Chapter 519: Hybridization and Dragon Making
Li Yanmo didn't have much impression of Longmen, he only knew that it was very expensive.
When Ao Tian first mentioned Longmen, Li Yanmo wanted to invest in its construction immediately. Unfortunately, Ao Tian's Longmen plan had only reached the stage of creating a new folder, and it would take another hundred years to come up with a serious plan. Ao Tian was unexpectedly very principled and was determined not to invest until obstacles were revealed.
So there was no follow-up to this matter.
Now that Ao Tian has come in a hurry, there should be a plan.
"Ao... Xiao Ao, have you finished the plan for building the Dragon Gate?"
Li Yanmo really didn't want to see an old senior like Ao Tian kneeling down to listen to him, so he had to suppress the subtlety and entanglement in his heart and asked softly like an old senior.
"Uh, Lord Li, I'm working on the Longmen...plan."
"Where are we?"
"I'm going to tell you about this part."
Li Yanmo looked at Ao Tian with mixed feelings.
The dragon race is a long-lived species. Unlike cultivators who become long-lived through cultivation, dragons have almost no real sense of time. Sometimes they take a nap and when they wake up, it is already more than ten years later.
Fortunately, he just wanted to find a reason to call the dragon clan here, and didn’t really want to build a dragon gate, otherwise he would be angry to death.
"...Xiao Ao, there are some things I don't want to hide from you. In fact, I asked you to come here not just because of Longmen, but mainly because of the matter of the Immortal Palace."
Ao Tian blinked his eyes and covered his mouth in astonishment, "Master Li, you——"
"About this matter, I actually..."
"You are actually willing to become the backer of the dragon clan!?"
"Yes, yes, yes," Li Yanmo nodded subconsciously, but after tasting it, Li Yanmo suddenly felt something was wrong.
Are you willing to become the dragon clan's backer?
Ao Tian was touched, "Master Li, I understand. You must be planning to use the construction of the Dragon Gate as an excuse to protect our dragon clan, right?"
This is, right, right?
Li Yanmo suspected that he had come to the wrong world line.
When did a clan as powerful as the dragon clan need others to support them?
However, seeing how moved Ao Tian was, it was definitely not a good idea to ask directly. Li Yanmo pinched his chin and thought for a while before asking in a deep voice, "Is the situation very bad?"
Ao Tian, who was certain that Li Yanmo wanted to protect the Dragon Clan, nodded and imitated Li Yanmo's lowered voice, "It's terrible. The void left after the Eight Wastelands was uprooted is too big. The terrain there is flat and does not have the terrain advantage of the Ten Thousand Monsters Mountain. Now we have barely suppressed the impact of the Naraku Demon Clan with our large numbers, but that is only temporary."
"This incident caused a lot of unrest among the demon tribes. In addition, the Dao Sect's Million Alliance is now in name only. There are many voices among the demon tribes to form a demon tribe alliance and elect a demon emperor!"
Li Yanmo frowned and subconsciously thought of the Immortal Palace.
The Immortal Palace suffered a great loss in the matter of the Eight Wastelands, and it will definitely not give up. However, the Immortal Palace can no longer use the Taoist sect. Taking advantage of the Taoist sect's Million Alliance's demise to use the demon clan seems to be the best option for the Immortal Palace at the moment.
"What does this have to do with the dragon race?"
"The dragon clan is not a monster, but they occupy the ecological niche of commanding all monsters. If the dragon clan is not eliminated, the monster clan cannot become a whole, and there will be no true monster emperor in this world," Ao Tian said.
Li Yanmo didn’t quite understand the so-called ecological niche, but given the status of the dragon clan in the universe, if the demon clan wanted to form a demon alliance, there was definitely no way to bypass the dragon clan.
"The demon clan, could it be that they have obtained some secret weapon?"
Li Yanmo understood the cause and effect, but still didn't quite understand why the dragon clan needed Tianxu Tower as their backing.
The dragon race is able to occupy the so-called ecological niche not by relying on human relationships, and the demon race has never been a group of good guys and girls.
If there was anyone among the demon race who had the ability to kick the dragon race out of its ecological niche, the dragon race would have been kicked out long ago and would not have waited until the incident in the Eight Desolations.
"It's not really a secret weapon, but..."
Ao Tian hesitated for a moment and then lowered his voice.
"They are creating dragons through hybridization."
Many question marks popped up in Li Yanmo’s mind in an instant.
He thought of many reasons why the demon race could defeat the dragon race.
For example, he took out a still warm dragon sealing pot from his crotch, which could seal all the dragons.
For example, they secretly developed a type of soldier specifically designed to kill dragons.
But Li Yanmo never expected that the demon clan actually intended to rely on hybridization to seize the ecological niche of the dragon clan in the world, and their strange postures became more and more.
"Uh... aren't they really just looking for a high-sounding excuse to have an orgy?" Li Yanmo asked tentatively after hesitating for a moment.
Although the demon race is collectively referred to as the demon race, and all appear in human form, they are actually divided into very fine categories internally, some have horns, some do not, some have scales, some do not, some are warm-blooded, some have hair, and some do not.
This distinction makes it difficult for the demon tribe to unite, and they even strongly repel each other. However, after being exposed to human appearance for a long time, their aesthetic tastes will involuntarily follow those of humans. No matter if they have horns and hair, as long as the human form is good-looking, it is good-looking.
Then the demon clan was divided into old-school demon clan and new-school demon clan.
The philosophy of the old-school demon clan is very simple: cows should do cows, and tigers should do tigers. The new school is even simpler.
As long as it looks good.
But the old-school monsters are often very strong, and they believe in the law of the jungle. When facing the new-school monsters, they will just talk a few words and then resort to fists.
After being beaten too many times, the new-school people will find all kinds of high-sounding excuses, such as the reappearance of ferocious beasts.
“I heard that it was like this in the beginning. When they found that their offspring were really becoming more and more like dragons, the matter was approved,” Ao Tian scratched his head and sighed in distress.
"This...is it so easy to create a dragon?" Li Yanmo was a little confused.
"The point is not whether they have created real dragons through hybridization, but that they have created a large number of monsters that look like dragons, and there are a lot of them," Ao Tian shook his head. "Only when there are a lot of them can they be called a tribe. Dragons are powerful and have a long lifespan, but the problem is that those with poor fertility are the same as having no fertility at all."
"If this continues, the dragons cultivated by the demon race will be the dragon race. We, the true dragon race, will sooner or later be classified as special dragon species, not the dragon race."
"In this way, the demon race will have enough reasons to establish a demon race alliance with the Dragon Race as the center. By then... I'm afraid we, the Dragon Race, will be unable to defend ourselves."
After saying that, Ao Tian stroked his beard, lamenting the changes over the years.
Although he didn't quite understand, Li Yanmo still realized the seriousness of the problem. However, thinking that the demons had a long lifespan and had no real sense of time, Li Yanmo breathed a sigh of relief and asked with a smile, "Will it take them several hundred years to succeed?"
"Come to think of it, the last time I heard about it, it seemed like they were almost successful, but it probably won't be that fast."
"The last time?" Li Yanmo felt something was wrong. "When was it?"
"About six hundred years ago."
