Firstly, both ethnic groups have extremely strict management of their territory. Not to mention that the foreign bandits within the territory have long been wiped out, it would be extremely difficult for any foreign species to infiltrate. Secondly, the Zhanghuang and Yi ethnic groups are connected by mountains and rivers, and they are also closely related by blood and have a harmonious relationship.
The two tribes have conducted several joint operations at their border, ensuring the air corridor between them is extremely secure.
Although the Great Immortal Tongxuan was extremely addicted to mahjong, he was not idle. While playing mahjong, he also inquired in detail about many things concerning the Yi Clan from Teng Wuji.
It seems that the Great Immortal Tongxuan had been preparing for the plan of intermarriage between the Zhanghuang tribe and the Yi tribe for a long time, and the Zhanghuang tribe's embassy in the Yi tribe must have been collecting intelligence on this matter.
"...Elder, according to Ambassador Ning, Princess Jinxiu's search for a husband is almost complete...Second Tong...The Yi Clan plans to offer ten jin of Yi Essence as dowry this time. Their target remains the same as before: to recruit a husband throughout the entire Holy Domain, regardless of race...Nine Tiao..."
"As for the specific timing of the public announcement... wait... bang... it should be at the end of this year or the beginning of next year... Four of Bamboo... it's said that it's mainly to wait for the completion of the seventh level evolution of the Brocade... Eight of Bamboo..."
"...Once Princess Jinxiu completes her evolution...30,000...she'll probably immediately announce her marriage proposal...wait...I won!...Eight missing pieces...120 per family...that's the number, right? Also..."
"Even though the Princess of the Second Race can get married, build a nest, and get rich after her fifth-level evolution... wow, this card..."
"...But Lady Lian means that the higher the evolution level of the mother nest, the better the quality of the offspring...Wait, I won! This...does having an extra Fortune card count as a perfect win?...No? Then...okay? Let's even it out, 40 for each player, right?"
"...This Princess Jinxiu's talent is truly outstanding among the Yi race. It is said that Lady Lian also evolved to level seven back then... Wait... No nonsense, I want to touch her..."
While Teng Wuji was winning the game of mahjong, he intermittently explained the situation of Princess Jinxiu. Then, he changed the subject and mentioned the "Ape and Elephant Divine Talisman." Wang Yao, who was feeling listless from losing, suddenly perked up and finally heard something he cared about.
"...The One-Chicken...The Ape-Elephant Divine Talisman is still kept by the B-Clan Academy of Sciences, but there haven't been any breakthroughs in recent research. I heard it's mainly stuck on the third divine rune...Damn it, it's the One-Chicken again...Wait, there's a reason later. I'll leave it for now. I won't attack the One-Chicken, I'll attack...attack the Eighty Thousand..."
"...According to Gao Xiaogui, chief expert of the Yi Clan Academy, this third divine rune should be the divine rune of the Mountain Moving Ape Clan...wait...let me see...sixty...seventy thousand..."
"...The Mountain-Moving Ape Clan left the Eastern Continent too early, and the Yi Clan has limited information and hasn't done much research yet... Wait, you played six of a kind? Are you sure? You won! A flush, two thousand four, right? Each one?"
"Damn it, Master, can't we talk this out properly? Can't we stop and continue playing?" Wang Yao said, frustrated. He had already lost a lot before, and now he had even lost all the money Hui Shuo had given him. The key point was that they couldn't talk properly like this.
He was still unsure about the "Ape-Elephant Divine Talisman." The Yi Clan didn't understand the divine runes of the Mountain-Moving Ape Clan, and he himself understood even less. There was a high possibility that he would be helpless when he saw the talisman. Whether he could successfully unlock the Demon Realm interface was really hard to say.
“Um…it’s alright…Nine of Bamboo…Lord Yue Lao, this divine rune was popular in the Holy Realm a thousand years ago, and it’s rarely seen now. It’s not complicated at all.” Tongxuan Daxian turned to Wang Yao and said, “Actually, the divine rune is somewhat similar to the system of immortals within your system…”
"I'm sorry, Great Immortal, my cultivation is too shallow. I really can't do well with two things at once." Wang Yao shook his head repeatedly, determined to quit.
"You... sigh... Divine runes are a method devised by powerful beings in the Holy Domain to quickly enhance the strength of their clans. They solidify their secret techniques into divine runes and pass them on to promising descendants within the clan. These runes can be used to attack enemies in battle or activated and learned when the conditions are met."
“The worst thing about divine runes is that once a powerful being solidifies their secret technique, that technique will be forgotten forever. So doing so will reduce the power of the powerful beings in the clan. On the other hand, if the descendants of the clan rely too much on divine runes, it will affect the future development of the clan.”
"This is also the fundamental reason for the decline of several powerful clans in the Holy Domain. Therefore, the clans in the Holy Domain have generally abandoned the refining of divine runes. However, the divine runes left over from the past are still extremely precious. After all, mastering one rune means mastering an extremely powerful spell."
"That's roughly how the divine runes work. Let's hurry up and play our cards. It'll be quite a while before we reach Mother City. It'll be too boring if we don't play cards!" Tongxuan said anxiously.
After listening to the explanation from the Great Immortal Tongxuan, Wang Yao understood something. This divine pattern was like a huge sum of money left by the father to the descendants, with a rule that the descendants must reach a certain age to use it. The father would naturally become poor if he took out the money, but the descendants would not be able to inherit it for the time being.
Although the descendants cannot inherit immediately, it is inevitable that the employer will become rich one day. Therefore, the descendants are too lazy to work hard and make money. They just want to lie down and wait until they get old, and then get rich overnight.
As a result, the promising offspring within the clan lose their drive and ambition. When a clan no longer strives for progress and only thinks about living off its past achievements, its decline and extinction are not hard to predict in a place like the demon realm where survival competition is fierce.
As for the divine runes that have survived to this day, it is because the races with these runes experienced major changes, or even the tragedy of annihilation, and the runes were left unused and thus became ownerless.
