Jiang Li went to Elder Zhong with the intention of providing information. Much of the information he had was far beyond what he could handle.
After all, the matter is of great importance, and if the sky falls, someone taller should hold it up. He believes that it is necessary for the sect to prepare for some things.
So he sorted out his thoughts and told the story of what happened in the city, picking out the parts that could be told and modifying some of the wording.
"You mean eleven disciples disappear every day?"
Jiang Li did not directly reveal the information about the spiritual root seeds. Although there was already a lot of evidence for this matter, if he risked his life to speak out directly, it might be enough to make the sect believe him! But from many places, it can be seen that this spiritual root seed is definitely not something that has only appeared recently. Moreover, this thing can even control Jindan monks. If this is not an isolated case, the things involved are probably more terrifying than Jiang Li's imagination.
If a small Qi-cultivating cultivator reveals such a secret, even if this secret can really stir up great changes in the world of cultivation, how can he protect himself from being killed?
If I risk my life to give direct advice, I'm afraid I'll just die.
On the other hand, Jiang Li couldn't explain why he knew so much.
His earliest understanding of the "spiritual root seed" came from a name identified by the identification technique. Coupled with the subsequent bold assumptions and careful verification, he has the current general understanding.
But how would he explain this "identification technique" to the sect? What if the sect suspected him and regarded him as a traitor, or found some clues and investigated thoroughly?
It is very likely that his own uniqueness will be exposed, and in the end, he may become the first unlucky person to be sacrificed in the spiritual root catastrophe.
Therefore, he just repeatedly emphasized the number "eleven" and described in detail the possibility that the "missing outer disciples" might be controlled or even possessed.
I hope the sect can take this seriously, and conduct an in-depth investigation from the perspective of possession, so as to uncover all the parasitic monks with spiritual roots who may be hiding in the world of immortal cultivation.
"I'm not sure how many disciples disappeared on the third day, but eleven people did disappear on the first two days. And the missing brothers were all found in the cave where the rebels hid."
"It is said that when they disappeared, they were deceived by the disciples who also disappeared."
Jiang Li added more details again, and Elder Zhong obviously had his own ideas.
Elder: "When they were found, were they all in a coma? No one was actually killed?"
Jiang Li: Could it be that Elder Zhong has learned to answer quickly? "Yes, yes, that's right, and all the disciples who fainted on the ground have their hair turned white."
Elder Zhong: "Is it that they all seem to have betrayed the sect and are attacking you instead?"
Jiang Li: "Yes, yes. Their behavior is completely different from that of two different people. They must be controlled by someone."
Elder: "Is it true that the thunder tribulation suddenly began not long after they died?"
Jiang Li: "Yes, yes, yes..." Hmm? Why are you suddenly talking about the thunder tribulation?
Jiang Li hoped that the other party would pay attention to the means by which the other party controlled the monks, but it was obvious that the elder's attention was not in the same direction as Jiang Li's. He was obviously more concerned about their purpose behind controlling the outer disciples.
But the sect elders had no idea about the matter of the spiritual root seeds. In his opinion, it was just a few outer disciples in the Qi Refining stage who were controlled by someone. Isn't that a simple matter?
He himself has two or three ways to do it, so it's not surprising that Duan Shuang, who is also a Jindan, can do it.
What he was more concerned about was naturally Duan Shuang's purpose in doing this.
Jiang Li wanted to say something else, but when he thought about it, it seemed that if he said more, he would reveal his true colors.
Jiang Li would never dare to tell anyone about his concern for identification. Between protecting himself and protecting others, Jiang Li's choice would not be surprising at all.
After all, there are still more than two thousand time bombs in the sect. As long as he handles it properly, he has a hundred ways to make them unable to stay and reveal their true colors.
Jiang Li will be an inner disciple in the future. Although it may sound a bit like bullying to say this, it is not difficult for him to create a group of outer disciples with ulterior motives.
There is obviously a better way to solve the problem. Jiang Li can't be so foolish as to talk nonsense and get himself involved.
However, when Elder Zhong mentioned the thunder tribulation, Jiang Li was full of doubts and interest.
After giving an affirmative reply, Elder Zhong showed an expression of "I see."
"No wonder, no wonder it happened. No wonder the thunder tribulation had been lingering in the sky for so long before it suddenly erupted. I didn't expect that Duan Shuang would be so vicious."
"Elder Zhong, can you tell me about the thunder tribulation?"
Seeing that he hadn't responded yet, Jiang Li took the initiative to ask.
"You don't know about the thunder tribulation?... That's right, you've only been practicing for a short time at your age, and it's normal that you don't know about it because you haven't been taught in the Transmission Hall."
Elder Zhong looked at Jiang Li with a little surprise on his face, but when he saw Jiang Li's childish face, he suddenly understood.

"You are also an inner sect disciple. It wouldn't hurt to know more about this heavenly punishment."
"Jiang Li, do you know what bad consequences are?"
Elder Zhong threw out a new term, leaving Jiang Li confused.
"I don't know, please enlighten me, elder."
"Bad consequences are the bitter fruits of evil deeds. They manifest in many forms, and divine punishment is the punishment of heaven and earth caused by excessive accumulation of bad consequences..."
Following Elder Zhong's narration, Jiang Li finally understood many things that he had been unable to understand before.
No wonder monks don't kill mortals at will.
No wonder when Elder Duan Shuang fled into the city, the sect just surrounded it but did not attack.
This is because the monks are afraid of being contaminated by the evil consequences.
Evil consequences are the unit of measurement used by Heaven to punish the evil deeds committed by the intelligent beings in this world.
Generally speaking, killing one person will result in one bad consequence, and killing ten people will result in ten bad consequences. Doing other bad things will also accumulate some bad consequences.
Of course, this refers to innocent people. If you kill someone who has committed a heinous crime, you might even be rewarded with some merit.
The bad consequences will be remembered by you, but when you are young, you won’t see much difference and it won’t have any impact on you.
But if the number exceeds a certain level, the cultivator will be hated by heaven and earth and will have all kinds of problems.
For example, if one is distracted during cultivation, it is difficult to break through barriers, the thunder tribulation is stronger during tribulation, etc. If the evil deeds done are too exaggerated, it is possible that one will directly bring about divine punishment.
This consequence is hard to accept? ? I will modify it later, it is not an important setting anyway (End of this chapter)
