It was Lei Lingshen who discovered the connection between the Ancient Vine Immortal and the Ancient Vine Demon.

At first, Lei Lingshen instinctively felt that the Ancient Vine Immortal was "missing" a little, but after a closer look, he found that he was fully alive and well, and he didn't notice anything...

Until later, he remembered an old story. During the ancient war between the three tribes, a similar situation seemed to have occurred, and then he reacted! During

the war between the three tribes, the gods sent the acquired gods headed by the two gods, Xuanyuan God Emperor and Jiu Tian Xuan Nu, to help the human race. At the same time, the innate gods such as the Five Spirit Gods were also persuaded by Xuanyuan God Emperor to go together and fight with the demon leader Chi You in Zhuolu...

At this time, we have to talk about two "people", that is, Yinglong and Nv Ba, who helped Xuanyuan God Emperor to defeat Chi You and made great contributions to defeating the beasts in the battle of Zhuolu.

Both "people" are not real gods. Yinglong is a real dragon, and Nv Ba is a goddess... the daughter of Xuanyuan and the body of a demigod.

At that time, the gods did not fully understand the calamity of reproduction. Emperor Xuanyuan married a human daughter and gave birth to Nüba. Although Nüba was only a demigod and did not fully inherit the power of Emperor Xuanyuan, which resulted in the death of the gods, it took Emperor Xuanyuan a long time to recover, and his power was permanently reduced.

Yinglong is the first generation descendant of the "Dragon Ancestor", that is, the real dragon - the Dragon Ancestor is not a certain dragon, but the nine innate dragons are all called "Dragon Ancestor".

Including Lei Lingshen himself, he is also one of the nine dragon ancestors, but he is usually closer to the other four spirit gods.

Although the innate dragon gods also have the calamity of reproduction, it is much weaker than the calamity of reproduction of other gods. The nine dragon ancestors can give birth to descendants, but "no more than three times", each dragon ancestor, or each pair of dragon ancestors, can give birth to three real dragons equivalent to "acquired gods", and the real dragon can give birth to nine sons. The nine dragon sons are comparable to the first generation of beasts with the strongest bloodline, but like the beasts, they no longer have the immortality of the gods.

Most of the Dragon Ancestors were won over by Fuxi and became the leaders of the God Clan. Lei Lingshen was full of resentment because other Dragon Ancestors stood aside when the God Clan plotted against him. Even before he was sealed, he was not close to the Dragon Clan.

Most of the real dragons belonged to the God Clan. Some of the dragon sons joined the God Clan, and some went to the Demon Realm with the Beast Clan...

When Pangu's heaven and earth were broken, one of the Dragon Ancestors, Minglong, grabbed a larger piece of debris, opened up the "Dragon Realm", called himself "Zulong", and no longer interacted with the three tribes. Some of the Dragon Clan followed him.

During the war between the three tribes, Yinglong and Nvba also caused some trouble. Because neither of them was a pure God Clan, they practiced in the way of the God Clan when the means of cultivation were limited and there were not many tricks at that time, and their progress was very slow.

Therefore, the two thought of a "good way" and jointly developed a set of secret techniques that could expel their own demonic nature - that is, part of the evil thoughts corresponding to "divinity"!

However, it was later proved that this "good method" was a pitfall. Although it temporarily exchanged for a soaring realm, when practicing later, it was constrained by it and difficult to make progress.

Moreover, the "demon nature" that was expelled would also form a demon-like creature that was opposite to the original body!

The demon nature of Nüba turned into Hanba, which caused several droughts after the battle of Zhulu. In the end, it was Emperor Xuanyuan who sealed it personally. The demon nature of Yinglong turned into the demon-like Yinglong, and it came out of the seal three hundred years ago to cause trouble...

Lei Lingshen also thought of this, so he suspected that Gu Tengxian might have practiced the "secret technique" left by Yinglong and Nüba. However, it is said that "demon nature" is opposite to "divine nature". Yinglong and Nüba expelled "demon nature" because they had impure "divine nature" - as for the so-called "demon clan", it was purely the beast clan that was angry and insisted on calling a name that the gods hated the most.

The Ancient Vine Immortal and the Five Elders of Shushan Mountain obviously have no divine nature...

However, after being exposed by Guan Liyuan, the Ancient Vine Immortal also sighed and said, "Back then, I, the old fellow, discovered this 'divine art'. Relying on my body of grass and wood, I didn't know how many times I chopped myself up, and I worked hard. Finally, I changed my body into a demon race and could practice it. Who would have thought that it was an evil art...

Decades ago, I let it slip when I was discussing Taoism with a few boys from Shushan Mountain, and they wanted the art from me. Although I reminded them of the danger,... Hey, I thought that with their arrogant temperament, they would not give up. Sure enough, they are in trouble now!"

It seems that the Five Elders of Shushan Mountain obtained the "forbidden art" from the Ancient Vine Immortal. No wonder there is such a ridiculous forbidden art in the Shushan orthodox Taoism.

And with this relationship, it is more reasonable for the Five Elders of Shushan Mountain to sit back and watch the Ancient Vine Immortal imprison the Ancient Vine Monster here.

The reason why this secret method is evil is not only because it can expel the evil body, but also because it will have an impact when practicing to a higher level. It is even more so. Whether it is the Five Elders of Shushan or the Ancient Vine Immortal, if they do not practice this secret method, even the current half-immortals and earthly immortals may not be able to cultivate it!

The most evil thing is that after the evil body was split, the deity could not kill it. We are of the same root, why are

we so anxious to fight each other... No matter how determined I was before, when facing the evil body, I will eventually move my "compassion", after all, there are few people who are cruel to "themselves"!

So Yinglong only sealed his demon body at the beginning, and Nüba even needed her father to seal it.

After the Five Elders of Shushan further improved this secret method, it produced more serious consequences. After the demon race and the demigods split, they still produced demons and demigods, but the human race was different.

Among the three ancient tribes, the human race is the weakest, but it has the strongest reproductive ability. Although many beasts now have stronger reproductive abilities than humans, the stronger the beasts are, the more difficult it is to reproduce, and the reproduction is not stable. The stronger the beasts are, the more likely the next generation will deteriorate. As for the reproductive ability of the gods... hehe!

The reason is that Fuxi was born from Pangu's "god" and "the law of heaven and earth", so the gods he created are the most perfect; Shennong was born from Pangu's "qi" and "the law of creation", and the beasts he created are the most diverse, and the strong ones are not weaker than "gods", but they do not have the eternity of "gods"; Nuwa was born from "essence" and "the law of yin and yang", and the human race she created is harmonious in yin and yang, and can reproduce stably.

But it is also because of this that, from the perspective of reproduction, the human race is the most perfect. The split evil thoughts... are no longer "humans", nor "gods" or "beasts", but a monster that is not within the scope of the six realms of creatures, and can even borrow the evil thoughts of other creatures...

Moreover, the five elders of Shushan were also very pitiful and succumbed to "compassion". They did not extinguish these five evil thoughts at the beginning, but followed the bad habit of "throwing bad things into the Demon Locking Tower when you encounter them and don't want to kill them", and put them into the Demon Locking Tower.

As a result, five evil thoughts that did not belong to the six categories of "gods, demons, immortals, monsters, humans, and ghosts" merged into the current evil sword immortal...

"You, go over." The ancient vine immortal said with a look of fatigue.

Then, a vine as thick as Guan Liyuan's arm span turned out from the ground and extended to the depths of the ancient vine forest. This was exactly the "road" that the ancient vine immortal prepared for Guan Liyuan.

The reason why Gu Tengxianren would admit defeat now and let Jingtian and others pass in the original work was because he was struggling in his heart and he gradually began to tend to kill his evil thoughts.

Although the ancient vine monster is also just a "monster", it is different from the ordinary blood-eating monsters. The evil monsters who practice the blood-eating way, even if they are rotten to the point of pus, are not necessarily without a trace of good thoughts. The ancient vine monster is different from the evil sword fairy - they themselves are the embodiment of "evil thoughts"!

The bet of the ancient vine fairy is not a bet between himself and himself...
