The Abilities of the Demon Race

As far as Kong Wenxuan knew, low-level Demon Beast, namely first to Third Tier Demon Beast, were all beasts without intelligence, possessing only strength, and were even less likely to speak.

But now, he saw this Second Tier Gray Wolf Demon Beast actually speak, and it spoke clearly and logically, just like a human, which was undoubtedly beyond his comprehension.

"Demon Race!" At this moment, the clan chief Kong Changgeng exclaimed in surprise, looking at the Gray Wolf demon who had spoken, and asked in astonishment, "Are there really Demon Race in this world? Lang Jitong, you've actually become Demon Race!"

"Clan leader, what is the Demon Race? How is it different from Demon Beast?" Seeing this, Kong Wenxuan knew that the clan leader might know something, so he immediately asked.

"I don't know much either; I only heard about this from my elders when I was a child."

Clan Chief Kong Changgeng shook his head slightly and immediately explained:

"It is said that in this ' True Spirit Realm,' there are some intelligent Demon Beast who call themselves the Demon Race."

"Within the 'True Spirit Lineage True Spirit Lineage,' the lower three ranks, from the ninth to the seventh grade, control various counties in the region. Their main tasks are threefold: defending the territory, slaying demons, and collecting taxes."

"The 'slaying demons' part mainly refers to killing Demon Race, not just killing Demon Beast."

"However, back when our Kong Household was still a ' Ninth-Grade True Spirit ' Lineage, we lived in the prosperous Central Domain, where cultivators were as numerous as raindrops and cultivation was thriving. We had never seen any Demon Race there, so we always thought it was just a legend."

"But unexpectedly, I have actually encountered the legendary intelligent Demon Race in this Southern Vermilion Bird Domain!"

Upon hearing this, Kong Wenxuan understood the key point and immediately said, "Therefore, this so-called Demon Race is the enemy of the Imperial Dynasty, and is an object that all ' True Spirit Lineage ' must kill and eliminate."

"Indeed!" Clan Chief Kong Changgeng nodded, then said solemnly, "However, our Lineage has no experience fighting against the Demon Race race before, and has always thought that the Demon Race is just a legendary existence. Therefore, we are not clear about what abilities these Demon Race have, or how different they are from Demon Beast."

"So, everyone be careful in the upcoming battle."

"Haha... Not bad! I've become Demon Race, and I have you all to thank for that!" At this moment, the leading wolf demon Lang Jitong, led three other Second Tier wolf demons to attack, shouting, "To thank you, I will devour your flesh, bones, and souls, merging you with me!"

"I will also offer the ' Peacock True Spirit ' of your Kong Household as a sacrifice to the great Demon Emperor!"

Although Kong Wenxuan and the others were all in the "Feather Boat" at this time, in order to rescue their clansmen in the "Peacock Ridge" below and kill the Demon Beast besieging their clan's territory, they could not raise the "Feather Boat" too high or fly too far, otherwise they would not be able to avoid the attacks of these Second Tier wolf demons.

Furthermore, because the "Feather Boat" flies within a small area in mid-air, it is even more inconvenient to move, turn, or evade attacks, making it an easier target to attack.

At this moment, Kong Wenxuan observed the four attacking wolf demons and realized that among the four Second Tier wolf demons, only the leader, Lang Jitong, was Demon Race with intelligence; the other Second Tier were clearly Demon Beast without sentience. Therefore, he immediately said:

"Clan Chief, Clan Chief Yan, I'll deal with the leading Demon Race Lang Jitong. As for the remaining three Second Tier Demon Race Demon Beast, you keep them occupied for now. I'll come to your aid after I've killed Lang Jitong."

As he spoke, Kong Wenxuan leaped down from the "Feather Boat" and charged directly at the wolf demon Lang Jitong who was attacking.

Boom! Rumble...

The fastest sword, the Crimson Fire Divine Sword, struck first. As thunder roared, the Crimson Fire Divine Sword had already struck the wolf demon Lang Jitong.

When!

Just then, a loud clang of metal clashing rang out, and the wolf demon Lang Jitong was enveloped in a copper-iron light. His entire wolf demon body seemed to have transformed into a copper-iron body. The "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" struck him, but it failed to break through his "copper-iron body" defense.

Upon seeing this, Kong Wenxuan knew that this was the Lang Household's "Bronze Head and Iron Bones" Bloodline Divine Ability. After advancing to the Second Tier, its power was even stronger. It was no longer just that the "head" and "bones" were cast like copper and iron, but even the entire body could be transformed into a "copper and iron body". The "waist and abdomen", which were originally weak points, were now also cast like copper and iron and were no longer weak points.

"Demon Race can still use Bloodline Divine Ability! That makes them stronger than ordinary Demon Beast!"

A thought flashed through Kong Wenxuan's mind.

Based on his experience fighting against demons outside the "Demon-Suppressing Pass" over the past few years, ordinary low-level Demon Beast, even those Demon Beast transformed from fallen bloodline Demonization, cannot use Bloodline Divine Ability; at most, they may possess some bloodline talents.

There is a difference between "talent" and "Divine Ability." "Talent" can only be considered instinct at most, while "Divine Ability" truly requires wisdom to control and operate.

What is Divine Ability? It is the Divine Ability with heaven and earth that reveals Divine Ability!

It can be said that every bloodline cultivator's Bloodline Divine Ability contains some of the power of heaven and earth; the only difference is the amount contained within.

Therefore, without this "god", it is impossible to operate or master the "Bloodline Divine Ability". Low-level Demon Beast do not have intelligence and do not have this "god", so they naturally cannot master the "Bloodline Divine Ability". At most, they may have some "bloodline talent", but their power depends entirely on their own strength, which is far inferior to the power of the "Bloodline Divine Ability".

This is why cultivators with bloodlines are able to suppress Demon Beast and control the vast land of the "True Spirit Realm".

However, the Demon Race Lang Jitong before them also possessed wisdom and "divine" abilities, thus being able to unleash "Bloodline Divine Ability," which greatly narrowed the gap between Demon Race and bloodline cultivators.

If the other party can still use Spirit Artifact, cast Spirit Technique, or even refine pills, set up formations, and draw talismans, then they are really not much different from bloodline cultivators, at most just different races and different physical forms.

Kong Wenxuan's mind raced with thoughts, but his hands moved swiftly. Seeing that the "Crimson Fire Divine Sword" could not break through the opponent's "Bloodline Divine Ability," he immediately activated the sharpest and most lethal "White Metal Divine Sword" to strike down.

Laugh!

With a cracking sound, the Golden Light Sword Threads transformed from the "White Metal Divine Sword" had already struck Lang Jitong's "forged from copper and iron" demonic body.

This time there was no clanging of metal, but the sword threads formed by the "White Metal Divine Sword" also failed to kill the opponent.

But then, a set of "Bronze and Iron Spirit Armor" appeared on Lang Jitong's wolf demon body. Combined with the Bloodline Divine Ability power of "Bronze Head and Iron Bones", it actually withstood the sharp slash of the "White Metal Divine Sword" that turned into sword threads!

"Defensive Spirit Artifact!"

"So, the Demon Race can indeed use Spirit Artifact."

"In this way, there really is no difference or distinction between the Demon Race and bloodline cultivators."

Kong Wenxuan's heart sank, and he became increasingly aware of how troublesome this Demon Race was, and the threat it posed to the "Golden Crow Imperial Dynasty," the "True Spirit Lineage," and bloodline cultivators.
