Chapter 169 The Demon World is now so miserable
At this time, the phantom sound of the holy pillar became more and more rapid, and the spiritual magic crystal was suspended on the top of the holy pillar, shining brightly.
The group of monsters who rushed over were shocked to see the Lingyou Demon Crystal on the top that had been sealed for hundreds of years.
Then, there was ecstasy.
"Magic crystal, Lingyou magic crystal!"
The hedgehog monster was so excited that its voice changed in tone, and its chubby body jumped and leaped a few times in cheering.
Yan Xiong stepped forward and echoed in a gruff voice, "Yes, back then, this Spiritual Devil Crystal protected our Fantasy World. The demonic power was abundant, the cubs grew rapidly, and we could all cultivate with peace of mind.
But ever since it was sealed, the demonic power has become increasingly weak, and our lives have become increasingly difficult."
As Rock Bear spoke, he raised his paw and scratched his head.
Next to them, a colorful brocade sparrow chirped and joined in the conversation...
"That's right, I remember when I was a kid, under the light of the magic crystal, even the flowers bloomed extraordinarily brightly, and the fruits were big and sweet.
Later, without the nourishment of that demonic power, the environment became deteriorating, many fruit trees died, and we had a hard time finding food."
The monsters that arrived one after another were talking at the same time, and the quiet open space suddenly became lively.
Garen took a step forward and raised his paw to signal, and immediately the excited monsters below quieted down.
"Everyone, the reappearance of the Spiritual Devil Crystal is a blessing for our Fantasy World.
The demonic power reappears, and the old beasts and young beasts are absorbed first to strengthen their bodies and spirits."
Garen's voice spread in the quiet place. The monsters were stunned at first, and then nodded in agreement.
A one-eyed old wolf limped forward, his voice hoarse and full of vicissitudes: "My king, your action is truly of great benevolence and righteousness.
Over the years, my old bones have been plagued by injuries. Many old beasts like me can only barely fill their stomachs, and their health is getting worse day by day, let alone practicing.
Now that the magic crystal is back, we don't have to worry about our health anymore. We might even be able to live a few more years and contribute to the development of the demon race."
After saying that, it lowered its head slightly and rubbed its front paws with the tip of its nose.
I thought that this life would only be a few decades long, just like that of an ordinary animal.
But he is a demon, with a lifespan of hundreds or thousands of years, and he has become like an ordinary beast.
Sometimes, he would rather be an ordinary beast than have self-awareness and feel resentful.
Next to them, a skinny little fox demon timidly grabbed its mother's tail and muttered softly:
“I want to grow up quickly and become strong so that I can help my mother find food.
Every time I see my mother starving for me, I feel so sad..."
Many of her sisters and brothers died of starvation or were beaten to death by wild beasts.
The little fox demon's mother licked her head gently, her eyes full of love and helplessness.
The female fox was haggard, with dull fur and distinct ribs. She had not eaten a full meal for a long time in order to feed her children.
Lin Molin watched as the injured demons came out one after another, each one thinner than the last, and his heart felt as if it were being hit by a heavy hammer.
As a human cultivator, Su Ze's feelings were even more complicated.
He has always believed that people who are not of the same kind must have different hearts.
But the demons have self-awareness. Apart from their bodies, they are the same as humans in other aspects.
There are also the elderly, the weak, the sick and the disabled, there are also mothers who love their children deeply, and there are also desires and struggles for survival.
As Su Ze watched the heart-wrenching scenes before him, the inherent prejudices in his heart began to melt quietly.
Once upon a time, the demon race and human monks coexisted peacefully and shared resources.
Ever since the fairy world issued a killing order, the demon clan has become a destitute clan that is hunted down by everyone and has to flee everywhere.
What kind of reason is hidden behind this killing order from the fairy world?
Do we have to kill all the demons just because they are not of our kind?
They have never left the demon world and brought disaster to the human world.
They are law-abiding and stay in this small piece of land in the demon world, practicing diligently like human monks, just wanting to achieve immortality as soon as possible.
Seeing Su Ze staring blankly at the skinny youngsters, the old, weak, and sick people sitting under the holy pillar and absorbing demonic energy, Lin Molin raised his lips slightly:
"Look, what this demon race is seeking is just a glimmer of hope for survival. How is it different from us humans?
We cultivate immortality and seek the truth, isn't it to transcend life and death and pursue the supreme path? They do the same."
Humans dominate this world, and it is humans who have the final say on right and wrong.
If it were the ruler of the demon world, then if we put ourselves in his shoes, the ones staying here would not be the demons, but human cultivators.
Su Ze slowly came back to his senses and nodded slightly.
No matter whether it is a demon, a monster or a spirit beast, the gods love them.
But why does the immortal world have to be so clear-cut, dividing all living beings into different levels...
He frowned, looked up at the sky, and remained silent for a long time.
I wonder if his ancestors in the immortal world were also divided into different levels by the immortals...
Su Ze's heart was full of confusion.
The sky of the fairyland, which he once regarded as supreme and representing justice and order, was now shrouded in a layer of haze, appearing strange and chilling.
After arranging all the monsters, Garen stood up and walked to Lin Molin and bowed.
The demons saw that their king treated the human next to him politely, and there was curiosity and inquiry in their eyes, but none of them shouted and killed like the humans did when they saw the demons.
"Little... Mo Lin, it's all thanks to you that the magic crystal was able to return. On behalf of my people, I kowtow to you."
Garen wanted to call him "young master", but all the monsters were there, and now was not the time to reveal the young master's identity, so he quickly stopped talking.
After saying that, he knelt in front of Lin Molin.
Youshe also came over and knelt on the ground.
Their magic crystal is back, and the young master is back too. For the demon clan, this is like a downpour after a long drought, and a ray of hope in a desperate situation.
Youshe's eyes were red, and his voice was choked with sobs: "After you left, the demon race fell into endless suffering.
The Lingyou Demon Crystal has been sealed, and the demonic power is becoming increasingly weak. We have to resist external invasions while struggling for survival resources. How many compatriots have lost their lives..."
Lin Molin gave the two beasts a light hand and said, "Get up, everyone. I'm back, aren't I?"
She turned her head and glanced at the demons around her, her eyes full of compassion.
“Although my memory of the past is a little hazy, now that I have returned to the Fantasy World, I will definitely not let the demon race suffer again.
Get up and follow me to Misty Valley."
The two beasts quickly got up from the ground and followed Lin Molin to the Misty Valley.
Seeing that someone was about to leave, Su Ze quickly followed him: "Wait for me, I'm going too!"
Lin Molin glanced at Su Ze who followed him, without saying anything.
A group of people flew in the sky.
Soon, they arrived at the Misty Valley.
When Su Ze saw the vast peach blossom forest, he was stunned.
This place is actually the ancestral land of the Peach Blossom Fairy Demon!
But, wasn't the Peach Blossom Fairy Demon already extinct? And what was going on in front of him?
Thinking of this, he suddenly turned around and looked at Lin Molin with a shocked face.
Who exactly is this young man?
