Chapter Seventy-Four: Reasoning
Although this confrontation was caused by Yun Xu's desire to "retaliate" against Jiang Ming, the two really needed a confrontation to prove each other's strength.
Jiang Ming had the perception of the power of heaven and earth in the Immortal Dao era, so although he broke through later, the power of heaven and earth he controlled was even stronger than that of the clouds.
And Yun Xuan forcibly gained the upper hand with the power of fusing true qi and outstanding swordsmanship, but as time passed, he had no understanding of the power of heaven and earth, and he had only one way to defeat after all.
"It's strange to me that I can't find your real weakness now. Jiang Ming frowned.
His usual way of fighting is to see through the opponent's weakness, and then rely on a higher realm to find a way that the opponent can't fight back, and although he can see through the current weakness of Yun Xudu, but when he is ready to attack his weakness, Yun Xudu will naturally react.
A weakness that can be compensated for by change cannot be called a weakness at all.
Yun Xuan was also a little strange: "I thought you deliberately released the water, it turns out that I really avoided your attack on my weakness." ”
"You don't know why?" Jiang Ming was a little puzzled.
Yun Xuan said: "It's not that I don't know, but I can't describe it specifically, it's like if a stone is about to hit my head, I will dodge, a needle is about to pierce my eye, I will blink, this is the natural reaction of the human body." When your sword does me harm, of course I'll dodge. ”
"Didn't you have this reaction before?" Jiang Ming suddenly realized something, it seemed that people who cultivated different paths had different worlds in their eyes.
When he was an ordinary person, and when he was an immortal cultivator, the world in his eyes was different, and the world in the eyes of people who cultivated the Demon Dao and the Martial Dao was different, and it seemed normal.
"I don't know, even if they cultivate the five magic skills, they will not lose their foresight of danger, and when they face an irresistible attack, they will also subconsciously dodge, but the focus seems to be different. When two people who practice the Demon Dao Exercises face off, no matter who has an absolute gap or before the winner has been decided, no matter who subconsciously thinks that they will win. Yun Xuan explained.
Jiang Ming thought for a while and said, "Do you still ignore that even if the other party is weaker than you, if you are hit by the other party, it will definitely lead to your own death?"
Yun Xuan nodded: "If it's a normal time, or when it's not too tense to fight, you won't ignore this, but once you completely enter the combat state, many things that should obviously be used in battle will be ignored." ”
"Even if you are a real martial artist, this will happen. Jiang Ming said.
"It's because it's so normal that it's hard to detect, even if it's absolute. "The clouds are empty.
"So, why does the Demon Dao Technique have this weakness?"
"Maybe it's because this is a technique for cannon fodder, and on the battlefield, a group of people who will not retreat are needed as a cover for the elite to reduce the losses of the elite. Although it can't have much impact, as long as some people are discouraged, it can affect the situation of the battle. ”
The two of you speculated on the characteristics of the magic and the reasons for its appearance.
"There is another reason, I'm afraid it's to leave a dead end, for the flaws prepared for people like you and me. The strength of the lower is often weaker than that of the superior, but the sum of the strength of the lower is often greater than that of the superior, otherwise the superior will definitely gather or cultivate better subordinates. ”
Jiang Ming said, "Therefore, every person in the upper position may bear the risk of rebellion among his subordinates, and this is especially true in the world of the Demon Dao, except that only absolute strength is the guarantee of loyalty." This absolute strength includes the absolute strength to defeat the enemy. ”
"But it's a very difficult, if not impossible, thing to do. ”
Yun Xuan continued Jiang Ming's words, "So a method was born, that is, to bury flaws in the exercises or martial arts under your hands. However, if the talent of his subordinates is high enough, then the flaws in the martial arts can be easily made up, and even if they can't make up for it, they can also create a weaker martial art. ”
"Although the method of burying a flaw in the practice is safe, it does not eliminate the possibility of their own improvement. ”
Jiang Ming said, "So, they started on the foundation of the exercises. ”
"Absorbing qi and blood and cultivating are the root of the strength of demonic skills, but they have also become the reason why they are controlled by others. "The clouds are empty.
"If it weren't for the tone of your speech being different from those plays, I really thought you were talking about cross talk. Ling Xiyue, who was hiding aside, couldn't help but jump out.
"Poof!" Jiang Ming and Yun Xudu couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Ling Xiyue was a little embarrassed, she understood what the two of them said was already the limit, and it was really reluctant to follow the reasoning of the two. Their expressions became more and more solemn at the end, but they didn't know what they were talking about, so she couldn't help but jump out.
At this moment, she was a little skeptical that she was really stupid.
"Everyone has something they are good at, and if you're not good at it, don't force it. Jiang Ming chuckled.
"Okay, then continue your reasoning!" Ling Xiyue dissatisfied.
Can't you take care of the feelings of the bystanders!
Jiang Ming chuckled, "No need, we have already determined that there are herding terrans in this world. ”
"Based on those guesses just now, aren't you afraid of guessing wrong?" Ling Xiyue was a little puzzled, speculations without evidence, no matter how rigorous they were, were just guesses.
Yun Xuan said: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether the guess just now is correct or not, the important thing is that we must treat it as true." ”
"If we don't plan for the worst, we won't be able to do anything when the worst happens. Jiang Ming said.
"What if the worst doesn't show up?"
"Isn't that just right? We even count the worst-case scenario, and we have no regrets about success or failure. Jiang Ming said with a smile.
They will not back down because of future difficulties, even if there is no possibility of success, they do not intend to back down, but this does not mean that they will work hard without brains, and only doing their best without using their brains is the laziest behavior.
"So, if a person who herds sentient beings really exists, then where would such a person be?" Ling Xiyue asked.
"If there are only one or a few herders, then the threat must be limited, even if it is completely restrained, it can be killed by numbers, so their number is not too small, it should be a group. Jiang Ming explained the reasoning process as simply as possible to facilitate Ling Xiyue's understanding.
Ling Xiyue said: "Are they the five top forces? Only they have the possibility to hide a powerful group, after all, the growth of cultivators requires a lot of life as the foundation, and it is impossible not to leave traces in this world, so there should be an organization like the Dark Hall hidden inside the five major forces, their identities are not known to outsiders, and what they do is also the darkest thing." ”
After speaking, she looked at Jiang Ming with a smile, waiting for his praise.
She just doesn't like intrigues, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have talent in this area, and Jiang Ming has already prompted this part, it would be too embarrassing for her to guess it.
"Your guess is very reasonable, and only the five major forces can do this, if this group exists outside the five major forces, then there is nothing to fear. ”
Jiang Ming affirmed Ling Xiyue's words.
The group that can be hidden by a force must be smaller than this force, and even if the small forces outside the five major forces are hidden, they can't hide much, and the possibility of being scattered and hidden also exists, but the possibility of being dispersed for thousands of years and still maintaining cohesion is too small, and groups without cohesion are not to be feared.
However, there is no need to mention this to Ling Xiyue, lest she think too much.
"Every city lord in Dongzhou is appointed by the Nine Underworld Sect, they are all the eyes and ears of the Nine Underworld Sect, even if many cities are controlled by the family, they can't help but report the specific situation to the Nine Underworld Sect. Therefore, there are not a few people within the Nine Underworld Sect who know the situation of the strong people in the world, and it is not suitable to hide. ”
Yun Xuan said, "The Middle Earth Divine Dynasty is similar to the Nine Underworld Sect, even more centralized than the Nine Underworld Sect, and it is difficult for the strong to hide, although the Drifting Snow City cares about all forces, but because of the control of a certain resource, all the martial artists above the Dan Dao are going to Drifting Snow City." The only ones left are Southern Xinjiang and Xizhou. ”
