Chapter 556: The Extinct Dragon Race
The so-called heaven is a group of palaces built on the top of the clouds.
And the clouds are extremely thick, layer by layer, perfectly wrapping the entire planet and blocking all the sunlight. It can be said that at night, there will be no starlight.
This is not the atmosphere that a planet should have, but was forcibly made of spiritual energy.
If you have to say, these palaces are already equivalent to space stations and are above the highest point.
Below the highest point is the heavenly kingdom where humans live. The magnificent city is in the middle of the clouds. Here you can enjoy the light of the artificial sun. The small sun orbits the planet, like a satellite.
Almost all humans live in this sky area, like a beautiful cage.
And the real cage is under the clouds, the vast and cold land.
Because of the loss of sunlight, the vegetation on the surface has withered one after another, cold-blooded animals are on the verge of extinction, and the cold winter seems to never pass.
The ground is covered with circular buildings, which is a demon breeding base established by the Emperor of Heaven to cultivate flesh demons and provide meat consumption in the upper urban areas.
This civilization had already passed the ancient civilization stage of eating demon meat, and demon power had appeared in society. They believed that the demon race in the transformation stage was no different from humans, such as eating demon meat and eating human meat.
But after the Heaven came, everything changed. The civilization with universal values that had developed to its peak seemed to have returned to the wilderness era again. The demon clan became the meal on the plate for humans, bones were the material for refining weapons, and blood was the medium of casting.
The best treatment is to become a pet to be viewed or as a service slave.
Human beings were initially very repulsive to this change, but gradually became numb, and finally accepted the benefits brought by the low status of the demon clan.
Because of the requirements of the Heavenly Court, culturally it is constantly influencing humans. The normal demon clans are no longer seen in entertainment works. They are all evil villains, and focus on promoting the ancient war between humans and demon clans.
No one knows the purpose of the Heavenly Court. It seems that the five immortals are just extreme hatred of the demon clan.
at this time.
In a dilapidated city, humans had moved away long ago, and it became a refuge for the demon race.
They belong to the wild demon clan. On the one hand, they have to escape the demon hunting team, and on the other hand, they have to survive in harsh environments.
The sun's essence and moonlight were lost, and the heavenly court pulled all the spiritual energy to the clouds. In addition, the large number of surface plants died, resulting in the spiritual energy becoming thinner and almost impossible to match some medium-sized worlds.
If you want to maintain a strong body but have no magic power to supplement your source, some numb demons even choose to reduce their cultivation level to slow down their consumption.
Under this man-made Dharma-Ending Calamity.
It can be said that if this group of demons stayed here, they would just wait for death, but if they killed the clouds, they would seek death.
The plan to open the sky three times in a row failed, and the powerful demons died, making them even more desperate.
"Xiao Kui, what are you holding?"
"A cloud... Why doesn't this cloud have spiritual energy? It only rains..."
Xiaokui is a flower demon. She was originally a big star. The Heavenly Court deprived her of everything and forced her to play an evil role. She was unwilling to escape to the ground with the help of other demons.
For the plant-based demon race, one will undoubtedly die on the earth without the sun.
Her cultivation has been declining again and again! She has reached the brink of transformation. If she cannot replenish her spiritual energy, she will degenerate into a monster.
The cloud in Xiaokui's hand was Void Cloud, which was handed over to her by a bat demon who was chased before her death.
"If you don't have spiritual energy, just throw it away."
"But that bat demon must protect this cloud even if he dies. It feels very important."
"Can you eat it? It doesn't matter if you can't eat it."
What the few demons who protected Xiao Kui said was realistic, nothing is more important than eating.
They sit high in the city and try their best to absorb spiritual energy.
Although it is already very thin, it is better than none.
However, absorbing the fluctuations of spiritual energy is like a target, which is easily detected by human monks.
There are several teams of poachers nearby, who are poaching the demon race in large numbers. The bat monster that Xiao Kui encountered before was killed by a poacher.
"puff!"
A barb arrow, silently in the dark, was obviously blessed with a spell, and was caught off guard.
The monster shouted in shock: "Go away! We have been discovered."
After saying that, he ignored his injuries and pulled Xiaokui and jumped off the high building. Xiaokui is a flower demon and is not good at escaping. He can survive until now, all rely on these compatriots.
But after escaping again and again, using mana again and again, the strength of these demons became weaker and weaker, and this time, they could not escape.
Six humans teleported over and surrounded ten demon races.
A human pointed at the demon clan with his finger and muttered: "Two tiger demons, three snake demons, four-headed dog demons, and flower demons...ah all are trash."
"Ah! Xiao Kui? I used to like her dance." Another human recognized Xiao Kui. In the society not long ago, she was still a popular big star.
"It's really... it's all the past. If you catch it alive, she can sell it for a good price." The human leader said indifferently.
The human who likes Xiao Kui lowered his head and didn't speak, as if he was struggling violently inside.
Only three of the six humans took action, and the other humans just pressed the formation and hit ten monsters.
Magic weapons, talismans, particle cannons, laser glasses... all kinds of weapons emerge one after another. Compared with humans, the demon clan is simply poor.
"Damn it! If it were before, I would beat you to a scumbag with one punch!" a tiger demon shouted unwillingly.
"Tsk... what before, you monsters snatched the job, which made me so poor now! Humph, now you are just beasts! Oh, by the way, you are beasts, you have become beasts!" The human in the lead said angrily.
The tiger demon laughed instead of anger and said sarcastically: "You are still not serious about your work? If you are not capable, don't blame others for being powerful!"
"You...humph, stubborn! Kill!" The man's face turned pale and secretly came to the earth to poach because he couldn't find a good job. Cultivators like them rely too much on resources. After graduating from the Higher Immortal Academy, they did not have a high income, which would just drag down the burden on their whole family.
The offensive became more and more fierce, and the monsters were covered in bruises, but they still protected Xiaokui in the middle.
Xiaokui hugged Xukongyun and cried, "You guys run away! I can't do anything except dance and film, don't worry about me."
The tiger demon smiled weakly and said, "You are not useless... If it weren't for you, we might have killed each other in order to survive and survived with the flesh and blood of our compatriots."
This group of demons protects Xiao Kui just like a goddess who cares for herself. Although she has no use, she is maintaining the last ray of sunshine of the demons' rationality in this desperate and sunless world.
Perhaps at this moment, the demon race should regain its wildness and survive by any means. But in this way, this race will never have a future and will really become a beast in the mouths of humans.
"Damn it! I will sell you for a good price! Uh! What? Gu Liu, you are looking for death!"
When the man was about to have his last blow, he was suddenly hit from behind by his companions. Although he did not hurt him, he used thunder magic, which made him unable to move for the time being.
The sudden betrayer Gu Liu is the human who likes Xiao Kui.
He had never taken action, but at this moment he released three long swords, all of which stopped the others with lightning.
And he threw out a spirit stone and shouted, "Xiao Kui! Go quickly."
However, the spirit stone was shattered in the air. The human in charge only used a round of frisbee to break his three swords and decisively cut Gu Liu in half, forcing a wisp of soul to escape.
"Idiot! You dared to betray me for a banshee. How did you ask me to take you down to make money? You deserve to die of poverty!" The man pinched his soul and shouted angrily.
"Aren't everyone equal before? Why should the demon clan die?" Gu Liu knew that he had failed, so he simply took the initiative to say.
"Because you are a human being!" After saying that, a ball of fire exploded from the soul, and both ancient manifolds and spirits were destroyed.
After the leader cleared the portal, he glanced at everyone and said, "We came out to make a living just to make enough money to survive one day. If anyone can't get through the money, now stand up and I'll send him home!"
Everyone said nothing, and the man snorted: "Kill them all except Xiaokui!"
After saying that, his flywheel came out and rolled directly towards Xiaokui, wanting to capture him alive.
He saw that as long as Xiao Kui was caught, the demon race would not dare to resist anymore and would definitely wait for death.
But at this moment, Xiaokui instinctively blocked the void cloud in front of her, but saw the void cloud suddenly spread for dozens of meters, and a ring suddenly appeared on it, as if a door was opened.
The man fucked the flywheel to pass through the clouds, but he didn't expect to fall into the ring.
"Hmm? What kind of magic weapon is this? I actually took my demon-slaying wheel."
The man saw that there was another world on the other side of the ring, and he only thought that the Sumeru space was, and he had no idea of moving around the world. After all, if he had this ability, the demon clan would have escaped long ago, so he still had to stay here and wait for death?
He controlled the flywheel to rotate, but suddenly he was caught by a huge claw that stretched out from the ring. The claw was wrapped with a layer of black metal-like substance, and he held the magic weapon without any injury.
"A monster is hidden! I am a mysterious magic weapon, and I can't even cut his claws?"
He controlled the flywheel and claws to strife and said angrily: "Who is the monster! Come out for me!"
The magic power was driven madly, but the flywheel was pinched steadily. The next moment, dark clouds condensed in the sky, and the biting cold wind blew up, with a faint thunder sound.
"There is no magical fluctuation, this is a natural magical power! What kind of monster is it?"
Five humans formed a siege, staring at the slowly poking out of the ring.
The head was about forty meters wide, covering a giant beast with horns and horns, eyes like torches, and face without beard but with scales.
"Dragon...Dragon?"
"Impossible! The dragon has been extinct for more than 100 million years!"
When the dragon head appeared, a group of people and a group of monsters were frightened, just like seeing a ghost.
The ring could barely emerge from a head and a dragon claw.
The dragon claws held the so-called demon-slaying wheel, and the cold voice echoed in everyone's minds.
"Who smashed me with the plate?"
