Chapter 1,380 Ancestor Mo Yan
"how?"
"There's nothing wrong! It's just..."
Halfway through her words, Chu Xuanji looked suspicious and unsure.
Obviously, she did find something strange in Qi Zhizhai's body.
"What's going on? If you find anything in his body - no matter how incredible it is, you can speak out boldly. It doesn't matter if you're wrong!"
"Don't dare to deceive Senior Xiao! Xuanji discovered a soul contract in Senior Qi's body!"
"Soul Contract? Qi Zhizhai is the leader of the Beast-Yuing Sect. He lives his life and establishes a sect in the spirit beast way. Isn't it normal for him to have a Soul Contract in his body?"
"There is a soul contract in his body, which is indeed normal! The problem is: there is only one!"
Chu Xuanji repeatedly emphasized that there is only one soul contract in Qi Zhizhai's body!
At this time, Xiao Mian also felt something was wrong!
Qi Zhizhai definitely has more than one spiritual beast - even if the armadillo beast is his most proud spiritual beast, in addition, Qi Zhizhai also has other spiritual beasts.
A spiritual beast is a soul contract!
Soul contracts cannot be used interchangeably between spirit beasts and spirit beasts.
So, how did Qi Zhizhai control multiple spiritual beasts through a soul contract?
Unless Qi Zhizhai is not controlling those spiritual beasts...
But if Qi Zhizhai wasn't controlling those spiritual beasts, why would those spiritual beasts obey Qi Zhizhai's orders?
In Xiao Mian's mind, he recalled the battle between Guihai and the Armadillo Beast a few days ago.
Qi Zhizhai even gave the top-level magic weapon the Divine Bone Blowing to the armadillo beast.
During the battle with Guihai that day, the armadillo beast used the sacred bone blow to summon countless insects and launched a siege on Guihai.
Although he had no choice but to return to the sea in the end, the performance of the armadillo beast was extremely outstanding.
Could it be that not only these insects, but also the other spiritual beasts in Qizhizhai are under the control of the armadillo beast?
Therefore, Qi Zhizhai only has one soul contract in his body.
By controlling the armadillo beast, Qi Zhizhai can control other spiritual beasts...
In this way, it is clear.
Just thinking about it carefully, I feel like I took off my pants and farted.
It is obvious that he can plant a soul bond in the spirit beast's body, and he can command and prohibit it like an arm, so why should Qi Zhizhai bother to control it through the armadillo beast?
What is so weird about that armadillo beast that makes Qi Zhizhai trust him so much?
It seems that to solve the mystery of Qi Zhizhai, we need to start with the armadillo beast!
A few days later, as the Buddhist cultivators of Tianlong Temple headed by Master Mie Feng worked day and night, thousands of South Vietnamese troops each had a Talisman of Immortality in their hands.
The time is finally ripe for the South Vietnamese Army to launch a counterattack...
At this time, the South Vietnamese Army disagreed on how to launch a counterattack.
Although the generals of the Jin Sect had formulated a detailed battle plan, a group of South Vietnamese monks didn't buy it. What's more, they clamored to defeat the opponent in one go.
It was as if with the Talisman of Immortality in hand, he was invincible.
These monks are used to fighting alone!
Nanyue Prefecture was originally a gathering place for casual cultivators. Even Wan Zong City had relatively loose sect organizations within it, rather than hierarchical sect forces.
Therefore, although there are disputes in Wan Zongcheng from time to time, most of them are small conflicts between individuals, and there are very few major conflicts involving groups.
As for the casual cultivators who do not belong to Wan Zong City, they are used to living alone.
It is indeed difficult for them to pay attention to cooperation and deploy tactics.
In this regard, the other four armies of the Five-State Alliance are much stronger than South Vietnam.
To put it more harshly, the South Vietnamese Army was just a bunch of rabble!
If they really charge forward like this, even if they have the Talisman of Immortality in hand, the South Vietnamese Army will definitely be in trouble, not to mention that the Talisman of Immortality is still a consumable item!
If it doesn't work once, Xiao Mian won't be able to bear it if he does it again!
Although the Xiangfu Chamber of Commerce transferred these longevity trees to Xiao Mian at a discounted price of half sale and half free, the longevity trees themselves are eighth-level spiritual trees and are valuable.
In addition, the amount of longevity wood needed by the South Vietnamese Army is staggering. After all, the spiritual stones Xiao Mian spent this time were enough to scare a lot of people to death...
But in front of the Dragon Palace Treasure House, the scholar stopped moving forward because of lack of money.
This shows how financially distressed the South Vietnamese Army was.
How could Xiao Mian have the nerve to speak at this juncture?
It can only be - those who can work harder!
Besides, this immortality talisman is made of an eighth-level spiritual tree as its carrier, and it was refined day and night by Master Feng Mie, led by the Buddhist cultivators of Tianlong Temple. It can be said to be extremely precious.
If someone doesn't know how to cherish it, even if the scholar agrees, Xiao Mian will not agree!
While the scholar was convening the Nascent Soul Ancestors and the demon cultivators from the Nanyan Demon Realm to discuss strategic arrangements, Xiao Mian came to visit...
"It's really gratifying that the seniors here are rushing to formulate a counterattack strategy! I believe that in today's battle, our South Vietnamese Army will definitely win a complete victory!"
Xiao Mian said this as he glanced at the Nascent Soul Ancestors and the Great Transformation Demon in the inner hall.
This was originally a good news, but the disdainful look in Xiao Mian's words gave it a layer of embarrassing yin and yang aura.
"Hmph! Where did the young man come from! He broke into the inner hall without permission several times!"
But it was a Nascent Soul Ancestor with white hair and a childish face, glaring at Xiao Mian and shouting sternly.
Although this ancestor of Yuanying was born in Nanyue Prefecture, he was not affiliated with Wan Zong City. He was an ancestor of casual cultivators who had been practicing hard alone in the wilderness of Nanyue Prefecture.
If Xiao Mian remembered correctly, this person was known as Patriarch Moyan!
Faced with the deliberate harassment of Patriarch Mo Yan, Xiao Mian said nothing, but was rather shameless and took out the Ten Thousand Sects Holy Order in public again!
For a moment, although everyone in the inner hall looked unhappy, they all bowed and saluted.
On the contrary, the Red Spirit King and several transformed monsters in the Nanyan Demon Realm stayed out of the matter.
Patriarch Mo Yan would not be unaware of Xiao Mian's identity.
Last time, Xiao Mian had used the Ten Thousand Sects Holy Order and used chicken feathers as a token.
Since Patriarch Mo Yan wanted to play crazy and stupid, Xiao Mian didn't mind using the same trick again.
Speaking of respecting the old and loving the young, it depends on who you are talking to!
"Now, can we talk properly?"
"Xiao Mian! If you have anything to say, say it nicely!"
The scholar has always treated Xiao Mian as his junior. As Xiao Mian's cultivation level improves, the scholar even treats Xiao Mian as a cultivator of the same generation.
But he can be so tolerant and generous, but he can't ask others to do the same.
Along the way, the scholar saw and remembered Xiao Mian's contribution to the South Vietnam Army - the Four Seas Dragon Map, the Dragon Palace Treasure House, and even the Longevity Wood!
One by one, they are all amazing contributions that outsiders don't know about!
Therefore, the scholar knows that Xiao Mian has a pure heart for the South Vietnam State.
He also disliked the seniority of Mo Yan and others, but now that the war is imminent, for the sake of internal unity, the scholar had to come forward to make peace.
Who told him to be the leader of the South Vietnam Army this time?
After suppressing the arrogance of Mo Yan, Xiao Mian got straight to the point.
"May I ask all the seniors: Do you know who the enemy is now?"
"Ha! I thought you had something amazing to say! It turns out to be just a cliché! Isn't the enemy now the Three Temples of the East China Sea?"
Mo Yan took over the conversation.
"The three temples in the East China Sea are composed of the Demon God Temple, the Ghost God Temple and the Demon God Temple. May I ask Patriarch Mo Yan: Which temple is our enemy?"
"This..."
Patriarch Mo Yan paused when he heard the words, but the two scattered cultivators standing beside him expressed their opinions.
"The enemy is a large army of monsters, so it should be the Demon God Temple, right?"
"No! No! Since the enemy has used ghost magic such as the Ghost Spirit Demon Pill, in my opinion, it may be the Ghost God Temple that is causing trouble!"
"It won't be the Demon God Temple anyway!"
Another scattered cultivator, unwilling to be left behind, expressed his opinion.
These three Nascent Soul ancestors, like Patriarch Mo Yan, are scattered cultivators. One is called Patriarch Jingyuan, one is called Patriarch Qingkong, and one is called Patriarch Zhencang.
The three, together with Patriarch Mo Yan, are known as the Four Pillars of Nanyue.
But these three people said something, but there was no conclusion.
Seeing this, Xiao Mian shook his head and smiled bitterly...
"As the military strategists say: Know yourself and know the enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles! You seniors don't even know who our enemy is, and you still talk about counterattack? It's a foolish dream!"
"You! Do you know?"
"I'm just a newcomer, how can I be as good as you seniors who have already fought with the enemy for three hundred rounds?"
"Since you don't know, why are you talking so much!?"
"So, the most urgent task is not to counterattack, but to find out the details of the enemy!"
Looking at the high-level cultivators present, Xiao Mian explained the purpose of this trip.
Many Yuanying ancestors looked at each other, as if they had never thought about this problem at all...
This is what really gave Xiao Mian a headache!
In the cultivation world, the strong have always been respected.
However, none of the Yuanying ancestors present had strategic ideas.
How easy is it to let the Jindan warriors of the Zhenzong school command these Yuanying ancestors?
But if we allow this bunch of laymen who know nothing about military tactics and military affairs to occupy the decision-making circle so openly, the South Vietnam Army will be finished sooner or later!
Perhaps, this evil man will always be in the bottom...
Just as Xiao Mian was thinking this, King Chi Ling stepped out from the crowd.
"You, are you the kid known as Xiao Mian of South Vietnam?"
"Junior Xiao Mian! Meet Senior King Chi Ling!"
"No problem! There are not so many dead rules in my Nanyan Demon Realm!" Waving his hand, King Chi Ling glanced at the scholar provocatively, and said calmly: "It's rare that there is still a clear-headed person among you human cultivators, but because of your lower cultivation level now, you can't convince the crowd! What a pity! But I dare to assert: Among the high-level cultivators of the human and demon races present, I am afraid that only I and you can make him retreat when he sees difficulties!"
King Chi Ling's words highly evaluated Xiao Mian.
When the scholar heard this, although he also agreed, he also had an indescribable taste.
How ironic that a human cultivator needs the affirmation of the Southern Flame Demon King?
The scholar did not speak, and the other Nascent Soul ancestors did not dare to act rashly.
Although they were quite dissatisfied with the words of the Red Spirit King, their cultivation was there, and they were not confident enough to argue with the eighth-level demon king, the Red Spirit King.
This is exactly their sadness...
"Hmph! If you human cultivators can't formulate some decent strategic plans, don't blame me for leaving the Southern Flame Demon Realm and fighting on your own!"
Throwing down these words, the Red Spirit King took the three transformed demons and left with a wave of his sleeves.
At this moment, the Nascent Soul ancestors in the hall were really dumbfounded.
Although there were only four people, the Red Spirit King and the three transformed demons accounted for one-third of the combat power of the Southern Vietnam Army. If they parted ways like this, wouldn't it be a pity?
Pity is the second most important thing!
Among the five states’ coalition forces, the South Vietnam Army is already at the bottom. If it is further divided, it is hard to say whether it can suppress the monster army on the opposite side.
“Everyone! It seems that it is time to put down some unnecessary airs and face…”
The scholar’s words revealed an indescribable tiredness.
In the past three years, the scholar has worked hard, but he is always a little powerless.
After this incident, the other Yuanying ancestors also realized something and dared not speak carelessly. At that moment, the scholar ordered Kong Yuanren to ask him to summon the generals of the Zhenzong.
At the same time, Xiao Mian also sent a message to Kong Yuanren.
In the end, not only the three generals of the Zhenzong entered the inner hall, but also two people, who were Mu Qingfeng and Hu Sheng.
The Yuanying ancestors only thought that Mu Qingfeng and Hu Sheng were the generals of the Zhenzong, but the generals of the Zhenzong thought that Mu Qingfeng and Hu Sheng were other people called by the Yuanying ancestors.
In this way, Mu Qingfeng and Hu Sheng listened to the evolution and analysis of the battle situation.
In the end, the opinions of the three generals coincided with Xiao Mian's.
That is - the most urgent task is to investigate the enemy!
However, the specific tactics proposed by the three generals did not satisfy Xiao Mian.
According to their tactics, a scout team led by a quasi-Nascent Soul cultivator will be sent out, with ten Jindan top-level cultivators in each team, to disperse and spy on the enemy.
The scholar looked at Xiao Mian, and Xiao Mian shook his head slowly.
But at this time, Mu Qingfeng, who had been silent all the time, chuckled.
"If a Jindan cultivator is used as a scout and encounters a seventh-level monster, won't it be a one-way trip? In this case, is it to spy on the enemy or to fill the gaps in the enemy's teeth?"
The crisp laughter exploded in the inner hall, which was somewhat embarrassing...
Even the three generals of the Zhenzong stream blushed when they heard this.
Although Mu Qingfeng's words were unpleasant, they hit the nail on the head!
"Hmph! Fellow Daoist! Since you've said that, are you also a general? Do you have a better way?"
After being mocked by Mu Qingfeng, a general from the Zhenzong School retorted.
Mu Qingfeng was waiting for this sentence.
"Isn't this simple? With so many Yuanying ancestors present, they are definitely not afraid of the seventh-level transformed monster!" While speaking, Mu Qingfeng glanced at the several Yuanying ancestors present, and did not forget to add: "Even if you can't beat them, you should be able to run away, right?"
Another hit the nail on the head, the atmosphere in the inner hall became more and more awkward...
"You! You little girl, how dare you let Yuanying ancestors like me do scouts? Since you are not a general from the Zhenzong School, why are you here?"
Another ancestor Mo Yan was the first to jump out and question Mu Qingfeng.
He just didn't believe it: Mu Qingfeng also has the Ten Thousand Sects Holy Order! ?
"Yuanying Ancestor, why can't you do the work of a scout? Or, in your eyes, scouts are not worthy of being on the stage?"
It was Xiao Mian, who took a step forward and protected Mu Qingfeng.
Seeing that it was Xiao Mian, the fluctuations of Mo Yan's consciousness that were about to explode shrank back.
Although he didn't want to admit it, Mo Yan had to admit what King Chi Ling said.
If they really started fighting, he, Mo Yan, might not be Xiao Mian's opponent!
The conflict between Qi Zhizhai and Xiao Mian a few days ago was just a little bit, but the dignified Beast Master was forced back by a Jindan cultivator with a finger, which still became a laughing stock.
Mo Yan, the ancestor, didn't want to be the next laughing stock...
