Zhutian: From Douluo, the illusion becomes real

Chapter 722 721. Journey to the South (Part 1)

"Discover it on your own?"

Do you even believe what you're saying?

Wang Quanbaye did not speak.

These words were spoken by Li Quzhuo.

Although he was not a member of the Wangquan family and did not know the Wangquan Sword Intent, he was very clear about what the Wangquan Sword Intent meant to the Wangquan family. It was a unique skill that was on par with the Heaven and Earth Sword, and it also had extremely high requirements for the practitioner's own conditions.

Even if someone teaches you.

Even if someone provides guidance.

Those who can learn it are still extremely rare.

Not to mention that without anyone to teach or guide you, you have to rely entirely on your own understanding.

Therefore, in Li Quzhuo's view...

The lie told by the other party was hardly well thought out.

It even has the suspicion of insulting their intelligence.

But Ye Qingcang didn't mean to insult anyone's intelligence. Looking at Li Quzhuo, who was still acting all loud and boisterous, and after imagining the future Li Quzhuo in the original story, who was full of bitterness and had his legs crippled, he asked with great interest: "Wangquan Sword Intent is a technique created by Wangquan Wumu. Before Wangquan Wumu was born, the Wangquan family did not have this unique skill. Naturally, Wangquan Wumu had no way to find someone to teach or instruct him. In fact, he didn't even have any knowledge to draw upon. So, have you ever thought about how he came to be on this path?"

Li Quzhuo instinctively wanted to refute.

Embarrassingly, after careful consideration, he discovered that the other party was right. As the creator of the Wangquan Sword Intent, there was only one logical explanation: Wangquan Wumu comprehended the Wangquan Sword Intent on his own, and then compiled this unique skill into a book, which was passed down and became the unique skill of the Wangquan family.

Since royal power is not bound by twilight.

Then, naturally the other party can too.

Although he didn't think the young man opposite him could compare to Wang Quan Wu Mu.

But he also cannot deny this possibility.

This includes, but is not limited to, the other party.

Anyone has the chance to comprehend a unique skill on their own.

Using this as evidence to determine the nature of the leak of a secret technique is far-fetched, even for the Xiao family, who are adept at fabricating charges.

on the other hand.

If someone could truly steal the unique manual on how to cultivate the Wangquan Sword Intent without the Wangquan family's knowledge and begin to master it without guidance, firstly, their cultivation level and realm must be terrifyingly high, at least at the Demon Emperor level. After all, the Wangquan family has Wangquan Shouzhuo, a half-step Demon Emperor, and Wangquan Fei Lao, a powerhouse comparable to a Great Demon King, who might not even lose to Black Donkey Azhu. No joke, even if Huandu Qingtian infiltrated the Wangquan family, there's a chance he'd be discovered. And once he's away from this small corner of the Southern Kingdom, Huandu Qingtian wouldn't be able to mobilize the power of heaven and earth. In fact, he might not be able to defeat Wangquan Shouzhuo and the other members of the Wangquan family because he would lose his infinite mana bar. This is why Demon Emperors rarely act personally. Secondly, the person's comprehension must also be terrifyingly high. It's entirely possible that they could complete the deduction on their own without obtaining the unique manual on the Wangquan Sword Intent. There's no need to go through the trouble of infiltrating the Wangquan family, since choosing to infiltrate the Wangquan family is inherently dangerous.

Therefore, after eliminating all the impossibilities.

No matter how outrageous the remaining possibilities may be.

All of these can only be the single truth.

Therefore, Li Quzhuo had no choice but to keep quiet.

In other words, since there is no way to turn the situation in your favor, don't speak recklessly and hand the advantage to the other side.

But that's why.

That's because everyone can understand this point.

That's why it's puzzling.

After all, although Wang Quan Jingxing cannot be called a human being and has even distorted part of history, Wang Quan Wumu's talent is still acknowledged. The reason why Fan Yunfei's reputation among the One Qi Dao Alliance is so low is also related to Wang Quan Jingxing's distortion of history. Because Wang Quan Jingxing pinned the blame for Wang Quan Wumu's death on Fan Yunfei, resulting in Fan Yunfei being recorded in the One Qi Dao Alliance's history as having first killed Wang Quan Jingxing's son, and then Wang Quan Jingxing avenging his son, but he was no match for Fan Yunfei and was killed by him. It can be said that he ascended to the position of Demon Emperor by stepping on the face of the Wang Quan family and the One Qi Dao Alliance, which is bound to arouse public resentment. In fact, even the demons of the Western Regions believed this and rampaged through human territory, burning, killing, looting and committing all kinds of evil. Although there were some good demons, the general environment was like this.

Beishan implemented a disguised form of isolationism.

If two are chosen from among those killed, then there must be some innocent people involved.

One in ten is about right.

The situation in the south is much more severe than in the north.

It's probably three out of ten or four out of ten.

But overall, there are still more good demons.

Needless to say, Tushan is even better. Thanks to the reincarnation of the Bitter Love Tree, the monsters in Tushan are mostly good monsters. Although they are not particularly friendly to humans, they can still keep to themselves. In fact, if some monsters who have committed crimes want to escape to Tushan for refuge, Tushan will refuse to accept them, in order to ensure the safety of the monsters and reincarnations within Tushan as much as possible.

It's not an exaggeration to say that one in ten thousand is the best.

But this didn't work in the Western Regions.

Because Wang Quanjingxing had committed massacres here.

Because Wang Quan Wumu died right before Fan Yunfei's eyes.

For those involved, they are very clear about the cause of the conflict.

But outsiders wouldn't know that.

The demons of the Western Regions believed that blood debts should be repaid in blood.

The human race also fully approves of this.

Thus, the two sides were locked in a fierce battle, and the conflict has continued to this day.

However, the demons of the Western Regions have one advantage.

That is, they possess the ability to both attack and defend.

If we can defeat them, we'll invade the human race.

If we can't win, we can retreat to the Western Regions.

Because the Western Regions are guarded by a demon emperor.

Ordinary human experts wouldn't dare to enter.

Fighting on someone else's territory, even disregarding the Demon Emperor's authority—which is limited to 30% of the power of heaven and earth—gives the Demon Emperor, the master of this place, a significant advantage. Furthermore, the Demon Emperor's ability to mobilize the power of heaven and earth is enough to crush anyone below the Demon Emperor level. Even if Dongfang Guyue and Wang Quan Shouzhuo were to arrive, they would still be unable to win, at best only able to ensure their own safe retreat. This is the current situation between the demon race and the human race.

Northern mountains, southern lands, western regions.

Both are essentially restricted areas.

All the demons knew that they didn't need to fear being chased by human Taoists. As long as they ran into these areas, they would be completely safe, just like entering a no-war zone. Even if there were many experts from the One Qi Alliance, they wouldn't dare to cross the border to capture and kill them.

Because no one can say for sure whether the Demon Emperor will patrol his territory like a street urchin and then suddenly appear at the border.

The most convincing example is Tu Shan Hong Hong.

Dongfang Yuechu stopped fleeing once he reached the Tushan territory.

Ximen Chuisha and his group wanted to take the risk and make a move.

Then, by sheer coincidence, they encountered Tu Shan Hong Hong.

He was punched and kicked by Tu Shan Hong Hong.

Fortunately, Tu Shan Hong Hong was unwilling to see blood.

If it were any other demon emperor, Ximen Chuisha and the others would probably be long gone. They would either have been blown apart by Fan Yunfei's sand and turned into ashes, or corroded by Huandu Qingtian's poison and turned into a pool of corpse water, or had their heads smashed by Shi Kuan's punch and buried in the wasteland of Beishan, turning into fertilizer to increase Beishan's grain production in the coming year.

Therefore, it is absolutely not an exaggeration to say that many monsters in the Western Regions are killed seven out of ten times.

However, the human race advocates not judging heroes by success or failure.

Wang Quan Wumu is indeed dead.

However, Wang Quan Wu Mu's talent is still undeniable.

Therefore, to say that someone can rival Wang Quan Wu Mu, even a direct descendant of the Wang Quan family, would be met with skepticism, let alone outsiders; questioning their abilities is instinctive. Moreover, even if your comprehension is comparable to Wang Quan Wu Mu's...

Why did you comprehend the King's Sword Intent instead of other ultimate techniques?
Wang Quanba pushed up his mask and sighed.

Although he often says that wearing a mask means temporarily abandoning one's original identity, that is, there is only Mr. Sword of the Masked Organization and no one, Wang Quan Baye, the eldest son of the Wang Quan family, some things cannot be distinguished so clearly.

It was as if someone had unleashed a heaven-and-earth sword strike right in front of him.

How could he not investigate the source?
Ultimately, he grew up eating the rice and noodles of the Wangquan family and enjoyed everything the Wangquan family gave him, including but not limited to various top-notch treatments. How could he possibly act against his own principles?

Therefore, after a moment's hesitation...

He still chose to take off his mask.

He cupped his hands to Ye Qingcang and introduced himself, saying, "My name is Wang Quan Baye. I have no intention of making enemies with friends. However, the Wang Quan Sword Intent is of great importance. I would like to ask you to explain where your Wang Quan Sword Intent comes from."

"You have heard my explanation."

Whether you believe it or not is up to you, not me.

"Same reason."

"What you want to do is up to you, not me."

"of course."

"You need to be mentally prepared to bear the consequences."

"It's that simple."

Ye Qingcang waved his hand, skipping over the question.

Then, he looked at Ximen Chuisha.

He had absolutely no liking for Ximen Chuisha.

Everyone has moments of youthful arrogance, even someone like Shi Tang, who loves to show off. In the original story, he pointed his sword at the young pageboy upon first meeting him, which was merely a minor transgression and not a major offense. After all, in Dongfang Yuechu's era, Shi Tang had already become one of the top experts of the Yi Qi Dao Alliance, comparable to Wang Quan Fei Lao. Chi Huo was the same; after his trip to the Southern Kingdom, he suddenly realized his mistakes and returned home. Both were young people of good character. However, the praise of "a prodigal son returning home is more valuable than gold" should be given to Wen Bolin, the eldest son of the Wen family. He was defeated by Yang Yitan after Yang Yitan used his Heavenly Eye to replicate his family's ultimate technique, Nine Heavens Universal Transformation Divine Thunder, and became a laughingstock of the Yi Qi Dao Alliance. After being taught a lesson by Yang Yitan, he learned from his shame and became brave. In Dongfang Yuechu's era, he became one of the top experts of the Yi Qi Dao Alliance, similar to Chi Huo and Shi Tang, and became one of the pillars of the Yi Qi Dao Alliance.

This also shows just how much of a loss the Masked Gang suffered outside the circle was for the One Qi Dao Alliance and the human race.

If the masked group had not been damaged.

In the future, it can be said that everyone will be at least half a step into the Demon Emperor realm.

At the very least, they can reach the level of Dongfang Guyue or even Wang Quan Shouzhuo.

Its potential ceiling could even reach the level of a Demon Emperor.

Don’t say anything else.

Wang Quanbaye, Li Zizai, Yang Yitan, Zhang Zheng.

These four people have a chance of becoming the Demon Emperor.

If Dongfang Huaizhu were not a woman.

There is also a chance of becoming a demon emperor.

Unfortunately, there are no "what ifs" in life.

A trip outside the circle.

The One Qi Dao Alliance was directly discontinued.

Fortunately, Wang Quanba was the eldest son of the Wang Quan family.

He was the only son of the Wang Quan family after Wang Quan died of drunkenness.

Otherwise, the elders of other powerful families would definitely be so angry that they would join forces to kill Wang Quanbaye. After all, their family had waited hundreds of years for a promising talent to appear, and he died under your leadership. If you also died, we would at most curse you a few times, but you came back alive, and the Li family's boy was crippled. What face do you have to live in this world?
The shattering of Wang Quanbaye's sword heart is perfectly reasonable.

To put it bluntly, he can accept failure.

But he cannot accept that his brothers died because of him.

He felt guilty for betraying the trust his brothers had placed in him.

I have no idea how to face this fact.

Regardless, all those present were promising young people or teenagers, because Chi Huo and Shi Tang were older, over twenty years old, though not much younger than Jin Renfeng.

In short, Ye Qingcang was patient in talking to these people.

Furthermore, tolerate the other party's occasional rash actions.

But Ximen Chuisha was different.

This guy later went on to hunt down Dongfang Yuechu.

If he hadn't participated in the Southern Journey in the original story, frankly, he wouldn't have been a big deal; you could just consider him a villain. But he did participate in the Southern Journey in the original story and met Dongfang Qinlan. Although he refused to join a noble family in a fit of anger because his legs were crippled, and chose to become a wandering cultivator, he and Dongfang Qinlan and the others were, after all, old acquaintances.

He even dared to hunt down and kill the son of an old friend.

This practice is utterly despicable.

Although Jin Renfeng was very powerful at the time.

It will be very difficult to protect Dongfang Yuechu.

But you can choose not to do anything and just watch from the sidelines, right?

To put it bluntly, it's about pretending not to see it.

After all, you and Dongfang Qinlan only crossed paths during your trip to the South, which was like a fleeting encounter. Your relationship wasn't particularly deep. Asking you to risk being targeted by Jin Renfeng to protect Dongfang Yuechu is really asking too much of a question and goes against your interests.

But ignoring it shouldn't be difficult.

Moreover, your conditions are different from those of Wang Quanba and others.

Wang Quanba and others were limited by their status.

There is no way to take action.

Putting aside everything else, even the assassination attempt on Jin Renfeng was carried out in a furtive manner.

This means that the public order still needs to be maintained by everyone.

But you are just a rogue cultivator.

Is it really that difficult to release Dongfang Yuechu's horse?

In addition, Ximen Chuisha repeatedly stirred up trouble.

It would be truly inexcusable not to teach them a lesson.

Of course, he did not intend to add Ximen Chuisha's future sins to the present moment; he simply said that he chose not to forgive Ximen Chuisha.

It's that simple.

However, Ximen Chuisha was clearly not going to sit idly by and wait for his doom.

Although he knew very well that he couldn't defeat this boy whose name he didn't know until now, because he, Chi Huo, and Shi Tang had previously fought against Wang Quan Ba ​​Ye and lost, and Wang Quan Ba ​​Ye had also lost when he faced this boy just now, he could calculate how much chance he had of winning. But lying down was obviously not an option; he had to at least try to minimize the injuries he would suffer.

However, right now.

A peculiar fluctuation of demonic power suddenly flickered.

Caught everyone's attention.
