Chapter 148 The Secret of the Demon Tribe
Xuan Kun put on a black mask and his cultivation was no longer hidden. His cultivation in the late Jindan stage was exposed.
After all, the tide of monsters outside the Monster Hunting Wall has just passed, and there must be many high-level monks watching this battlefield.
If he concealed his cultivation, he might be discovered and inevitably be questioned. After all, the tide of monsters had passed, and Jindan cultivators should no longer be forcibly recruited.
Xuan Kun turned into a beam of light and headed towards the shop opened by Bingxue Lingting.
When he arrived at the door, he showed the token given to him by Xueyan, and he had a smooth journey to see the beautiful and charming manager Xueyan.
When Xueyan saw the fluctuation of Xuan Kun's aura, her eyes moved, and a barely perceptible fluctuation flashed across them.
He laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Aikun has made remarkable progress in his cultivation. I didn't expect that after not seeing you for a year, you have already entered the late Jindan stage. You truly have extraordinary talent!"
Hearing this polite compliment, Xuan Kun also smiled, "Haha, thank you Manager Xueyan for collecting all the spiritual medicines for me! Otherwise, how could I have made such rapid progress?"
Seeing this, Xueyan stopped playing dumb and beckoned, and a cup of tea floated towards Xuan Kun. She stared at him straight in the eyes and revealed the purpose of Xuan Kun's visit in one sentence.
"Fellow Daoist, I'm afraid you didn't come here for me to congratulate you on your breakthrough! Instead, you came here to inquire about the situation of this monster tide."
Xuan Kun's smile froze, and he nodded, "Fellow Daoist Xueyan is truly intelligent. The moment she saw me, she knew exactly what I was thinking. You're truly amazing."
Then he changed the subject and said seriously, "I just want to find out about the current monster tide and the secret of recruiting Jindan cultivators."
Xueyan saw that Xuan Kun was speaking frankly and directly stated his purpose after she pointed it out, and she also smiled gently.
Hehe said, "Haha, forget about the monster tide situation. Daoist friend, do you know the secret you asked about last time? How much is it worth? How could I, a small manager, know such a thing?"
Hearing her words, Xuan Kun understood that she certainly knew about it, otherwise she would not have said it like that, but this news must have involved the other party's high-level cultivators, perhaps Nascent Soul cultivators, or even higher-level God Transformation cultivators.
Xuan Kun could only give up and pondered, "Since Fellow Daoist Xueyan said so, I won't ask any more questions. Let's talk about this monster tide! The price is negotiable."
Seeing this, Xueyan on the opposite side nodded slightly, picked up the teacup on the table, took a sip, and put it down.
Then he said, "Since you are so straightforward, I will tell you everything I know."
After that, he began to explain.
It turns out that the tide of monsters was initiated by the monster race. Unlike humans, the monster race is born as mortals and needs to practice to achieve immortality.
Many monsters in the demon clan have strong strength as long as they reach adulthood. They can even break through the limitations of their own bloodline by chance and enter a higher level, eventually becoming transformed monsters.
The lifespan of the demon race is extremely long, so there are many demons that have transformed into human form, and even demons that have transformed into gods.
Therefore, it is necessary to control the low-level demon tribes, and classify the demon tribes in the west bordering the Demon Hunting Wall as demon tribes in transformed form. After a certain period of time, the excessively multiplied demon tribes will be driven towards the Demon Hunting Wall.
Therefore, a tide of monsters is formed. In the west, monsters that break through the eighth level can transform and bring some of their people back to the real monster territory. The Monster King will divide the territory for their survival.
After hearing this, Xuan Kun's expression froze, and he couldn't help but want to take out the demon map that Shan Mingze gave him and take a look at it.
Xuan Kun's expression suddenly changed, and he asked, "Fellow Daoist Xueyan, it seems this has nothing to do with recruiting Jindan cultivators! If it were a demon below the Transformation stage, the numerous Yuanying cultivators stationed at the Monster Hunting Great Wall, or even the Divine Transformation cultivators, could easily take care of it."
Xueyan looked at Xuan Kun with a mysterious smile. Seeing this smile, Xuan Kun was stunned. His mind raced and he couldn't help but understand her smile.
"Yes! If that's the case, how could the demon clan let it go? The leaders of both sides must have reached a consensus that only cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage can take action, so they attach such great importance to recruiting Jindan cultivators."
Xuan Kun did not say this out loud, but just guessed it in his mind without taking any action.
Xueyan just looked at Xuan Kun. She knew that Xuan Kun must have guessed something, but she still kept that smile.
Then he slowly spoke, "I think you should have guessed it. That's right, the Monster Tide can only be attacked by those below the Nascent Soul stage, so so many Jindan cultivators were recruited."
"This time is the same as before, but also different. The same thing is that it's a tide of monsters, but the difference is that this tide is exceptionally huge. Obviously, it's not just monsters from the western part of the monster tribe, there may also be some monsters from within the monster tribe."
"The monster tide came with great force, directly crushing the battle lines set up by the righteous path, causing them to suffer heavy losses. It was not until the Jindan cultivators of the demonic path arrived that they joined forces to repel the monster tide."
After hearing this, Xuan Kun couldn't help but think of the two ant nests under the tree in his own yard. They were in the same situation. They were attacked by black ants at the entrance of the cave, and then a group of large red ants appeared and blocked them.
Other red ants came from the tree and drove back the black ants.
Xuan Kun asked for a lot of information, left a bag of spirit stones, and then turned and left.
It turned into a beam of light and shot towards the gate of the Monster Hunting Great Wall. At this moment, the tide of monsters had receded and the gate had been opened. Before Xuan Kun flew out, he saw countless corpses of monsters outside through the huge gate.
As he escaped from the city gate, a shocking and bloody scene came into view, and the endless bloody smell was blown towards Xuan Kun's face by the wind.
In front of Xuan Kun were the remains of countless huge monster corpses, as well as many small monster corpses, and below them were many corpses of human monks.
There were broken limbs and debris everywhere, and not a single body was intact. Blood was flowing on the ground, and many bloody pits had formed in the bumpy places.
The scene was extremely tragic. When Xuan Kun scanned with his spiritual sense, he found many seventh-level monsters, as well as quite a few fifth- and sixth-level monsters. There were countless monsters below fifth level. The corpses were lying on the ground, spread to places invisible to the naked eye, covering everywhere.
Like human cultivators, many Jindan cultivators died. Xuan Kun could feel their breath, but could not see their bodies.
The largest of them are the corpses of Qi-refining and foundation-building cultivators. The lowest level of Qi-refining cultivators is the ninth or tenth level, and most of them are cultivators in the late stage of Qi-refining.
After all, if a low-level Qi Refining cultivator appeared here, he would probably die in just a moment.
At this moment on the battlefield, many cultivators were cleaning the battlefield, clearing out their own kind and monsters.
Looking at this scene, Xuan Kun narrowed his eyes and frowned the whole time.
This scene couldn't help but repeat the last scene of the Red Ants, cleaning up the corpses left on the battlefield between the two tribes...
