Chapter Eighty-Four: Eight Innate Beings
"It's time to explain the common sense of the immortal cultivation world again." Shi Shan shook his head and slowly spoke, "Although the creatures in the world are diverse and strange, they can be roughly divided into eight categories: gods, demons, humans, demons, scales, feathers, spirits, and spirits. ”
"Except for the legendary gods and demons, the rest of the races still exist in the Tian Yuan Continent. When the forces of nature, such as wind, fire, thunder, and lightning, devour the power of other living beings, and the life that is conceived is called a spirit. After dead things such as earth, stone, gold, and jade absorb the power of nature, the life that is bred is called a monster. Both are creatures born from dead things, so they are called spirit monsters. ”
Mo Han said curiously: "You mean that the power of nature can actually devour other living beings? ”
"At first glance, it sounds a little incredible, but you only need to think about it to understand that this matter is not surprising. The most important reason why the creatures in the world can absorb the power of nature is that they have their own consciousness, and when they master the right way, they can devour the power of nature that is weaker than themselves. The reverse is also true, when the force of nature gives birth to autonomous consciousness, nature can also devour the weaker beings in the same or special way, so as to strengthen itself. ”
Mo Hansheng thought for a moment, nodded and said, "Why don't the eight great creatures you just said have an immortal clan, isn't the legendary immortal worthy of being ranked here?" ”
Shi Shan shook his head and said, "That's not the case, but immortals have never been a race. ”
"What does that mean?"
That's what it means literally. The word immortal is a character plus a mountain character, which originally meant to be a master who cultivated on the mountain. Immortals are cultivated by the human race, not some innate race, just like the ghosts in the netherworld are transformed by the living beings in the world after they die. ”
Speaking of this, Mo Hansheng couldn't help but be a little curious: "After death, do people really enter the underworld?" ”
Shi Shan rolled his eyes: "I haven't gone down again, how can I be sure that there is." But I think there should be, after all, there are indeed some monks in the immortal cultivation world who specialize in cultivating the way to ward off evil spirits. ”
Mo Hansheng thought for a while and asked, "No, I remember you said that all living beings in the world can become immortals except for gods and demons, why do you say that immortals are cultivated by the human race." ”
"Hmmm......"
Shi Shan groaned and said, "According to ancient records, I don't know how many thousands of years ago, the human race had four guardians with boundless power. They are the first four immortals in the world, known as the four great immortal ancestors, which is the origin of immortals. With the passage of time and historical changes, the creatures of other races began to compete to imitate the cultivation of the human race at some point, which led to the situation where a hundred flowers bloom and everything can become immortals. ”
Mo Hansheng asked again: "What are beasts like tigers, leopards, jackals, and so on?" ”
Shi Shan said: "The beasts in the world are actually degenerated from the demon race, since the human race can become immortals through cultivation, it is normal for the demon race to degenerate into beasts in the process of evolution. ”
Mo Hansheng couldn't help but exclaim: "I only know that all living beings in the world are pursuing survival and strength, but I don't know that there is such a thing as degradation?" ”
Shi Shan said: "This is not unusual, the legend of the early human race has the qualification of cultivating immortals, and today's mortals are actually due to the gradual dilution of the bloodline from generation to generation, which leads to the very few children with the qualification of cultivating immortals in the descendants, which is the same as the degradation of the demon race." ”
Mo Hansheng rubbed his chin and said, "It's not incomprehensible to say this, but how can the two scales and feathers be independent of the demon clan?" ”
Shi Shan frowned and said, "Although the human race has collectively called the cultivated creatures in the scale, feather, and beast clans as demons for convenience, these three are indeed their own independent existences. However, there are also rumors that the two tribes were originally a race in the earliest days, and even lived in the same area, but it is unknown whether it is true or not. ”
"One flying in the sky and the other swimming in the water, is it a race?"
Shi Shan shook his head: "Whatever, now is not the time to worry about this." ”
Mo Hansheng stared at the light group suspended in the box and said, "So this thing is actually a kind of spirit, not a spirit?" ”
"Only after absorbing the essence of heaven and earth from the genus of plants and trees can a spiritual creature be born that is spiritual. Since most of these creatures grow in the mountains and forests, after a long time, there will be false rumors in the mortal world and even among many scattered cultivators, and the demons living in the deep mountains and old forests are also regarded as one of the spirits, such as fox charms, bear spirits and the like. ”
As soon as Shi Shan's words were finished, he saw the two golden dots in the center of the originally motionless light cluster flickering twice: "Huh? This little thing is awake, be careful not to let it run. ”
The golden dot grunted in it, and the light suddenly rose upwards and was about to take off into the air.
A cold aura struck, and the icy aura instantly enveloped the light clusters, forcing it to fly back into the box.
Mo Hansheng quickly closed the wooden box and asked, "So, what is the purpose of this thing?" ”
"It has no other purpose than to help the monk in his practice. With this item, the monk's cultivation speed can be increased by at least 30%. If the quality is better, it is not impossible to increase it by four to fifty percent. Judging by the sluggish appearance of this Qi Ling, it should have only been born for a short time. But even so, it's a rare treasure. ”
"Increasing the speed of cultivation, that's the only way?" Mo Hansheng raised his eyebrows, as if he was a little disappointed.
Seeing Mo Hansheng's attitude, Shi Shan couldn't help but scold angrily: "What nonsense are you talking about, improving the speed of cultivation is what every monk dreams of......"
But halfway through the words, remembering the perverted speed at which he cultivated to the Qi Refining Realm overnight, Shi Shan decisively chose to shut up.
People are more popular than people, and it is self-inflicted humiliation to say more.
Mo Hansheng didn't know why it was like this suddenly, so he thought for a while and asked, "Can this thing be used by all monks?" ”
Shi Shan was a little sullen and said, "This is a Wood Walking Qi Spirit, which is most suitable for a monk with a Wood Walking Spirit Body. It's not that other spirit monks can't use it, but the effect will be much worse. ”
A sudden look appeared on Mo Hansheng's face.
Senior Brother He's Singing Wind Spirit Body was mutated from the wood system, so he would naturally flock to this thing.
He and the hunchbacked old man had already received the news before entering the valley, and they had come to Mu Xingqi Spirit from the beginning.
But I didn't want to meet the one-eyed man, and it was more coincidental that the goals of the two sides were the same.
The one-eyed man arrived first, and captured the Qi Spirit one step ahead of Senior Brother He.
But Senior Brother He naturally couldn't give up so easily, the two sides already had a lot of festivals before the Gorge Pass, and the new and old hatreds were added together, so there was the previous battle.
Mo Hansheng frowned and said, "But Mu Xing Qi Spirit shouldn't be very suitable for this one-eyed dragon, he has a Jin Xing Spirit Body, why does he care so much about this thing?" ”
Shi Shan pouted and said, "What's so strange about this? Even if you don't use this item for your own use, you can sell it for a very high price when you take it to Shennongtang or other places. ”
"That's not right." Mo Hansheng thought about it for a while, and then rejected this idea.
Although the one-eyed man was outwardly mad and bloodthirsty, and looked like an outlaw with his head resting on his trouser belt, Mo Hansheng felt that the more such a person was, the more he was willing to spare his life and be cautious.
If it weren't for that, how would he have survived to this day with his love of offending people?
Therefore, Mo Hansheng thought that the one-eyed man would not break into this dangerous place for a Qi spirit that was not compatible with him.
So what drove him to do this?
Mo Hansheng frowned, thought for a long time and suddenly asked, "You say, what kind of physique is that white deacon outside the canyon?" ”
When Shi Shan heard this, he also reacted a little: "What do you mean?" ”
