Starting with a Wasted Spiritual Root to Embark on Demonic Cultivation

On the day of his spiritual root test, he was found to possess a fifth-grade root. In this lifetime, it would be nearly impossible to break through the Mid Qi Refining stage.

The immortal sec...

Chapter 309 Recreating the Scenario and Deducing the Situation

Chapter 309 Recreating the Scenario and Deducing the Situation

"Fu Xiao is coming back."

Zhuo Shouqing paused for a moment before speaking.

"This person must have learned of your existence and regarded you as an opportunity to condense into a Nascent Soul. He has been traveling in the Vermilion Bird Divine Mountain for decades without any success."

He was seen as a golden opportunity for Nascent Soul formation...

It is likely for the so-called acquired demonic fetus body, which is also a kind of pseudo-spiritual body aptitude. Perhaps only the most ordinary Nascent Soul Pill is needed to attempt a breakthrough.

You don't even need to do anything; you can directly form a nascent soul!

Despite the risks, it must be admitted that even if the air force were to take the field, there is still a certain chance of success, which is the power of spiritual talent.

"Then what does this have to do with the Duan family of Xiangshan?"

"It was Su Yulong. He took the initiative to find Zhuo Shouyun and reached some kind of secret agreement with him. My people were unable to find out the specific details."

"But it is 100% certain that it is related to the Demon Embryo Profound Origin Secret Curse. Some kind of arrangement is in Elephant Mountain. Using them to establish authority is only a necessary reason. Destroying the 'target' on Elephant Mountain is the main reason."

Hearing this, Wang Yu basically understood the whole story. Zhuo Shouqing's open and honest manner suggested that he really wanted Zhuo Shouqing to handle the matter.

Wang Yu, however, felt that things were not so simple.

Is the source of this information reliable?

Trust me!

Seeing the other party's confident assurances, Wang Yu couldn't help but facepalm.

"It's not that I don't trust you; it's precisely because I trust you that I'm worried about whether you might be being deceived."

Zhuo Shouqing frowned.

"You mean... this is a trap."

"Yes."

Wang Yu simply sat down again, adopting a posture of having a heart-to-heart talk. Zhuo Shouqing had already ruined things several times with his incompetent teammates, but he still hadn't learned his lesson.

Perhaps this is his arrogance?

The scene before him was strikingly similar to when he first arrived at Coldblood Peak and offered advice to Su Yulong. He could only hope that Zhuo Shouqing would heed his advice.

"Zhuo Shouqing, put aside all these external factors and get back to the essence of the problem. Think about it... what is your ultimate goal?"

"Devouring Zhuo Shouyun will restore my damaged blood spirit root to its full potential."

"Oh, right."

Wang Yu continued.

"So what are your advantages?"

“I have no advantage. If I had to say… Grandfather Liezu gave me a fair chance to compete, but Zhuo Shouyun has so many external tricks up his sleeve, so fairness will also leave me.”

No! Your advantage lies with me!

Zhuo Shouqing was astonished to discover that this former lackey who had to flatter him had developed such strong self-confidence in less than a century.

Is it due to cultivation level...?

However, the other party's confidence was not enough to make him give his full trust, after all, he was gambling with his life!

Wang Yu did not stop talking.

“Besides that, you have another advantage.”

"--time!"

There's no time left.

"Zhuo Shouyun has too many and too strong helpers. Even though I have been secretly working for many years, I am no match for them. Moreover, if Fu Xiao succeeds, you and I will be facing a Nascent Soul level enemy."

He disagrees with this statement.

A leaf can block your view.

The idea popped into Wang Yu's mind, and he persisted.

"If he could really break through, why would he go to Vermilion Bird Mountain to seek opportunities? Wasn't he Zhuo Shouyun's subordinate before?"

"Why did you have to do it right after I was exposed?"

“You just said that I am the opportunity for Fu Xiao to condense his infant spirit, and by the same token, he is also my opportunity. If Xiangshan is a trap, then my death there would truly allow his plan to succeed.”

Upon hearing these words, Zhuo Shouqing immediately wavered.

He's not stupid; in fact, you could say he's smart. But smart people are often the easiest to be taken advantage of.

After a moment of silence, he persisted.

"The Blood Pavilion members, and Lu Chenzhou... are also threats that cannot be ignored."

Upon hearing this...

Wang Yu suddenly sneered and said without any politeness.

"I think you've been scared out of your wits by that Lu Chenzhou guy. He's just one person, what's there to be afraid of!"

Zhuo Shouqing was still refuting.

"Of the hundreds of Blood Path geniuses in the Blood Pavilion, how come there's only..."

As he spoke, his voice gradually faded away.

"Have you figured it out?"

"The Zhuo family's ancestor couldn't touch Lu Chenzhou, but he could easily touch others. Zhuo Shouyun is deliberately putting pressure on you, forcing you to take a desperate gamble and start a war."

"Once the decisive stage begins, your great-grandfather's promise will naturally become invalid, and no one will be able to save you."

Having said all that, the situation has been analyzed very clearly.

This caused Zhuo Shouqing's back to bend over, and his forehead was covered in cold sweat. He was just a hair's breadth away from giving up his advantage of fairness.

His mouth was dry from talking, so Wang Yu picked up the teapot and drank a lot of tea.

After waiting for a while, the other party finally murmured something.

"What should we do then? If we don't solve these problems, are we just going to sit by and watch him grow stronger?"

"And if this intelligence is wrong, doesn't that mean I've been living under Zhuo Shouyun's surveillance all these years?!"

The pressure was mounting. It seemed that Zhuo Shouqing's intelligence chief had almost complete control over him, and the more this was the case, the more panicked he became.

Seeing that he was about to be defeated by his words, Wang Yu quickly pulled him up a bit, reminding him that one should respect and be cautious towards the enemy.

We also need to have more confidence in ourselves.

In short, wait for the right time to bring about a change in the situation.

--wait!

He had advised Su Yulong in the same way back then, but the other party didn't listen, which allowed Yan Ling to come out on top and reap the benefits.

What does that mean?

"Whom the gods would destroy, they must first be driven mad."

"Zhuo Shouyun has been recklessly courting so many foreign forces. Did your ancestor really know nothing about it? You just need to stay calm and pretend you didn't see it."

"No matter how things develop, there will always be changes. It all depends on who loses their temper first. He will definitely pay a price for his efforts to win you over."

At that time.

The pressure from the family patriarch, the pressure to win over the clan members—the more promises he makes, the more ferocious the backlash will be when he fails to provide the expected returns.

Both sides actually share a consensus: whoever wins this decisive battle will be the successor of their lineage of the Zhuo family.

Zhuo Shouyun's own abilities alone could not sustain the support of so many people for such a long time.

"As for whether the intelligence was sent intentionally, what is your method of verification?"

Having come this far, Zhuo Shouqing no longer concealed anything.

"Zhu Yuanshen, the master of the Hall of Merit and Prosperity of Zhudianfang, is the person who has been in charge of intelligence for me all these years. The information is sent by the spies arranged by Zhuo Shouyun, and he is responsible for verifying it."

Zhuo Yuanshen?

Why do you trust this person?

After a moment of silence, Zhuo Shouqing sighed deeply.

“He is not a member of the main lineage of the Zhuo family. He was in the same batch as me when he underwent the reshaping of the Blood Spring Evil Law. He only succeeded halfway, which is better than me.”

"Half?" Wang Yu couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Yes... half. The conditions for achieving the Blood Spring Evil Law are very difficult. Don't underestimate the fact that it only requires one hundred people born on the same day, month, and year. With the power of the Holy Sect, it's easy to gather them together."

"There are actually many hidden conditions that have not been explained."

"Natural childbirth is the key. If it is forced to mature by a great cultivator's magic, it will not play any role."

"Secondly, they must be in the same realm. This is not a major difference between Qi Refining and Foundation Establishment, but rather specific to each level, or even each strand of spiritual power."

"The cultivation methods must also be the same, with an equal ratio of men and women. Too many or too few will not work. In addition, the lack of spiritual root aptitude will filter out most of the qualified people."

"The population of Chiyuan is far less than that of Taihu. To meet all the conditions, a lot of manpower and resources would be required. Only the direct descendants of Nascent Soul cultivators are qualified."

"Each generation is limited to fifty years, and each generation can select three people."

"In Zhuo Yuanshen's lineage, the ancestor died tragically in the Endless Ice Plains for unknown reasons. As a result, when he was reshaping his spiritual roots, there were a few people missing. In the end, it was his younger brother and sister who sacrificed themselves to complete half of the task."

"It's equivalent to having dual bloodline spiritual roots, which is much better than my situation, thus enabling me to successfully form my core."

"Afterwards, Zhuo Yuanshen investigated and found that it was Zhuo Shouyun who deliberately sent people to sabotage the operation. Since we had the same enemy, we naturally hit it off."

After listening, Wang Yu quietly began to think.

Logically, it's correct, and there are very few doubts. But if Zhuo Shouqing can gain a considerable benefit, what about Zhuo Yuanshen? Doesn't he want to replenish his own blood spirit root?

Without the support of the illustrious ancestor Zhuo, even if he wanted to do this, he wouldn't be qualified, and no one would acknowledge his achievements.

This is the effect of blood ties.

This suspicion alone is not enough to hold water, so Wang Yu asked one last question.

"Did his younger siblings volunteer for sex?"

Wang Yu emphasized the word "voluntary," and the meaning was self-evident.

If we have concrete intelligence, we can determine what kind of personality Zhuo Yuanshen has, and it will be easier to deduce his motives.

When he asked that question...

Zhuo Shouqing also hesitated.

"should?"

Upon hearing this, Wang Yu stretched and patted his shoulder, saying, "Don't answer in such an ambiguous way. Try to find out."

"Oh, and don't forget Yu Xing and Zuo Qiuming. They are the people you can truly trust. If you need to call Lao Ming back, remember to let me know."

"good……"

This conversation will affect many people. Wang Yu's advice to the other party to be patient is partly because he himself needs more time to develop, and he is not very confident in facing the opponent too early.

On the other hand, they felt that Zhuo Shouqing was too eager.

It is often said that those involved are often confused, while bystanders see things clearly.

He wouldn't be entirely certain that his speculation was correct, so he also needed a method to verify it.

What should we do?

When he was helping Zhuo Shouqing organize his thoughts, he had actually done his own sorting out and already had a draft in mind.

The most urgent task is actually to go back and go into seclusion.

He is very close to the fifth level of Core Formation, especially with the boost brought by the Guanghan Pill. He will be able to attempt a breakthrough soon.

When leaving the Evil God's Enforcement Hall.

His keen senses allowed him to quickly detect a malevolent gaze.

When he looked closely, the other person not only didn't avoid him, but also waved to him openly.

Very confident, little red man!

This person is undoubtedly Lu Chenzhou. His features are quite distinctive, and anyone who has heard of him can recognize him at first glance.

They must be staking out Zhuo Shouqing; they must have plenty of free time.

Wang Yu grinned and waved in response, which surprised the other party.
