“Fellow Daoist Meng is very polite, but the location to be teleported into Spirit Demon Island is random, so let’s go our separate ways.”
Without waiting for Meng Sang to persuade her again, the Scorpion Woman politely declined his proposal and took Xu Chunniang away from Meng Sang and the other two.
Seeing that the king was rejected twice, Meng Sang's followers felt sorry for their king.
"Your Majesty, Swallow Fish and Scorpion Woman have repeatedly rejected your kindness. This is too ungrateful. In my humble opinion, they don't take you seriously at all. Do you want me to help you teach them a lesson?"
"Yes, Your Majesty. Although the Swallow Fish and the Scorpion Woman have some abilities, they are far inferior to Your Majesty."
Meng Sang put away the smile on his face and shook his head.
"Spirit Demon Island is about to open, there is no need to create trouble at this time. There are so many people around here. Since they have no intention of cooperating, I will find someone else."
"yes."
Meng Sang looked around and quickly found a new target. He walked forward without leaving a trace and started to cling to a few people.
The Scorpion Woman, who had not yet walked far, accidentally caught a glimpse of this scene, and a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
"When I first met Meng Sang, he looked very aloof, but I didn't expect him to be so sociable."
Xu Chunniang smiled faintly, "Perhaps, when we first met, he saw that we were not some powerful demons and felt that we were not worthy of his friendship."
"Then he was wrong."
The Scorpion Woman muttered something, found a cave as a temporary place to stay, and excitedly talked with Xu Chunniang about the Lingmo Island which was about to be officially opened.
“It is said that there is a legacy of true demons and true immortals on the Spirit Demon Island. Not only us demon cultivators, but also spiritual cultivators from the spirit world will come here. I have lived for so long and have never seen a spiritual cultivator.
It is said that their cultivation method is completely different from that of the demons. I really want to see if they have three heads and six arms. "
Xu Chunniang laughed. The Scorpion Woman actually said that she had never seen a spiritual practitioner, but she didn't know that there was one right in front of her.
No, if you count the swallowfish, there should be two.
Although I don’t know how Yanyu did it, there is no doubt that there is spiritual energy in her body.
However, neither she nor Yanyu can be considered as pure spiritual practitioners now.
Especially her, her demonic body and her real body have completely merged, and even the demonic energy and spiritual energy have all been transformed into vital energy.
She was not following the path of spiritual practice nor the path of demonic practice, but the two paths had the same end and were both in line with the Tao, which made the Tao she practiced even more perfect.
“There is nothing special about spiritual cultivation. Like demonic cultivation, they have many races, and each race has a different appearance.
When practicing spiritual cultivation, one absorbs spiritual energy, which is pure, neutral and completely different from demonic energy. Therefore, spiritual cultivation requires a more stable temperament. "
The Scorpion Lady listened intently, "Your Excellency seems to be familiar with spiritual practice?"
Xu Chunniang's eyes showed a distant look, "I used to be a spiritual practitioner for many years."
The Scorpion Lady was really shocked this time, "My Lord, are you from the spirit world?"
"yes."
Xu Chunniang had no intention of hiding it from the Scorpion Woman. She would be leaving in three years anyway.
"The reason why I want to go to the Spirit Demon Island is to use this opportunity to return to the spirit world."
"I see. No wonder the master said that once I enter the Spirit Demon Island, I will be free."
The Scorpion Woman’s mood instantly fell, “My Lord, now that you have returned to the spirit world, will I never see you again
I heard that the barrier between the spirit world and the demon world is very strong, and it takes three or five demon kings to break it. I definitely can’t do it with my level of cultivation.”
Xu Chunniang patted her shoulder and said, "You were born a demon cultivator. Even if you go to the spirit world, it will be difficult for you to adapt to the environment there. With your aptitude, as long as you practice hard, you will have a chance to explore the avenue."
"Your Excellency is right. I can't always follow you around forever."
The Scorpion Woman pulled herself together and smiled, "Sir, please tell me more about your past in the spirit world. I have never heard you talk about this before."
"The spirit world..."
There was a look of reminiscence in Xu Chunniang's eyes.
"The people there are very smart. Whether it's refining pills, refining talismans, or formations and refining equipment, they started to get in touch with these when their cultivation was very low."
"How low is it? Could it be that they have started learning these things at the Spiritual Transformation Stage?"
The Scorpion Woman opened her eyes wide with curiosity, and thought that spiritual practice was truly amazing.
Xu Chunniang smiled, raised her index finger and shook it.
"No, they start learning these in the foundation-building stage, and some even in the Qi training stage."
"hiss!"
The Scorpion Woman gasped, shock and worry showing in her eyes.
"Is this true? These spiritual practitioners are too scary. When I was in the foundation-building stage, I was still groggy and hadn't yet awakened. How could they learn such complicated things!"
"Spiritual practitioners are different from demonic practitioners. They practice very slowly. It takes several years to go from the Qi Refining Stage to the Foundation Establishment Stage, even in the spiritual world with abundant spiritual energy."
"So long?"
"certainly."
Xu Chunniang nodded affirmatively, "Spiritual cultivation is very slow. The further you go in the future, the slower the speed will be. The time required will also increase exponentially. Some people with poor aptitude will need more time."
The Scorpion Lady understood that since spiritual practice was slow, they naturally had to learn other things to increase their strength, so it was no surprise that they were exposed to the various arts of spiritual practice at a young age.
"What about overall strength? Which one is stronger, the spirit world or the demon world? If the spirit world and the demon world fight, who will be better?"
There was a thoughtful look in Xu Chunniang's eyes. She had never thought about this question before.
There are tens of thousands of races in the spiritual world, and three thousand continents in the demon world.
Although spiritual practitioners are proficient in all arts of cultivation, in terms of cultivation, demonic practitioners are faster, and it seems that the overall strength of demonic practitioners is stronger.
However, the weaknesses of the demon cultivators are equally obvious. They are afraid of thunder magic and extremely hard and masculine things.
"It's hard to say. Both sides have advantages, but I don't think the spirit world and the demon world can fight."
"Why?"
"If a spiritual cultivator loses the spiritual energy to rely on in the demon world, he will be unable to move forward. Vice versa, if a demon cultivator falls into the spirit world, he will face the same dilemma."
There is one thing Xu Chunniang didn't mention. Whether it is the spiritual world or the demon world, there are extremely cruel struggles within.
The myriad races in the spiritual world are fighting against each other, and no one is willing to submit to anyone else. Meanwhile, fights of all sizes have never ceased among the three thousand states in the demon world.
Whether it is the spiritual world or the demon world, it is impossible for them to unite and face the outside world.
"Well, it seems that there will be no battle between the spirit world and the demon world in the short term."
The Scorpion Woman's tone was somewhat disappointed, but she became more excited when she thought about the Spirit Demon Island that was about to open.
Once we get to the Spirit Demon Island, we can officially fight with those spiritual practitioners.
Xu Chunniang saw her intention and reminded her, "Since becoming a god, spiritual practitioners have come into contact with laws. If you want to not lose to them, you need to continue to work hard."
"Don't worry, sir. I will never embarrass you!"
After the Scorpion Woman made the promise solemnly, she walked to the corner holding the bone book and continued to comprehend it.
