Legion!They knew very well that if they dared to disobey the order, they would be killed on the spot!In the study, upon hearing Nanyang's voice, Fang Yu stopped in his tracks and frowned."South, South...Primordial Annihilation Magic Scripture!
Upon hearing the name of this immortal technique, all five Heavenly Clan cultivators except for the old man had expressions of shock on their faces.
This is a fairy technique specifically for demon races!
Just the name itself is arrogant enough!
Even today, the Demon Race remains at the top of the food chain in the entire Yunyu Continent. They are considered to be among the most powerful beings on the land.
Except for the Divine Clan, all other clans fear cultivators or beings of the Demon Race.
Because the Demon race is completely unreasonable, they are brutal and bloodthirsty, attacking and killing anyone without provocation or reason.
To be honest, if the Demon race were to disappear from the Yunyun Continent, all other races would surely cheer and conflicts between them would decrease significantly.
It's a pity that such an idea can only exist in dreams.
Therefore, when they heard the name "Yuan Shi Mie Mo Jue" (Primordial Annihilation Demon Sutra), a glimmer of excitement appeared in the eyes of the five Celestial Clan cultivators.
However, this Xianfa, which targets demonic races, actually originated from a human expert... The current tenth-ranked race!
The contrast was quite stark, leaving them incredulous.
"Grandfather, since the Yuanshi Annihilating Demon Art is so powerful, why hasn't the demon race suffered heavy losses They are still so strong today. On the contrary, the human race is getting weaker and weaker, to the point where they are not even as good as beasts, becoming the tenth-ranked race." The female cultivator was full of confusion and asked again.
The other four cultivators also stared at the old man, apparently having the same question.
The old man's white eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he shook his head gently, replying: "After the emergence of the Primordial Supreme Being, humanity has had a clear advantage over the Demon Clan. In that period of history, the most bloody and brutal battle on Wu Kun Mountain, the Primordial Supreme Being single-handedly killed five Great Demon Kings of the Demon Clan."
After that battle, the demon clan was severely weakened and showed signs of defeat.
As for the human race, their momentum is growing increasingly strong, shifting from defense to offense.
"Then that makes it even stranger, doesn't it How come the situation is completely reversed today" The female monk blinked and continued to ask.
"Little Yuan, after Master Tai finishes speaking, don't keep interrupting." A stern middle-aged cultivator beside him frowned.
The female monk pursed her lips and fell silent.
"Why has the situation turned around like this… I can't answer, that is a mystery for all ages." The old man took a deep breath and shook his head again, replying, "At that time, the human race was indeed showing signs of crushing the demon race."
But just at that moment, the divine race, who had always been at odds with the demon race and disdainful of participating in the war between humans and demons, suddenly made a move.
They chose not to help humanity eradicate the demon race completely, but instead aided the demons...in their counterattack against humanity.
"Huh! How is this possible Aren't the Divine Race and the Demon Race sworn enemies…" The female cultivator asked, a little dumbfounded.
"That's true. Throughout the history of the Cloudfall Continent, the hatred between the gods and demons stems from their bloodlines. But back then... when the demon clan was most dangerous, the gods did indeed help them." The elder replied, "As for why the gods made such a choice, it remains unknown."
"That's why this period of history is called an eternal mystery. No one knows why the Divine Race, who had always been at odds with the Demon Race, would choose to help the Demon Race at that moment and turn against the Human Race..."
"What happened next With the gods and demons teaming up, surely the human race couldn't withstand it, right" The female cultivator was completely engrossed, asking in a daze.
The elder nodded and replied, "Yes, once the gods intervened, the entire balance was disrupted. Although the human race was strong at the time, their war against the demons was incredibly draining, especially Yuan Shi Supreme... He was the only supreme being of the human race then, the very heart and soul of the entire human race."
However, in the Battle of Wuqunshan, he fought five foes single-handedly and slaughtered five Demon Lords, all of whom were at the same level as him... After that, he was heavily injured and no longer possessed his peak prowess.
Therefore, after the intervention of the Gods, the Human race suffered a series of defeats. All previous victories were reversed and taken by the Gods. When the Human race was almost at its limit... The Primordial Supreme, with his severely wounded body, once again forcefully intervened. And so... there was the ultimate battle on Mount Heavenly Dao.
At this point, the old man paused, his eyes flickering strangely, his voice turning incredibly grave.
That battle was extremely tragic. The Primordial Supreme Being, along with his three hundred most trusted disciples, fought to the death against the strongest beings of the Demon and Divine races.
That battle shook heaven and earth, the fighting was so fierce that the sun and moon were obscured, and the colors of heaven and earth changed… In the end, all three hundred disciples of the Primordial Supreme perished on the battlefield, only the Primordial Supreme himself, barely clinging to life, remained standing.
But the results... were like miracles. Both the Divine and Demon races suffered heavy losses, forced to retreat... Thus, both the war between humans and demons, and the war between humans and the Divine and Demon races, came to an end.
The old man stopped again, turned his head to look at the bronze statue ahead, and continued, "After that, the Primordial Supreme fell silent. It is said that his injuries were too severe and he eventually attained enlightenment, transforming into a supreme law to protect the foundation of the human race."
And the ultimate battleground, Heavenly Dao Mountain, was later called the Sacred Mountain of Humanity.
“Later, due to the fact that the Primal Supreme had passed away, the God and Demon races, after recuperating, regained their dominance and began to relentlessly persecute the Human race, squeezing their living space. Until today... The Human race has fallen from one of the three major races in the past to the only tenth-rank race group today, losing all its glory and dignity.”
Hearing this, the five cultivators beside him fell silent.
They had expressions of awe and contemplation in their eyes.
This history, they had never heard of it before.
Now, standing here, listening to their great-grandfather recount this history, they can only feel immense awe.
The very people, the Human race, who are now looked down upon by all other races, once lived through such a glorious era.
"Grandfather, since the Demigod and Demon Clans have already gained complete dominance... why hasn't the Human Clan been exterminated yet" The female cultivator bit her lip and asked.
The old man shook his head and said, "There are many sayings. One saying is that the supreme law left by Yuan Shi Supreme after his transcendence protected the foundation of the human race, preventing the demons and gods from completely wiping out the humans. The second saying... is that the demons and gods deliberately allowed the human race to survive."
To reduce the Human race, one of the three great tribes back then, to dust and treat them worse than animals would be the cruellest fate imaginable for humankind.
"Humiliation, this is the ultimate humiliation."
humiliation…
Five celestial cultivators around him had strange looks in their eyes.
Indeed, compared to simply wiping out the human race, this seems a more cruel blow.
Today, a significant number of humans still reside on the Yunyu Continent.
However, as much as seven out of ten became slaves to other groups, with no status whatsoever, lowly and insignificant like ants.
On the Cloud Falling Continent, the only race that was despised by all other races...was the Human Race.s a tremendously significant discovery!I must bring these two strange-looking creatures back and study them thoroughly!"Answer their questions, find a way to bring them back... Don't scare them away!"...
