Chapter 263 The History of Monsters
The female demon cultivator stared at Song Jiulai for several seconds.
After a while, she licked her lips.
The bone cage carriage went away and the sight was cut off.
Their gaze did not attract anyone else's attention.
Song Jiulai saw that this female demon cultivator was not as panicked as other demon cultivators.
People around were talking excitedly.
"I heard that these demon cultivators are quite expensive."
"This batch is of such excellent quality. Have you seen their appearance? Each one is absolutely top-notch. They will definitely be sold at auction, and each one will fetch a sky-high price!"
"That blue butterfly with wings is so beautiful! If I could have a slave like that, it would be a lifetime gift!"
"I prefer the one from the Sky Leopard Clan. The demon cultivators from the Sky Leopard Clan are not easy to catch!"
"You wish! With your wealth and property, you don't even have the qualifications to take a look. If it weren't for a big city like Xuanwu City, ordinary sects wouldn't be able to catch it!"
Those slightly obscene voices of discussion can be heard at any time.
Song Jiulai bought some dried meat and touched the felt hat on his head.
She just bought this. After all, she just killed a few people and had to keep a low profile.
She walked through the talking crowd, and the noisy voices seemed to come from another world.
She walked so fast that the sounds could not catch up with her.
Her figure brought up a breeze, blowing past a girl in a white long dress.
The girl smelled a hint of fresh medicinal powder among the mixed scents.
The girl raised her head, and her beautiful face saw the carriage carrying the bone cage enter the huge basalt building and then disappear.
The voice murmured softly: "Huo Yuan, the God Ancestor did not bestow a gift upon you. This is your retribution."
After saying that, she lowered her head, turned around and disappeared from the crowd.
Song Jiulai sat on the flying magic weapon on the way back and murmured, "I used to think that the Wanxian Sect was just one of the five major sects, but now I think the Wanxian Sect is quite interesting."
System: "Because the Wanxian Sect has no slaves?"
"It's not easy to stand out in a world with strict class structures. If what the lady boss said just now is correct, then it means that it's a consensus that only the Wanxian Sect on the Yunzhou Continent has no slaves. Even our players haven't heard of any slaves."
Judging from the practices of Xuanwu City and the discussions of those people, slavery should be something that is only popular in large sects. After all, they implement strict rules based on appearance, and those who can be captured and used as slaves will not be simple demon cultivators.
People from small sects do not have the ability to access these things, but they more or less understand them.
She hadn't been in Longshuang Lake for long, so no one had mentioned this matter casually, but it just happened to happen today.
Only the Wanxian Sect has no information at all.
Either the players' activities are in too small a range to get much information.
Or the Wanxian Sect deliberately prevented small sects from coming into contact with these things.
Because the Feique Sect mentioned before that they were afraid of demon cultivators, killing them was the consensus.
But I have never heard of capturing demon cultivators as slaves.
The system proposed another perspective: "There may be another factor that small sects don't have slaves - the demon cultivators will retaliate."
After all, super large sects have enough power to protect them.
But small sects are not able to do that.
Any demon cultivator who infiltrates the human race would be fatal.
Song Jiulai nodded.
Through the information we have currently, the structure of the Yunzhou continent has begun to emerge, except for the monsters, which are too complicated.
To be honest, even the previous sacred beasts should be considered as demons in the Chinese people's cognition.
After all, there are too many Chinese mythological systems, and the ones on the Yunzhou Continent are even more complicated.
The Holy Beast is the Pro version of the Super Spirit Beast that exists outside the Yunzhou Continent.
It is said that the existing holy beast clan is only the descendants of the divine beast bloodline.
Those who have truly left the Yunzhou Continent, or perhaps left this world, are called divine beasts.
Including the Azure Dragon, Vermillion Bird, Black Tortoise and White Tiger, these are all confirmed to be disappeared mythical beasts.
They should be the first ancestor of divine beasts in the world of Yunzhou Continent.
That should be what the Chinese people know.
Spirit beasts are just beasts and cannot transform into human form, but they can revert to their ancestral form to a certain extent and possess the bloodline of sacred beasts.
The monsters are even worse off. Not only are they ugly, they also have nothing on either side.
Demon cultivators can transform into human form, but they do not have the unique advantage of holy beasts that they are born powerful. They must rely on overcoming tribulations to succeed in their cultivation. Like humans, it is more difficult, but also more powerful.
We learned from the secret realm that demon cultivators used to coexist with humans.
It has been proven that the Wing Sect is a sect of demon cultivators.
Forget about the Yi Sect, there is also the Wu Di Sect whose traces have been completely wiped out.
It's very subtle.
Song Jiulai was actually thinking about a lot of things in his mind.
But why is there such a big difference between spiritual beasts, demon beasts, and demon cultivators?
They are all monsters, so they definitely have these things in common.
"Evolution, different branches." Song Jiulai thought of a theory from Chinese society: "The bloodline left behind by the divine beasts evolved into different branches in different environments."
System: "That makes sense, but there's not enough evidence to prove they share the same ancestor, at least not in the current Yunzhou Continent. If they do, then the monsters are incredibly shameless. What kind of environment would allow them to evolve like that?"
"But they lived normally in the secret realm." Song Jiulai thought of the black blood lion that had been so majestic in the secret realm before.
As soon as I arrived in Yunzhou, I felt like I was poisoned.
"The demon beasts at that time looked similar to spirit beasts, but they belonged to different species."
After a while, the two people came to an unreliable conclusion at the same time.
Song Jiulai: "It's the air in Yunzhou that's poisonous."
System: "This air is poisonous."
Of course, it is wrong to say that the air is poisonous. After all, except for the monsters, everything else is normal.
They enjoy the same world.
However, Song Jiulai still insisted on a guess: "What if the demon beasts and spirit beasts are actually spirit beasts of different races, and the demon beasts' former race was cursed?"
There are curses and prohibitions on the Yunzhou Continent.
The system felt that what Song Jiu said made sense, and these guesses were not random thoughts. They were determined to become the number one sect, and the main storyline of the Yunzhou Continent would be slowly unearthed sooner or later.
System: "Such a cruel curse is not something that ordinary cultivators can create. To keep a species in this state for thousands of years, at least a group of Tribulation Crossing cultivators must have perished."
The Tribulation Crossing Stage is a concept that is completely unimaginable. It is the stage when a cultivator is only one step away from ascension.
It is still unknown how many people in the Tribulation Crossing Stage there are in Yunzhou Continent now.
A batch?
What is the concept?
Song Jiulai thought: "It seems that this secret super sect should have left some traces. The Wanxian Sect should be the most convenient for us."
System: "Look at what's happening right now. We can't even touch the corner of the clothes of the gatekeeper of the Wanxian Sect."
Song Jiulai tutted his words and suddenly thought, "Oh, by the way, after talking so much about my dried meat, I forgot to inform the players. Hurry up, I want the honey flavored one!"
