Chapter 779: Chapter 777-planning
Naturally, Fang ping did not know how the Jiao and the other demons were doing.
On the 7th of December, Fang ping returned to mcmau.
This time, Fang ping was not in a hurry to go to the catacombs. He had just broken through rank-8 and seventh refined, so he did not have time to rest these days.
After taking a short break in mcmau for a few days, Fang ping was ready to leave for Magic city"s catacombs.
……
12th of December.
The weather was getting colder.
In the air, the cold wind whistled.
Fang ping, warlord, and Jiang Chao took flight together and headed to Saturn city. Zhang Tao had once again come to Magic City to hold the fort.
The three of them flew through the air.
Looking down at the ground, battle King sighed with emotion and chuckled,""When star suppression city was built, it was different from now. There were no skysc.r.a.pers at that time ..."
As he spoke, warlord looked at the plane that was flying away above his head. He smiled again and said,""I feel like we"ve already been eliminated by the times. I haven"t been back much in the past few years at Mount Yuhai, and when I come back ... Things remain the same, but people have changed. "
Zhan w.a.n.g sighed."When we built Saturn city, we might have had the same thought. No matter how the outside world develops, at least we can leave a familiar place. We won"t have to leave the catacombs again. The world has changed."
300 years had pa.s.sed, and everything was different from before.
Fang ping laughed. After some thought, he asked,"Senior, was it the Heavenly King who organized your people to build the city?"
Zhan w.a.n.g fell into deep thought. After a while, he said softly,""He"s the one who organized it. " 300 years ago, there was actually a catacombs pa.s.sageway that opened, but we knew nothing at that time. There were many things that we were unclear about. We didn"t even know who we were or what the catacombs were ...
Back then, the Heavenly King found us and organized us ..."
Fang ping listened for a while, then asked curiously,"you were on earth back then?" And not the catacombs?"
"It"s earth. "
"Of course!" Warlord chuckled."We were all on earth at that time, not the catacombs. However, we don"t have any memories, no past, no future ... We just have power, and we don"t even know how to control it. We almost caused a disaster!
Actually, many a time ... We"ve been suspecting if we"re really human. "
Fang Ping"s gaze changed slightly.
The battle King laughed again."After all, we"re also in the absolute beginning realm. In the past hundreds of years, we"ve actually had some guesses about many things. We might just be the immortal part of some who have fallen, and that"s why we"ve lost everything. "
"Whether we"re self-resurrected or artificially resurrected, these ... Are actually more likely to be man-made."
At this moment, the WarG.o.d was in the mood to talk. He looked at Fang ping and said slowly,"Some people might have guessed that it was the old man from the Li family who revived us, but in reality, I don"t think so. The one who revived us ... Could be those old fogeys from the precinct!"
Fang ping had a strange look on his face, but he did not speak.
"It"s very likely!"Zhan w.a.n.g smiled. "In order to prevent the powerhouses from the catacombs from entering the precinct and disturbing their rest, the old geezer of the precinct awakened us. We are actually the gatekeepers of the precinct.
Maybe not all 13 paragons in Star Town City think so, but some of them ... I think so!"
Zhan w.a.n.g said with a smile,""There are still eight intact inter-world lands, so out of the 13 of us, at least eight of us are actually from the inter-world lands, and we are their gatekeepers!
Including me, I am the same!
"As for me, it"s very likely that I"m from Mount Amethyst. Back then, I might have been a member of Mount Amethyst. That"s why I"ve been revived and started to guard the precinct, not allowing the catacombs powerhouses to enter."
"You"re from Mount Zi Gai?"
Fang ping was a little surprised, but he also felt that it was only natural.
Indeed, people like the WarG.o.d could very well be from the precinct. Since the WarG.o.d had always been guarding the Nanjiang catacombs, it was very likely that he was from Mount Amethyst.
Battle King continued,"we don"t know the other paragons in star suppression city, including that old man from the Li family. We don"t know what"s going on." They won"t say that it"s impossible to know if everyone has lost their memories and everything. "
"But there"s one thing you might know," said the battle King after some thought,"about the Yang family!"
Zhan w.a.n.g took a deep breath and smiled. We actually have no connection with the boundary because we can"t enter, but the old man from the Li family once said that when the boundary is opened, we can go back!
Remember, go back, not go in!
We don"t know how he knows, but it"s possible that he"s connected to some old fogeys in the precinct.
The one from the Yang family had not made any progress for many years. Coincidentally, there was a strong pressure in the precinct. Perhaps it was the manifestation of an expert"s Dao of origin and mental energy ...
He might not have been able to resist the temptation and eventually entered the boundary. He probably wanted to devour or comprehend the other party"s origin Dao and become a top-notch expert among the paragons.
There was no way to judge whether it was true or not.
However, the old ghost of the Yang family died in the realm, in the Xuling heavenly cave!"
Battle King"s eyes were a little strange."I don"t know why this is happening. Maybe the old man from the Yang family is greedy. The other party is not dead yet, and he wants to devour the other party."
Maybe ... We shouldn"t have entered, or maybe the old man from the Yang family found out some secrets and killed us!
"Fang ping, those guys in the precinct have complicated thoughts. They can even kill paragons!
Perhaps he had borrowed some of the arrangements in the realmland to achieve this. Perhaps ... The existences in the realmland were all very powerful, and they were even left behind by the most powerful group of people in the realmland!
That"s why they have the capital to kill those at the peak. The one from the Yang family is not strong, and he is considered weak among those at the peak. It"s not surprising that he was suppressed and killed after entering the other party"s territory. "
"As for the old man from the Li family ..." Zhan w.a.n.g continued,"he"s either a representative from the precinct or an Overlord of one of the territories!"
Zhan w.a.n.g was deep in thought. He smiled and said,"it"s very likely that he"s the spokesperson pushed out by the precinct. All of us were organized by him. He knows a lot, including some things about the precinct, including us guarding the mountain of resisting sea ... He told us all of this!
"Or perhaps, he"s just one of the overlords of one of the realms. He has awakened in advance and connected all the major realms. Perhaps our recovery is also led by him, and he needs a group of helpers!
All in all, this matter is very complicated, and he wouldn"t say anything even if I asked. "
"Senior, is there no one who is unwilling to let the Heavenly King of suppression organize everyone to guard mount calming sea?" Fang ping interjected.
"Of course!"
Zhan w.a.n.g reminisced about the past and said slowly,""If a person you"ve never seen before suddenly tells you that your responsibility is to guard mount Royal sea, will you agree? Would he agree?
There were many people who disagreed!
But you don"t understand the situation back then.
We are a group of people who have no past or future. We are at a loss and don"t know what to do about everything.
"He told us that it is our responsibility to guard mount calming sea. In the end, we will know all the causes and effects, including our past.
Should he go to Mount Yuhai or not?
Some people were unwilling to go, but it had to be said that the old man from the Li clan had many tricks up his sleeve. In short, under his instigation and deception ... We all ended up going to the Royal Sea Mountain.
Of course, there"s a time difference in between. By that time, we"ll have our own families and careers, married and had children. We"ll have our own families and relatives. "
"A group of people who don"t know the past and the future," the battle King said."They care the most about having offspring."
Zhan w.a.n.g glanced at little fatty, who was listening attentively, and chuckled.""With the inheritance of the bloodline, we feel that we are really living like humans and not just pa.s.sersby in life!
"The Li family also played a part in this. He schemed a lot, including our lives. He guided many things in the dark.
He had a clan, a bloodline, and his ... Brainwas.h.i.+ng ....
In short, in the end, everyone went to the Royal Sea Mountain.
On this trip, he would be considered to have boarded a pirate s.h.i.+p.
"The moment we go to Mount calming sea, we"ll be fighting with the catacombs "true Kings. By then, we"ll have no way out."
Fang ping asked curiously,"at that time, everyone knew that it was very dangerous. Did no one want to leave?"
"There are!"
"Of course!" Warlord laughed again. "This is the first time I"ve fought a true king of the catacombs and I"ve already suffered a huge loss. I keep feeling that this deal is not worth it. I"m done. Let"s just disband."
I"m a top expert. The world is so big, where can i not go?
At most, he would leave the catacombs and bring his family to find a place to live in seclusion. Why did he have to suffer in Mount Yuhai and risk his life for others?
However, there were some things that were difficult to make such a decision even if you knew it.
"Like I said, when the old ghost of the Li family found us, we were all blank and didn"t understand anything.
"He"s actually our master. He taught us martial arts, combat techniques, and everything we had back then was all given to us by him.
When we were about to split up, he would come at us together like a carrot and a stick.
"The future is beautiful. If we give up now and leave, not only will we become enemies with them, but they will also no longer protect our family and children. If you want to leave, you can find a place to stay in the catacombs. Or, you can just leave earth and never come back.
If you want to enjoy life on Earth, that won"t do, then you have to put in some effort!"
"I"m letting you guys stay just like that?"Fang ping asked, puzzled.
"It"s not just that,"
"You should know one thing," battle King continued."When a warrior reaches this level, they all want to improve. "No one is willing to remain stagnant. The reason why the old ghost of the Li family tempted us is also related to this.
Do you want to continue improving your strength?
Do you want to continue to become stronger?
Then he would continue to guard mount Royal sea!
Just like that, he dragged on and on ... Over a hundred years pa.s.sed.
"During this period, we"ve fought with the true Kings of the catacombs many times, and we"ve formed a death feud. By then, it was actually impossible for us to retreat.
Some of our family members died at the Royal Sea Mountain...I"ve always suspected that the old ghost of the Li clan did this on purpose!"
Battle King said fiercely,"that guy is afraid that we will run away, so he wants us to make a deadly enemy of him. I"ve told you, we value our descendants very much. Because we don"t have a past life, the existence of the bloodline of our descendants allows us to live like humans!"
My son and daughter died in battle, and my wife died in battle. How can I not think of revenge?"
"Also, the wives we married back then were most likely arranged by that old ghost from the Li family!" You also know that we"re both noobs in the beginning. What do we know about love?
There"s a woman who cares for you and takes care of you. How can you not be F * cking moved?
Where did these women come from?
Of course, even if we knew, we didn"t care about it at that time. Later on, these women died in battle...Hmph, it might have been incited by the Li family"s old man, or he simply gave the order!"
Fang ping suddenly sympathized with the WarG.o.d. He said softly,"In that case, Heavenly King Zhen is in control of the fate of all the seniors, and you have never complained about it?"
"Resentment?"
"Yes," Zhan w.a.n.g said with a faint smile,"I did ... But this old ghost ... Let"s put it this way. He"s a little similar to Zhang Tao."
Let me ask you, do you hate Zhang Tao?
He gave us most of what we have, so some things are hard to explain. "
Fang ping muttered to himself, then said after a moment,"What is the Heavenly King"s goal? Protect humanity? Guarding the world? Or something else?"
"Who knows?"
"Not only him," battle King said indifferently."There are a few others who may not be the same as us." What was their goal? Who would know! I"ve said it before, out of the 13 paragons, there are probably less than 10 paragons in the boundary region.
Therefore, the remaining few people might have some tacit understanding with old ghost li.
"There were a few times when we wanted to disband. Actually, it wasn"t just old ghost li who disagreed. The remaining 12 of us also had different opinions. I"m afraid that some of us were hired by old ghost li."
"These are the people from different periods of time that senior mentioned?"
"Probably."
"Probably," Zhan w.a.n.g laughed."They are older than us anyway!" We"re just blank papers. Even though we"ve been here for hundreds of years and have some experience, we"re still far from them. "
"If that"s the case, then the Heavenly King suppression should know about the brain core cultivation method and even the exclusive spiritual power cultivation method. Why wasn"t it pa.s.sed down?"
Fang ping asked this question. He had been holding this question in for a long time.
Zhan w.a.n.g pondered for a moment and said,"maybe it"s a tacit understanding, or a rule!" Some things, in their eyes, might not be allowed to be spread. Of course, there were some situations that he didn"t know about.
This old geezer, who knows if he"s a resurrected martial artist or someone who"s always been alive.
If he"s a resurrected martial artist, then it"s normal that he doesn"t know. "
"Senior, why are you willing to tell me so much today?"
Fang ping asked. These paragons had never liked to talk much.
If you ask about some confidential information, it"s useless for you to know it. It will only increase the pressure.
In short, he just didn"t say it, as if it would have the opposite effect if he knew.
Just a few days ago, when Fang ping had asked about this, the WarG.o.d had not mentioned much.
But now, the battle King had told him many things.
"Why?"
"There"s no reason," Zhan w.a.n.g said with a smile."It"s not a big secret. Besides, some things are almost open to the public now. Do you really think that Zhang Tao knows nothing?
No, he knew a lot of things!
Zhang Tao actually knew more than Li Zhen, but he just didn"t say it.
"Zhang Tao doesn"t trust us. He knows some things, but he keeps them to himself and thinks of a way to solve them.
Do you know why Zhang Tao improved so quickly?
There were many reasons!
Don"t mention that monster plant, a monster plant isn"t enough to make him so ..."
"He has as many secrets as you do," Zhan w.a.n.g said with a smile."When Zhang Tao was young, he had a lot of great opportunities! He has also entered the realm!"
Fang Ping"s gaze flickered. Zhang Tao had also entered the precinct?
Warlord laughed again and said,"this guy is the number one person in the new martial era! He was fully deserving of the t.i.tle of number one! Not only had he been to the boundary lands, but he had also been to the forbidden Sea. He had been to many places and had even obtained some opportunities in the forbidden Sea!
This guy was not afraid of death when he was young. He dared to go anywhere!
Do you really think he knows nothing about the penalty area?
Then you"re wrong!
He was very courageous and had even barged into the Forbidden Zone before. He had also been to the king"s battlefield, and he was even on very good terms with experts from some imperial dynasties and divine sects!
Can you believe it?"
The battle King laughed."He"s been planning this for a long time. A long time ago, before he became a Paragon, he brought back some catacombs humans from the outer region to train. He"s been training them since young!
When they grew up, this guy would send them back to the outer area and use the outer area to enter the forbidden area!
They even sent him directly to the Royal Sea Mountain and began to explore the restricted area.
Do you really think he doesn"t know anything about the penalty area?
Then you"re wrong!
He had many eyes and ears in the Forbidden Zone. Even if some people betrayed him and some people no longer contacted him, there were still many people who were in contact with him ... Of course, unless it was a critical moment, you wouldn"t know which people were his people.
Do you know that before this, the Forbidden City catacombs was the Wu an Army"s territory? it was his territory alone, and no one was allowed to enter!
He actually had a plan in the Forbidden City"s underground cave.
Even the destruction of the Forbidden City catacombs could have been done to silence them and destroy evidence. He had managed the Forbidden City catacombs for so many years, so how could he not have any backup plans?
This guy was really sinister.
Even the old ghost from the Li family once said that Zhang Tao was born in the wrong era. If it was another era, this fellow would probably have the chance to become an Emperor. "
Fang ping furrowed his brows slightly and said,"it"s not wrong for the Minister to plan ahead and make some preparations." However, it shouldn"t be of much use, right? Even if he sends a few of them into the Forbidden Zone, they"ll probably only be at the level of the Dao of essence at most. They won"t be of any use. "
"It can"t play a key role?"
Zhan w.a.n.g laughed and said indifferently,"how do you know it won"t work?" Everything was possible! "Also...Don"t underestimate Zhang Tao. This fellow"s ability to delude people"s hearts is not small. Other things aside, among the true Kings of the catacombs ... It"s not like he doesn"t have any allies!"
"What?"
Fang ping was shocked. How was that possible?!
"Don"t look at me like that,"
Zhan w.a.n.g smiled and said,"there"s a possibility!" He didn"t oversee the defensive Sea Mountain, but he would often patrol the mountain. He had seen many true Kings, and some had fought with him, some had come into contact with him, and some had even chatted and laughed with him, drinking and discussing Dao together!
"Don"t think that the true Kings of the catacombs are bent on invading the human world, and that some weak apex existences really want to invade the human world?
That might not be the case!
If Zhang Tao were to bewitch him, he might gain something. "
As the WarG.o.d spoke, he saw Jiang Chao and Fang Ping"s dumbfounded expressions and continued to laugh. "Let"s put it this way. About seven or eight years ago, I think Zhang Tao went to the forbidden Sea once. At that time, there were also true Kings of the catacombs who went to the forbidden Sea.
We don"t know the exact details. The only thing we know is that the true monarchs who returned didn"t appear in the area of the defensive Sea Mountain after that.
No one knows what happened in between ..."
"You"re saying that he made some sort of agreement with those true Kings?"
"The possibility is very high!"
"So, don"t underestimate Zhang Tao," Zhan w.a.n.g laughed again. To be honest, even if a full-scale war broke out now, the humans might still have a chance of winning! This guy said that the humans were in danger ... Was it really dangerous?
Not only him, but the old ghost from the Li family was also the same!
Let"s put it this way. In the past thousand years, there had been three leaders in the human race, and all of them came from China.
Devil Emperor Mo Wen sword, heavenly suppression King Li Kuai, and martial King Zhang Tao.
Mo Wen sword might not be comparable to the two behind him. Mo Wen sword could not be considered to have created an era, but these two had created an era!
"Although the neo martial era was founded by both Shen and Chen, the one who really brought the neo martial era to glory was Zhang Tao. He is the soul and core of the neo martial era, and also the most outstanding pride of this era!"
Fang Ping"s eyebrows twitched slightly. He said again,"senior, first you talked to me about Saturn city. Now you"re talking about department head Zhang. Do you want to talk to Fang ping about something?"
"It"s nothing," Zhan w.a.n.g chuckled."I just wanted to tell you that everyone has their own plans! Everyone"s main goal was the same, which was to survive the current crisis.
But what about after the crisis?
In addition, this race crisis wasn"t just a race crisis, there were also some other messy factors entangled in it.
It might even involve the schemes of some ancient powerhouses. In short, if one didn"t want to be a chess piece, then they had to be a chess player!
And this required strength and influence!
"You"ve actually made the right choice by increasing mcmau"s strength.
"If mcmau produces a few paragons, then when danger comes, there will still be people who are worthy of trust!
And this time ... It"s actually an opportunity!"
"This time, we"ll take down Magic city"s catacombs, and mcmau will manage one! It wasn"t just one cave, it included the entire world! "Fang ping, the timing is perfect this time. I"m overseeing Magic city"s catacombs!
At the critical moment, if there was really a chance and the old ghost was still alive in the precinct, it was best to cooperate. If not ... He would find a way to kill the other party!
"Seize the precinct and find a way out for mcmau, as well as for the descendants of my Jiang clan!
The boundary was very dangerous. Even peak cultivators would face the danger of dying if they entered. They would not enter unless they had no choice!
However, if we can take down the precinct, then we can attack and retreat as we please, and we"ll have a real foothold!"
At this point, battle King finally revealed his purpose.
Fang ping was a little surprised. After a while, he said,"Senior, you mean ... You and I should cooperate? "No, the Jiang family and mcmau are working together?"
"Can"t I?"Zhan w.a.n.g asked with a smile. I"m not qualified? "Since everyone has their own plans, then let"s have our own plans. The mcmau of the past naturally did not have the qualifications to do so, and they were not even worthy of my attention!
But now ... That was hard to say.
Kid, not only the Jiang family, but also the SU family!
I have a good relations.h.i.+p with old ghost su. He is also a top expert among the paragons and is not weaker than me.
Let"s think of a way to escape together, and we"ll see if we can use it or not!
But we can"t pin all our hopes on others ..."
"There"s one more thing," the battle King said."The situation in the precinct is complicated. It"s not just the benefits you see, but they"re all superficial. The realm...Has always been Raising Demons, not just the ones inside the realm...But also the ones in the forbidden Sea!"
"I"m not sure," battle King said softly."Most rank-nine demons in the precinct will enter the forbidden Sea! These demons had always relied on the energy provided by the precinct to survive, including the imperishable substance ...
"Fang ping, do you really think that the energy restriction outside the boundary was an accident?
No, perhaps it was on purpose!
During specific times, energy tides would erupt and these demons would be raised. The demons in the world and the forbidden Sea ... Were not very intelligent.
At the critical moment, they might be controlled by the precinct!"
"Perhaps," the battle King said playfully."When the inter-world realm revives, those old fogeys might not have any disciples, but they might have a group of powerful demons under their command. That"s hard to say!
Also, who said that there were no disciples in the boundary?
Did they really die in battle?
Not necessarily!
How many worlds have you been to?
How many places have you been to?
Were there really only revived antiques in the lake of immortality?
"At that time, it"s not impossible for a group of powerhouses to emerge. I"m telling you all this to let you know ... When it"s time to leave a way out, you should leave one behind.
I don"t want you to end up all alone ..."
Fang ping did not say anything, but many thoughts were running through his mind.
Today"s battle King was a little different from the carefree and direct battle King in his impression.
However, it might really be necessary to take down a boundary.
The boundary region was very dangerous, but once one could control the boundary region, it was also the safest area.
Even paragons faced the danger of falling there, and usually, the strongest who entered would only be rank-9.
If he could really turn the precinct into mcmau"s back garden, there might be an unexpected surprise.
