"That means that before they get the approval of the southern island, the spirit beasts in the back mountain aren't considered part of the spirit beast clan, and only the especially powerful ones are allowed to go there, right?" Lin Yi said, understanding. Doesn't that mean that the spirit beasts in the back mountain were all picked from the southern island?"
"That's right, but not all powerful spirit beasts are willing to join the southern island. After all, after joining the southern island, although you human cultivators dare not have any ideas about them, they themselves will also be subject to various restrictions. Therefore, there are still many extremely powerful spirit beasts that do not belong to the spirit beast clan. This is the same as many grassroots individual cultivators in you humans who are unwilling to join the sects."
