"Oh, I'm fine. Do you know where the newly established king of spiritual beasts came from? Also, the entire spiritual beast clan is now dominated by Elder Suzaku, and other elders have not stood up to oppose it.
"?" Lin Yi asked on behalf of the ghost.
"The current situation of the spirit beast clan is indeed dominated by Elder Suzaku's family. The other elders basically don't speak out much. Almost all the power is in the hands of Elder Suzaku. Within the spirit beast clan, at least on the surface, they don't listen much.
There are voices opposing it." The big spider nodded.
"Yes, he is the regent elder after all. Elder Suzaku's current status is much higher than that of other elders." The Fire Lion also nodded in agreement: "As for where it found the king, it is unknown.
We have just arrived. We have only joined the spirit beast clan for a short time. We have no qualifications or background. Now we are just the lowest-level guards, not even one-star deacons. How could we know such a core secret..."
"Where does the king come from? This question is probably only known to the king himself and Elder Suzaku. Others, let alone lowly people like us, even those elders probably don't know the inside story." The big spider said.
Added on the side.
"Oh..." Lin Yi nodded and did not say anything more, but was waiting for the ghost's reaction.
"Okay, I have no problem anymore. You don't have to worry about me, kid. I need to take a good rest now." The ghost seemed to have regained his composure, and sighed in Lin Yi's mind, and then there was no movement.
"Okay." Lin Yi responded silently, but he was a little worried in his heart. Even when he first encountered a ghost in the secular world, when it was at its most depressed and embarrassed, he didn't feel as sad as he does now.
malaise.
The cruel reality of Suzaku seizing power is probably very difficult for the ghost to accept, especially since it is far from recovering. Even if it knows the truth, there is nothing it can do.
"By the way, Star Ink Milk is in this ruined city. Why do you have to wait for human cultivators to come and get it? Isn't it the same if you collect it yourself? If someone finds Star Ink Milk and takes it directly, instead of
If you take them out like this, wouldn't you suffer a big loss?" Lin Yi turned around and continued to ask the previous question.
"Oh, there is nothing we can do about this. We alone cannot collect Star Ink Milk. We can only place our hope on the human cultivators who come in to hunt for treasures. As for whether they will take it directly, the possibility is not very high.
, even if they really take it directly, the loss of this little bit of star ink milk is of no concern to us." Fire Lion smiled and shook his head.
"Why is this? The Star Ink Milk is in that pool. It's not difficult to collect it?" Lin Yi couldn't help but look at Huang Xiaotao in surprise. Even a three-year-old child can do this kind of thing, so why can't it be collected?
"My benefactor, haven't you noticed that the place called Xingmoru is actually an altar?" the big spider asked without answering.
"I know, there is a statue of a spiritual beast there. But does it matter?" Lin Yi looked at Huang Xiaotao in confusion.
"That statue is said to be the appearance of the former King of Spirit Beasts, and the entire altar was set up by him himself back then. He also left a sentence saying that the Star Black Milk is a treasure given to our spirit beast clan by God, but it will never
We are allowed to spend as much as we want, so we can't go up to collect Star Ink Milk at all." The big spider shook his head.
Sure enough, he looks like the King of Spiritual Beasts! The big spider's words confirmed Lin Yi's previous guess. Just one statue can make people surrender unconsciously. The King of Spiritual Beasts is indeed a transcendent existence that can subdue all beasts.
"But the previous king of spiritual beasts has been missing for so long. Times have changed. Do his original words still have such a strong binding force on you now?" Lin Yi asked strangely.
Since the spirit beast clan completely abides by the principle of respecting the strong, the king of spirit beasts is no longer there. And now there is a new king, so-called emperor and minister. They should follow the orders of the previous king of spirit beasts.
You can't be so loyal...
"The words themselves don't necessarily have much binding force. The key is that there is a naturally formed sky thunder array on the altar. It doesn't matter if you human cultivators walk up to it, but if we spirit beasts go up, it will be hit by five thunders..."
Spider smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"It's such a thing? It's no wonder." Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao suddenly realized that collecting star ink milk, which is easy for humans, is so difficult for the spirit beast clan.
"So, in order to collect Star Ink Milk, we kept secretly releasing information, and even specially asked other members of the spirit beast clan to find opportunities to give out some seemingly very confidential map information, in order to attract humans to practice
Come over and get the Star Black Milk, and then we will intercept it at the entrance of the teleportation array, hehe..." the Fire Lion said with a proud smile.
"I'm dizzy, you two are doing a great job in this business without any capital..." Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao were both speechless.
Looking back now, Chang Daoping had always boasted that he was very familiar with the deacons of the spirit beast clan, so he got the extremely secret layout of the ruins. I bet it was the idea of these two guys. They were just playing tricks on him. Unfortunately
He was still so proud that if he knew the cruel truth of this matter, he would probably shed tears.
Only now did Lin Yi understand. No wonder this dead city was not as decayed and dilapidated as he had expected. No wonder the streets were not so dusty. The entire so-called Ao Duo Cultivation City ruins were a set up from beginning to end.
As soon as the super bait like Star Ink Milk is released, it is estimated that no human cultivator will be able to escape the trap. After all the hard work, in the end he will be used as a coolie for nothing, and he will have to pay for all his property. It’s really
I can't even cry.
"Hey, this is all a ready-made business without capital. If you don't do it, you won't do it. That's what we are here for. Otherwise, who else will come to this damn place to look after the door." The big fire lion and the big spider looked at each other and smiled.
If they didn't have so much extra income, they wouldn't be willing to work as guardians of the ruins. Just relying on the small task rewards issued by the spirit beast clan, they would never be able to make any progress in this life.
After all, unlike in the secular world, they are now in the late Nascent Soul stage, and their limited resources are simply not enough for cultivation. People are not rich without windfall, horses are not fat without night grass, and there is no way to get the oil and water without fishing for money.
In fact, if you really just want to collect Star Ink Milk, there is a more convenient and concise way. Just grab a random human and let him collect the Star Ink Milk in a special altar, so that you can live together easily. (To be continued)
