Volume 1 The ups and downs of his life Chapter 74 Evil tricks

"Ahh The two strange men saw the whole process of the handsome and evil young man winning the sword and falling, and suddenly let out a roar and rushed towards Wang Xiaotian like crazy.

According to the canons of the Scientical Church, they, as subordinates, should risk their lives to protect the young man. If that youth dies, they will be brutally punished. No one wants to taste that punishment.

Wang Xiaotian didn't realize the impending danger at all, looked at the motionless young man in a daze, and said to himself, "I didn't want to kill him, why didn't he dodge?

In the blink of an eye, the two strange men had rushed behind Wang Xiaotian, and the rays of light from the two "feather streamers" shot at Wang Xiaotian's back, and the war knife and long sword greeted Wang Xiaotian's ribs.

"Xiaotian!" Ling Yanzi shouted urgently.

Wang Xiaotian immediately woke up, and his soul and consciousness instantly returned to their places. He bowed his head, stooped forward, and strode over the young man's corpse, avoiding the two rays of light and the sword and sword.

He stretched out his hand and pulled out the long sword from the young man's chest, twisted his waist with a step, turned and stepped over the young man's corpse, and raised his sword to thrust.

With a crisp sound, the strange man's war knife blocked the long sword, and at the same time pushed it outward, and in a tooth-aching friction sound, half of the blade had been cut by the long sword.

The strange man hurriedly aimed the "Flying Feather Streamer" at Wang Xiaotian and was about to press it. Wang Xiaotian had already grabbed his wrist, forcibly twisted his hand, and aimed the "Flying Feather Streamer" at the strange man himself.

The strange man was afraid of injuring himself by mistake, so he hurriedly released the button.

Wang Xiaotian swung his sword hard, completely cutting off the strange man's sword, and then he flicked his wrist, ready to wipe the opponent's neck with a sword.

"A thousand miles of embankment collapsed in an anthill". Once this psychological hurdle is broken, it will break the jar and fall, like a broken embankment, and this hurdle will become fragmented in an instant.

"I've already killed one anyway, and I don't care if there's another one. Like most people, Wang Xiaotian also thinks so in his heart.

"Beware of corpse explosions!" Ling Yanzi suddenly shouted.

Wang Xiaotian's heart trembled suddenly, his hair stood on end, and his back was cold, and he suddenly sensed that a huge danger would come in an instant.

He immediately took a sharp turn and turned behind the strange man.

Ling Yanzi had also chased after the other strange man like lightning, and grabbed him by the neck, making him unable to move. Then she put her shoulders against the back of the stranger, and the whole person hid behind the stranger, using the stranger as a shield.

Wang Xiaotian had just gained a firm foothold, and with a loud "boom", the body of the handsome and evil young man exploded violently.

The huge impact force, Wang Xiaotian and the others who hit them, all flew out upside down. The scorching flames, frantically licking the two strange people who were blocking Wang Xiaotian and Ling Yanzi, also ignited flames on them, and they let out piercing screams in pain.

Wang Xiaotian bent his legs and kicked violently, stopped his retreat, and then immediately used force to push away the strange man who was on fire on his body, and hurriedly looked for Ling Yanzi. When he saw Ling Yanzi and pushed away the strange man who was on fire, his hanging heart relaxed.

The strange man on fire struggled and pounced on Wang Xiaotian, looking like he wanted to die with Wang Xiaotian. Wang Xiaotian slashed his head with a sword. This can be regarded as a relief from his pain.

Ling Yanzi kicked another strange man who was on fire seven or eight meters away. The strange man struggled a few times, but finally failed to get up, and soon turned into a ball of flames.

Wang Xiaotian walked over quickly, "Sister Yanzi, are you okay?"

Ling Yanzi shook her head, "It's okay, are you okay?"

"I'm fine. What just happened? How did that guy explode?"

The young man had been reduced to the wreckage of countless fragments. These fragments are scattered irregularly in a radius of more than ten meters.

Ling Yanzi looked at the fragments and said softly, "He has a very high status in the sect, and he has a lot of secrets hidden in his body. In order to prevent the enemy from getting these secrets, a Force bomb with incredible power was planted on him. ”

This bomb can be used as a weapon for him to die with the enemy, and also as a tool for destroying his body after his death. ”

Wang Xiaotian said in surprise: "You mean he always knew that there was such a ghost thing on his body?"

Ling Yanzi nodded, "Yes." ”

Wang Xiaotian was even more incredulous, "That means he may explode at any time?"

"Nope. Only he dies or the detonator is activated. ”

Wang Xiaotian thought for a while and said, "Is it only he who can activate the detonating device?"

Ling Yanzi shook her head again, her eyes couldn't help but show fear, "Of course not. Besides him, the sect leader can definitely do it, and as for whether there are other people who can do it, I don't know. ”

She paused, and then said, "The Holy Maiden should be able to do the same." ”

Wang Xiaotian suddenly shuddered, "In other words, the lives of all the people in the Keshen Sect are actually in the hands of the sect leader and the holy woman?

"Not really. Ling Yanzi said: "There is a limit to the scope of external command control. This explosive device was originally used to destroy corpses. It was only later that it was added, and the command control function was added in order to prevent someone from betraying and revealing the secrets of the religion. ”

Wang Xiaotian thought about it, opened his mouth and closed it, repeating it several times, but he was still unable to say the problem in his heart.

Ling Yanzi saw his expression of wanting to stop talking, and said, "Do you want to ask, do I have this kind of bomb on me?"

Wang Xiaotian scratched his head and said, "That's right. I do want to ask. ”

"Yes. Ling Yanzi's expression was indifferent, as if she was talking about someone else's business, without the slightest look of fear or worry.

Wang Xiaotian was puzzled, "Aren't you worried?"

Ling Yanzi asked rhetorically, "What are you worried about?"

Wang Xiaotian pointed to the place where the corpse had been, "It's going to explode." ”

Ling Yanzi smiled faintly, shook her head and said, "No." It's far from headquarters, and no one can manipulate me. I'm not stupid, so why blow myself up?"

Wang Xiaotian said: "We killed them, and we are standing on the opposite side of the Science God Sect, are you not afraid that the sect master, or the holy woman will be angry with you if she knows?"

Ling Yanzi shook her head firmly, "No." Although his status in the church is very high, it is only relative to the general public. He wasn't high enough to enter the Master's Eye. ”

"This kind of small character is dead when he dies, and for the sect leader, it's just the number in the martyrdom column that has been added by one. Moreover, the sect leader has always pursued the strategy of 'raising Gu', firmly believing that only the strongest people are qualified to have everything, and the weak are born to obey the strong. ”

He encouraged the infighting among his followers, and even consciously provoked infighting. It's not a matter of a small character like ours to die ten or eight during infighting. Taking a step back, I'm still useful, and they're not going to abandon me at the moment. ”

Is it just for now? Wang Xiaotian secretly wondered in his heart, but he didn't ask, and instead asked, "What are those four weirdos who follow him?"

Ling Yanzi shook her head, "They are not even a sect member, they are just test specimens, or rather...... Consumables. ”

Wang Xiaotian's nerves trembled suddenly, "They are test subjects?"

Ling Yanzi asked rhetorically, "Have you heard of it?"

Wang Xiaotian nodded, "Not long ago, Professor Xin told me that the Science God Sect directly uses living people for experiments. ”

"Do you think it's cruel?"

Wang Xiaotian nodded, "Experimenting on living people has no humanity at all, and it's really unacceptable." ”

Ling Yanzi said: "In fact, the last step of the test results of the Fourth Research Institute is to use people as test subjects. ”

"What?" Wang Xiaotian looked at Ling Yanzi in disbelief, he had always thought that the Fourth Research Institute was only studying the mutation of alien beasts.

Ling Yanzi looked at Wang Xiaotian and said softly, "This is actually not a secret. Not only the Fourth Research Institute and the Science and God Cult, but also many organizations are conducting research on the 'limit of combat power'. ”

"The limit of combat power?"

"Yes. In order to avoid the scorching smell caused by the burning of the corpse, Ling Yanzi simply walked upwind and found a flat stone to sit down. Wang Xiaotian also sat down next to her, looked at her pretty face, and waited patiently for her to continue.

Ling Yanzi looked at the sky, dyed into golden clouds by the afterglow of the setting sun, and said slowly: "Cultivation relies very much on talent and qualifications, and if you want to reach the peak of martial arts, talent, qualifications, diligence, resources, and luck are all indispensable. ”

"Such harsh restrictions make the path of cultivation extremely difficult. In order to compete for cultivation resources, I don't know how many cultivators met each other with swords, and I don't know how many talented cultivators died on the way to the top of the martial arts. ”

"From a personal point of view, their fall is unfortunate, but from another point of view, they provide opportunities for more gifted and fortunate practitioners to polish themselves and make more room for growth. ”

Wang Xiaotian thought about it and felt that although what Ling Yanzi said was cruel, it was very reasonable.

Natural selection, survival of the fittest. Cultivation is never an easy path. From the moment you embark on the path of cultivation, the only goal is to reach the top of martial arts, and there is no other, life and death.

Ling Yanzi looked at Wang Xiaotian with a solemn face, and said with a slight smile: "Don't be so serious, let's just chat." Do you know why, in the past thousand years, even though there have been endless talents in the sky, the number of top cultivators is still only a handful?"

Wang Xiaotian shook his head.

"Because the resources of the whole world are limited. ”

"Is it limited?" Wang Xiaotian looked puzzled, "Why can't I feel it?"

Ling Yanzi smiled, "That's because you're not strong enough. ”

Wang Xiaotian's face was slightly red.

Ling Yanzi continued: "An acre of pond, a fish more than a foot long, will feel that this is the vast ocean, because it is too small. Its needs can also be met from the pond. So it won't die like the pond isn't big enough. ”

"But what if you change to a shark? A one-acre pond can't provide the shark with the nutrients it needs to survive for a long time, and it won't be able to eat enough and swim happily. It can sense that the resources of the pond are limited. What if we replaced sharks with whales?"

Wang Xiaotian's face showed surprise.

Ling Yanzi said: "An acre of pond can't accommodate whales. For it, the survival resources that the pond can provide him are not limited but scarce, and the living space is not small, but so narrow that it cannot be moved. ”

"Only the real sea, and one big enough, deep enough, can meet the huge demand for resources from whales. ”

"For our world, those top-level combat forces are far larger than whales. Only at their level can they feel that the resources of this world are limited. ”

After speaking, Ling Yanzi looked at Wang Xiaotian with a smile.

Wang Xiaotian suddenly looked ashamed, and hurriedly said, "Sister, don't laugh at me." Please continue with my sister. ”

Ling Yanzi smiled again and said, "Hundreds of years ago, there was an eighth-level Force Grandmaster named Gu Jingzhi who made a prediction, he believed that with the cultivation resources of the Chu Kingdom, a maximum of seven Force Grandmasters could be born. ”

Wang Xiaotian wondered: "How did he measure it?"
