Chapter 1499 Deceiving the Master and Exterminating the Ancestor, the End of the Demon King
The Flood Demon King has made up his mind, even if he is risking the world's catastrophe, he must seize this one-ten-thousandth chance to fight for a possibility of survival for himself. So he almost made up his mind, and even sold out the ancient big monster that was related to the fundamental interests of the monster clan.
And his condition really hit Tianting's weakness. Yang Jian, who was approaching with majestic coercion, couldn't help but slow down.
The heavenly court's preference for the ancient great demon is obviously higher than that of a mere demon king. Even if Zhou Yi, the newly enthroned emperor of heaven, doesn't know the pass, a god like Yang Jian who has personally participated in the Conferred God War will know what to choose at this time.
So immediately, he turned his divine power into substance, and ruthlessly oppressed the Flood Demon King. After revealing his original form in coercion—that hideous black dragon with scales and armor, he also asked the Flood Demon King sternly.
"Tell me everything you know. If everything is true, I can ask the Emperor of Heaven to give you a lenient punishment!"
"I said, I said, I said it all!"
Although what he got was not the answer from the Emperor of Heaven, but with Yang Jian's guarantee, it was enough for the Jiao Demon King. After all, Yang Jian's character is strong enough, compared with these monsters, he can be regarded as a model that once a word is said, it is hard to follow. It was not easy for him to believe other people's nonsense, but it was not difficult for him to trust Yang Jian. So at the moment, he hurriedly begged for mercy like this. Facing his changes, those demon kings who had already begun to change their expressions immediately became agitated.
The behavior of the Flood Demon King is absolutely unacceptable to them. This is not only because of the identity of the ancestors of the ancient monsters, the behavior of the Jiao Demon King looks as rebellious as deceiving the master and destroying the ancestors, which is unacceptable. More importantly, it is because the ancient monster is related to the fate and future of the monster clan.
The Yaozu is a race that is difficult to innovate. Unlike the human race, the enlightenment of the human race allows them to cultivate their offspring through enlightenment, and if they encounter someone who is astonishingly talented, just like Lao Tzu, it might not be impossible for them to be better than blue and become better than blue. The existence of the sages is even more outstanding.
But Yaozu is not. The cultivation process of the Yaozu is not so much cultivation as it is a process of atavism brought about by this external force. The ancient great demon created this kind of training method suitable for the monster race based on himself. In fact, he solidified his own template into the blood of the monster race, allowing them to follow their natural instincts to change to their own appearance.
Is the ancient monster strong? Very strong! As the first group of monster clans to achieve immortality between heaven and earth, their strength is definitely not inferior to those ancient fierce gods. But that's all. Even ancient beasts like Sifang Shenjun need to rely on priesthood to strengthen their strength, even so, they still have to be subservient to some people.
From here, we can see what level the so-called ancient monster is at.
It is difficult for them to compete with powerful gods, let alone those monsters who follow their templates and evolve continuously but can only reach the same level as them in the end.
This is the cause of the demon clan's downfall. It is also the most fatal weakness of the huge monster clan. For thousands of years, it is not that there are no monsters who want to change this situation, and want to find a way out for the monster race. However, in the face of harsh facts, all their efforts are in vain.
It is true that the monsters who have become spirits can practice those skills that belong to the human race. It's like monkeys can learn the tricks of Yuantong, revealing secrets and truths, somersaulting clouds and seventy-two transformations. As long as someone is willing to accept them, they can naturally practice like humans.
However, this is only a special case after all, and it is impossible to apply to all monster races. Let's not talk about whether the human race and the heavenly court will spread some cultivation methods to all the monster races. Even if they acquiesced, or the Yaozu did this without knowing it, the final result could not reach the level that some people expected.
In the final analysis, this is still related to the spiritual wisdom of the Yaozu. The monster clan, even if it has become a spirit monster, a monster clan with supernatural powers will not have a high level of intelligence. If this is the fox clan, rat clan and other monster clans that are known for their cunning, it is okay to say that they can more or less reach the standard level of the human race. And if you want to be like those small races with natural brains, such as aquariums, Zergs, etc., I am afraid that they have practiced for a hundred years, and they are only at the level of ordinary three-year-old children.
Whether one can know characters is a problem, not to mention understanding those obscure and extremely mysterious cultivation methods.
This is true even for monsters who have become spirits and practiced, so don't expect those ordinary monsters. Ordinary monster races are not much different from ordinary beasts. In addition to instinctively swallowing the essence of the sun and the moon, they can't even speak clearly. Under such circumstances, it is simply unrealistic for you to expect the cultivation method of this human race to change their foundation.
To put it bluntly, even if it is a waste of energy that is thousands of times that of ordinary people, it will completely waste the life energy that is not much. None of them may be able to obtain one-thousandth of the cultivation income of ordinary human races. It's not to say that there are no outstanding people, far surpassing their peers, but such people have always been a minority among the minority, and they are completely useless in terms of the overall situation of the Yaozu, and they are of no great use.
The problem of innate spiritual intelligence restricted the development of the Yaozu, making the method of the ancient great demon the only feasible method suitable for the Yaozu. And it is precisely because of this that the ancient big monster is very precious to the monster clan.
Because the vast majority of Yaozu can only rely on this method to practice, so it will be more difficult for them to move forward. The human race can rely on talent to surpass the sages, while the demon race can only rely on their own luck to reach the level of the ancient great demon. This is difficult. Anyone who has studied biology knows how accidental the return of creatures to their ancestors is. Even if the monster race has researched countless methods for thousands of years, there is only one who can really achieve this step.
For thousands of years, only one bull demon king has achieved this step, and almost all other monsters are inferior by such a step. As for the Bull Demon King, before he could increase his power, he was completely eradicated by the monkey and a group of gods.
It is impossible for the Heavenly Court to allow the existence of monsters like the great ancient monsters. Because every time there is one more such existence, the power of the monster clan will grow stronger. As old opponents for thousands of years, they know very well that the most solid pillars of the monster clan are those monsters with the direct bloodline of the ancient big monsters. Ordinary monsters have to work hard for thousands of years to fight against ordinary immortals, but the direct descendants of these ancient monsters are born with such abilities. You can tell at a glance how big the gap is.
Back then, the twelve heavenly demons intimidated the human race, almost driving the human race to an end. The heavenly court never dared to forget this bloody lesson. It took so much effort and sacrificed so many immortals to kill the ancient twelve heavenly demons. They don't want to jump out of anything again to prop up the banner of the Yaozu again.
The death of the Bull Demon King is inevitable, and even the worthless Jade Emperor couldn't be lucky enough to leave him with a glimmer of hope. And even a newborn sky monster is like this, let alone those old ancient monsters?
From the perspective of Heavenly Court, this is almost a must-kill problem. But for the Yaozu, this is a major event related to the survival of the race. From the fact that the death of the Bull Demon King almost wiped out the power of the monster clan in the Xiniu Hezhou in the heavenly realm, and it is difficult to achieve success, we know the importance of an ancient big monster to the monster clan.
Since the conferment of the gods, the monster clan whose strength has been reduced by seven or eight due to the loss of the twelve heavenly monsters can no longer afford more such losses. If these ancient great monsters were to die, I am afraid that after thousands of years, the monster clan would no longer have any savings, and it would be difficult to compete with the heavens.
This point, as long as a monster with a little foresight can see it. It is precisely because of this that these demon kings reacted to the Flood Demon King at this time.
That is to say, Yang Jian's divine power is firmly controlling these crazy monsters, otherwise, countless monsters will rush up, swallowing up the Jiao Demon King with a mouthful of blood and flesh.
The Flood Demon King had foreseen this kind of thing. He knew very well that once he did this, it would be absolutely impossible for the Yaozu to accommodate him. It is not an exaggeration to say that he has cut himself off from the Yaozu. But if he was asked to choose again, he probably would still choose this way.
Can survive, who would want to die. Even at such a heavy price to keep himself alive, in his opinion, it was worth it. Because only if you are alive, you are qualified to consider whether it is worthwhile or not. And if he died, and died under the punishment of heaven without any value, that would be the biggest loss.
Besides, it was just a Kunpeng. Although he is of great significance to the Yaozu, he is definitely not an indispensable role. As long as he survived, he would be able to replace him sooner or later. And once he has achieved the cultivation base of the sky demon like the Bull Demon King. So what is lost today, are you afraid that you will not be able to make up for it in the future?
I thought of ten thousand reasons for myself and found countless excuses. The Flood Demon King finally strengthened his determination, and loudly revealed the secret. In the face of his frankness, Yang Jian was also unequivocal, and directly turned his head and clasped his fists at Zhou Yi to report.
"Your Majesty, if what this monster said is true, I am willing to intercede for him and spare his life! Please forgive me, Your Majesty!"
"Spare his life? It's not impossible." Yang Jian even opened his mouth, and Zhou Yi, who regarded him as his confidant and favorite general, naturally couldn't refute his face. But he still reminded. "It's just Yang Qing, have you ever thought about how to prevent the incipient progress and eliminate the possibility of him doing evil in the future?"
"Return to Your Majesty, I have an idea." Stretching out his hand, under the influence of powerful divine power, the body of the Flood Demon King was forcibly compressed and kept shrinking, until finally he could only look like a small snake with the width of a finger. And conveniently put it on his wrist, Yang Jian has already bowed his hands. "My minister still lacks a mount. I think this monster is just right. With the minister watching over him, it is impossible for him to do evil in the future."
"Okay, as you say!"
Completely disregarding the objection of Jiao Demon King, the two monarchs and ministers have already finalized its fate. And such an ending is not what the Flood Demon King wants. It's just that under the power, it's useless.
