Chapter 840 The Former Shrek Seven Devils
When he heard him say the five words "Shrek Seven Monsters", Tang Wulin felt a huge shock in his heart. All the situations that were not explained clearly before could finally be explained clearly. Moreover, at this moment, he felt in his heart that the fat old man did not lie, and everything he said was true.
Speaking of this, the obese old man and the old demon of desire were silent. Obviously, recalling what happened was a very painful experience for them.
The old demon of desire sighed, "When we first came to the vicinity of this Devil Island, we were all very shocked. The sea area here has undergone earth-shaking changes. We only completed the landing with the help of the Federation through some technological means. At that time, there were already many sea soul beasts in the nearby sea area, and they were extremely powerful."
"The Federation issued a decree four thousand years ago to protect soul beasts and not hunt them at will as much as possible. Sea soul beasts are already the only soul beast system on the continent that has complete existence. Therefore, we could not kill them at that time. After landing on the island, we began a series of reconnaissances. I believe you also felt that there was no existence of any life breath here, only some particularly terrifying smell of destruction. All vitality seems to have been deprived. We can also feel that we cannot survive here for too long."
"But the reconnaissance has to continue. We are seriously searching for everything on the island, looking for all possible life forms and clues. Finally, we still found the destruction fragments."
"At that time, our strength was already quite strong, at least much stronger than your current level. We found the valley and finally felt the existence of life energy. Our first reaction at that time was that we encountered an adventure. So, the seven of us stayed in the valley and conducted further investigation."
"But at that time, unlike now, when we arrived at Devil Island, the destruction aura of Devil Island was outside, and the breath of life was contained in the valley. The destruction fragments at that time had not yet fully exploded. So, when we saw the destruction fragments, they were just a huge lens, which seemed to have endless energy inside. Can you think of how we felt at that time? We felt that we had discovered the treasure. And it was a very remarkable thing."
"We belong to Shrek, and of course we want to bring this treasure back to Shrek for research. So we try to take out the destruction fragment. Then, the tragedy happened."
The fat old man's face was filled with sadness. He picked up a chicken leg from the table and bite it hard.
The old demon of desire smiled bitterly and said, "We triggered the destruction fragments. There was almost no reaction time. All seven of us were torn into pieces by the terrifying destruction energy above, and the corpse was left untold."
"Ah?" Tang Wulin exclaimed.
The fat old man sighed: "At that time, we didn't feel any pain, we just felt that everything was becoming confused, everything around us was blurred, clear, light, and dark! Everything seemed to be away from us, but it seemed like we were approaching quickly."
The old demon of desire said, "I don't know how long it took, we finally gradually woke up. However, we still permanently lost our own body. We exist on the island in the state of spiritual bodies. Some of the life and destructive energy here can be controlled by us."
"Later, we carefully studied and discussed it. We felt that this situation might have happened, and it was probably because of the life energy that saved us. The power of destruction destroyed our bodies, but the life energy protected our souls in time. That's why we old demons later existed in such a strange form. It was life energy that extended our lives and allowed us to live for thousands of years."
"We have always guarded this place and kept people from curious to explore it. And this Devil Island also belonged to Shrek from that moment on. After all, this was obtained by paying the price of our lives. We can no longer leave this place, because once we leave the life energy here, we will die and our souls will dissipate. So we can only stay here, waiting for the Shrek Academy to send the best talents to help the academy provide a certain degree of training."
As the fat old man said, when he told the complete process, Tang Wulin believed him. Because everything he said was completely reasonable and seamless.
The old demon of desire sat there with a loss of regret, "We have lived a much longer life than ordinary people, but we can no longer return to Shrek, and we can no longer see the magnificence of the Sea God Island. We can no longer feel the little bits and pieces of the human world. We can only stay here and be an old demon."
The obese old man said: "Training you is indeed a bit of a bad taste, and it will also bring you a lot of pain. But if you think about it carefully, you will find that this method can actually allow you to grow faster. It not only exercises your abilities, but also exercises your mentality. Only after encountering strong setbacks can you know how precious life is and face the world more cautiously. Do you understand what I mean?"
Tang Wulin nodded slowly. The nightmare old demon used such a means as a threat. Tang Wulin learned to fly a plane, absorb the energy of destruction and merge with himself, so that his breath could have the part of destruction and could come and go freely in this sea area.
Although the old demon swallowed the old man made him eat was extremely disgusting, it undoubtedly brought him rich life energy, neutralizing the possible damage caused by the destruction energy. It allowed him to fully experience the process between creation and destruction, and sublimate himself.
The old demons hate them to use pain to train their perseverance and let them stabilize their hearts in severe pain.
What the old demon of desire brings to them is the world's refining heart, allowing them to deeply understand that they should stay awake in their desires.
There is no doubt that all of this is precisely because of the cruel use of methods that they have made a qualitative leap in a short period of time. From over-age to youth, they have a more transition to being able to adapt to society better.
Looking back, all this is a rare exercise for them, and it is impossible to get it in the outside world and in the academy.
The fat old man smiled slightly, "You are the fastest one to complete, so you will be able to learn something peacefully from your desires. After you have learned it, you will stay on the island and wait for your friends. When they all pass the test, or if someone gives up during this period, you will leave together. According to the rules, those who come together must go together."
Tang Wulin nodded.
Although he was still wary of not being able to say anything respectful, he had already believed in all this in his heart.
The fat old man stood up, nodded to the old demon of desire, turned around and walked towards the woods, and his fat figure gradually disappeared.
"What should I call him?" Tang Wulin asked the old demon of desire.
The old demon of desire shook his head, "You don't need to call him anything. You shouldn't see him again before leaving. Okay, let's start. I can give you a lot of things. Although many things do not have any practical ability, they will be of great help to your actual combat, such as makeup and camouflage."—
