Chapter 2034 Hope and Disappointment
"Because Fellow Daoist Mu Yan is a human monk, I don't have to worry. The inheritance is of no value to human monks!" The elder said in a deep voice, "Wei Tong, apologize to Fellow Daoist Mu Yan!"
"I..." Wei Tong hesitated for a moment, suppressed the anger in his heart, cupped his fists at Ye Tian and said, "I didn't think carefully, I offended the distinguished guest, sorry!"
"It's okay," Ye Tian said with a slight nod.
"Senior Mu Yan, please follow me," Wu Kai made a gesture of invitation.
Ye Tian nodded to everyone in the field, turned around and followed Wu Kai to leave the cave here.
"Brother Wei Tong has been losing battles over the years. Brother Wei Tong is anxious and helpless. Recently, some problems have appeared in his mood. Please don't take it to heart," Wu Kai explained to Ye Tian, still worried about what happened just now.
"It's okay, I understand," Ye Tian said with a smile.
"Actually, the main reason the Great Elder has just mentioned. In addition, there is another reason that the Great Elder did not say, because under the attack of the Silver Ring Demon Bear, our clan may not be able to hold on for too long. Then The tomb of the ancestors will always be obtained by him." Wu Kai sighed and said: "In fact, everyone knows it, but they don't want to mention it, worrying about affecting their minds."
While talking, Wukai had already stopped in front of a narrow valley.
"Master Wukai!" There was a blood-eyed spirit ape handle in front of the valley.
Wu Kai nodded, and led Ye Tian into the valley.
The entrance of this valley is extremely narrow, almost only Zhangxu wide, but after walking more than ten feet inward, it suddenly opened up, expanding to both sides, but the other side of the valley obviously has no way out, after the mountain walls on both sides extend out , completely converging together in the distance ahead, completely sealing off the end.
The entire valley looks like a gourd.
Moreover, on the largest open space in the gourd, surrounded by lush trees, a pool of water with a radius of more than ten feet appeared in front of Ye Tian's eyes.
"A hundred years ago, there was no such pool of water here at all. It used to be the tomb of the ancestors. As a result, I don't know why. On that day, the earth shook suddenly and something happened. The tomb completely sank into the ground and turned into a spring. This pool was formed." Wu Kai explained to Ye Tian.
"There doesn't seem to be anything weird?" Ye Tian said, looking at the rippling pool of water in front of him.
It seems that because there is a spring below, this pool of water is not stagnant water, so it is extremely clear.
But because it is very deep, you can't see the bottom of the pool. In the depths of the pool, there is only a deep blue color.
Wu Kai raised his hand and took out a small knife, and cut a wound on his finger.
A drop of blood was squeezed out, and it fell into the pool with a ticking sound.
Mutation happened.
Just a drop of blood entered the pool, and it looked like a huge switch was turned on, and the whole pool suddenly boiled!
During the boiling process, the originally clear pool water quickly turned bright red, like a pool of blood!
The sound of "Gululu..." continued, and a faint red mist evaporated from the pool water, gathered in the sky above the pool water, and gradually condensed into a figure.
It was a blood-eyed spirit ape in a Taoist robe sitting cross-legged on a futon.
But the difference is that its forehead is not a red mark like the Great Elder, Wu Kai and others, but a red eye. When the line of sight falls on it, no matter how you shift it, it seems to be in harmony with The blood-red eyes met.
"It seems that the demon god formation is about to dissipate..." The blood-eyed ape floated in the air, muttering to himself with blank eyes.
"This day is still here, my descendants," the ancestor of the blood-pupil spirit ape said slowly, looking ahead blankly.
Ye Tian saw that this should be just a short-sighted and sealed image, and there is no other mystery.
On the contrary, the pool water below began to feel a little strange after Wu Kai dripped a drop of blood and turned blood red.
But Ye Tian didn't bother to observe the pool of water at this time, the ancestor of the blood pupil spirit ape continued to speak.
"Actually, I really don't want you guys to see this passage I left behind, because it means that the Great Demon God Formation, the formation I was most proud of, has reached the verge of disappearing."
"And this also shows that none of my descendants can walk on the same path as me."
"It seems... the path I took was wrong after all. A monster is a monster, with a powerful body and longevity, but in terms of cultivation, it is doomed to be far from being able to compare with the powerful human race. They That innate talent really makes me envious."
"Okay, don't talk nonsense, my time is approaching, and I can't hold on for long, so let's make a long story short." While talking, the ancestor of the blood pupil spirit ape couldn't help coughing violently a few times, just passed From this image, one can see the serious feeling of oldness and weakness.
"I once embarked on a path completely different from my own identity, just to prove that monsters can also have the same abilities as humans, so I did not hesitate to leave the group and devote my whole life to it."
"I hope that my descendants can also have such an existence, continue to walk on my path, and carry it forward. If this is the case, it is the most basic thing for the Great Demon God Formation to exist forever."
"However, I also know that monsters are monsters, people are people, and each has its own strengths. My thoughts violate the rules of heaven."
"But I don't want the Great Demon God Formation to disappear completely, and I don't want the road I created to disappear from this world completely like a flash in the pan."
"So I left this image, and also in my tomb, I left all my hard work on the way of formation."
"When the demon god formation is about to disappear, this inheritance will naturally appear. After you obtain it, you will be able to grasp the key to the demon god formation, and have the ability to arrange it and make it last forever."
"I originally hoped that you could master this ability by yourself, but now it seems that it is just a luxury. Since struggling is useless, I have to accept it."
"My descendants, I hope that you and the demon gods will continue to exist forever."
At the end, the ancestor of the blood pupil spirit ape sighed as if resigned to his fate, stared blankly at the front, motionless, as if he had turned into an illusory sculpture.
After a while, its image gradually dissipated, turning into a blood-red mist again, and falling back into the pool.
Ye Tian understood.
The ancestor of the blood-eyed spirit ape hopes that the monster will have the same talent for cultivation as the human race while having a strong body and a long lifespan.
It hopes that the formation it created is just the beginning, and that its descendants can go further and finally complete its vision.
Indeed, even Ye Tian admits that if it can be achieved, the power of the monster clan will be beyond imagination.
But it is a pity that among the blood pupil spirit apes, none of them succeeded.
Not to mention being able to surpass it, there hasn't even been a blood-eyed spirit ape who has approached it for thousands of years.
In fact, the ancestor of the blood pupil spirit ape also knew the difficulty of this matter. After all, it was only a step forward, so before dying, he was worried that no offspring would succeed in the end, and he didn't want to see his hard work disappear completely, so he stayed behind. A way out.
At the very least, it can save the back road it broke through.
This is the purpose of the existence of the Fangtan water in front of us.
At the same time, Ye Tian also understood why the Great Elder was willing to let Ye Tian come in to check.
The greatest value of the inheritance handed down from the ancestors of the blood-pupil spirit ape lies in the powerful formations that monsters can also master and use.
This is an extremely rare existence for monsters, and it can directly add more means and abilities.
But the formation method is what the human race is good at, and it has developed to the peak.
Seeing this large formation of demon gods, at most it felt strange and unexpected, seeing a new existence, but it didn't have a lot of practical value.
"Actually, for tens of thousands of years, many existences of our family have wanted to be like our ancestors and walk on the path they once walked. But none of our talents can match that of our ancestors, and every attempt has failed in the end. "Wu Kai next to him also sighed at this time and said.
"However, since your ancestors left a way to repair and maintain the Demon God Formation, why is the Demon God Formation still getting weaker and weaker? Don't you have the inheritance?" Ye Tian felt something was wrong and asked.
"How could it not be obtained?" Wu Kai said with a wry smile: "This pool of water first appeared a hundred years ago. After we knew that there was a way to repair the Great Formation of the Demon God, we immediately planned to send a few geniuses from the group to enter it. Obtain the inheritance. But the way of the formation is indeed too complicated for us, and a hundred years have passed in a flash, and no one has been able to fully grasp the inheritance."
"It stands to reason that when your ancestors left the inheritance, they should have considered the possibility that the formation would be difficult for you, otherwise it would be meaningless to leave the inheritance." Ye Tian said with a frown.
"We... are too stupid," a look of shame flashed in Wu Kai's dark eyes.
"It shouldn't commit such negligence, is there another reason?" Ye Tian continued to ask.
"Indeed," Wu Kai said, "This is about the Yinhuan Demon Bear Clan."
"The territories of our two races are adjacent to each other. Although there have been frequent small frictions for thousands of years, they are considered to be in peace."
"After all, there are no major conflicts or entanglements of interest between the two parties, but after the inheritance of our ancestors appeared, it will be different."
"After discovering that there was an inheritance, we began to select a group of people from the ethnic group to accept the inheritance."
"This group of people is divided into two parts, one part is the most powerful, the Great Elder, Wei Tong, and I were all among them, and the other part is those who are talented enough."
"Wei Tong has a younger brother named Wei Lun, whose strength is roughly equivalent to that of a human monk in the middle stage of returning to the void."
"Wellen didn't have the qualifications to accept the inheritance, but the others gave up temporarily after losing their qualifications, but Weta was unwilling."
"It first hoped that Wei Tong would teach it in private. Although Wei Tong has many shortcomings, such as short-tempered, aggressive and fierce, but his advantages are quite obvious, that is, he can't rub the sand in his eyes. It thinks that Wei Lun's move is naked. For breaking the rules of the ethnic group, he angrily reprimanded him."
"Vaylon is completely different from his elder brother. He is more silent and low-key. Perhaps it is also because of the great pressure brought by his elder brother's dazzling aura that he is a little unscrupulous. He even chose to sneak in secretly and enter the tomb without authorization to obtain the inheritance."
"This inheritance is the most important thing for the ethnic group today, and it is self-evident how much it is valued. With Waylon's little means, it was easily discovered."
"This made Wei Tong, who valued his self-esteem and honor extremely, furious, and it severely injured Waylon."
"So Wei Lun was also completely angry, coupled with the grudge against Wei Tong in his heart, he left the clan and went to the Silver Ring Demon Bear Clan."
"The Yinhuan Demon Bear was immediately moved by the powerful formation that can be mastered by monsters. In fact, no monster can resist the temptation of this ability. Under the leadership of Wei Lun, they began to attack us."
"In this way, this battle that lasted for a hundred years finally started."
"Wei Tong is very guilty. In a battle decades ago, he killed Wei Lun with his own hands, but this can only reduce the guilt in his heart, because it can't stop the greed of the Silver Ring Demon Bear, and it can't stop it. The fight continues."
"Wei Tong always believed that it was his negligence that caused the disaster for our blood-eyed ape family." Wu Kai said with a sigh.
"No wonder it reacted like that when it asked me to come here just now," Ye Tian nodded and said.
"Yes," Wu Kai said, "In short, the Silver Bear Demon Ape is for the inheritance of the ancestors."
"As for us, we have already disappointed our ancestors once. This inheritance and the demon god formation are the last things our ancestors left us. We are not willing to give up, even if we pay all the price."
"Actually, we have already transferred some young blood-eyed apes to continue the bloodline. Every remaining existence has long been prepared to live and die with the ancestors and the demon god formation."
"Under the pressure of the Yinhuan Demon Ape's attack, your process of mastering the inheritance of your ancestors has been constantly being delayed," Ye Tian said.
"Yes, we don't want to mention this matter. The inheritance of our ancestors should be a matter of course. No matter what the situation is, it is not the reason for this matter." Wu Kai gritted his teeth and said.
At this time, Ye Tian saw that the color of the pool of water in front of him gradually changed from bright red back to its original shape, turning into a pool of clear water.
Ye Tian had a good understanding of the cause and effect of what happened in the blood-pupil spirit ape clan, so he returned under the leadership of Wu Kai.
Next, Ye Tian and Xia Xuan stayed in the territory of the blood pupil spirit ape clan.
In the battle with the Silver Ring Demon Ape, they are now at an absolute disadvantage, and can only passively wait for the Silver Ring Demon Ape to take the initiative to attack.
So Ye Tian was at leisure for the time being.
For this powerful helper who suddenly appeared, the blood pupil spirit ape clan gave the highest courtesy.
Wu Kai still needs to defend the border of the territory all the time, so the Great Elder came to personally receive Ye Tian.
At night, in the core cave of the blood pupil spirit ape clan.
Ye Tian and the Great Elder sat opposite each other, while Xia Xuan silently adjusted her breath and practiced.
"I'm injured now, and the Silver Ring Demon Ape will definitely not let go of this opportunity. They will definitely take the initiative to attack in the past few days, and they will definitely do their best. It is very likely that this will be the last battle." The elder said slowly. Said slowly, the long white eyebrows hanging on both sides trembled slightly as it spoke.
The cultivation base of the Great Elder is at the peak of asking, and it should have been for a very long time.
Although the lifespan of monsters is far longer than that of humans, in Ye Tian's view, if the Great Elder can't break through to the level equivalent to the true immortal level of a human monk before his lifespan is exhausted, his demise may be caused by two or three years. A thing of a hundred years.
It was so old that it was dry and thin, and it was almost the same as Ye Tian.
Although the blood-pupil spirit ape is not known for its size, under normal circumstances, the average blood-pupil spirit ape is at least one foot tall.
If it is in the process of fighting, it can easily exceed ten feet.
From this, it can be seen that this Great Elder is indeed too old.
"Maybe there will be a turning point," Ye Tian said, sensing the grief and loneliness in the Great Elder's words.
He knew that these blood-eyed spirit apes did not believe that he could defeat the silver-ringed demon ape who had reached the level of a true fairy, but Ye Tian didn't intend to make excuses, and he would naturally know when the battle came.
"If it will, it will be fine." The elder only felt that Ye Tian was comforting himself, and he didn't want to waste time on this matter, so he changed the subject and said, "After the battle starts, if the situation is not good , Fellow Daoist Mu Yan left in time."
"We probably won't be able to lead you to find Master Gu Long personally, but I can tell you what I know in advance, how to find the Gu Long Mountain Range." The Great Elder looked at Ye Tian and said.
Although Ye Tian has confidence in defeating the Yinhuan Demon Bear, he is not blindly confident.
After all, he had never fought against it before, and he even knew very little about the silver-ringed demon bear.
It is true that there will be some unexpected situations that cannot be guaranteed. If the time comes and he is really unable to fight, Ye Tian will naturally choose to leave in time. He promised to help the blood-pupil spirit apes, but he did not promise to die for them.
If such a situation does arise at that time, this information will indeed be useful.
So Ye Tian didn't refuse.
...
The Great Elder spoke in great detail. In addition to looking for some specific information about the Gulong Mountain Range, he also basically explained for Ye Tian the mountains in the core area of the Hundred Thousand Mountains and the big monster races.
The whole night passed like this.
Soon, it was bright outside.
"Basically, that's all I know. I hope Fellow Daoist Mu Yan will be lucky then," said the Great Elder.
"I also wish you good luck," Ye Tian smiled, and bowed to the Great Elder with his fists cupped.
The Great Elder hastily returned a salute.
At this moment, a blood-eyed spirit ape quickly flew over from a distance, and crawled to the entrance of the cave.
It uttered several syllables with unknown meanings, and Ye Tian could clearly hear the strong fear and panic mixed in it.
Looking at the Great Elder again, there was also a gloomy look in its old and cloudy eyes.
"Yes, the Silver Ring Demon Bear is here," the Great Elder noticed Ye Tian's gaze and said in a gloomy tone.
Hearing this, Ye Tian immediately took Xia Xuan, flew out of the cave with the Great Elder, and came to the high sky.
Looking into the distance, I saw that in the northern sky, there were several powerful auras soaring into the sky, and they were quickly approaching here.
Those are seven or eight bear monsters whose strength is above Wendao.
Most of them are about a hundred feet in size, and their bodies are pitch black. Their faces look like skeletons, without flesh and fur. The faint red light in their eye sockets is burning like two flames. There are purple hairs on their heads. Pointed horns, there are two pairs of four in total.
These silver-ringed demon bears start to have flesh and black fur from the back of the ears and the same thick neck as the head.
And at the junction of the neck and chest, there is a silver ring, which looks very conspicuous on the black fur.
As for the silver-ringed demon bear at the front, the circular pattern on its body is golden.
The golden light is shining, and one can feel the powerful coercion emanating from it from a long distance away.
"That one is the strongest of the current Silver Ring Demon Bear Clan. Its name is Gula, and in the meaning of the human race, it is the Demon King." The Great Elder introduced.
"Actually, before, like me, its strength was at the peak level of your human monks, but before that, it had awakened the blood of its ancestor, the Golden Ring Demon Bear, and its strength had greatly increased. It was already equivalent to the true level of a human monk. Immortal."
"I believe that fellow Taoist Mu Yan is more aware of the awareness of Wendao Peak and the real immortal than I am. In the last battle, I was defeated by him and was seriously injured. I almost couldn't come back," the Great Elder said with a sigh: "This is God's death for my blood-eyed ape family."
Indeed, there are currently seven or eight members of the blood-pupil spirit ape family who are at the asking level. Even if the elder's injuries suddenly recover completely, and all of them add up, they will not be the opponent of the golden ring demon bear Gula alone.
Not to mention that besides Gula, the Yinhuan Demon Bear Clan also has a number of monsters with the same strength as the blood pupil spirit ape.
And at this time, next to these leading silver ring demon bears with asking strength, there are still many silver ring demon bears whose strength is at the level of returning to the void, transforming gods, etc., flying together mightily.
Below them, there are still a large number of weaker silver ring demon bears, also approaching the territory of the blood pupil spirit ape.
Compared with the menacing Yinhuan Demon Bear, although the Blood-pupil Spirit Ape does not seem to have a disadvantage in terms of numbers, it is far behind in terms of momentum.
It seems that the battle has not yet started, but the winner has already been decided.
