The scene was slowly frozen in the name of 'Kunlun'.
Then, it was the last scene in the virtual world.
Li Yao's soul appeared in the secret chamber that blocked radiation and spiritual waves more than twenty thousand meters below the ground. He stared at the thick liquids inside the crystal pool in midair.
The liquids were like a tranquil ocean. They seemed to be alive. Now and then, tiny waves were popping up, and thousands of telepathic thoughts were flowing out.
The telepathic thoughts condensed into bright gold lines in midair. The lines intersected with each other, and where they crossed, they were dazzling stars. The stars gradually increased in number and expanded into planets and galaxies.
This was a star chart, a star chart that guided the latter to Kunlun.
BOOM!
Billions of stars flooded into Li Yao's brain like a flood. The explosive force blew him out of Ba Yanzhi's memory pieces and reappeared in the depths of the White Silver Death Desert.
Glamorous colors were flowing everywhere, making him look like an enormous egg of the Coloured Glaze in the shape of an arc, and he was crouching inside the egg.
While Li Yao was deep in meditation, too intense heat flowed out of his body without him knowing. The high temperature melted the sand and condensed it into such a weird 'egg shell'.
"Ugh."
Li Yao was sweating hard and shivering nonstop. The gory scenes of the war were still flashing in front of his eyes, and the roars and cries were still echoing in his ears.
It was not until he breathed for a minute that he gradually calmed down.
This was something that had never happened ever since he had formed the ultimate gold core!
Holding the Hidden Star Box that looked like a crystal brain, Li Yao's eyes were somewhat frozen.
Although he had guessed the origin of the demon race and human beings, he did not expect the truth to be so complicated and mysterious!
"There are no human beings, demons, deities, and devils in this world. There are only winners and losers!"
The hideous laughter of the leader of the Ultimate One Sect was still echoing next to his ears. He could not help but bite his lips so hard that hot blood was flowing out.
"So. This is the truth. "
Li Yao rubbed his cheeks hard and recalled everything that had happened forty thousand years ago.
First of all, Ba Yanzhi was indeed 'Chaos'. He was also the creator of the demon race. However, this "creator" of his was a bit of an accident.
Ba Yanzhi used to be the general manager of the Ultimate One Sect on the Infinite Planet, which was under the governance of the Ultimate One Sect. It was just a remote planet without many resources. Even birds didn't want to shit on it.
Judging from Ba Yanzhi's appearance, he was probably not loved by anyone in the Ultimate One Sect. Now that he had been sent to the Infinite Planet, it was more or less like an exile.
But out of his expectation, Ba Yanzhi discovered a Pangu relic on the Infinite Planet, in which there was a black spring left by the Pangu people. There was also a mysterious stone.
Li Yao did not know what Ba Yanzhi's purpose was, but he had secretly hidden the stone.
Then, it was the years of war. The black spring boasted the miraculous effect of resurrection. Although the side effect was that one would grow horns, tails, and dense hair, Ba Yanzhi had no choice but to popularize it on a large scale on the Infinite Planet and create the first batch of 'demons'.
Li Yao did not know how he should comment on Ba Yanzhi's behavior. However, if he were in Ba Yanzhi's shoes and his family members were heavily wounded and had only one way out, he would probably use it on them, too.
"Human beings. What is a human being? If the soul of a human being has a completely different body, is it still a human being? "
The question had once raised heated discussions in the history of the Xing Yao Federation, whose purpose was to give the 'spectral Cultivators' a proper title.
Spectral Cultivators were the souls of human beings. They were a brand-new life form when they were combined with artificial bodies. Not all artificial bodies were in the shape of human beings. When Li Yao was in the Xing Yao Federation, he had a good friend named 'Wei Qingqing'. After she turned into a spectral Cultivator, she liked to fly around in the form of a 'green bird'.
In ancient times, when 'spectral Cultivators' were mentioned, they often reminded people of the haunting ghosts, which were quite detestable.
But the situation in the Xing Yao Federation was different. The Federation had been fighting the demons all year round. Countless soldiers of the Union Army had been sacrificed on the battlefield. As the 'Soul Revealing Powder', 'Soul Collector', and other drugs and magical equipment were applied, more and more soldiers were rescued in the form of souls.
The souls of the soldiers who had 'sacrificed' for their country naturally could not be treated as' ghosts'.
In the history of the Federation, after decades of heated debates, the 'Soul Cult' won the battle.
Since then, according to the law, as long as they had the soul of a human being, no matter what form their body was in, they would be regarded as' natural persons' in the eyes of the law.
After more than a hundred years of development, the people of the Federation were already used to the appearance of spectral Cultivators. They rarely discriminated against or feared them. Ding Yin, Wei Qingqing, Professor Mo Xuan … After the Cultivators died and turned into spectral Cultivators, they continued to fight for the civilization of mankind with their new bodies, too!
Then, what if it was not an artificial body made of crystals and metals but a bizarre-shaped biochemical body that had undergone cell modification?
Were the people who had such bodies still 'human beings'?
The question was too tricky for Li Yao to answer right now.
However, whether or not they were human beings, in the eyes of the ancient Cultivators who were suffering from a shortage of soldiers after years of battles, the mutants who had drunk the 'Divine Water of Kunlun' were obviously the best slaves and warriors.
The most thoughtful Cultivators, such as the Cultivators of the Ultimate One Sect, even thought of the high difficulty of training in the Age of Doom and transformed themselves into demons!
Perhaps, the Ultimate One Demons were the ancestors of the saint-blood demons and the silver-blood demons in the future?
And most of the ordinary people, the ants in their eyes, ended up as bronze-blood demons and black-blood demons?
The Ultimate One Sect's plan worked out. In the Age of Doom, where spiritual energy was scarce, the demons were indeed a brand-new species that were more adapted to the harsh universe than the Cultivators. Under the banner of the Blood Demon Sect, the world of Cultivators fell apart and perished.
In the final, devastating battle, Ba Yanzhi's demon army and the 'Empyrean Terminus Sect', the last force of the world of Cultivators, suffered heavy losses. The Ultimate One Demons stole the fruits of victory without any trouble!
However, the Ultimate One Demons did not foresee one thing.
Not only did Ba Yanzhi escape, he also discovered the secrets of the 'Divine Stone of Kunlun'.
"Kunlun. What is Kunlun exactly?"
Li Yao mumbled to himself.
In the legends, Kunlun and Penglai were both divine mountains in the primeval era. They were also the residences of the ancient experts.
However, in the deepest part of Li Yao's cells, in the memories of his ancestors in the primeval era, he had seen a few enormous starships named 'Kunlun' and 'Penglai'.
"Assuming that Kunlun was a starship left by the Pangu clan, everything would make sense.
"In the primeval era, the Pangu clan had a base on the Infinite Planet. They left some information there, including the 'Divine Water of Kunlun' and the 'Divine Stone of Kunlun' that contained the coordinates of the 'Kunlun warship'.
"Perhaps, they left the 'Divine Water of Kunlun' in the hope that the lives on the Infinite Planet could drink the black spring after they grew to a certain level of wisdom. Their evolution would be accelerated so that they could find the 'Kunlun warship' and receive the heritage of the Pangu clan.
"In any case, Ba Yanzhi, who had lost everything, could only take a gamble. Leading a batch of defeated soldiers, he followed the star map in the 'Divine Stone of Kunlun' and found the vicinity of the 'Kunlun warship', which was right here in the Blood Demon Sector!
"However, when he reached the place, Ba Yanzhi was already too weak to lead a new expedition.
"At the last moment of his life, he drank a brand-new, significantly strengthened 'Divine Water of Kunlun', which activated more 'primeval cells' inside his body and pushed him into the strongest level. But there were hidden problems in his body, too!
"Later, his exploration must have been successful. At least, it was successful for the first time. He did find 'Kunlun' and excavated the remains of the enormous Pangu from 'Kunlun'.
"It is not hard to imagine that a lot of legacies of the Pangu clan in 'Kunlun' were excavated together with the remains!
"After that, he studied the legacies at the center of the White Silver Death Desert below the Star Swallowing Sea, hoping to discover the strength to defeat the Ultimate One Demons. He also created countless dangerous biochemical weapons!"
Li Yao suddenly realized why Ba Yanzhi had established his base in such an uninhabited place.
It was because what Ba Yanzhi was studying in this place were highly contagious and dangerous. Only the depths of the Star Swallowing Sea surrounded by the White Silver Death Desert, where no creatures could survive, would be safe enough!
In such a way, even if an accident happened, the leakage of the venomous fog and venomous gas would not affect the outside world!
Accidents did happen.
At first, it was not the leakage of the venomous fog and venomous gas, but Ba Yanzhi's body finally could not hold on any longer.
He had activated too many primeval cells, and the 'gene locks' that controlled his body were all broken. He returned to the origin of his life and turned into a pool of thick liquid.
Perhaps, that was why he was known as' Chaos'.
He had no nose, no mouth, no hands, no feet, and no knowledge. Wasn't that what the 'Chaos' in the primeval age was like?
However, Ba Yanzhi was not dead yet in the 'Chaos form'. With astonishing determination, he kept the fire of his life burning and continued his studies. He also imprinted his life, the truth about the birth of the demon race, and the ancient star map of Kunlun into the Hidden Star Box.
Perhaps, his studies could have worked out, and Ba Yanzhi's subordinates, who had received the legacies of the Pangu clan, would have had a chance to defeat the Ultimate One Demons.
However, an unexpected accident destroyed the entire base. A certain weird virus spread out on a large scale in the closed base. All the Cultivators and demons mutated crazily and died together in the internal strife.
Since then, Ba Yanzhi's branch of demons had been buried in the desert of the remote world with all their secrets.
As for himself, he was called 'Chaos' by the rulers of later generations and the 'winners'. He was slandered as a terrible destroyer! —
