Chapter 176 Digging a Hole (Two in One)
As a player with all achievements, Gu Fangchen has seen all the escape routes of the "King of Endurance" and knows Gu Yuye too well.
Although this guy is an ultimate invincible old villain, he will only choose the last way to survive when all other options are exhausted.
Moreover, Gu Yuye has plenty of backup plans and can often give himself a decent reason. Others even think that he has his own difficulties.
Just like Gu Lianxian, until her death she still felt that Gu Yuye was forced to join Qingman and endured hardships.
It's actually very easy to push this old bastard to the point of breaking his bottom line.
But it is very difficult to dig out his true face, expose it in front of everyone, and cut off all his escape routes.
What Gu Fangchen wanted was not only Gu Yuye's death, but also his disgrace.
Therefore, he had to get Gu Yuye under control first.
Instead of letting him feel that he has no way out, we should point him to a bright and bright path forward!
This is the road that Gu Yuye has to take, which will allow him to rise straight to the top and reach the position he desires most in one step.
Gu Yuye was not stupid. When he saw Gu Fangchen repeatedly mentioning the dragon vein and saying that he would give him a great fortune, his heart skipped a beat and a guess came to his mind.
But he quickly suppressed his thoughts, remained calm, looked at Gu Fangchen expressionlessly, and said in a deep voice:
"Master Feiwei, if you have anything to say, please speak directly. I, Gu Yuye, have reached my current position step by step through solid military merit. I have cultivated to this point through the law of heaven, and it is not my turn to be blessed by others!"
He said this bluntly because Gu Fangchen's wording was obviously condescending and arrogant.
Although Gu Yuye was a third-grade cultivator, no one would really regard him as a third-grade cultivator.
It is not certain whether his real body has actually appeared in public so far. His three clones all have the strength of the third rank, and the strength of his real body is definitely more than an ordinary third rank.
Among all the Taoist masters, they have always been treated equally.
If someone tries to suppress him, he will of course feel unhappy and will definitely fight back.
"Hey, don't be anxious."
"Everyone, please listen to me..."
Gu Fangchen smiled, glanced at all the Dao Masters present, took two steps forward, his face solemn, pointed at the map, and said:
"Don't blame me for being harsh. The current 'Ten Daos' are just a pile of loose sand. They may seem powerful, but in reality, they are unlikely to achieve anything significant!"
When these words were spoken, the expressions of the Dao Masters varied, but their reactions were not too big.
"Six Star Lords" frowned, and although it was a bit sharp, Gu Fangchen was actually not wrong.
The Ten Great Paths themselves are the unification of several forces, and only by relying on them to reach a consensus and forcibly suppress them with absolute force can they be dispatched.
In fact, there is no cohesion in the daily internal strife.
As the original most important member of this operation, the "charcoal seller" felt that Gu Fangchen's appearance at this time must be to express his opinion on him.
And after hearing his words, I became even more certain.
Their plan this time was twofold: one was to incite the Qingman, and the other was to coordinate uprisings in various places.
It is obvious who the term "a pile of loose sand" refers to.
This guy... relied on his "mirage formation" to gain attention and wanted to seize the right to speak.
I'm really anxious!
Just now they were just caught off guard and frightened. Now that they understand that it is indeed a "mirage", do you really think they will be afraid of this fake "Wheel of Sea Tribulation"?
The charcoal seller said coldly:
"Do you really need to tell us this nonsense before we understand it?"
"'Ten Paths' are ten different paths. We have all worked hard and accommodated each other to achieve our current success. Yet, you resort to these sarcastic remarks to undermine your own prestige. Could it be that you possess such extraordinary abilities that you can bring everyone together overnight?"
Gu Fangchen shook his head and said dumbly:
"Of course I don't have such ability. If I could cultivate the Way of Love to this level, I could kill Xie Qian directly."
The charcoal seller snorted coldly:
"Then why are you saying all that bullshit again?"
Gu Fangchen said calmly:
"United will is like an army, and there are naturally ways to play the game."
"A pile of loose sand, of course there are ways to play with it."
"The Tenth Dao is not an army. The rebels are only just beginning to gain momentum. Xiao Ying's White Dragon Army wasn't severely damaged by the battle at Qiu'an Dao. Instead, its overall strength has grown, and it returned victorious. Its prestige is even greater than before. If she were to allocate some of her forces to defend and suppress the uprising, and with the old emperor dispatching the Blood Robe Guards, the war could last at least three years."
Gu Fangchen's expression remained unchanged as he analyzed:
"Jian Ge now has a very good relationship with Gu Fangchen, and Jian Ge's appeal has also reached a new level. If Ning Songjun raises his arm and calls for help, a large number of practitioners will surely respond and assist the court."
"What's more, we have the Imperial Master Xu Fu behind us. Our chance to truly shake up the Wei Dynasty only lasts a few short years."
"By the time Xu Fu reacts and cooperates with Yao Shan, it will be too late."
"We must concentrate all our strength and make a concerted effort."
"The longer it takes, the harder it will be to succeed!"
He was speaking the truth. Even if the players stood on the side of the Demon Cult, Xu Fu could hold on for thirty years on his own.
If things had continued as they were, the Demon Cult's chances of winning would have been fifty-fifty.
Although we can win, it will definitely be a pyrrhic victory.
After all, the emperor of the Great Wei was none other than the Taoist master "Heng Chang" himself. He controlled the changes of dynasties and he would definitely let the Demon Cult push the person he chose to the throne to complete the "Heng Chang Unchanging" from beginning to end.
But the current demon cult doesn't know...
With Gu Fangchen's participation, the originally weakened forces of the righteous path have been strengthened instead. Judging from the short-term development trend, the Demon Cult is indeed in danger, and its chances of winning are further reduced.
The Demon Cult was forced to adopt a backup plan, which was a bit like burning their boats.
Now that we analyze it this way, it seems as if they are bound to lose...
Gu Fangchen looked around and saw that their expressions had changed slightly. He slowed down his tone and said:
"Therefore, although the current plan seems safe, in fact, in my opinion, it is not suitable for a loose sand game!"
"In the final analysis, the Thousand-Year-Old Man was thinking too far ahead, forgetting that delays can lead to unexpected consequences!"
The current plan of the Demon Cult was given by An Qisheng, and was implemented by the "Six Star Gods" in combination with the horoscope.
This Qi-refining master, who claimed to have lived for thousands of years, had thought things through thoroughly and had given a full plan, but when it came to execution, the Demon Cult was so disorganized that problems arose too easily.
If the plan is too detailed, there will usually be no mistakes in any step.
The tolerance rate is too low!
Every word that Gu Fangchen said was based on reality and completely in line with the actual situation of the Demon Sect. The other Taoist leaders originally thought that he was arrogant, but after listening to him, they felt that it made a lot of sense.
Although his words were sharp, it seemed that he was truly giving his all for their cause...
Although the charcoal seller knew his concerns were not groundless, he still refused to buy them:
"You've said so much, but if you don't tell me how to solve it, then it's just empty talk."
Gu Fangchen raised his eyebrows and said with a smile:
"The solution... I've already said it."
He raised his hand and waved it, and a new mark suddenly appeared on the floating map.
The trace runs through the entire Jiangnan Thirteen Roads, like a long dragon.
The charcoal seller was stunned, his pupils constricted.
"Is this the sixth dragon vein you mentioned?"
The others were also surprised.
They originally thought that this sixth dragon vein should be about the same size as the other dragon veins.
Because the dragon vein had long been abandoned, it had actually degenerated into an ordinary earth vein and was not very large. However, it still contained a small amount of residual willpower, making it quite special.
For example, the dragon vein under Jiange, at best, only occupies a Donglong Lake.
But unexpectedly, this sixth hidden dragon vein would be hundreds of times larger than the other dragon veins!
This mark is like a horizontal cut across the middle of Wei!
You know, there are only 28 regions in the Great Wei, and Jiangnan occupies 13 of them. Half of the area is the real hinterland and an economically prosperous place. If we can control the dragon vein here...
Everyone suddenly understood the attitude of the Taoist Master "Feiwei". Why did he dare to be so arrogant and bold and directly criticize their original plan as useless?
At the same time, their thoughts also fluctuated with the flying dragon veins.
If this dragon vein is real, it is indeed much better than the current plan!
There's no need to worry or plan anymore. Once this dragon vein appears, the entire Wei Dynasty will be in chaos...
The Six Star Lords looked solemn and said thoughtfully:
"My men did collect a motto I left behind..."
This "I" refers to the causal line of the other "Six Star Gods" who are in reincarnation.
Since the "Six Star Gods" had divided themselves into six parts early on and had to keep it a secret from Xu Fu, they could not give orders directly to their disciples and could only leave corresponding precepts from time to time.
His disciples made it their mission to collect the maxims left by the "Six Star Gods" in the cause and effect line.
Among them, many proverbs are very secretive and have no beginning or end, and must be interpreted to be understood.
Therefore, even for the "Six Star Gods" themselves, it is difficult to judge which ones are useful and which ones are useless.
He had just heard Gu Fangchen mention this hidden dragon vein, and then he remembered that there was indeed a line in it that said -
"To the east of the Southern Dipper, a blue dragon will rise."
If the two are connected, then wouldn’t the sixth dragon vein be confirmed?
The Dao Masters' expressions changed:
"What does Xingjun mean?"
The Six Star Lords nodded and said solemnly:
"This sixth dragon vein does exist, but... I've measured it before and found no signs of a dragon vein in Jiangnan."
"However, this is indeed a bit strange. Judging from Yaoshan's reaction, none of the five dragon veins are in the south of the Yangtze River."
"But Jiangnan occupies half of the area of Wei. The possibility of there being no dragon veins should be very small."
nonsense……
This dragon vein is under the Nine Netherworld, how could you possibly find it?
Although the "Six Star Gods" are difficult to deal with, they are only of the second rank after all. They cannot break through the boundary between the two worlds, so naturally they cannot be counted.
As for the "Cang Long" in his motto... theoretically, it should refer to the players.
But now all the players are gone, so who this "Canglong" is, isn't it up to Gu Fangchen to decide?
Gu Fangchen muttered a few words in his heart, and continued with a serious expression:
"As the saying goes, divine objects conceal themselves. According to the dragon vein map, this dragon vein should actually be the true vein of human destiny!"
"It's not the luck of a single dynasty, but the luck accumulated by the entire human race!"
"Such a huge fortune naturally cannot be easily discovered."
He looked around and said solemnly:
"But, as long as we control this central dragon vein of destiny and tell everyone that whoever controls the dragon vein controls the world, then why worry about the national destiny not converging on one person?"
Everyone was shocked when they heard this.
Having said that, they finally understood Gu Fangchen's plan.
The original plan of the Demon Cult was to use manpower to break up the current national destiny of the Wei Dynasty, and through the normal changes of dynasties and the fickleness of people's hearts, to seize the national destiny again in a proper way.
But Gu Fangchen wants to let the country's destiny come into his own hands.
Everyone suddenly felt enlightened, but at the same time, they also felt a little strange.
In comparison, why does it feel like their previous plan was... too conservative?
Not enough of a cult at all!
Gu Fangchen saw their expressions and kept smiling, knowing in his heart that they already believed him 30%.
Although it was only three points, it was enough for him to proceed to the next step.
After all, he has reached a high-level position in the Demon Cult, and what he has pointed out are the real pain points of the Demon Cult's plan.
However, in the game, he does not follow the path of "emotion", but the path of "righteousness" -
The "righteousness" sect itself accepts people from all walks of life. In addition to creating disputes and chaos, it also serves as a department for the Demon Cult to collect and gather intelligence.
The "righteousness" path is the easiest to join and the easiest to reach the top, and it can also participate in most of the core plans in the later stages.
Now, he has seized the identity of the leader of the "Love" Dao, and the starting point is higher, but the process is still the same.
It was not difficult for him to gain their trust by using information that was three parts true and seven parts false.
If Gu Fangchen wants Gu Yuye to take the initiative, he has to find the right scale.
Don't be too exaggerated, but don't make it seem easy either...
He looked at Gu Yuye and said with a smile:
"Gu Yuye, do you understand now what I am going to give you?"
"To be honest, our forces are already scattered. Allowing the rebels to spread out in more places may seem safe, but in fact it will only make our forces more dispersed."
"It's better to hit with force and kill with one blow!"
His eyes were deep and full of temptation:
"As long as we create a child of destiny favored by the sixth dragon vein and let the rebels follow him as their leader, then the people's hearts and the country's destiny will all turn against us."
"This person must have sufficient reputation and power."
"Without the help of Qing Man, as long as the dragon veins show miracles, this person can ascend to the throne of the supreme ruler with just a wave of his hand!"
