On this day, a man who claimed to be the messenger of the White Ape King came and brought news from the White Ape King.
He was a man who looked like an old farmer in his sixties.
"From today on, Shennongjia will be assigned to the White Ape King's territory. If outsiders enter without permission, and something unexpected happens, don't say I didn't warn you!" the man said solemnly. "If the human government disagrees, then we will continue the war. I don't know how many millions of losses you humans will suffer! Will I die first, or will your land be turned into scorched earth first!"
During the live broadcast, the man solemnly stated the words of the White Ape King.
"Traitor, traitor to the Han dynasty, no, this is a traitor to the people!"
"You are also a human being, how can you speak for an ape!"
"This White Ape King is too arrogant. He is just relying on his cultivation to be so arrogant!"
"Drawing the land and claiming to be the king, who does this monkey think he is? Does he really think he is Sun Wukong?"
There was a lot of excitement on the Internet, and many people even wanted to go to the scene to teach the old farmer a lesson.
However, someone soon discovered that the old farmer had dull eyes and did not look like an ordinary human being at all.
An official statement was immediately issued, saying that this man was originally just an ordinary old farmer near Shennongjia, but his mind was controlled by someone and he came out to convey the words of the White Ape King.
This kind of thing was also very common in ancient times. Many old friends saw fox fairies transformed into beautiful women. In fact, there were no beautiful women at all. They were all illusions seen by the affected spirits.
In fact, it is no different from this old farmer.
Some powerful monsters can use their powerful mental powers to influence the minds of ordinary people, and can even control ordinary people.
Of course, they are helpless against some powerful practitioners. Even the warriors seem to be powerless against the evil spirits, but their strong qi and blood are enough to make them immune to most mental attacks.
Many people were shocked and angry. Not only did the white ape not die in the army's encirclement, but on the contrary, it actually expressed its desire to carve out a territory and confront humans through the old farmer.
"We absolutely cannot agree to it. If we agree to this ape, what will happen if other monsters make similar requests? You know, this white ape is not the only one who has achieved success in cultivation. There are many other monsters as well, and there will be more and more of them in the future!"
Many people are discussing this issue heatedly online, but the vast majority of people are in favor of not giving in, although there are also some people who want peace to be the most valuable thing and that all species in the world can coexist peacefully.
However, more people are not confused. They certainly see clearly that this is a struggle for living space.
There is only this much space in the whole world. If every successful demon species were to carve out a large territory to establish itself as a king, there would be no room for human survival.
Throughout history, humans have defeated countless other species, not to mention other species, they have also defeated and wiped out countless other sub-races, before they finally occupied the territories of all continents.
The process of humanity's rise was accompanied by wars of blood and fire. To want to coexist peacefully with other monsters at this time was seen as a joke by many people.
The government quickly sent people to contact the old farmer and learned that his mind was being controlled and that the person behind it was the will of the White Ape King, or even the White Ape King himself.
"You will not have a good ending if you act recklessly and perversely like this!"
The government official said with gritted teeth.
The old farmer's eyes were dull, but he had a strange smile on his face. He said, "The so-called perverse behavior is based on your human standards, but among our demon group, the one with the biggest fist is the king. You want to kill me, do you expect me to surrender?"
The old farmer's words immediately left the government official who was questioning him speechless.
It is indeed as the White Ape King said, the human army is surrounding it, so how can it surrender
However, this answer was clear, well-reasoned, and logical, but it also made many people shudder.
Because what this represents is that the White Ape King does indeed have intelligence comparable to that of humans, just as many people have speculated, and it is possible that his intelligence even exceeds that of ordinary people.
"In any case, it is a fact that you have killed and injured tens of thousands of people. Do you still want to rule the country today?" the government official said coldly.
"Why not? Times have changed. Once upon a time, your human brains evolved wisdom first, and you used wisdom as a weapon to defeat various races and eventually became the hegemon of the world!" the old farmer continued. "But now that spiritual energy has revived, it is not only for you humans, and wisdom is not something that only you humans have!"
"You are surprised to see that I have wisdom, but you don't know that other demon kings have similar wisdom!" The old farmer smiled proudly. "In the past, I was confused like a walking corpse, and I only knew how to find food to fill my stomach. If I hadn't accidentally taken a strange fruit, I wouldn't have become enlightened and able to practice!"
The old farmer nonchalantly revealed a shocking secret: the reason why the White Ape King was able to practice and escape from the ranks of wild beasts was because he had taken a certain kind of exotic fruit.
This statement caused a great sensation on the Internet, and many people even thought about going to the deep mountains and old forests to look for it, hoping that one day they would be able to see some kind of exotic fruit, have an adventure, and start their path of cultivation.
"We monsters were originally ordinary beasts. With every step forward in cultivation, our wisdom will increase significantly. After practicing to my level, our wisdom is not inferior to that of you humans!" the old farmer said calmly. "Do you know why I am going to such great lengths to tell you all this? Because I want to tell you that what is in front of you now is not a beast that knows nothing and only knows how to eat and wait for death every day, but a brand new creature with wisdom that is equal to you!"
"No, in the new era, we are gods!"
A smug smile appeared on the old farmer's face.
"As the changes in heaven and earth deepen, we will only become stronger and stronger. Sooner or later, we will transcend the nine heavens. I know you have nuclear weapons with infinite power, but I advise you not to use them lightly. You have also seen many mysteries in Shennongjia. Even if you have nuclear weapons, you can't nuke the entire Shennongjia!"
"You humans rely on nuclear weapons to maintain your pitiful last bit of self-esteem, but this is a brand new era. The rules are completely different. Only the strong can make the rules, and I am a strong man in this new era!"
