Chapter 315: The Mysterious Old Man Appears
It's easier said than done.
Those who can do this are basically more confident in their own strength.
Or, if you have enough awareness of the unknown dangers to understand that struggling is a futile exercise and that it is likely to cause you a lot of trouble, you will not move.
In either case, there is only one premise, that is, the strength of the parties is quite good.
Otherwise, it is not called watching the changes, but being scared silly.
After many time and space shuttles, Wang Yi has become very sensitive to the changes in the surrounding space.
He could feel that this person was very skillful when he moved the space, and there was almost no discomfort for him, and the transition was very natural, obviously to the point of perfection.
In fact, when Wang Yan opened the door of time and space, he was even more clever and more secure than the other party's methods, which of course did not mean that Wang Yan's strength was above the other party, but because Wang Yang used the special power of the Sky Viewing Mirror.
If you simply look at your own strength, Wang Yan has not yet reached the realm of opening the door of time and space, although he has been working hard, but to achieve this goal, I am afraid it will take a long time.
"What is sacred?"
"People who can make such a big scene are definitely not idle people!"
Wang Yan pondered about this, but his face did not change at all, and he was very stable.
After all that had happened, he had already understood that panicking would not help solve the problem, it would only make his situation more awkward.
When time and space shift, everything around is basically blurred.
Wang Yi has also analyzed this situation, and he believes that this change is likely to be a means of protection for the spatial structure itself, or a special protection for the users who carry out the space transfer.
Otherwise, when a person is moving into space, people in the nearby space will see the details of a person slowly disappearing, which will be a very terrifying supernatural plot.
At the same time, such a transfer process will also allow the transferred person to have a process of adapting to the new space, so that the scenery will not change too quickly and various symptoms of inadaptability will appear.
Sure enough, after the time and space transfer was over, the surrounding scenery returned to normal.
"Huh?"
When Wang Yan saw the figure on the opposite side clearly, he couldn't help but be a little stunned.
He really didn't expect that the other party was actually someone he had seen, and there were some holiday entanglements between the two sides.
The great lynx, the squid spirit Zora, and a huge rabbit spirit, and a white-haired old man surrounded by them, are the strange people who look exactly like the legendary Professor Lan Xuelong.
Wang Yan couldn't help but touch his small bag of space magic weapon, wondering if the other party had come to get this thing back?
After all, Wang Yan picked up the other party's treasure at the beginning, and then ran away.
If the other party asks him for this thing, will he give it to him or not?
This is a serious question.
It's just that Wang Yan noticed that the squid essence and the big lynx looked at him with a hint of anger in their eyes, while the big rabbit next to him was more like he had come to make soy sauce, and his eyes showed a curious look, obviously very interested in Wang Yi's appearance.
Wang Yan's attention was all focused on the old man who looked exactly like Professor Lan Xuelong.
Because when communicating with Zhang Xixi before, Wang Yan was told that Professor Lan Xuelong had not left the base, so this white-haired old man would definitely not be Professor Lan Xuelong, but the two of them looked exactly the same, which made Wang Yang puzzled.
In any case, if something is abnormal, it must be a demon.
Wang Yan's vigilance against this old man was also raised to the highest level.
"Hah!"
"The thief who stole my bag!"
The white-haired old man shouted out his identity as soon as he saw Wang Yi.
Obviously, the old man had some kind of secret method to be able to determine that what he had lost was on Wang Yan's body.
"Steal?"
"How can you say steal?"
"It's obviously a baby I picked up on the road!"
Of course, Wang Yan couldn't accept this basin, and he immediately refuted it.
In fact, although she knew that the bag belonged to the owner, there was no doubt that he had picked it up from the road, so the claim of stealing it could never be established.
"Well, that's not the point!"
The white-haired old man waved his hand, as if he didn't care much about the loss of the space magic weapon.
"I just want to see with my own eyes what the person who changed the direction of the whole world is like?"
His gaze looked at Wang Yan's body, as if he was looking at something seriously.
After all, it is impossible for him, who is paying attention to the changes in the world situation, not to notice the sudden appearance of Wang Yi's variable.
Whether it is the appearance of the zombie tide, the concentrated outbreak of mysterious events, or the sudden arrival of gods, these have caused a huge impact on the entire Earth Federation, not only in life, but also on the spiritual level of all people.
And at this time, if there is no strong core figure among the citizens of the Earth Federation, who can stand up and shoulder these difficulties, the current Earth Federation will be a mess.
Without the spirit of the Earth Federation, it is destined to be incorrigible.
But the appearance of Wang Yi did change all that.
The white-haired old man wanted to take a closer look at Wang Yan in order to analyze why things had become the way they were?
"I'm just a normal person. β
Wang Yan was surrounded by an old man and three monsters, and suddenly felt very uncomfortable.
"Who the hell are you?"
"Is there any special relationship between you and Professor Lan Xuelong?"
Wang Yan looked at the mysterious old man and couldn't help but ask this question.
Ever since he met this mysterious old man, he had been in contact with all kinds of mysterious events, and at the same time, he had also started his evolutionary path from an ordinary mutant to a cultivator with vast magical powers.
When he saw this mysterious old man again at this time, Wang Yan's heart was of course full of all kinds of questions.
For him, it is also very important to find out the identity and origin of the mysterious old man.
After all, in any matter, there are several people behind the scenes who control the direction of history.
If they can't be found out, the parties concerned can only be kept in the dark and never be able to find the truth of the matter.
"You actually know Lan Xuelong?"
"It's kind of funny. β
"Oh, by the way, you have a friend who works for Lan Xuelong, no wonder. β
The mysterious old man was a little surprised when he heard Wang Yi's question, but he was immediately relieved.
He pushed back from Wang Yin's question, and quickly understood the significance of Zhang Xixi's existence in this matter, it must have been Zhang Xixi who told Wang Yang about this matter, so it led Wang Yang to ask this question.
"Strictly speaking, I'm just a shadow of Lan Xuelong. β
"Or maybe you can think of me as one of his doppelgangers. β
The mysterious old man didn't seem to be difficult to deal with, and after he muttered for a while, he revealed his identity to Wang Yi.
Shadow?
Doppelganger?
What's going on?
The description of the mysterious old man suddenly made Wang Yan feel inexplicable.
Could it be that the other party has cultivated into a supernatural power such as one qi and three clears, and has practiced a real clone?
If that's the case, Wang Yan feels that he will definitely not be able to beat the other party, after all, a cultivator with a doppelganger is the real top boss, and it is definitely not an existence that a rookie like himself who has stumbled into the circle of cultivators can deal with.
In the face of such a big man, it seems that he has only one way to escape immediately.
Otherwise, I am afraid that he will encounter all kinds of dangers.
It's just that the other party's words also aroused Wang Yi's interest.
He wanted to know what kind of secrets were hidden behind these things.
"Don't you understand?"
"It's okay, I can tell you slowly. β
"At this time, it's a long story, in an experiment thirty years ago, Lan Xuelong experimented on his own body, and it turned out that something went wrong, so he cultivated a new individual, which is me. β
"Lan Xuelong and I are from the same origin, and we are one. β
The mysterious old man looked at Wang Yan, who was confused, and explained to him the relationship between himself and Professor Lan Xuelong.
Quite simply, the two are indeed from the same source, which is no problem from a biological point of view.
"Then what's going on with your relationship?"
"I have a feeling that what you're doing doesn't seem to be quite in line with what he thinks. β
Wang Yan scratched his head and asked with some curiosity.
Although this was just his own speculation, from what Wang Yan indirectly learned, it could indeed be seen that the relationship between Professor Lan Xuelong and this mysterious old man was a bit special, not on the same path, and even hindered each other, which was also surprising.
"A clever boy!"
"Yes, the differences between me and Lan Xuelong have existed from the beginning!"
"He always thinks that only he can save the whole world, but I don't think so, I think that restoring the balance of the natural world is the only way to solve the problem!"
"Based on the fact that the current human race is too powerful and has seriously damaged the ecological balance of the world, I came up with an idea, that is, to use special means to give birth to a group of people who can compete with human forces!"
"That's what you're seeing now, youkai!"
The mysterious old man didn't hide any thoughts, he explained to Wang Yi what he had done, and the real purpose of what he had done.
"But what's the use of that?"
Wang Yan listened to his words and couldn't help but shake his head.
In Wang Yi's eyes, the mysterious old man is a wonder.
His method of artificially creating monsters, in Wang Yan's eyes, has no positive meaning at all, and will only make the already bad situation even more chaotic.
And the so-called restoration of ecological balance by the mysterious old man is also fundamentally unworkable.
He did not bring any positive changes other than the many troubles he brought to human society.
These artificially generated monsters are indeed very naΓ―ve in some things, and if they can't accept the in-depth study of the relevant knowledge of human society, they will not bring any good changes to this world at all.
Especially when the gods began to descend, the mysterious old man's behavior of creating monsters did not play any useful role at all, but only disrupted the existing social balance and put more pressure on the current crisis.
"Do you have a solution for the gods?"
Wang Yan looked at the mysterious old man and asked with some disdain.
"The matter of the gods, Lan Xuelong will find a way. β
"His Heavenly Palace plan should be about to be implemented. β
"If you're interested, you might as well join in and have a look, it should be a good reward. β
The mysterious old man stroked his beard and replied thoughtfully.
Obviously, he had nothing to do with the gods.
After all, this kind of gods who suddenly ran over from another space were completely unexpected by everyone, and their appearance was a bit unbelievable, and they didn't know how they were interested in the earth and had to come to occupy this place.
Even if the mysterious old man can cultivate an army of monsters, but in front of the gods, it is still not enough to see, unless these monsters can evolve twice, evolve three times, and reach a very terrifying realm, it is possible to compete with these gods head-on.
But if you want to do this, it's really not something that the mysterious old man can achieve by himself, even the current method of mass-producing youkai is just a technology he got by accident, and it's not particularly mature.
As for the Tiangong plan, although Wang Yan had heard Zhang Xixi say this for a long time, Zhang Xixi was not very clear about the specific details, but he just knew that for this plan, Professor Lan Xuelong had insisted on it for more than half a century.
With such an important plan, Wang Yan found it hard to believe that Professor Lan Xuelong would let himself get involved.
After all, now Wang Yan is also very confident in his own strength, he will definitely not be cannon fodder, but will get a piece of the pie, in the face of this situation, Professor Lan Xuelong may not agree.
"I'd better fight monsters outside. β
"This Heavenly Palace plan may not be what I want. β
After thinking of these questions, Wang Yan couldn't help but shake his head again and again, and rejected the proposal of the mysterious old man.
Obviously, he was not willing to put his fate in the hands of others, and even Wang Yan did not agree that Zhang Xixi had been following Professor Lan Xuelong to implement the Heavenly Palace plan.
I don't know what's going on, Wang Yan's subconscious tells him that this Heavenly Palace plan is full of danger and can't be provoked.
"Actually, I'm just a middleman. β
"The one who really wants to invite you to join the Heavenly Palace Project is Professor Lan Xuelong himself. β
"After all, someone as good as you is like a firefly in the night, and he can't hide your light at all. β
"Looking at the entire Federation, you are the only one who can be worthy of Lan Xuelong's status as a partner of the Tiangong Project. β
At this time, the mysterious old man began to persuade Wang Yan seriously.
Who is a partner?
What is the purpose of this Tiangong plan, is it to do business?
Wang Yan listened to the words of the mysterious old man, and suddenly there was a lot of inexplicability in his heart.
I have to say that from the very beginning, Wang Yan has heard the legend about the Tiangong Plan, and has also received some more in-depth information from Zhang Xixi, but it is really hard to say how to implement the specific requirements of this thing and what the ultimate purpose is.
It was only when he met Professor Lan Xuelong, the person in charge of the Tiangong Project, that it was possible to solve this mystery.
"Not interested. β
"I'm going to have to deal with the gods. β
"If they were given a chance, they would definitely run out and take over the entire Federation. β
"I can't take that risk, I am responsible to all federal citizens. β
Wang Yan shook his head and still refused.
He saw it very clearly, the more the other party wanted him to join the Heavenly Palace Project, the more he couldn't easily agree.
Who knows what kind of danger is hidden in this plan?
Just listening to the description of the project at the time, you knew that it was certainly unusual, but full of unpredictable risks, and even a very terrible mortality rate.
Especially the special bloodline gene collection mentioned by Zhang Xixi at that time, it still makes Wang Yi feel very vigilant until now, after all, the special factors contained in his bloodline alone are as good as the total number of people with all special bloodline genes in the world, and this matter is definitely not that simple.
Wang Yan was a little worried, there was also a conspiracy in this matter.
"Actually, you don't have to worry. β
"Because Lan Xuelong has already decided, he will reveal the Heavenly Palace Plan!"
The mysterious old man saw that Wang Yan was unmoved, so he said the following words.
"Open plan?"
When Wang Yan heard this, he was really surprised.
He really didn't expect that Professor Lan Xuelong would propose such an article in the end.
It is indeed difficult for Wang Yi to imagine that Professor Lan Xuelong would put forward this condition.
After all, for the Heavenly Palace Plan, Professor Lan Xuelong had been preparing for nearly a hundred years, and in these nearly a hundred years, he could be said to have paid a great price, and even his entire life was for this plan.
Now, the last step, Professor Lan Xuelong is actually willing to make the entire Tiangong project public, and release the inside story and details of this plan to the entire federation.
This change was indeed beyond Wang Yan's expectations, making him feel hard to believe.
"That's right, completely open the Heavenly Palace Plan!"
The mysterious old man looked at Wang Yan with a stunned face, and nodded very seriously and replied.
"But why?"
Wang Yan hesitated for a while before asking him rhetorically.
He has never believed in love for no reason, and naturally he doesn't believe in hate for no reason, but this kind of unbelievable condition put forward for no reason makes Wang Yang feel that this matter is not simple.
After all, for Wang Yi, the name Professor Lan Xuelong means mysterious, and every decision he makes may be full of risks.
