All living beings was a collective term for sentient creatures in the Myriad Realms.
Humans and the Demon Race were merely two kinds of living beings.
For example, the unique beings of the Netherworld—warriors resembling Soul Bodies—were also a kind of living being.
Besides these, there were many other special existences throughout the Myriad Realms. They had all kinds of forms. Some were born when a wisp of true heavenly fire gained sentience, and these also counted as living beings; others were magical treasures or artifacts that had developed sentience, and they too counted as living beings.
In short, any object that possessed sentience could be called a living being.
In the eyes of humans and the Demon Race, such living beings, distinct from "mortal flesh and blood," were called "Otherkind" by both races.
After all, although humans and the Demon Race belonged to different clans, they were both fundamentally composed of "mortal flesh and blood."
The soul clans of the Netherworld, however, did not possess actual "mortal flesh and blood." Thus, in ancient times, the soul clans of the Netherworld were called "Otherkind," or the "Alien Race."
The clan that had proposed this concept was the Demon Race.
That was because, in ancient times, the Demon Race had been the overlords of the heavens and earth. Even the Netherworld had not dared provoke them lightly.
Ning Shuang mentioned that besides the Demon Race on the first level, this Great Mystic Art cave dwelling also contained other powerful living beings. This immediately caught Lin Bai's attention.
"Powerful living beings? The Alien Race?" Lin Bai's voice sank as he asked in a probing tone.
At the same time, he muttered inwardly, If they really are the Alien Race, then this will be troublesome.
