Chapter 773: Are They Hybrids?

Dongfang Li quickly retrieved the data from the Secret Treasury.

It is an extremely ancient tome, at least a thousand years old.

The tome has clearly been restored; its pages are now spread out and kept in a box.

Li Xueru only needed a glance to know that this tome predates even the history of the Shenlong Empire.

The history before the Shenlong Empire is incomplete.

Only the royal family retains a few records. Dongfang Li said, "The characters on these pages are very ancient, yet somewhat similar to those of our Shenlong Empire."

According to the tome, in ancient times this place experienced a world‑shaking great war.

Thus, the historical record has a gap. Everyone present has heard legends about that great war.

Some believe that the divine cut off and the spirits fell, seemingly all linked to that war.

Others think that the war never existed at all, a complete fabrication.

Unexpectedly, the royal family actually possesses records of that war.

Even a single scale or claw could prove the war's existence.

Dongfang Li said, "According to the records, one side of the war was a coalition of our Human Race and the divine spirits."

What!

Everyone was shocked, staring at Dongfang Li in disbelief.

Ning Tairan twitched the corner of his mouth and asked, "What about the other side? Abyss Demon or Dragon Race?"

Dongfang Li shook his head, "Unclear; the tome is severely damaged, and that segment of information is lost."

Ning Tairan let out a light sigh; it's unavoidable, given how ancient it is.

Li Xueru already suspected who the other side was: invaders from beyond the heavens.

Including this incident, it's most likely the same outsiders causing trouble.

Ning Tairan asked, "Does what happened then relate to our current situation?"

Dongfang Li said, "I was once obsessed with studying ancient history, having read countless records, and after applying my own judgment, I reached a conclusion."

"Back then, the Human Race referred only to us Shenxia people; there were no blond‑eyed foreigners."

Those words caused another gasp among the crowd.

Ye Chen Shi whispered, "I have heard similar sayings before, and the saying 'those of other races have different hearts' has been passed down from our ancestors."

"Our ancestors left such words for a reason."

Ning Tairan whispered, "According to you, if the Human Race consists only of our Shenxia people, where do those foreigners come from?" Dongfang Li shook his head, indicating he didn't know. He could not make a precise judgment. After pondering, Li Xueru slowly said, "These people likely come from Deep Space."

"You all must have visited Deep Space; there are many monsters we've never seen, completely different from those in our world."

"Among them are many Human-shaped Monsters."

Li Xueru originally wanted to say directly that they might have been created by outsiders.

But after thinking, he changed it to Deep Space, which is more acceptable.

Ning Tairan's expression grew extremely complex, "Are you saying those guys are hybrids?"

Shu Yao Shen slapped his thigh, "If that's the case, it all makes sense!"

Dongfang Li nodded, "That would also explain why only our ancestors could enter the Shenxia Ancient City."

"Whether they are people of other factions, Abyss Demons, or Dragon Race members, none can enter. "Perhaps the Shenxia Ancient City thinks that we Shenxia people

are the true legitimate Human Race, and the others are not Human."

Shu Yao Shen continued, "When I was testing medicines, I compared the blood of our Shenxia people with that of other nations, and the differences were indeed significant."

"Their blood contains some other elements,

very chaotic. Unlike the blood of our Shenxia people, which is pure and clean!"

"With the same Skill, our Shenxia people can achieve stronger effects than they can."

"The same medicine works better for our treatment than for them."

Everyone exchanged remarks, quickly reaching a conclusion on the matter.

Aside from the Shenxia people, those from other nations are not considered legitimate Human Race.

Their Bloodline has been polluted with impurities.

They have become Other Race. Antares let out a chuckle, "Pretty clever, you thought of it so quickly."

"What did you think of?" Jiang Chen's voice suddenly rang out.

Antares saw that Jiang Chen had already revived.

It has been more than a year since the last Law enlightenment; Jiang Chen is now enveloped in a faint aura of the Law, clearly having made substantial progress.

Antares said, "Something has happened within your tribe."

Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow, "What happened?" Antares replied, "A race called the Bloodline appeared over a thousand years ago within your Human Race, and now it is stirring."

Bloodline?

That doesn't sound good!

"Over a thousand years ago? Was that right after the great war when the Dragon Race and Abyss Demons arrived?"

Antares nodded, "More or less. They actually arrived earlier than the Dragon Race and Abyss, but their methods differ."

Regarding the Human Race, Jiang Chen, having no patience for idle questions, said directly, "Explain in detail!"

At Jiang Chen's request, Antares recounted the whole incident.

Jiang Chen then realized that among all the nations and races of the world, aside from the Shenxia people, everyone else is a pawn placed by the Bloodline.

The Bloodline obtained the Bloodline of Shenxia's strong ones, combined it with other Bloodlines, and using their unique methods, created a new human race.

Essentially, it is similar to the hybrid dragons of the Dragon Race.

These people have reproduced over generations, giving rise to a multitude of different races.

But no matter how it changes, they have borne the Blood Clan's mark from the root of their bloodline, destined to be the Blood Clan's slave pieces.

Originally they were in the Human World, the Blood Clan in Deep Space. The root cannot control its own pieces. The Human Race, protected by the power of the world, the Blood Clan press

Only this time, the Human Race launched a massive attack on the Dragon Clan World; the Dragon Clan World is merely a fragment world, and spatially it is closer to Deep Space.

The Blood Clan sensed their presence, and the pieces that had been stagnant for a thousand years began to move.

Jiang Chen said gravely, "In the end, the Blood Clan just wants to seize this world?"

Antares shook his head, "Exactly, the goal and the Abyss, the Dragon Race are the same."

To seize a world, one must annihilate the world's will.

And the existence of the world's will is very peculiar; the simplest method is to slaughter all native lifeforms.

The strongest among native lifeforms is the Human Race. As long as the Human Race can be wiped out, obtaining this world won't be too hard.

The Dragon Race used a hardline approach, a frontal assault, and ultimately failed.

The Blood Clan, however, employed a treacherous method, dismantling from within.

Antares chuckled, "Do you intend to act?"

Jiang Chen's strength has already surpassed that of the Human Race's

all the strong ones.

Moreover, Jiang Chen commands an Undead Army; if he acts, he can quickly settle this matter.

Jiang Chen thought for a moment, "Do nothing; this matter is a blessing rather than a disaster for the Human Race."

"Oh?" Antares seemed a bit strange.

Jiang Chen said, "They're just the Blood Clan's pieces; I trust the teacher can handle it. There may be casualties, but that's my point: the Human Race needs sharpness, needs to sharpen its Blade."

"The sharpened Blade isn't only for the Dragon Race demons; it must confront all kinds of enemies."

"If one day we truly reach the Great World, today's training can become a future life‑saving talisman."

Antares smiled; Jiang Chen has his own ideas, he values the Human Race, but he won't act as a caretaker.

To truly become stronger, one ultimately must rely on oneself. "In that case, let's watch the show," Jiang Chen said, "Hmm, I'll go fetch the Skill first."
