Chapter 2825 - 83: Where the Traces of the Kylin Remain, What Need Is There for the Swan’s Prints in Snow? (Part 2)

You feel a profound sense of mystery.

A deep universe!

Unaware of how long has passed, when eternally flowing time begins to confuse, time loses its significance. It could be an instant, or many thousands of years.

In the depths of the universe, a giant stele appeared.

This is a square and rigid stele, with no excess carvings. Its specifics have yet to be seen, but its weightiness and correctness have already registered upon sight.

Jiang Wang immediately recognized it as the stele he had seen earlier on a forest trail. It was exactly like the one describing the political doctrine of Yu Zhen back in the day, inscribed with "Dragon is inherently a demon."

Only this stele has been magnified countless times, creating a unique world shaped as a square stele within the mysterious and distant cosmos.

"Truth stele?" Ken Xihua, who had read quite a few books, exclaimed in shock.

It was only once he voiced out that Pig Dali remembered there was still such an injured demon present on the scene.

She Guyu was deliberately ignored, while Ken Xihua lacked much presence.

Along with Mage Yang Yu, he walked out of the dense forest, from then on it was all Yang Yu’s show.

In Mo Yun City, he too had wreaked havoc but was quietly tending to his injuries. Especially after Zhu Zheng was easily decapitated, he didn’t dare lift his head much.

At this moment, his outburst during the chaotic time-travel is indeed a result of being startled speechless.

"It’s a true saying stele." Lu Qilang corrected, "Where in this world exists eternal truth? There is only the true saying of the heart at that moment."

The demons seemed to come alive instantly, each revealing their own thoughts, each displaying their own vitality.

The truth stele is, of course, just a rumored saying.

The reason is that every word inscribed on such a stele needs to withstand the test of "truth or falsehood."

Its annual yield is extremely limited, and demon clan strongmen often use this type of stele to record history and inscribe classics.

Chai Asi and Yuan Mengji exchanged glances. As the team encountering such a stele earliest in the Land of Shenxiao, it was only now that they learned the stele has a name and carries such a high tone. Truth? True saying?

"Your words are incorrect, sir!" Yang Yu called out with a solemn expression, "How can you say there is no eternal truth in the world? Please try reading the ’Wisdom of Divine Wisdom Fruit Collection.’"

"Yang Monk, your words are incorrect!" Shujia Lan pursued, "If reading is to be done, read the ’Dafa Standard,’ this scripture is the true scripture of Buddhism!"

Lu Qilang did not want to pay attention to these two monks full of Buddhist scriptures.

In fact, even though the Monster Realm Buddhism is recognized as orthodox cultivation, Ancient Nan Mountain is acknowledged by the Ancient Imperial City as orthodox religion. But a considerable portion of traditional-thinking demons are very resistant to Buddhism.

They not only resist Buddhism, they resist all human race teachings, believing that these things can corrupt demon clan thoughts, subtly changing them.

Among these human teachings, Buddhism, due to its pursuit of faith—and the fact that it developed best within the demon clan—is the most resisted.

Lu Qilang does not quite resist, yet somewhat feels... those who study it might have a problem with their minds.

What is there to read in ’Wisdom of Divine Wisdom Fruit Collection’ and ’Dafa Standard,’ dry and dull, consuming heart power pointlessly. Better to read my ’Fragrant Collection of Hundred Flowers!’

As words are spoken, time flies by, bringing the true saying stele near.

The demons thus saw that the center of the stele was also inscribed with words, five in total, each stroke clear: Beyond Earth, There Are No Humans!

Boom boom boom!

Within hearts, as if heavens have opened!

This shocking truth of history!

Every demon present was stunned, feelings indescribable.

Jiang Wang from the Mirror World was even more so.

"Dragon is inherently a demon" is historical reality as well as Yu Zhen’s political doctrine at the time.

"Beyond Earth, There Are No Humans," likewise one of Yu Zhen’s political doctrines, does it mean... it’s also historical reality?

Jiang Wang easily accepted the previous piece of history, yet found it hard to accept and recognize the so-called "true sayings" inscribed on this subsequent true saying stele.

If indeed there originally were no humans in this world, then from where did the human race arise?

If there are no humans on earth, then who am I?

What now dominates the current world?

Regardless of whether the demons were astonished, lamenting, or pondering something else.

Time does not cede to their will.

This true saying stele thus fell before the demons, into the vast universe.

And with the Divine Mountain’s traverse, another true saying stele rose gently, like a square stele flying landward, displayed before the demons. It also bore writing, containing inherent meaning, saying: The Demon Clan Acts Independently!

Beyond Earth, There Are No Humans, The Demon Clan Acts Independently.

These ten Taoist words wholly describe a piece of history, bringing the observer deep into the distant realms of time.

It is widely known that before the present world were the Ancient Times, Middle Ancient Era, Ancient Era, and Ancient Times.

The Ancient Times is the longest era.

Its beginning cannot be traced.

Before this, there are only vague legends.

This is the era when the demon clan ruled the heavens and earth.

This journey through time is certainly insufficient to take the demons to such an ancient era,

but these two true saying steles before them tell exactly the piece of history from the Ancient Times.

In this world, there initially were no humans.

Demons are favorites of the heavens and earth, beasts are born and nurtured by the heavens and earth.

Nature nurtures hundreds of distinct races, also has spirits of the Mountain and Sea, proclaiming themselves deities. There are foreign beasts naturally possessing divine skills, desolate beasts with inexhaustible power...

And in this era of vigorous competition among all species, the demon clan’s natural Dao veins manifest externally, living as long as deities, strong from birth, ruling across the heavens.

"Human," initially was just a common form among demons, represented by two strokes, indicating the demon clan standing in the heavens and earth.
