"Oh, okay." Lin Yi was delighted. He had been curious about the origin of this ghost thing for a long time. Today, he could finally uncover the truth.
But before that, the most important matter for him at this moment was naturally to collect the Heart Devouring Exquisite Grass that was right in front of him.
To be honest, after experiencing the powerful gale of the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle, the Heart Devouring Exquisite Grass was still able to stay here intact. This really made Lin Yi very surprised and glad. If the Heart Devouring Exquisite Grass had been blown away along with the rocks, then he would really not be able to find a grave even if he cried.
With one hand grabbing the tree trunk to stabilize his body, the other hand swiftly collected all the Heart Devouring Exquisite Grass into his bag. The remaining task was how to return to the ground.
The vine rope had been broken by the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle, but this did not prevent Lin Yi from climbing up. Once a human animal was forced into a desperate situation, they could do anything, not to mention that Lin Yi was an expert in the early stage of Foundation Establishment.
The stone wall was very steep, but it didn't matter; the stone wall was very smooth, but it also didn't matter.
Using the remaining true qi in his body, a punch smashed a deep hole in the cliff, and Lin Yi easily found a point of leverage. One step up, one punch, one step up, and one more punch, leaving a trail of craters in the ground. Just like that, Lin Yi climbed back up to the surface.
Entering the space of the jade pendant, while recovering his true qi, Lin Yi said to Gui Dongxi: "Senior Ghost, can you say it now?"
The ghost thing did not answer, but asked: "You should have guessed this old man's origin, right? Tell me first. "
Lin Yi was stunned, and then replied: "According to my speculation, Senior Ghost should be a native of Heavenly Stage Island, and should be an extraordinary person. I wonder if this speculation is reliable?"
The ghost thing smiled noncommittally, and said: "Your speculation is half right, and half wrong. This old man is indeed born on Heavenly Stage Island. This is true, but, when did this old man say that I am a human? "
"Huh?" Lin Yi was dumbfounded. After a long while, he said, "You, you're not a human?"
"Look at me now. Which part of me looks like a human?" The ghostly thing chuckled.
"That's true, but aren't you in the primordial spirit state? It's normal that you don't look like a human." Lin Yi pursed his lips speechlessly.
When he first encountered the ghostly thing, he did not treat it as a human, but as a ghost. However, even if it was a ghost, the first impression was that it was a ghost that a person had turned into after death. Who would have thought that this guy wasn't a human when he was alive!
"Then, is your original form a spirit beast?" Lin Yi asked cautiously. Since the other party was not a human, then it must be a spirit beast. Apart from that, he had never heard of any other creatures with spiritual intelligence comparable to that of humans.
"That's right, this old man is indeed a spirit beast, but as for what this old man's true form is, you don't have to ask. You'll find out when the time comes. " The ghostly thing paused, then said, "You've been in the Welcome Pavilion for a long time. You should have heard of the spirit beast clan, right?"
It really was a spirit beast! Lin Yi suddenly remembered that when he was in the secular world. The puppet clone that the ghostly thing released, Xiao Yi, could not use martial arts. At that time, the ghostly thing said that Xiao Yi's physique was not suitable for using martial arts. At that time, Lin Yi was quite puzzled. However, now that he thought about it, the ghostly thing was a spirit beast, just like the Purple Electric Beast of Wind and Thunder. Perhaps it was good at lightning or external martial arts. It would be strange if Xiao Yi's puppet could use it!
Lin Yi nodded and said, "In my spare time, I heard Senior Brother Lu and Senior Brother Ku mention it. It is said that on the South Island of Heaven-stage Island, a large number of high-level spirit beasts have gathered. Each of them is extremely powerful, and they have formed a powerful force called the spirit beast clan!"
"That's right. Do you know how the spirit beast clan came to be? You should know that in the beginning, all the spirit beasts, no matter how powerful they were, were on their own. Just like what you saw outside the back mountain, they killed each other. They never joined forces, let alone formed a huge force, "the ghostly thing said with a sigh.
"I'm all ears." Lin Yi pricked up his ears. This was a great opportunity to learn about the forces of Heaven-stage Island. It might be useful in the future, so he naturally had to remember it.
"The formation of the spirit beast clan originated from a spirit beast, the most powerful spirit beast in history. We call it the King of Spirit Beasts."
The ghostly thing's tone was filled with unparalleled awe and admiration. It continued, "Its power cannot be described with simple words. You only need to know one thing to understand. Ten thousand years ago, in order to suppress its rise, the three strongest human masters on Heaven-stage Island joined forces to fight it. However, the final result was that it was never defeated."
Never defeated also meant never winning. However, Lin Yi was still in awe because in the face of the three strongest human masters joining forces, not being defeated meant victory.
Lin Yi was only a master in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. He was only at the beginning stage on Heaven-stage Island. He had no idea how strong the strongest person could be, but this did not prevent him from imagining the scene of that battle.
That battle must have been a great battle that was recorded in history.
"Ever since that battle, no one has been able to stop its footsteps. It has defeated the most powerful spirit beasts one by one and made them submit to its feet. They followed it to garrison the South Island of Heaven Stage Island, dominating a region of its own. From then on, the so-called spirit beast clan came into being. "The ghostly thing sighed.
Lin Yi interrupted with some doubts, "Senior Ghost, since the spirit beast clan is in the south island, then it should be rare to see them in other places. Why are there so many spirit beasts in the back mountain?"
"Spirit beasts are different from human beings. It is natural for all races to coexist peacefully. Some are even born to feed on spirit beasts of other races. If they are all put together, it will definitely be a mess. The south island was once in turmoil because of this problem, but later it was suppressed by the King of Spirit Beasts and he left a rule. "
"Spirit beasts of all races can only enter the south island when they reach a certain level and are able to completely restrain their animal instincts. Before that, they can only be scattered everywhere as before. For example, the spirit beasts that you've seen in the back of the mountain are killing each other or human cultivators, but the spirit beasts have never interfered. "
