Chapter 208: The Invitation and the Origin
Yihemen.
The summit of the main peak.
Outside the courtyard.
Suzaku is missing.
Sun Yi stood under the tree with his hands together.
The old god was there, staring at the crimson wall, not knowing what to think.
Trample.
There was a soft sound behind him.
Li Wuji's nephew, Li Sheng.
"Elder Sun."
"Do you notice something is wrong?"
It bowed slightly, and his face was solemn.
Since leaving the courtyard, his gaze has not taken off the courtyard gate.
A minute ago.
Li Sheng noticed that there seemed to be an oppressive atmosphere in the courtyard.
Even if he's not in it, he can still feel it.
Li Sheng is concerned about his uncle's safety.
Seeing that Sun Yihe's face was wrong, he thought that he had also found an abnormality.
"Or not."
Li Sheng was about to propose to go into the courtyard to check the situation.
But see this time.
"Huh?"
Sun Yihe woke up like a dream, and his eyes returned to his senses.
"What's that?"
"I was thinking, this wall seems to be a little painted."
"It's better to find someone to make up for it in the past two days."
β.β
Li Sheng was speechless.
But he knew that without Sun Yihe's consent, even if he wanted to break in, it would be absolutely impossible for him to succeed.
"Alright, alright."
"Don't worry."
"Nothing will happen to your uncle."
"Are you really the president of the martial arts association for nothing?"
Seeing Li Sheng anxiously pacing back and forth behind him.
Sun Yihe plucked his ears and could only explain.
"But."
Li Sheng spoke anxiously.
He lost his mother when he was a child, so he was adopted by Li Wuji and practiced martial arts with him.
Li Wuji claimed to be his uncle, and he called him his uncle.
But in Li Sheng's heart,
For him, Li Wuji is a fatherly existence.
Since five years ago.
Li Sheng watched the other party change from the president of the martial arts association who was coercive to the old man who was in his last years today.
He secretly swore in his heart that he would protect Li Wuji.
"Stop."
Sun Yihe raised his hand to stop it.
"I'll do it when I have to."
The old man said.
Close your eyes slowly.
As soon as I heard this.
Li Sheng's tense heart relaxed slightly.
But his gaze never left the courtyard gate from beginning to end.
Chen Sheng
Li Sheng's eyes froze.
From the first time he saw the other party, he saw something very familiar from Chen Sheng.
Neglect for life.
This feeling Li Sheng has only seen from those wanted criminals who have killed countless people.
But all the wanted criminals he's ever seen combined.
None of them had such a strong sense of threat that Chen Sheng gave him alone.
In Li Sheng's heart, he secretly made up his mind.
Regardless of the conversation between Li Wuji and Chen Sheng.
He reminded Li Wu to be extremely careful of this person.
ββ
Inside the courtyard.
Whewβ
The early morning breeze stirs the foliage.
β.β
The atmosphere of slaughter spreads around.
Li Wuji's face remained unchanged and sat quietly in a wheelchair.
From the time he admitted that he was the elder.
Chen Sheng remained silent.
Li Wuji could clearly perceive that the other party's gaze swept over him from time to time.
Among them, there is a killing intent that is not there.
Although it does not appear.
But it does exist.
"I know what you're thinking."
"But if you kill me, you can't die with the elders."
Li Wuji's face was indifferent, and he did not panic because of this.
In the face of Li Wuji's explanation.
Chen Sheng was noncommittal.
After all.
This kind of thing, Li Wuji failed to come up with definite evidence, which is really not convincing.
If you don't give it a try, who knows.
The existence of the elder and Xiang Li is like a sword of Damocles suspended above the head, which may fall at any time.
Chen Sheng had long been tired of this feeling.
The chill in the air is getting thicker and thicker.
"Kill me, Lao Sun will be mad."
Li Wuji reminded softly.
"I know."
"Otherwise, why do you think I'm stupid sitting here?"
Killing Li Wuji may not be able to solve the problem of respecting the elders.
But it will definitely attract the hatred of the entire martial arts association.
Chen Sheng just wanted to see Li Wuji's reaction, and he wasn't really ready to make a move.
At least
Even if he wanted to do it, he wouldn't choose to be here.
"However, there are two things I don't know."
In the surrounding air, the killing intent disappeared.
As if it never existed.
Chen Sheng's face was indifferent, and he spoke slowly.
"Please."
Li Wuji didn't mind Chen Sheng's "offense"
He smiled and raised his hand.
"First."
"So, the current Elder is considered an independent individual, with a part of your consciousness?"
"Or has he been invaded by the consciousness of heaven and man?"
"If it's the latter, why would he still help the Martial Arts Association?"
"If it's the former, why do you want to solve him, and what does all this have to do with Xiang Li?"
Facing Chen Sheng's problem.
Li Wuji did not answer questions immediately.
He bowed his head slightly, as if in deep thought.
There was a moment of silence before he slowly spoke.
"If you really want to talk about it, it's more complicated."
"Both the former and the latter."
"At that time, I was proud of my soul."
"I think that even if something unforeseen happens, I can cut off contact as soon as possible and avoid the impact."
"After all, the high tide period had not yet arrived, and the concentration of qi was simply not enough to support the awakening of the celestial beings."
"At first, when I first connected my soul consciousness with the celestial body, I did gain great power from the other person's body."
"I can feel that I am gradually gaining the authority of the power of the heart."
"My soul is getting stronger than ever before."
"Soon, I was able to do what I had always dreamed of."
"That is to use the power of the soul to influence things in the outside world, not just my physical body."
"But what I didn't expect is."
"The price, in fact, has already come as early as the process of my gradual control of power."
"What happened?"
Chen Sheng asked.
"At that time, I had only cultivated the first layer of the theory of bipolar distraction, so that the connection between the soul and the body became loose and no longer close."
"But when my soul is connected to the physical body, it is not completely insulated from the influence of the physical body."
"I had already conceived this when I was trying to connect the celestial and human bodies."
"I have prepared several precautions for myself in advance."
"Once there is an accident, such as my consciousness being invaded by heaven and man, I can take the initiative to cut off the relics and disconnect."
"I also know that no matter how careful you are, there is always danger."
"But if you don't get into the tiger's den, that's what I thought at the time."
"However, I only anticipated the invasion of the consciousness of heaven and man."
"And ignore the subtle influence of the body on the soul."
Li Wuji did not continue.
Looking at Chen Sheng with a puzzled face, he turned to throw a question.
"Have you ever experienced a state?"
"At some point, you suddenly feel like your brain is very clear and rational."
"All the emotions that bothered you in the first place are gone."
"It's as if you're no longer a complex of emotions, but a perfect piece of machinery with a sophisticated structure."
"You can make the most correct and rational judgment in that state."
Listen to what Li Wuji said.
Chen Sheng nodded immediately.
He had also been in this miraculous state.
In that state, whether it is studying or working, the efficiency is multiplied.
"What does this have to do with what you're going to say?"
He asked, confused.
"This state is the state when the soul dominates consciousness."
"The so-called seven emotions and six desires are just material products secreted by our brains."
"For me, it was more like a shackle."
"When the soul is intimately connected to the body, it is difficult for us not to be affected by it."
"As an ordinary human being, only occasionally can we enter this state at certain moments."
"But I, who have cultivated the Polar Distraction Method, can take the initiative to enter this state."
"Normally, I would leave a thought to the soul consciousness and let it solve it in the most rational and efficient way possible."
Hear here.
Even if I didn't listen to Li Wuji's follow-up account.
Chen Sheng's face was stunned.
He could roughly guess what was going on.
"So."
"You leave a thought for your soul consciousness to think about how to solve the celestial crisis and unite the power of humanity."
"Your soul consciousness feels that there is no reason to prevent thieves for a thousand days, and is ready to take the initiative to nip the heavens and humans in the bud in advance?"
"Moreover, I think that the power of ordinary people and weak people has no power to resist in front of the heavenly people, so they began to rein in and control those talented martial artists?"
The reason why Chen Sheng made this statement.
It was because, in his previous contact with Lizong and Elder Venerable, he had already observed some signs.
Lizong doesn't look down on the weak, and only focuses on talented martial artists.
Not to mention the elder, when he saw Chen Sheng, he was ready to control him and serve the human race.
"You're half right."
Li Wu spoke slowly.
"My soul consciousness, while thinking about the thoughts I left behind, was gradually influenced by the consciousness of celestial beings who disregarded life, and gradually developed into a consciousness of self-independence."
"It was also one day when I was directly bounced away when I wanted to return to my soul consciousness that I discovered this."
"My soul consciousness thinks that my cowardly feelings towards humans will hinder the path of confronting the celestials."
"I tried to communicate with the new "him". β
"He believes that instead of waiting for the recovery of the celestials, it is better to take the initiative and take the initiative to deprive the celestials of their power."
"On the other hand, it vigorously cultivates talented warriors."
"That conversation was peaceful."
"Although I feel related to the fact that I can no longer enter the state of soul consciousness."
"But at least, the other party is on the same path as me."
"It's as if there is suddenly an extra person in this world who is born from the same origin as you and is intimate."
"You have the same philosophy, you have the same goal, and you can all work together."
"But then, his ideas became more and more radical."
"Although the number of celestial beings is far less than that of humans, it is definitely not small."
"Even if the elders take power day and night, the speed is too slow."
So he began to think about another path.
"Harness technology, and the power of ordinary people."
Speaking of this, Li Wuji paused again.
He trembled and stretched out his hand, took out something from under his hospital gown and put it in front of Chen Sheng.
"What is this?"
Chen Sheng's eyes froze.
On the chessboard is a tube of glass reagent.
And the appearance of this world, he is very familiar.
"This is the product of the joint research of Elder Zun and Xiang Li."
"It contains the blood of a high-level martial artist, which can make anyone who drinks him skyrocket in strength in a short period of time."
"The stronger the warrior who provides blood, the stronger the potency of this tube of reagents."
"It can be said to be a product of authority, martial arts, and science and technology."
"I think you've seen it."
Chen Sheng nodded.
In the first battle with Elder Zun, if it weren't for the reagent, I am afraid that he would be killed by Elder Zun in an instant.
Even when he was able to kill the elder at that time, the potion also played a great role.
Otherwise, relying only on 10% of the power of thunder, I am afraid that I can only fight with the old man and cannot crush the other party.
Chen Shenggang thought of this.
A flash of horror flashed across his face.
"Isn't it?"
"Not bad."
"Elder Venerable is planning to rely on these reagents to forcibly promote the strength of martial artists and even ordinary people, and use them to prepare for the fight against the heavenly people."
"Respect the elders and Xiang Li, they are ready to manufacture this reagent in large quantities."
"When the celestials appear, and our existing warrior strength is not enough to fight."
"They plan to use these reagents to forcibly improve the strength of some warriors and ordinary people to create a powerful army."
"But this reagent, even if some martial artists who are strong enough to drink it, although they can temporarily gain strong strength, their bodies will fall into a long period of weakness, and even leave permanent sequelae."
"And for some people who are not strong enough or even ordinary people, this is strength and poison."
"Once they drink it, they may be able to gain strength in a short period of time, but once the effect of the medicine wears off, they will die due to organ failure."
Speaking of this, Li Wuji looked at Chen Sheng.
"How many warriors do you think can be able to withstand this kind of reagent in the entire Huaguo and will not have serious sequelae?"
"Moreover, the efficacy of this reagent depends on the strong blood contained in it."
"Do you think there are currently several powerhouses of Xiang Li's level?"
"How many of them are willing to give their precious blood."
"I can tell you."
"There will be no more than twenty martial artists whose blood is strong enough to make this reagent."
"There will not be more than a hundred martial artists who can perfectly withstand the enhancement of reagents."
"In Elder Venerable's calculations, the probability of being able to defeat the celestials is not high enough with the strength of these martial artists alone."
So, he plans to use the power of more people to increase this probability.
"So Elder Zun began to explore the tone of many association members, including Xiang Li, in my name."
"After making sure that there are committee members who agree with their own ideas, they throw out their true identities to solicit the other party."
"Today, including the members of the Xiaoban Martial Arts Association, most of the high-level members of the Wu'an Bureau have been attached to the old side."
"And with the content of qi reaching its peak, the awakening of heaven and man is coming."
"Elder Venerable has gradually lost his patience, and he intends to directly control the current top martial artists in Huaguo, using them to manufacture reagents in large quantities."
"When the celestials wake up, then use the power of ordinary people who drink the reagents, consume the power of the celestials, and then cooperate with high-level martial artists to make a final decision."
"Their plan was originally only carried out in secret."
"It was Suzaku who lurked in the Holy Sect to learn about this."
"Wait!"
Li Wuji said this.
Chen Sheng interrupted suddenly.
He looked stunned.
"Elder Zun and Xiang Li, both of them are members of the Martial Arts Association."
"Why did the Vermilion Bird Hidden Holy Sect know about this news?"
"Don't tell me"
Chen Sheng didn't finish his words yet.
I saw Li Wuji nodding slowly.
"Holy Religion."
"I founded it."
"The Holy Sect Leader, my former body, is now being seized by the Elder Zun."
β.β
All of a sudden.
Chen Sheng didn't know what to say.
It took a long time.
There are such a bunch of in Huaguo.
Li Wuji made it all by himself?
It's a shame that when he was young, he still boasted of being a son of destiny.
Isn't this pure Heavenly Evil Lone Star?
"I know what you're trying to say."
"However, I founded the Holy Sect in the first place just to contain those martial artists who are doing evil."
"Evil cannot be caught or eradicated."
"There will always be people who will take risks for the sake of profit, let alone martial artists."
"What's more, where the Martial Arts Association was founded, technology was not as advanced as it is now, and our efficiency in arresting these people is extremely low."
"So I thought, why don't you take the initiative to create a place for these."
"Catch everything you can."
"If you can't catch it, leave them a so-called back road, in fact, they are still in my hands."
"And among the Holy Sect, those who are not willing to keep to themselves, I will arrange some tasks for them to die."
"And some of the faults are not big, or they are willing to keep to themselves, they use them to do things that are inconvenient for the martial arts association."
"It's just. When the independent consciousness of respecting the elders appeared. β
"While it has the power of my soul, it also takes away my original body."
"Now, with the exception of Suzaku, I have completely lost control of the Holy Sect."
Speaking of which.
Li Wuji, who was sitting in Chen Sheng, spread his hands.
There was self-deprecation in his smile.
"Right now, in front of you, is just a rotten shell with empty memories and physical rejection at all times."
β.β
Chen Sheng was silent.
He could only sigh.
Li Wuji is really calculating.
According to his original plan, I am afraid that he can take the power of the bright side and the dark side of Huaguo into his own hands.
It's a pity.
There was an accident with the elder.
Everything Li Wuji did, he made a wedding dress for others.
"By the way, you had a second question, what is it?"
The two were silent for a moment.
Li Wuji suddenly remembered what Chen Sheng had said earlier.
"So."
"What is the purpose of you coming to me?"
Everything Li Wuji said, Chen Sheng did not believe it.
After all
The other party is talking in the vernacular, and it is completely possible to fabricate the facts.
"I hope you can help me weaken the power of the Holy Sect."
"Me?"
Chen Sheng pointed at himself, his face stunned.
"You want me to kill your original body and become the leader of the Holy Sect?"
He has enough self-knowledge.
Although his current strength can be regarded as strong.
Dealing with a Suzaku can only suppress the other party, and it can't be killed at all.
Not to mention the Holy Sect Master above.
Chen Sheng knew with his feet that it was bound to be much stronger than Suzaku.
Otherwise, Suzaku alone can take down the other party, so why do you have to do it yourself.
"Definitely."
"My physical body, under the control of the elder, is now strong, even I don't know."
"If I let you deal with him, it is equivalent to sending you to death."
"And what do you want me to do?"
"I want you to be. The new Xuanwu. β
There's another chapter in the middle of the night, so let's read it tomorrow
