If Zhang Yan hadn't been curious about what other changes the four foxes would have after they became monsters besides flattering them this time, so he followed and observed, he didn't know how long he would have waited to find out how they were eating wild food.

After all, demons also need to be naturalized, and they cannot be allowed to act recklessly.Otherwise, the harm of a grown-up demon is no less than that of a ghost, and the longer it takes, the more harmful it will be.

Followed the four foxes around.For the time being, they still have considerable vigilance and fear of the human race, and will not enter the village when there are many people or during the day, nor will they run near the big city.Just wandering around in some small villages around the cliff mountain.

And they are far from killing people and taking souls.What they did was just some newly-dead souls, or some wandering wild ghosts.

However, there are not many people in the village, and it is not often that we can meet someone who happens to be dead and has a living soul to share food with them.So you have to go around first to find out if there are people who are about to die, sick or old people who are dying in the village.Then I come and go from time to time, and I'm just sitting on the sidelines.

A village that doesn't even have a name, because it is not far from the cliff mountain, it is called "near cliff village" or "yabian village".

There was a hunter in the village who was bitten by a wild boar when he went hunting in the mountains some time ago. Although he managed to escape at the time, the wound was already poisoned, and he collapsed when he returned to the village.The four foxes had been staring at this person for a long time, and they waited for him to die quickly so that they would have a chance to share the living soul after death.

Zhang Yan didn't know what it was like for a fox demon to eat a living soul.Is it the same as eating flesh and blood?Or is it the same as when smoking tobacco leaves?

Anyway, it must be very exciting, otherwise these four guys would never be so active, those four pairs of eyes are full of longing.

Zhang Yan followed, and the four fox demons were destined to be busy for nothing today.

However, while Zhang Yan was holding the four fox demons in place so that they could not pounce on the newborn living soul, Zhang Yan himself was stunned. Through his own perception, he found that the living soul seemed to be different. in the past.

"what?"

Amidst the doubts, what surprised Zhang Yan the most was that this living soul was much stronger than the souls of living people under his influence. The most important thing was that there was a strange soul fluctuation in this living soul that Zhang Yan had never noticed before.These were not discovered when the other party was alive, separated by a physical body.

But after feeling Zhang Yan carefully, he found that he was still somewhat familiar with the strange soul fluctuation in this living soul.Must have seen it somewhere.

After a while, Zhang Yan suddenly remembered, not only had he seen this strange soul fluctuation, but he hadn't seen it too much!

Elf family!It is the unique fluctuation of the energy body of the Elf clan.

It's just that compared with the elves, the soul fluctuations on the living soul in front of me are more peaceful, and far less abrupt, as if there are a few extra hairs on its body.If it weren't for a monk like Zhang Yan who has a complete and detailed understanding of the soul, others would really not be able to discover it.He even believed that even if Xu Fengyang and Baronka came, they would not notice anything.

But Zhang Yan was different, he could feel the changes in Shenghun.

Whether it was just coming down from the Yubei Mountain Fortress, or the previous battlefield with Qi Yeguo Xiaojiao Mountain, Zhang Yan has seen countless dead people, as well as countless living souls.He even knows his own soul well.

But when did the living soul become like this?It shouldn't be too long, it's just the new changes that came from the world where the Desolate Sky Territory devoured the Elf Clan recently!

Of course, this is just a living soul, and it will return to heaven and earth soon, and Zhang Yan can't say with absolute certainty that his guess is right.He also needs more living souls to refer to.

But when this living soul returned to heaven and earth, Zhang Yan discovered a new change, that is, the "strength" of heaven and earth to absorb the living soul seems to have increased a lot, almost doubled before!The most direct impact of this is that if a living soul wants to break free from the shackles of heaven and earth and become a ghost, it needs twice as much hostility and evil spirit as before, which means that it is also twice as difficult to become a ghost.

In this way, the number of ghosts in the world will naturally decrease a lot.But relatively, the strength of a single newborn ghost will be much stronger.

"It's really different this time! Maybe this is really just the beginning!" Zhang Yan thought in his heart.He also understands that this time because the world devoured by Huangtianyu is very different from the past, and the original power of the world and various rules and principles obtained are also very different from the past. His previous guesses have already appeared.

The world is about to be different!

Turning his head, Zhang Yan saw the four fox demons who were fixed on the roof motionless by words and could only blink their eyes in horror. Zhang Yan smiled, rolled up the four fox demons with a wave of his hand, and returned to the cliff mountain in a blink of an eye.

"Remember, if you want to continue to enjoy the blessings of my mountain gate under the Dragon and Tiger Mountain Gate of Duanya Mountain, then you must abide by the bottom line. The bottom line is that you can't feed on human souls. Do you understand?"

The four fox demons are already very smart, and Zhang Yan's words are not complicated, so they can understand them naturally.So nodding frequently.

"It's good to understand. If there is another time, you will have to die."

This head must not be opened. If he is disobedient, Zhang Yan doesn't mind completely erasing these little monsters that he himself enlightened in advance.With Cliff Mountain, it wouldn't be difficult to re-guid.

The four foxes were scared to death.Not only did they understand it, but they also knew that the one in front of them was the Lord of the Cliff Mountain, and all their abilities and shelter depended on him.I don’t dare to go hunting for wild food in the future.

Chapter 475 Progression

The four fox demons were released back into the cliff mountain.It took a long time for the three of them, which hadn't condensed any demonic power, to recover from the trembling.And that "little smart" knelt down on the ground and kowtowed more than a dozen heads towards the halfway up the cliff mountain just like a human being.

They all know that they have violated the ban this time.But fortunately he was forgiven, otherwise his life would be lost.

Although they can't speak to others, they all have an idea in their hearts: it's better not to go out in the future.

Zhang Yan didn't know, just this accident, the demon cultivator who was born in the cliff mountain was very nervous about the evil cultivator who devoured souls, and would kill anyone who saw it.It is always an honor to invite credit for this.

I ran to three countries in a row, two from the Human Race side, and one from the Monster Race side.It didn't take much time for Zhang Yan to rely on the technique of teleportation, and he returned to Dengyun Temple on the cliff mountain in less than half a month.

Zhang Yan did not go to look for Xu Fengyang or Baronka this trip. These two are probably hiding somewhere to heal their injuries.Moreover, Zhang Yan himself hadn't figured out a definite result about the changes in the world, so he didn't want to make a fuss for the time being.

In fact, after not going there this time, Zhang Yan was an eye-opener after returning.

The world could have evolved so quietly and so uselessly.

Both the human race and the demon race have changed in this evolution.Regardless of region, age, gender, or even not only human races and monster races, Zhang Yan judged that the scope of the impact should be all creatures in the entire Huangtian Territory.

Of course, Zhang Yan himself was not among them.Because now, from his soul to his physical body, he is about to surpass the original limit of this world.Coupled with the ultimate self-mastery, Huang Tianyu didn't seem to have thought of including him in this change at all.

As for Xu Fengyang and Baronka, Zhang Yan tends to be the same as other creatures.

In Zhang Yan's view, these changes have benefited a lot.The most important of these are the strange fluctuations that he discovered at the beginning that were inexplicably extra traces from the living soul that belonged to the part of the energy body of the elves.

After Zhang Yan's careful observation of these fluctuations and some testing, a general result can basically be confirmed.That is, these extra traces of strange fluctuations similar to the part of the energy body of the Elf tribe have changed the perception, identification, and even absorption of energy by the living soul.

In other words, at this time, all the creatures in the Desolate Sky Territory have been subtly enhanced.

"Is this considered the welfare of the world? Or is it the evolution of the life level?"

Zhang Yan asked himself, and the answer he got at the same time was yes.From then on, the ability of the creatures in the wild world to communicate with the energy between the heaven and the earth will have a qualitative leap.

Zhang Yan can even say with certainty that in the future, whether it is the monster race or the human race, or the monster race and the beast, more and more powerful people will emerge.

Especially on the Human Race side, those who were trapped in the same place because of their talents and could not step into the warrior system may usher in a turning point.Even people who are gifted in Taoism will surely increase.There will inevitably be some changes in the balance of power with the Yaozu.

Even the monster clan is gaining, but because of the martial artist's vitality, the gain is even greater.Therefore, the previous one-sided situation will definitely disappear as time goes by.

Once the power pattern of the living beings changes, it is hard to say whether there will be an idea of ​​"competition" in the end.The outbreak of wars and chaotic wars may also be a follow-up possibility.

Because of the protective jade token, Zhang Yan didn't need to move to his three apprentices to sense their real-time situation through the jade token, including observing the changes in their souls without leaving any traces.

Different from Zhang Yan, although the three of Wang Nian also practice Taoism, their cultivation base is still shallow, and their bodies and souls have not yet reached the point of Heyang.In this case, Huang Tianyu also has room for manipulation, so the three of them were not excluded from the scope of the evolution of the world's creatures.

Because the original talents of the three apprentices are different, Liu Rui is the highest, Wang Nian is the lowest, and Yang Rui is in the middle.But now this gap is further widened by the evolution of Huang Tianyu, Liu Rui has the greatest buff effect, and Wang Nian has the least benefit among the three.

Does Huang Tianyu also like the routine of the strong getting stronger?Zhang Yan couldn't help thinking.

These are just the rough situation in Yangjian, and although Zhang Yan has a relatively firm guess in his heart, he dare not make a judgment on it.Because the devouring of the Huangtian Territory is still going on, the world fragments in the God Realm are still being chewed up and eaten every moment.It also means that the world of the demon clan has not yet reached the point where it has been completely wiped out.No one knows if the Desolate Sky Territory will evolve other buffs to the creatures in it as the devouring continues.

As for the ghost domain in the space, the prototype of the underworld in Zhang Yan's eyes was not abandoned by Huang Tianyu from this evolutionary gain as Zhang Yan thought at first.Instead, they received the same treatment as the living beings in the world.

Zhang Yan thought about this for a long time, and finally he felt that Huang Tianyu could not directly distinguish living souls from ghosts in evolution, because living souls and ghosts have transformation paths, and the distinction is prone to conflicts. Happening.So they just evolved together?After all, compared to the number of living souls, the number of ghosts is too small.

But while the evolutionary gain is carried out equally.But this kind of gain is very different for living people and ghosts!

The real benefit for living people is the lowering of the threshold in terms of cultivation power, but not everyone can really feel this gain.

For example, the old man Wu who sells sesame seed cakes at the Lidong Market in Langyuan City, the evolution gain of the world this time does not feel at all to him.

But this evolutionary gain is different in the ghost domain.They only have a soul body, without the cover of a physical body.If you want to talk about the understanding of souls in Huangtianyu, Zhang Yan must count those ghosts.Moreover, they are accustomed to the word "swallowing", and even this is the only way to gain strength in the ghost domain, and it has been practiced until now.

Now that the sensory and recognition of energy like that of the Elf Clan is added, the ghosts will naturally return to the routine of "swallowing" like the Elf Clan.

It's just that after all, it has undergone the evolution of Huang Tianyu instead of directly imitating it mechanically, so it will not appear on the body of the ghost, which can directly devour energy like the monsters.

But it can reduce the consumption of ghosts when devouring the energy of their souls and actually transforming them into their own soul bodies by a full [-]%!

It is equivalent to a [-]% increase in the efficiency of devouring ghosts to increase their strength out of thin air!

This is not good news for the "seed" that Zhang Yan planted in Huangquan.This means that there will be fewer and fewer "hustlers" in those ghost domains.The gain of strength becomes simple and crude.But as a ghost cultivator, it seems a bit unattractive.

But for the time being, Zhang Yan is not ready to do anything.After all, the ghost domain became stronger, but the source of the ghosts was tightened by Huang Tianyu.How the situation in Huangquan will develop after the two sides offset each other will have to be seen again.

Chapter 476

If you want to find the most special one among all the countries of the human race, it must be the Hong Ming country.

Hong Mingguo is very small, even among the lower kingdoms it belongs to the smallest level.And the geographical location is also very special, it happens to be stuck in the protruding part with one upper country at the back and three lower countries in front.

This geographical location and the size of the country doomed Hong Mingguo to have no basis for hegemony, and would maintain its relative independence with a special status of regional balance, as well as the possibility of having both sides.

For example, Hong Mingguo disbanded almost all of his troops, or they never formed a real army at all, only the yamen servants from various places were used to maintain basic law and order.

This is one of the special features of Hong Minguo.It is to completely remove the claws and claws, make yourself look completely harmless, and then use both sides to do business by taking advantage of your special geographical location and the mutual tension between neighboring countries.But at the same time, it will not be very greedy, and it will take care of all aspects, and the position of the middleman to make the difference is firmly grasped.

So don't look at Hong Mingguo's territory is not big and there are no resources to produce, but the common people inside are full of food and clothing, and there is little famine.Beggars are hardly seen on the streets.

The second special feature of Hong Mingguo is that there is no curfew in the whole region, which is the only one in the human country.

And there is no curfew, which gives an industry great freedom to play: sensuality.

There is a lot of time to spend at night, and there are a lot of wealthy merchants in Hong Ming, which is prosperous in business and trade.These people are not short of money, they are short of fun.

So no matter which big city you go to in Hong Mingguo, you can find a large number of flower houses, restaurants, and theaters.

These sensual businesses are extremely profitable industries, and Hong Mingguo is not soft on them, and all those that should be heavily taxed are heavily taxed, claiming to be able to support more than [-]% of the finances.You can see its earning power.

There are too many flower houses, and the girls, singers, and musicians in them are naturally in great demand. Hong Minguo alone cannot support so many high-end sensual scenes.Therefore, it is necessary for the tooth bank to connect and collude with traveling businessmen from various countries to attract high-level talents to Hong Mingguo.For this reason, Hong Mingguo even has a special yamen responsible for these things.

Over time, Hong Mingguo's name will spread to all human countries along with these sensual stories and young people's yearning, and there is even a saying that "the night is beautiful in Hong Ming".It is evident in the exaggeration.

Young people who like excitement, novelty, and inexplicable curiosity and longing for the legendary "Splendid Night" will always regard Hong Mingguo as a place they should see.What's more, there is a prosperous business there, and if you want to start a career, you can indeed go there to find opportunities.

For example, Wang Nian, who has been traveling in human countries for nearly two years, is a person who likes to be lively and is interested in all kinds of fireworks in the world.And the teenage age is the time when I am most interested in sensuality.But in many places in Huangtianyu, Wang Nian is almost at the age of getting married.

It's different from Liu Rui's troubled mind.Wang Nian's life has been going smoothly up to now.Even compared to Yang Rui, who is the prince, he is much lighter.

Although Wang Nian lost his mother when he was young, his father was not mean to him when he supported the family.Two older brothers and one older sister have never slacked off taking care of the house.Although Wang Nian lacked maternal love, he was full of family affection, and he was carefree in his childhood.

Later, when he met Zhang Yan, he rose from the ground and climbed [-] miles. Since then, he has embarked on a path of cultivation that is different from ordinary people.

This kind of encounter filled Wang Nian's heart with goodwill and love for life and the world.This is also one aspect that Zhang Yan likes most about Wang Nian.Because Zhang Yan felt that Wang Nian's "Tao" was the closest to his.

Rolling in the world of mortals, Wang Nian began to roll into it at a young age, and then drifted with it with great joy.

Wang Nian went to Huayue Kingdom first, and saw the vast Yueshui where the opposite bank was invisible, took a special shaped and extremely fast water beast boat, and saw the prosperity of the "Shang Kingdom".

Then Wang Nian went all the way east, traveling from country to country.It's been almost two years in a flash.The dangers he experienced were not much less than Liu Rui's, but it still didn't affect his mood.

bad guy?Just kill it.Didn't Master say that?Eliminating evil is promoting good, and there will be no psychological burden at all.Moreover, Wang Nian traveled in the most ordinary car and horse dealership all the way, even if he encountered danger, he would not be overwhelmed, and he had no contact with those powerful warriors.

When he was in Huayue Kingdom, Wang Nian had seen the bustling night market in one of the cities, which was dozens of times more prosperous than Langyuan City.It was also the first time that a top flower house can be so glamorous.Compared with those flower buildings in Langyuan City, they seem to be two completely different places.

But Wang Nian didn't go in at first, but hid his curiosity to learn secretly.With the experience and knowledge along the way, Wang Nian finally traveled all the way to Hong Mingguo excitedly, and decided in his heart that he must find the best flower house to spend the night this time, so as to end his boyhood.

I still remember hearing a wandering warrior on the road say that the difference between a boy and a man lies in the bed and the bed.Wang Nian didn't believe it, so he wanted to confirm it.For this reason, he felt that his determination was particularly important, and he was even nervous and excited all the way.

If Yang Rui walks in the crowd, the inherent nobility will make people understand that this child has an unusual background.

And Liu Rui walking in the crowd, her agility and cuteness will make people feel that she is not a child from an ordinary family.

Only Wang Nian, no matter how the living environment changes, he sticks to his own character, and he can't keep upright in his whole body, giving people a cunning and sly impression.

And Wang Nian was not idle along the way.He is proficient in alchemy skills and has not neglected to practice, and even the alchemy path is getting wider and wider.He is willing to try many elixirs that Master is not interested in. He will practice along the way, and will find suitable opportunities to produce some elixirs, mainly for healing and curing diseases.

It is also for this reason that Wang Nian will not stay in one place for long.I also like to use pseudonyms.Even his expenses along the way not only did not use the money ticket given by the master, but also made a lot of money.

Wang Nian completely depends on the situation and mood for Dan.Sometimes you raise your hand and give it away for nothing, and sometimes you want the other party's entire wealth with just one mouth.

The word "casualness" became more and more prominent in Wang Nian.

It is precisely because he can make money and can always leave before everyone reacts, Wang Nian also has no restraint on spending.Along the way, it gives people the influence of an idle dude.

"Mr. Bai, the frontier is the territory of Hongming Kingdom. After passing the pass, continue along the official road to the north and walk for half a month to reach Xiangyu City."

Chapter 477

Before the Wang family followed Zhang Shun all the way to make a fortune, Wang Shi told the three sons many times that he would complete his task of being a father if he helped the three sons find a wife in the future.

So in Wang Nian's heart, "wife" and "woman" have always existed with a "high goal".

After seeing more of the world, "wife" and "woman" were consciously distinguished by Wang Nian.The former is not easy to find, especially now that he has become a monk, he needs to be more careful and careful when looking for a wife, and even needs the master to nod.The latter is much broader.

Moreover.When Yang Rui and Wang Nian were researching how to escape marriage, they had private exchanges, and popularized some "women" knowledge to Wang Nian.In this regard, Yang Rui, who had been educated in the palace since childhood, was naturally much richer than Wang Nian.It opened Wang Nian's mind all at once.

A daughter-in-law can't be found casually, but women don't have so many constraints.What's more, this trend is too common in all countries of the human race.

It's not just men looking for women, women are looking for men too.It's just that the venue is different.

When he arrived in Hong Mingguo, Wang Nian, who has traveled to many countries, was also eye-opened by the sensual atmosphere and openness here.You can't say there are no rules here, but the rules here are quite different from other places.

Sprinkle your money, and at Hong Minguo you can find something that will satisfy you completely.including people.

What's more, it is the most outstanding Xiangyu City in Hongming Kingdom, known as the most pink city of the human race.

There is a saying that the most sensual and sensual.This sentence can still be used many times.

At Wang Nian's age, those plump women are definitely not his type, and those who can attract his attention are those young women or girls who are similar to his age and have a slim figure.
