Fourth-Tier Top-Grade Gathering Origin Tree

Worry flickered in Hu Lingshan's eyes. The human race possessed Dao-Attuned Physiques; demonic beasts needed decades or even centuries merely to gain intelligence, while humans needed only ten years.

Humans had no Bloodline Inheritance, yet Nascent Soul level cultivators were born generation after generation.

In ages past, the demonic beast race had been the rulers of the cultivation world, only to be gradually driven from the most prosperous regions of every continent by the once-weak human race.

Now that another Nascent Soul Power had emerged in the Western Continent, what would the world look like in another thousand years?

From a rational perspective, they had to curb humanity's development now. Otherwise, once humans continued to grow, they would block the sunlight needed for the demonic beast race's survival.

Hu Yujie did not know what her great-grandmother was thinking. She lowered her head slightly and said,

"I owe True Monarch Xuanqing a debt of gratitude. I should repay it, but I don't know what would be appropriate."

The debt of saving one's life was too great, so it had to be repaid.

"What do you intend to give?"

"Some resources such as spirit herbs. Those resources can be used to refine pills and increase cultivation. They would be an excellent gift in return for any cultivator."

"For our clan, cultivating spirit herbs is far more difficult than it is for human cultivators.

"This True Demon Tribulation caused tremendous losses throughout Green Hill. Shouyin Mountain nearly fell.

"Not only that, many Spirit Vein Nodes were contaminated by those vicious True Demons. We need to pay an enormous price for Purification of Contamination.

"Every resource is precious now. So I do not object to you using your own savings to repay him, but you are not permitted to draw upon the clan's resources."
