Of course, Ya Zhao Lin was also very familiar with the Pangolin Race, which was also a Tier Three Race, even stronger than the Spirit Crow Race.

They had hard scales and strong forelimbs, their claws were extremely sharp, and they were skilled at digging through soil and rock. They had a keen perception ability for underground mineral veins, able to find areas rich in ores through their sense of smell and touch.

Even Pangolin Beasts could dig rapidly and skillfully avoid dangerous geological structures during excavation, making them indeed very adept at mining.

The problem was that when they encountered danger, they could quickly burrow deep underground.

Even a Tier Four Race would find it almost impossible to catch them.

Fighting them was out of the question, but escaping certainly wasn't an issue.

Yet, despite this, the Pangolin Race was still captured by the Human Race Cultivators.

This showed the terrifying might of the Human Race Cultivators, which was simply beyond imagination.

"But how exactly did these humans enslave so many races?"

Ya Zhao Lin felt quite puzzled.

Because even the strongest races on the Western Continent didn't have such means. If they did, they would have unified the entire Western Continent long ago, rather than still being in an era of feudal warfare.

"As far as I know, it's because the Sect Leader of the Primordial Talisman Sect possesses an Exotic Treasure."

"This Exotic Treasure can forge a Soul Contract with us."

"Once the contract is signed, it can never be violated."

"If one dares to betray, with just a thought, the opposing side can make us perish."

"Therefore, so far, no Spirit Beast has dared to rebel; instead, they have integrated into the Primordial Talisman Sect."

The Spirit Crow Elder explained.

It also didn't know exactly what kind of Exotic Treasure it was, only that the power of this Exotic Treasure was very formidable, beyond imagination.

Additionally, it could clearly perceive the power of the contract.

"I see."

"But I noticed that the clansmen's lives don't seem to be that bad."

"Could it be that humans aren't bullying us?"

Upon hearing this, Ya Zhao Lin couldn't help but nod. No wonder the Primordial Talisman Sect had enslaved so many races, but no Spirit Beast dared to resist; they were already thoroughly controlled.

However, it soon discovered that the clansmen who had long been captured by the Primordial Talisman Sect, although seemingly lost their freedom, appeared to have improved lives.

The once bony Spirit Crows had notably gained weight, much to its surprise.

"Oh, although the Human Race enslaved us, making us deliver parcels for humans."

"Such labor is compensated, granting us some Spirit Stones every month."

"We can use these Spirit Stones to purchase quite a lot of Spirit Rice, Spirit Fruit, and even Spirit Insects."

"Overall, after being captured by humans, our lives have significantly improved."

"At least ordinary Spirit Crows are well-fed and clothed."

The Spirit Crow Elder said awkwardly.

To be honest, it never expected life to be better after becoming a human slave.

Every Spirit Crow ate and dressed better than before.

But this couldn't be helped.

The Spirit Crow Race was previously a Tier Three Race, with only one or two Tier Three Spirit Crows, over a hundred Tier Two Spirit Crows, and the rest at Tier One.

Such prowess meant little on the Western Continent.

Upon encountering other powerful races, they might be hunted and killed without a trace left.

This led to a very challenging survival for the Spirit Crow Race.

Except for the Tier Two and above Spirit Crows, life was terrible for the Tier One Spirit Crows, who expended enormous effort daily just to find food.

And worse, a careless encounter with a powerful Demon Cultivator could lead to sudden death.

But since being captured by the Human Race and becoming human Spirit Beasts, they had no safety concerns, at least not fearing being eaten by other Demon Cultivators.

And as for enslavement, it merely involved delivering parcels, hardly requiring much effort.

For Tier One Spirit Crows, this undoubtedly was an excellent job opportunity.

After all, they never imagined before that just delivering parcels or food could easily support themselves.

Over time, ordinary Spirit Crows found life in the Human Realm to be not so bad.

At least there, life was secure and safe.

"Working for humans, yet they still pay a wage, and give Spirit Stones?"

"Humans treat us enslaved races so kindly?"

Ya Zhao Lin felt incredibly incredulous.

Based on the West Continent Demon Race tradition, once a slave race, it meant being utterly enslaved.

The notion of wages was, of course, impossible.

If one didn't work hard, they'd be whipped, leading to a miserable existence.

Yet the current situation seemed less like being an enslaved race and more like a vassal race.

Perhaps this was why its clansmen were happy to remain here.

"Indeed, it's quite unbelievable."

"But we've been in the Primordial Talisman Sect for so long."

"If they intended to harm us, they would've done it long ago, there's no need to deceive us."

"Given our strength, we couldn't possibly win against the human cultivators here."

"Living in the Primordial Talisman Sect, for our Spirit Crow Race, is actually a pretty good choice."

"At least with a powerful race's protection, our Spirit Crow Race can survive, not having to fear for our safety."
