Chapter 559: Nine Heavens Spirit Official Divine Demon Clan
Not far ahead, known as the Remnant Tribe.
In ancient legends, this place was originally a world of mortals, where weapons were forged.
But worldly Divine Weapons are merely refined steel.
The weapons here, over time, decayed and broke.
But gradually, an Evil emerged.
Descendants of Gods and Demons once suspected this Evil was transformed from Old God's Magical Objects, intending to seize it as it bore the nature of Immortal God's weapons.
Later it was discovered, after the arrival of Deceit Night, that countless broken weapons here merged with strange Qi Mechanism.
In a distant era, mortals forged weapons, pouring their blood, sweat, and intentions in, forming traces akin to incense.
After Deceit Night arrived, these traces akin to incense formed a powerful Evil Spirit.
However, the descendant of Gods and Demons was merely of a lower bloodline and was not a match for this Evil Spirit. In desperate acquiescence, they offered the Human Clan as a tribute.
Thus, the Evil Spirit began to nurture the Human Clan.
But Its intelligence was not very high, not understanding governance.
So the Humans living here were not nurtured as blood food livestock, but rather existed like a wild Human Clan tribe.
However, this tribe had to worship daily, with small ceremonies every three days and large ceremonies every five days.
Every month they must sacrifice their kin to nourish the broken weapons on this land with flesh and blood.
Until six hundred years ago, the tribe's Humans received teachings from external Humans and began trying to cultivate.
Two hundred years ago, the first person in Qi Refining Realm appeared.
With those in Qi Refining Realm offering incense and continuously worshipping.
Causing the Evil Spirit among the weapons to feel satisfied, and the demand for blood food weakened.
Now, Humans in this land can naturally die of old age.
After becoming old, their bodies are buried under broken weapons, with flesh and blood dissolving, taken by the Evil Spirit.
"Using the bodies, is this worthy of death?" Niu Yan whispered.
"In this world, Gods, Demons, and Evil beings have already started demanding freshness, youthfulness, birth dates, physical quality, cooking methods for consuming Humans..."
Lin Yan calmly said, "In the Red Nether Era, to manage only consuming bodies while protecting one Human faction, It is already considered rare kindness."
After a pause, Lin Yan said, "However, this Evil Spirit itself has low intelligence and is easily influenced."
"In the Young Venerable Feng Ling's account, a hundred years ago, the upper levels of this tribe struggled for power."
"One person advocated reinstating sacrifices, resuming ancestral practices to show sincerity."
"One person considered their kin, still maintaining the burial sacrifice after death."
"The former slaughtered kin and advanced sacrifices to gain the Evil Spirit's approval, killed the latter."
"However, after ascent, this person restrained somewhat, and after their death, the current Great Venerate of the Remnant Tribe stopped live sacrifices."
"In other words, the essence of this Evil Spirit still craved more blood food."
"In the future, if the tribe's people resemble Gods and Demons, ignore their kin, or consider themselves superior, then... live sacrifices will still resume."
"A knock is still necessary!"
As the voice fell, Lin Yan's Heavenly Eye opened on his forehead, but his face suddenly turned somber.
The Remnant Tribe was massacred!
The land here is filled with post-consumed scenes of horror!
There are traces of Evil, some hair and scale armor.
There are many broken clothing of Humans, shattered weapons.
And where there should be over twenty thousand Humans, not even bones were left, all completely devoured.
Only some bloodstains remained on the ground, proving a fierce battle happened here not long ago.
Clan massacre!
The Evil Spirit worshipped by this piece of land clearly participated in the battle.
But the countless broken weapons have already lost their charm, thoroughly corroded.
The Evil Spirit that emerged from the broken weapons has already turned to dust.
"Last night's event..."
Lin Yan glanced around expressionlessly.
Last night he killed Kang Jinlong's clan.
But now it seems, wanting to plunder large numbers of boys and girls to ally with Jiujiang Dragon God, not just Kang Jinlong's clan.
Boom!
At this moment, a ray of light appeared beneath the earth.
Only to see a figure holding a long spear, breaking through the ground, aiming directly at Lin Yan's face.
"Weapon!"
Lin Yan's tone was as usual.
Swoosh!
The long spear froze!
The opposing person revealed a look of horror.
"..."
Lin Yan quietly looked at him, without speaking.
This person has the cultivation of the Peak of Refining God Realm, appearing to be about thirty-seven or thirty-eight years old.
His complexion changed unpredictably, his mind saying, "I'm doomed, this is at least a royal clan..."
"You are not from the Remnant Tribe."
Lin Yan withdrew his gaze, saying, "From the intelligence I know, the strongest Great Venerate of the Remnant Tribe is only at the Peak of Qi Refining Realm... But you are at the Peak of Refining God Realm!"
Regarding this person's concealment underground, Lin Yan had long been aware.
Finding him purely Human, he didn't strike directly but explored some remaining traces.
Unexpectedly, this person is so brave, actually daring to stealthily assassinate!
"Did you see my three eyes, so you want to assassinate this descendant of Gods and Demons?"
"If you want to eat, just eat, why so much nonsense?"
This Martial Artist of the Refining God Realm abandoned the spear and closed his eyes waiting for death.
"If you kneel and beg for mercy, follow me from now, drink my Holy Water, it's not impossible for me to take you in, manage the Human Clan tribes under me."
Lin Yan calmly said.
"..."
This person hesitated slightly, vaguely hesitant, but in the next moment, sneered and said, "Old man governs Humans for you, then sacrifices my kin, when I'm old, I'm eaten by you again? I've seen many Gods and Demons like you, if you want to eat, just eat..."
"Nowadays, there's still people like you in the world?"
