Chapter 459: Heading to the Tianpeng Clan
Hearing Ye Changsheng's words, the face of the Holy Lord of the Tianpeng Clan turned somewhat helpless. He smiled bitterly and shook his head, saying:
"What else can we do now? Either our Tianpeng clan's great elder advances to the Mahayana stage, then the crisis will be easily resolved!"
"Or, Bai, the only Tianpeng Saint, can advance to the fusion stage. In this way, with the blood of Kunpeng True Saint that I inherited, the Tianpeng clan's voice will be greatly increased!"
"Now, there are only these two methods, but both of them are almost impossible to achieve!"
The Holy Leader of the Tianpeng Clan shook his head and said this, as if he was not optimistic at all about his ability to advance to the fusion stage.
He is now at the peak of the Void Refinement Realm and seems to be only one step away from the Fusion Realm.
However, since ancient times, this step has blocked countless geniuses from all races. There are many cultivators in the Void Refining stage, but only a few can cultivate to the stage of Fusion.
Although the Holy Leader of the Tianpeng Clan was very confident in himself, he did not think that he could advance to the stage of fusion, at least not in a short period of time.
And since it cannot be done in a short period of time, there will not be much improvement in the situation of the Tianpeng clan.
As for allowing the great elder of the Tianpeng clan to become a Mahayana cultivator, this is even more of a fantasy and almost impossible to achieve.
The difficulty of breaking through to the Mahayana stage is much greater than that of breaking through to the Fusion stage. Otherwise, if the Feiling clan has so many Fusion stages, why are there only a few Mahayana stages?
"It seems that the crisis of the Tianpeng clan is indeed difficult to resolve. Then Brother Bai, you have to be careful. Otherwise, if you die, your Tianpeng clan will be in real danger!" Ye Changsheng said as if he was very concerned about the safety of the Tianpeng clan.
These words touched the Holy Lord of the Tianpeng Clan somewhat.
He sighed and whispered, "The Chirong tribe will not let me go. Now I can only try to avoid them!"
The Holy Lord of the Five Lights Clan remained silent, and no one knew what he was thinking.
The three of them walked along the way and soon crossed large areas of hills, forests, and passed various plains and mountains. They walked for an unknown number of thousands of miles. Gradually, various creatures with flapping wings began to appear below.
Looking at these low-level tribesmen below, the Saint Leader of the Five Lights Tribe suddenly asked, "Where do you want to go next, Brother Ye? Do you want to visit our Five Lights Tribe or the Tianpeng Tribe?"
Ye Changsheng smiled upon hearing this and said, "I am more interested in the Tianpeng Clan. Let's go to the Tianpeng Clan first. I will definitely visit the Wuguang Clan if I have the chance in the future!"
The Holy Lord of the Five Lights Clan had long seen through his thoughts, so he was not surprised to hear this. He laughed and said, "Brother Ye controls the Sky Peng Wings, so it is natural for him to be interested in the Sky Peng Clan!"
"In that case, I will be waiting for Brother Ye's arrival in the Five Lights Clan!"
Upon hearing this, Ye Changsheng cupped his hands and said, "Brother Hua, take care!"
The Holy Lord of the Five Lights Tribe nodded, said goodbye to the two of them, flapped the five-colored wings behind him, and soon disappeared.
Ye Changsheng turned his head to look at the Holy Leader of the Tianpeng Clan. Suddenly, a green light flashed behind him, and a pair of Tianpeng wings appeared on his back. These Tianpeng wings looked lifelike and did not look like they were refined at all.
The Holy Leader of the Tianpeng Clan immediately showed an expression of amazement on his face. From his point of view, this pair of wings looked exactly like the real ones.
He couldn't see any flaws at all.
No matter how you look at it, Ye Changsheng now has become a true member of the Tianpeng clan.
The degree of similarity was such that even the Holy Lord of the Tianpeng clan, like him, could not detect anything unusual.
The Holy Leader of the Tianpeng Clan couldn't help but become curious about how Ye Changsheng's wings were refined.
He knew very well that the origin of this pair of wings must have some relationship with the Tianpeng clan, but he didn't know what the relationship was.
However, he wisely did not ask.
After all, Ye Changsheng had met the Mahayana ancestor of the Feiling clan. Since that ancestor did not cause trouble for Ye Changsheng because of the pair of Sky Peng wings, it meant that there was no problem with the origin of the pair of Sky Peng wings.
If that's the case, then there's no need for a small figure like him in the Feiling tribe to pursue this matter.
Therefore, the Holy Lord of the Tianpeng Clan suppressed his surprise and just said with a smile: "Brother Ye, this pair of Tianpeng wings is truly mysterious. Now you look no different from a Tianpeng Clan member!"
"Haha, this pair of Sky Peng wings was made by Ye from the remains of a Sky Peng that he found in the wilderness. I didn't expect that it would be listed on the Chaos Ten Thousand Spirits List!"
"Now I am showing you this pair of wings, Brother Bai. I hope you won't mind!"
When the Holy Lord of the Tianpeng Clan heard this, he immediately shook his head like a rattle and said quickly: "I am not surprised at all. This is just Brother Ye's luck!"
"The remains of this Tianpeng might be the remains of an ancestor of our Tianpeng clan who died while traveling. This kind of thing was very common in the past!" The Saint Leader of the Tianpeng clan said with a sigh.
In the past, when their Tianpeng clan was at its peak, the death of one or two fusion cultivators in the clan would not cause any major waves.
But things are different now. Now the death of a Void Refinement cultivator will attract great attention.
"Ye also thinks that the wreckage might have been left behind by a senior nobleman, so this time I came to the Tianpeng clan specifically to see the situation of the Tianpeng clan!" Ye Changsheng said with a warm smile on his face.
This made the Holy Lord of the Tianpeng Clan feel once again that Fellow Daoist Ye did indeed have some goodwill towards their Tianpeng Clan.
Maybe it’s because of the pair of Sky Peng wings?
But no matter what, this is always a good thing. Ye Changsheng's attitude made this person secretly happy.
The two flew forward all the way and gradually came to the territory of the Tianpeng tribe. Many low-level members of the Tianpeng tribe were active here.
These low-level tribesmen all have bird bodies, exactly the shape of the Peng bird, without any human characteristics at all.
According to the Holy Leader of the Tianpeng Clan, most of the branches of their Tianpeng Clan and the Feiling Clan also have the ability to transform.
This seems to be somewhat similar to the demon clan, but the difference is that the demon clan will transform everything about themselves into human form, while the flying spirit clan will not, they will retain a pair of wings.
This is a rather interesting distinction.
After being in the spiritual world for so long, Ye Changsheng has a general understanding of creatures such as demons, monsters, and ancient beasts.
In fact, in the spiritual world, the so-called monsters and ancient beasts are just a rough division of the human and monster races.
Only for the human race in the spiritual world, they are all various kinds of beasts. Those living within the jurisdiction of the demon race are called demon beasts, and those not under the jurisdiction of the demon race are called ancient beasts.
As for other races, such as the Feiling tribe, they call all beasts demon beasts. In this tribe, there is no distinction between demon beasts and ancient beasts.
It is for this reason that the Feiling Clan calls the combined old monsters in the Earth Abyss Demon Kings, but in fact these Earth Abyss Demon Kings have nothing to do with the Demon Clan.
This is just the name of the Feiling people.
In essence, monsters are ancient beasts, and ancient beasts are monsters. The same tiger, in the eyes of humans and monsters, can be called a monster, but in the eyes of other races, it may be called an ancient beast.
They are all beasts!
There are many races in the spiritual world, and before they were born with intelligence, they were all members of these animals.
They have the same bloodline source. For example, the Jiaolong of the demon clan and the Jiaolong in the Jiaoyuan Grand Canyon are both of the Jiaolong bloodline. The Peng bird and peacock of the demon clan, and the Tianpeng clan and Wuguan clan of the Feiling clan also have the same bloodline source, namely Kunpeng and the five-colored peacock.
The fox lineage of the demon clan, the ancient white fox clan, and a certain Mahayana-level four-eyed fox in the spiritual world, all of their bloodlines come from the true spirit nine-tailed fox.
These different races actually have the same essence.
The reason why they are divided into different races after the birth of spiritual intelligence is simply because they choose different paths of cultivation.
The demon race will directly transform into human form at level eight, and will continue to practice in the form of humans from then on.
As for the dragons, ancient white foxes, etc. in the Jiaoyuan Grand Canyon, they will not change their human forms. They will maintain their original forms to practice, and only consider transforming into human form when they have reached a higher level of cultivation.
As for alien races like the Tianpeng clan, they took another different path of transformation.
Some people of the Tianpeng clan may be able to transform directly during the foundation-building period, which is completely different from the demon clan.
But no matter what path of cultivation these races choose, their ultimate goal is the same.
That is to move closer to the true spirit.
This is also the reason why there are no so many strange racial divisions in the fairyland.
Following the Holy Lord of Tianpeng, Ye Changsheng gradually came to a magnificent mountain range. After entering this place, the number of Tianpeng people he met on the way suddenly increased.
Some of them transformed into giant birds and flew, while others took human form and walked leisurely along the way.
Ye Changsheng noticed that although the size and style of the wings of the Tianpeng people he met on the road were all the same, their colors were slightly different.
Among them, the most numerous are the Tianpeng people with blue and white wings, followed by those with silver wings.
There are also two other types, gold and black, but the number of these Tianpeng people is extremely scarce. Along the way, Ye Changsheng encountered no other people except the Tianpeng Saint who had golden wings beside him.
After flying in the mountains for a day, the two suddenly encountered a patrol team of Tianpeng people.
This group of people flew towards them, consisting of about thirty people. Each of them was wearing white bone armor and holding a silver spear in one hand. Judging from the aura they exuded, their cultivation levels were all at the foundation-building and pill-forming stage.
When the leader of the Tianpeng people saw the Holy Lord Tianpeng, an expression of great respect immediately appeared on his face, and he stepped forward respectfully to pay his respects.
"Greetings to the Holy Lord. Several elders have ordered that the Holy Lord should go to Wanpeng Palace immediately after his return. Hey, this lord is..." After the Tianpeng man hurriedly finished his words, his eyes fell on Ye Changsheng and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
The person in front of me has unfathomable cultivation, but he looks quite unfamiliar, as if I have never seen him before.
