Chapter 221: Illusion Path
Kuju Mountain Hejiazhuang
As the No. 1 weapon family in the Jiuzhong Mountain region, the He family has been responsible for the deployment of all weapons and equipment of the Jiuzhong Army for many years. Therefore, the He family is different from other families, and the core figures of their family all live in a secret place deep in the 100,000 mountains behind the Nine Mountains. And in order to ensure the safety of weapons, countless Nine Heavy Troops were arranged around Hejiazhuang to guard, and it was difficult for outsiders to enter this place.
Today's steward of the He family is called He Ding. Among the past generations of stewards of the He family, he can be regarded as an unborn genius. After years of hard work, the power of the He family has continued to grow, reaching the apex of the He family in the Jiuju Mountain area in the past dynasties. The reserve of weapons and equipment has also increased at an alarming rate. The He family also became one of the core forces that formed the Ninefold Army.
This day was a few months after He Xiong's expedition returned, because of the failure of the operation, He Xiong did not immediately meet He Ding after returning to Jiuzhong Mountain, but waited for the calm of the situation, and He Ding has been in retreat, unwilling to see outsiders, so He Xiong waited for several months. On this day, He Ding finally called He Xiong, and the two had a separate conversation in the He family's secret room.
"Hehe, how do you feel about this expedition!" a small, kind-eyed old man said, "Hehe!" said to He Xiong with a smile. This person is He Ding, the contemporary steward of the He family.
"I'm sorry! This operation failed to embarrass you!" It seemed that He Xiong had not yet come out of the shadow of the failure of the expedition at this time, and looked at He Ding with a blank face and said.
"I've heard a few about your operation, too. The problem with this failure is not you! The chances of success are not very high. Just come back safely. But you can't just let this defeat slump!" He Ding was obviously not very satisfied with He Xiong's state in this matter, but he still said gently.
"The enemy I encountered this time was too strong! He Xiong said with his head down.
"What an accident! You would say something like that!" said He Ding's voice at the end, and suddenly became stern.
"I heard that you were the first to quit in the competition with Lin Ba and Xue Wuye. He Ding looked at He Xiong and said coldly. Facing He Ding's words, He Xiong didn't dare to look up at him.
"Although your competition with Lin Ba and Xue Wuye is not an official competition. But it has already had an impact on the prestige of our family. He Ding continued.
"It's me who is useless! I failed to keep the glory of the family!" He Xiong knelt on the ground and said to He Ding.
He Ding paused for a moment and said, "I didn't ask you to come here this time, I wanted you to become stronger." ”
He Ding paused for a moment and then asked, "Do you know how our He family's exercises are different from those of other families?"
Hearing this, He Xiong was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said, "This! Our family's exercises are indeed different from those of other families. But I just can't tell what's different!"
He Xiong has always felt that the exercises of the He family are very different from those of other families. But I just can't find what the problem is.
He Ding continued to ask, "Does it feel out of place with other exercises?"
Hearing He Ding's words, He Xiong hurriedly said, "Yes! That's what it feels like!"
"The practice of other families is to improve one's own cultivation by constantly cultivating one's own body. And improve the strength. But our family's practice requires the creation of powerful weapons, and the stronger the weapon, the stronger the strength. But it's not easy to get a powerful weapon. Therefore, the children of our family can quickly improve their own strength through the help of weapons in the early stage of cultivation. But if you want to improve your strength in the later stage, it will be even more difficult. ”
At this time, He Ding's eyes were full of determination when he looked at He Xiong, and he continued: "You are not young now! ”
He Ding has always cared for He Xiong, although on the surface he did not show it. But in my heart, I love this honest, but not lacking clever He Xiong.
"Actually, our family didn't make a living by forging weapons before. We are the descendants of wandering warlocks, that is, people who specialize in divining the future for people!" Hearing this, He Xiong was greatly surprised and asked, "Wandering warlocks!"
"Oh, don't be surprised! Our family's divination method is very different from that of other diviners. It can be said to be unique, and by entering the "Phantom Path" to check the future and past things, it can be counted as a seven-nine-ten, so it is also well-known in the divination world. But suddenly one day, this "Illusion" has changed. Our ancestors could no longer see the future and the past through this "Illusory Path", and what surprised them even more was that they went to another world through "Illusory Path". In the years that followed, our ancestors often traveled to and from that world, and over time learned how to forge weapons in that world. Not only that, but our ancestors traveled to other worlds through "Fantasy Road", and found many incredible weapons in those worlds. It can be said that the so-called weapons created by our family. Not of this world at all. In other words, our He family's exercises don't belong to this world at all!"
At this time, He Xiong, who was on the side, was dumbfounded, he couldn't imagine that there would be such a thing in the world. But He Xiong's surprise was not over, and what He Ding said next surprised him even more.
He Ding continued: "In fact, there is one thing that has been unsettling our family ancestors over the years. Because when the "Phantom Path" changed that year, the mysterious rebel suddenly appeared in this world. And that's not all. Whenever there is a strong person in the rebel race, some subtle changes will occur in "Fantasy Path". Moreover, at this time, we can find powerful weapons in "Phantom". It's as if someone arranged it on purpose. Maybe this is a coincidence, maybe this world secret may be in "Phantom Road". ”
After speaking, He Ding exhaled deeply. There seem to be many different emotions in this sigh.
"Do you want me to go to the Phantom Road and find out the secret of the rebel clan?" After hearing this shocking secret, He Xiong calmed down and asked.
"No! I want you to go to Phantom to find a more powerful weapon. He Ding shook his head and said.
"Why don't we share this secret with them. How about finding a way to deal with the rebels as soon as possible? This battle has already left us with so much to lose. We're going to end this fight!" asked He Xiong, puzzled.
"The world has reached this point where it is beyond the control of all of us. Ending the fight is no longer something that anyone can control. Even if we can find out the secrets of the rebels. There's not much we can do. And each family and sect has its own secrets to a greater or lesser extent. What we need to do now is not to find the secret of the rebels, but to strengthen our strength. The situation is not as simple as you think. You'll learn how much it counts. He Ding looked at the high-spirited He Xiong in front of him and said lightly. He really hoped that He Xiong would understand his thoughts.
He Xiong was silent for a while and said, "What do you want me to do?
"Okay! Tomorrow you will go with me to the world of "Illusion" to find more powerful weapons! Our family needs these weapons! This world maybe..."
After a pause, He Ding continued, "You can go back first today. Come to me tomorrow at this time. After saying that, He Ding walked out of the secret room, and then He Xiong also walked out behind He Ding. (To be continued......)
