Chapter 163: The human race and the underworld are originally one?
Hu Jingjiang, the leader of the fox tribe who was sitting in the main hall, saw that the demon king looked at Xu Zhenfeng with a different eye.
He suddenly felt unhappy and had a sense of crisis.
Hu Jingjiang coughed deliberately, and said with a worried tone: "We are arguing with the underworld like this. If the underworld is not satisfied, we can go directly to the human race to help them solve this problem.
Then it will be difficult for us in Yaoshan to enter Xiyi Realm and obtain soul crystals in the future."
The python clan leader beside him also nodded and said, "When it comes to the human race and the underworld, they are the same.
When a person dies, he or she becomes a ghost, and when a ghost is reincarnated, he or she becomes a human. It is not an exaggeration to say that the relationship between them is one and the same, much closer than the relationship between us and the underworld."
Bao Hui of the Leopard Clan had murderous intent in his eyes. He didn't even look at Xu Zhenfeng, but sneered and said, "What do you think a little monster knows about alliances? This time we have offended the underworld, and I am afraid that our Monster Mountain will be even more isolated and helpless.
Originally, the relationship between my demon clan and the underworld was quite harmonious. This time when the underworld was in trouble, I took the opportunity to ask for benefits.
When our demon mountain is in trouble in the future, I am afraid that the underworld will do the same."
After listening to the words of the three clan leaders, the demon king also fell into deep thought.
Xu Zhenfeng didn't care when he heard this. The human race and the underworld have a close relationship?
If he had not been a human in his previous life, he might have felt that the underworld and the human race should be one and the relationship should be closer.
But it is precisely because people become ghosts after death, and ghosts are reincarnated as humans again, that there are irreconcilable contradictions between humans and the underworld.
What's more, in this world today, there are three races of humans, demons and monsters, as well as the ultimate goal of cultivating and achieving immortality that all cultivators desire.
The lifespan of humans is far less than that of demons.
Even those monsters that don't practice cultivation have a lifespan of several hundred years. Once they practice and reach the Earth Level, their lifespan will be a thousand years.
If one could enter the Heavenly Stage Great Perfection Realm, it could even be compared to the 3,000-year lifespan of the natural dragon clan.
If a human cultivator does not enter the Earth Stage, he will only live a few decades longer than ordinary humans. After entering the Earth Stage, he will also live for two to three hundred years, which is even longer than ordinary monsters.
Until the Heavenly Stage, humans only have a lifespan of 500 years, which is still not as long as those ordinary monsters.
Even if one could reach the perfection of the Heavenly Stage, his lifespan would be about the same as that of an Earthly Stage monster.
If the human race is unable to gain enlightenment and understand the great way of heaven and earth and ascend to the divine realm in the state of great perfection.
When one reaches the end of his life span, he will have to go to the underworld to be reborn. In the next life, he does not know whether he can retain his wisdom and talent and continue to practice.
Human beings have practiced hard for dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of years, and are about to enter the next stage and increase their lifespan again, but because the lifespan of this stage has expired, they have to die with hatred.
You have to reincarnate and practice again in the next life. If your innate wisdom and talent can be retained after death, you may be able to surpass your cultivation in this life if you work harder in the next life.
If unfortunately one's wisdom and talent cannot be preserved after death, one may become an ordinary human being with a lifespan of only a few decades in the next life.
What's more, the demons have been secretly intercepting the souls of human monks after their death.
Even if he retains his intelligence and talent, he may become a meal for the demons.
Just from this, you can tell how many human cultivators want the underworld to change their lifespans?
In particular, some cultivators are about to reach the age of 300. They only need another five to ten years of hard practice to enter the heavenly realm and extend their lifespan again. However, because their lifespan has come to an end, they have to report to the underworld.
How much do you think the human race hates the underworld?
But the underworld can do nothing about it. Heaven and earth have their own laws, and the lifespan of human beings is determined accordingly.
If human cultivators always want to change their lifespans and the underworld agrees, then what is the meaning of the underworld's existence?
If the underworld dares to arbitrarily change the lifespan of human beings, it is going against the will of heaven, and the punishment of heavenly thunder is no joke.
Even the ghosts in the underworld, including the King of Hell, are afraid of death and disappearing into thin air.
What's more, both the human race and the underworld need to ensure their own strength and compete for talents.
Let alone the demons, even the human race would want to control the underworld, right?
Thousands of years ago, the previous King of Hell in the underworld had a crazy idea and wanted the human race to die and never be reborn.
After all the living people died and turned into ghosts, the power of the underworld was greatly increased. Then the demons and the demon mountain were wiped out, and finally the entire world was ruled.
As a result, this dreaming King of Hell was also punished by the thunder from heaven, and his soul was shattered.
Therefore, since they cannot go against the will of heaven, many great human monks retain the strength they had during their lifetime.
There are many people who would rather stay in the underworld and hold official positions than be reincarnated.
After all, the lifespan of ghosts is much longer than that of monsters.
Those great human monks who are open-minded will stay in the underworld to hold important positions after their death.
It is better than the torture of practicing hard in reincarnation for life after life, but never seeing the chance to suddenly realize the great truth of heaven and earth.
Not to mention, after reincarnation, one might not even have the talent and wisdom to practice.
The struggle for strength is one of the irreconcilable contradictions between the human race and the underworld.
The human cultivators finally cultivated to the earth and heaven levels, but because their lifespans had come to an end, they could only die and turn into ghosts.
You need to have enough good luck in the next life to start practicing again.
If a great human cultivator wanted to ask the underworld for leniency and change his lifespan, the underworld would never agree.
If there is one race in this world that can never work together with the underworld, it is the human race.
The underworld dared to let the human race enter the Xiyi territory to wipe out Xiyi. The next step is that the human race will have to fantasize about entering the underworld and controlling their own life and death.
Therefore, even if the demons suppress the ghosts, there are not many conflicts of interest between the demons and the ghosts.
Precisely because the demon race suppresses ghosts but is constrained by humans, the demon race is actually the mediator between humans and the underworld.
Xu Zhenfeng laughed a few times and said to the Demon King: "Your Majesty, if the underworld is willing to ask for help from the human race, why would it come to our demon race for help?
Of course, humans want to get involved in the underworld, but does the underworld dare to let humans get involved?
We, the demon race, helped the underworld to sweep through the Xiyi Realm, and we just asked for some magic weapons, elixirs, soul crystals and other things.
But the human race has their own magic weapons and elixirs, and the things in the underworld may not be as many or as good as what they have.
They can also replace soul crystals, which are embedded in magical instruments to increase their power, with other treasures from the human world.
If the underworld asked humans for help, the human race would probably ask the underworld to kill King Yan, and he would not dare to agree.
The underworld asked our demon clan for help, and our demon clan only asked for some small benefits.
But what the human race is asking for from the underworld is probably the foundation of the underworld."
After finishing speaking, he glanced at the patriarchs of the leopard, python and fox tribes intentionally or unintentionally, and said another sentence.
"My demon race will never go through the passage to the underworld, whether for life or death. This is the fundamental reason why the underworld would rather give up its interests to ask for help from my demon race than to ask for help from the human race."
Then he seemed to remember something and immediately added, "The existence of my demon mountain seems to be the human race letting the demon race restrain the underworld.
But our demon race is the greatest help for the underworld to fight against the human race and the invasion of the demon race.
The Lord of the Underworld knows this better than anyone else. The Underworld will never distance itself from my Demon Mountain."
The Demon King nodded slowly. He had known all this for a long time and understood this truth.
But no monster has ever been able to explain the conflicting interests between humans and the underworld so clearly.
The key points of the mutual involvement and restraint between the human race, the demon race and the underworld are explained so simply and directly.
