Chapter 833 32. Legend of the Holy Beast
The demigods of the wilderness are the extreme manifestation of the life force of Azeroth. The body of each demigod of the wilderness is filled with the essence of life. This kind of extremely rich vitality makes them break away from the original cycle of life and death. It is impossible for a demigod to Those who were killed, even if their bodies were destroyed, their souls could still live in the Emerald Dream as demigod spirits.
And once enough life energy is replenished, the demigod can realize the conversion of spirit and flesh again... From this point of view, the demigod of the wilderness is probably the most BUG life form in Azeroth.
But is becoming a demigod of the wilderness the end of the road?
No!
The existence of Ansu's wife, Yang Yan Raven Rukhma, represents a certain advancement of the demigod of the wilderness, combining the life of one of the six basic forces of the stars with the life that is free from the six basic forces. Mysterious fusion and reshaping of the four elements of the universe will eventually form a more beautiful and powerful creature... a creature above the demigod.
No one knows how Rukhmar, who was born in the world of Draenor, merged himself with the fire element. In fact, Rukhmar himself can't explain it clearly. This sun spirit is more likely to be completed in ignorance. This step is more like a gift given to her by the creator of Draenor... more like the crystallization of some kind of fate.
However, in Azeroth, a mysterious world where more than a dozen demigods have been born, isn't there a demigod who bravely took this step?
The answer is still no!
Of course, there are wilderness demigods in Azeroth that merge with the elements, and there is definitely more than one. The reason why they are unknown is because they have been very low-key hidden behind the curtain of history.
In Pandaria, the continent that was shrouded in mist for ten thousand years by the fusion of the last pandaren emperor Shaohao and the earth, there are such beautiful and noble demigods hidden in the wilderness. The local pandaren respectfully call them "Supreme Gods" , and some monks called it "Holy Beast", and the number reached an astonishing four!
Qinglong, Scarlet Crane, Black Bull, and White Tiger are located in the southeast, northwest, and four corners of the Pandaria Continent. They guard a part of the land in their respective dojos, and use their own existence and strength as the strongest guardians of the Pandaria Continent.
To be precise, the existence mode of these four holy beasts has surpassed other wilderness demigods in the Azeroth world. They have fused themselves with the power of elements, each of which has more powerful power than wilderness demigods, and Most importantly, compared to the immortality of the demigods in the wilderness, these four holy beasts have entered another realm of... immortality just like Rukhmar the Yangyan Raven.
They are, in the truest sense of the word, living creatures that never die.
At this time, in the easternmost land of Pandaria, in the main hall of Qinglong Temple in the Jade Forest where the "capital" of pandaren civilization is located, facing the "invitation" of the great lord Tyrion, the holy beast Qinglong, who has been hiding his own existence, finally For the first time in front of foreigners, he showed his terrifying and noble figure.
"Aw!"
Accompanied by a desolate dragon chant, the sky of the entire Qinglong Temple became cloudy at this moment, the original warm sunlight was hidden under the action of another force, and then light raindrops fell on this place. Amidst the ticking sound on the stone slabs of the ancient temple, the giant sapphire dragon with a body length of nearly 150 meters appeared outside the rear platform of the main hall of Qinglong Temple in a gesture of soaring into the sky.
Her body shape is similar to that of the longest giant snake. Between the flexible bends, the flexibility of this body is fully demonstrated, and this body is covered with sapphire-like scales, and each dragon scale is rippling. Light like water waves. On this long snake-like body, there are four huge claws distributed on both sides of the body, like tiger claws. Water vapor like blue waves lingers on the blades of the claws, and the light reflected by them is enough. Make any reasonable person feel intimidated.
The Qinglong's tail is as fluffy as a burning blue flame, and as beautiful as the tail of a Jinlin fish. Of course, her head is more eye-catching.
Although it is called a dragon, the head of Qinglong is completely different from the dragons of Azeroth's mainstream Guardian Dragon Legion. She is more like a fusion of the characteristics of multiple creatures, with sapphire-colored deer-like horns, Round eyes with white halos, mane like a lion, nostrils like a horse, and dragon whiskers like a fish's whiskers. The mouth is full of sharp teeth. During the breathing, there is a faint thunder.
"Wherever the dragon arrives, clouds and rain follow each other, wind and thunder cover the body, and the stars tremble..."
When the Supreme Celestial God, Qinglong Yulong, rarely manifested its prototype, Lorewalker Zhou Zhuo's eyes widened. In front of the supreme holy beast, Rou Xin, the envoy of the Golden Lotus Sect, also bowed respectfully, and the blood-spitting master Zhu put his palms together and greeted him with a monk's salute.
They have never seen such a huge demigod in the wilderness. Their eyes widened. Children always have an indescribable love for beautiful creatures, especially legendary creatures like Qinglong who seem to have stepped out of a painting. The little Yuna on Tyrion's shoulder pointed at Qinglong, her eyes were full of envy and love, but she couldn't think of how to describe her feeling.
After a few seconds, Yuna grabbed Tyrion's hair like crazy and yelled:
"I want that! Tyrion, I want that! I don't want Arceus! I want that!"
"Don't make trouble!"
The great lord reached out and put the chirping little ghost on the ground. He took a few steps forward, and then looked at one of the four holy beasts in front of him with a scrutinizing gaze, and the latter was also scrutinizing Terry hold head high.
Yulong is not as afraid of Tyrion as other demigods of the wilderness... There is no reason to be afraid, maybe she is not Tyrion's opponent, but the combined power of the four holy beasts is definitely greater than that of the dead man in front of him. God... at worst, he can also knock him back in a battle.
"It's beautiful..."
The great lord uttered a very necromantic, dry sigh, but the appreciation in it was self-evident. Facing his praise, Qinglong Yulong, who was moving a huge body in the air, let out a deep laugh.
Unexpectedly...it turned out to be a gentle female voice, and Yulong in front of her was a powerful female just like Rukhmar.
"Before the fog was opened, my companions and I felt that the world was undergoing great changes, but the fog blocked our perception, and we could only faintly feel that a force representing death was rising from the outside world."
The huge dragon's head was slightly lowered in the sky, Yulong approached Tyrion, and those eyes like copper bells looked at him curiously:
"So, is that you? I thought your form would be colder..."
"Even death will pursue beauty, but if you want to see a gloomy bone standing here and talking to you..."
A cold smile appeared on Tyrion's face:
"Then I can also fulfill your request."
"No, that's fine."
Yulong's body shrunk rapidly in the air. In the rippling halo, a cute pandaren child who was somewhat similar to the little panda Lili appeared in front of Tyrion. That pandaren child Moving her body, she raised her head and blinked at Tyrion:
"Actually, I prefer to appear in this form. It won't scare the other pandaren in Qinglong Temple. They respect me very much, but that kind of respect is a kind of trouble and torture to me... You should know, In fact, at the root of it, I’m just a lucky beast.”
"you!"
And at the moment this pandaren child appeared, little Yuna, who was trying to appease the angry soul deer Arceus, suddenly pointed at her and screamed:
"I know you! You played with me in Podong Village yesterday! I even gave you two pieces of candy! You liar!"
"That's why I put up with your evil idea of trying to cut a slice out of my soul, Yuna, you sweet little fool! Now, let me be quiet..."
Yulong waved his hand indifferently. Amidst the children's screams, blue water mist rose up. In a moment, everyone else in the hall was sent out of the hall, and the huge door was empty. They closed while pushing, leaving space for Yulong and Tyrion who came from afar.
"Forgive me for coming into close contact with your children without being informed, but I must ensure that the first batch of outsiders who come into contact with the pandaren are harmless."
The little panda in the form of Yulong sat comfortably on the chair and explained to Tyrion:
"The sudden opening of the fog barrier surprised everyone. Of course, for us, we knew very well that the seal left by Shaohao would be broken one day, but the pandas under our shelter were somewhat unacceptable. The most Those wise people predicted that the peaceful life that the pandaren have maintained for 10,000 years will be broken..."
Yulong sighed helplessly:
"Ordinary people are afraid of change, this is their nature, and it is a flaw that wisdom cannot cover up. I can only use my method to guide them...For pandaren with pure hearts, outsiders are dangerous..."
Speaking of this, Yulong raised his head, tilted his head, and glanced at Tyrion:
"Especially when there is someone like you standing behind the outsider, we must be more cautious."
"I can understand."
The great lord sat on the chair opposite Yulong. He picked up a cup of tea, took a sip of the tea, looked around, and said to Yulong:
"Let all your brothers come out. You are also demigods with status. It's outrageous to hide your head and show your tail like this! Now that we are all sitting here, we have to talk about some things."
The moment Tyrion's voice fell, three illusory figures of beasts appeared in the open space beside him.
It was the northern white tiger - Xuen, whose whole body was wrapped in white lightning and shone with a cold light of ice and snow.
That is the southern red crane - Chi Jing, surrounded by lotus-shaped flames, like the most elegant crane.
It was the silent and tenacious Western Black Bull Niuzao with four horns and thick fur all over its body.
The consciousness incarnations of the other three holy beasts stood quietly at the same place, and they looked at the strong man who came from afar with different expressions in their eyes. Not only the green dragon here, but the four holy beasts were all alarmed.
Of course, this is expected. The power and existence of Tyrion are a terrible threat to any civilization...
Under the gaze of the four holy beasts, the great lord whispered while drinking the tasteless tea:
"As you can see, I'm just here to help. According to my original plan, my meeting with you may not be until a few months later...at least until my subordinates figure out the secrets hidden under the continent of Pandaria. Those weird things... Shamo, that is a strange existence that has never appeared between me and the ancient gods, and I am also very interested in these things."
"Any life with a normal mind should not be interested in Sha."
The answer to Tyrion's doubts was the white tiger Xuen who squatted in the hall like a big cat. Because of the incarnation of consciousness, the size of these holy beasts became very small, less domineering and dignified, and more Luckily Yuna didn't see it, otherwise Tyrion would be annoyed again recently.
The voice of Xuen, the strongest white tiger among the four holy beasts and even all the demigods of the wilderness, was as cold as the howling of the north wind. It said in a deep voice:
"Sha shrouds the history of Pandaria like the most terrifying shadow. Even Shaohao, the most outstanding emperor of the Pandaren, cannot avoid the influence of Sha on him. Sha seems to be the original sin inherent in Pandaria. To live on a land where you can't be angry, you can't despair, you can't be mad, you can't hate, you can't doubt, you can't be afraid, and finally, you can't be proud..."
"Negative emotions may be just an occasional burst of thought for you outsiders, but on the land of Pandaria, the accumulation of negative emotions will cause disasters that you can't imagine."
Red Crane Chi-Jing took over the white tiger's talk. The most gorgeous and beautiful head, somewhat similar to Rukhma, but more slender, and more "fairy-like", the voice of the southern holy beast was like a Like Zhongzheng and the Lorewalker, it said to the High Lord:
"It took us 10,000 years to cultivate the Pandaren's full spirit and optimistic will to live. Only then can we barely seal the Sha Demon in the darkness. Unfortunately, the arrival of you outsiders has ruined all of this. Your will is full. Cruel and tyrannical, your mentality is full of greed and desire, you are eager to conquer this continent, but unfortunately, this continent will completely bury you..."
The last one to speak was the silent Niuzao. The voice of this black bull was as deep as the earth. It warned in short words:
"You are not welcome in this land... Take your servants and leave, god of death..."
"Is it just that you reject people thousands of miles away?"
The great lord put down the teacup, sat on the chair, straightened his body, crossed his fingers, leaned forward slightly, looked at the four holy beasts in front of him, and said softly:
"But, what if I can completely eliminate Sha Mo?"
"If I'm not mistaken, the Sha Demons who have tortured the Pandaren civilization for 10,000 years are probably the most powerful ancient gods in ancient times. After the seven Y'Shaarji were killed, the reverberations left in this land ,Right?"
"What a coincidence, these ancient gods and I have a little... "holiday", I mean, if I can help you completely get rid of this ten thousand year threat..."
There was a glint of expectation in Tyrion's ice-blue eyes. He looked at the almost perfect shape of the four holy beasts, and asked in a low voice:
"You, the Four Holy Beasts, the Supreme Gods, what are you willing to pay for this?"
