The children were both boys and girls, of even gender, and the age difference was not very big. The younger ones were like the boy Chen Hao saw at the beginning, about two or three years old, and the older ones were seven or eight years old.
Not to mention adults, not even those over ten years old.
Older children do not appear to be more mature than younger children.
Basically, he has a face carved out of stone, with bright eyes, but without any emotion.
They are like a group of normal human children who have been stripped of their souls but still have consciousness.
Chen Hao didn't test them again, or even get close.
He didn't know whether the demon sent a signal or how it was sent.
But Chen Hao saw that near every child, there was a demon of pure spiritual power.
This can't be a coincidence.
Of course, the cultivation level of these pure spiritual demons is far inferior to his. Chen Hao can easily kill them instantly, but as long as he appears near children, there is a high probability that they will be seen.
And I don't know if other demons have guessed the secret he hides.
Chen Hao did not act rashly.
With the slow marching speed of this demon tide, it would probably take several years to reach the canyon of the Zinan Mountains. He could definitely find time to explore the secrets.
After traveling millions of miles against the current, Chen Hao finally reached the end of the fourth wave of monsters.
In this largest, almost endless tide of monsters, there are probably tens of thousands of weird human children in total.
These children seem to have little power of their own, but their perceptions are very keen and they are closely protected by other demons.
Ordinary mental means cannot detect what they are.
Even though Chen Hao had the ability of the Blood Phantom, he was discovered after the first trial and was forced to terminate.
Chen Hao did not stop and continued flying north.
He had already seen the legendary demon tide in advance. Not to mention the fourth tide that stretched for millions of miles with strange children, the previous three demon tides, together, were a hundred times more powerful than the previous demon tides.
Chen Hao felt a little heavy.
After seeing the anti-demon formation, he also felt that the alliance had the capital to brag.
The anti-demon formation is really awesome plus.
But after seeing these four waves of demons with his own eyes, each more powerful than the last, Chen Hao's confidence instantly fell back to the valley.
Such an impact is definitely a life-or-death test for the alliance.
However, Chen Hao did not worry too much about the fate of the alliance.
Life and death, destiny and wealth are in heaven.
Whether the alliance succeeds or fails, it is just a natural change.
Even if the demon tide breaks the anti-demon formation and all the monks enter the Southern Realm, and even all the monks from the Southern Realm die and become the same as the Northern Realm, what will happen?
Maybe, in millions, tens of millions, or hundreds of millions of years, the Northern Territory will also be destroyed by natural evolution, and new humans will arrive to start their lives and stories again.
In the long scale of time and space, everything that has happened is as small as dust.
If a monk cannot understand this truth, it will be difficult for him to break through the shackles of the world of cultivation and ascend to a higher immortal world.
What's more, Chen Hao is not from the Southern Realm in the first place, and he has no sense of the safety of the Southern Realm. He came to the demon tide just to find the truth about the demon tide and the source of the terrifying feeling.
Chen Hao has a feeling that if he can find the truth, it will be an opportunity for him and it will be of great benefit.
Whoosh whoosh... With his mind and body flying at full speed, Chen Hao flew across tens of thousands of miles with every breath.
Wind and lightning cannot describe his speed, it's like moving instantly.
Ten million miles passed by in a few minutes.
This time, Chen Hao did not see the tide of demons again.
Even wild monsters are rarely seen anymore.
As far as the eye can see, there is only endless black and gray area.
It seems that the fourth wave of monsters just took away all the monsters.
Of course, Chen Hao knew that this was not the real reason.
The reason why there are so few monsters is because the natural dangers are increasing, and the dangers in Chengdu are also increasing sharply.
In this case, the number of demons will naturally not be large.
After all, the dangers of nature are truly ruthless and unconscious, devouring everything they encounter, no matter you are a monster or something.
Chen Hao saw a lot of ghosts and monsters.
Although these ghosts and monsters are not as weird and special as the dark cloud ghosts and stick figures that Chen Hao saw before, they are still very strange, have all kinds of strange abilities, and can even come and go freely in natural dangers.
Chen Hao was very interested and stopped to observe. He wanted to catch a few ghosts with special abilities and go back to refine the inner elixir.
But after watching it for a while, Chen Hao lost interest.
Although these ghosts' abilities are special, their application is extremely narrow, and they are only suitable for certain unique natural and dangerous environments in the Northern Territory.
Outside of this environment, abilities are useless, neither against the enemy nor against oneself.
Maybe it would be useful if we encounter a similar natural environment again, but the world of cultivation is so big, who can guarantee that we will encounter the same kind of environment again?
There is no such thing as evolution in the world of cultivation, but it is obvious that the abilities of these ghosts have evolved based on the environment. They are like creatures living in a closed system without light and do not need eyes, so their eyes will degenerate.
Once they leave this environment, these ghosts are not even as good as the most ordinary monks, and any monster can eat them.
"It's useless..." Chen Hao sighed and continued on his way.
He didn't feel any pity. The abilities of heaven-defying ghosts were not so easy to encounter.
Even if you encounter it, it will be useless if it is not suitable.
All the way north, tens of millions of miles in a hurry, it was all like this.
Chen Hao has never encountered a wave of monsters again, so naturally he cannot see the cause.
"Am I still too late to see the formation of the demon tide?"
He thought to himself.
This way, we did go deep into the Northern Territory, but we looked lonely and couldn't find how the demon tide was formed.
If we had to wait until next time, it would take at least several decades. How could Chen Hao have the patience?
He continued to fly forward.
The cause of the demon tide has not been found, but at least there are some clues.
The biggest clue is the fourth wave of demons and the tens of thousands of weird human children.
As long as we understand what is going on with human children, the tide of monsters will probably be over.
Flying north now is to find the source of the great terror.
The feeling is getting clearer and clearer, but the Northern Territory is endless, and I don't know where to fly to see the source.
Chen Hao didn't mind finding the answer the first time either.
Just fly, wherever you go, wait until the demon tide is over, and you will have time to explore later.
Soon, several hours passed.
The third day comes.
Chen Hao stopped. If he flew forward at full speed, he would not have time to rush back before the end of the third day.
Must turn around.
This is a place hundreds of millions of miles into the Northern Territory. It is very far-reaching, but the front is still an endless black desert, and nothing unusual can be seen.
Chen Hao took one last look and prepared to turn around and go back.
Suddenly, he felt a slight flash in front of his eyes, and seemed to see something.
