Chapter 1916: The Land of Purgatory
"Then you listen to me, if you are not satisfied, we have nothing to say, and we will go by ourselves when the time comes. When the female phoenix faced the demon phoenix, her voice instantly softened.
"Okay, then I'll listen. Demon Phoenix said.
"When I first gave birth to you, I originally wanted to personally protect you and wait for you to hatch. "But at that time, someone was beating me and your father's idea. ”
"Let's put it bluntly, it's the Relic Emperor Villa, they sent a lot of masters from the Relic Emperor Villa to round us up. The male phoenix said loudly.
"Shut you up, still talking?" the female phoenix shouted again.
The male phoenix snorted and stepped aside.
It was a silent protest.
It's a pity that both the female phoenix and the demon phoenix ignored it, which made it very depressed.
"Just like your father said, it was the people of the Relic Emperor's Villa back then. The female phoenix said.
"I don't really recognize you yet. Demon Phoenix said coldly.
"Well, like it just said. The female phoenix smiled slightly.
She knew that the demon phoenix was still angry, and she didn't care about it.
In her opinion, the more the Demon Phoenix is like this, the more it cares in its heart, how can family affection be broken?
"I've also heard about the Relic Emperor Villa, and it is said that they are proficient in raising divine beasts. The Demon Phoenix said, "Their idea of fighting the Divine Beast is also very likely. ”
"Yes, the people of the Relic Emperor Villa attach more importance to the interest of the Divine Beast than other Jianghu forces. The female phoenix said, "Back then, your father and I~~ and it were both adult phoenixes, even if they were not at their peak, they didn't think there were many people who could threaten us." Speaking of which, the two of us were careless, and our traces were exposed, so we were rounded up by the Relic Emperor Villa. I have to say that the strength of their human beings is far from being comparable to that of us divine beasts. Whether it's the number of masters, or the old guys of those humans don't die. Their strength is simply terrifying, and it is not something that our divine beasts can resist at all. Even if we can contend with it, our numbers are too small, and in the end, the only means of self-protection is to hide, once the traces are exposed, there is basically no good end. The female phoenix said, "In the end, we are no match for the Relic Emperor Villa, and in order to save you, we can only lead them away." In the end, he was defeated and fell into the hands of the Relic Emperor Villa. ”
"In other words, for the past thousand years, you have all been in the Relic Emperor Villa, and this time it was Huo Lian that old devil who brought you out?" the demon phoenix asked.
"It's not the Relic Emperor Villa, the torture we have suffered in the past thousand years is unimaginable. The female phoenix's voice became a little muffled, "That is one of the purgatory places of our divine beasts. ”
The demon phoenix could clearly feel the change in its mother's mood, and its voice softened a little, "What the hell is this place?"
"The sleeping place of those old fellows in the Demon Temple. The female phoenix said.
"The old fellow of the Demon Temple?" said the Demon Phoenix, a little puzzled.
"It's the Demon Hall Master of the past generations. The female phoenix said.
"What?!" Demon Phoenix was shocked when he heard this, "Aren't they all dead?
After the Demon Hall Lord disappeared, everyone in the rivers and lakes thought that he was dead.
Because even if he had gone into seclusion at that time, after such a long time, he would have died of old age.
"It's not right to say dead, it's not entirely right to say it's alive, it can only be said to be half-dead and half-alive. The female phoenix said, "In order to survive until now, they usually fall into a deep sleep. That is, in the millennium period of the Demon Palace, these old things will appear for a short period of time to help the new hall master sweep the world. ”
"I see!" muttered the Demon Phoenix.
It knows some of the secrets of the Demon Temple, and these things are simply incredible.
Thinking about it in this way, after the millennium period of the Demon Palace, it makes sense that the new hall master can sweep the world immediately after taking the throne.
Otherwise, even if the Demon Hall Master is invincible, he will not be able to deal with so many masters in the rivers and lakes.
Now there are more hall masters of those past dynasties, and I don't know how much more for the masters.
"Not only that, but in that sleeping place, there is also a hidden force in the Demon Temple, the 'Tomb Clan', and the masters among them will also make a move in the millennium period. The female phoenix said.
"Where is that place?" asked the Demon.
"I can't know where it is, I can only know that it's in the depths of the Misty Mountains. The female phoenix said.
"And where are you?" asked the Demon Phoenix in a low voice.
At the mention of this, the female phoenix couldn't help but show palpitations in the depths of her eyes.
"What's wrong?" the demon phoenix couldn't help but hurriedly shouted when he saw his mother's strange expression.
After the female phoenix came back to her senses, she took a deep breath and said, "I was a little distracted just now, but it was really a day there~~"
"Don't worry, take your time!" said the Demon Phoenix in a reassuring voice.
The Demon Phoenix itself was unaware that its name had changed.
"Hey, don't be in a hurry!" said the female phoenix with joy on her face.
She felt the change in the attitude of the demon phoenix immediately, and she felt the care of her child.
After calming down her mood for a while, the female phoenix continued: "Back then, we were sent to the Demon Hall by the people of the Emperor Villa, and the people of the Demon Palace sent us to that sleeping place. There, there is only one use for us divine beasts. ”
"What?" Demon Phoenix couldn't help but hold its breath, it knew in its heart that this would be an unacceptable result.
"Sacrifice!" said the female phoenix sadly, "We divine beasts are sacrifices, and our sole purpose is to use our essence blood to prolong the life of those sleeping old things. In exchange for the lives of our divine beasts, they can live until now. Once every thousand years, the divine beasts rotate in batches, and I don't know how many high-level divine beasts die there, consumed alive. ”
The Demon Phoenix's face was full of anger, and it could imagine that miserable situation.
Thousands of years of continuous consumption of essence blood, even high-level divine beasts can't stand it.
"Then you~~" The Demon Phoenix's heart trembled, and it remembered a frightening inference in its heart.
"We have been lucky enough to hold on for a thousand years, and even if we are still alive, we will also be used by the people of the tomb clan. From life to death, they have exploited us to the extreme, even if they die, the corpse must continue to be used by them, you should have seen the huge box next to Huo Lian just now, which contained the corpse of the divine beast, which should be the same batch of divine beasts as us back then, but they couldn't hold on, and went first, this is the sorrow of our divine beasts. The female phoenix said.
"I don't ask anything else, I want to ask about your lifespan?" the demon phoenix asked in a trembling voice of anticipation.
"What I just said is already very clear, do you have to let me say it?" the female phoenix shook her head and smiled bitterly, "Even if we were brought out by Huo Lian in advance, it's a pity that our lifespan is coming to an end, and the limit is approaching." ”
