Chapter 400

~11 min read 2,123 words

Inside the small cave, Deng Yu Xiang was like an emotionless interrogation machine.

Both sides asked and answered, the scene still relatively flat, until Lu Ran heard a sentence and asked in shock:

"Cooperation? Human race and Evil Demons cooperating?"

"Yes! Yes!" Lady Luo nodded hurriedly.

Lu Ran was briefly speechless, trying hard to digest this shocking news.

In order to survive, in order to collect Holy Spirit Qi, everyone really uses every means possible...

The human camp and the Evil Demon camp have a blood feud!

For forty years, the harm Evil Demons have done to the human race cannot be explained in one or two sentences.

If not for the Gods descending to the world to turn the tide, the human race would probably have been exterminated!

The blood and tears of the human race have been flowing for decades; how can this pain, shame, and deep hatred be washed away?

But in the Holy Lingshan Realm, can humans and Evil Demons cooperate and coexist?

Lu Ran asked himself, he probably couldn't do this kind of bending and stretching.

He can be the master of Evil Demons, can enslave them.

But to collude with Evil Demon forces for the sake of the mission given by the Gods, living in a state of survival and moving forward together?

Are you kidding me!

Setting aside national justice and other levels, just talking about Lu Ran's own small family...

The Evil Demon clan has a blood feud with Lu Ran!

Deng Yu Xiang saw that Lu Ran's expression was wrong and patted his arm lightly, soothing him softly: "Sect Master."

"Hmm." Lu Ran came back to his senses, his expression still gloomy.

Since entering the Holy Lingshan, Lu Ran's cognition had been subjected to huge impacts one after another.

Deng Yu Xiang's voice was rarely gentle: "The Night Charm we just saw was very special; she should have considerable intelligence."

Lu Ran pondered: "This should be the foundation of human-demon collusion."

If Evil Demons fought mindlessly as soon as they saw humans, how could there be collusion?

Lady Luo hurriedly said: "The Evil Demons in the Holy Lingshan are qualitatively different from the Evil Demons invading the human world."

It could be seen that Lady Luo had completely surrendered, seemingly afraid of being ravaged again, she said hurriedly: "The Evil Demons in the Holy Lingshan should be like us, all here with missions!

The meaning of the existence of Evil Demons is to collect Holy Spirit Qi!

They will kill people, but they will also judge the situation, and their cruel nature is suppressed..."

"Boom rumble!!"

The sudden rumbling sound interrupted Lady Luo's words.

Even though Lu Ran was at the bottom of the canyon, inside the cave, he was startled by this earth-shattering sound.

Deng Yu Xiang's body tensed, and after a moment, she turned to look at the departed soul in the prison, saying coldly:

"What is going on in the sky?"

Lady Luo became more and more in state, saying ingratiatingly: "My lady, we believe that is the real God-Demon battlefield.

The Holy Spirit Qi we collect should be what falls from the God-Demon battlefield."

Deng Yu Xiang was expressionless: "Is that so."

Lady Luo confirmed: "Back to my lady, yes! We have already found the pattern!

Every time there is such a sound, about half a day later, Holy Spirit Qi will fall into the mountain."

"Half a day." Deng Yu Xiang was thoughtful, which matched up.

Yesterday, when she and Lu Ran first arrived in this realm, it was at sunset when they heard the movement in the sky.

The deafening sound lasted until late at night.

Lu Ran and she also saw the Holy Spirit Qi floating down in the sky for the first time this morning.

"We humans are truly humble." Lu Ran leaned his head against the stone wall, whispering.

That is to say, Gods and Demons are fighting in the sky.

The energy that spills out due to the battle between the two sides is left for the ants on the ground to collect?

Then, how to return the energy picked up to Lord God?

With the lives of the human race!

Using the souls of people after they die, to transport energy, wisp by wisp, to the Gods they piously worship.

Looking at it this way, the Evil Demon side is actually better.

At least the Evil Demon minions in the Holy Lingshan are just energy bodies made by the Evil Demon himself.

And the God camp purely takes the lives of human believers to recover Source Qi.

Moreover, the God camp is not very united internally.

Believers of various sects are not working together, but are snatching Holy Spirit Qi wildly, taking it back to offer to their own masters.

Or perhaps, the special situation in the Holy Lingshan was intended by the Gods?

If human believers didn't kill each other, how would people accelerate their death and turn into souls to return energy?

"Boom rumble!!"

Another earth-shattering sound.

In the huge sound wave, Deng Yu Xiang heard the whisper of the person beside her: "Life is like grass."

Yes, human life is like grass.

Deng Yu Xiang lowered her head, her eyes dim.

She had long known that the human race is just a slave to the Gods.

But after coming to this realm, she had a new understanding of the "humbleness" of the human race.

How much talent, piety, luck, and blood and tears does a person need to cultivate to the River Estuary Realm?

This person finally became a human expert, able to protect their hometown and shelter their compatriots within a piece of heaven and earth.

As a result...

In the eyes of the Gods, the greatest significance of such a person is nothing more than a worker ant.

Why?

Since Evil Demons can make minions, why can't the omnipotent Gods make energy bodies?

Even if they really can't, aren't there other ways?

Can't the Gods descend to the Holy Lingshan Realm and pick up the energy themselves?

Is the human soul really that delicious?

"Boom rumble!!"

The rumbling sound woke Deng Yu Xiang up.

She turned her head slightly, looking at the person beside her: "Lu Ran."

"Why are you calling my name again... what's wrong?" Lu Ran looked at the woman's serious expression and stopped dwelling on other things immediately.

Deng Yu Xiang said softly: "You said you wanted to slaughter all the Evil Demons and then pacify the disasters in the human world."

Lu Ran nodded.

Deng Yu Xiang took a deep breath, hesitated for a long time, and then said slowly:

"Do you think the Gods will allow you to do this?"

Lu Ran: "The Gods?"

Deng Yu Xiang nodded: "Have you ever thought about whether the Gods really want peace in the human world?"

Some things, it's not that she couldn't realize them, but the concepts instilled in her by education, family, school, society, etc., from childhood made her deliberately afraid to think deeply.

Lu Ran remained calm: "Why think so?"

When enough intelligence is collected and various signs are seen...

Those intelligent people will struggle and try to break free from the cage of thought.

Deng Yu Xiang lowered her eyelids and whispered: "Do you think the God-Demon battle in the sky is really a life-and-death struggle...

Or is it just a contest?"

"Why call it a contest?"

"Because of the result!" Deng Yu Xiang's voice grew softer, "Have you noticed? The result of the God-Demon battle is an overall weakening of the strength of the human race.

The true meaning of the God-Demon battle...

Is it a continuous harvest of human experts?"

Lu Ran's heart trembled, his eyes dim and unclear.

His attitude toward the Gods had always been disrespectful.

And the situation in the Holy Lingshan also made Deng Yu Xiang start to challenge the authority in her heart.

Facts have proven that once the seeds of doubt are planted, they naturally get out of control.

Lu Ran continued to listen, preparing to find a suitable opportunity to tell Deng Yu Xiang his philosophy.

Deng Yu Xiang was immersed in her own thoughts, pulling the topic very far: "Forty years ago, Evil Demons invaded the human world. After three months of bloody slaughter, the Gods descended.

At the most critical moment of life and death for the human race, the Gods came to be the saviors.

From that time on, everyone revered the Gods and treated them as the only life-saving straw."

Deng Yu Xiang tilted her body slightly, leaning against Lu Ran's shoulder.

This action was very uncommon.

She was always the proud and strong one, but for what she was about to say, she seemed to need a support?

"Since then, Evil Demons have invaded the human world on the fifteenth of every month, constantly reminding people, not allowing people to have any slack."

"The more cruel the Evil Demon camp is, the more revered and pious people are toward the Gods."

"Generation after generation, batch after batch of people poured into various sects, and in order to survive, they continuously offered faith power to the Gods."

"If there were no Evil Demons in the world, would the human race still be as eager as they are now, so pious and crazy toward the Gods?"

"So Lu Ran, tell me..."

Deng Yu Xiang turned her head: "If you want to slaughter demons, will the Gods allow it?"

Lu Ran also turned his head, looking at her complex eyes: "I thought you would ask me if Gods and Demons are in the same camp."

Deng Yu Xiang looked straight into Lu Ran's eyes: "All along, we just harbored faith or cherished fantasies. We were unwilling and dared not speculate.

But whether we admit it or not, objectively speaking, Gods and Demons are already in the same camp."

Evil Demons need the negative emotions of the human race.

Gods need the faith power of the human race.

Both camps, through the night of the fifteenth once a month, perfectly achieved this goal.

Whether Gods and Demons are enemies is another matter, but they are definitely partners.

"You, you guys..." Lady Luo looked at the two in a daze.

Decades of pious offerings made her feel that the young man and woman in front of her were so rebellious.

Not to mention that Lu Ran and his companion only sensed some signs and speculated wildly, even if there was ironclad evidence here, Lady Luo's fanatical faith in the Gods would make her willing to cover her eyes and block her ears.

The control of individuals or groups can have many means.

For example, binding at the emotional level, for example, binding at the interest level.

For another example, hmm.

People pray piously before the small God shrines day after day, having already washed themselves thoroughly.

"Hmph." Deng Yu Xiang closed her eyes in pain.

Wasn't she also a believer?

She was even a powerful River Estuary!

And the stronger a believer is, the more pious they naturally are, and the deeper their faith is...

If she hadn't already been expelled from the Lord Bei Feng faction, or even nearly had her life taken by Lord Lord Bei Feng, Deng Yu Xiang's heart at this moment would probably be even more struggling and a hundred times more painful!

"Boom rumble!!"

Lu Ran also leaned against the stone wall, already accustomed to the earth-shattering sound.

He followed the woman's train of thought, combined with his own ideas, and said softly: "So, the Holy Lingshan Realm is the burial ground for our human experts.

Gods and Demons will never allow the human race to have a day of success.

Humans cannot be strong enough to defeat Evil Demons, nor can they threaten the Gods; the status quo is not allowed to be changed.

So the God-Demon battle in the sky will never end.

As for the human world...

Evil Demons will also always invade the human world, and the human believers led by the Gods will never achieve victory.

Both God and Demon sides take what they need from the human race, sucking blood in big gulps.

And our human race can only live under the feet of Gods and Evil Demons for generations..."

Deng Yu Xiang lowered her head, following Lu Ran's words, and said softly:

"Slaves for generations."

"Slaves for generations." Lu Ran sighed deeply and closed his eyes silently.

Truth,

could it be like this?

"Boom rumble!"

The huge sound shook the world again.

And it was in this terrifying sound that a word imprinted deep in his mind flashed faintly:

"Do not lose yourself."

Begging for monthly tickets!
