Chapter 548: The Third Generation of Pesticides
Early in the morning,
As the first ray of golden sunlight shone down, the entire world quickly became colorful and full of vitality.
About half an hour later, a second, smaller sun slowly rose in the light blue sky.
The light from this sun is much softer, almost impossible to detect with the naked eye.
The function of the previous sun is to facilitate the growth of all things, making the world diverse and able to adjust the color and light field that is most suitable for human survival.
But the light emitted by the latter sun can purify the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and at the same time disinfect and clean up the garbage that has been generated.
Of course, this is not ordinary garbage, not carbon dioxide or anything like that, but it is used to cleanse inner demons, absorb negative energy and filth, and scan possible dark corners to prevent them from becoming a breeding ground for nightmares and curse invasions.
This is the first generation of the new Tiandao purification system that Tiandao Xiaoniang developed after being reminded by Zhang Yang, which took her ten years to develop.
Zhang Yang was greatly impressed by this Heavenly Dao Purification System, so a Heavenly Dao Purification Research Group was quickly established with Qu Shang as the leader, gathering five demigods and thirty Mahayana masters of the Laws. Under the leadership of the Heavenly Dao Lady, they were to thoroughly perfect this Heavenly Dao Purification System in the next five hundred years.
At the same time, because of this inspiration, Zhang Yang personally took charge of setting up a research group on the Heavenly Dao Anti-Curse System.
Because according to the information he had obtained, he was not afraid of frontal attacks, but what he was afraid of was dark and strange things.
The Tiandao purification system is prevention-oriented and can basically purify those dark and strange sources of invasion.
But there is one type of hidden thing that cannot be prevented by prior purification, and that is curses.
Even if there is a Heavenly Dao barrier, it can only weaken the power of the curse, for example, one layer can weaken it by a few percent, but it can never completely block it. Even the Heavenly Dao girl admits this.
The best way is to isolate the cursed target immediately once it is discovered, and at the same time forcibly purify it using the law.
Therefore, this is the most important goal of the anti-curse system research group that Zhang Yang is planning to establish.
Since it is a research group, it certainly cannot be a lone commander.
Zhang Yang personally selected personnel and tested and selected them one by one.
It took three months to finally select two demigods of the law, Li Si and Guan Shan, and five great masters of the law, Tu Wanli, Liu Ming, Ji Ming, Gou Dao, and Zhu Ti.
Of course, there is also Qiao Mu, as well as hundreds of Mahayana monks who are very good at the subject of curses, and nearly five thousand carefully selected apprentices, all of whom have reached the Foundation Establishment Stage and the Golden Core Stage.
Because Zhang Yang believes that the anti-curse cause must be persisted in and developed over a long period of time, so we must start from the basics.
"Everyone, do you have any ideas about curses and counter-curses? Feel free to speak freely."
At the gate of Tianjian Sect, Zhang Yang specially requisitioned a hill as the base for the anti-curse system research team. At this moment, he was having a cordial exchange with the core team members.
However, as expected, even the two demigods of law, Li Si and Guan Shan, were very confident about this anti-curse.
"Master, sword energy can kill demons. We, the sword cultivators, are the most capable of dealing with those monsters among the nine ways of cultivating immortals. I don't believe that there is any curse that can still exist under the crushing of 2,000 times the high-pressure sword energy!"
This is Li Si’s opinion.
"Yes, Master, our Heavenly Sword Sect has improved a lot now. The sword heart protects the body, the sword soul protects the spirit, the sword will protects the way, the sword energy is mainly for killing, and with the help of sword seals and divine seals, it can be said to be an integrated offense and defense. There are no major loopholes, so I think the most urgent task is to continue to improve the sword law. I don't believe that if we have four or five law gods, no curse can do anything to us."
This is Guanshan’s opinion.
Zhang Yang's eyebrows twitched. These two guys seemed to be causing trouble.
"Then get out of here. If you have the guts, can you break through to become a God of Law within 10,000 years?"
"Thank you, Master. I will never let you down."
Li Si and Guan Shan, the two captured coolies, ran away without saying a word.
"So, what about you guys? You don't want to quit your job too, do you?" Zhang Yang's eyes swept over the five medium-sized coolies and saw their playful faces.
"Get lost!"
Zhang Yang waved his hand, and the five law masters fled as if they had been pardoned. They were busy breaking through the law demigods, so how could they have time to waste on this anti-curse system? His master was still as unreliable as ever! "Anyone who wants to get out should do it now!"
Zhang Yang gave the order again, and then the hundreds of Mahayana monks who had just been brought in also slipped away.
Only five people are left.
Qiao Mu, and two second-generation disciples.
The former's thinking mode is very different from others, but the latter two do not really have any profound insights into the curse, nor do they agree with Zhang Yang's ideas and noble sentiments of sacrificing their own families for the sake of the public. They just have poor qualifications, insufficient potential, and their lifespan is coming to an end, so they want to try their luck here with Zhang Yang.
"Qiao Mu, what do you think?"
Zhang Yang was not angry at this moment, let alone depressed. After all, there were very few people like him who were so far-sighted and could see what was happening tens of thousands of steps away.
Qiao Mu blinked and bowed, saying, "Master, when it comes to curses, I dare not speak nonsense. I can only share some of my own humble opinions."
"The word 'curse' has 'speech' next to it and 'curse' has two mouths on top, so it's not hard to see that the original curse was hatred in the heart, vented out loud, but since there's no evidence, it's naturally indescribable. So, if you want to systematically understand the curse, you must first understand the characteristics of this power, and then focus on this characteristic to study and decipher it, and ultimately achieve the effect of containment, blocking, or even rebounding."
"I have been doing some research on the characteristics of curses for a while. Specifically, no matter how vicious a curse from an ordinary person is, the chances of it being effective are extremely low. It is almost impossible. Only by luck or by the combined efforts of hundreds of millions of people to curse for a long time will it have some effect."
"Then there are the curses of immortal cultivators, which are capped at the Nascent Soul stage. If you simply curse with your tongue, the effect will be the same as that of a mortal, and bird feathers will have no effect. However, immortal cultivators have great magical powers and can mobilize the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, so if they curse, they usually use external media, such as the cursed person's hair, clothes, flesh, descendants, etc., supplemented by various materials and various spells. The final curse has a very high success rate and is very effective, but in my opinion, this is still a superficial curse."
“If one’s cultivation strength is above the Nascent Soul Stage and below the Great Perfection Stage, one can actually communicate with the Heaven and Earth to a certain extent, that is, one can mobilize a little bit of the power of the Heaven and Earth. And what is the Heaven and Earth? It is the Way of Heaven. The Way of Heaven controls the lives of the world, knows all birth, aging, sickness and death, and knows the changes of all things in the world. Therefore, using the power of Heaven and Earth to curse or divine often has very good effects and is always successful. The only thing is that if the Way of Heaven senses that one is being used, it will punish immediately, which is the so-called backlash of the Way of Heaven, and often one will be seriously injured if not killed.”
“As for how the demigods, gods, and secondary gods of law curse, I have not yet studied how the gods of law curse, let alone how the ancient gods curse.”
After Qiao Mu finished speaking, Zhang Yang smiled. This little cousin is still pretending to be stupid.
"Okay, I understand. What you mean is that curses come in many forms, but in fact, they all have the same essence. They seem indescribable, but in fact, they must be based on something. Otherwise, any curse is just a bunch of saliva."
"Master is wise!" Qiao Mu shouted loudly.
Zhang Yang spat in his heart, but did not expose this hypocritical guy. What a hypocrite, he came to his territory to pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger.
"So, building an anti-curse system is a false proposition, right? It's not even as effective as the purification system. Because, when the enemy wants to curse us, the things they rely on have already existed quietly around us. In this way, once the curse comes, it will be invisible to everyone. There is no way to explain it with common sense, and there is no way to resist it. We can only retreat in fear."
"If our enemy is a god of law, then the land beneath our feet, especially the continent we seized from the Xing people, is definitely the best medium for curse. But if our enemy is an ancient god——"
Zhang Yang sighed, the answer was already obvious.
That is - the long river of time! Using the long river of time as the medium of curse, and the household registration of the fourth sequence as a more accurate medium, who can escape if an ancient god wants to curse? Perhaps the only problem is that using the long river of time as the medium of curse, the cost of each use will be extremely huge, so this is the reason why these creatures can still survive.
"You two, step back."
Zhang Yang drove away the other two second-generation disciples who were trying to fill in the gaps, and then looked at Qiao Mu. However, this guy remained respectful and did not even raise his head.
After a long silence, Zhang Yang asked softly, "What happened in the fifth sequence?"
Qiao Mu did not answer and remained as still as a wooden sculpture.
Zhang Yang continued, as if talking to himself, "The virus is actually unable to destroy the fifth sequence, but there is definitely a big problem with the fifth sequence, at least in the sky dimension, so this has become a dead end. What is the answer, or what are the variables that appear?"
Qiao Mu still didn't say anything, as if he heard nothing.
Zhang Yang looked at him, his expression gradually becoming serious, "It's a curse, right? A new type of insecticide developed for us post-natal creatures? After all, we post-natal creatures are just bugs in the eyes of those indescribable beings!"
"The virus is definitely the first generation of insecticides. It is extremely effective, but it is absolutely incapable of killing acquired creatures. This can be seen from the fact that there is no trace of the virus in the fourth sequence. Only acquired creatures that can survive in the fourth sequence will not be afraid of viruses infiltrating and causing trouble."
"So, mechanical zombies are the second-generation insecticides that have been developed. They are more effective than viruses, and even quite effective. However, if you want to completely kill the acquired creatures, this is still not enough. Therefore, there is no doubt that the third-generation insecticides must have been developed and tested. Then, unfortunately, you, not only you, but also your companions, and your nest have become the guinea pigs of this third-generation insecticide?"
When Zhang Yang said this, Qiao Mu finally raised his head, his eyes were red and tears flowed uncontrollably. He seemed to want to say something, but in the end he said nothing.
Zhang Yang understood immediately.
"I know. It's indescribable. As the only survivor who escaped from the third-generation pesticide test, you can't describe anything. Even your name can't be mentioned anymore. Otherwise, you will immediately become a carrier of the third-generation pesticide and spread throughout this world."
"However, I still have some cards and some luck. Let's go to the Death Ship and continue to keep my mouth shut."
Zhang Yang suddenly laughed. He was suddenly glad that he had fallen into the game arena of a nameless ancient god, because this arena itself had a very strong isolation effect.
If we add the isolation of the Death Boat, even the owner of the pesticide would not be able to easily find Mu Shaoan, the survivor of the experiment.
And if the power of the owner of the insecticide were to seep in, the first person to suffer would definitely be the nameless ancient god playing the game.
