She looked up, her bright eyes fixed on him without blinking.
Do you know how I ended up in Wang Bang back then?
Di Moyu gently brushed the strands of hair from Jun Feijue's face behind his ear, a cold glint flashing in his eyes. "Actually, it was because he was being chased and ended up in an extremely dangerous place. He barely escaped with his life, only managing to survive by using a life-saving treasure given to him by his family."
Thinking about that place he went to back then has become the most unpleasant shadow in Di Moyu's heart.
He knew that if he wanted to overcome that shadow, there was no other way but to go back to that place again.
But the creatures in that place are clearly beyond his current capabilities; if he were to go there again, he would likely perish.
Is it that scary?
Upon hearing this, Jun Feijue became curious. In her eyes, Di Moyu had always been fearless and powerful, and it seemed that no one had ever appeared who could make him wary.
"Um."
Di Moyu nodded slightly, his breathing quickening slightly. "The creatures there are very strange. They have limbs like humans and can walk upright, but their skin is grayish-black. They have sharp ears and teeth, ferocious faces, and a pair of sharp horns on their foreheads. Their strength is extremely powerful."
Previously, Di Moyu only thought those humanoid monsters were terrifying, but he didn't know their actual strength. Now that he is about to enter the Saint Profound Realm, he realizes after recalling that their strength is at least that of a Saint!
Thinking back on that experience, he still feels lingering fear; if he hadn't been lucky, he probably would have died.
Actually, he couldn't understand why, after leaving that place, he would end up in a small place like Wang Bang.
"Man-eating demon..."
After hearing Di Moyu's description, Jun Feijue's expression suddenly became serious.
"Um?"
Upon hearing this, Di Moyu's expression turned serious. "A-Jue, you seem to know?"
"Um."
Jun Feijue sat up, wrapped in the blanket, and frowned. "As far as I know, in the southeasternmost part of the mortal realm, there is a place called 'Endless Ruins'."
Later, with Jun Feijue's explanation, Di Moyu learned that the creature was called a "human-eating yaksha," and its true form was a demon beast.
After reaching level nine, a magical beast transforms into a monster.
The man-eating yaksha was a demon beast that was corrupted by evil spirits when it took human form. Therefore, its cultivation level was at least that of a human saint.
The demon beasts were already able to transform into human form, which meant they had half a Dao body and were capable of cultivating in accordance with the will of Heaven. This is why they became the targets of evil spirits.
The man-eating yaksha has a complete soul, but it has been corrupted by demons. Its heart is filled with bloodlust, and its greatest pleasure is eating people, which is why it is called "man-eating yaksha".
"A demon, another demon."
After listening, Di Moyu felt sorry for those demonic beasts, and hated the evil spirits even more. It was already extremely difficult for demonic beasts to evolve into monsters, but in the end, the evil spirits took everything away from them.
It's really pitiful.
"The ultimate goal of evil is to destroy the Heavenly Dao. Humans are born with the Dao body, and in their eyes, they are the continuation of the Heavenly Dao."
Jun Feijue also felt very uneasy. "Therefore, anything associated with them must be aimed at destroying humanity."
Cannibalism is one of them.
Yakshas eat human flesh, and demons devour souls; this is a recipe for annihilating humanity.
"So, according to you, the Endless Ruins are filled with man-eating demons?" Di Moyu continued to ask.
