Chapter 450: The Sorrow of Years, Xuanyuan Baojian
Chapter 450: The Sorrow of Years, Xuanyuan Baojian
The human race, on the other hand, has only risen step by step since the end of ancient times and the beginning of the Middle Ages, and has become the protagonist of this world.
Therefore, a long time ago, not only the Demon State, but also the rest of the continents were under the rule of the Demon Clan.
Since this is a fact, there is no need to be conceited or to refute unreasonably.
"Don't be afraid, keep talking."
Seeing that Hei Feng was much more cautious in his words, Zhong Changsheng said immediately.
"Hoohoo!"
Heifeng breathed a sigh of relief and said, "One million years ago, human races from other continents traveled across the ocean and came here."
"They have built human cities one after another on the northern coastline of Demon God State, and they continue to enter the inland mountains to hunt demons!"
"Later, the conflict between the human race and the demon race deepened day by day. The demon temple was furious and dispatched a large number of demon troops to attack the human city in all directions and massacre the human race."
"Since then, a thousand-year war has begun between the human race and the demon race on the Demon Divine State, known as the Thousand-Year War!"
"In this race war that has lasted for thousands of years, the Demon Temple has always had the upper hand for an extremely long period of time, pushing the human race on the Demon God Continent to the brink of extinction dozens of times."
"However, whenever it comes to a critical moment of life and death, there are always some strong people in the human race who rise up like comets and lead their people through the difficulties and stabilize them!"
"In addition, on several other continents, there are also a steady stream of human beings coming across the sea and settling here."
"The war lasted for thousands of years, and both sides suffered heavy losses!"
Heifeng said: "However, for high-level demon clans, especially those with extremely pure and noble blood, the time it takes to reproduce and grow is much longer than that of the human race. Therefore, after going back and forth, it is the demon clan that suffers some losses. heavy!"
"Later, the master of the Demon Temple personally took action, massacred dozens of human cities, kidnapped countless mortals, and forced the leaders of the human race on the Demon Shenzhou Continent at that time to issue a plan to fight against each other on the Demon Shenzhou Continent in the name of their respective ethnic groups. A pledge of inner demons not to violate.”
"At this point, the war between humans and monsters that lasted for nearly ten thousand years has come to an end."
Zhong Changsheng frowned.
"In the name of the clan, make a vow to the inner demons?"
He had never heard of such a statement before.
At least Zhong Changsheng couldn't figure out how to do this kind of thing right now.
After all, the so-called inner demon oath generally uses oneself as the medium to swear to the supreme law of the great road.
Unless the Demon Temple has the ability to make every human race and demon race on the Demon Shenzhou continent personally swear the inner demon oath, otherwise, in Zhong Changsheng's opinion, it is basically impossible to operate.
"Hehe, I know that."
Bai Xing smiled faintly and said: "Master, have you ever heard that there is a top-grade holy weapon on the Jiuzhou Continent called Xuanyuan Baojian?"
"Never!"
Although he had read many ancient books about the Nine Provinces Continent over the years, he had indeed never heard of the [Xuan Yuan Bao Jian].
Heifeng said: "[Xuan Yuan Baojian] is a top-quality holy weapon passed down from ancient times by our demon clan. To a certain extent, it can even make rules!"
"what?"
Zhong Changsheng's expression changed.
"Make rules?"
"In the world of Jiuzhou, only those who exist in the Immortal Realm can initially understand the power of laws. When you reach the Immortal Realm, you probably have a deeper understanding of the power of a certain law."
"At least, the existence of the Immortal Realm should not be able to make rules!"
"Doesn't it mean that the [Xuanyuan Treasure Mirror] corresponds to the existence of at least the Emperor Realm?"
Zhong Changsheng took a deep breath. He always felt that a weapon powerful enough to formulate rules could not exist in this world of Jiuzhou!
"Haha, Master misunderstood!"
"[Xuanyuan Baojian] is not that powerful yet!"
"First of all, the scope of the rules only covers a dozen large sects in the Demon God State and a dozen large cities in the human race. The rest of the places are not within the scope of the rules."
"In other words, in places without the protection of rules, mutual killings between humans and demons still often occur!"
"Secondly, if [Xuan Yuan Baojian] wants to formulate rules, it also needs to pay a huge price!"
"The price is the flesh, blood and souls of millions of creatures!"
"Every 500 years, [Xuan Yuan Baojian] needs to accept a sacrifice to serve as nourishment to maintain the operation of the rules!"
"For the sake of fairness, every 1000 years, the human race and the demon race need to send millions of living beings as sacrifices to the [Xuanyuan Treasure Mirror]."
Zhong Changsheng's brows wrinkled slightly, then relaxed again.
Every 1000 years, two million souls are sacrificed, which may seem like a lot, but if the human and demon clans fight for years, millions or even tens of millions of souls will die in just one year.
Therefore, although this condition for maintaining the operation of the rules sounds very cruel, it is still much gentler than the wars that have continued for thousands of years.
Over the years since he came to the world of Jiuzhou, Zhong Changsheng's biggest change is that he has gradually understood that if he wants to achieve any goal, he needs to pay a price.
Wanting to achieve a goal without paying any price can only appear in fairy tales, fantasies and dreams.
Although this condition is very cruel, there is no way to avoid the necessary price.
"Tell me, what kind of creatures are sent by the human race and the demon race?"
Heifeng said: "Some of the people sent out by the human race are sea monsters, some are mortals who are dying of life, and some are monsters captured in places where there are no rules!"
"It's similar for the demon clan. The number of one million is a lot for the human race, but it's nothing for us, the demon clan!"
"In the Demon God State, many demon clans are facing the situation of too many groups. Every once in a while, a beast tide will occur!"
"Therefore, the Demon Temple will urge all major demon clan forces to hand over a certain amount of creatures for sacrifice."
Zhong Changsheng nodded slightly, the situation was similar to what he imagined.
In this way, [Xuan Yuan Baojian] actually only plays the role of a communication channel. In fact, formulating rules still requires paying a heavy price.
In this case, as a top-level holy soldier, he can make rules, which is barely acceptable.
Heifeng continued: "This is just the cost of formulating rules like 'peace'. If we want to formulate some extremely harsh rules, the cost of [Xuan Yuan Baojian] will be countless times more terrible than this!"
"So, even with the [Xuan Yuan Bao Jian], the Demon Temple does not dare to make any rules!"
