Chapter 30: The Past of the Goddess
"The Dire clan has a similar population structure to the ants, and the high-level Dire is the equivalent of the ant queen, they generally do not move, and they are all fed by their mid- and low-level Dire. After the high-level Dire evolved to the King-level Dire, it has extremely high intelligence and is more free to move, and only one King-level Dire can be born out of a hundred King-level Dire, and only a hundred King-level Dires can give birth to a Monarch-level Dire. ”
"The Corpse Emperor himself was only a Maharaja-level Dire, and there were about eighteen Maharaja-level Dires in my time, most of whom fell in battle. My abilities are very restrained against Maharaja Dire, and three or four Maharaja Dire are no match for me. Dires as strong as the Maharaja are also spirit creatures, and they still need to cling to the corpses of other creatures to exert their maximum strength.
And the Corpse Emperor found the corpse of an ancient powerhouse out of nowhere, and that inhuman corpse made its strength qualitatively changed, and it was no longer afraid of the sun, so I greatly reduced its restraint. In a one-on-one fight, I will not be its opponent, when I had the assistance of the Four Elephant Venerables, they temporarily entangled the Corpse Emperor, I used the forbidden secret technique, and sealed it at the cost of my own life. The goddess of Tongming talked about the great war of the past.
"Venerable Four Elephants? Are they still alive? Zhan Yue asked curiously.
"I don't know, the war hasn't ended since I died, but it's unlikely that I'll be alive. The longevity of the mystic is five hundred, the longevity of the spirit god is one thousand, and the true realm above the spirit god is only three thousand. Now, more than 3,000 years have passed, and if they don't have a special adventure, they are afraid that they will be dead. The goddess replied.
Zhan Yue continued to ask: "Then there is no such thing as immortality in this world?" ”
"No, there are similar records in ancient books, but none of them can be trusted. There are a lot of evil methods to prolong life, once I accepted nine disciples with extraordinary potential, they were all war orphans, under my teaching, they all finally advanced to the spirit god realm, known as the Nine Stars in the outside world. One of the bad guys got an evil skill that could greatly extend his lifespan, but that evil skill actually required a large number of human spirit beads. For this reason, he did not hesitate to set a trap, cut off the news, and let a city of 300,000 people gradually fall to the Dire, he hid behind and harvested little by little, and obtained 300,000 spirit beads. ”
The goddess of Tongming recalled this past, and there was still indescribable sadness in her tone.
"Later, I found out the truth, executed him with my own hands, and completely erased the evil deeds......
"No wonder." Zhan Yue remembered that Cheng Lu had said before that the only ultimate prohibition issued by the goddess of Tongming herself, anyone who secretly possessed or used the human spirit bead for other purposes would be punished with capital punishment.
Why is there no such thing in the books? Nine Bright Stars.... Maybe they still have descendants. Zhan Yue also sighed a little, cultivating the orphan from an ordinary child to a master of the Spirit God Realm, the Tongming Goddess must have used a lot of effort and a lot of thought, but in the end, she was not allowed to execute one of them with her own hands.
"Probably because that person is my disciple, they are afraid of my reputation, so they don't disclose this matter to the public. No one is not afraid of death, and if this evil deed is allowed to spread, I am afraid that there will be more than one rebel in the world. At that time, people will be more terrible than Dire. The goddess of Tongming sighed with emotion that immortality is a great temptation for anyone, especially those who are about to run out of oil.
"But there are still people like my sister in the world, who would rather sacrifice their lives than seal the Corpse Emperor." Zhan Yue said with heartfelt emotion, no wonder people in later generations worship her as a god.
The goddess of Tongming smiled bitterly and was silent for a long time, but she didn't know whether she should say something or not, and then she still said to Zhanyue, after all, she had nothing to care about when she lived again.
"I'm not as noble as you think, the reason why I'm willing to sacrifice my life to seal the Corpse Emperor is that there is really no other way to deal with the Corpse Emperor; The second is that I am too tired and want to escape. ”
Zhan Yue was stunned when she heard this, and there was an unexpected gain.
"What saddened me the most about the Great War was not the strength and ruthlessness of the Dire, it was their biological instinct, it was the battle between two races, so I didn't actually have a grudge against the Dire, you can blame the wolf for eating your sheep, but you can't complain about why the wolf eats meat and not grass. And the despicability of the human heart makes me really sad, I am in a high position, I have access to a lot of information, even in the face of extremely dangerous situations, they still have to calculate each other, use each other; Even I was pushed forward in the name of a goddess, how much of their respect was true? Until I found out about the rebel, I was tired after all, and I didn't know what I was trying to protect. Why did even my closest disciples become like this? So in the final decisive battle, I am bent on death, and after I die, it is no longer my business to toss and toss how they like. For the first time, the goddess confided her true thoughts to outsiders.
"That's why my sister said she was running away?" Zhan Yue was very distressed when she heard this. "But can you really put it down? The first thing you do when you wake up is to learn about history and investigate the current state of the Dire Clan yourself. ”
"I... I don't know, I'm obviously dead, but things are still endless, maybe my mission is not completed yet. The goddess said helplessly, she wanted to escape, and even begged for death, but three thousand years after her death, she came back to life in this state.
"The mission? I don't think so, maybe God feels sorry for my sister and lets my sister live a new life and enjoy the happiness that she didn't enjoy before? Zhan Yue said that he couldn't escape this matter.
"Will you be comforted and blessed? If you really want to be happy, you have to be able to take charge of it alone. The goddess of Tongming smiled.
"The sun is going down, and sure enough, I am only halfway up the mountain, and I am afraid that I will have to spend the night in the mountains and forests tonight. Fortunately, the ferocious spirit beasts around me were driven away by the roving generals, and I was not afraid of the Dire. Zhan Yue searched for a while, and finally found a mountain cliff, there was a gap similar to the entrance of the cave below, not deep, but it was enough for Rong Nai to lie down alone, he found some gravel and weeds, and blocked the small gap, so it was very secret. He didn't dare to sleep soundly, but he could sit cross-legged and cultivate and regain some energy at the same time, and he didn't think about improving his cultivation all the time.
The silence of the mountains and forests is terrible, there is not even the sound of insects, it is like a lifeless world, after all, the wolves, tigers and leopards have also been driven away. However, in the second half of the night, Zhan Yue actually heard two voices, so late, someone actually went up the mountain? This is not ordinary.
"Dingding, what should we do? Two days from now it will be the king's birthday, and if we don't satisfy the king, we'll be fed to the fish. A voice said.
"Dangdang, isn't it all your fault, what kind of wine do you want to make, can't you just steal this thing from humans? Hmph, what do you say you can show your loyalty, now it's okay, it's all burned out! Another voice grumbled.
"Can you blame me for this? How do I know which fire burned half the mountain and burned all the fruit wine we made? I thought that if we could both learn how to make wine, the king would look down on us a little bit, and we wouldn't be picking up garbage every day. ”
"It's the mandrill people, I didn't expect them to be extinct yet." Through the Sun God Stone, the goddess of Tongming can perceive many things around Zhanyue.
"Mandrills, aren't they afraid of Dire?" Zhan Yue said curiously, these two mandrills not only spoke human words, but there was no fear in their tones.
"Mandrills are not on the Dire diet, so they are generally not attacked by Dire. Legend has it that their ancestors did not die after eating a highly poisonous fruit, but left a breath in their bloodline spirits, which the Dire hated so much that they did not want to devour the spirits of the mandrills or take possession of their bodies. Mandrills have average strength and a generally low IQ, and they also know that they are easy to be deceived by their low IQ, so they are generally reluctant to communicate with the Terrans. ”
"It's good that they're not hungry ghosts who eat people, but how do they understand human language?" Zhan Yue's mind will not make any sound when communicating with the goddess through the divine stone, but it can only be said that this gem is omnipotent, and it is worthy of being the most cherished treasure of the goddess.
"I don't know, I don't know much about mandrills, mandrills were an extremely thin race thousands of years ago, their strength is average, the strongest in the race is not at the level of the mysterious, and they don't participate in the battle between the human race and the Dire, they are very difficult to reproduce, and they always feel that they are always on the verge of extinction, but I didn't expect to live until now. Compared to the dragons, who are the allies of mankind, they don't even have their names in the history books. The goddess explained.
"Dingding, do you smell anything?" One of them said.
"Uh-huh, it's the smell of people, what should I do? Whether we want to run or not, the king told us not to come into contact with humans. ”
"He's hiding under that crevice, sneaky, and he doesn't look good. Dangdang, I have an idea, let him go and help us find a bar, so that we can also give the king an errand. ”
"You deserve to be the smartest fool of the Mandrill Clan, no wonder the king praises you too, but what to do?"
"Hehe, we pretend to be a mountain god, and then let him bring wine to worship us, humans believe in this very much, I read it in the book."
"Wow, do you still understand human books?"
"Hehe, it's all villains, how can I not understand it."
Zhan Yue was speechless, can you discuss the strategy can you be quieter, and plot loudly here, I'm really afraid that I won't be able to hear it, no wonder the goddess said that their IQ is very low. But he also knew that this mandrill had a very sensitive sense of smell, and he had already been discovered.
