Under Jiang You's constant rhetoric along the way, he finally got the most basic understanding of these demons. It turned out that when the demons were summoned to this world by the humans to deal with the demons, they were not as good at the humans as they seemed. Such trust. While fighting side by side with the humans, they secretly developed their own underground camp under the Cliff of Ten Thousand Corpses and raised humans in captivity as the foundation for their continuous expansion.
However, the actions of the demons were eventually discovered by the humans. Before the battle with the demons was completely over, the humans immediately launched a war against the demons.
Although the demons had expected this day to come, they didn't want it to happen so quickly. Without warning, the demons suffered heavy losses. The main altar was also breached, and only a small number of them with incomplete inheritance hid under the Cliff of Ten Thousand Corpses.
At that time, Dahua was led by the arrogant Emperor of China. Faced with the demon clan that could expand and spread at any time, he naturally wanted to avoid future troubles forever, so he led a heavy army to attack the Ten Thousand Corpses Cliff. But the result was as expected by everyone. The demons defeated the humans due to the advantage of the geographical location. Even the Chinese emperor was seriously injured and suffered from hidden diseases. He eventually fell because he could not break through.
According to common sense, the demons could have taken advantage of the victory to counterattack, and even if they could not defeat Dahua, they could still separate themselves. Unexpectedly, civil strife broke out in the demon clan. The two demons of heaven and earth, who were originally in charge of the demon clan's affairs, had a dispute, which finally triggered a civil strife. The earth demon died in this civil strife, and the demon's body was also seriously damaged and was rescued by a few cronies. .
As a result, the demon clan of Wanshiya was completely defeated, and Huashang, the second emperor of Dahua, also took the opportunity to lead his troops to attack Wanshiya again. This time, the Chinese merchants learned the lessons of their ancestors and did not enter the Cliff of Ten Thousand Corpses, but merely sealed it.
As a result, the demons have been imprisoned in Ten Thousand Corpses Cliff for thousands of years, and their strength has been greatly depleted due to the lack of support. Just when they thought they would never be able to stand up again, the seal was actually loosened decades ago, and people with low demonic nature also Slowly being able to move freely within this seal, and with the weakening of Tianmen's defense caused by Huo Qing's death, the demons seized the opportunity to launch this surprise attack.
Only then did Jiang You understand the cause of this catastrophe, but he didn't expect that Dahua would forget Wanzhiya, but it was not difficult to understand the outcome of Emperor Huashang.
Emperor Hua Shang's life can be divided into two extremes. In the first half, he was brilliant and wise, which once brought the country to unprecedented prosperity. However, in the second half, he felt that there was no hope of promotion, so he lived a life of intoxication and dreaming in the palace. During this period, he He doted on the demon queen and harmed loyal people. From the civil and military officials down to the common people, there were complaints. Finally, his brother Emperor Hua Zhou rebelled. The defeated Huashang Emperor was eventually reduced to ashes along with the imperial palace in the Sanwei True Fire.
This fire caused the loss of countless historical books in the palace, and the deaths of countless trusted ministers. Perhaps the records of Ten Thousand Corpses Cliff also disappeared here.
What makes Jiang You confused is that he heard that a Mahayana-level boss had entered Ten Thousand Corpses Cliff before, but nothing was found. Could it be that the demons hid in the depths at that time? After all, there is no spiritual energy in the cliff to replenish, so this Mahayana senior may be unable to display his full strength just like the original Huaxia Emperor.
Of course, what worries Jiang You the most is the seal that has been weakening. Now the Ten Thousand Corpses Cliff has reached the point where the Nascent Soul Demon Clan can come and go at will. If this continues, the Demon Clan of Transformation Gods, not to mention the Demon Tree in the county, will also have If these demons succeed in reducing the seal's ability, then the people in the royal tomb will die without a burial place.
It's a pity that Jiang You can't seem to do anything. The beast tide has been going on for nearly ten days. The court must have taken action. So Jiang You couldn't think about these impossible things. Since there were so many demons here, she might be able to take the opportunity to gather the other three demons.
But from Xueyu's words, Jiang You also knew that the Ten Thousand Corpse Cliff Demon Clan didn't have much inheritance. The Heavenly Demon ran away, the Earth Demon fell, and the inheritance of the Heart Demon and Fantasy Demon was lost. Among the five demons, only the Blood Demon was struggling to support them. The rest are mostly corpse demons with large numbers but average combat power and some unpopular demon species, and their bloodline is not very pure. Even the strongest combined blood demon is only a third-grade bloodline, let alone an ancestor-level existence.
Therefore, over the past thousands of years, the Ten Thousand Corpse Cliff Demon Clan has also been trying to perfect all the inheritance of the Demonic Way. This is also the opportunity for Jiang You to sneak into the Demon Clan, and she does not have to worry that the Demon Clan will covet the "Heart Demon Art" in her hand. .
The reason is a long story, let’s start with the inheritance of demons. Although there are many kinds of inheritance of demons, they are mainly divided into three categories. The first category is blood inheritance. Typical ones are heavenly demons and earthly demons. Such monsters are generally born with of. Of course, there are some special rare objects that can help living beings transform, but they are also extremely rare.
The second type is the infection type, and corpse demons are a good example. They can pass on the demon bloodline through killing, but the bloodline becomes scarcer and weaker towards the end.
The third type is the reproductive type. This type is dominated by low-end demons, such as trolls and night demons. They can only reproduce through reproduction, and they all have negative genes.
The fourth category is the evil-degenerated type, just like inner demons, phantom demons, etc. These demons were originally normal creatures, but they degenerated into demons with special abilities under special circumstances. However, this probability is also special. Even if certain conditions are met, the success rate is only one in ten thousand. The so-called evil way of falling can also be called the inheritance of the evil way, because having this experience of evil falling means that you have the opportunity to pass on this evil way. Go down.
But because the probability of this is extremely low, other demons generally do not covet other people's evil inheritance. After all, the price they have to pay is not something that ordinary people can bear.
However, hundreds of years ago, a man with great wisdom compiled the inner demon inheritance and cultivation experience he knew into a book called "The Secret of the Inner Demon". This was also a shortcut to cultivating the inner demon without having to pay the price in the real world. This is also the reason why the demon concubine has always wanted to get the "Inner Demon Secret" from Princess Zixiao.
But even if there is a shortcut, the person who is suitable for cultivation is still only one in ten thousand. If Jiang Yousheng's nature is not compatible with "Inner Demon Art", he would not be able to understand it. At the same time, he uses spiritual connection to bring Lin Xu up.
In fact, even Princess Zixiao has not fully understood the "Inner Demon Art", so she cannot be said to be a real inner demon, but even just some superficial knowledge gives her the ability to be immune to soul searching and remote clones. This is enough to show that "Heart Demon Secret" is against the heavens.
Precisely because the probability of evil fall and "Inner Demon Art" are the same, it is difficult for the demons to imagine that the legendary demon holy book is in Jiang You's hands. In fact, there are not many people who know about "Inner Demon Art". Just Princess Zixiao and a few confidants of Yao Fei.
In short, having the identity of the inner demon will not only cause no trouble, but will also be valued by the demons. This is much safer than the ancestor-level blood demon woman. After all, she has the strongest blood demon bloodline but can only practice Qi cultivation. The existence of Wei will definitely be coveted by many people.
This seems to be the case. Xueyu was extremely polite to him along the way. This was not just because of Lin Yan's beauty. Jiang You also felt along the way that Xueyu was indeed a lustful person, but he was also very measured and would not act recklessly to achieve his goals. This is very similar to Jiang You. After all, what normal and unhypocritical man doesn't like beautiful women?
Therefore, Jiang Youye acted relatively relaxed and asked Xueyu many questions along the way.
"Besides the blood demon and the corpse demon, I wonder how many demons there are here?" Jiang Youye finally asked the most critical question. Although she had thought about using the corpse demon to defeat him, there were other options. A good thing.
Xueyu replied without thinking: "Yes, there are, but they can't stand on the stage. Either their bloodline is too weak or their abilities are useless. What? Does Miss Lin want to practice other magic ways at the same time? I suggest you give up, after all, human beings Your energy and physique are limited, and practicing a skill already requires countless energy and resources. If you learn too much, you will lose more than you gain."
Jiang Youye naturally knew what Xueyu meant. After all, the magic power a demon cultivator could draw every day was limited. If this limited magic power was dispersed, it would be equivalent to slowing down the speed of cultivation. The essence of cultivation is a race against time, which is equivalent to seeking death.
However, cultivation is not a pure addition and subtraction. During the cultivation process, you will also encounter a bottleneck period. Since the cultivation effect during the bottleneck period is minimal, some people will also choose to practice other ways to find opportunities at this time, so there are no people who practice concurrently. A minority, but it is also a last resort under special circumstances.
The faint demonic energy emanating from Lin Xu's body is only the third and fourth levels of Qi training. Such cultivation is still far from the bottleneck period. There is no need to waste time on other demonic paths. After all, the inner demons are the five major demonic paths. one.
But Xueyu didn't know that there were exceptions in this world. One was the Heavenly Demon, which could integrate the inheritance and bloodline of all demons. The more demons she practiced, not only would it not affect her cultivation, but it would also make it stronger. As for the other one, Jiang You. Although she doesn't have the heaven-defying ability of the demon, she can also seal five demons in her body to help her practice.
But Jiang You didn't dare to say it clearly. She just explained: "After all, it's my first time here, so I want to get to know more about this place so that it will be easier to deal with in the future."
"It's better not to deal with him." Xueyu shook his head.
"Why?" Jiang You asked confused.
"This is a demonic realm, not a human world. This is a world where the weak can eat the strong. Everyone can only watch out and plot against each other. Especially when faced with inner demons like you, people will only be more wary, for fear of accidentally becoming your inner demon's slave, and even more so. I don’t dare to accept you as a blood slave, lest you use your spiritual connection to turn into an inner demon and sneak into their consciousness." Xueyu explained.
"Then you're not afraid?" Jiang You turned and asked.
"Why should I be afraid?" Xueyu smiled bitterly, "To be honest, I used to be a blood slave. Even if I transform into a blood demon now, everything about me is controlled by that person. If you can help me transform from This kind of liberation from the physical body is something I can’t ask for.”
Jiang You was also stunned. The inheritance of the blood demon is quite special. It not only reproduces through reproduction, but also can expand through infection like the corpse demon.
It's just that unlike corpse slaves who can turn into corpse demons as long as they give birth to spiritual intelligence, although blood slaves also have the possibility of becoming blood demons, the pain and torture they endure is not something ordinary people can bear, and only those who have a huge Only those with strong obsession can complete the transformation. It seems that this Xueyu is not as simple as it seems.
It's a pity that even if he becomes a corpse demon, Xueyu's life and death is still controlled by his master. Such a being is really not afraid of any inner demons. After all, there is nothing worse than having everything controlled by others.
"I'm sorry, I was abrupt." Jiang You apologized hastily.
"It's nothing." Xueyu said casually, "Fortunately, I am relatively weak, so he doesn't bother to care about me, so I still live a comfortable life."
"Then you don't hate him?" Jiang You asked again.
"There's nothing to hate." Xueyu shook his head and said, "After all, everyone was rushing to be a blood slave. Compared to those precarious slaves, the status of a blood slave is still very high."
Jiang You looked at the coolie-like slaves, but had to nod. If you look at it from the standpoint of these slaves, becoming a blood slave is not an accident. When people are in the most extreme conditions like them, what they want most is not some belief or ideal, but the simplest way to live well.
But once people solve the most basic survival problems, they will think more. It is obvious that Xueyu is not willing to accept the status quo, but is unable to resist. It is precisely because of this that she feels relieved when facing Lin Xu, the inner demon. a lot of.
