502 Lich War, both sides lose
Time flies, the Yuan Shi Tianzun founded the exposition of the teachings has passed three eons, the twelve golden immortals of the exposition of the teachings in the Kunlun Mountains practiced hard, and the five people appeared in the flood wilderness, so after a heated discussion in the flood wilderness, the matter of the twelve golden immortals was slowly no longer discussed.
On this day, the Jade Emperor of Heavenly Court seemed to sense something on a whim and quietly left Heavenly Court.
Houtu left Heaven and appeared on a high mountain in the wilderness.
Houtu stood on the top of the mountain, and saw that there were two armies fighting at the foot of the mountain, one of which was a small one, with seventy or eighty thousand warriors, and the other with a large number of people was the demon clan, with millions of people.
The two armies were each fighting hard under the leadership of a true immortal, and the two leading true immortals were also fighting together, and with the way of the two of them, they didn't even know that one person was looking at them.
Although the number of the Wu clan army is small, the individual combat strength is outstanding, and after a hard battle, the demon clan is finally defeated by dozens of times the number of its own.
This is also in line with the routine of the Lich Wars.
Although the number of the Wu clan is not as good as that of the demon clan, the Wu clan was born with the strength of the Divine Realm Yuan Infancy, and once he reaches adulthood and has a strong divine soul, he can be promoted to the middle level of the Divine Realm out of body realm. In addition, on the earth, the Wu clan can absorb the turbid qi of the earth at any time to replenish mana, so an ordinary Wu clan can also compete with the demon royal clan. Above the transformation realm, in addition to the royal bloodline, only those demon clans who have awakened the bloodline of the flood desolation can match it.
Although the demon clan has a large population, it is the elite of the demon clan that can cultivate to the god realm, and among them, the royal family and the royal family are only less than one percent. Therefore, the normal combat power comparison of an adult witch clan is equivalent to two ordinary demon clans of the same rank or fifty upper-level demons in the Dan realm.
This small-scale war between the witch and demon clans ended with the defeat of the demon clan, and the demon army retreated under the leadership of the true immortal demon, and the witch clan launched a pursuit of the demon clan after hastily cleaning up the battlefield.
After the two troops retreated, Houtu appeared in the battlefield, she slowly walked on the battlefield, only to see that the battlefield was full of corpses, all of them were demon clans, these demon corpses, and without exception were disemboweled, dug up the demon pill, and cut off the teeth, horns, claws and other valuable materials.
Looking at it, these corpses are all Dan realm demons, this is not to say that there are no demon clans and witch clans above the god realm who died in the war, but the corpses of those big demons and witch clans were all taken away by the witch clan with storage magic weapons, and the corpses of the witch clan were taken away because they wanted to send the corpses back to the witch temple for cremation and let them return to the earth, and the corpses of the demon clans above the god realm are the best materials for refining magic weapons and pills.
Houtu sighed, since she inherited the Jade Emperor, the war between the two lich clans has not stopped, after Houtu took thunderous means to kill the three quasi-saints such as gluttony, although the large-scale war between the two clans no longer happens, but the small and medium-sized war has never been broken.
Although most of these wars ended in the victory of the Wu Clan, Houtu knew that the Wu Clan won the war and lost the future.
For the demon clan, even if there is no war with the witch clan, the demon clan will die in the civil war every day by hundreds of millions, and the lich war, but the demon clan will use these demons who would have died in the civil war to consume the witch clan's living power.
In the era of Emperor Jun's rule, not to mention this kind of war involving millions of Dan Realms at every turn, even the wars in which 100,000 Dan Realms participated were only a handful. It was during the reign of Emperor Jun that the power of the two Lich clans reached their peak, and the demon clan had dozens of quasi-saints, more than 800 Da Luo, as well as ten times the Taiyi of Da Luo and a hundred times the true immortals, as for the demon clan below the transformation realm, it was even more innumerable. And the power of the Wu clan is not weak, and the clansmen who reach the Taiyi realm during the out-of-body period have reached one-tenth of the same realm of the demon clan.
With the expansion of the power of the Wu Clan, the ancestors and great witches of the Wu Clan felt that the Wu Clan should have territory and interests that were in line with the strength of the Wu Clan.
The ordinary people of the Wu clan have the strength of the middle level of the god realm, which is equivalent to the middle level of the demon race, and with the strong combat power of the Wu clan on the earth, they have one-tenth of the population of the demon clan (calculated by the middle level of the demon clan), which is at least equivalent to two to three percent of the strength of the demon clan.
In the eyes of the Wu Clan, the Flood Wilderness is respected by the strong, and since the real strength of the Wu Clan has reached about a quarter of the Demon Clan, it should have the corresponding territory, rather than being limited to the northern part of the Flood Wilderness.
It was under the encouragement of this idea that Houtu had the idea of competing for the Jade Emperor, and Houtu hoped to divide the territory and interests in the name of Heavenly Court orthodoxy.
But after Houtu became the Jade Emperor, he found that the Wu clan thought about the problem too simply.
But how can the demon clan, who is the protagonist of heaven and earth, allow the demon clan to encroach on their own interests, let alone give up a part of the territory, and even the inheritance of the Jade Emperor by Houtu is regarded by the demon clan as their core interests.
Thus, the war between witches and demons began.
At the beginning, the demon clan made the mistake of underestimating the enemy, and one could force the Wu clan to bow his head with the power of the three quasi-saints such as gluttony, but the battle of cutting the sky made the demon clan realize the power of the Wu clan.
Although the Three Saints failed to defeat the sky, this does not mean that the demon clan will admit defeat, but let the demon clan really regard the witch clan as an opponent, and the demon clan used one of their most powerful trump cards, just like they did against the god clan back then.
This card is cannon fodder.
Attacking the Wu Clan, the Demon Clan no longer uses the power of the quasi-saint level, even Da Luo rarely dispatches, and the Demon Clan dispatches all cannon fodder who has no hope of immortality.
Yes, with the power of the demon clan, only the descendants of the heavenly immortal qualifications have the value of cultivation, and if they are not immortals, even if they are Taiyi scattered immortals, they are just cannon fodder.
Fighting against the elite of the Wu clan with cannon fodder, the demon clan naturally loses more and wins less, but the demon clan doesn't care, because the demon clan can afford it.
The war between the two Lich clans is very similar to the reproduction of the war between the gods and demons, the Wu clan continues to win in local wars, but under the continuous attack of the demon clan, the Wu clan has no time to transform the victory into racial heritage, and the overall strength is slowly consumed in the high-intensity war.
Now the number of Wu clansmen has decreased by almost thirty percent compared to the peak of the Emperor Jun period. Although these Wu people who died in battle are not the elite of the Wu clan, the real foundation of a race is precisely these ordinary people who occupy the vast majority.
The strength of the Wu clan was weakened, and the cannon fodder tactics of the demon clan succeeded, but the demon clan found that they actually didn't make any sweetness.
In fact, not only the strength of the Wu clan has been lost, but the strength of the demon clan has also been weakened.
The demon clan is a race that grew up in the civil war, from the perspective of luck, luck is the luck of aura, every spiritual land has luck, the aura of the spiritual land is absorbed by the monk, and the luck is obtained, the more aura the monk absorbs, the stronger the strength, the more luck. And the fight between monks is actually a process of gathering luck. Under the accumulation of luck, one or more true immortals can be produced, and even Taiyi and Da Luo are possible.
It is precisely because the demon race is a race that grows up in war, so the demon race has never been afraid of war, and the war between gods and demons back then is an example.
However, the Wu clan is not a god race, and the demon race cannot use the routine of dealing with the god clan during the war of gods and demons to deal with the Wu clan.
The Protoss was defeated in the War of Gods and Demons, because the Demon Clan used a large number of low-level cannon fodder to consume the Protoss soldiers, and the Demon Clan wanted to apply this tactic to the Wu Clan, but the Wu Clan and the Protoss were different.
During the war between gods and demons, the Protoss only had a million people, and in the face of the sea of cannon fodder of the Demon Clan, even if the Protoss had the strategic depth of the eight divine kingdoms, they could not hide their whereabouts, and could only be divided and surrounded by the Demon Clan, and each one was broken.
The Wu clan has hundreds of millions of people, distributed in thousands of witch domains, the demon clan wants to divide and surround the Wu clan, it is really not enough, so the strength of the Wu clan has been attenuated by nearly thirty percent, and the loss of the demon clan is more than ten times that of the Wu clan, even if the loss is cannon fodder, but the overall strength of the demon clan has also weakened by about one percent.
The demon clan was also puzzled by this, and only Yuan Shi understood the reason.
In the eyes of the leaders of the two Lich clans, small and medium-sized wars are just relative to the strong ones of them, medium-sized wars refer to wars involving Daluo-level powerhouses, and small wars are wars involving powerhouses in the Taiyi Realm.
However, for the Wu clan, a witch in the realm is the pillar of a small clan, and the fall of a witch in the realm may mean the demise or decline of a clan. For the demon clan, killing a little demon in the Dan Realm means that a mountain peak has lost its lord, and a clan has lost its patriarch, and at least thousands of living beings will be implicated and caught in the flames of war.
For example, with the participation of millions of Dan Realm demon clans, it will at least affect the fate of thousands of mountain ranges and billions of living beings. If a civil war breaks out among the creatures of these mountains, after the tempering of the war, the luck will converge on the victors of the war, thus producing more strong people.
However, because of the defeat of the demon clan in the Lich War, part of the luck produced by these mountains was taken away by the witch.
And the Wu clan did not have time to convert the seized luck into strength, many Wu clans were killed by other demon clans after killing a large number of demon clans, so these luck will eventually precipitate between heaven and earth, and at the end of the era, they will give back to heaven and earth, and be divided between the lord of the era and a group of powerful people.
For the Lich Clan, the war between the two races may be able to create some Da Luo or quasi-saints, but the number of ordinary people who are the foundation of the two races continues to decrease, and this kind of behavior of creating strong people at the cost of weakening the foundation of the race is essentially drinking water to quench thirst.
Therefore, Yuan Shi commented on the war: "Forgetting the war will be dangerous, the good war will die, the small war will prosper the country, and the big war will destroy the family." ”
Houtu didn't know Yuan Shi's judgment, and she only saw the countless creatures of the two lich clans suffering bad luck because of the war between the two clans, and her heart was sad.
