Chapter 1430 Potential
"Xiao Meng'er?"
Xiao Chen followed the trace of her aura, but Xiao Meng'er hid her aura too deeply. Even with his keen sense, it was difficult for him to accurately grasp her path.
For some reason, he always had a bad premonition in his heart. If Xiao Meng'er had escaped, why would she avoid him all the way and not let him find her?
Until dawn, there was still no trace of Xiao Meng'er. Xiao Chen took out a jade note from his sleeve. Not only was the jade note covered with cracks and dim, but even the last bit of spiritual power inside had disappeared. What did this mean?
"She crushed her jade note..."
Xiao Chen frowned. Why did Xiao Meng'er crush her jade note? Is it to hide the traces, or to prevent him from finding her...
"That little girl is probably not simple... But boy, you don't have to worry too much. Since she can escape from the old thief Duanmu Xie, she must have extraordinary skills."
At this moment, the voice of the bone demon suddenly sounded in his mind. Xiao Chen frowned. In fact, what he is most worried about now is not the Lord of the Heavenly Domain, but Xiao Meng'er herself.
Last night in Duanmu Xie's cave, those people died too horribly. This is definitely not what Xiao Meng'er did. In addition, there is still residual demonic energy in that temple. Maybe ordinary people can't feel it, but how can he not feel it? That is demonic energy.
But how can Xiao Meng'er have demonic energy? This is absolutely impossible... Unless the entire Xiao family or the Xianqiong Sect has problems.
He must continue to search and find Xiao Meng'er as soon as possible. This time Xiao Meng'er came in with him and was also looking for clues about the ancient lotus for him. He must not let her get into trouble.
But now, in this "heavenly domain", he was a little afraid of the mysterious "lord of the heavenly domain", so he didn't dare to rashly probe his spiritual sense, otherwise once he attracted the attention of the other party, things would become more troublesome.
After searching for dozens of miles, after an incense stick, Xiao Chen came to the top of a valley, and saw that the flowers, plants and trees on the nearby mountains were all destroyed, and there was a faint bloody smell at the bottom of the valley.
"It seems that she has been here."
The voice of the bone demon sounded in his mind again, and Xiao Chen did not hesitate and flew down the valley in an instant.
When he fell down, he saw more than a dozen broken bodies lying in the pile of rocks, among which there were four men's bodies, which looked the most terrifying, with a big hole in the chest, and the Nascent Soul was crushed alive, and the soul must have failed to escape.
"This..."
Seeing this scene, Xiao Chen couldn't help but be a little frightened. If the people in the demon way were so terrible, it would not be surprising, but Xiao Meng'er's killing methods would never be so terrible.
But at this time, the deaths of these people were similar to those in Duanmu Xie's cave. If she didn't kill them, then who did it?
"It seems that these people were killed by her."
The bone demon suddenly appeared beside Xiao Chen, squatted down, checked the four bodies, and said, "What a trick. These four people have at least the eighth realm of cultivation, but they all died in her hands. And you can see that these four people's Nascent Souls were all crushed, which means that when they died, they had no power to struggle at all, and even their Yuanshen was crushed..."
"It really was her..."
Xiao Chen couldn't help but frown deeply, and then looked at the flowers and plants around him. There seemed to be a trace of residual demonic energy. Ordinary people couldn't detect it, but he was particularly sensitive to the aura of gods and demons, so how could he not find it?
But Xiao Meng'er's Taoism was not inferior to that of her junior sister. Her Taoism was so deep that no one could shake it. How could she have demonic energy? Moreover, even he felt that this killing method was too cruel, and it didn't look like Xiao Meng'er did it at all.
The Bone Demon slowly stood up and said, "If I guess correctly, she should have practiced some kind of ancient forbidden profound art..."
"Ancient forbidden profound art?" Xiao Chen frowned and looked at the corpses around him. Could it be more powerful than the heavenly book he practiced?
The Bone Demon slowly said, "Boy, in fact, haven't you noticed that the restrictions of heaven and earth in this ancient trace have gradually become smaller? This was originally a broken world, transcending the three realms of heaven, earth and man..."
He said here, turned around, looked at Xiao Chen and said, "You and that girl are both people with unlimited potential. In this ancient trace, you can magnify your potential as much as possible, and you will not be restricted by the laws of heaven and earth like outside. This is why she can kill these eight realms cultivators with forbidden means."
Hearing him say this, Xiao Chen vaguely understood a little bit. The Bone Demon continued, "In fact, everyone's potential is only played to one or two tenths, and it is bound to be bound by the invisible constraints of the laws of heaven and earth. If you play to 100% of your potential, you will definitely be an existence beyond heaven and earth, And the heaven and earth are above all living things, how can anyone surpass him? "
At this point, the bone demon stopped, stood with his hands behind his back, looked at the slowly rising sun between the valleys, and said, "In the ancient times, some people tried to break this kind of heaven and earth restriction, but they were all destroyed by heaven and earth... Some people also created various magical powers and tried to go against the heavens, but in the end, they all failed. Under the restriction of heaven and earth, they ended up being annihilated. It is undoubtedly a fantasy for human power to shake the sky. "
Hearing him say this, Xiao Chen's brows gradually locked, looking at the corpses on the ground, and recalling Duanmu Xie's frightened look last night, frowned and said, "You mean, she practiced some kind of ancient taboo method and maximized her potential..."
"It's possible. "
The Bone Demon nodded and said, "If I guess correctly, the most terrifying thing about the ancient forbidden method is not the various peerless magical powers recorded in it, but the ability to infinitely develop a person's potential to a level that is enough to defy the heavens. If this is true, then the person who created this method must be a forbidden existence that is intolerable to heaven and earth..."
As for the term "potential", Xiao Chen had never heard of it before. It was not until he heard what the Bone Demon said today that he felt "refreshed" and asked, "Is it possible to reach the level of exerting 100% of one's potential?" degree?"
"Impossible."
The Bone Demon shook his head and said, "I have said that human potential is unlimited, but it is restricted by the laws of heaven and earth. Once it reaches 100%, it will be an existence beyond heaven and earth. You must know that no matter how strong the body is, it cannot withstand 100% of its potential. When it reaches 100% of its potential, it has already exceeded heaven and earth, from 'tangible' to 'intangible'... Just like this heaven and earth, look at this heaven and earth, is it tangible or intangible?"
After listening, Xiao Chen couldn't help but fall into deep thought again. Did Xiao Meng'er really practice such a forbidden profound skill? What about the Heavenly Book? What about the complete Heavenly Book...
"You mean, even Dugu Tianxia's body can't bear 100% of its potential?"
"Haha!"
Hearing him ask this, the Bone Demon raised his head and smiled, as if laughing at his ignorance at the moment, and said, "Boy, it seems that you still don't understand what I just said to you. Dugu Tianxia may have entered an invincible realm ten thousand years ago, but compared to this world, he is just a speck of dust in the vast universe, and 100% of the potential is an existence beyond the world. Do you think the two are comparable?"
"I know."
This time, Xiao Chen finally understood completely that although human potential is unlimited, it is bound by the laws of heaven and earth. No one can develop 100% of their potential. That would be an existence beyond heaven and earth, and an existence beyond heaven and earth is an existence that does not exist.
The Bone Demon said, "In short, in this ancient trace, you and that girl can fully exert your potential. For you, the eighth realm cultivators are no longer a concern here, but... don't underestimate this broken world."
"Hmm..."
Xiao Chen nodded. Next, he needed to find Xiao Meng'er as soon as possible. Xiao Meng'er may have practiced some ancient forbidden skills. Since it is "taboo", it is definitely not a trivial matter. If she is allowed to continue, something bad will happen.
At this moment, a breath suddenly came from outside the valley. The Bone Demon's expression condensed, "Someone is coming, kid, I will go back to my sleeve first." After saying that, he disappeared from the spot.
Xiao Chen wanted to leave, but he was a step too slow after all. The breath came too fast, and it came as soon as it was said, leaving him no time to unfold his body skills.
Not far away, there was a figure standing there. The person was wearing a red robe and had a mark of Xuanhuo on his face. His eyes were deep and cold. It was none other than the Xuanhuo Envoy who had just visited Duanmu Xie yesterday.
