the blood and tears of the demon bloodline that have been continued for thousands of lines,Finally, it was completely severed。
"How do you feel about this story?" As he spoke, Zhao Shenlu blinked his eyes and looked at Wang Jiu expectantly.
Wang Jiu pondered for a while and said, "It's rare, I found a trace of resonance in those demons......
"Holy!" Zhao Shenlu's face changed suddenly, "Don't make this kind of joke, okay!" You and the demons are not enemies, don't find resonance in the demons! And I'm not telling this story to tell you about the benefits of the last day! I want to say, have you realized that in this story, what is the extinction of the demon race for? ”
Wang Jiu said: "What do you want to say it for?" ”
Zhao Shenlu said: "Although a large part of the result of the Demon Race is destined from the beginning, it is human civilization that really makes the Demon Race Last. ”
"Human civilization?" Zhao Shenlu's conclusion was a little unexpected by Wang Jiu, because in the whole story, human civilization has always been kept in the dark by the demons, and it has never been discovered that the high-ranking saint is actually carrying the big secret of invisible people.
"Even if they are kept in the dark, it is still human civilization that makes the demons extinct in the end, dear ones, think about it carefully, the later generations of the Holy Sect Sect Sect Masters, although they will not take the initiative to be any demon leaders, they will not take the initiative to cut off the bloodline inheritance in their bodies, and the demon bloodline is neither an enemy nor a friend for them, but an original sin that they will be born with. In human civilization, even if you stand on the top of the Xiangzhou continent, you can't find a partner or you can't find a partner, after all, not every era has a good woman like me who is crazy about love. And those saints were too deeply influenced by human civilization, and if they couldn't find a partner, they wouldn't have children, and in the end, the bloodline of the demon race was completely cut off, isn't this due to the influence of human civilization? ”
"So what?"
Zhao Shenlu said: "So, don't underestimate the power of human civilization, this power can even imperceptibly cut off the demons!" My dear, there are a lot of things that you don't have to carry alone. When the Kyushu Immortal and Demon War, you also had the help of nine of us, so you really achieved invincibility, and even your birth is a miracle of human civilization, although this civilization has such and such flaws, but also such and such a powerful, when you decide to avoid everyone to fight alone, in fact, it is equivalent to refusing a powerful help. ”
Zhao Shenlu's persuasion really moved Wang Jiu.
Indeed, although there are too many deficiencies in human civilization, it is undeniable that this is still a glorious civilization, even if it is the nascent Xiangzhou civilization, there is infinite vitality hidden in the immaturity.
Avoiding human civilization and sharpening the blade of the sword alone, although you can avoid a lot of unnecessary nuisances, you will also lose the help of human civilization, so it is really difficult to say whether you will gain or lose.
"So put aside your plans to hide for the time being, there is still a lot of beauty in this world waiting for you to discover." Zhao Shenlu said, straightened his chest hard, and showed Wang Jiu the beauty of his body curve.
And Wang Jiu finally nodded after a long thought.
"Okay."
He decided to trust human civilization once, because compared to human civilization, it is actually himself who is really untrustworthy at this time.
It's that he himself has lost the ability to identify the demon race, and has lost the magic power to judge right and wrong, if he can still be like the Kyushu era, the sword is pointing out, invincible, then there won't be so much trouble at all, no matter who the founder of the civilization of the Xiangzhou continent is, as long as he judges whether this civilization is harmful, killing or not killing is nothing more than two choices.
Born to be a sword, Wang Jiu is best at this kind of either-or.
The problem is that he has now lost the margin to choose one of the two, which has caused the situation to become complicated, the demon race from two thousand years ago, the space-time turbulence entangled in the depths of the Netherworld, and the endless demon spirits existing in the chaotic void have all made the Outer Heaven Excalibur see the existence of a threat.
If it is replaced by the Outer Heaven Divine Sword of the Kyushu Era, these things will definitely not be regarded as a threat, unless the Demon Emperor is resurrected in full strength, otherwise even if the Demon Clan's Ten Thousand Realms Legion is reborn, it will not be able to stop the Sword of Destruction.
It was the weakness of the Outer Heaven Divine Sword that made the Xiangzhou Continent seem to be riddled with holes, so he thought of sharpening the sword, as long as he sharpened himself to the peak, then no matter what abnormal situation occurred, he would be able to handle it with ease.
But Zhao Shenlu's suggestion made Wang Jiu change his mind.
Even if you sharpen your sword, there is no need to avoid human civilization far away, this civilization that seems to have been polluted by demons at least retains the miracle creativity that human civilization should have, and it may also be able to reap miraculous effects by drawing strength from human civilization.
Miracles soon struck.
——
Just three days after Zhao Shenlu racked his brains and persuaded Wang Jiu to give up his sword sharpening plan with a perfect performance beyond his own limits, the research institute far away on the Netherworld Coast also harvested the first research results.
The results came faster than anyone expected, even beyond the researchers' most optimistic expectations, and it was unbelievably smooth as a dream.
However, the finished product that is ultimately in their hands has a miraculous effect.
Among the samples taken from the deep sea area of the Netherworld, the monks of Qinglian Academy successfully found the source of the talent of the genius sword cultivator Xiaobai of the Phaseless Sword Academy, and successfully realized the replication of this source.
Although the cost of copying is expensive, as long as they provide enough materials, they can make a drug that makes people instantly become kendo wizards.
This medicine has been simply verified - several bold Qinglian monks injected the medicine into the monkey used for the test, threw a wooden stick to the monkey, and then they were amazed to see an ordinary mountain and forest wild monkey, suddenly holding the wooden stick tightly, waving his claws and releasing a fierce sword qi!
It is simply an incredible sword qi, although it is faint and complicated, but there is no doubt that it is sword qi, it is a profound martial art that ordinary human martial artists can only master by spending ten or twenty years, refining their internal strength countless times, and comprehending the sword intent, even for immortal cultivators, it is also quite an excellent proof that they can release sword qi in the forging stage.
And this wild monkey was just injected with a medicine and rested for half a day.
In half a day, the medicine gave this monkey a miraculous kendo talent.
It's just a monkey, a potion!
This medicine was named Qinglian Kenshin by them to commemorate the unique achievements of Qinglian Academy in the field of kendo research.
The good news was sent to Wang Jiu as soon as possible, as if it was a clear proof of what Zhao Shenlu said before.
Human civilization can create miracles.
However, this miracle made Wang Jiu feel quite uncomfortable, as if there was a huge hidden danger hidden in it, so he also took Zhao Shenlu back to the Netherworld Coast as soon as possible.
Behind him was the Holy Sect Sect Master who had hurried in.
The sect master didn't realize that there might be something wrong with this miracle, but the discovery of the Qinglian scholars was too amazing, this was far beyond the scope of the Three Courtyards, but a feat that was enough to shake the pattern of the world. This Qinglian Sword Heart is likely to be a shortcut to the supreme realm of the Immortal Dao!
Although in many cases, the word shortcut is often given such and such negative meanings, as if taking a shortcut is cheating, and it will inevitably suffer bad luck, but in fact, the progress of human civilization relies on countless shortcuts.
Compared with primitive slash-and-burn farming, more favorable agricultural tools and more fertile soil are undoubtedly shortcuts to a good harvest. Compared with the superficial method of spitting, the superior immortal method from the family sect is undoubtedly also a shortcut.
But any reasonable person will know what to choose between bumpy and shortcut.
Humans are far from being perfect creatures, and there may never be truly perfect creatures in the world - the one who was once regarded as the closest to perfection was the Great Demon God Emperor, but the Demon Emperor also died under the blade of the Outer Heaven Divine Sword. So if you want to get a perfect result with imperfect talent, you can only take shortcuts.
The history of human civilization is a history of constantly discovering shortcuts and passing shortcuts, and every major revolution in civilization is led by a new shortcut.
Now, the discovery of this drug, called Qinglian Kenshin, may well be a shortcut to the next revolution. It is related to the pattern of the world, and the suzerain must be present in person.
When the group arrived at the Netherworld, it was just the beginning of the carnival feast of the Qinglian scholars.
From a long distance, the hustle and bustle on the beach was clearly discernible, and when Wang Jiu and Zhao Shenlu walked down Sendai, a sharp-eyed academy monk immediately turned his head to see it, and then raised his hand and shouted happily:
"Look, the dean and the dean's wife are here!"
The word Mrs. Dean directly made Zhao Shenlu's originally tense face bloom with a bright smile.
"These idiots are still quite sensible...... Go over and take a look. After speaking, he took Wang Jiu to take the initiative to step forward, took the wine jug handed by a drunk monk without mind, drank most of the jug happily, and then asked in a voice that was not drunk at all.
"The success of a monkey is not worth celebrating with such fanfare, are you?"
This sentence suddenly cooled down the atmosphere of the scene, which was close to carnival. Several monks who took the lead in drinking and dancing also put down their wine glasses when they heard this, and walked over with some sneer.
"Well, we do make our own decisions...... But the result is good after all. ”
Zhao Shenlu sneered: "The result is good, so you can not care about the process?" When did Qinglian Academy become such an unstylish place? ”
Which is more important, process or outcome? This kind of question is meaningless for researchers, because both are equally important, and it is a gambler to only look at the results and not the process.
In the face of Zhao Shenlu's criticism, the Qinglian monks were speechless, and the festive atmosphere was swept away.
Fortunately, behind Zhao Shenlu, is there still a sect master who is following him, the old man coughed and said: "Let's take a look at the results first, I believe that if there are no particularly outstanding results, the Qinglian people, who have always been rigorous, will not hold a celebration banquet with such fanfare." ”
It turned out that the suzerain's round was not in vain.
These Qinglian monks did indeed make a surprise to themselves, and then they held a celebration banquet in advance regardless of the procedure, because it was really outstanding.
——
"The success achieved in the monkey completely exceeded expectations, after injecting the No. 1 reagent, the sample's kendo adaptability was improved by more than 10,000 times, and there were no side effects, the sample directly passed the 8 difficulties we designed for it, with a wooden stick it showed quite exquisite kendo cultivation, the effect of the heart of the green lotus, really far exceeded any of our expectations, and under such a positive result...... We couldn't hold back and started experimenting more radically. ”
Hearing this, Zhao Shenlu shrugged his shoulders and no longer scolded these Qinglian people who did their own thing.
Everyone who engages in research is actually gambling.
No one knows if their experiment will be successful – if they know in advance, there is no need to experiment – or even confirm that their research is in the right direction, and in a completely unknown world, researchers often have to rely on intuition to determine the way forward, so many times, for those who are at the forefront, imagination is more important than logical analysis.
And the monks of Qinglian Academy are like miracle children who have won more than ten consecutive studs in a casino.
Initially, the active ingredient was extracted from the deep-sea sample, and this step was divided into five steps, from the first step, the immortal cultivators were ready for a protracted battle, and the first draft of the test plan they designed was just a stone throwing in the dark world to ask for directions, no one really thought that this experiment could be successful, but whether it succeeded or failed, it was enough to have feedback.
Then they succeeded, one successful after another, and all the experiments were successful in one go, and they easily separated the nameless and intangible substance from the seawater that had a strong affinity for living things, and stored it in the ideal carrier. After that, they tried to multiply the nameless substance, and succeeded again, even the first biological experiment.
At this point, there is no one who can stop the radicalization of researchers, because too many victories can be regarded as a law in itself, and it is irrational to slow down on oneself before the real setback of failure.
"So...... Last night, we had a ...... "The Qinglian monk in charge of the explanation, his voice also became dry, because in retrospect, that step was a bit too bold.
Zhao Shenlu asked, "What did you do?" Unsheltered Assembly? Or worse, you went straight to the human trial without consulting the dean? ”
"We ...... At the time, we all felt that there must be a special reason for this series of incredible successes, and it was difficult to last, so in order not to waste the opportunity, we went straight to human trials. ”
The sect master gasped when he heard this.
Human trials are not unusual, and most of the drugs that need to be injected into the human body need to undergo a considerable degree of testing before they are fully adopted to ensure that there are no serious side effects.
But human trials must be taken seriously, from the recruitment of volunteers, to the planning of each step of the experiment, to the final aftermath measures, the slightest mistake can lead to a humanitarian catastrophe...... It should be said that every researcher of the righteous path should be clear about this question, but there are some bottom lines that are absolutely not allowed to be crossed, and if they go over, they will become evil and crooked, and no matter how rich the research results are, they will be irretrievable.
"We also know that human trials are important, so ...... We are on our own. When the Qinglian scholar said this, he straightened up, "We have not violated any morals and ethics, and we will not let go of this kind of God-given opportunity that is very important, so we took the initiative to draw lots to select two volunteers - don't get me wrong, the lottery is because there are too many people who signed up - to conduct human trials, and the results of the experiments were as successful as ever." ”
The sect master pondered for a long time, but still sighed and shook his head.
Ethics and morality, not explained in this way, cannot be denied because they themselves stepped forward as volunteers, and the recklessness of this pilot program cannot be denied, but in any case, since the results are now available, let's see the results first.
Look at what these Qinglian scholars have come up with desperately, is it worth it for them to break so many rules?
