Chapter 1338 Stone Womb
"It's not always that big."
Zhou Shu said in a calm voice, "According to the records in the classics, the demon monkey is about the same size as an ordinary cultivator, but it is really unreasonable to move around with such a big golden pillar. Obviously, this golden pillar is very unusual. It It should be able to change size freely like a magic weapon."
Qingque blinked, and seemed to realize something, "You mean, it's getting smaller?"
"If it's not like this, what else can it be?"
Zhou Shu smiled unconsciously, "Could it be that the ghostly golden pillar really disappeared right in front of you and me? Impossible, it must still be here."
"Is it……"
Qingque nodded suspiciously, and looked around.
The cave was not small, but it was small compared to the consciousness of the two of them. In just a dozen or so breaths, Qing Que came back with something.
"Could it be... this is it?"
Looking at the thing in her hand, she gasped, unable to believe it.
It was an inch-long needle, as light as nothing, and it was impossible to connect it with the ghostly golden pillar thousands of feet high.
Looking at the needle and the round stone in his hand, Zhou Shu's mind was shocked, and many of his past thoughts seemed to be confirmed instantly.
The legend of the previous life has some real traces in this mysterious world.
He looked at it for a while, nodded and said, "Look carefully, the lines on the needle are the same as those on the Nether Gold Pillar, but they have been shrunk many times, making it look more pleasing to the eye...it must be it."
"It's the same, but..."
Qingque still shook her head, unable to believe it, "It's shrunk by millions of times, such a big change, even the magic weapon of heaven in the world of cultivating immortals may not be able to do it, it has never been heard that the demons are good at refining weapons , can the magic tools they make do this?"
Zhou Shu nodded slightly, "Of course ordinary magic weapons can't, but the magic monkey's can, because it is not a magic weapon at all, and the magic monkey is not a demon race."
Qingque frowned and said, "Isn't the demon monkey a demon? It doesn't look like a demon, but it must be. It's just more stupid and fierce."
"no the same."
Zhou Shu said calmly, "The demon monkey is not a real demon, he just strayed into the realm of the demons."
"By mistake?" Qing Que slightly raised her head, more confused, "What's going on?"
Zhou Shu thought for a while, and said slowly, "It is said that the demon monkey was originally a stone embryo from thousands of worlds away. For some unknown reason, it finally landed on the realm of the demon clan. Demonic energy, after tens of thousands of years, the stone womb cracked and gave birth to a stone monkey. The stone monkey has infinite power, no father, no mother, and lawlessness. It has the characteristics of the demon race, but it also has its own characteristics. It does not regard itself as a demon race , killing the demons in the same way, so in the world of the demons, it is regarded as a demon by the demons..."
"Is it like this?"
Qing Que supported his yi, feeling a little stunned when he heard it, "Which classic is this from, I don't think I've read it."
Zhou Shu smiled slightly, "I don't remember either."
"Oh," Qingque nodded slightly, as if thinking about something, suddenly raised her head, her eyes full of doubts, "ah, according to what you said, if the stone fetus fell on the world of cultivating immortals, wouldn't the demon monkey be a spirit?" Monkey?"
Zhou Shu looked at the ball in his hand and said slowly, "I'm not completely sure, but it looks like this."
Qing Que followed his gaze and froze for a moment, "Zhou Shu, aren't you saying that the magic monkey is in this stone ball and has turned into a spirit monkey?"
"Where else can it be?"
Zhou Shu said lightly, "Take a closer look."
As he spoke, he held the stone ball in front of Qingque.
Hearing that the demon monkey was inside, Qing Que was startled and almost wanted to run away, but after thinking about it, she calmed down and carefully let go of her spiritual sense to probe into the stone ball.
Somewhat unexpectedly, the stone ball looks gray and ordinary, but it actually extends in all directions, no different from the best spiritual material. It didn't take much effort for her consciousness to penetrate through it.
After just one glance, she froze.
In the center of the stone ball, a very small stone monkey curled up into a ball, sleeping very soundly. It is no more than the size of a fist, and its whole body is smooth, with a soft luster, like a newborn baby, with a harmless appearance to humans and animals.
She looked at Zhou Shu, and asked in surprise, "This little monkey is the magic monkey that turned Aolai Kingdom upside down?"
Zhou Shu nodded, and said calmly, "Who else could it be? There are other monkeys, but that's even more unlikely."
"But, it doesn't have any magic energy at all."
Qing Que took another look, shook his head and said, "Not only does it have no magic energy, but its whole body is full of spiritual energy and original energy. I dare to believe that it is a ninth-level spiritual creature, but the devil monkey, how could it be?"
Zhou Shu said in a soothing voice, "As I said before, it does not belong to the demon clan itself, but a stone fetus outside the sky, which can absorb the essence of all walks of life by itself. If it is in the land of the demon clan, it will absorb the devil's energy and get the demon realm." The origin gave birth to the magic crystal and turned into a magic monkey. In the Xuanhuang world, it not only lost the magic crystal, but also suffered day and night in the eighth-level spirit vein. The magic energy in the body was completely eliminated by the spirit vein, and it would recover to At the beginning of the stone embryo state, and then began to absorb spiritual energy, it will break out of the shell at a certain level, but it has not reached that stage yet.”
"So, it really is something beyond thousands of worlds, and it will change shape with the world?"
Qingque's expression was slightly condensed, but she believed it a little bit, and she couldn't believe it. She sighed softly, "Is there really such a strange thing? It's too unbelievable."
The stone fetus outside the realm, no matter which world it is in, will automatically absorb the origin and essence of that world, and use it to strengthen itself until it takes shape. If it falls into the demon world, it will become a demon monkey, and if it falls into the world of cultivating immortals, it will become a spirit monkey. Such a wonderful thing, she really He has never heard of it, but Zhou Shu is not. He has heard of similar legends a long time ago, but not in this life.
He didn't expect that the legend would appear in front of him in such a way.
Qing Que looked at Zhou Shu and said slowly, "Then what should we do with it? It used to be a demon monkey and did a lot of evil. Otherwise, it should be absorbed as a ninth-level spiritual thing? It should be of great importance to you. With the help of this spirit, if it is really a ninth-level spiritual thing, one plant can raise almost a small realm."
"I actually really want to."
Zhou Shu stared at the stone ball and shook his head slightly, "But I can't absorb it. Its level is too high, and it has already exceeded the scope of the Xuanhuang world. It is more than nine levels. It is impossible for you and me to completely absorb it. If we really do that , the harm far outweighs the benefits, and the essence is even sucked away by it... The most we can absorb the original qi of the world and the vitality it inhales, but that is of no significance to us."
"Ah, that's true."
Qingque thought for a while, then nodded helplessly, "Then what should we do, we can't keep it here and continue to absorb the spirit veins, right? I don't want to do that, it's too cheap, no matter what It is said that it is the enemy of our immortal cultivators, it was in the past, and maybe it will be in the future."
