After returning to Yuanzong.
Qin Shujian washed up briefly first.
In fact, at his level, he has already reached the level of being spotless, and whether he washes or not has no impact.
but.
He is still used to doing this.
And for such a habit.
Qin Shujian has no intention of changing it.
Inside the Chengwu Hall.
All the elders of Yuan Zong's branch lines, the elders of the inner sect of the main line, and the heads of the three halls all gathered here.
In the main hall, everything remained calm.
Everyone's attention fell on Qin Shujian, who was in charge.
Until now.
They have not yet recovered from the fact that the beast tide has been wiped out.
How many monsters are there in the world
Someone made a rough estimate, and it was at least more than 200,000.
Such a large number of monsters.
They were all killed in an instant.
Even as human beings, they felt a chill in their hearts.
more importantly.
No one knows when Qin Shujian set up such a huge formation in various places.
Many people originally thought that.
Those eight stone statues are just the sect’s beliefs.
Although people have been worshiping it every day, it has not revealed any strange phenomena, and over time no one cares about it.
Until now.
Zheng Fang and others knew that the inconspicuous stone statue would be one of the eyes of a terrifying formation.
Making offerings every day may be a way to accumulate strength for the stone statues.
at this time.
Many people have such thoughts in their minds.
but.
Qin Shujian didn't say it clearly, so no one could be completely sure. After all, such a method was a bit beyond ordinary people's understanding.
After a little silence.
Qin Shujian was the first to break the silence, cast his gaze on Zheng Fang, and said, "Great Elder, what are the casualties of our sect in this beast wave?"
Hear the words.
Zheng Fang pondered for a moment and said: "This time, a total of 973 disciples of our sect were killed, and a total of 53 deacons were killed. Among them, 78 were killed in the Spiritual God Realm."
The words fell.
The atmosphere in the hall was also somewhat solemn.
Nearly a thousand monks were killed in the battle at once, including seventy-eight spiritual-god realm warriors, which was a large number.
For some spiritual realm sects.
Such casualties were enough to destroy the entire sect.
Although compared to Yuan Zong's powerful strength, such a loss is not enough to break the bones, but if you think about it seriously, it is definitely not light.
Qin Shujian's expression remained as usual, and no one could tell his inner thoughts.
Xu Yuanming said in a deep voice: "Our sect is facing the tide of beasts in the endless mountains. Such damage is inevitable."
"Do you know the reason for this beast wave?"
"The demon-slaying formation pattern left by the sect master originally blocked the steps of the monster beast. Later, the shadow of a giant wolf appeared, and then shattered the demon-slaying formation pattern. According to my guess, it should be the method of heaven and man."
Xiang Haoqian on one side said in a deep voice.
With his Divine Martial Realm means, he can naturally distinguish whether it is an attack at the level of a celestial being.
In particular, the Demon-Slaying Formation is extremely restrained against monsters.
Even the monster beasts in the divine martial realm have no possibility of breaking the demon-slaying array pattern.
"The phantom of the Giant Wolf?"
"A strike from heaven?"
After hearing Xiang Haoqian's words, Qin Shujian finally understood why the demon-slaying formation pattern he left behind was broken.
"According to what Elder Xiang said, there is no doubt that the person who took action must be the demon clan." At this point, Qin Shujian looked at the sleepy Niu Dali and said, "Elder Niu."
"ah?"
"This time of rampant beast tide, why didn't it affect the Liger Plain?"
"Well, maybe they saw that we are all of the same race, so they didn't do anything." After thinking for a long time, Niu Dali suppressed these words.
to be honest.
He is still a little confused until now.
Not to mention Qin Shujian.
Even Niu Dali himself didn't expect to understand why he didn't take action against the Liger Plain when the beast tide passed through.
Think about going.
The only thing that can be explained is that they are members of the same clan.
Hearing this, Qin Shujian was noncommittal.
In his sight, Niu Dali's loyalty has always been very high, so there is no possibility of betrayal.
Looking at the other party's confused look, it was obvious that he didn't know why the monster didn't attack the liger plain.
A great explanation for Niu Dali.
Qin Shujian also somewhat agreed in his heart.
Monsters take orders from the monster clan.
Strictly speaking, Niu Dali is actually a member of the monster clan, so it is natural for the monsters to be in awe.
As for the opponent being a demon clan.
Is there any possibility of betraying Yuan Zong
Seeing the other party's loyalty, Qin Shujian shook his head.
This bull demon.
Maybe there is no racial justice in my heart.
If even this loyalty can be betrayed in a blink of an eye, then there will be very few people in Yuanzong who can be trusted.
At this moment.
Others in Yuanzong also looked at Niu Dali, and they were also puzzled as to why the Liger Plain was not affected.
to the other party’s explanation.
Qin Shujian believed it in his heart, but they sneered.
Monsters tend to kill each other among their own kind.
Fighting continues all year round in the Endless Mountains, and there is no concept of the same race.
However, Qin Shujian didn't ask further questions, so they couldn't ask too much.
When he felt the eyes on him moving away, Niu Dali leaned on the chair again, looking like he was dozing off.
Compared to his indifference.
Qin Shujian was a little shocked in his heart.
The fourth level of spiritual martial arts!
Royal air realm!
Just how long has passed, the strength of this bull demon has increased again, and it has directly reached the level of air control.
Such a speed of increasing strength.
He has to wonder whether the other party can also use the source of life to improve his realm.
In all NPCs.
Niu Dali can be regarded as the one whose strength has improved the fastest among Qin Shujian's knowledge.
"It seems that this bull demon has other opportunities. Otherwise, his strength would not have improved so quickly."
Qin Shujian thought to himself.
However, he had no intention of exploring the other party's opportunity.
Your own opportunity is the biggest opportunity, there is no need to covet too much.
As for everyone else.
After hearing Qin Shujian mention the demon clan, some people's expressions changed slightly, while others showed some doubts.
Not everyone.
They can all understand the past of the demon clan.
But anyone who knows the past of the Monster Clan can understand how terrifying the Monster Clan is.
Just think of this.
Xiang Haoqian said in a deep voice: "Sect Master, when the Human Emperor was still alive, the demon clan could not escape from the Endless Mountains. Now that the human emperor has passed away, the demon clan immediately set off a wave of beasts. This move inevitably makes people doubt its motives."
"As far as I know, this beast tide did not affect our Yuan Zong area. Even if there are beast tides in other areas, this is probably the demon clan's declaration of war against us."
"The Demon Clan is so powerful that even though thousands of years have passed, the Human Emperor has not wiped it out. If the Demon Clan really wants to fight for the Jokhang Territory again, I can't bear to wait!"
In his opinion.
If the Yao clan really wants to compete with Da Zhao for dominance, this is no longer a matter of dynasty change, but an irreconcilable conflict between the two clans.
In the past, the demon clan was defeated.
He was driven into the Endless Mountains by the Human Emperor and abandoned all the great rivers and mountains in the outside world.
Now the monsters are coming again.
If the human race is defeated, if they are lucky, they may be able to hide elsewhere like the demon race and wait for the opportunity to make a comeback in the future.
If you have bad luck.
Maybe it would be the end of the genocide.
in this case.
No one can be alone.
As a great monk in the divine martial realm, Xiang Haoqian knows more than anyone else.
Although he did not have the opportunity to experience the battle between the human race and the demon race in person.
But I also knew it.
Although the human race won that battle, the forces that were destroyed due to the war were immeasurable. Even the imperial court itself suffered heavy losses. In the first battle, almost half of the human race's population was wiped out.
Until thousands of years passed.
Such losses were gradually recovered.
Such a result.
Or because the human emperor suppressed the clan.
Now that the Human Emperor has passed away, there is no second Human Emperor in the world.
If the two races start a war, it will definitely be more tragic and more terrifying than thousands of years ago.
Don't look at Yuan Zong's current power.
If you really stand in the way of such a general trend, you will turn into ashes in an instant.
Qin Shujian said: "How much does Hall Master Xiang know about the demon clan?"
"I don't know much, but I know a little bit." Xiang Haoqian pondered for a moment and then said: "The demon race has a very strong reproductive ability. In the past, when they competed with the human race for the world, their huge numbers were even more terrifying than the human race.
The monsters in the Endless Mountains are actually the products of monsters and ordinary beasts, somewhere between half monster and half beast.
These monster beasts have not only inherited the cultivation talents of the monster clan, but also inherited the low intelligence of the beasts. Although they are not recognized by the monster clan, in terms of strength and quantity, they are a big help to the monster clan. "
Speaking of which.
He paused and continued: "Some people once speculated that the number of monsters in the Endless Mountains might be greater than the number of humans!"
Hear this.
Except for Qin Shujian, everyone in the hall changed their expressions.
There are more monsters than humans.
What a concept this is.
No one can accurately say how many human races there are in the billion-mile territory of Da Zhao.
But one thing is for sure.
The number of human beings is at least a hundred billion, or even as many as a trillion.
Under such premise.
If the number of monster beasts were the same or exceeded, it would be too terrifying.
After all, among the huge population base of the human race, there are still many ordinary people who do not know how to practice. As for the monsters, no matter how weak they are, they will be much stronger than ordinary people when they reach adulthood.
Thus.
The gap between the two sides is too obvious.
"What I said to Elder Xiang is a bit exaggerated. If there are really such a number of monsters, why have they not set foot out of the Endless Mountains for so many years? Is it just because of the human emperor's fright?"
"I just heard about it."
Xiang Haogan smiled lightly and shook his head, then looked solemn again.
"But one thing is certain, every few months, the imperial court will send a large number of strong men into the Endless Mountains, with the purpose of killing monster beasts."
It’s the last day of the month. Please vote for me. Brothers and sisters who still have monthly votes can vote!
