Chapter 378 - Higher Demon (2)

For humans, the arrival of the demons was a nightmare. But was it actually also a nightmare for the demons to have come to the land of the human race?

"Then, if you find something that can supply you dark elements, can you not eat humans?" Shen Yanxiao's mind was spinning at a rapid pace.

In her mind, she didn't believe that there would be absolutely hostile creatures in the world, and that the confrontation between the humans and the demons was only because the demons had no food to feed on in the human's continent.

Although human beings couldn't provide them with a large number of dark elements, the dark side of the humans' hearts could satisfy their need for survival. If they could find something in the human world that could substitute their real food, then demons and human beings might be able to coexist. And Shen Yanxiao just happened to have such a thing in her hands. 

The combination of Demon Spirit plant, Inflammation Grass, and Skeleton Flower could produce powerful dark elements. Previously, Xiu had been planning to capture demons to restore his strength. If she could put these three things together before the game half a year later, successfully win that game, and get a city in the barren land, with a plant composed of these three things, a place where the dark elements were sufficient to supply many demons could be conceived. This could satisfy Xiu's plans and change the treatment that the demons were receiving.

Shen Yanxiao didn't want to use a chain to bind this bunch of demons and just wait for Xiu to finish absorbing their power. If they could achieve mutual benefit and assistance, it would be the perfect outcome. However, Shen Yanxiao didn't know much about the demons, and Xiu also only knew the general situation.

That was why she was in a hurry to have a look at the demons, so they could continue to make plans. Not only did this present demon have high intelligence, he was also not in a hurry to eat her, giving her a good chance to understand the demons. Futu raised his eyebrows. He looked somewhat amused at the little brat for asking such a question. 

"What we demons need are the dark elements from the Demon Race, and as far as I know, it is this dark element that is most feared by the human race. The slightest mistake caused by the demons' dark elements can trigger the existence of a half-human and half-demon. Being able to find a source of dark elements in the human's continent? Wouldn't that be ridiculous?" Shen Yanxiao said, "How can you know if you haven't tried to find one? If one day you were given a chance to choose, would you continue to feed on the human race here which could only satisfy you a little bit, or would you choose the pursuit of the dark elements that could bring you great ascension?" 

The dark elements were important to the demons and Demon Race like how the dou qi and magic were important to human race, and they didn't need to cultivate that much often. By relying on their nature, they could simply absorb enough dark elements to enhance their power. Such an easy way wasn't something that human beings dared to think about. 

"If there is such a chance, do you really think you humans would appeal to any of us demons? Of course we will certainly choose to be able to absorb the dark elements which could enhance our strength. But I know what you mean. You want to say why we demons don't look for things that can replace the dark elements, but insist on being the enemy of your people for thousands of years? You must know that we demons also want to find something that can replace our food, but even the things that have little bit of use had been destroyed by your God's domain. Between Heaven and Earth, where is the room for our choice?"
