Ancient demon race
"Hey! Why won't you let us pass? "
The group of youths next to Uncle Wu were somewhat dissatisfied that their path was blocked. They said to the group of minotaurs blocking their way.
"Don't go any further. Otherwise, I'll kill you."
Said a minotaur coldly. It was much taller than the guards outside the city, and its aura was also very terrifying.
Uncle Wu's face revealed a trace of fear. His lips moved slightly, and the group of young men and women around him immediately quietened down.
Ning Qi didn't want to stand out. If there was a chance, he would go in. If there wasn't a chance, it didn't matter if he didn't go in. As such, he quietly stood next to Li Mochou and curiously looked at the Minotaur Guards, checking their stats.
"Level seven middle grade demon beast, Boulder Bull."
After which, Ning Qi glanced at the ten plus people on the other side of the tunnel. Only then did he discover that half of them were Demonic Beasts that had completely transformed while the other half were humans. Without exception, these ten plus people were all Dou Zun existences.
"Do you know the cultivation of the strongest expert in Qiongqi City?"
Ning Qi transmitted his voice.
Li Mochou's lips moved slightly. "The strongest is the city lord of this place, Qiong Wu Yu. I heard that he has the bloodline of a descendant of the ancient Demon Race, Qiong Qi. His cultivation should be comparable to a peak Dou Zun of the human race!"
"The bloodline of the primordial demon race …"
Ning Qi nodded, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes. He had seen the power of Niu Dazhuang's Ancient Titan Descendant bloodline. A guy with Ancient Demon Beast bloodline was probably more powerful and terrifying than the Dragon Clan of the same level. Legend had it that a long, long time ago, Demon Beasts were just pets kept in captivity by the Ancient Demon Clan. At that time, the Monster Race bloodline was still very pure. They could transform at birth and were even more terrifying than the Dragon Race.
However, for some reason, almost all of these Demon Clan members disappeared, and it was difficult to find them. As for the Demon Beasts they reared, because they followed the Demon Clan for many years, they obtained some special inheritance. Later on, they gradually evolved, and after tens of thousands of years of evolution, they became what they were today.
The general meaning of this legend was that the current demonic beasts, regardless of whether they were uncivilized or those that had taken human form and possessed the intelligence of the human race, in ancient times, they were merely pets that the true demon race reared in captivity.
Of course, this was only a groundless rumor. No one could verify whether it was true or not, and no demonic beast would admit that this rumor was true.
In the eyes of most people, this legend was extremely ridiculous.
But Ning Qi didn't think so. In ancient times, the Dragon Clan was just food for the Titan Clan. It was not impossible that the Monster Beasts of today were the real pets of the Demon Clan.
"Sigh, it looks like Qiong Wuyu is going to seal the passage leading to the fragment. Otherwise, why would his subordinates not allow us to approach it?"
"Is he planning to let his Demonic Beast Clan monopolize it?"
"Not necessarily. The strongest humans in Qiongqi City are clearly discussing with them."
Someone gestured with his lips.
"Uncle Wu, which of those people are humans and which are demonic beasts in human form? How are we supposed to tell? "
"That's right. In the future, if we encounter a fully transformed demon beast outside, it will be very difficult for us to distinguish its true identity."
A few young men asked.
Uncle Wu said faintly, "Look at their eyes and you will be able to see some clues. An ordinary demonic beast would not have much of a change in their eyes even if they had completely transformed. There might be purple Qi, red shadows, green glows, or golden lines in their eyes. This is the only way you can tell. A Dou Zun would be able to tell unless the other party has a special aura concealing technique."
After pausing for a moment, Uncle Wu continued, "Of course, there are some demonic beasts that will hide all traces when they completely transform. That way, unless one's cultivation is higher than them, it will be very difficult to distinguish them. The intelligence of a fully transformed demonic beast is not weaker than the human race. It is difficult to distinguish them from their body language."
"Oh!"
Everyone came to a sudden realization.
After listening from the side, Ning Qi used his own method to take a closer look at the dozen plus people near the tunnel. Indeed, he knew that the eyes of a few demonic beasts that had completely transformed were different from an ordinary person. One of them even had pupils that were as small as a cat. Her original form was also a 'Nine Tail Cat Demon'.
At this moment, they seemed to have come up with a plan. They each sent one person over to everyone. Ning Qi only saw a one star Dou Zun from the human race standing above their heads. He faintly said, "We have already discussed with Qiongqi City. We will send one hundred humans below the Dou Huang class in. However, all of you must hand over eighty percent of the things that you obtain inside. If you are willing, you can step forward."
Hand over eighty percent?
Moreover, the risk was unknown!
Those fellows, who originally wanted to go in and fight, shook their heads at this moment. They stood where they were and did not intend to enter to be cannon fodder. However, Ning Qi realized that the demonic beasts had already chosen a hundred half transformed rank 6 demonic beasts. They were already standing in front of the tunnel.
This human race Dou Zun revealed a trace of anger in his eyes when he saw that no one stepped forward.
At this moment, the lady who was originally a Nine-tailed Demon Cat flew to the side of the human race Dou Zun. The corner of her mouth revealed a faint mocking smile, "Why? Does no one from your human race dare to enter?"
"Hand over eighty percent and risk your life? Do you think that we humans are fools?"
Someone said unhappily.
As the Sky Demon Emperor did not allow the demonic beasts to harm humans in the city, they were not afraid of the Nine-tailed Demon Cat, whose cultivation was much higher than theirs.
"That's right! Eighty percent is really too much. "
"Fifty percent is more like it!"
The more the human race Dou Zun listened, the uglier his expression became.
At this moment, a figure broke through the air and arrived a short distance away. It was a middle-aged man who was eight feet tall. One look at his figure and it was obvious that he was not a human.
When everyone saw the middle-aged man, regardless of whether they were demonic beasts or humans, they all bowed and said, "Greetings to the city lord."
This person was the city lord of Qiongqi City, Qiongqi Wu Yu, who possessed the bloodline of the ancient demon race Qiongqi.
The Nine-tailed Demon Cat moved its lips at Qiongqi Wu Yu. Then, Qiongqi Wu swept his gaze across the crowd of humans and extended his hand to point at them one by one.
Among them were Ning Qi, Li Mochou, Uncle Wu, and the others. Uncle Wu's expression was somewhat ugly.
"All of you, enter and hand over ninety percent of the resources you obtain. However, if you can obtain a map or useful information, I will reward you."
Qiongqi Wu Yu said indifferently.
Hand over ninety percent?
That was even more ruthless than the previous eighty percent!
Those who had been pointed at revealed regretful expressions. If they had known this would happen, they would have agreed earlier. At the very least, they would have been left with twenty percent!
"City lord, the Sky Demon Emperor said …"
Someone wanted to use the Sky Demon Emperor's words to pressure Qiongqi.
However, Qiongqi swept a cold glance at that person. "The Emperor said that humans are not to be harmed, but he did not say that you are not to be allowed to enter the 'continental fragment'!"
"Uh …"
Everyone's expressions became somewhat uncertain.
Qiongqi was right. They had not expected a passageway to suddenly appear in Qiongqi City.
In the end, these people were chased to the entrance of the passageway with ugly expressions. They walked into the passageway with the demonic beasts.
"Follow me closely inside."
Ning Qi transmitted to Li Mochou.
