"Their strength was unfathomable. The deputy island master of the Middle Island was not convinced, but in the end … sigh …" Even with the ghost's strength, its voice could not help but tremble as it recalled, "He died a horrible death, he was beaten to death …"
"Uh …" Lin Yi was stunned. What kind of place was the Middle Island? It was the most powerful island among the five Heaven-rank islands. Even if the deputy island master was not as powerful as the island master, to be beaten to death in one blow was really …
"As for where they came from, no one knew because no one on the island had seen them! I only heard one of them call the other uncle, so the two of them might be relatives! "The ghost said. (If you want to know the identity of the two people, you can read Very Pure Prequel).
"Uncle? Relatives? " Lin Yi was even more confused, but this was a question he didn't even know what it was, so naturally he wouldn't be able to get an answer.
The ghostly thing continued, "After the disappearance of the Spiritual Beast King, the Spiritual Beast Clan, which used to be united under its suppression, began to gradually split up. A few elders went their own way, ambitious to become the new Spiritual Beast King."
This was not difficult to understand. As long as one was a top master, they would definitely have their own ambitions. When the Spiritual Beast King was around, they did not dare to show it. However, once there was no such powerful existence above them, their ambitions would awaken like instincts.
After all, if one had the strength to compete for the supreme position, why would he be willing to be under someone else?
"The few elders' strength was about the same, and no one was willing to submit to the other. Thus, they formed a few forces, each occupying a part of the South Island! In this way, there were internal conflicts and internal troubles. Outside, there were many human sects eyeing the Spiritual Beast Clan covetously. If this goes on, it is inevitable that the Spiritual Beast Clan will fall apart. After thinking about it, I'm afraid the key to breaking out of this predicament lies with the Spiritual Beast King, "the ghost said slowly.
"Spiritual Beast King? Didn't he disappear? "Lin Yi could not help but ask in surprise.
The ghost shook its head and said, "That's right. The Spiritual Beast King has indeed gone missing, but he left behind a bloodline in the secular world. As long as we can find his descendant and find a way to awaken the power of his bloodline, he can become the new Spiritual Beast King and command the Spiritual Beast Clan! "
"Is this … possible?"
Lin Yi felt that the ghost's idea was a little wishful thinking. "Even if you found the descendant of the Spirit Beast King, he was still born in the secular world. Even if there's a way to awaken his bloodline power, his strength shouldn't be as strong as the Spirit Beast King's. How are we going to convince these ambitious spirit beast elders? "
This kind of plot was similar to how the assistant ministers supported the young emperor after the death of the emperor. Even if they recognized the young emperor's position on the surface, in reality, the power was still in the hands of the assistant ministers. The young emperor was just a puppet that was manipulated by others.
From Lin Yi's point of view, without sufficient strength, even if the ghost managed to find the descendant of the Spirit Beast King, it would not be able to do so. In the end, he might not even be able to become a puppet emperor.
It was very likely that the Spiritual Beast Clan's elders would not acknowledge his position at all. As for commanding the Spiritual Beast Clan, that was out of the question.
"There's something you don't know. Kid, you should have heard of the level suppression between spirit beasts before, right? "The ghostly thing didn't answer but asked a question instead.
Lin Yi nodded. "I've heard of it. It's said that between spirit beasts, apart from their strength, there's an innate level suppression. One level suppresses the other, and there's never been such a thing as fighting an enemy with a higher level. "
"That's right. Only between spirit beasts of the same level, strength will determine who's stronger and who's weaker. Otherwise, there's no need to fight at all. The low-level spirit beasts themselves will shrink back in fear. "
The ghost paused, then added, "However, this rule is only limited to spirit beasts below the Heavenly Way. When the spirit beast's strength grows to the Heavenly Way, which is above the Foundation Establishment stage, it will possess super-high spiritual intelligence and be able to break through this level suppression. In other words, even if it's a naturally lower level spirit beast, as long as it's strong enough, it can still kill a higher level spirit beast that's weaker than it."
Taking the few powerful spirit beasts that Lin Yi had encountered before, for example, the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle's strength was naturally higher than the Nine-tailed Cloud Piercing Leopard's. In general, its strength would also be much stronger than the Nine-tailed Cloud Piercing Leopard.
However, it must be known that even a powerful spirit beast like the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle wouldn't be born with the powerful strength of the Foundation Establishment middle stage. When it was in its infancy, its strength might only be at the Earth Stage or even lower. At this time, if it encountered a Nine-tailed Cloud Piercing Leopard that was below the Heaven Stage, even if its true combat strength was stronger than the other party, the other party could rely on its natural spiritual beast pressure to scare it away.
However, if they were both adults that had broken through the Heavenly Way, assuming that the Nine-tailed Cloud Piercing Leopard had the strength of the Foundation Establishment early stage and the Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle had the strength of the Foundation Establishment early stage, the Nine-tailed Cloud Piercing Leopard's spiritual beast pressure would be useless. The Ghost-eyed Golden Eagle could rely on its powerful strength to kill it instead.
"But in this case, isn't the descendant of the spirit beast king even more useless? Since the level suppression is only effective for those below the Heavenly Way, those powerful spirit beast elders don't need to care about it at all? "After listening to this explanation, Lin Yi was even more puzzled.
"No, the level suppression rule that this old man told you is applicable to all spirit beasts, but the spirit beast king is an exception. He is an existence that surpasses all rules. His bloodline is naturally the king among spirit beasts!" The ghostly thing's calm tone suddenly had an additional trace of scorching heat and reverence.
"Surpasses all rules, a natural king?" Lin Yi's heart trembled.
"His bloodline can naturally kill all spirit beasts. Even if it's a powerful spirit beast above the Heavenly Way stage, or even elders like us, in front of his bloodline, we can only bow our heads in submission. Therefore, as long as we can find his descendant and awaken his bloodline, even the weakest yellow-level spirit beast can suppress the entire spirit beast clan and not let anyone have any disloyal thoughts! "The ghostly thing said excitedly.
"This … is really exaggerated!" Lin Yi couldn't help but open his mouth wide.
Regardless of whether they were strong or weak, they could kill all spirit beasts!
This kind of unreasonable level suppression was practically like cheating! Being able to suppress the entire spirit beast clan from birth, was there anything more exaggerated and shameless than this in this world?
If that was the case, not only the spirit beast clan, but the entire spirit beast world was simply the back garden of the spirit beast king's family! As long as their bloodline was passed down, all spirit beasts from top to bottom could only work for them. There was absolutely no possibility of a counterattack!
