deep sea.

Snake Island.

The name of the island is very ordinary, but in this sea area with millions of miles around, and even in a vaster land, this island is also famous.

According to legend, in ancient times, the ancestor of the Black Snake clan was originally a low-level monster with a yellow-level bloodline. His spiritual intelligence was still ignorant, and he was only an extremely insignificant person among all living beings.

Normally speaking, perhaps one day, this Black Snake ancestor might become the food of a certain monster beast.

But obviously no one can be sure about such things as chance.

This ancestor of the Black Snake clan, when he was hunted, fled in a panic, and for no apparent reason, he rushed to the Snake Island.

According to legend, Snake Island back then was just a barren island with few human traces and even rarer monsters.

It was an instinctive behavior for survival. No one would have thought that just this one desperate escape would create the Black Snake clan that has been passed down for countless years.

The reason lies in a spiritual plant on the Snake Island.

Under such a unified order, even if other monster races or cultivators are interested in spying on the Ten Thousand Snake Fruits, they will obviously be greatly restricted by the order of the Demon Court.

At this time, after years of rest and recuperation, the Black Snake clan has already acquired considerable strength. It is naturally more than enough to preserve a Ten Thousand Snake Fruit Tree that is only effective against snake-like monsters.

And this special person, as the word means, is a person. He is an immortal cultivator or a bloodline monk.

The land spans hundreds of thousands of miles. After long years of management by the Xuanshe clan, it has already become a world unique to the Xuanshe clan.

And spiritual wisdom, for people, is born with spirituality.

The Ten Thousand Snake Fruit Tree has produced nine fruits in three thousand years, and the Black Snake family only has one left, and the remaining eight are all offered to the Demon Court.

According to common sense, such treasures are obviously not available to the Black Snake Clan, which was still in its infancy.

It took three thousand years before and after, and finally nine pieces were produced.

According to legend, the Ten Thousand Snake Fruit can purify blood, select the higher-level snake blood contained in the blood, and have more growth potential, and even cause the blood to mutate!
All kinds of magical effects can be said to be the legend that gives the Ten Thousand Snake Fruits far more than its own value.

Today's Snake Island is not so much an island as it is a continent.

And this Snake Island, in these long years, has naturally become the undoubted core place of the Black Snake clan.

It wasn't until the collapse of the Demon Court that this state of being a subordinate and a vassal came to an end for the Black Snake clan.

After all, the existence of any stable order is inseparable from spiritual intelligence.

According to legend, the Ten Thousand Snake Fruits take thousands of years to bloom, take thousands of years to bear fruit, and take thousands of years to mature.

For the Xuan Snake Clan, perhaps the greatest luck is that when the Xuan Snake Clan sprouted, it happened to be the era when the Demon Court unified the demon clan.

The ancestor of Xuan She was even more decisive.

The ancestor of Xuan Snake was blessed with the Ten Thousand Snake Fruit, and he rose all the way up and made contributions to the Demon Court. After establishing the foundation of the Xuan Snake clan, he naturally paid tribute to the Demon Court and became a member of the Demon Court.

Perhaps it is precisely because of this Ten Thousand Snake Fruit Tree that the Black Snake Clan has become one of the very few ethnic groups in the world of immortality today that has been inherited from the ancient Demon Court and Heavenly Palace era.

No one knew that on this seemingly barren Snake Island, there was actually a fourth-level top-grade Ten Thousand Snake Fruit growing!
The fruit is named Ten Thousand Snakes, so naturally it is closely related to snakes.

Each Ten Thousand Snake Fruit is a blessing from heaven and earth, and it also has incredible magical effects on monsters with snake blood.

All descendants of the Black Snake clan will undergo a bloodline test from birth. If they have outstanding qualifications, they can live on Snake Island. Even if their spiritual intelligence is not yet awakened, there will be dedicated personnel to attend to them.

As for the demon...

Under normal circumstances, one cannot transform into a spirit until the fourth level. Even if there are treasures of heaven and earth that can allow monsters to give birth to spirits in advance, there are no exceptions. They are all rare and rare in the world.

With such a scarcity of spiritual intelligence, it is naturally doomed that most of the monster beast groups will find it difficult to build a stable and inherited order.

As for the demons of spiritual intelligence that have been passed down from the Black Snake clan to this day, although they are not in short supply, it is obvious that they are definitely not in abundance.

It may not be difficult to build a simple and crude order.

But to build a huge ethnic order that has been inherited from ancient times and has never been cut off, it is obviously impossible to be linked to simplicity and roughness.

Just relying on a basic and simple and crude order, the Black Snake clan cannot be passed down to this day.

Therefore, the existence of human beings from ancient times to the present has been part of the Black Snake clan. In other words, in this endless sea, most of the demon beast clans with inheritance, even the ancient demon court, are inseparable from humans... .

But... whether such people who have lived in the environment of the demon clan for generations and worked for the demon clan for generations can still be regarded as real people obviously needs to be considered.

In ancient times, the Heavenly Palace once defined such people as "traitors". In the world of immortality, there are many names for such people, such as "demon", "beast"...

Various titles also clearly indicate the nature of this kind of "person".

However, this kind of people rarely appear in front of the world of immortality. After all, the monster group that needs such people to be subordinate and use their intelligence to maintain the order of the group is often a behemoth.

Immortal cultivators are naturally wary of monsters.

Similarly, the demon clan is naturally very wary of people.

A demon who is just a chess piece naturally cannot be given too much power.

Just like on this Snake Island, the existence of people has basically remained at around one million since ancient times.

Ninety-nine percent of them will only be given one or two levels of qi training methods, so that they can enter the immortal path and be qualified for their duties.

A very small number of people with outstanding qualifications or certain talents may also be trained by the Black Snake clan.

The fundamental reason why the cultivation of immortals and various arts is also prevalent in the world of monsters and monsters lies in the existence of these "people".

Otherwise, with the uniqueness and arrogance of the monster bloodline, the wisdom of the civilization of cultivating immortals would not be accepted by the monster group as their own.

For the demon clan, the tide of beasts that often occurs in the world of immortal cultivation in the vast sea may be to consume the overgrown demon beasts in the sea area, and at the same time to temper the demon beasts and select demon beasts with outstanding qualifications to cultivate. Secondly, It is often for the purpose of plundering the world of immortality.

Just like the secular barbarians, all wise people go down the mountain to plunder in order to survive, and more importantly, to absorb the wisdom essence of civilization.

The Black Snake clan can be regarded as a model among them. Snake Island, which covers an area of ​​hundreds of thousands of miles, can be seen everywhere with "monsters" branded with snake patterns on their foreheads, representing the slave marks originating from the Black Snake clan.

Every demon is like a brick in the huge body of the Black Snake Clan, laid in a certain place at the right place. Link by link, the strict order of the Black Snake Clan is constructed.

Under the shroud of this order, the entire Snake Island, even though there are countless low-level monsters living in it, shows no trace of chaos or barbarism. The atmosphere of civilization and order envelopes almost every part of this Snake Island.

If an unsuspecting immortal cultivator breaks into this place, I am afraid they will only think that they have reached a hidden power, but they will not know that under the surface of this order and civilization, there is a group of monsters and beasts that have been inherited from ancient times...

And today...or rather, in recent times, this Snake Island has obviously become a little more turbulent.

If we look back on the past, the most recent time for this kind of disturbance should be when the Black Snake clan set off a wave of beasts and invaded the vast sea of ​​immortality.

At that time, the tide of black snake beasts marched straight into the sea, and their military fronts were directed towards the sea, almost destroying the vast sea of ​​immortality in name only.

The vast resources and wealth from the countless cities and towns in the Vast Sea Immortal Realm are almost continuously sent back to this island.

The large number of captured immortal cultivators who possess various skills in cultivating immortals are naturally part of this wealth, and they are also a very important core.

And during this period, it seems that the scene of the past is recreated.

Almost every day, a large number of immortal cultivators are escorted to Snake Island, wearing the iconic longevity robes, which undoubtedly clearly proves the identities of these captured monks...

What's even weirder is that among the escorting team, in addition to a terrifying giant snake, there can even be a giant dragon emerging from the sky.

The dragons who were supposed to be the mortal enemies of the Black Snake clan were now living in harmony, and were even escorting the groups of Immortality Sect disciples together...

And this almost unbelievable scene seems to have been taken for granted on Snake Island.

For Xuan She, it is a matter of course.

The same is true for people.

Yan Ming looked at the mighty procession in the sky, and his dark eyes still couldn't see the light. Only when he saw the robe of immortality, his dark eyes seemed to have some light.

But these small lights were only fleeting after all, and soon returned to darkness without any fluctuation.

It wasn't until a touch of bloody whiteness appeared on the horizon that it seemed to really touch the heartstrings. In the dark eyes, light suddenly bloomed!

Yan Ming stared at the white spot in the sky, with rare emotional fluctuations in his dark eyes.

However, this rare emotion is almost despairing and disbelieving.

"Eternal Life...Feizhou?"

The dry lips moved slightly, and an inaudible whisper sounded. Yanming seemed to be asking himself, and seemed to be confirming a fact.

But in that world, the facts... are very clear.

The immortal flying boat covers the sky and the sun, just as majestic and high as he remembered it...

But the immortal spaceship in front of me...

The flying boat blocked the sky and the sun, and there were already several ferocious cracks at the bow of the ship, as if a giant claw fell from the sky and tore the entire bow apart!

On the flying boat, most of the palaces and pavilions that looked like fairy palaces, representing status, had collapsed and were in ruins.

Most of the terrifying war equipment was broken, their aura was gone, and their aura was silent.

Among the ruins, one can still see pools of hideous blood, or broken bodies embedded in the mess...

Gazing at this scene, Yan Ming's breathing became heavy. His lips moved slightly, trying to say something, but when the words reached his lips, he couldn't say anything...

Once upon a time, he... was also a disciple of the Changsheng Sect, right?
The youngest direct descendant of the Zhenyu lineage, even the position of the Immortal True Successor seems to be just around the corner...

But all that...

Yan Ming looked at the ground. In the depression of the bluestone, there was still a pool of water. What was reflected in it was not the once promising and high-spirited Immortal, but a haggard, neither human nor ghost-like Black Snake slave.

Everything in the past is, after all, just a cloud of the past and no longer exists.

Now he is just a traitor in a foreign country, despised by everyone? magician?

Yan Ming smiled sadly, and the snake lines on his forehead were surging, making him look a little lifelike.

The sharp pain that seeped into his soul emerged at this moment, filling his whole body. Yan Ming seemed to have been used to it for a long time, but his face was slightly paler. He looked at the sky, looking at the bloody white spots, and the light in his eyes seemed to be a little richer. point.

He ended up like this because his skills were inferior to others.

But Xianmen, why is this happening?
Why did the Everlasting Airship collapse?

How could it fall?
The snake patterns were surging crazily, seeming to warn and suppress. Yan Ming remained indifferent, staring at the streaks of white, but soon, the light in the dark eyes slowly dimmed.

The skinny body was finally a walking corpse, numbly shuttling through the snake nest. Pieces of flesh and blood containing rich essence were thrown into the snake nest to feed the young Black Snake who was regarded as a descendant by the Black Snake clan.

Among them, there are still many numb people who are not much different from this skinny body. The only difference is that they may be like walking corpses, or they may have sound minds.

But without exception, most of these people have extraordinary cultivation. If there are outside cultivators here, I am afraid that at a glance, they can tell the names of many of them.

In the world of immortality, these people may be respected by countless people, or they may have boundless immortality and extraordinary talents...

But here, they are not much different from those natural demons.

Of course, in fact, they may have a much lower status than those born demons.

At least, demons still have some freedom and some rights, but these people...

Day after day, they are like puppets with a set program, shuttling back and forth in this snake nest, never seeing the end...

Life is worse than death, and death is not an option!
