In the Dry Leaf Village of the Hundred Desolation Mountain in the Blood Demon Sector …
Even by the standards of the Blood Demon Sector, the Hundred Desolation Mountain was the most desolate and barren village of the three main continents of the Blood Demon Sector.
The villagers living in the barren village had to go out and hunt for food before dawn.
The morning sun had just risen in the valley of the Hundred Desolation Mountain, emitting hazy redness and glamorous purple flames, when the Dry Leaf Village was already abuzz with noises and noises.
The Insect Clan was loosening the soil and collecting honey. The minotaurs were plowing the dry fields. The hunting teams led by the werecats and the werewolves set off to the depths of the Hundred Desolation Mountain to try their luck, hoping to run into a few fat prey.
"Brother, it's time to get up. The sun is shining on your butt!"
At the east side of the Dry Leaf Village, inside a particularly ragged treehouse, a girl was shaking a sleeping bag made of interwoven vines hard.
The girl was petite. Her eyes were gold. Many features of felines remained between her mouth and nose. She also had two furry cat ears.
Her arms were smooth and hairless, no different from those of a human being. But her palms and feet had the pads and sharp claws of felines.
The girl's clothes were very revealing. Her chest and waist were simply wrapped twice with animal skin. There was also a belt wrapped with many bone decorations around her waist. On her right side, there was a bone tube made of the hollow leg bone of a giant demon beast.
She shook the sleeping bag for a long time, but there was no response. The cat-eared girl mumbled to herself and took out a sharp bone needle from the bone tube. She groped for the core of the sleeping bag and stabbed it brutally.
The vine sleeping bag hissed and scattered like a mimosa. Countless vines shrunk back into the walls of the treehouse.
A young man with sleepy eyes fell out of the vine sleeping bag and sat on the ground in a daze, blinking his single confused eye.
The young man who was called 'brother' by the cat-eared girl looked entirely different from the girl. He kept most of the features of a human being, except for the intense demonic energy around him and the unusually long canine on his left side. The canine protruded out of his lips like a coldly shining dagger.
The young man seemed to have been heavily wounded. His left eye and his entire left arm were tied up by dirty bandages, from which vague fragrance of medicine was spreading out.
His left arm was obviously smaller than his right arm. As if it had completely withered, it hung lightly on his shoulder.
The cat-eared girl took out a plump bud from the bone tube and squeezed a handful of powder into her palm before blowing it at the young man. With a "poof" sound, the slightly irritating pollen danced in the air.
"Achoo! Achoo! Achoo! "
The young man sneezed three times in a row. His right eye, which was amber like a tiger or leopard, finally regained a trace of clarity.
The cat-eared girl smiled and said, "Morning, big brother!"
The young man rubbed his nose and nodded.
"How is it? How is it? Do you feel better today than yesterday? Do you remember more things?"
The cat-eared girl blinked her big eyes and asked eagerly, "Do you still remember who you are? Who am I? "
The young man grinned and said in a hoarse and weak voice, "My name is Lei Qi. I am a villager of Dry Leaf Village in the Hundred Desolation Mountain. I was born and raised here, and I have never left the Hundred Desolation Mountain. I used to be the best hunter in the village.
"You are my sister Lei Lan, and I have a brother named Lei Chuang. The three of us depend on each other.
"Half a month ago, an enormous meteorite crashed into the Hundred Desolation Mountain, triggering a forest fire. The Dry Leaf Village was about to be affected. All the demons in the village went up to the mountain to fight the fire. As a result, I was caught in the fire and heavily wounded. Unfortunately, I even fell off a cliff.
"By the time I was found, I had already been burnt beyond recognition. My brain was also damaged, and I lost my memories.
"After they rescued me, I took a rest for half a month before my body gradually recovered. Also, I could vaguely recall some of the things in the past. "
"Excellent!"
Lei Lan exclaimed in joy. "Brother, you are finally enlightened. You are no longer as ignorant as you were a few days ago.
"Come, come, come. Big brother, review everything I've taught you in the past few days, including our identities and our origins. Do you, do you remember everything?"
The young man tilted his head and pondered for a moment. Then, he nodded solemnly and said affirmatively, "I do. We are demons."
"If we are demons, what are demons? Yesterday, I read the 'Legends of Ancient Demons' to you. Do you remember what it said? "
Lei Lan asked expectantly, her voice shivering.
The young man coughed softly and said unhurriedly, "According to the 'Legends of Ancient Demons', demons are all creations of the Primeval Lord of Heaven.
"A long, long time ago, before the universe was even born, we and the creator of the universe floated in the boundless void.
"He was the spirit of the Primeval Lord of Heaven, also known as the Primeval Lord of Heaven.
"Heavenly Lord Yuanshi had been floating in the void for hundreds of millions of years. Suddenly, he had a sudden impulse. With a move of his divine thought, an immeasurable explosion occurred in the endless void. In an instant, the sea of stars was born in the explosion."
"The newly-born sea of stars was boiling like magma one moment and freezing like an ocean of ice the next. The planets crashed into each other and were torn apart brutally, turning into raging nebulas. The nebulas revolved quickly, cooled, and condensed into uneven planets.
"The universe is such a pot of boiling soup. It is chaotic, disordered, and devoid of any rules.
"The Primeval Lord of Heaven worshipped rules, order, and tranquility. He established the original order for the chaotic universe, which was the 'Great Dao'. At the beginning, there were three thousand Great Daos, which included the most fundamental rules of the universe.
"Triggering the big bang and establishing the three thousand Great Dao almost drained the energy of the Primeval Lord of Heaven. He was about to enter hibernation.
"He was not satisfied with the rough and chaotic world. Before he fell into hibernation, he used the last bit of his spiritual energy to create the first intelligent species in the universe, the Pangu. He gave the Pangu a difficult mission, which was to govern the violent and chaotic universe.
"In the billions of years after the Primeval Lord of Heaven fell into hibernation, the Pangu created a new world, governed the planets, and consolidated the atmosphere. They also spread the seeds of life from the planet of origin to more planets, allowing the fire of life to flourish in countless worlds. The cold and desolate planets became full of vitality.
"In the long years after the creation of the universe, because the environment of each world was different, the Pangu slowly evolved themselves while they were modifying the planets. They turned into twelve tribes, which were our ancestors, the original twelve ancient demon clans.
"On the scorching planets where the temperature was extremely high and volcanoes were erupting everywhere, the Pangu evolved into the 'Zhurong' clan, which could freely manipulate flames and even survive in magma.
"In the worlds where the entire planet was covered by oceans, the Pangu evolved into the 'Gonggong' clan, which could manipulate undercurrents and waves as well as many sea creatures.
"On the desolate planets where mountains and rocks were everywhere, the Pangu evolved into the 'Houtu' clan, which was enormous in size and could lurk deep below the ground to absorb the tiny resources in the rocks.
"On the gaseous planets where there were no continents or oceans, the Pangu evolved into the 'Tianwu' clan, which could control the wind, and the 'Qiangliang' clan, which could use thunder as the energy source.
"Even in the worlds where the resources were extremely barren and there was barely any energy source, the Pangu clan evolved into a new clan, the 'Kuafu' clan.
"The Kuafu clan chased after the stars all day long. They built enormous rune arrays outside the stars to collect the spiritual energy emitted by the stars and use it to build other worlds.
"It was an arduous project. Countless members of the Kuafu clan were unfortunately swept away by the violent solar prominences and solar storms when they were absorbing the energy of the stars. Some of the starships of the Kuafu clan could not withstand the high temperature of the stars and lost momentum. They were captured by the gravity of the stars and fell into the center of the stars.
"However, the next generation of the Kuafu clan continued the mission of their predecessors and chased after the stars.
"In the most powerful period, the Kuafu clan could even enshroud a star with an enormous rune array and form a 'Kuafu Sphere' to absorb every drop of spiritual energy from the star.
"Just like that, with the unremitting efforts of the Kuafu clan, the Zhurong clan, the Gonggong clan, and all the ancient demon clans, the three thousand Sectors were finally established, which were full of vitality!
"It was the golden age at the beginning of the universe, which we call the 'primeval age'.
"However, everything in the world had Yin and Yang, birth and death, righteousness and evilness, and order and chaos.
"The Primeval Lord of Heaven represented the order, law, and Dao of the entire universe. But in the Big Bang, another ultimate existence that represented chaos, disorder, and destruction was born, too.
"That was' Chaos'.
"Life represents hope, but life also breeds chaos and disorder. When the twelve ancient demon clans established the three thousand Sectors and gave birth to billions of creatures, Chaos was slowly expanding in secret and corrupting the hearts of the creatures.
"Finally, the Pangu clan, which was made of the twelve ancient demon clans, waged a world-shaking primeval war against the clans controlled by Chaos.
"In the primeval war, the sky of countless planets was torn apart, the earth collapsed, and the atmosphere was shattered.
"Many planets were even directly absorbed into the stars and turned into tiny solar storms.
"After tens of thousands of years of the primeval war, the Pangu clan finally defeated the clans of Chaos and completely sealed Chaos.
"However, the primeval war drained the potential of the Pangu clan and cut off their vitality. The shattered planets could not be recovered any time soon, either.
"In order to repair the three thousand Sectors that were broken, the twelve ancient demon clans melted all their essence and gave birth to the thirteenth ancient demon clan, the Nuwa Clan!
"After the twelve ancient demon clans fell asleep, the Nuwa Clan carried out the 'Sky Patching Plan' to repair the three thousand Sectors!
