Above the sea, a huge devil ray slowly wandered on the sea surface. Jiu Cheng sat on his back, carefully breathing out the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in order to consolidate his injuries.

It has been a month since the last battle with Yan Liang. The injury I suffered last time was almost gone with the help of my own pills.

But Jiucheng couldn't cheer up any more. Jiucheng asked himself that he had done well enough, but the last time he was still a crushing defeat, and he had to escape like a dog in a family to beg for a life.

Looking at Jiu Cheng's depressed look, Jiu Kun on the side had to comfort Jiu Cheng and said, "Stage success or failure does not mean everything. In history, there are also Emperor Immortals who have lost several times when they were young. As long as they don't give up, there will always be a chance to surpass their opponents."

"But in the entire history of such an imperial immortal, there are only two or three. What Daozi is fighting for is my invincible mentality and an indomitable aura. But these two things, I was smashed to pieces with the human race." Jiu Cheng said depressedly.

"There are few such immortal emperors, but it is enough for you to regain your confidence. After experiencing this failure, are you really willing to continue to sink like this? Are you really willing to give up the battle for luck?" As he said that, Jiukun had already arrived in front of Jiucheng.

"Of course I don't want to, just..." Jiu Cheng raised his head and looked at Jiu Kun. Facing his stern gaze, Jiu Cheng was speechless for a moment and didn't know what to say.

"It's just that? They're all too strong? So you're destined to not even have a chance to catch up?" Jiukun asked sternly.

Jiucheng looked up at Mr. Kun, thinking of denying it, but he didn't know how to refute it.

Looking at Jiu Cheng's unscrupulous look, a burst of nameless anger suddenly ignited in Jiu Kun's heart, and he shouted angrily at Jiu Cheng: "Stand up for me, have you no longer even the courage to refute?"

"The human race is different from each other. The human race has a strong sense of understanding and has a fast speed of practice. As long as the understanding is good enough, the cultivation can be a thousand miles a day. In addition, the growth potential of the human race is too evil, so it is born to be envied by heaven, and its lifespan is only one-tenth of that of other races. But even so, their cultivation speed is the fastest among all races. This is an indisputable fact, and we must admit it."

"What I value in my demon clan is the innate magical powers, bloodlines and physical body, and the speed of cultivation is slower than that of the human race. In the competition among peers, whether it is my demon clan or the dragon clan, compared with the human race, we have suffered some losses in this regard. But we also have our advantages. The inheritance of my demon clan is far longer than that of the human race, and we have a long life span, so over the years, we have already summarized a set of methods to compete with the human race."

"You performed too well in our clan before, and even compared with the Demon Emperor's ancestor, there were many things that were not allowed. So we old guys have never said anything in front of you. We just wanted to cultivate you into a wise and brave, even comparable to the demon ancestor's Mao calf. So we only regard the cleverness you used to play as a manifestation of your extraordinary wisdom."

"But this trip to the human race gave us a slap. This slap is enough to wake us up and let us see clearly that strength is the most important thing. In the face of absolute strength, all conspiracies are jokes."

Hearing this, Jiucheng quickly replied: "I already know! I saw through it in the last battle, but it was useless! In the end, I was defeated miserably."

"What's the use of seeing through you in the battle? Do you have time to correct your shortcomings and system? It's not too late to discover it now. As long as you can see your shortcomings clearly and then try hard to catch up, you will definitely catch up." Jiukun put his hands on Jiucheng's shoulders, looked at Jiucheng's eyes, and tried hard to cheer him up.

"But... but the human race's cultivation speed is already faster than our demon race. Can I really catch up?" Jiu Cheng looked at Mr. Kun with a longing look, as if he was telling Mr. Kun with his eyes: "Please tell me, I can do it. Even if he is lying to me, he must tell me, I can do it."

"Bang!" There was a crisp sound!

Jiucheng covered his face with one hand and looked at Mr. Kun with incredible eyes. Mr. Kun, who has always loved him the most, actually beat him.

Looking at Jiucheng's current appearance, Jiukun also felt pain in his heart. But at this time, he had to wake Jiucheng up.

"Are they already reaching the tribulation stage? Or are they already understanding the laws of immortality? Or are they already competing for enough luck and will become immortal tomorrow?" Jiukun shouted loudly at this unscrupulous junior.

"I tell you, no, no, not. You are still in the Transformation Realm, and it is still early to fight for the final luck. There is still a lot of time. As long as you have time, you still have countless possibilities. But the premise is that you must have enough confidence. Only if you have enough confidence can you be qualified to fight with them in the final battle, otherwise you don't even have this qualification. Now tell me, do you want to attain the supreme immortal throne, do you want to wash away the shame of the Demon Emperor being killed in the ancestral land of my clan? Tell me, tell me now." Jiukun asked Jiucheng at the top of his lungs, while holding Jiucheng's shoulders tightly, so that his fingers had fallen into Jiucheng's flesh.

Nine Chengs like Mr. Kun had never seen him like this, and now he realized that he was like this, which disappointed Mr. Kun. It turned out that his performance just now was even worse than I thought. Yes! If I don’t even have the confidence to surpass them, then what qualifications are there to participate in the battle for luck in the future.

So, Jiucheng's eyes gradually became firmer. Then Jiucheng looked at Mr. Kun and began to slowly tidy up his clothes, then his hair, and finally his face. It was as if Mr. Kun's hands were not inserted into his shoulders.

"Mr. Kun, I disappointed you. It was because I broke my heart for a while and I won't do this again in the future. Then Jiu Cheng closed his hands together, bent down deeply, and bowed to Mr. Kun."

Seeing Jiucheng's gaze, he gradually became firm. Jiukun's hanging heart slowly fell down. I took a pair of bloody hands off Jiucheng's shoulders.

"Okay, that's great. As long as you can get through your own hurdle in your heart, everything will be not too late. Now you have recognized your shortcomings, which is much better than when you fight for luck in the future. After these three battles with the human race, have you realized what your shortcomings are?" Jiukun asked again.

"What I have learned is too complicated. Although I have several kinds of magical powers in my life, I have not practiced any of them to the extreme. Moreover, when facing the enemy, I have no ultimate trick to defeat the enemy." Jiu Cheng replied solemnly.

"That's it. Since you know your shortcomings, you will make up for it in the future. Moreover, although the cultivation speed of my demon clan is slower than that of the human race, it is not irreparable." Jiukun answered with satisfaction.

"Oh? Is there a way to make up for it?" Jiu Cheng immediately became energetic. A large part of the reason why he was so desperate before was that he knew that the human race's cultivation speed was much faster than the demon race.

This has nothing to do with talent, but the characteristics of their respective races. The lifespan of the demon race is ten times that of the human race. Correspondingly, the growth rate of the demon race is ten times slower than that of the human race.

Although the longer growth cycle makes the demon clan's body stronger and the spiritual power is stronger, that is for monks of the same realm.

If you look at the same age, the human race will naturally have more dominance.

As for Yan Liang and the other two, they were less than 20 years old and had reached the sea realm. But for many demon races, at the age of 20, it is very likely that the fetal hair has not yet completely faded.

Especially for the royal family like them, the stronger the bloodline, the longer the growth cycle will be.

Take him Jiu Cheng as an example. Although he has not been practicing for too long, only a few decades, he is actually over 3,000 years old.

Because, he has been in the egg alone for three thousand years.

The reason why he was able to practice to the realm of Transformation in just a few decades was all based on the foundation laid by his parents for himself.

Today, Jiu Cheng has exhausted his former foundation, and in the future, he can only grow slowly according to the growth cycle of the demon clan. Perhaps in more than ten or twenty years, he might have just broken through to the Killing Realm, and Yan Liang and others have already reached the Nascent Soul Realm. So before, Jiu Cheng was so desperate.

Now Jiu Cheng heard from Mr. Kun that there was a way to make up for it, so he was so excited.

"Of course there is a way to make up for it. Otherwise, with the speed of the human race's cultivation, what kind of cultivation genius can our demon race and the dragon race compete with the human race?"

Jiukun glanced at Jiucheng and continued to say: "This method of making up for it originally did not exist. However, after the rise of the human race, its cultivation speed was too fast. At that time, the Cangsheng Emperor Immortal and the Ten Thousand Beast Emperor Immortal could still become immortals earlier than our demon clan and the dragon clan. This attracted great attention from the demon clan and the dragon clan. Finally, after the unremitting efforts of the ancestors of the two clans, a way to make up for it was finally found."

"What method?" Jiucheng asked impatiently.

"That is to accelerate your own growth rate in exchange for the speed of cultivation." Jiukun said to Jiuchong.

"Accelerate the growth rate in exchange for the cultivation speed?" Jiu Cheng repeated in confusion.

"Yes, in other words, give up a longer lifespan than the human race in exchange for the same cultivation speed as the human race. Although this method sounds like drinking poison to quench thirst at first, this is the best method that both of us can think of." Jiukun answered solemnly.

"Everything in the world is balanced. Although the human race practices quickly, it can only have one-tenth of our limit life span. Although our demon race has a long life span, it is also limited by life span. As the saying goes, if you have gains and losses, you will not be able to have a longer life span. This is the way of heaven. Before the rise of the human race, we did not need to do this. But since the rise of the human race, we have to do this, because the enemy of the two races will not leave the Taoist son of our race and grow slowly."
