Nuwa.
Qi Ying came across this name in some mysterious stories.
In those mysterious stories, it is indeed said that Nuwa is the ancestor of mankind, and there is a saying that Nuwa made humans out of clay, but everyone just thinks that these are stories made up by ignorant mortals.
No idea.
From what Xuan Qing told, the human race all over the world was really created by Nuwa
"Nu Wa is a god." Xuan Qing seemed to be recalling something and spoke very slowly, "But although she is a god, after creating humans, she became a saint and the first saint. She is both a human being and a saint. The ancestor of the saint is also the ancestor of the saint!"
"Saints, gods!"
Qi Ying thought of these two titles again.
He learned about saints from White Ape. From White Ape's story, saints and gods are opposite to each other. In the same way, the great sages and mythical beasts are also opposite.
but.
Judging from Xuan Qing's narrative, the opposition between saints and gods is by no means a simple opposition.
According to Bai Yuan's narration, the gods are the fusion of the origin of heaven and earth, and the saints are immortal existences when they break away from the shackles of the great road, but the saints are more advanced than the gods.
Qi Ying didn't believe it from the beginning.
Because the ancestor of White Ape is a great sage, the legends left by their tribe will definitely put gold on the face of their ancestors.
"What kind of existence is a saint?" Qi Ying asked, "Why do gods become saints? Are saints on the same level as gods, or higher than gods?"
"The same level, or a higher level?" Xuan Qing asked in confusion, "Does it matter whether he is a saint or a god? A saint is a saint, and a god is a god. The two have no influence on each other. A god can be a saint, of course. It doesn’t have to be a saint. And a saint may not be a god.”
This paragraph almost got Qi Ying involved.
But I soon figured it out.
What Xuan Qing said is basically that a man can be an old man or not, and an old man may not be a man. in this way.
But this did not make Qi Ying's understanding of saints clearer, but made it even vaguer: "So, what exactly is a saint? Why did Nuwa become a saint?"
"A saint is a being who is recognized by the will of heaven and earth and is not influenced by the Dao. Saints only appeared after the birth of the human race. Later, the demon race had existences similar to saints. They did not want to be called the same title as the human race saints, so they called themselves great saints. Xuan Qing explained, "Since the distinction between saints and great saints was established, the gods have been divided into gods and beasts. The gods of the demon race are called sacred beasts, and the gods of other races are collectively called gods."
This almost confused Qi Ying again.
But after thinking about it, I understood: "In other words, there are gods first, then saints, then great saints, and then there are mythical beasts?"
"Yes. In fact, there is no essential difference between gods and beasts, saints and great saints. They are just different races. But at that time, the demon race, which was the largest among all races, and the gradually rising human race began to confront each other, and the distinction between them became clear, so there was a distinction in titles. ." There seemed to be a hint of a wry smile in Xuan Qing's voice, "The ancient catastrophe started from that time on."
Qi Ying was a little confused.
It turns out that what I knew before was wrong again!
The ancient catastrophe did not begin with the conflict between saints and gods, but with the conflict between humans and monsters!
after.
Qi Ying learned more things from Xuan Qing's story.
Monster race is a general term. Among all races, many races are called demon race. In fact, more than two-thirds of all races in ancient times are demon race.
The demon clan has existed since the birth of the world.
In addition to the demon clan, there are also major witch clans, major true spirit clans, etc... These are the ancient clans.
Among all the races in ancient times, the human race was the last to be born.
Or.
Only the human race is a race created by gods!
Other races are inherently present in heaven and earth, or are born from heaven and earth.
In Xuan Qing's story, heaven and earth began with a primitive creature, and this primitive creature was called the "Great God." After the Great God created the world, he transformed into the will of heaven and earth, and his original body transformed into the matter and energy of heaven and earth. , some substances become new creatures in the world.
For example, the Qinglong clan comes from some of the essence in the eyes of the great god.
Later, one of the great god's eyes turned into a star between heaven and earth. That star exuded the true fire of the sun. From the true fire of the sun, the Golden Crow clan was born.
The great god's kidney orifice turned into the sea, and the Kunpeng clan was born in the sea.
The pus and blood that flowed out when the great god opened up the world is the witch clan.
etc…
Only the human race was created by the goddess Nuwa.
"Nu Wa created humans and was recognized by the will of the great god. Nuwa became the first saint, and the human race has a new power given by the great god - luck." Xuan Qing said with emotion, "All races have no luck. Only the human race is lucky! Since then, the demon clan and the human race have been at odds with each other. But at the beginning, the human race was weak, and the demon clan did not take the human race seriously at all. But gradually, more and more people were born in the human race. Gods, more saints! The conflict between the demon race and the human race finally intensified under this situation."
"So, the war has begun?"
Qi Ying asked.
"There have always been wars. There have been endless battles between the major demon clans. There are also some true spirit clans and wizard clans who have been overlords for a generation! At first, the war between the demon clan and the human clan was still small in scale and limited to The fight between mortals. But later, the gods also began to conflict..." Xuan Qing's tone began to become gloomy at this point.
Qi Ying wanted to ask something more.
Xuan Qing sighed: "Hey, little mouse, I have told you enough things today. You can go. Don't tell anyone what I am doing here, especially the people of the Qinglong Saint Clan. You can't tell .Of course, I’m not afraid of what you say.”
"Um?"
Qi Ying's expression changed.
It is understandable that Xuan Qing does not want to reveal the location of his body. After all, Xuan Qing does not admit that the Qinglong Saint Clan is his blood descendant, and the Qinglong Saint Clan will definitely come to collect it after learning that Xuan Qing's body is here.
but.
From what Xuan Qing said, does he have something to rely on
"Little mouse, I have planted an idea in you. As long as you mention this place to outsiders, or mention things about me, this idea will happen immediately, and your soul will be wiped out." Xuan Qing's voice said , with a hint of a successful smile, "If you don't believe it, just give it a try and see if it's really the case?"
"Don't dare, don't dare."
Qi Ying really didn't dare. Although the other party was just a wisp of obsession, who knew how powerful he was
The power of obsession is no weaker than that of souls or remnant souls.
The original Mr. Li had also been dead for countless years in the Ziji Continent. However, Mr. Li's power could still display terrifying power at that time.
