The aroma of tea wafts in the air.
The wrinkles on Ling Zun's face slowly smoothed out. He drank his tea, as if lost in some distant memories.
There was a gentle smile on his face and his voice was distant.
"That was a long, long time ago."
"Back then, the spirit beast world was still in its wildest days. Numerous spirit beasts were divided into tribes, fighting endlessly year-round for territory and resources. Divine beasts of noble bloodlines possessed absolute power, while ordinary spirit beasts of lesser bloodlines were reduced to cannon fodder and pawns."
"The entire spirit beast world is flooded with blood and filled with wailing."
"Today, the mountains here are shattered by fighting. Tomorrow, the rivers there are flooded. The divine beasts who hold the majority of power treat this as an exciting war game, while the ordinary spirit beasts, treated as pawns by them, live a horrific life of uncertainty, a life worse than death."
Yun Jin's heart trembled slightly.
Today's world of spirit beasts is already a world of awe-inspiring order.
Although spiritual beasts with powerful bloodlines still have a relatively higher status.
But ordinary spirit beasts still possess basic animal rights.
In a world where strength is paramount, being able to do this is already very rare.
The world described by Bai Ze felt like it was so long ago that Yun Jin couldn't even imagine it.
How tragic would such a wild and desolate era be?
Bai Ze's eyes gleamed with memories. "Back then, I hadn't yet awakened my divine beast bloodline. I was just an ordinary spirit beast. My parents were the same. They were barely considered mid-level spirit beasts. Back then, low-level and mid-level spirit beasts were completely used as cannon fodder. During a great inter-ethnic war, they were also sent into battle."
"And then, they never came back."
Bai Ze's voice was calm.
Yun Jin's heart couldn't help but tremble.
Bai Ze smiled and said soothingly, "You don't have to feel sad for me. This happened a long, long time ago. I was heartbroken at the time, but so many years have passed that I can't even remember the pain I felt back then."
Yunjin was silent.
Considering the lifespan of a mythical beast, it would be at least 100,000 years.
Therefore, Bai Ze has lived for at least 100,000 years.
One hundred thousand years.
That was such a long time, even including the time she had spent in fast travel, it was still far from that long.
Bai Ze said calmly, "With both parents dead, survival became even more difficult for a cub like me. At that time, I didn't even really want to live. After all, I was only a mid-level spirit beast. I tried hard to survive, and then what? When I grow up, I will be sent to the battlefield, and I will follow the same path as my parents."
"In that era, except for the divine beasts, other spirit beasts were born to die."
Born to die.
Bai Ze talked about this topic calmly, and Yun Jin's mood became heavy.
She asked softly, "But the spirit beast world today is different from before. Senior Lingzun, your efforts have not been in vain."
A bright light slowly shone in Bai Ze's eyes, and he spoke slowly, "The credit for the spiritual beast world we have today is not mine. Back then, when I lost my parents, I wandered around and soon fell into danger and was dying. It was she who saved me."
"She's also a divine beast, and a member of the Phoenix clan, the most powerful of all divine beasts. But she's different from the other divine beasts. She couldn't stand the actions of her fellow divine beasts, so she turned away from them and searched for ways to resolve their disputes. She rescued many innocent beasts and established a sanctuary. It was under her protection that I, along with the other divine beasts, cultivated and grew."
"As a super divine beast, she naturally possesses privileges and is naturally superior. I never imagined that, as a vested interest, she would be willing to give up all that and choose to stand with us ordinary spirit beasts."
"She is very powerful. Although the divine beast tribe is dissatisfied with her actions, they dare not touch her easily."
"Later, my strength gradually grew, and I barely became a capable subordinate under her."
"Until this day, she told me with a worried look on her face that the conflict between the two superb beast tribes, the Phoenix Clan and the Dragon Clan, had become irreconcilable, and they had already chosen a venue for the final battle."
"This decisive battle will not only involve ordinary spirit beasts, but also divine beasts and super divine beasts. All of them will be defeated! This level of power, once fully exerted, can even destroy the entire world!"
"By then, countless lives will be lost, and the continent will crumble. The entire world will likely regress to its primitive state."
"She had been trying to persuade both sides to show restraint. But the Phoenix Clan had been fighting each other for tens of thousands of years. They were completely bloodthirsty, and with the hatred of thousands of years lingering, they would not listen to any persuasion and continued to force the war."
"At that time, she had already reached the pinnacle of her cultivation in this realm. If she wanted, she could ascend to the Immortal, Demonic, and Spiritual Realms at any time and avoid these conflicts. She had no obligation to bear the fate of other living beings."
"But she still chose to intervene forcefully."
"In this final battle, whether it was divine beasts or ordinary spirit beasts, all of them were bloodthirsty. The super divine beasts of the two major tribes also fell one after another. This battle was so fierce that the sky collapsed and the earth cracked, and the sun and moon lost their light."
"I still remember that terrible battle. At that time, I hid in the cave, trembling and feeling the whole world shaking."
"She stood at the entrance of the cave, guarding us while looking at the battlefield with worry."
