Helena came from an extraordinary background and she was also a strong martial artist, so it was not surprising that she knew about the demon race. Tian Xuanzi didn't find it strange at all.
Immediately, he shook his head and smiled bitterly. "This is the horror of demons. I've said that they are a race that will do anything to achieve their goals. Their ancestors were originally a small group of the most outstanding elites of the human race. Although the genetic factors are not 100%, there will always be some influence. Furthermore, the demon race itself has the most outstanding genes of the human race, and they are extremely exploratory and aggressive in their bones. They will use unscrupulous means to plunder, even at the expense of destroying one civilization after another. Plundering resources is only one of their goals. More importantly, their goal is to find the way to immortality."
Before Helena could refute, Tian Xuanzi said proudly, "I know you want to say that even humans don't have the way to immortality, so what can the demon race obtain from Earth? I can only say that you westerners are too ignorant. You believe in God, that fate is determined by the heavens, but we, the divine continent, believe in nature. In the ancient times of the divine continent, there were countless experts that lived for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. It is not something that you can understand."
Helena's lips moved, she wanted to say something but she didn't know where to start.
Tian Xuanzi ignored her and continued, "The demon race didn't just invade Earth. Before that, they had already invaded countless other planes. They were like a bunch of greedy bandits that kept robbing and destroying civilizations one after another. They extracted the essence of each civilization and merged it into their own. To be honest, the demon race already possessed technology that far surpassed Earth's technology 5,000 years ago. They were able to create spaceships that could travel through the universe and extract the essence of everything to create nutrient fluids …."
Everyone was dumbfounded and Helena covered her mouth and exclaimed, "There were many unexplainable alien civilizations on Earth. Were they all left behind by the demon race?"
"I'm not sure about that. I only know that the Demon Race's technological civilization is far more advanced than our Earth's. If it weren't for the fact that the Tong Tian Tower's passageway doesn't allow powerful Demon Race experts to pass through, with their powerful technological civilization, coupled with their nearly perfect genes and powerful martial arts cultivation, who knows what the outcome of the war five thousand years ago would have been. It's not impossible for the entire Human Race to perish."
Tian Xuanzi paused for a second and he revealed a huge secret, "The demon race has already created an elixir. They invaded Earth not only to exterminate the human race but also to obtain the ingredients to create the elixir. Although the ingredients are not unique to Earth, Earth's environment is the most suitable to grow them. Thus, when they invaded Earth, they only killed the strong humans and reared the ordinary humans like livestock. Perhaps, they were planning to build an elixir garden on Earth."
"What herb?"
Helena's eyes lit up as she asked. However, she was calculating in her heart. If she knew what the herb was, she might be able to derive the formula for the Pill of Immortality.
"How would I know? This is what I saw in the records of the sect. There was no mention of the herb. Of course, this is just the speculation of the human race's elders, it might not be true. However, it is true that the demon race has the technology to create the Pill of Immortality. There are historical records as proof. It clearly states that the human experts found many demons who were still alive from the demon race's invasion ten thousand years ago until the final war. "
Shock flashed across Tian Xuanzi's eyes as he thought, The demons that are able to come to Earth are definitely not newborns. Even if they are only a few decades old, they are still alive after five thousand years of the dark calendar. This means that the technology they possess can at least extend the demon's lifespan to more than five thousand years. How long can the human Saint Martial Qi Practitioners live? Five hundred years is the limit. Those demons are not even in the Divine Martial Realm but they are able to live for more than five thousand years. This is unbelievable! "
Everyone was silent, and their eyes were filled with horror as they looked at the devil statue that was still constantly roaring. A True Martial Realm devil could live for more than five thousand years, so what was so strange about the devil sealed in this devil statue having lived for more than five thousand years?
Kacha kacha!
Just as everyone's hearts were pounding, the earth shook and the mountains swayed. The tall statue suddenly cracked like a broken porcelain doll, as if it would collapse at any moment.
The roar that sounded like it came from the sky was filled with unconcealable excitement and agitation, causing everyone's heart to sink to the bottom.
Tian Xuanzi's face turned serious and he said solemnly, "We are the martial artists of our generation. We must not allow this demon to come out and wreak havoc in the world. Let's work together! Even if we die, we must kill this demon!"
"Look at this aura and aura, this demon's cultivation level is not low. Are we his match?"
Rays flashed across Feng Shen's eyes and he suddenly said.
"Shut up! How dare you call yourselves the descendants of the gods. Gods and demons are natural enemies. Do you think the demon will let you go just because you don't do anything?"
Tian Xuanzi scolded mercilessly.
Feng Shen blushed when he saw everyone's disdainful gaze and he tried to defend himself, "It's not that I don't want to do anything. But there must be a way to deal with this demon. Aren't we just sending ourselves to our deaths?"
"At a time like this, what is there to talk about? Let's just kill him together. I, Helena, am willing to follow Senior Tian Xuanzi to slay the demon! "
Helena's eyes flashed and she said resolutely.
This bitch, she still doesn't forget to win people's hearts even at a time like this.
Feng Shen cursed in his heart but he maintained a straight face and said, "I, Feng Shen, am not a coward. I am willing to work with Mister Tian Xuanzi to slay the demon."
The Daoist leisurely let out a long sigh, he laughed out loud and said, "I am a cultivator, slaying demons and exterminating devils is a duty of my generation, I, Feng Ling Xiao, will definitely lend you a helping hand."
Tian Xuanzi looked at him in surprise, "I didn't expect you to be the second in the Divine Land's Martial Board, Fellow Daoist Feng."
"You are flattering me. I am just a defeated opponent of Shura."
Feng Lingxiao said with self-mockery.
Tian Xuanzi sighed and he didn't say anything else. However, he suddenly realized something. No wonder Helena was not afraid of Feng Shen, she had this super bodyguard protecting her.
Feng Lingxiao was just like him, a Martial Arts fanatic. He had challenged more than a hundred experts of the same level in his life but he had never lost a single time. He was known as an undefeatable existence in the same level.
Unfortunately, twenty years ago, when Feng Lingxiao participated in the Divine Land's Martial Board competition, he wanted to be the champion but he ran into Shura who was far weaker than him. At first, he was still suppressing Shura but little did he know that Shura used him as a whetstone to sharpen himself. In the end, Feng Lingxiao had an epiphany and defeated Shura with a single slash.
If it wasn't for Shura showing mercy to him, Feng Lingxiao would have been killed by Feng Lingxiao's saber.
As the saying goes, the higher you are, the harder you fall. Feng Lingxiao was known as an undefeatable prodigy in the same level but he was defeated by Shura who was weaker than him. This made him too ashamed to stay in the Divine Land anymore. Before the competition ended, he left for the sea and was never heard from again.
Many people wrung their wrists and sighed, thinking that Feng Lingxiao's path of invincibility had been thwarted, and they feared that he would disappear from the crowd.
But from Tian Xuanzi's observation, Zhong Yue was already in the mid stage of the Celestial Martial Realm. It seemed like Zhong Yue's Martial Heart was not broken like what everyone thought. Instead, Zhong Yue's Martial Heart grew stronger and stronger.
One must know that twenty years ago, Feng Lingxiao was only in the early stage of the True Martial Realm. To be able to break through to the Soul Condensing Realm in just twenty years, he was indeed a prodigy. But no one knew why such a prideful person was secretly recruited by the Imperial Family Alliance.
Feng Shen and the middle-aged lady exchanged a look and saw the seriousness in each other's eyes. Clearly, they had also heard of Feng Lingxiao's name.
Previously, they didn't put this Daoist Priest in their eyes. Now, they knew that this Daoist Priest was actually a hidden Heaven's Chosen. This shocked them and they didn't dare to underestimate him anymore.
Feng Lingxiao might only be ranked second in the Martial Ranking Board, but his combat power was definitely far beyond those in the same level as him. Being ranked second in the Martial Ranking Board could only mean that he was unlucky to have encountered a freak like Shura. Anyway, they knew that they were no match for this famous prodigy in a one-on-one fight.
Hearing Shura's name, the resolute young man who had always been tall and straight had a slight change in his expression. He looked over subconsciously and saw Jiang Wuhui looking at him with high fighting intent. He frowned slightly and turned his head away expressionlessly, ignoring Jiang Wuhui.
Being ignored, Jiang Wuhui was furious. If it weren't for the fact that the demon was about to break free, he would have challenged the young man to see who was stronger on the spot.
Tian Xuanzi was observant and attentive. Seeing the two's expressions, a meaningful smile appeared on his face. He thought, "It seems that the world is really going to be chaotic. Even the disciples of the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe, who have been closed for many years, have come out."
Just like the Tianyin Temple, the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe closed their doors and lived in seclusion when the world was at peace. When the world was in chaos, they opened their doors and killed the demons with the sabers in their hands.
However, this time, both the Holy-saber Ancient Tribe and the Tianyin Temple sent their disciples. It was unknown whether they sensed something or simply wanted their disciples to participate in the Warriors' Assembly and treat the Heaven-accessing Secret Land as a trial.
As a detached disciple of the Tianji Pavilion, he naturally knew about the grudges between the Four Holy Gates. But he didn't intend to expose the young man's background. Otherwise, the young man would inevitably become the target of public criticism, and that would be his fault.
"Ka Cha Cha!"
Finally, the golem could no longer bear the heavy burden and broke into pieces. Under everyone's vigilance, the thunder and lightning around the golem's body were exhausted. The base of the golem's statue cracked and collapsed. Its gigantic body kept shedding its stone shell. Green-gray stone powder fell from the sky, getting lower and lower. The head that was hidden in the mist finally appeared in front of everyone for the first time.
What kind of head was that? The crowd looked at each other and didn't know what to do. Even Tian Xuanzi wondered if he had guessed wrong. This statue was not a demon's remnant, but the legendary statue of Erlang Shen.
The head was that of a man who looked very similar to a human. He had a straight nose, a square mouth, and a pair of resolute eyes. He looked quite handsome, but there was a vertical pupil on his forehead. Although it was a stone statue, no matter from which angle they looked at it, it was as if the man with the vertical pupil was staring at them, which gave them goosebumps.
As if it had taken off a layer of clothes, the statue became thinner and smaller. From a towering statue that reached into the clouds, it became a new statue that was only hundreds of feet tall. Although the material was the same, it was filled with an inexplicable charm because of the three-eyed head.
"Roar!"
With a loud roar, the sea of lightning in the sky suddenly disappeared. The surroundings were still covered in gray mist, but the visibility had obviously improved, which made people feel as if they were suddenly enlightened.
