C931 A Shocking Discovery
Lu Feng's intuition told him that the Soul Race would never exist for no reason. Perhaps there was a huge secret hidden behind it.
"I am the patriarch. What are you trying to do, you monster?" Xu Shiyan looked at Lu Feng and said in a deep voice.
Although his body was trembling slightly, as a father, he had to stand up and protect his son. Therefore, no matter how scared he was, he couldn't back down.
"You are the patriarch?"
Lu Feng looked at Xu Shiyan, then nodded and asked, "Patriarch, I have some questions I want to ask you. I don't know if you can answer them for me."
"Questions?"
Hearing this, Xu Shiyan was slightly stunned. In the legends, didn't demons eat humans the moment they came? Why would there be a question that he wanted to ask?
"Sure, but can you let my son leave first? I will be your hostage." Xu Shiyan thought for a while and said.
In fact, with their current situation, they did not have the qualifications to negotiate.
However, Lu Feng had no intention of eating people, so he naturally agreed readily.
"Dad, I'm not leaving. If he wants to eat people, will he let me go?" Xu Ping tightly grabbed his father's arm and refused to let go.
"Ping'er, as the patriarch, it is my duty to save you and the other clansmen. So you should leave as soon as possible. What if you offend this demon? The entire Soul Race will fall into an irrecoverable state." Xu Shiyan said in a deep voice.
After saying that, he pushed Xu Ping away with all his strength, and the few Soul Race Human who were prepared immediately brought Xu Ping into the cave.
"Alright, if you have any questions, just ask them. As long as I know, I will answer them truthfully!" Xu Shiyan looked at Lu Feng and took a deep breath.
At the same time, his eyes seemed to be ready to die.
When Lu Feng saw how fearless Lu Feng was, he really didn't know what to say. But no matter what, he could finally ask a question now.
"Patriarch, right? You're the patriarch? You must know the origin of the Soul Race very well. Why don't you have a physical body? Also, why are you so afraid of the psychic force? Aren't you all Spirit Body?" Lu Feng asked.
"En?"
After listening to Lu Feng's question, it was Xu Shiyan's turn to reveal a surprised expression. The Soul Race had existed for so many years, but this was the first time he had encountered a demon asking such a question.
When Xu Shiyan was young, he had encountered a demon. At that time, that demon had eaten several Soul Race Human, and then it disappeared not long after.
As for Lu Feng, this was the second time Xu Shiyan had seen him in such a long time. Counting the time, it had been almost a hundred years since the last demon had appeared.
According to the legends, a demon would appear every hundred years in the Soul Race. The demon that appeared was very powerful, and the Soul Race Human had no way of resisting it.
However, these demons seemed to have a bottom line. Every time they appeared, they would only eat less than ten Soul Race before disappearing.
However, Xu Shiyan felt that the demon that appeared today was different from the one he had encountered before. The demon didn't even know the origin of the Soul Race.
In fact, even Xu Shiyan himself didn't know the origin of the Soul Race. He only knew that they existed to satisfy those demons.
"Are you unwilling to tell me?"
When Lu Feng saw Xu Shiyan lowering his head and not saying anything, his face darkened slightly.
"The Soul Race doesn't have a physical body. As for why they are afraid of the psychic force you mentioned... We don't know about that, because the demons that appeared before us used the powerful psychic force to intimidate us. They won't allow us to resist at all. After that, they will eat the few people with the most solid bodies among us. " Xu Shiyan replied.
"It seems like my guess is correct. There were indeed other people who came here before, and their purpose in coming here was to devour the people of Soul Race to improve their psychic force." Lu Feng muttered in his heart.
This also showed why these Soul Race Human were so afraid of him, and why they kept saying that they wouldn't eat humans.
"Patriarch, right? Can you let me examine your body? Of course, the process will be painful, but don't worry, I won't kill you." Lu Feng thought for a moment and asked.
Although these were Spirit Body, they gave him a feeling that they were not Spirit Body, so Lu Feng really wanted to find out.
Perhaps after he found out, Lu Feng would be able to follow the clues and find some clues.
"Come on. Anyway, we can't beat you. You can do whatever you want. You don't need to say hello to me at all." As Xu Shiyan spoke, he slowly closed his eyes.
Although Lu Feng only wanted to check his body, he did not believe that. Every demon came to eat people. Without exception, they believed that the demon in front of them was also like that.
As for the previous sacrifice, it was a completely different method. They wanted to use the method of offering to prevent demons from eating people.
But now, it seemed that this method wouldn't work. Demons were still demons in the end.
"It should be very painful. Bear with it a little!"
Although Xu Shiyan was prepared to die, Lu Feng still reminded him. After all, they were very afraid of the psychic force. Lu Feng's inspection was to use the psychic force to scan his entire body.
"Ah!"
When Lu Feng's psychic force entered Xu Shiyan's body, a tragic voice suddenly rang out.
"Dad!"
Xu Ping, who was hiding in the cave, heard this miserable cry and immediately cried out in grief.
However, in the face of such a situation, Xu Ping knew that there was nothing he could do.
"Why? Why? Why do the people of Soul Race have to be at our mercy? Why do they have to do this to us?" Xu Ping threw his head back and roared.
However, no matter how angry he was, no matter how much he roared, he still couldn't calm the miserable voices outside.
A few minutes later, as the screams gradually faded, Xu Ping, who was hiding in the cave, suddenly fell to the ground, his eyes lifeless.
"Xu Ping, your dad isn't dead. It seems like that monster has given up." While Xu Ping was grieving, a man hurriedly ran over and said.
"What? My dad isn't dead? He wasn't eaten by that demon." Xu Ping, who was originally in grief, was delighted. Immediately, he ran to the entrance of the cave and looked outside.
Although his father's body was very dim at the moment, his life wasn't in danger. As for the monster's words, he was still standing quietly in front of his father.
"Father!"
Seeing that the demon hadn't left, Xu Ping clenched his fist tightly and said while gnashing his teeth in anger.
If he had the ability, he would rush out to save his father.
But the reality was cruel. If he rushed out now, he would undoubtedly lose his life.
"Priest, these people from the Soul Race don't have a Life Soul, a Life Soul." Lu Feng looked at Xu Shiyan, whose body was a little scattered, and was shocked.
Souls included three souls and seven spirits, and only with complete three souls and seven spirits could one be considered a Spirit Body.
But these Soul Race actually didn't have any life souls. No wonder Lu Feng and the others felt that they didn't seem like Spirit Body.
It could be said that without life souls, these Soul Race weren't considered living beings at all. Therefore, using them as food wasn't considered a heaven defying act.
Of course, even though this was the case, everyone's Spirit Body had three complete souls and seven soul. And these Soul Race didn't have any living souls. It was obvious that something had happened to them.
Also, where did their soul souls go?
"Patriarch, is everyone in the Soul Race in the same situation as you? None of them have any life spirits?" Lu Feng asked.2
"Soul of life? We don't know what the soul of life is. We have been like this since we were born. " Xu Shiyan asked curiously.
At the same time, Xu Shiyan saw that the demon in front of him didn't seem to be interested in him, nor did it have any intention of eating him. He was also puzzled.
The demon he had seen before was very ferocious, and it would search for powerful Soul Race Human to eat him the moment it appeared.
But now, not only did he not look for the Soul Race, he even asked a lot of strange questions.
"You haven't had one since you were young?"
Lu Feng muttered. Then, with a thought, he spread out his right hand and the Heart of Life slowly appeared in his hand.
"This is..."
When Xu Shiyan saw the Heart of Life in Lu Feng's hand, his face revealed a surprised expression. Under the illumination of the Heart of Life, his originally scattered body quickly solidified.
"My body."
Feeling the changes in his body, the surprise on Xu Shiyan's face became even greater.
Lu Feng was also very surprised by Xu Shiyan's changes. Before this, he only wanted to give it a try and take out the Heart of Life, but he never thought that the Soul Race Human would be so eager to obtain the power of life.
"Lu Feng, it seems like they are not born without a soul of life. They must have been robbed by someone!" Mu Xiao's voice was heard.
Although Mu Xiao was not a Soul Symbol Master, he could feel that Xu Shiyan yearned for the power of life, and the absorption of the power of life allowed his body to quickly solidify.
If they were born without a soul of life, then they definitely wouldn't be able to enjoy the power of life so greedily.
"It was forcefully taken away."
Lu Feng's eyes darkened when he heard these words. This method was too cruel to take out a life spirit from a good soul.
"If that's the case, doesn't that mean that these people from the Soul Race should be the real Spirit Body?" Lu Feng guessed.
Thinking of this, Lu Feng suddenly realized the existence of the terrifying whirlpool. Perhaps its existence was to collect souls.
If all these guesses were true, then it was obvious that someone had deliberately arranged the terrifying vortex.
Lu Feng had personally experienced the scariness of Dreadful Vortex. He was afraid that even Talisman Sovereign Stage Expert might not be able to create such a big commotion.
"Could it be..."
A few words appeared in Lu Feng's mind. If that was the case, then everything made sense.
"Could it be that it was created by some force in the Heaven Realm? But if they created the Soul Race in the lower realm... What benefits will it bring them? And how did they get to this place?" Lu Feng kept thinking about the problems in his mind.
