Crow's Paradise

As memories poured into Yao Yan's mind and became the knowledge and experience he possessed, Yao Yan also immediately analyzed the things about the Bloody Thorn Jungle.

Yao Yan has always cared about one thing.

"Spirit"

In all the trial spaces and worlds he has experienced, living things, especially human beings, have "spiritual" existence.

Yao Yan understood the reason——

From ancient times to the present, civilizations in different countries and regions have different understandings of "consciousness" and "spirit".

The so-called myth is actually the world that ancient people understood at that time.

If you look through history and mythology, you will find that at any time, humans have differentiated between themselves and animals in terms of intelligence. In people's imagination, the existence of "spirit" and "soul" will appear.

And one of the most important cultural phenomena in human civilization is death.

In other words, in the funeral culture, we can see various imaginations about death.

"Body" and "Soul"

"body" and "spirit"

"body" and "consciousness"

Various structures and imaginations about human wisdom are spread across various civilization myths.

In these trial spaces, in these worlds, there will be spaces for spiritual creatures like them to break into. Yao Yan has already figured this out.

But, the question is, why "Spiritual Bridge"?

Something like the Spiritual Bridge is "reality". In terms of structure, "main world" can be used as a proxy for the time being.

The Spiritual Bridge is a structure that appears among humans in the main world——

The structure that connects physical and mental space.

Why does a "spiritual bridge" appear in this world?

Yao Yan was thinking about one thing——

That is, the origin of “spiritual space” itself.

According to the expected rules for the formation of the world, the world itself is formed like this, which can be briefly described as people’s subconscious belief that the world is like this.

People think that the world is a round sky and a square earth, then the world will be a round sky and a square earth.

If people thought the world had no gravity, then the world would have no gravity.

In general, the "spiritual bridge" itself should exist in people's minds in this world.

Then, here comes the problem.

Regarding the "Spiritual Bridge", Yao Yan didn't have the slightest impression——

There should have been no such theory of mind and body during his lifetime.

No, not necessarily.

Although he knew a lot when he was alive, that was because of his work, which involved various aspects of knowledge.

Compared with the amount of knowledge of ordinary people, his knowledge can be said to be that of a naturalist.

Because the focus is on social phenomena, psychology, and humanities, he knows a lot in this area.

But it cannot be said that he will master all the theories without leaving any omissions.

Not to mention, if the physical and spiritual structure of the spiritual bridge only appeared after his death and during the period when his consciousness was sleeping, then there would be nothing he could do.

It is indeed possible.

However, there is another possibility.

This world and these demons are the product of being "polluted" and "assimilated".

Yao Yan looked through the memory of this demon, trying to find the source of the spiritual bridge from her mind.

But, no.

This demon himself doesn't even know that he has a spiritual bridge.

Her spirit, the jungle of flesh and blood, might be better called subconscious.

Yao Yan thought.

Of course he still remembered what Lao Jia said before about the "law" level being able to "contaminate" and "assimilate" other things.

and

He reached this world through the pass he got from Lao Jia.

According to what Lao Jia said before, this world is what is left after a powerful host was eliminated by "Mr. Almost".

In other words, is it possible that this world has been "assimilated" by that powerful host?

"Spiritual Bridge" is the impact that powerful container has on the world?

It's possible, but Yao Yan wasn't sure.

After thinking for a short time, Yao Yan didn't stop any longer.

After separating the Abnormal Shadow Crow and putting it back into the body of "Kerry", he immediately controlled the demon body to "escape" from the town.

From Jia Li's perspective and from the devil's perspective, Yao Yan saw different scenery.

"Kerry!"

Soon after the demon body that Yao Yan controlled and occupied left, Lijier came to her side.

She remained alert, holding the witcher pistol in her hand.

"It didn't go very well."

Seeing her approaching, Yao Yan glanced at the demon's long hair on the ground that he had cut off.

"This is."

Following Yao Yan's line of sight, Lijier quickly discovered something on the ground:

"The demon's reproductive organ?"

In this era where there are no male humans, Lijil has no special reaction to things directly related to sex.

Not to mention that these things belong to another race.

Regarding these things, Lijier was taught to be "wary" - "wary of being parasitized."

Not to mention Yao Yan, humans' reproductive instincts rooted in genes have no effect on him. He is not affected by emotions now, and he has no special feelings for humanoid creatures like demons.

What's more, from a logical point of view, this so-called "reproductive organ" is no different from a flower.

After all, flowers are the reproductive organs of plants.

but

He turned to look at Ligil.

The information in the park is really ridiculously "backward".

Three days later.

A demon with only shoulder-length hair on his head looked at the city ahead.

Although some traces of human civilization can still be seen, the city has now turned into a strange city of giant trees covered with countless plants and vines.

No, to be precise, the city itself is made of spreading plant roots and vines.

At this time, two demons passed by him, wearing costumes on their bodies——

He is wearing somewhat similar clothes to Yao Yan now.

Demons are no longer the loose, wandering individuals in human records.

The devil has already begun socialization.

Moreover, demons who integrate the genes of different types of creatures have formed various social structures.

There are societies that have a loose collective division of labor like humans, and there are also primitive herd societies that are as rough as beasts and gain leadership status through violence.

But in front of Yao Yan, this

A society that resembles a bee colony or an ant colony.

The demon body occupied by Yao Yan was embedded in the city with a social division of labor similar to that of worker ants.

A truly social society?

The demons have a definite division of labor and responsibilities and live in this city.

Compared with the previous writer's view of the world and society with mechanical gods, this society can only be said to be rough and primitive.

It can almost be said to be a replica of the swarm of ants.
