"All in all," Xie Youxuan concluded confidently, "Fellow Cultivator Li Yao's foster father did not lie. He truly believed so because of his life experience. But as people of the Federation, we must have our own judgment, too. A force a hundred times eviler than the Imperium? I just can't imagine it! "
His words were reasonable. Even Li Yao failed to find any loopholes after careful consideration.
It was true that even he found it hard to imagine that the Imperium, which regarded human lives as worthless, would be a hundred times eviler. What kind of society would it be?
The Yuanying were whispering to each other. His words made them more or less reassured.
They had a preliminary understanding of the Imperium of True Human Beings. If the Holy League was similar to the Imperium, it was not hopelessly strong, and there was still a chance for them to fight.
Right then, a low and slow chuckle echoed in a corner, like the sound of a dull conch.
It was Demon Emperor Gui Suishou, the oldest Yuanying expert in the three Sectors!
Jiang Hailiu, the host of the meeting, immediately felt a headache.
Originally, this Nascent Soul General Assembly did not invite this mysterious old man to this time's gathering.
It was because he had always been a maverick who often hibernated in the depths of the ocean for decades. Nobody knew if he was alive or dead, or where he was.
The reason why Jiang Hailiu organized the meeting was very simple. It was to gather everybody together, cheer them up, and make them determined to win. They could also figure out the countermeasures by the way.
In short, this was a meeting of unity, a meeting of victory, a meeting of unity, a meeting filled with the optimism of cultivation.
Gui Suishou, as a stubborn pessimist, was obviously not in line with the spirit of the meeting.
But he came out of his own accord and took the initiative to participate in the conference. Before the start of the conference, he spread his pessimistic and fugitive arguments. It was obvious that he wanted to pour cold water on everyone's hearts and ruin the hard-won good situation!
Jiang Hailiu was unwilling to invite such a pessimist to the meeting, but the guy's qualifications and capabilities were obvious. It would be inappropriate not to let him attend, and it would be even more inappropriate not to let him speak.
"Why are you laughing, Fellow Cultivator Gui?"
Jiang Hailiu asked with a frown.
Shua! Shua! Shua!
Everyone's eyes were focused on the old tortoise.
Not just the Yuanying Cultivators of the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Flying Star Sector, even most of the demon emperors of the Blood Demon Sector had never seen Gui Suishou in person before. They were quite curious about the legendary 'ancient' and pricked their ears to listen to his wisdom.
"It's nothing. I just feel that fellow Cultivators, you have focused your attention on the unimportant details and neglected what is really important!"
Gui Suishou shook his head and said enigmatically.
Narrowing his eyes, Jiang Hailiu asked, "Then, what do you think about the Alliance of the Holy Covenant, Fellow Cultivator Gui?"
"I don't have much to say, just a little unpleasantly pessimistic and fugitive."
Gui Suishou smiled and said, "However, if you think that I'm only scared of the Imperium of True Human Beings and the Alliance of the Holy Covenant, you can't be more wrong. The Imperium of True Human Beings and the Holy Alliance themselves, however strong they are, cannot be stronger than the Star Ocean Imperium ten thousand years ago. They are not enough to make me so determined to be 'pessimistic'!
"Oh?"
His eyes deep, Jiang Hailiu said, "So to speak, Fellow Cultivator Gui believes that there is something even more dreadful that we cannot resist and that we will fail for sure other than the Imperium of True Human Beings and the Holy Alliance themselves? What is it? "
Exclamations echoed in the hall again. Even Li Yao was looking at Gui Suishou in shock.
The Imperium of True Human Beings and the Holy Alliance were already headache-inducing enough. What was something even more dreadful?
"I'm not sure, but I can only say that it is possible. The answer lies in the name of the Holy Alliance," Gui Suishou said slowly.
Gui Suishou said slowly. "As the saying goes, 'right and proper'. The name of a country can often reveal the ideology and origin of the country.
"The country of the Immortal Cultivators is named the Imperium of True Human Beings because they believe that only the Immortal Cultivators are real human beings, and the ordinary people whose spiritual roots are not awakened are not even 'human beings'.
"The Alliance of the Holy Covenant, as its name suggests, is an alliance of many Sectors that have been gathered because of a certain 'sacred covenant'. Such an understanding should be close to the truth, right?
The Yuanying and the demon emperors all frowned. Gui Suishou was talking nonsense and wasting their time!
Gui Suishou did not even bother to raise his head. He continued slowly. "What is this' sacred covenant 'exactly? We have found the answer from the last words of Fellow Cultivator Li Yao's foster father, too.
"There are two very critical terms in the last words. One of them is' Path of Ultimate Benevolence ', and the other is' Pangu's covenant '!
"The Path of Ultimate Benevolence must be a certain ideology that the people of the Holy Alliance believe in. It is also the belief of the Cultivators of the Holy Alliance. Literally speaking, Ultimate Benevolence is certainly not bad, but there is no telling what the true meaning hidden in it is.
"But the second key term is even more interesting. The covenant of the Pangu, the Pangu?
"Fellow Cultivators, both the civilization of mankind and the civilization of demons have acknowledged that the Pangu is our common ancestor. It is not just a myth but also an irrefutable fact that has been proved by our historians and archaeologists separately!
"In the civilization of demons, we have a more detailed description of the history of the Pangu's creation and the Nuwa's creation of mankind than you do. While some of the descriptions are exaggerated, most of the content is rigorous and reliable. At the very least, we can reflect part of the truth.
"The Pangu was an advanced civilization, or rather, an alliance of advanced civilizations that existed billions of years ago. Under the banner of the 'Pangu Alliance', there were different forms of civilizations such as the Pangu Clan, the Kuafu Clan, the Houyi Clan, the Zhurong Clan, the Gonggong Clan, the Nuwa Clan, and so on. They might be different branches of the same species, or they might be the amalgamation of different alien lives.
"The civilization of mankind, on the other hand, was enlightened by the Pangu civilization or a brand-new civilization that was directly created. If the Pangu civilization is the father, the civilization of mankind is the son. It is the relationship between the 'parent civilization' and the 'child civilization'.
"There is no need to mention the civilization of demons. You have excavated the last relic of 'Chaos' Ba Yanzhi and uncovered the truth about the birth of demons.
"Demons were born after human beings drank a certain gene transformation drug of the Pangu civilization, which changed them from inside to outside.
"Think about it. The universe is a vast place, and the species and life forms on every planet are entirely different. How can there be a drug that is' just right 'enough to stimulate the gene strands of human beings after billions of years, resulting in such delicate changes?"
"Such a coincidence is too inconceivable!"
"The only answer is that the 'Kunlun Holy Water' that 'Chaos' Ba Yanzhi discovered, the gene drug that could mutate human beings into demons, was prepared for human beings by the Pangu civilization!
"The form of demons is not a random mutation but a result of the careful calculation of the Pangu civilization after countless experiments!
"That is the only reason why so many primeval cells can be activated in our body and become completely against the law of nature, but our functions are still stable and we still boast the exuberant vitality and fertility!"
Gui Suishou's words immediately drew everybody's attention to the vast sea of stars on the scale of billions of years. The Yuanying Clan and the demon emperors, who had been somewhat impatient a moment ago, all calmed down and listened to his analysis.
Gui Suishou continued. "The civilization of demons focuses on body training. We focus on breaking the gene lock and regard the strength in the deepest part of the cells as the source!
"When our experts break the gene strands and look at the deepest part of the cells with their souls, they occasionally see the primeval memories hidden at the end of the gene strands and part of the glory of the Pangu civilization billions of years ago!
"I wonder if any of you Cultivators have ever seen such an anomaly before."
Li Yao hesitated for a moment.
He had seen the anomalies that Gui Suishou described before.
When his soul snuck into the deepest part of the cell and marched toward the source of the gene strands, he somehow returned to the primeval age and saw the 'Pangu civilization', which was as tall as a dinosaur, creating life. Kunlun, the overwhelming super warship, left a deep impression on him, too.
Before he replied, a Yuanying Clan member not far behind him stood up and said, "Yes. I was almost mentally deranged when I was training, and I saw the legendary primeval age in my trance!"
It was' Iron God 'Yan Ba!
Iron God Yan Ba was a 'body fundamentalist' who focused on body training and rejected all magical equipment. He had once given Li Yao a precious spiritual seed, which allowed him to defeat Skeleton Dragon on Boneyard!
Body fundamentalists did not rely on external objects but focused on the body and the soul. When they reached the peak of their training, their genes would change, too, and they would show the features of many ferocious primeval beasts. It was similar to the training of demons.
As a Yuanying level body fundamentalist, it was not surprising that Yan Ba had triggered the memories of the primeval age in his cells.
Li Yao stood up, too. Looking at Yan Ba, he nodded at the senior who had helped him selflessly and said, "Just like Senior Yan, I saw the Pangu civilization in the primeval age in my training, too!"
Some other Yuanying Clan members pondered for a moment and stood up, too. They did have some fuzzy primeval memories, but there was no telling whether they were illusions or the legacies hidden in the deepest part of their cells.
"Excellent. In such a case, I believe that everybody will admit that we were created and enlightened by the Pangu civilization. We are 'father and son' with the Pangu civilization."
