Before Venerable Moon Rabbit, Fang Ze had only come into contact with one Venerable Origin Bone. Therefore, he always believed that the Venerable should be the kind of hero who would sacrifice everything for his own race, be strong-willed, and unwilling to succumb to others.
However, after deeply understanding the experience and thoughts of the Venerable Yue Rabbit, Fang Ze realized: In fact... the Venerable is just a living being recognized by the entire race.
As for whether this recognition is based on virtue, contribution, coercion, deception, or hereditary family background, it is all possible.
This leads to the fact that the personalities of the Venerables are actually different - it is just that there are relatively more proud heroes and heroes like the Venerable Origin Bone.
So how can we find a master who is as easy to control as the Moon Rabbit Master? Fang Ze has also found the answer through subduing the Lord Moon Rabbit this time, that is: to find the dormant Lord.
Hibernation is a way for demigods to avoid the erosion of time, increase their longevity, and maintain their own character. The Venerable Shou Yuan and divine power are much more than other demigods. Therefore, the Venerable who is willing to fall into dormancy is either a Venerable like Venerable Yue Rabbit who "individual is greater than the race" and "his own interests are above all else", or else he is the kind of Venerable who has consumed more than half or even two-thirds of his lifespan. His Holiness.
Most of these two types of venerables are a bit greedy for life and afraid of death, and they all have different weaknesses. Relatively speaking, they are much easier to control than the venerable ones like Yuan Gu.
Therefore, Fang Ze felt that the method he originally thought of in a unique way to attack the dormant Lord was really a mistake.
He had a hunch that as long as he worked hard in this direction, he would soon have a group of usable lords under his command.
Thinking about the scene of 20 venerables lined up to guard the Spirit World Mountain, Fang Ze felt excited!
Thinking like this... He also sat on Venerable Yue Rabbit's big bed, and then carefully looked at the information and records of the next Venerable.
The next Venerable is named Venerable Blood Crocodile. He was born more than 60,000 years ago. He is considered a veteran Venerable in the world.
According to the inquiries of Flower God and Aunt Teng, this venerable man is suspected to have lost more than half of his lifespan, so he is in a long dormancy.
Unlike other demigods, when the Lord Blood Crocodile came to the outside world, he was actually very successful. He not only brought a large number of believers, but also brought thirteen demigod vassals.
But later, the thirteen demigods of the Blood Crocodile clan lost their lifespan one after another and became evil beings. In addition, the Lord Blood Crocodile did not understand management or business, and almost all of his followers died one after another.
It can be said that the Blood Crocodile clan has almost been exterminated except for him. He can only rely on the followers he recruited from the next few worlds to prop up his appearance.
But even so, as a veteran Venerable, because of his strong combat power, he still occupied a corner of Tianwaitian with the other two Venerables: Venerable Bloodwing and Venerable Bloodsource, and used the Venerable Domain to turn that area into one. Sea of Blood, and named Blood Prison.
The reason why the Blood Crocodile was the first one recommended by the Flower God and Aunt Teng to attack (the Moon Rabbit jumped in line because of a train) was because the Blood Crocodile prided himself on being powerful and did not take adequate defensive measures. tight. Many creatures have entered the Blood Crocodile Swamp, the area of the Lord Blood Crocodile, to hunt for treasures, but none of them alarmed the Lord. In addition, his followers are generally weak, so there is not much danger.
It can be said that Venerable Blood Crocodile is the easiest Venerable person to attack in Tianwaitian.
After sorting out the information about Lord Blood Crocodile, Fang Ze felt confident. After arranging the next development of the Moon Rabbit clan, he contacted the Flower God and then quietly left the Moon Rabbit Palace.
The disappearance of Lord Yue Rabbit and Fang Ze's departure did not have much impact on Yue Rabbit Palace. In other words, most Yue Rabbits did not know that their gods had been conquered by Fang Ze.
Only some sensitive Moon Rabbits have discovered that the atmosphere in the Moon Rabbit Palace seems to have quietly changed recently: the big shots at the top seem to have begun to allocate resources to the talented Moon Rabbits at the bottom.
However, this change is very weak and almost impossible to detect unless you observe carefully. Coupled with the incident that happened a while ago where the elite children and the lower-level Moon Rabbit soldiers were in conflict, even those careful Moon Rabbits just thought it was the senior management trying to appease people...
What they don't know is that most changes happen quietly...
.....
At the same time, after Fang Ze left the Moon Rabbit Palace, he also went to the location of the Venerable Blood Crocodile: the Blood Crocodile Swamp in the Blood Hell.
Arriving at the Blood Crocodile Swamp, Fang Ze found that there were many demigod vassals and disaster creatures sneaking around nearby. After catching a creature and questioning it, Fang Ze found out that the Blood Crocodile Swamp had been influenced by the domain of the Lord Blood Crocodile in recent decades and had produced many natural and earthly treasures.
There are Blood Ganoderma, Blood Bodhi, Blood Lotus, Blood Fruit, Blood Flesh Worm, etc...
In addition to improving your cultivation level, the most important thing about these heavenly and earthly treasures is... they are delicious!
In a place outside the territory where even fruits and vegetables are barren, these things that taste similar to vegetables and fruits and can also improve cultivation are truly priceless.
As long as you randomly dig up such a treasure of heaven and earth and offer it to the demigod of your own race, you can get a generous reward. Even if ordinary disaster creatures are accepted as peripheral believers, they no longer have to live in a stable place and may not have enough to eat.
Therefore, this also leads to many creatures coming here to see their luck.
Of course, because this place belongs to the territory of the Venerable Blood Crocodile after all, and there are followers of the Venerable Blood Crocodile patrolling here, so these creatures are extremely careful.
After figuring out the current situation in the Blood Crocodile Swamp, Fang Ze also began to implement his own plan based on his experience when he imprisoned Venerable Moon Rabbit.
He first used the [Darkness] ability to wander around the Blood Crocodile Swamp, looking for lone Blood Crocodile believers. After that, he quietly imprisoned the lone Blood Crocodile believer, and directly interrogated him with [Lie Rootless Vine] to understand the current situation of the Blood Crocodile believers, and finally became the Blood Crocodile believer whom he imprisoned. .
From the mouth of the lone Blood Crocodile believer, Fang Ze also learned about the current situation of the Blood Crocodile believers.
It’s pretty much what the flower god said. Venerable Blood Crocodile no longer has any followers of his clan. The current believers are all whom he later gathered from various worlds.
This resulted in the followers of Lord Blood Crocodile not only being divided into many factions, but also lacking in talent: each race was once the protagonist of the world, possessing the destiny of the world. And even if the world is destroyed, these fortunes will be scattered among the demigods and ordinary creatures of that race. Therefore, the more believers of the same race as the demigods, the more luck these believers can share, and the higher the probability of gifted descendants among the believers.
Like Lord Blood Crocodile, who gathers believers of various races. If believers of each race only have a little bit of racial luck, the probability of geniuses appearing will be much smaller.
In addition, different races cannot intermarry, and the number of offspring is rare, so the probability of geniuses appearing is even smaller.
If there are few geniuses, there will be few masters.
And the life span of this world is related to strength, so there are fewer and fewer followers of Lord Blood Crocodile.
According to the believer: Venerable Blood Crocodile has been in seclusion for 50 years, and now there are only a few dozen believers left. Most of them are new generation believers who have never seen Venerable Blood Crocodile and do not have much strength. There is only one person who is above the Heavenly Level, and there is no one who is at the Ultimate Level. It can be described as pitiful.
After understanding the current situation of the followers of the Lord Blood Crocodile, Fang Ze did not stop his pursuit of capturing the Lord Blood Crocodile. He continued to follow his previous successful experience and began to infiltrate the followers of the Lord Blood Crocodile.
Compared with the strict defense and strict levels of the Moon Rabbit Palace, the defense of the Lord Blood Crocodile is like a sieve. Fang Ze sneaked into the core area with almost no effort and replaced the only master who reached the heaven level. .
And from the mouth of this heavenly master, Fang Ze also learned more details about the Blood Crocodile Venerable.
According to the words of the master who ascended to the heaven level, Venerable Blood Crocodile is a demigod of the martial arts sect. He has strong combat power and rich combat experience. Even in the entire Tianwaitian, he is one of the top ten or top five existences.
However, he has a cruel temperament, is moody, likes to kill people, and also likes to eat blood. Even his followers will eat whatever they say if they disagree with him, which makes his followers afraid of him.
Moreover, Lord Blood Crocodile does not trust anyone. Even though this Heaven-level believer is his only high-level believer, he did not give this believer the management authority of Blood Crocodile Swamp when he was dormant. It's just a title - this is why the Blood Crocodile Swamp is so chaotic, but this believer can't do anything about it.
And this Heaven-level believer indeed shoulders the responsibility of helping Lord Blood Crocodile control the power of the law. However... the radius of the divine protective shield is at least eight meters, and there is a room in the middle. He cannot get close to and see the Lord Blood Crocodile at all. This makes such believers even more resentful.
So when Fang Ze interrogated him, he sold the Lord Blood Crocodile without any hesitation.
This made Fang Ze dumbfounded, and at the same time he had a better understanding of the venerable person he was about to conquer.
Immediately afterwards, after investigating the situation of Venerable Blood Crocodile, Fang Ze also began to implement the last step of his plan: taking Venerable Blood Crocodile into custody.
He transformed into a heavenly disciple of the Blood Crocodile Venerable, came to the temple where the Blood Crocodile Venerable was dormant, borrowed the power of faith and the power of law to mix and simulate the Blood Crocodile Venerable's divine power, and then like Just like the last time he broke through the divine protective layer of Lord Moon Rabbit, he went straight through the divine protective layer of Lord Blood Crocodile.
However... when he passed through the protective layer of divine power, Fang Ze felt something was wrong: because he didn't seem to sense the existence of divine power. That protective layer of divine power was like an empty shell?
With doubts, he came to the place where Lord Blood Crocodile lay.
It was a blood-colored throne. Lord Blood Crocodile was sitting on the throne, with his right hand supporting his forehead and his elbow on the armrest of the throne, as if he had fallen into a deep sleep.
Fang Ze turned into a burst of darkness and silently wandered to the side of the Blood Crocodile. Then, when the Blood Crocodile was not paying attention, he silently said "Admit Prison" and put the Blood Crocodile into the demigod prison!
After completing this most important step, Fang Ze finally felt relieved. He released the [Darkness] ability and transformed into Lord Blood Crocodile, just about to maintain the barrier. As a result...he discovered that the entire Blood Crocodile Swamp barrier actually operated independently and was not connected to "him" at all?
'Huh? very strange. Fang Ze hesitantly sat on the throne, wanting to feel the situation of Lord Blood Crocodile, but at this moment, he suddenly felt a bit of pain in his butt.
He raised his butt and took a look, only to find that there was a black leather book placed on the throne.
There were more question marks on Fang Ze's head: Does Venerable Blood Crocodile still have this hobby? Like to rub your butt?
Thinking like this, Fang Ze curiously picked up the black leather book, opened it and looked at it, and found that it was actually a diary written in divine script.
Divine writing is said to be "literary", but it is actually a mark formed by the condensation of thoughts by divine power. This kind of imprint can exist longer than most words and images in the world, so it is a common recording method used by demigods.
While thinking this, Fang Ze also tried to read this divine diary...
.....
Blood Crocodile Calendar Year 7819: The Blood Crocodile Clan was defeated, and I had to leave the world with the remaining members of the Blood Crocodile Clan and go outside the territory.
The demigods from outside the territory welcomed us very much and even held a large banquet to entertain us.
Some time ago, the two sides were sworn enemies, but after the Realm War, they became friends who could drink and talk, and comrades who destroyed the next world. It was full of ridicule.
I was so angry that I overturned the table and walked away with everyone. But the gods outside the realm just laughed.
Later, I learned from other venerables that many demigods who had defeated the world had the same reaction as me. But the gods outside the territory are still happy with it, because this is the glory that belongs to the victor.

One of them can fight against three venerables without losing. Unfortunately, they were outnumbered and captured. Although he is as brave as me, he is not as smart and forbearing as me. A reckless man.

Seeing the venerable person he knew, Fang Ze couldn't help but have a weird expression on his face.
But he also discovered the value of this diary: it was simply a treasure that recorded 80,000 years of history outside the territory. It will help Fang Ze and the human race understand the situation outside the territory and the sages born in these 80,000 years.
With this in mind, he continued to look down. What follows in the diary are all bits and pieces of Venerable Blood Crocodile’s life.
However, judging from the daily records of these records, Venerable Blood Crocodile is not like the image described by external rumors and his followers.
Fang Ze was a little curious and continued to look down with questions.
So, when he saw the Blood Crocodile calendar around 16,000 years ago, things suddenly changed...
