Zhang Yan hasn’t stayed up all night reading a book for a long time.
Zhang Yan read through the three volumes of "Miscellaneous Volumes of Spiritual Matters" in one night, and the general contents of them were all put into his mind. There were familiar parts and some novel parts. Although it is not a complete picture, it is definitely enough.
Let him draw a rough outline of a ghost belonging to the Wild Sky Domain in his impression.
According to Yu Wenbing in the book, ghosts are called "spirits" but are subdivided into five types.
Ghost hunting should be the target of wild ghosts. But compared to the wild ghosts on the earth, the ghost hunting in the Wild Sky Realm is much worse. As the lowest level ghosts, they have almost no room to continue to grow, and they are not recognized by other ghosts.
, a lot of clues can be seen from just the word "hunting". Let's look at the actions of the ghost boy Zhang Yan saw on the mass grave before. Combined with the sayings in the book, ghost hunting is a kind of prey or something.
food, hunted.
Spirit boys and spirit feeders. These are two kinds of ghosts. Moreover, they have not been recorded in the Longhu Mountain Sect’s classics, and there are no specific types of ghosts in the Wild Sky Realm that can be used as analogies. In fact, if you look at the essence of these two, they should both belong to fierce ghosts.
Category. But because of their different positions in the ghost ecology of the Wild Sky Realm, they are subdivided.
As for why these two kinds of evil ghosts are mentioned together, it is also because of the special relationship between them.
It's like the pigs and the pigherds in the pigsty. The spiritual boy is the pig, and the spiritual feeder is the pigherder.
To be honest, when Zhang Yan saw this, the thought that came to his mind was: Is there such a thing?
Although there are no such records about ghosts on earth, Zhang Yan has had some experience in the wilderness. The most intuitive and the most impressive one for him was in front of the beheading stage in Langyuan City East Market.
I witnessed with my own eyes the scene of a large, two small and three evil ghosts eating the souls of prisoners on death row.
Could it be that the female ghost in red is the "spirit feeder" mentioned by Yu Wenbing in the book?
Are those two ghost children the "spirit boys" who were raised as pigs?
Since Zhang Yan regards him as a pig, the fate of the soul boy will naturally not be much better than that of the pigs in the pig pen. It can even be said to be exactly the same fate.
It’s just that it’s not easy to raise a spirit child in captivity, and it takes a long time. If you’re lucky, you’ll have five or six years, and if you’re not lucky, it’s not unlucky for thirteen or four years. Once you raise a spirit child, the person who enjoys it will naturally not be a spirit feeder like the female ghost in red.
, but are higher-level ghosts in the circle of strange ghosts in the wilderness. For example, the two ghost cultivators dressed as generals that Zhang Yan saw. They also have a specific name, called "Spirit Generals".
Zhang Yan's understanding is that these "spiritual generals" are the main "fighting" existences among ghosts. They are no longer pure ghosts, but have entered the ranks of ghost cultivators. Compared with half-hearted people like spiritual feeders, these spiritual generals are the real ones.
The ghost cultivation in Erba Jing is just very different from the number of ghost cultivation paths recorded in Longhu Mountain Gate.
The higher up the spiritual generals are the Holy Kings with higher status. The "King" in the few words intercepted by Zhang Yan is most likely the Holy King. If the analogy continues, the Holy Kings must be at least ghost cultivators at the level of the Ghost King. It is also Zhang Yan.
Yan understands the quality of the opponent he needs to face next.
But do you think it’s over here? Is this the state of the ghost circle in the Wild Sky Realm described by Yu Wenbing in three volumes?
No, no, no, these are not all, nor are they the parts of these three volumes that concern Zhang Yan the most.
The third volume, "Spiritual Miscellaneous Volumes," introduces a new concept called "sacred territory."
It doesn’t really matter what it’s called. What’s important is that this so-called holy realm is described in this sentence in Yu Wenbing’s book: a spiritual kingdom constructed entirely of spiritual creatures.
This is very scary.
Zhang Yan had previously speculated that since there was a ghost king, would there be ghost mansions and ghost cultivating sects? But he never thought that he was still short-sighted and they would just create a "country" for you.
Ghost Country. Isn’t this much scarier than Ghost Mansion? Even when Zhang Yan saw the three words “Ling Guo”, what he thought of was actually “Underworld”. But when he thought about it, he discovered that Underworld and Yu Wenbing’s description of “Underworld”
Although "Land of Spirits" are both gatherings of ghosts, the former is "reincarnation and control", while the latter is probably "self-contained".
The two may seem similar, but in fact they are fundamentally different.
Then here comes the problem.
Since there is a holy realm like the "Land of Spirits", why is it that the human race can still be calm and calm, and there is not even any knowledge that can be related to it?
Oh, that's not right. This "Spiritual Miscellaneous Volume" actually explains it in great detail, but it was passed around among the human race and was not accepted by anyone. It was even treated as a joke. This in itself seems very abnormal.
, very illogical. It is understandable that the miscellaneous scholars who are obsessed with natural subjects do not believe in Yu Wenbing's theory, and those mainstream schools of thought do not believe in these things either? The more Zhang Yan thought about it, the more he felt that he had discovered something strange.
Is this only true in Nanyuan Kingdom? Or is this true in all human kingdoms?
In addition, since Yu Wenbing comes from the demon race, what he learns must come from the accumulation of demon races from generation to generation. Does this mean that compared to the strange reactions of humans to ghosts, it is completely opposite to what the demon race has inherited.
Is it really unclear, do you really think it’s just imagination? Or is there something else hidden?
No matter how Zhang Yan looks at it, he feels that it must be the latter. Otherwise, it will definitely not explain how the human race can maintain a normal life for most people without being "knowing nothing" and not being used as a hunting ground by the so-called "sacred territory" to take everything from it.
.What else is hidden in it?
But out of curiosity, the information Zhang Yan has now does not support him to make more deductions at all. One thing he can know is that the Wild Sky Realm is far more complicated than he imagined, and it cannot be revealed by the little things he sees with his eyes.
Full picture.
Finally, the "Spiritual Miscellaneous Volume" also gives some speculations. For example, Yu Wenbing speculates in the book that the Holy King is not the Lord of the Holy Domain, and there are not just one or two but many. What about the existence of these Holy Kings?
What status is it? Or is there such a thing that can rule all the saint kings? Or are all the saint kings like scattered sand fighting on their own?
Zhang Yan stretched out, opened the door, took the bucket and went out to fetch water.
At the beginning of a new day, Zhang Yan has new expectations. For example, what does the Holy King mentioned in Yu Wenbing's book look like? What methods are there? Zhang Yan is curious whether he can unlock the things in "Spiritual Matters Miscellaneous Volume"
Guess?
With his thoughts at this point, Zhang Yan also sorted out the grievances between the Wu family and himself, as well as the Holy King and him.
To put it bluntly, the Holy King and the ghosts under his command were all used by the Wu family. Maybe the inside story was kept in the dark. But judging from the ubiquitous peeks during the recent period, Zhang Yan guessed that the Holy King
He must have reacted. That's why he didn't attack him rashly, but wanted to hone his details through these peeks. Perhaps, when it comes time to take action, many of the methods and strategies that he used to think of as unintended will not be good.
