Chapter 63 What is a Gift
"Of course I believe it." Mo Hui replied decisively.

Because he knew that he really came here for sightseeing out of curiosity.

But the silver dragon doesn't know.

"You, are you playing tricks on me?" The silver dragon said calmly.

"No, no, how dare I do this, what I said is true." Mo Hui hastily denied.

He was afraid that the dragon would slap him to death if he was unhappy.

"I really came here because I saw the beautiful scenery here by the lake." Mo Hui continued to explain.

"beautiful view?"

The dragon looked around.

"Do you really think so?" the silver dragon asked slowly.

"Yeah, don't you think it looks bad?" Mo Hui asked.

"The aesthetics of human beings is really strange, and they think this kind of scenery is beautiful." The silver dragon said with emotion.

"Forehead……"

Mo Hui thinks that the silver dragon is either used to this kind of scenery, or it has a different aesthetic from human beings, otherwise why does it think this kind of scenery is not beautiful.

"Don't you really think this kind of scene like being in stardust is very comfortable?" Mo Hui asked.

"Well, this scene looks like hell to me." The silver dragon said slowly.

"This……"

Mo Hui thinks that even if the aesthetics are different, it is not enough to say that this scene is hell.

"Why? As long as a creature is a place full of life, it should feel very comfortable." Mo Hui continued to ask.

"Then where do you think these life forces come from?" the silver dragon asked back.

"Where... did it come from?"

"Isn't it a gift from this lake?"

Mo Hui responded after remembering what Daming said.

"Then do you understand the meaning of gift?" The silver dragon continued to ask.

"Isn't gifting the meaning of gifting? What's the point?" Mo Hui asked very puzzled.

"It seems that you don't understand what I mean." The silver dragon said.

"Uh, please explain to me, Master Julong." Mo Hui asked.

Ask if you don't understand, this is a sentence often said by the teacher, and Mo Hui has always kept it in his heart.

"Okay, then let me explain to you."

Then the silver dragon said slowly, "The gift is the reward after giving something."

"The reward after paying?" Mo Hui repeated softly.

"Do you want to say that these life forces are obtained after some sacrifices?" Mo Hui said after thinking for a while.

"Well, that's what I mean." The silver dragon nodded her huge head and said.

"But what does this have to do with you hating this scene?" Mo Hui asked.

"It seems that you still don't want to understand." The dragon said slowly.

"Is it related to this dedication? Then what is this sacrifice? What is it that makes this lake have such a strong life force and makes you hate this place?" Mo Hui continued to ask.

"It's life, and only life can give birth to the power of life." Said the silver dragon.

Then Mo Hui saw that the life force that was originally converging towards the silver dragon drifted away and drifted towards the dark bottom of the lake.

Until the entire bottom of the lake was illuminated by the light of life force.

"Look, this is where the power of life comes from." The silver dragon pointed to the bottom of the lake under her feet.

"This...this is..."

After Mo Hui saw the scene at the bottom of the lake, he was shocked and couldn't calm down for a long time.

"The corpse, the corpse of the soul beast." Mo Hui continued with surprise.

"Well, these life forces come from the corpses of soul beasts. Can you imagine how many corpses of soul beasts such a huge life force comes from?" The silver dragon's eyes seemed to reveal a little sadness.

"This, I can't imagine." Mo Hui said uncertainly.

But he knew that it must be an extremely huge number, maybe tens of thousands, or millions.

"I know why you don't like this place but say this place is hell for you." Mo Hui said with a helpless expression.

He felt that if he was a soul beast, he would probably feel the same way.

This place is simply the cemetery of soul beasts, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is hell.

"It's good that you understand what I mean." The silver dragon said calmly.

But there seemed to be some sentimentality in the calm tone.

"But how did these soul beasts die?" Mo Hui asked.

He felt that it was impossible for these spirit beasts to all die naturally, otherwise they would not have accumulated such a huge number.

"They died in war," replied the dragon.

Her eyes were blurred, as if caught in a distant memory.

"war?"

Mo Hui was a little puzzled, where did the war come from in the soul beast forest.

And the soul beasts saw that although there were fights, they wouldn't die so many.

The silver dragon said slowly, "That was millions of years ago, our leader, the Dragon God, led us to this continent, this rich continent, where we survive and multiply."

"At that time, human beings were still very weak and did not have great strength. Most of them could only be reduced to our rations." The silver dragon continued.

"Afterwards, the Dragon God forged a divine position, became the first divine beast, and led to the prosperity of spirit beasts, but the divine beasts have been suppressed by the gods and men, and even enslaved. Lord Dragon God couldn't bear the treatment of the divine beasts, so he initiated an alliance with the gods. war."

"Although Lord Dragon God is very powerful, he was eventually defeated under the siege of the gods and humans. The gods and beasts in the entire god realm were also slaughtered, and the gods also made a rule not to allow soul beasts to have a god position."

"However, the Dragon God is immortal, because he was born from chaos, but he can be split, and his ability is divided into two, becoming me and another dragon, and then I fled to the human world to recuperate."

"And these corpses are the soul beasts that died at that time and the soul beasts that died after being seriously injured and couldn't recover."

Finally, after the silver dragon finished speaking, he pointed to the corpses lying at the bottom of the lake.

"So there is such a thing."

Mo Hui was amazed by what the silver dragon told.

However, he couldn't evaluate whether this kind of thing was right or wrong, because sometimes it was difficult to describe the war between races as right or wrong.

"Then are you a survivor of that war?" Mo Hui asked.

"Well, I've been at the bottom of this lake for hundreds of thousands of years since then." The silver dragon responded.

"Forehead……"

Mo Hui is glad that he didn't provoke this silver dragon, because this silver dragon started at least a few hundred thousand years ago.

"Then why do you still stay here? Wouldn't it be painful for you to see your classmates who died?" Mo Hui asked.

"Of course, but I need them." said the silver dragon.

"Need them? What does this...mean?"

Mo Hui was still a little confused at first, but suddenly remembered that the power of life had just gathered on the silver dragon, so he figured it out.

"So that's the case." Mo Hui showed a knowing expression.

"Well, it seems that you have thought of it." The silver dragon responded.
