Chapter 317: The Truth About the Demise of the Demon Clan
Is Wei Chen and Luo Chuan friends?
Absolutely.
But he is not the kind of friend who can sacrifice his future for the other party and destroy the hope of the sect.
Therefore, the reason why Wei Chen was willing to change his debate topic to Luo Chuan was not simply to give the latter a chance to catch up with this stargazing conference, but more for himself.
After all, the debate topic that Liao Tan drew for Luo Chuan was more suitable for Wei Chen.
And the two sides exchanged debate topics, Wei Chen can also get the favor of a Qingxiao list Tanhua by the way, why not?
However, in a flash, Liao Tan figured out Wei Chen's plan, but he didn't feel that he was being taken advantage of, nor did he have any intention of breaking the promise on the spot, but nodded with a smile.
"In this way, thank you Brother Wei. ”
The two exchanged bamboo slips in their hands, and Luo Chuan's argument serial number was successfully extended to the twenty-fifth place.
For Liao Tan, this is a happy thing for everyone, and it is understandable that both sides take what they need.
Of course, Liao Tan paid the price of a favor for this.
All of this was seen by Hongdou, Xie Changjing and others, and they expressed their gratitude to Liao Tan, but Liao Tan's response was so natural.
"Luo Chuan is my disciple of Ling Jian Sect, and I am Luo Chuan's senior brother, senior brother helps junior brother, isn't this a matter of course?
As soon as these words came out, many people were even more envious of Luo Chuan, especially with Xiao Yunshan's casual cultivation experience.
Envy that he has a good background.
I envy him even more for having a good brother.
And when the Qingzhou cultivators were still worried about whether Luo Chuan would be able to catch up with this grand event in the cultivation world, the first game of sitting and talking about the Tao had already begun.
The two sides of the debate were Xu Rong from the Dead Wood Forest, and Chen Xiu, a disciple from a super sect such as Jiuyanmen.
In terms of age, Chen Xiu was eight years older than Xu Rong, but Chen Xiu was only a disciple in the Nine Smoke Sect, while Xu Rong had already held the position of an outer sect elder in the dead wood forest.
The difference in the identity of the two also happens to reflect the depth of the two major sects of Dead Wood Forest and Nine Smoke Sect!
A star gathering realm powerhouse turned out to be only a disciple in the Nine Smoke Sect, which was extremely incredible in the eyes of many people!
You must know that Lin Ru, the Supreme Elder of the Ling Sword Sect, is only a Gathering Star Realm cultivator!
From this point alone, one could see how desperate the difference in strength between Ling Jian Sect and the Nine Smoke Sect was.
And Jiuyanmen is indeed worthy of the name of a real first-class sect!
The No. 1 debate question that Xu Rong and Chen Xiu got was very simple, and it can be regarded as one of the most classic debate questions in the history of human cultivation.
"On the real reason for the demise of the demon clan. ”
It is said that this debate is simple because there is no single correct answer, and both sides of the debate can play to their heart's content and make bold assumptions, but from another point of view, in the past thousand years since mankind achieved great unification, countless scholars, wise men, and spiritual giants have had their own opinions on this issue, and it is very difficult to find a new direction to discuss and come up with their own unique and reasonable answers.
Therefore, Xu Rong's face was like ashes as soon as he got the debate topic.
So Yan Shaoqing changed this proposition to Chen Xiu.
When the two walked to the front of the stargazing tower under the watchful eyes of everyone, and bowed to Fan Ye, the head of the Holy Star Division, Xu Bei, the commander of the Shenwei Army, and others, they both saw the solemnity and bitterness in each other's eyes.
But at this point, even if you know that you are about to be eliminated, you have to bite the bullet.
So the two of them came to the area demarcated by the Star Temple, sat relatively still, and took advantage of the last bit of time to constantly recall, integrate, and deduce the exposition they had prepared before in their minds.
The surrounding spectators were all holding their breath at this moment, and all of them focused on Xu Rong and Chen Xiu, and the atmosphere in the arena suddenly became unprecedentedly tense.
Then the master of the Holy Star Division took out a seemingly ordinary cloud incense, lit it with star power, and inserted it into the incense burner that everyone could see.
Although he didn't say a word, he was silent and sound, which brought great pressure to Xu and Chen.
When the incense is extinguished, it is the end of the word.
So Xu Rong took the lead in speaking: "Senior, please first." ”
Of course, this is not only the Dead Wood Forest's initiative to show weakness to the Nine Smoke Gate, but also Xu Rong's respect for Chen Xiu.
Although the two have similar strengths, the elders are respected.
In this regard, Chen Xiu did not refuse Xu Rong's kindness, but just nodded and said, "In this way, I might as well be respectful." ”
After a pause, Chen Xiu finally sorted out his thoughts and words, and finally spoke slowly.
"As we all know, a key time node for the demise of the demon race is the Bright Era, the ancestors of our human race comprehended the secret method of descending stars, replacing the use of natal weapons, and set off the grandest cultivation frenzy in human history. ”
"But in today's human history books, it only details the strength of the Bright Era, and the demise of the demon race is silent, vague, logically speaking, the demise of the demon race should be an extremely important and critical node in my human history, and the ancestors of the human race who dominate all this should leave the most colorful stroke in the annals of history for future generations to admire, so why is there no history book that leaves us with enough reliable clues?"
"Chen is foolish and thinks that there are two reasons, either this history was deliberately erased by the ancestors of our clan, or the demon clan has not really perished!"
As soon as Chen Xiu's words came out, they immediately attracted a heated discussion among everyone, but unfortunately, no matter how impassioned he was, he failed to make people feel how amazing this statement was.
The reason is very simple, Chen Xiu is not the first person to put forward the idea that the demon clan is not dead.
Since the argument is not the first one, the next more important thing is to see how Chen Xiu argues, and if there is something novel, it will not lose the opportunity to win the favor of the judges.
"Based on what I said before, the death of the demon clan is a glorious chapter in the annals of our human race, and my ancestors have no reason to hide it, so for Chen, the demon clan is not really extinct, and the reason for the so-called demise of the demon clan, or the reason why the demon clan is no longer seen in the continent today, I think it is because the demon clan people left the fertile land of the Starfall Continent and found a new home in the vast sea of stars!"
The words fell, and a bright applause suddenly sounded in front of Chen Xiu.
Xu Rong had a faint smile on his face, and then Chen Xiu's words said: "Senior Brother Chen's remarks coincide with what I thought before, but in my opinion, even if the demon clan people are not truly destroyed, they will definitely not find the so-called new home, but have been banished to the Star Domain Jedi by our ancestors with some kind of secret technique!"
Chen Xiu was not annoyed by Xu Rong's rebuttal, because this was originally the meaning of sitting and talking about the Tao.
So in the next moment, Chen Xiu spoke again: "The existence of the Star Domain Jedi has not been confirmed so far, not to mention, if it is really the ancestors of our clan who exiled the demon clan, why don't you leave a word in the history books?"
Xu Rong shook his head: "Indeed, as Senior Brother Chen said, the existence of the Star Domain Jedi is still a mystery, but according to the deduction of my Great Liang scholar Gu Ciyun, the condensation of the Star Domain Jedi can be implemented in theory, but the cost required is too great, at least the lives of ten Qi Star Realm powerhouses need to be sacrificed to achieve it, and it will even form a terrifying spot within a radius of thousands of miles, and this is the real reason why even the history books cannot record it in detail." ”
After a pause, Xu Rong gave his own conclusion: "Because the people who have been lucky enough to witness all this were all taken away by Madara at the moment when the demon people were banished. ”
Chen Xiu frowned disapprovingly, and then asked, "Even if this is the case, then no one has deduced the truth of the facts through the existence of the Madara, or the vision of heaven and earth caused by the appearance of the Star Domain Jedi?"
Xu Rong said with a smile: "Senior Brother Chen forgot, after sucking up many life forms, Madara will completely disappear in just two or three hours, so naturally he will take away the only evidence. ”
Chen Xiu shook his head: "But the root of all this lies in whether the Star Domain Jedi really exists, even if Mr. Gu Ciyun has proposed a certain possibility, no one has been able to verify it so far." ”
Xu Rong was silent for a moment, and then said: "After all, the price is too great, if there is no absolute necessity, just to confirm this possibility, but to sacrifice the lives of my ten Qi Star Realm powerhouses, it is simply too child's play, yes, the existence of the Star Domain Jedi may never be verified." ”
After a pause, Xu Rong said again: "But if Senior Brother Chen's grasp of the existence of the Starfield Jedi can't confirm this, wouldn't it be fifty steps and a hundred steps? After all, above this vast firmament, whether there is a brand new world like the Starfall Continent is just an idea, and it has not been confirmed in any way." ”
Hearing this, Chen Xiu smiled for the first time.
"I can confirm that. ”
As soon as the words fell, not only Xu Rong, but even everyone, including Fan Ye and Xu Bei, were slightly stunned, and all of them focused on the piece of iron that Chen Xiu took out of his arms.
Xu Rong looked at the iron piece in Chen Xiu's hand, and for some reason, an extremely ominous premonition suddenly rose in his heart, he secretly swallowed a mouthful of saliva, and said in a deep voice: "I don't know if this is ......?"
Chen Xiu held the iron piece high into the air and said word by word: "I bought this thing from a friend at a great price, if he is honest and does not deceive me, it can prove that there are indeed other worlds and civilizations outside of my Starfall Continent!"
Xu Rong took a deep breath: "How can it be proven?"
This time, Chen Xiu did not answer, but gently pressed against a not-so-obvious bulge on the iron plate.
So in the next moment, two blue lights slowly rose from the iron sheet, as if a large curtain had unfolded in front of everyone, and an extremely short and seemingly real picture appeared.
In the middle of a jungle, a volcano erupts in the distance, and a small beast that looks like a hare flees in panic, and the whole world is gone.
The whole picture was only about ten breaths from beginning to end, but until the end, Xu Rong didn't understand the meaning of these pictures, and many cultivators, including him, showed a helpless smile on their faces, thinking that Chen Xiu was playing tricks.
But soon, that smile faded.
Because Fan Ye and Xu Bei did not smile, but came to Chen Xiu with solemn faces at the same time, and one of them asked him a question.
"Can I dedicate this to the Star Temple?"
"Who's that friend you're talking about?"
The former question is actually not a problem, because Chen Xiu can't refuse it at all.
So he just answered the latter question raised by Xu Bei with great apprehension.
"Now the top of the Tang Qingxiao list, Tang Jiu. ”
