Chapter 25 Psykers and Monsters

After Shen Chong visited many open areas such as training area, task area, living area, and training area, Chen Biao took him to the office of the 33rd Squadron.

The two of them were walking around again on the way. God knew how many rooms they passed through. Shen Chong had a deep understanding of the scale of this underground base. It was definitely larger than a football field, and it was divided into three levels.

The office is now empty, with nearly twenty partition tables placed in sparsely, and each table has a monitor, which looks like an ordinary office lattice room.

This made Shen Chong very uncomfortable. The layout here gave him a strong feeling of an office worker.

When he was an ordinary person in his previous life, he never felt that he had nine to five. He couldn't have superpowers in his life, so he still lived like this?

Next, the two went to the small conference room next to them to chat for an hour, and Chen Biao and Shen Chong talked a lot in full.

The two talked about the recent situation from the birth of superpowers and monsters, and finally talked about the difference between the official members of the demon-slaying demons and the non-staff members.

Since ancient times, strange things that ordinary people cannot understand have been collectively called monsters.

At first, demons were a general concept, including the creatures who transformed into personification after enlightenment, and the ability of humans to obtain extraordinary rationality.

Until in recent decades, with the development of scientific level, with more and more people becoming monsters, the research theories on this area have finally come from nothing, and have gradually been comprehensively and systematically refined, and finally reached a generally recognized conclusion.

The reason why people awaken their superpowers is because spiritual sources are born in their bodies.

This spiritual source is invisible, colorless, materialless, and weightless, but it is generally recognized as objectively existing in the human body.

Super powerful self-healing ability like Shen Chong is a kind of external appearance that is driven by the spiritual source.

Humans with spiritual sources are collectively called psychics, not psychics that Shen Chong thought at first.

So far, no two completely identical spiritual sources have been found, just like two completely identical leaves cannot be found in the world.

The two spiritual sources may be similar to infinitely close, but there will definitely be subtle differences.

Some bigwigs generalize the psychics in the world according to their ability expression based on a large amount of collected information.

For specific classification methods and reasons, Chen Biao asked Shen Chong to look up the information himself.

Corresponding to humans, creatures that have activated their intelligence, whether animals or plants, are collectively called monsters.

Humans are already enlightened and have gained superpowers after having spiritual sources, while monsters are slightly different.

The monster first obtains a monster that is similar but slightly different than the spiritual source, then activates spiritual intelligence, and then obtains different innate abilities based on its own species and life trajectory.

The monster's demon essence and other spiritual sources are like humans, but the titles are different, but the effects are similar.

The abilities brought by the demon essence are also subtle, and even the same clan, the same subject will not be exactly the same.

Whether it is a psychic or a monster, there are differences between innate and acquired.

Innate means that people born as monsters or psychics usually have family and bloodline inheritance, such as the Tianhu clan, or Chenjiagou where Chen Biao is located.

Acquired means that there is nothing special about this life when it was just born, but after growing to a certain age, something happened to happen by chance, which inspired the spiritual source or demon element that was originally in an inactive state.

For example, Shen Chong himself experienced gas poisoning and resurrected from the death. Even if the body now lives another soul from a parallel world, the event can essentially be understood as the adventure of "Shen Chong".

It's a pity that his adventure is too tragic and the price is too heavy.

If I had known the predecessor, I would have just wanted to curse, but I was dead before I woke up my supernatural powers, which was useful!

Of course, it is said that some people sneeze and rushed out so hard that they saw stars, and then they awakened the spiritual source.

The innate and acquired nature are not distinguished from each other. What level can be reached in the end, whether it is a psychic or a monster, it is often determined by the level of their own understanding, the quality of their talent, the level of cultivation methods, the experience of fighting and willpower.

When it comes to cultivation alone, monsters are easier than humans.

Monsters rely on talent to cultivate demons, and there is no fixed way. They naturally grow under the urgency of talent. Of course, they can also be improved by swallowing heavenly treasures or elixirs, or they can also break through in daily retreats and battles.

On the contrary, humans still need various methods to strengthen the spiritual source. If they just let it grow naturally, they will not grow much until they die.

In ancient times, whether it was spiritual source awakening or demonic energy catalysis, it was mainly inherited from the family's innate bloodline, and there were very few acquired births.

Because of the sparse number and the limitations of the rules, even families with bloodline inheritance rarely come out to influence the overall situation of the world.

In ancient times, when civilization first began, when mortals lived a life of slash-and-burn farming, they were like Xuanyuan, Shennong, Chiyou and other extremely powerful psychics were active in the world, promoting the evolution of civilization through war and fighting, driving the improvement tools of various ethnic groups, and developing agriculture and animal husbandry, etc.

However, as humanity prospers and the world's general trend gradually stabilizes, the bloodline inheritance of psychics and demon clans was invisibly weakened. In order to prevent the divine power from completely dissipating, all forces chose to stop, find a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, or open up their own small world to cultivate and survive.

During the Shang Dynasty, the Tianhu clan Daji was born against the trend, which triggered a factional battle between the psychics and monsters at that time. The world was in chaos and the people were killed or injured.

All the major spiritual sources and demon clans suffered heavy losses due to this, and then they were even more secretive about the world.

In the thousands of years since then, although there were occasional awesome people with amazing talents awakened after the emergence, because the method of systemless cultivation has been spread, these geniuses have only talent but are unable to get started.

For example, Li Bing, Zu Chongzhi, Lu Bu, Yue Fei, or some saints of the Western Regions. These people may have the most powerful force that is the best in the world or the intelligence that can create amazing achievements. They can always show great power far beyond their contemporaries in one aspect or another.

But unfortunately, since the spiritual source and demon source are not in a system and no one leads it, many psychics may not know that their own strength is actually due to the spiritual source until they die, and they just think it is because of their extraordinary talent.

Of course, there are also people who know that they are different from ordinary people, but they also choose to stay dormant and keep a low profile because they are afraid of being killed as monsters and monsters, and regard them as their biggest secret. Neighbors dare not tell them frankly.

For example, the reason why Zhuge Wuhou, who was calculating the world, chose a secret burial, is that he cannot verify where he was buried. It is unanimously recognized that Zhuge Wuhou is actually a psychic who is blessed by the spiritual source and has certain predictive abilities.

He knew that he was an extraordinary person, and he was afraid that someone would be dug up to the grave and cut off the body after his death. He found the secret in his mind. He mistakenly thought that the entire Zhuge clan was a stranger, so he caused the trouble to the Zhuge clan, so he chose a secret burial.

By the way, it also explained why the Zhuge family was no longer in power after Wuhou.

He obtained the spiritual source for the sake of his acquired nature, but he failed to cultivate to a strong enough level to form a bloodline inheritance.

In addition, although the cultural works of the two worlds are very different, they both have "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" and "Dongtian Collection". Chen Biao and Shen Chong even deliberately mentioned these two books.

The fox demon mentioned in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" and the Zhongshan wolf mentioned in "Dongtian Collection" that speaks people's words. Ordinary people think it is a story of gods and monsters or fictional fables, but they think that it should be a small number of monsters that have acquired demons.

Finally, with the development of the times, humanitarianism has reached a considerable level in recent decades. The shackles of the heavenly punishment that were originally shrouded in the inheritance and demon clans have gradually weakened, and the acquired awakened psychics and monsters have continued to grow slowly.

After experiencing a brief initial chaos, in China, the chaos quickly returned to order by the birth of demon-slaying.

The founders in the early stage of killing demons were all humans with the hearts of the people, and the monsters they wanted to kill were not just monsters, but also scum among those who did evil.

In the past decade, more and more good monsters have chosen to join the demon-slaying. On the one hand, they are looking for a place to settle down with peace of mind, and on the other hand, they can also obtain legal identities and slowly integrate into human society in another way.
