Within the valley, Daodao bolts of Thunder raged, and even from hundreds of miles away, one could still feel the terrifying Pressure of that Thunder.
Keep in mind that this was the result after countless years of being worn down by the Cailin.
One can imagine just how powerful the person who harmed Cailin was.
When Ling Yi saw Cailin again, he was completely dumbfounded.
Holy crap, this is so beautiful! No, it's not just beautiful, it's stunning.
She wore a simple white dress, her long hair cascading over her shoulders, her eyes like black and white gemstones, her skin as white as snow, and her lips as red as peaches.
It can be said that this was the most stunning woman Ling Yi had ever seen in his two lifetimes.
No wonder Xiao Zining's father wanted to play Xu Xian; with looks like that, even knowing he was Demon Clan, how many people could resist?
So, one question remains: what are the differences between the Demon Clan and humans after they transform into human form?
Since they can marry and have children with humans, there shouldn't be any difference, right?
" Cailin greets you, young master. Thank you for saving my life." Cailin gracefully curtsied to Ling Yi.
"Mom, you're all better?" Xiao Zining exclaimed in surprise, then threw herself into Cailin's arms.
Cailin's gaze was gentle as he lovingly stroked Xiao Zining's hair.
"You two talk first!" Ling Yi flashed to the side, leaving the mother and daughter some private space to be alone.
The mother and daughter poured out their hearts to each other, sometimes crying and sometimes laughing, and it took them a long time to finally calm down.
Seeing the mother and daughter standing in front of him again, Ling Yi thought to himself, "This doesn't look like a mother and daughter at all; people would believe they're sisters."
However, in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, the age limit is very blurred.
The higher one's cultivation level, the more blurred this boundary becomes.
[ Nine-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python ( Ling Yi's Pet): Cultivation level Late Sixth Realm Demon Immortal; Lifespan: 120,000 years/1,000,000 years]
Who would have thought that the Cailin are already 120,000 years old?
As for Xiao Zining, she is only 19 years old this year.
Xiao Zining's father is probably not very old, at most a few hundred years old.
After all, Xiao Zining's age is a factor!
"Senior, who injured you? Why haven't you returned to the Demon Beast Realm?" Ling Yi asked.
"This story begins with the great war between the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm..." Cailin said slowly.
It's time for some science education again.
This lecture lasted for two days and two nights.
According to Cailin, the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm have always been Shui Huo, and have been fighting each other for millions of years, trying to destroy one another.
As for the initial cause, Cailin said it was because it was too ancient to trace back.
In any case, the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm have been fighting each other non-stop.
However, every action has a purpose, and if it is based on self-interest, then there's no point in talking about good or evil or justice.
Good and evil, justice and injustice can ignite temporary conflicts, but they can never last.
Only self-interest is the driving force behind the constant struggle between the Immortal Realm and the Demon Beast Realm.
Moreover, they must share common interests and demands.
What are the common interests and demands of the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm?
From Cailin's account, Ling Yi deduced two reasons.
First, the population size of the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm.
Both the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm are unified worlds; the Demon Beast Realm is controlled by the Demon Emperor, and the Immortal Realm is controlled by the Immortal Emperor.
There is virtually no possibility of rebellion.
Under the rule of the two Big Shot, the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm Xinxin and enjoyed peace for millions of years.
In addition, the abundance of resources in the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm led to a massive population explosion in the Immortal Realm Demon Beast Realm.
However, population growth inevitably exacerbates resource consumption.
The most alarming aspect is the increase in the number of cultivators, which leads to a greater consumption of cultivation resources.
War, however, can significantly Weaken the population.
According to Cailin, the Immortal Realm and the Demon Beast Realm wage war every million years, and each war results in widespread death and loss of life.
Ironically, every war only begins after the population has reached its limit, or even after some areas have experienced famine.
Therefore, Ling Yi speculated that the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm were using war to reduce their population.
The second reason is the deliberate exchange of resources.
Spiritual herbs and elixirs from the Demon Beast Realm are exchanged for various elixirs from the Immortal Realm, and various mineral veins from the Demon Beast Realm are exchanged for Dharma Artifact and treasures from the Immortal Realm.
After each war, there is always a round of resource exchange.
After each war, the Immortal Realm gains a large amount of spiritual herbs and medicines, but loses a large number of various pills. The Demon Beast Realm loses a large number of mineral veins, but gains various magical Dharma Artifact.
No matter how you look at it, it's way too deliberate.
Considering that people in the Demon Beast Realm don't know how to refine pills or forge weapons.
Ling Yi came to the conclusion that the Demon Emperor and the Immortal Emperor were never enemies, but rather collaborators.
As for why the Demon Beast Realm suddenly invaded the Immortal Cultivation Realm, according to Cailin, the Demon Emperor planned to use the Immortal Cultivation Realm as a springboard to Sneak Attack the immortal Immortal Realm.
There is no direct passage between the Immortal Cultivation Realm and the Immortal Realm.
The Demon Beast Realm has its Gate of the Demon Beast Realm, but the Immortal Realm in the Immortal Cultivation Realm does not have Gate of the Immortal Realm.
Therefore, the claim that it is a springboard is invalid.
The real reason, however, is the presence of Cailin.
Cailin, a unique Nine-Colored Heaven-Swallowing Python, has the potential to become a divine beast in the future.
Her true identity is the daughter of the Demon Emperor of the Demon Beast Realm, and her surname is Sleepiness.
From the moment Cailin was born, she was confined to her palace by the Demon Emperor for over 20,000 years without ever leaving it, either sleeping or cultivating.
Alternatively, one can cultivate in a state of deep sleep.
It can be said that Cailin slept for a full 20,000 years, eventually reaching the realm Immortal Realm a demon immortal.
After reaching the Immortal Realm of a demon immortal, Cailin lost her tendency to sleep.
It just so happens to coincide with the once-in-a-million-year war between the Demon Beast Realm and the Immortal Realm.
Cailin, bored out of her Bored, sneaked out of the palace and, by sheer coincidence, discovered the Gate of the Demon Beast Realm. Using the Gate of the Demon Beast Realm, she escaped to the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
Although Cailin was over 20,000 years old at that time, her personality was as simple as a child's.
His true identity was quickly discovered.
He was besieged and attacked by a coalition of powerful Immortal Cultivation Realm. Although he managed to escape into the Endless Mountain Range with his superior strength, he was still seriously injured.
It has fallen into a deep sleep.
It wasn't until more than two hundred years ago that he recovered some of his injuries and awoke from his slumber.
While Cailin was asleep, the Demon Emperor went mad.
The only one in the Demon Beast Realm with the potential to become a divine beast, his own daughter has gone missing in the Immortal Cultivation Realm. How could the Demon Emperor let this go unpunished?
However, only the Demon Emperor and Cailin knew about Cailin's talent; other people or demons were unaware that Cailin possessed the talent to become a divine beast.
Therefore, the Demon Emperor gave the explanation that they would use the Immortal Cultivation Realm as a springboard to Sneak Attack the immortal Immortal Realm.
This is the main reason why the Demon Beast Realm invaded the Immortal Cultivation Realm.
As for the Demon Beast Realm's ultimate defeat, being killed and driven out by the powerful cultivators of the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and the sealing of the Gate of the Demon Beast Realm, Ling Yi always felt that there was something else going on.
Unfortunately, the sleeping Cailin knew very little.
She didn't even know that the reason the Demon Beast Realm invaded the Immortal Cultivation Realm was because of her.
All of this was deduced by Ling Yi based on what Cailin said.
"After I woke up, although I recovered somewhat, my strength was greatly diminished, and I could barely maintain my human form. I happened to meet Xiao Ziming, who is Zining's father." Cailin gently stroked Xiao Zining's hair and said softly.
"The next two hundred years were the happiest two hundred years of my life..."
"Until the appearance of the Blood Demon Patriarch."
Is this matter related to the Blood Demon Patriarch?
" The Blood Demon Patriarch somehow learned of my true identity and wanted to Refinement me, but at that time, my strength was inferior to that of the Human Clan Golden Core cultivator, and I was severely injured, so I was powerless to resist."
"My husband sacrificed his own essence for me, severely injuring the Blood Self-Destruct Blood Demon Patriarch. However, his cultivation was also greatly damaged as a result, so we had no choice but to hide in the Endless Mountain Range."
"Until Zining was born!"
"For Zining's safety, after discussing it with me, my husband took the infant Zining and left the Endless Mountain Range on the day the Endless Mountain Range opened."
When they met again, Zining was already nine years old.
After that, Xiao Ziming took Zining away from the Endless Mountain Range again and placed Xiao Zining in the care of a Peasant School, while he dealt with the matter of the Blood Demon Patriarch on his own.
As for whether Xiao Ziming is alive or dead, neither Cailin nor Xiao Zining knows, but most likely the outcome won't be good.
When Xiao Zining was fourteen years old, she was discovered by Jiang Xiaoming, the sect leader of the Ethereal Sword School. After discovering Xiao Zining's talent for Upper Third Pin Spiritual Root, he brought her back to the sect and took her as his personal disciple.
Ling Yi glanced at the mother and daughter, who looked like sisters, but many questions arose in her mind.
Does Xiaoming know Xiao Zining's true identity?
Ling Yi guessed that they probably knew.
It is true that Xiao Zining possesses Upper Third Pin Spiritual Root, but she also has the bloodline of the Demon Clan within her.
Ling Yi guessed that Xiaoming Ming not only knew Xiao Zining's half-demon identity, but probably also knew that she was Cailin's daughter.
I wonder what Xiaoming's motives are.
Forget it, why think about all this? Things will eventually come to an end. I've already used my brain enough these past two days!
I feel like I've never been this smart in either of my two lifetimes.
"I wonder where Dad is now." Although Xiao Zining knew that Xiao Ziming was most likely dead, she still held onto a sliver of hope since there was no concrete result.
"We should know soon enough," Ling Yi suddenly said.
Cailin and Xiao Zining both looked at Ling Yi.
Ling Yi, meanwhile, was looking at the entries on the system Map that were Rapid Speed flying in this direction.
[ Blood Demon Patriarch: First Layer of Spirit Leaving the Body, Lifespan: 988/3000 years!]
Good heavens, in just over ten days, the Blood Demon Patriarch has advanced from the Nascent Soul Stage to the Spirit Severing Stage. Clearly, he obtained what he wanted in the Myriad Demon Beast Secret Realm.
Now that they've left the Myriad Demon Beast Secret Realm and arrived at the Endless Mountain Range, it goes without saying that they're here for the Cailin.
For some reason, Ling Yi's Clone didn't follow the Blood Demon Patriarch.
Seeing the mother and daughter's puzzled looks, Ling Yi explained, " The Blood Demon Patriarch is here."
"This guy is still not giving up." Cailin Perception it and quickly detected the Blood Demon Patriarch's Aura.
At the same time, he was somewhat surprised that his master Perception the Blood Demon Patriarch's Aura before he had.
Indeed, he truly is a person overflowing with Karmic Luck.
" Ling Yi, are you saying that the Blood Demon Patriarch knows about my father?" Xiao Zining asked.
"We'll know when the Blood Demon Patriarch arrives." Ling Yi didn't say anything more.
However, judging from the fact that the Blood Demon Patriarch did not deviate at all and headed straight for this valley, it can be determined that the Blood Demon Patriarch must have known about this place for a long time.
As for why it must be during the Spirit Severing Stage that one comes here...
"Senior, is the Formation you set up in the valley only breakable by experts at the Spirit Severing Stage?" Ling Yi asked Cailin.
"Yes, I set it up in a hurry, and it could only block cultivators below the Spirit Severing Stage."
