Tomb Robber: Oops, I think I met a tomb robber.

???

Now, even the three Zhang Qilings had question marks in their minds, but Kashumer remained calm from beginning to end, without showing any surprise at all towards the news. It seemed that he knew why (after all, he was a disciple taught by Him, and he knew all the knowledge he should know).

Did they hear wrong?

Yunyun knew their shock without even looking up, and without waiting for anyone to ask, it relayed the explanation given by the main system.

The main system said that if all pollution were eliminated, while it would initially ensure peace for everyone in the world, it would also deprive them of pressure and competitiveness. Over time, this would cause the world's progress to stagnate, hindering the development of living beings. However, if some pollution remained, both living beings and immortals would have a sense of crisis and maintain constant vigilance. This would both motivate them to continue their cultivation and prepare them for future encounters with external enemies. Well, just like an ecosystem, every living thing needs natural enemies, otherwise it would be prone to extinction.

This explanation was so reasonable that it seemed even ordinary, so reasonable that everyone fell silent after hearing it, and even felt a hint of absurdity.

In the eyes of the main system and the way of heaven, whether it is a human, an animal, or a god, they are all animals in the ecosystem, right?

[When mortals are contaminated, they become unconscious freaks, which can only be called half-demons. However, when cultivators are contaminated, it's different. They still have consciousness and wisdom, which can be called demons. Not only are they considered living beings, they can even cultivate and reproduce on their own (after all, the physical functions of polluted beings are still there, and over time, they will reproduce). This is the origin of the demon race, and they are already considered one of the races in this world... Well, this is what the main system told me.]

While everyone was still silent, Yunyun continued to relay the main system's words, and the content of this new message made everyone feel even more overwhelmed.

So this is how the demons came into being in those novels about cultivating immortals.

"Well, even if we can't completely eliminate it, we have to suppress the generation of this pollution before the immortals and gods revive. At the very least, we can't let it continue to kill ordinary people. They are simply powerless to resist."

Zhang Haike sighed helplessly, and Qiuyue nodded repeatedly. She said, "Is there any way for ordinary people to resist this pollution? Or maybe let the pollution continue to dormant for a few hundred years, and then release it after the immortals and gods revive? Or is there any way to awaken the immortals and gods in advance, before the people of this world pass the tribulation and become immortals?"

Qiuyue's proposal was comprehensive. After listening to it, everyone nodded in agreement again, while Yunyun raised her little hand, scratched her face, and began to think.

Asking ordinary people to protect themselves from pollution might be difficult because there are so many people involved, and it's impossible to protect everyone. Not to mention the resources it would consume, not everyone might be willing to comply. Just like how some people still refuse to get vaccinated, this approach is unfeasible.

[Letting the pollution lie dormant for a few hundred years is somewhat feasible, but the problem is that the pollution is all in the remaining forbidden areas, and there are simply too many of them. Furthermore, each area appears at different times, and we can't monitor them constantly, let alone seal off every one. This would be completely detrimental to the future development of cultivation.]

[The third method is to awaken the immortals in advance. This is doable, but it's very troublesome.]

As Yunyun spoke, she turned around and looked at Kashumer, which made him slightly stunned.

Is there anything else he does here?

The others also subconsciously followed Yunyun's gaze and looked at Kashumer, but for a moment they couldn't figure out what his relationship was with him.

If you want to wake the immortals early, you need some kind of stimulation. Transcending the Tribulation to Become an Immortal can awaken the immortals because the level of heavenly thunder during the tribulation will stimulate the forbidden area to awaken, and at the same time awaken them. If you don't choose this path, a powerful foreign invasion will also awaken them. This is like someone outside your house chopping at your door with a knife; even the deepest sleeper will be awakened.

Yunyun's words were so clear that they couldn't be clearer. Everyone understood what it meant in an instant and also understood why it looked at Kashumer.

The only person who can do this is Kashumer.

Kashimer paused for a moment and said, "So you want my real body to come over?"

His current human body is at most at the level of Taiyi Jinxian. If he wants to wake up all the gods at once, it is really not enough.

[Yes, your true form must be used. Otherwise, the threat won't be strong enough and the gods won't wake up.]

Yunyun shook his body to confirm his words, but Kashimer didn't agree immediately after hearing it. He said, "If you want my main body, that might be a little difficult. It's the world promotion period over there, and my main body has to watch over there, so I can't come over for the time being. But if we just need someone to deter others from outside, we can let Belair come. I think he would like this mission very much."

Yunyun was originally dispirited when she heard Kashumer say that he couldn't come for the time being, but when she heard the name Bellaire, her eyes suddenly lit up. The others also looked enlightened, but Qiuyue was the only one with question marks on her head.

"Belair? Who is this?"

Hearing Qiuyue's question, everyone paused. Yunyun blinked her small eyes and looked at Qiuyue, then realized something belatedly.

[Oh! It seems like my sister doesn’t know yet!]

"what? What?"

Qiuyue tilted her head slightly, and before Yunyun could respond, Kashumer patted her head and chuckled, "It's Belle, baby knows her."

Qiuyue was naturally familiar with the name, but she was still a little confused. "It's Belle, but why did you change your name? Isn't Belle a nice name? Now it sounds like a boy's name."

"Because I am a man, sister."

Before Kashumer could respond, a clear and pleasant voice of an unfamiliar young man suddenly rang out. Before Qiuyue and the others could react, a pink figure directly pushed away the group of people surrounding Qiuyue. Qiuyue felt a sudden touch of pink in front of her eyes. Before she could see the person clearly, a pair of hot big hands held her face, followed by several powerful kisses and sucks on her face.

"Long time no see, sister, I miss you, let me kiss you, mumumu——"

???

Qiuyue's eyes widened in an instant, and the expressions of the others also changed suddenly. A Kun, who was a step slow to react, hurriedly reached out to pull the arms of the intruder apart, but he didn't move at all.

"Belair, stop messing around and let go!"

Just because Kun couldn't push him away didn't mean his father had no other options. Kashimer frowned slightly and reached out to rip it open. Belair didn't struggle, letting him pull it open. She couldn't stop smiling, licking her lips as she said, "Sister, you're so sweet. Let me kiss you a little longer next time."

rogue! !

Everyone cursed out the word in their hearts almost at the same time, and Qiuyue, whose face began to turn red after being kissed, felt her ears getting hot - her mint candy completely disappeared.

She opened her eyes wide, looking at the tall and beautiful young man in front of her in shock and disbelief, and felt that her brain was unable to work.

Male?! !

The person in front of her was tall and slender, with long pink hair that didn't make her look effeminate, a beautiful yet handsome face, and bright pink eyes that reflected her figure, revealing a hint of smile and tenderness.

???

Is this the little, pretty, cute, and adorable Bailey who always called her sister?

Qiuyue's head was buzzing, and for a moment she suspected that she was dreaming.

In this river? !

"You, you, why are you a man?"

Qiuyue finally found her voice and said in disbelief. Bellai immediately arched his eyebrows. He squatted in front of Qiuyue, grabbed her hands with both hands and put her on his face, letting her hold his face. He said, "Ah, it has always been my sister, but my father didn't understand back then and mistook me for a girl."

Anyone who comes to you will think you are a girl if you look like that!

No, no, no, she was wrong, she shouldn't stereotype that all girls are like that.

Qiuyue suddenly shook off the thoughts in her mind, feeling a little ashamed and shocked at the same time.

It really is a boy...

But! Even though he's a boy, how come his personality has changed so much?

Wasn't he a very well behaved kid? Why is he like this now?! Do boys change a lot when they grow up?

"Sister, you have no idea how much I miss you! Hundreds of thousands of years, and I haven't been able to see you. It's really too torturous!!"

Belair suddenly lowered his head and kissed Qiuyue's palm, saying something very aggrieved. Qiuyue was confused after hearing this, wondering if he had said the wrong number.

Hundreds of thousands of years? Is that correct?!

She was so easy to understand that everyone present immediately saw Qiuyue's confusion. Kashimer then explained, "The main system specially gave us a time-accelerating item to help us become stronger as quickly as possible. We've both already spent hundreds of thousands of years in our own world."

When these words were spoken, not only Qiuyue was shocked, but also Zhang Qiling, Wu Xie and others present were in disbelief.

???

Huh? It's only been two years, and you're already hundreds of thousands of years old?!

It’s broken, two antiques appeared out of thin air.
