The old priest didn't seem to feel Chen Rui's surprise and said slowly: "Now you all know that the devourers are divided into three generations, each of which is different. But in fact, the second generation of devourers can evolve into three generations, and the third generation of devourers can also evolve into the final abyss. Among them, only the three generations of devourers with extraordinary talents can actively evolve."

Hearing this, Chen Rui seemed to have touched some veins and said continuously: "Senior mean that the key to evolution is the spiritual source?"

The old priest's voice was faint and continued, "At that time, the evil king killed the subordinates led by the upper Zhongzhou Divine Pillar were not the three generations of devourers, but the Abyss."

Chen Rui was extremely surprised when he heard this, but more questions followed...

"After the failure of the Evil King, a very small number of abyss people who escaped their lives returned to the caves opened by the Evil King. From then on, they lurked and led the second generation of spirit-eating people left in the caves to live in this vast cave world." The tone of the old priest quietly rose, as if the true secret in his heart was about to slowly reveal it.

"The ancestor of our tribe is also an abyss, and the ancestral land was opened by him. The essay from the Evil King was also put into the ancestral land."

Chen Rui was shocked again, as if he had caught something, and immediately asked: "Is this the reason why the seniors cost so much to enter the ancestral land?"

"Yes, there are two ways to enter the ancestral land. One is to cultivate more than the ancestor before his death, and forcibly break the blood ban set by the ancestor. The second is to use the blood of the devourer as a guide to enter. However, the abyss is different from the second generation of devourers, such as us."

Chen Rui had been surprised before, how could the tribe members lose so much energy when they enter the ancestral land? It turns out that this is the case.

"Yes, although the ancestor is just a small soldier under the command of the Evil King, his cultivation is still out of reach for us. It is impossible for me to break it by force. Only by using blood as a guide. However, due to impure blood, a large amount of essence blood is needed to open the ancestral land."

Chen Rui had already understood the answer, and at this moment, he confirmed the words of the old priest and finally got the answer.

The old priest paused for a while, and then continued, "When the ancestor came back and lived in our tribe, he also brought a spiritual source. This spiritual source is now being placed in the ancestral land. All priests of all generations know that although the second generation of devourers can evolve, relying solely on the spiritual source is not enough, and they also need the assistance of the devourers' secret technique."

"In order to prevent things from changing, the priests of the future generations kept the spiritual source and secret techniques separately."

"After all, once the tribe members evolved into the third generation of devourers, their personalities will change drastically, fierce, vicious, cunning and deep, and enjoy bloodthirsty, so all priests of all generations are extremely careful about this."

Chen Rui nodded thoughtfully and said, "Senior, can you tell the difference between the three generations of spirit-eating people and the abyss?"

The old priest's body trembled slightly, and finally said: "There are differences. No matter the third generation of devourers or the abyss, it is impossible for them to rely on the devouring monks to improve their strength infinitely. Both have bottlenecks, but the bottlenecks of the abyss are far higher than those of the third generation of devourers."

"Secondly, although the abyss people have reached a bottleneck and cannot be promoted by devouring monks, they can breathe and feel the same as monks!"

"Third, the Abyss will not slaughter the same tribe!"

"What I mean by the senior is that the third generation of spirit-eating people are cruel and easy to kill, and even the second generation of spirit-eating people who are members of the tribe will not let go?" Chen Rui couldn't help but take a breath.

I really don’t know how the Evil King created such an evil species.

The old priest sighed and said, "This is also the reason why priests of all dynasties are very secretive about spiritual sources."

Chen Rui deeply agreed that a tribe of a second-generation spirit-eating person suddenly intersected with a third-generation spirit-eating person, which can be said to be a catastrophe.

"So, in the same cave opened by the Evil King, the second-generation devourer and the third-generation devourer will not exist at the same time." The old priest continued.

Chen Rui nodded and said, "I understand."

At this moment, the old priest seemed to remember something and said slowly: "Brother Chen, I was very confused before. Even the Devourer, there are only a few who know the spiritual source, where did you know it."

Chen Rui pondered for a moment, and finally revealed the truth, saying: "One of the items that the people who let us enter this world want us to look for is the spiritual source."

The old priest's body shook, his face turned pale, and he murmured: "Finally... finally arrived. God's will! God's will... You said before that there were 100,000 monks entering this world, is that true?"

The old priest's old face was sometimes frightened and sometimes confused, and his expression changed constantly, and he seemed to be in a daze.

Faced with the change in the expression of the old priest, Chen Rui was at a loss for a moment.

He could only reach out his hand, gently pat the old priest on the shoulder, and said, "I don't know what others think, but I will never snatch the spiritual source."

For Chen Rui, this can help the spirit devourer evolve, and he has no effect on obtaining it.

When the old priest mentioned the role of the spiritual source before, some questions lingered in his heart.

First, what does the Long Family in Tenglong City want to do for Lingyuan?

Second, through various signs, they must have already gained a lot of understanding of the world.

If they just want to obtain spiritual sources, they can open the cave passage on their own and then go to these Spirit Eater tribes to seize it.

Why do you have to find so many monks to wading into muddy waters?

Thinking of this, a chill rose inexplicably around Chen Rui. He had a faint feeling, afraid that there was a huge conspiracy hidden in it.

Chen Rui took a deep breath, then looked at the old priest and suddenly said, "Senior, how many tribes are there in this world like this?"

The old priest pondered for a moment and said, "I am not very clear about the specific one, but I am sure that it is definitely not just us."

Chen Rui nodded and said, "This is the same as I guess. Senior, you should have other purposes for telling the matter of the Spirit Source."

The old priest was silent for a moment and said, "Yes."

Chen Rui was silent.

The old priest said slowly: "The situation is too unoptimistic now. I just hope you can help us through this disaster."

Chen Rui knew that Du Ming was the disaster mentioned by the old priest. If there was the first Zheng Xuan, there must be a second and a third.

Chen Rui's mouth twitched and said, "Senior, this..."

The old priest said in a desolate voice, "As our second generation of spirit-eating people entered adulthood, their strength grew extremely slowly. After generations of transmission, they are gradually declining. Now there is no decent strong man in the tribe. I can take the spiritual source and hand it over to you, just ask you to take action again when our tribe is in danger."

Chen Rui was stunned, but he didn't expect that the old priest was actually using such an abacus.

Chen Rui was silent. In fact, he had already seen that if the old priest entered the ancestral land again, he would probably have reached the point where the oil was exhausted and the lamp was exhausted.

The old priest was silent for a moment and said sincerely again: "For the sake of my knowledge, I would like to ask Brother Chen to save my tribe."

Chen Rui took a deep breath and said slowly: "Okay, I agree. However, if you say it first, it is beyond my ability, I will withdraw my hands."
