one's door

Zhang Yan smiled and looked at Bai Yu without making a sound.Bai Yu's words have already been answered silently.

"Hehe, Zhang Jiaoxi thought it was because of the existence of our demon species? Haha, yes, not exactly." Bai Yu continued with a smile: "Actually, Zhang Jiaoxi should have met the special case department from Nanyuan Kingdom, right?" ?They, like us demons, have the means to deal with the spirit race. It's just that their means are not enough to deal with the powerful spirit race like the Holy King.

In fact, there are special yamen similar to the special case department in every human country, and they serve the same purpose, but the names are different.

If we add it up, we, the demon clan, have contributed a lot to deal with the spirit clan, maybe [-]%.The special case divisions of various countries count as a force.Can you guess where the remaining [-]% of Lizhang's teaching came from? "

Zhang Yan didn't expect to hear this, and at the same time, Bai Yu asked questions that he had before.Let him guess now, it seems that there is only one answer, right?Although that answer sounds a bit strange, it must be unique.

"The monster race has sixty percent of its strength?"

Bai Yu nodded, and said: "That's right. The reason why the Desolate Heaven Realm can now suppress the Spirit Race in the Sanctuary, and can only do evil outside is limited, and a large part of the reason is because of the Monster Race."

"I would like to hear the details." Zhang Yan straightened his body.Whether it's the Yaozu or the so-called sanctuary, he is very curious.At the same time, he also realized that what Bai Yu was going to say next was likely to be the overall situation in which the forces in the entire Huangtian Territory were intertwined.It is possible to solve many of his seemingly unreasonable doubts about the relationship between the monster race and the human race, and between the human race and the ghosts in the wild sky.

Bai Yu didn't make any detours, and continued directly: "This starts with the way the sanctuary is connected to us. The existence of the sanctuary is not completely connected with the world we live in. Similar to a limited two-way channel, there are two ways of size and size. A cave. The place where we live is the 'big cave', and the sanctuary is the 'small cave'. The Eldar travel between the two places through passages.

That kind of passage is called "the way of death and silence" by Yu Zu. "

Zhang Yan knew that Bai Yu's so-called "Yu Zu" refers to Yu Wenbing, the strange man who wrote "Miscellaneous Scrolls of Spiritual Affairs" and tried to change the situation of the demon species.

But what Bai Yu said about the "Deadly Way" and the existence of the sanctuary hardly differed from Zhang Yan's previous judgment.That is the ghost domain recorded in the classics of the Dragon and Tiger Mountain Gate.It is also a gap between heaven and earth, a kind of overlapping different space.

"Although the existence of the Way of Death and Silence has always been hidden, it is only for the human race and our demon species. For the demon race and monster beasts, they have the talent to find it quickly.

Moreover, some special monsters and monster races who have practiced special methods can intrude into the sanctuary along the path of death and silence in reverse.It will not be passive defense like the human race here. "

Hearing this, Zhang Yan frowned, because although it was the first time he had heard what Bai Yu said, it didn't take too much effort to figure out the problem from it.Some contradict reality.

For example, if the Yaozu can adopt a strategy of both offense and defense when targeting ghosts, coupled with their unique restraint methods against ghosts, this way of coming and going can indeed involve most of the energy and strength of the sanctuary.But this doesn't fully explain why ghosts are so "restrained" on the human side.Even the human race has demon clans like the Special Case Division and Bai Yu as checks and balances.

In other words, the platooning of the human race is not enough, so that the ghosts are not so self-restraining.On the contrary, in Zhang Yan's view, ghosts should wreak havoc on the human territory even more violently when they are sluggish on the monster territory, so that they can benefit from other places to a greater extent, strengthen themselves, and increase their The odds of winning when wrestling with the Yaozu.

Bai Yu also saw Zhang Yan's frown, and said with a smile: "It's right for Teacher Zhang to have doubts. What I just said just now can't explain the reason why the human race is relatively peaceful.

If we want to explain it clearly, then we have to break down the situation of the sanctuary.

There are nine great saint kings in the sanctuary, but there is no subordinate relationship between them.Instead, each manages its own.

The nine great sage kings are divided into four upper sage kings and five lower sage kings.Among the top four holy kings, three are spirit races reborn from monster races, and one is spirit race born from human races; while four of the lower five saint kings are transformed from human races, and one is transformed from monster races. ..."

Chapter 261 Pattern

Zhang Yan listened very carefully. What Bai Yu told him before was about the situation among the human race, the demon race, the spirit race, and the demon race in the entire Huangtian Territory.The demon species speak the least and have the least population, so they can be ignored.The other three races have reached a very delicate balance.

But there are some logical holes in this balance.So what Bai Yu said later is to use facts to make up for these logical loopholes.

According to Bai Yu, the nine holy kings of the sanctuary are actually divided into two factions.One group is the "demon spirit" who transformed from the demon race into the spirit race, and the other is the "human spirit" who transformed from the human race into the spirit race after death.On the whole, the "demon spirit" faction is stronger, because they occupy a full three seats among the top four holy kings.Although the "Human Spirit" faction has one more seat, it is mostly among the next five great sage kings.

The reason for this situation is actually that the two sides did not like to see each other when they were alive, and they became ghosts after death and continued the inertial senses in life.Just like the current relationship between the human race country and the demon country, it has been passed down from generation to generation and is deeply rooted.

Secondly, it is also because of the racial differences between the monster race and the human race.The monster race is not only physically tyrannical, but the strength of the soul is generally higher than that of the human race. After death, the ghosts will naturally be much stronger than the human race in all aspects.It is the gap at the starting point, and it will form high and low when it continues to the back.

Correspondingly, if the demon spirit wants to grow itself, although it also needs to devour, the profit of devouring the living soul of a demon race is much higher than that of devouring the living soul of a human race.Moreover, many small tribes of the Yaozu live scatteredly, and it is easy to do it. They even often go out of the sanctuary in groups to sweep up the tribes on the edge of the Yaozu and Yaoguo, which is called "Lark Night Hunting".

It was extremely rampant.

It comes from nature.Whether it is a monster clan or a demon spirit, their nature is rough and tyrannical, and what they like is the way of opening and closing.

At the same time, because the quality of life and soul of the Yaozu is higher, all the dead and silent paths of the Yao Kingdom are strictly controlled by the Yaoling faction.Correspondingly, it has also withstood all the offensive and defensive pressure from the Yaozu.

This is the so-called enjoyment of its benefits and its harm.

On the other side, although the human spirits are weak and unable to occupy the Dead Silence Dao of the Yaozu territory with better quality of life and soul, they still hold all the Dead Silence Dao on the Human Race territory in their hands.And it adopts a completely different strategy from that of the demon spirit.

Find saints, use saints as the starting point to establish a certain size of power in the human race, and then rely on this power to lurk and raise, supplemented by low-intensity erosion, and restraint in continuously gathering souls to strengthen yourself.

In this way, a very interesting pattern has been formed, that is, they are both members of the sanctuary, but because of their respective origins and ideas, they are divided into two distinct factions, which leads to the fact that the power in the sanctuary is not unified under normal circumstances of.That is to say, although the monster race and the human race are resisting the sanctuary, they are not exactly the same.

This created the delicate balance between the several ethnic groups in the wild sky domain that Bai Yu mentioned before.

"It seems that the news about the demon clan represented by Your Excellency Bai Yu is very unusual. Speaking of which, the rumors that the demon race is struggling in the demon race and the human race may not necessarily be true?"

Zhang Yan quickly digested the situation of the Huangtian Territory and the layout of the Sanctuary that the other party said, and combined with some of his previous speculations and analysis, he basically had a relatively complete cognitive logic in his mind.

On the contrary, Zhang Yan had a new curiosity about the monster behind Bai Yu.As for the things in the sanctuary, it is impossible to get such information in the human race.Because according to the other party's statement, the human race can't find the kind of deadly way that can connect to the sanctuary, so they can only get news about the sanctuary from the monster race.

Even Yu Wenbing, the author of the "Miscellaneous Scrolls of Spiritual Affairs" that broadened Zhang Yan's horizons and knowledge, should have learned detailed information about the sanctuary from the monster clan before he could write the book and spread it.

And what did Yu Wenbing say in Bai Yu's mouth?It's "Yu Zu"!This shows that the entire demon clan respects and even worships Yu Wenbing!

Following this to a deeper place, doesn't it mean that the demon species has quite deep eyes and ears in the realm of the demon clan?Perhaps it is deeper than they opened a metapharmacy in the human race.

Does such a demon species still belong to the living situation of "rejected by the two races"?It doesn't look like it.

Bai Yu had expected that Zhang Yan would suddenly ask this question in advance.After a short pause, he smiled, with a somewhat melancholy or indifferent tone of voice, and said: "The situation of the demon species is actually not much different from the appearance of everyone yelling and beating in the outside world. Zhang Jiaoxi saw that I came to see you after taking such a big turn today, so I should be able to see it.

It was only because of necessity that we were able to survive in the cracks between the two races, and we found a way to turn around.Even compared to us on the human side, life on the demon side is actually easier.After all, the demon country is too big, and the various tribes are scattered, so it is much easier to hide and travel. "

A "need" fully expresses the particularity of the demon species.

But what exactly do demon species need?And what are the needs?Based on this "need", what kind of tolerance limit did the demon species receive in the two races?Zhang Yan couldn't ask these things yet.Because it involved the core of the demon species, he knew it would be inappropriate to ask, and the other party would never tell him easily.

After Bai Yu said so much, she also stopped, picked up the tea on the coffee table and took a sip.Then he said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, dealing with the Sanctuary is a job for our demon species, and it must not be sloppy. But the spirits in the human realm have always been very good at hiding. It is difficult for us to find it, and we will not dare to find it." To clean up directly, we can only take the method of tracking and regular cleaning as control, which seems too passive.

The method shown by Zhang Jiaoxi before seems to have more direct insight and targeted methods for the spirit race.I don't know if these can reveal a thing or two?Of course, we won't let the teachers do their jobs in vain, as long as the teachers are willing to help, feel free to ask for anything. "

Means against ghosts?Is this a requirement to teach?

Zhang Yan leaned back in the chair, feeling amused.His methods against ghosts come from Taoism.Only monks can use Taoist means. Although all the monsters can be said to have developed both mind and body, almost all geniuses in the wild world, but it is not the case when it comes to Taoism.Even if he is willing to teach, the other party cannot learn.

"In addition, I don't know if Zhang Jiaoxi still has bone-strengthening pills in his hand? Our demon clan is willing to ask for some according to the price of the teacher."

In addition to means, there is Dan.The demon species is determined and unwilling to let go of this rare opportunity easily. It is rare that he and Zhang Yan are familiar with each other before.

Chapter 262 Fish Like

Zhang Yan was not in a hurry to answer, and he wasn't even going to give an answer today.Of course there is no rejection.

The warehouse was rented out, and Bai Yu even wanted to give Zhang Yan a [-]% discount on the fee, but Zhang Yan refused.Zhang Yan really has no shortage of money, after opening up the sales of magic weapons.Wanting to give him money as a favor is no longer feasible.

After returning, Zhang Yan has been thinking about the reasons behind Bai Yu looking for him this time.

The more he thought about it, the more Zhang Yan felt that Bai Yu, or the demon clan, seemed to be at ease, not as simple as he said.There are still many things that are not appropriate to say.

For example, Bai Yu mentioned that the reason why their demon species still have "room to survive" among the demon and human races is because they are "useful".

Zhang Yan is not yet fully aware of the specifics of this "usefulness", but targeting ghosts and eliminating ghosts must be one of the "usefulness" of monsters, even a very important one.

In other words, whether it is a sanctuary or a ghost, it is an important target for the demon species to reflect its own value and existence.

Here, what Zhang Yan can be sure of is that the demon species represented by Bai Yu will definitely not be limited to Nanyuan Kingdom or other Three Kingdoms countries, but like the Jiangwu Academy, it should be a big force that spreads all over the human race. .Even if the monster species on the side of the monster clan are counted, it will be even bigger.

But although they are huge, the number of demon species is their biggest weakness.The combination of the human race and the demon race is already a cross-ethnic group, the fertility rate is extremely low, and the reproductive ability of the demon race is even lower.If it wasn't for the outstanding individuals, the group would have been difficult to develop and would have been annihilated by itself.

In comparison, no matter it is the monster race or the human race, they all have an absolute advantage over the monster race.Gives you room to live when you need it.What if I don't need you anymore?Will you take back everything that was given to you?After all, the combination of human race and monster race is forbidden in both races.There is a very bad ideological opposition.

Well, with the above context.Then we can look at the relationship between demon species and ghosts in a different direction.Definitely not the relationship between "yamen servant" and "thief".Rather, it is a relationship similar to that between a big fish and a small fish in a pond.

Big fish eat small fish, and small fish eat shrimp.If there are no small fish, what will the big fish eat?Big fish can't eat shrimp, so will they starve to death?

"In this way, it is false to ask me to eliminate ghosts, and it is true to test the depth!" After Zhang Yan figured this out in his heart, he suddenly felt enlightened.

It even seems that the appearance of Zhang Yan is not good news for the demon species.Because before Zhang Yan, apart from their demon species, only the half-baked guys from the special case department could fight with ghosts. The demon species' ability to have companion beasts is the main force to deal with ghosts.

Now if Zhang Yan's ability can be taught at will, it will be very bad for the situation of the demon species in the human race!It belongs to the kind that smashes people's jobs and pushes people's courtyard walls, leaving no way out.What's more, Zhang Yan is now working as a guest teacher in the Academy of Martial Arts, and also teaching in the Academy of Miscellaneous Studies in Xinnong. If he can teach, wouldn't it be easy to spread the word to the outside world?

Of course, these judgments were made by Zhang Yan based on the environment of the human race.He doesn't know the situation on Yaozu's side, so he can't think so far.

The demon species will not know that the threshold of Daoist methods is much higher than that of warriors, and it is not so easy to learn.At least for the time being, it is actually a bit unfounded.In the future, it's hard to say.

"Should I refuse? Or... another way?"

Zhang Yan was thinking about things on the recliner in the backyard, while supervising Xiaoshi to fill in the names of acupoints on the two sketches of the human body.No mistakes are allowed.Xiaoshi has been doing this for several days. From the very beginning, he was completely relying on blindness, and now he can basically locate more than [-]% of the major acupuncture points on the human body.Even Zhang Yan had to admire how smart this kid is!If he had this memory back then, how much less beating would he have suffered?

"Brother! Look, you won't be beaten this time, right?" Wang Nian triumphantly put down his pen, picked up the two sketches of the human body and ran to Zhang Yan to ask for praise.He was very confident this time, and felt that he would only make three or five mistakes at most.Because there were only three or five, he was not sure.

"Okay, let me see." It's at home now.It won't be a problem for Xiao Shitou to call Zhang Yan "brother".Zhang Yan is also curious about how many little stones can be against this time.

Looking carefully, Zhang Yan laughed, the little stone made two mistakes in total, and they were two minor details that were not so important.This means that Xiaoshi can officially start practicing the basic skills.

"Okay, today you can start formally practicing the "Returning Qi Method"."

"Hahaha!"

Seeing the kid bouncing around excitedly, Zhang Yan also smiled happily.As for the first disciple, although he is still a registered disciple for the time being, Zhang Yan is very caring.He didn't even dare to use the more subtle exercises in Wanxiangzhu to lay the foundation for Xiaoshi, but took out the "Returning Qi Method" he had practiced.What I want is a word of stability.I was worried that my knowledge was not enough, and I could not give Xiao Shitou the most detailed guidance when practicing other exercises.

Maybe when Zhang Yan's cultivation level is higher, and he understands the principles more deeply, he may dare to try the so-called exquisite and powerful exercises in Wanxiangzhu on his new disciples in the future.

That night, Zhang Yan began to guide Xiao Shitou to practice for the first time.It was much smoother than Zhang Yan had imagined before.Shitou's breathing before has achieved a little success, there is spiritual energy in the body, it can be regarded as an entrainment environment with half a foot in, and this baby is also very talented, and the sense of energy is even more acute, and it only takes less than [-] minutes. In half an hour, the first group of spiritual energy was successfully completed.

After that, you just need to slowly turn the air mass in the dantian into a cyclone.At that time, the air-entraining environment of the little stone will be considered.

"Brother, this is not difficult, it's just sucking in all the spiritual energy to form a ball, and then mixing them together. It's just very grueling. My father said that this is water grinding, and you don't need to rely on your brain." Wang Nian thought I understand very well.After finishing speaking, Zhang Yan knocked on the forehead.

"Operating the aura is the key! Who told you that inhalation is the key? Still 'stirring', if you mess up the aura in your lower dantian and damage your foundation, I can't help you. At that time, you are a useless person, so don't learn any Taoist methods, just go back and farm."

Wang Nian scratched his head, smirked a few times, and said, "Hey, brother, you still have to inhale it first and then turn it on. Don't hit it, don't hit it, I get it, I get it! Ouch!"

Chapter 263 Inspiration

The little stone has a solid skin and an oily mouth, especially after getting acquainted with Zhang Yan's family, he shows his true nature.

Zhang Yan was extremely thankful that he had forged a golden hoop. He couldn't remove the small stone by himself unless he untied the formation on it.This thing brought a great "shock" to Xiao Shitou.

After setting up the small stone, Zhang Yan returned to his room, instead of directly entering the state of practice as usual, but holding a piece of iron essence and gold essence, thinking about other things.

After helping Xiao Shitou to complete the first aura formation just now, although the ignorant and proud words Xiao Shitou said aroused his forehead a few times, they also gave him some reminders in other aspects by coincidence.Or some inspiration.

In the final analysis, spiritual energy is indeed inhaled into the body before it can follow up the subsequent exercises.The word "suction" seems rough, but it is not wrong.It's just that Xiaowa'er looks at things too directly, which seems unreasonable at first glance.

But this word "suction" also reminded Zhang Yan that the hesitation and new discoveries that he had made after talking with Bai Yu today seemed to be able to focus on this word "suction".

Don't you want to try some methods that can target ghosts from Zhang Yan?Although Zhang Yan can't teach the method, but he has other methods.

For example, "Shocking Bell".Of course it's the beggar's version.

Formation and refining techniques, Zhang Yan can do it now, but the grade can only be controlled at the lower grade.The only energy used is the longevity stone, which is the spirit stone.

Sucking ghost bell, shooting, is to suck.When approaching a ghost, it will automatically ring when it is disturbed by the evil spirit and hostility of the ghost, and after the formation is activated, it can actively generate the power of absorbing the ghosts within the range, absorbing wild ghosts and some weaker ghosts Locked up in the sleepy array among the bells.It will lose its function after it can't be closed, and it needs to be cleaned once.Or the spirit stone ran out of energy, terminating the bell's ability.

How to clean up?Naturally, it is directly superseded.Even the ghosts locked in the trap don't need to be released, they can directly enjoy the fun of transcending through the bell.

So here comes the question, why do those monsters choose to absorb those ghosts instead of directly feeding their companion beasts like Zhang Yan has seen before?

The answer is the Bone Strengthening Pill in Zhang Yan's hand.

Not all demon species can have companion beasts like Bai Yu.Companion beasts are also uncommon in the demon species, and only those who belong to the demon species can encounter and have talents through this.Most of the monster species are still taking the path of advancing both civil and military, and basically all of them are outstanding.

But being outstanding doesn't mean reaching the top.It's just that the lower limit of the demon race is much higher than that of the average human race, whether it is learning literature or martial arts.But the upper limit also needs talent, luck and many other factors to create together.The numerical weakness in this aspect makes the demon species not conspicuous in terms of top-notch power.It fell to the disadvantage of the human race and the monster race in an all-round way.Otherwise, how could you be caught between the two races and have to rely on your own "usefulness" to find a place where you can only stand up?

Therefore, if Zhang Yan's method against ghosts is actually a tentative attempt by the demon species, then the purchase of the bone-strengthening pill is a solid and earnest hope.

The reputation of Strong Bone Pill is not based on bragging, but endorsed by Shi Xuan, the commander of the Eastern Army.The bottleneck in the early stage of Duanshan Realm, a breakthrough in just a few months after one pill went into the middle stage of Duanshan Realm.

That's Duanshanjing!A small realm is a huge improvement in strength.

How many warriors are there at the end of the mountain in the demon species?And how many of them are stuck in the bottleneck of the small realm where it is difficult to make progress?One year, two years, ten years, eight years, the longer you get stuck, the more impetuous you become, and the harder it is to make a breakthrough.Even some warriors have mental problems due to the collapse of their minds.

Now Zhang Yan can use the ghost bell in exchange, whether it is a wild ghost or a weak ghost, these ghosts can be nourishing to Zhang Yan, compared to his own little bit of breath to get aura I don't know how many times faster.

Judging from Bai Yu's stalking of the Wu family father and son before, they were actually raising the ghosts around the Wu family father and son as pigs.When Bai Yu appeared, he was probably here to kill pigs.It's just that Zhang Yan came out, and Bai Yu met the spirit general on the way, and then he suppressed himself before he began to think about Zhang Yan's methods.

It is also impossible to have only one white feather.Outside of Nanyuan Nation, how many psychic mediums are there who are being followed by demons to raise pigs in so many multi-ethnic countries?

Not to mention the amount of absorption, there is [-] to [-] percent, which is enough for Zhang Yan to open the altar every day to practice things.When the time comes, little will add up, and Zhang Yan feels that he can make the practice speed that is now as slow as a snail speed up again.This is even faster than him traveling around looking for ghosts to save him.

At the same time, the advantage of doing this is that it can make the demon species produce a method that is difficult to teach, and the method that can be passed on is only dead objects, and it can only have effects on wild ghosts and weaker ghosts.Nothing to worry about.

As for time, it always flies by quickly without knowing it.When Zhang Yan didn't need to cover up, he really didn't need to worry about anyone's coveting or hostility.

Do it when you think of it.

Zhang Yan first got acquainted with the main magic circles of the Sleeping Formation and Ghost-Suppressing Bell.Point to the beggar's version.In the end, when the sky was about to dawn, he really asked him to make a low-grade ghost-sleeping bell.

The reason why it took so long to succeed is that Zhang Yan made an attempt to make the groove of the spirit stone embedded in a seamless pattern, just like the design of a flashlight with batteries.It's just that if you want to open the replacement port of the spirit stone, you need to find out his magic circle lock. The refining technique here is relatively complicated, which is a bit reluctant for Zhang Yan. It took many attempts before finally succeeding.

After it is finished, due to the restriction of the grade, apart from the limitation of the ability to absorb ghosts, this ghost-absorbing bell can hold at most twenty wild ghosts, or three weaker ghosts.

And these amounts, three times, Zhang Yan can exchange for a bone strengthening pill.This is also what Zhang Yan thinks is not too "expensive".

Didn't do much either.Just one, wait until dawn to find Bai Yu and hand it over, and then let the other party see the effect.
