The Great Dream God
Chapter 44 Picture Scroll
This amazingly white skin, like a finely carved ivory work of art, has not the slightest sign of darkening even under the merciless scorching sun.
It reflects the sunlight and exudes a pure and flawless luster, as if it is the permanent shelter of the moonlight, resisting all erosion and wear and tear in the world.
Not only that, the vitality of this race is extraordinary. Their lifespan is exactly twice that of humans. Time has left slow and elegant traces on them, like a long symphony, each note is full of stories.
In terms of power comparison, they are even more unique. The combat power of the demon masters of the same level is amazing. When facing the human masters of the same level, they can fight one against four with ease.
It was a power that came from deep in the blood, like a strong wind sweeping away fallen leaves, which could easily overturn the opponent's beliefs without making a sound.
This power gap is not only about physical strength, but also about the depth of understanding of the laws and the control over life, which makes the human race feel awe for this mysterious demon clan.
In this magical world, there is an incomparable phenomenon - innate skills. These innate skills are not acquired after birth, but are like the newborn sunshine, born with us, deeply rooted in the soul of every life.
They are gifts from nature and marks of fate, which are amazing.
Those who possess innate skills seem to be endowed with magical powers. They can master these abilities with ease without having to go through the arduous learning process of humans.
For example, some people are born with the ability to understand and control the trajectory of the wind. The wildness of the storm flashes in their eyes, and they can guide the direction of the wind with a slight wave of their fingers. Some people have healing powers. Their existence itself is a warm comfort. Just a smile can make the pain disappear.
These talents and skills, like bright stars, light up their life paths and allow them to shine uniquely in their respective fields.
However, this does not mean that their lives are without challenges. On the contrary, how to control this talent and how to find a balance between talent and responsibility are the issues they need to face.
The life of the demons is full of mystery and heaviness. The continuation of their race is not a gift from nature, but relies on a nearly sacred ritual. This price is undoubtedly huge for the demons. The vast majority of them are unable to reproduce through traditional methods, which has become a deep scar in their hearts.
The territory of the demon clan is composed of six grand towns, each of which is a unique life node. In these six grand towns, there are towering towers, like pillars between heaven and earth, reaching into the sky. These towers are honored by the demon clan as "Temple of the Mother Goddess", and each one contains endless awe and piety.
According to legend, the Mother Goddess is not the goddess image that people imagine, but a strange creature - a bug. This bug has incredible power and can give lifeless demons a new life, allowing them to continue the flame of their race in the darkness. They are worshipped, prayed, and expected in the tower, symbolizing the miracle and hope of life. Despite the high price, the demons still firmly believe in it, because this is their way of survival and their persistence and expectation for the future.
This strange creature is called the gestating worm, and its unique shape is breathtaking.
A full 80% of its body is actually a huge embryonic sac, like a cradle of life, full of mystery and wonder.
This embryonic area is like a miniature universe, nurturing the new life of the demon race. Every inch of skin and every texture tells the miracle of life.
For the demons, this gestating worm is like their womb and the source of their life.
Most members of the demon clan grow and mature in the embryonic sac of this insect, then break out of the shell and come into the world.
Their birth process is like a grand ceremony, full of primitive and powerful vitality. In contrast, birth directly from the mother's body is extremely rare, as if it is an exception to life and is even more precious.
This peculiar way of reproduction is not only unique to the demons, but also a part of their culture, deeply imprinted in their history and traditions.
The life of every demon carries traces of the insect body. Their story begins from the cradle of life until they unfold their own chapter in the vast world.
In that world divided by mysterious forces, the union between demons is considered taboo because it will give birth to a fragile existence.
Their children, half-blood children cursed by fate, every cry of them foreshadows an impending tragedy.
There is an 80% probability that these children will be killed by the ruthless darkness before they learn to walk independently and recognize the world for the first time, just like a meteor across the night sky, short but brilliant.
Those who are a little older face the more cruel 95% fate curse.
As they begin to explore the world ignorantly and dream of the infinite possibilities of the future, the threshold of seven years old becomes an insurmountable gap.
Many innocent smiles wither at the end of the seventh spring and autumn, leaving behind only endless grief for loved ones and fear of an unknown fate.
However, even so, there is still that tiny 1% who struggle to cross the 30-year-old dividing line.
They are like candles swaying in a storm, and every heartbeat is a tenacious struggle for life.
Hidden in the 99% despair lies that 1% of hope. They use the tenacity of life to write their own legends and challenge the seemingly irresistible destiny.
Throughout the long history of the demon race, there is a strange phenomenon that is amazing. Newborn babies are born from their mothers, survive the childhood of the law of the jungle, and are lucky enough to reach the age of sixty. If you count them on your fingers, I'm afraid it's difficult to get even ten. This rare survival rate, like stars shining in the dark night sky, is both mysterious and sad.
Such a life journey seems to be a transaction at the cost of life. Their existence seems to be a painting carefully woven by fate. Every extra day they live is the ultimate praise for life. Such longevity is certainly enviable, but it is accompanied by endless challenges and dangers, which makes this envy even heavier in the heart. Life is short and brilliant, like a shooting star on a summer night. Although it is short, it leaves a deep impression in people's hearts.
Facing such a history of the demons, we can't help but wonder, what gave them such a fate? Was it the curse of power, or the gift of life?
