During the Battle of Thorns, the demon forces launched attacks on the Izumo Land from three directions: northeast, southeast and due east. The scale was so large that it even involved the human monks from Xianyuanhai and Tianxingzhou.
Fortunately, in this war, the cooperation between the various clans of the Monster Clan was not very good. There were still many situations where one clan was fighting life and death in the front, while the other clan was watching the fun from behind. Only then Let the human monks withstand the demon clan's first attack. At the same time, human monks gradually developed various skills on their path to immortality. The reason why alchemy, weapon refining, talisman making, formations, and beast control are collectively called the Five Arts of Immortal Cultivation is because these five skills were widely used in the war against the demon clan, and truly gave humans the power to fight against the demons. The ability of the demon clan.
After the Thorn-Severing War lasted for hundreds of years, the conflicts between the demon clans gradually emerged, and various groups, large and small, began to be wary of each other. This opportunity was also seized by the human monks. After several major counterattacks, humans regained a large amount of land occupied by the demon clan, and even pushed the battle line beyond the Land of Izumo in some places.
Facing the human counterattack, the demon clan united again. However, this alliance seems to have insufficient stamina, and it is just a matter of face and heart. In the next few hundred years, humans once again pushed the front line beyond the Land of Izumo, and the conflicts within the demon clan began to expand. The externals were retreating steadily, and there were many internal conflicts. In this way, the demon clan gradually retreated, and was finally completely defeated hundreds of years later, leaving behind some small ethnic groups and giving up a large area of land.
This land is called the Zhennan Land by humans, which means to suppress the southern demon clan, and the famous monk town Nancheng was established here. This war was also a tragic victory for the human side, and all major sects had to recuperate and lick their wounds. Therefore, there are not many sects from Tianxingzhou or Izumo behind the immortal cultivating forces in Zhennan.
After thousands of years of rest, humans are beginning to take action again. Although there was no human-monster war like the previous three wars, small wars began to increase gradually. Sects from the Zhennan area or casual cultivators from other human-controlled areas began to gradually encroach on the demon clan's land from north to east. The largest war that broke out during this period was called the War of Pingyi.
The land under Li Qingfeng's feet was the land captured by human monks after the Pingyi War, and was called the Land of Dongyi. It is located to the east of Xiaoshan Daze. It was ruled by the demon tribe more than a hundred years ago. There is no human habitation on it. The current population migrated later, so this place is called the Land of Dongyi.
The toad-shaped puppet beast Li Qingfeng found was at least fifty years old, and was probably a product of the Pingyi War.
But why is there a puppet beast here that is at least fifty years old?
Li Qingfeng struggled to turn the toad puppet over - it was very heavy, and Li Qingfeng relied on the power of water to flip it. After turning it over, he looked at the drive core located on the toad's abdomen, which was used to hold the spirit stones. Most puppet beasts are powered by spirit stones. The more advanced puppet beasts, the more advanced spirit stones they use.
The puppet beasts in the foundation-building stage use spiritual jade as driving energy. Compared with spiritual stones, the spiritual energy contained in spiritual jade has a higher capacity, is purer, contains fewer impurities, and is naturally less produced in the world of immortality. .
There is a long crack at the driving core of the toad's abdomen, and the spiritual jade inside is torn apart and pale in color. Obviously, this piece of spiritual jade has already exhausted its spiritual power. Next to it is a columnar indentation larger than an adult's hand. It seems that the toad puppet was hit by something columnar in the core of its abdomen, completely destroyed, and then abandoned here.
Li Qingfeng looked around and shook his head. Although he was involved in various arts in the world of immortality in his previous life, he knew almost nothing about puppet making. He could tell that the toad puppet was seriously damaged, but he decided to put it away and see if there would be a chance to find a puppet maker to repair it in the future.
He doesn't expect to completely repair the puppet. Even if it can only retain one-tenth of the puppet's former strength, it will be a huge gain for him. Taking a step back, even if the puppet has been completely damaged and cannot be repaired, its structure and remaining materials can still be used, which can be regarded as letting the puppet exert its last remaining heat.
Raising his hand to pick up a magic formula, Li Qingfeng put the toad puppet into his storage bag. The storage bag he used came from the deacon disciple of the Ghost Control Sect. The space was not small, with a foot square - this was already quite large for a monk in the Qi training period. Ordinary casual cultivators could not even afford it. When it comes to buying storage bags, even if you can afford them, they are mostly small storage bags that are a few feet square.
This puppet beast is quite large, six feet long and almost as tall as a person. That is to say, Li Qingfeng's storage bag is big enough. Otherwise, if it were replaced by Li Qingqing's small storage bag that is less than five feet square, I'm afraid he would have to carry this puppet beast out by himself.
No, the passage at the bottom of the pool is not big enough for this toad to pass through.
With a pinch of the magic formula, Li Qingfeng flew into the air, his consciousness dispersed, and he didn't feel the slightest trace of the beast's activity. He stayed here for such a long time and made a lot of noise going back and forth. He didn't think that the unintelligent monsters could hold back and not attack him.
However, the demonic energy and mixed spiritual energy in the air actually exist, so where did this demonic beast go?
Could it be the residual evil spirit from the corpse of a powerful monster?
A possibility popped into Li Qingfeng's mind.
He touched his chin and combined the broken toad puppet with the possibilities in his mind.
Many years ago, a powerful monk fought with a monster here. He used all his methods to finally kill the monster, but he was also seriously injured and died. The puppet beast was damaged in that battle. of. However, the power of the dead monster still remained, and no other beast dared to approach it, so its body remained here together with the monk. Finally, for some reason, it was buried by the mountain until today.
It is even very possible that the aftermath of this fight between man and beast caused changes in the mountain, which is why it is buried by the mountain to this day.
Li Qingfeng's eyes showed a hint of joy. This assumption was reasonable.
Immediately, he became serious again, with a little coldness in his eyes.
If you think according to this hypothesis, the monk will most likely use some secret technique to retain his soul, and when his body is discovered one day, he will take the opportunity to seize the discoverer and gain a new life.
You have to ask why Li Qingfeng is so familiar with this script? Because he had done this in his previous life.
