Chapter 46: Gou Chen
Wang Yuetian looked at Wu Xing, whose dantian in front of him had been shattered and his cultivation had been completely destroyed, and seemed to have completely lost interest in him. He shifted slowly, looking around.
Looking at this battlefield full of bloody corpses and war, Wang Yuetian couldn't help but close his eyes. The slowly falling eyes were like a pitch-black canvas spread out in his heart, and every scene after coming to this battlefield was imprinted on the canvas in his heart.
It didn't take long for Wang Yuetian to open his eyes again, and there was a plain and confident light in his eyes. With a sullen breath in his chest, he suddenly turned to look at Gou Chen on the other side of the Blood River.
When he saw Gou Chen on the other side of the blood river, who was still wrapped in mist, a smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he bowed slightly
"Judging from the illusion I saw when I entered the battle, it should be one of the fragments of Gou Chen, the king of the demon clan who was cut down by the god general in ancient times.
In Xia Wang Yuetian, he was originally an ordinary man, but now he has just built a foundation for cultivation. It is a great honor to be able to fight with Zunjia today. I don't know if in the next game just now, can you enter the eyes of the driving law?
According to the memory that remains in the depths of his soul, he thinks that in terms of strategy against the enemy and the deployment of troops, compared to the demon king Gou Chen, who broke the army against the peerless god general, how is it?"
Seeing Wang Yuetian suddenly bow down and salute Gou Chen on the opposite side, Wu Xing was stunned.
After a while, Gou Chen, who was in the opposite coach's position, did not respond at all.
Seeing all this, Wu Xing, who was lying on the ground and had already accepted his fate, seemed to have finally seized the opportunity to take revenge on Wang Yuetian with words, and he immediately sarcastically said to Wang Yuetian
"Hahaha. Wang Yuetian. This Gou Chen has already been completely unconscious by the Ecstasy Array within this artifact, like a puppet in a dream, how can it respond to you.
What's even more ridiculous is that as a cultivator, you would actually salute a beast, and you would laugh at me. β
Hearing Wu Xing's words, Wang Yuetian suddenly put away the smile on his face. At the same time, he turned around and walked towards Wu Xing again.
Wu Xing, who felt that Wang Yuetian was approaching again, couldn't help but raise his head. But just as he looked up, he suddenly felt a black shadow flicker in front of him, and then he felt a thud sound in his head. And the next moment, a smell of blood filled his mouth.
The sudden pain made Wu Xing involuntarily open his mouth, and when his lips opened and closed, two front teeth spit out from his mouth.
Wu Xing, who was covered in blood, looked at the two front teeth on the ground that were kicked off by Wang Yuetian, and instead of being angry, he laughed.
"Wang Yuetian, you also have times when you are annoyed and angry. Can make you feel unhappy, my two front teeth are worth it! β
Seeing Wu Xing's slightly crazy appearance, Wang Yuetian shook his head and said
"No, no, Senior Brother Wu. I kicked off your front teeth not because I was angry, but because I wanted to save you, brother. β
When Wu Xing heard this, he couldn't help but laugh and said
"What? help me?"
Wang Yuetian nodded very seriously
"The illusion at the beginning of this chess game should also be seen. This Gou Chen hates others the most for calling the demon clan a beast. And Senior Brother, you just said disrespectful words, in case Gou Chen on the other side gets angry, I can't save you, Senior Brother.
Therefore, before Gou Chen is not angry, I will first punish my senior brother with a big warning, hoping to calm Gou Chen's anger. β
When Wu Xing heard this, he laughed again
"Hahaha. Wang Yuetian, are you crazy, what nonsense are you talking here! The incarnation of Gou Chen on the other side is just a puppet without consciousness. How can it kill me. β
When Wang Yuetian heard Wu Xing's words, there was a hint of playfulness in his tone for some reason
"Is that really the case?"
When Wu Xing saw Wang Yuetian's appearance, he sneered even harder
"Hahaha... It's ridiculous that you Wang Yuetian still ask yourself about things like a god, but you don't even know this?
This Gou Chen in front of you and me is just one hundred and eighth of the soul of that Gou Chen in this Lingyun Divine Palace!
The soul itself is inseparable, and once the complete soul is divided, even if it is a master of the primordial infancy, his temperament will change drastically, and he will even go crazy!
If the soul is divided into too many parts, even consciousness will be lost, and it will become some soul body with some chaotic memory fragments!
In this Lingyun Divine Palace, one of its complete souls was divided into one hundred and eight pieces, and it was unlikely that he would be conscious again. And the Heavenly Machine Cloud Pavilion is just in case, and the artifact is also mixed with the world's first phantom array. In this case, how can this hook still be conscious. β
Hearing this, Wang Yuetian couldn't help but shake his head, he didn't directly refute Wu Xing's question, but asked another question
"Senior Brother Wu, Senior Brother Wu. Based on what you know about me now, why do you think I, Wang Yuetian, came here to hook Chen Da Array?"
"Why? Of course you're for. β
Wu Xinggang wanted to instinctively answer that it was for the sect, but he suddenly remembered everything he had experienced just now. Wu Xing immediately realized that for the sake of the sect, it was definitely not the purpose of a person like Wang Yuetian!
Thinking of this, Wu Xing couldn't help but be stunned. Seeing this, Wang Yuetian smiled slightly, and then he said slowly
"This chess soul space was forced into by Zhang Pingtian at the beginning, and my first reaction at that time was to use his beloved daughter Zhang Yiren as a shield to resist one or two.
After all, entering this Lingyun Chess Soul Space to fight against Gou Chen, although I am confident that I can be invincible with this method of self-detonation of dust without knowing it. But in all things three parts are in men, and seven parts in heaven.
No matter how perfect the plan is, once it is put into practice, there will be loopholes of one kind or another.
As with any plan, the risk of failure accumulates from the moment the plan begins.
And once the accumulated risk reaches the critical point where quantitative change causes qualitative change, even the perfect plan on the surface will end in failure.
However, as Zhang Pingtian threatened step by step, I suddenly realized that blindly avoiding would not solve any problems. Avoiding problems only delays the problem, and even accumulates risks, making the probability of failure higher. To really solve the problem once and for all, you have to face it in the end.
When I figured this out, I couldn't help but start recalling the accounts of Gou Chen.
Thinking about it, I suddenly realized that maybe this Lingyun Chess Soul Trip would be my biggest opportunity. β
"Opportunity?"
When Wang Yuetian heard Wu Xing's words, he smiled slightly, turned his face to Gou Chen on the other side of the Blood River, and said
"I've always wondered what method the Heavenly Machines Cloud Pavilion used to trap Gou Chen, the king of the demon clan.
Even if this Gou Chen is a soul fragment after countless soul splits, according to the battle of the Heavenly Opportunity Cloud Pavilion recorded in the secret record: the Gou Chen fragment that was successfully extracted from the Lingyun Order for the first time should also have the cultivation of the Yuan Infant Great Perfection. This kind of strength is by no means something that a Heavenly Opportunity Cloud Pavilion without any Yuan Infant cultivation can deal with.
Senior Brother Wu, you said that since this Gou Chen was divided into one hundred and eight pieces, it was impossible for him to have a complete consciousness. But don't forget, the Gou Chen in this Lingyun Divine Palace on our planet is not a complete body. It is also one of the countless fragments of the demon king Gou Chen who was cut down by the broken army thousands of years ago.
Since the fragment of the demon king can have a complete consciousness, it can grow into an independent and complete hook. Then why is this independent and complete fragment so unconscious?"
Hearing Wang Yuetian's words, Wu Xing responded coldly
"Wang Yuetian, didn't you hear what I just said.
The soul is different from other things, the reason why the demon king Gou Chen was broken into thousands of pieces at the beginning, his soul fragments can grow back into a complete individual.
On the one hand, it is because the Demon King himself is a True God Realm cultivator, and the strength of his soul has reached an unbelievable level.
On the other hand, it is because the god will break the army in order to punish Gou Chen, so that it can see the destruction and defeat of the demon race. Deliberately cut off Gou Chen's soul to a level that his consciousness could bear. Therefore, the hook on Lingyun Star can be conscious.
But the Gou Chen on this Lingyun Star will not have too much soul strength due to the fact that it has been cut too much. Under this soul strength, it was forcibly divided into one hundred and eight pieces by the Lingyun Great Array. Although each fragment still has the cultivation of the Great Perfection of the Yuan Infant, the consciousness and memory contained in its soul are absolutely incomplete.
And the evidence of the incompleteness of the soul, you have just said. β
"Oh, I said it," Wang Yuetian heard Wu Xing say that he had said the evidence, but he couldn't help but be stunned.
"Yes, you also said just now that with the strength of the Heavenly Machine, it is absolutely impossible to trap the remnant soul of the Yuanying Great Perfection Cultivator.
But if the remnant soul retains only the instinctive animal instinct due to the incompleteness of the soul. The Ecstasy Array that passed through the Cloud Pavilion with the Heavenly Machine may not be able to contain it.
In other words, only using the Ecstasy Great Array to contain the incomplete soul Gou Chen is the only possibility for the Heavenly Opportunity Cloud Pavilion to survive.
And this is also the explanation of the Heavenly Machine. β
Listening to Wu Xing's words, Wang Yuetian sneered and shook his head
"Is there any chance of surviving? Senior Brother Wu, you are too naΓ―ve. β
"Wang Yuetian, what do you mean. β
"Senior Brother Wu, I just told you that those who believe in it can listen to it, but they still can't believe it. Actually, it's very difficult to tell a perfect lie.
Because the distance between a lie and the truth will leave a hole in the reality of the lie.
Senior Brother Wu, if it is really as you said, what we are facing is just a fragment of the soul, and only the basic animal instinct remains.
So, I'll just want to ask you one question, have you ever seen a beast that retains only its animal nature and can march and set up?"
Hearing Wang Yuetian say this, Wu Xing's heart couldn't help jumping, but he still said strongly
"Of course, among the wolves in the snowy mountains, the wolf's instinct to command the wolves is also very outstanding. It's also part of the beast's instinct. β
When Wang Yuetian heard Wu Xing's words, he shook his head again
"Senior Brother Wu, as you just said, this Hook Chen's soul is incomplete. There should be no consciousness, only animal instincts. You now say that marching is also part of animal instincts. I don't want to argue with you right now about what animal instincts are. Let's continue with everything you just said.
Suppose, as you said, the Heavenly Opportunity Cloud Pavilion used the gap in the broken soul of Gou Chen's remnant soul and then used the Ecstasy Great Array to confuse Gou Chen's remnant soul's mind, making it like a dream.
Then I want to ask you, do you think that the complete Gou Chen in the Lingyun Divine Palace will still remember this dream that Gou Chen had in the Lingyun Divine Palace?"
When Wu Xing heard this, his heart suddenly jumped
"The complete hook in the Lingyun Divine Palace?!"
"If it's really as you think, the Heavenly Opportunity Cloud Pavilion used the Great Ecstasy Array to control the soul gap of the hook, making it like a dream: re-experiencing the great battle of 10 million years ago, and signing a soul contract in the process of revisiting his dream, and splitting his soul again after winning the chess.
But don't forget, this Lingyun Order is made by Lingyun, and it has a time limit! As soon as the Lingyun Order expires, the token will be automatically broken.
And Gou Chen, whose soul had already been fused with the Lingyun Great Array, would also be sucked back into the Great Array because of the loss of the Lingyun Order. β
Hearing this, Wu Xing's face seemed to realize something, and his face suddenly changed.
Wang Yuetian couldn't help but show a slight smile on his face when he saw Wu Xing's changes
"From the mouths of the people who have entered the Lingyun Divine Palace before, we can know that the Lingyun Great Array is still operating well under Gou Chen's control.
In other words, the remnant soul that had been divided into one hundred and eight parts had actually been re-fused into a complete Gou Chen. Only in this way can the Lingyun Great Array, with complete Gou Chen as the core, run well.
So, Senior Brother Wu, it doesn't matter if your previous assumptions are correct or not. Do you think this complete Gou Chen will know what happened to one of his fragments? β
When Wu Xing heard this, he didn't answer, but a layer of fine sweat oozed from his head unconsciously.
Seeing this, Wang Yuetian did not wait for Wu Xing's answer, but continued
"Does Gou Chen, who is in this Lingyun Great Array, know everything that the Heavenly Machines have done in the Cloud Pavilion?
In order to solve this problem, I have carefully studied the situation of the previous battles of Gouchen. I found a very interesting phenomenon in this:
That is, over the years, the Forbidden Heavenly Sword Gate, which has the right to use the Lingyun Chess Soul, has made more and more adequate preparations for this chess game. But the strange thing is that the winning rate of the Forbidden Heavenly Sword Gate game is getting lower and lower!
If Gou Chen was really unaware of all this, it was just the same formation that hadn't changed. Then, this Gou Chen battle only needs to be copied from the lineup that won in one game.
But looking at the lower and lower winning rate of the Forbidden Heavenly Sword Gate in recent years and the increasingly strong chess strength of Gou Chen, it is difficult for me not to doubt: Is this main array's Gou Chen really unconscious, just a walking corpse bewitched by the Ecstasy Array?
Gou Chen, can you tell me now, what kind of promise did Mo Wentian make to you in the first place, so that you agreed to be the temporary instrument soul of this Lingyun Chess Soul?"
Hearing Wang Yuetian's words, Wu Xing, who was lying on the ground, trembled!
At this time, Gou Chen's voice, which had not spoken for a long time, sounded in the audience again
"What a smart human being, but don't you know that there is a saying among you humans that smart is mistaken by cleverness. Today, you will lose your life because of your cleverness!!"
