The elderly voice of the Spirit Devouring Beast seemed to have chuckled, but there was no hint of a smile on its face.
"You don't need to be wary, I have no ill intent. Whether it's through strength or luck that you were able to make it here, you must be fated with our tribe. As you can see, there is the essence of the spirit vein here, and that is enough to prove that I have no ill intent! If we were to fight here, any violent fluctuations could completely destroy the essence of the spirit vein. That's not something you want to see, is it? " The old Spirit Devouring Beast spoke slowly, and it seemed to be a little out of practice due to not speaking for a long time, so it took a long time to say this.
Only now did Lin Yi understand why the old Spirit Devouring Beast hadn't taken the initiative to attack. The Divine Sense Flame vortex he had unleashed earlier was still a spiritual sense attack, so it wouldn't have caused the essence of the spirit vein to become unstable. If Lin Yi had unleashed a Divine Sense Flame Bomb, the old Spirit Devouring Beast would most likely have fought with its life on the line.
Before Lin Yi had a chance to speak, the injured Spirit Devouring Beast let out a sharp cry, as if it was saying something to the old Spirit Devouring Beast.
The old Spirit Devouring Beast listened in silence before sighing with a hint of sorrow in its voice. "Is that so? Are all three of them dead? Were they killed by this human? But if you don't go after them, they won't kill you, right? You don't need to be sad, our tribe will grow up again. What's important is the future! "
Lin Yi raised an eyebrow. He had already discovered with his divine sense that there were five fist-sized eggs in the giant piece of spirit jade beneath the old Spirit Devouring Beast, and there were already faint spiritual Qi fluctuations emanating from them. These should be the descendants of the Spirit Devouring Beast, right? He wondered which of the three that had died.
In that case, the essence of the spirit vein was one thing, and these eggs were another. The old Spirit Devouring Beast really wouldn't do anything to harm Lin Yi for the essence of the spirit vein and the five eggs in case something unexpected happened and the entire Spirit Devouring Beast Clan was wiped out.
"Human, I'm very sorry. Although you killed three of my descendants, it was only because they attacked you first. Casualties in battle shouldn't be a source of hatred. I hope this matter will be settled and written off, alright?" The old Spirit Devouring Beast spoke slowly, and it seemed to be very sincere.
Lin Yi already knew that he had the upper hand, so he replied in an indifferent manner, "Write it off? You Spirit Devouring Beasts are bloodthirsty and have attacked me no less than thirty times along the way. You've even killed several of my companions. Do you think you can erase all of this with a simple sentence? "
"What do you want? Although I have my reservations, if you want to die, we both of you, of of of of of our Spirit't, our Spirit Devouring Beast to be Spirit vein.
"I want half of this essence of the spirit vein, and you have to return all of the human belongings that you killed to me!" Lin Yi stated his conditions very straightforwardly. Although he didn't say he wanted all of the essence of the spirit vein, it was already an exorbitant demand of half. In any case, it was just a negotiation, so he was just asking for an exorbitant price.
"That's impossible!" The old of the Spirit Devouring Beast refused without hesitation. "Human, you have to understand that this spirit jade immortal vein has been the home of us Spirit Devouring Beasts for tens of thousands of years. You came here to mine the spirit jade, which is trespassing on our home. However, we Spirit Devouring Beasts have never killed every single one of you. At most, we only kill a portion of you humans. It's not that we're bloodthirsty, it's because the golden cores and nascent souls of you humans are the best material for nourishing the essence of the spirit vein. Since you need the spirit jade, shouldn't you make some contributions?"
Lin Yi was stunned. He had never thought that there would be such a reason behind the bloodthirsty and cruel nature of the Spirit Devouring Beasts. The golden cores and nascent souls of humans were dug out by the Spirit Devouring Beasts not to be eaten, but to be used to nourish the essence of the spirit vein?
"Human, the essence of the spirit vein can be consumed in small amounts, but not in large amounts. Otherwise, it'll be very easy for the spirit jade immortal vein to completely dry up. We Spirit Devouring Beasts have done nothing wrong in order to protect our home. Many Spirit Devouring Beasts have died at the hands of you humans, so there's actually no right or wrong between us." The old of the Spirit Devouring Beast spoke in a slow and unhurried manner, but his words were very reasonable.
Lin Yi took a glance at the essence of the spirit vein. In reality, he knew that he couldn't really take the essence of the spirit vein away. After all, the Primordial Underworld still had to rely on the spirit jade of the spirit jade immortal vein in the future.
"Ten days a year, twenty people limit, it's all your Spirit-Eating Beasts' doing, right?" Lin Yi suddenly changed the topic and asked about something that seemed completely unrelated. "You're the one who set this rule, aren't you?"
The old of the Spirit Devouring Beast fell silent for a moment before replying, "You really aren't an ordinary person to be able to see through the truth with just a glance! That's right, this restriction was indeed modified by us Spirit-Eating Beasts based on the natural ancient formation of this immortal vein. After all, this is the home of us Spirit-Eating Beasts, and we Spirit-Eating Beasts feed on the Spirit Qi within the Spirit Jade. We can't possibly give you humans too much! "
Lin Yi chuckled coldly. "You opened it for ten days just to let our golden core and nascent soul cultivators in, right? Otherwise, if Foundation Establishment cultivators came in, you wouldn't have any materials to nourish the essence of the spirit vein, right? "
In order to dig up as much spirit jade as possible within the ten days, the four big and ten small children had sent their most powerful cultivators to the spirit jade immortal vein, which then became the prey of the Spirit Devouring Beast race.
The old of the Spirit Devouring Beast fell silent for a long while, as if to express a tacit agreement. Lin Yi didn't beat around the bush anymore and said indifferently, "I don't want to get involved in what happened in the past. From now on, the spirit jade immortal vein will only be opened for six months every year, and the limit is two hundred people. I don't care if you want to hunt down golden core and nascent soul cultivators. This is the law of the jungle, so there's nothing more to say. Do you agree or refuse? Give me an answer! "
"Two hundred people in half a year, that's too much …" The old of the Spirit Devouring Beast hurriedly opened its mouth, but it was cut off by Lin Yi.
"Agree or refuse?" Lin Yi narrowed his eyes, and his gaze was as cold as a knife. He flipped his palm over to reveal the Divine Sense Pill Fire Bomb that he had been condensing for a while!
The old of the Spirit Devouring Beast roared as it sensed the terrifying energy fluctuations emanating from Lin Yi's palm. "Even if you want to destroy the essence of the spirit vein, you have to listen to me. Otherwise, it'll be a life and death struggle, and no one will have any spirit jade to use! Is this the ending you wish for? "
