Chapter 168 Insidious VS Cunning
"Are blade beasts the creations of spiritual practitioners?"
"Sorry, I can't answer."
"Are psykers intentionally infused with humans by a civilization of spiritual practitioners?"
"Sorry, I can't answer."
"You're kidding us, right?"
"Sorry, I...uh."
The shadowy old man saw the trace of black energy surrounding Wang Jixuan's sword finger and quickly changed his words:
"I am not playing tricks on you, please calm down, mysterious practitioners!
"What I must say is that I am just a gatekeeper who protects the inheritance. The information I have is limited, and some of the information cannot be revealed without the permission of the spiritual cultivator civilization, because I am just a gatekeeper.
"This is a...civilized encryption."
Wang Jixuan said leisurely: "Are you a gatekeeper or a spiritual practitioner? This needs to be verified by ourselves, rather than relying on your empty words."
"How could a powerful spiritual practitioner like me be coerced by you using such dirty spiritual energy?"
The phantom's face became clearer, and a bitter smile appeared on the old man's face as he continued:
"You can't understand me, just as I can't understand you.
"I am a false thinking body born based on the universal spiritual energy formula, a bit like the mechanical bodies created by several human civilizations over there.
"My mission is to guard this stone slab... You can actually enter the stone slab and take a look. When your hand touches the stone slab, I can lead your soul into it, and then you will understand everything I say."
"I won't go," Wang Jixuan refused decisively, "I can let my trusted teammates enter inside."
Zheng Shiduo stood up decisively.
He has been waiting for this opportunity for a long time!
As long as he can get in, he will be what Teacher Wang calls a ‘trusted teammate’!
Well, it seems like this isn’t actually too important... But now, it’s his turn to stand up!
"Sorry, he can't."
The shadowy old man directly refused:
"He is already the spiritual slave of other inheritance slates and has been marked with the inheritance of other spiritual practitioners. This breaks the rules and will also destroy the tacit understanding between spiritual practitioners.
"A spiritual slave is a spiritual slave. He can only serve, serve, and contribute to spiritual practitioners, but cannot accept the inheritance of spiritual practitioners.
"That's why I closed the door immediately after I found him."
"Spirit slave? Who?"
Zheng Shiduo pointed to his nose in surprise: "Me?"
The old man Xudan smiled slightly mockingly:
"It seems that your human civilization has not shared this part of the information. This is normal, human nature is like this, and the civilization of spiritual practitioners is also an advanced civilization developed similar to human civilization. These are all things I have the authority to disclose."
Wang Jixuan snorted: "Don't be pretentious and try not to use rhetoric."
The old man Xuying smiled bitterly: "It's really difficult to communicate with you, why do you reject this inheritance?"
Wang Jixuan's face turned cold: "Huh?"
The old man changed the subject and continued:
"The following is all the information I can reveal.
"The six stone slabs correspond to the inheritance of the six spiritual practitioners. These six inheritances are extremely key to you. After completing the entire inheritance ceremony, the six adults can wake up and save your planet. Inheritance is an extremely complicated matter.
thing.
"So far, you are the only one who has activated this inheritance stone that I am guarding.
"There are six stone slabs, each side has one hundred and twenty small stone slabs. When all the small stone slabs are put together, the gate of inheritance will be triggered by the right person.
"Before this, three inheritance tablets have been triggered, and I am the fourth.
"Moreover, the inheritors of the three-sided stone slabs have sensed my awakening at this moment, which may cause you some trouble."
Fu Jian suddenly said: "There is a riot in the Psychic City. They have sent out all the emergency forces and are rushing here, but don't worry."
"That's what I mean."
The old man Xuying looked at Wang Jixuan with a smile:
"So, you must now accept this inheritance, and even use as short a time as possible to obtain the inheritance mark and embark on the road of becoming a spiritual practitioner, so as to offset the pressure brought by the first three inheritance mark holders.
"Don't hesitate. This is your chance to move towards advanced civilization. Don't you want to gain more power? Mysterious practitioner."
"Of course I want to gain power, but..."
Wang Jixuan shook his head:
"I don't have to rely on charity from others.
"And in this short exchange, you told several lies."
"Lying?" The old man Xuying was a little confused, "Since I can refuse to answer you, why should I lie?"
"Do you think I will waste my time trying to figure out your thoughts?"
Daochang Wang's eyes were a little sharper, and he looked directly at the phantom old man:
"First, you are not a mechanical thinking body based on a universal formula.
"You are life, you are a soul, a incomplete soul, the aura contained within you.
"Secondly, as long as the hand touches the stone slab, it should be more than just the soul entering it.
"I sensed the power of space fluctuations.
"Obviously, letting the soul enter the spire is one way, and the other way is to let the whole body enter the spire.
"Third, what you just said about "Completing the inheritance" and "Awakening" are contradictory. Inheritance is to impart one's knowledge or ability, but you just mentioned "Awakening". There is a high probability that the six spiritual practitioners will get into some trouble.
Situation, right?
"You need some sacrifices? Or a new body?"
The phantom old man was silent, his face expressionless.
Wang Jixuan snapped his fingers and said calmly: "I no longer expect you to tell the truth. You just want to trick me into going in and then use the things inside to deal with me. Now, I will give you two choices..."
"No need."
The old man Xuying said coldly:
"You are more difficult to deal with than I thought.
"However, I didn't lie to you about one of the three things you said.
"You just wanted to get information from me, but you didn't think about making a contribution to me. My response to you with lies is a punishment for your insincerity.
"I didn't do anything wrong."
This old man suddenly gained a sense of dignity.
Wang Jixuan nodded: "That means there is no need to talk?"
"I will let the inheritance slate enter a period of silence to avoid being contaminated by you with this dirty, evil, and unknown spiritual energy!"
The shadowy old man stared at Wang Jixuan:
"I'm very curious about you, which is why I took the initiative to communicate with you.
"In fact, you missed a huge treasure, a treasure that can make you the master of the planet! You will become a sinner of this civilization and this planet!
"Since you reject my call, then this planet will just wait for death. You cannot fight the Blade Beast. You have no idea of the Blade Beast's true power."
The old man Xuying sneered and seemed to continue outputting, but his facial expression suddenly froze.
He turned his head suddenly and looked at the spire projected on the stone wall behind him.
In the steeple, a wisp of black energy was flying up and down. It seemed to be...a dragon...
"What did you do! Damn it!"
He roared, and his body turned into a beam of light and hit the spire, and all the light on the stone slab quickly faded away.
Before Wang Jixuan could react, the stone wall itself suddenly disintegrated into rectangular blocks and fell freely to the ground.
Is this the so-called silent cycle?
There was no response to the injection of spiritual energy.
A stream of black energy suspended in the air, condensed into a half-meter-long dragon, and returned to Wang Jixuan's shoulder.
Taoist Wang clicked his tongue with some regret: "It's a pity, I only saw a little something."
Director Chen quickly asked: "What did you see?"
"It's very complicated," Wang Jixuan looked at Fu Jian, who immediately understood.
