Chapter 4000 Crisis of Trust

Latest website: Zhang Ruochen is naturally no stranger to Naihe Bridge.

Yan Wushen took control of one and used it as a soldier to fight against him many times.

However, according to the words of Grand Master, Xingtian Cliff is the real "Naihe Bridge".

At present, Zhang Ruochen is not sure whether Yan Wushen's words in the star domain where the Netherworld Dungeon is located are true or false. If it is true, then the master Yan Wushen has never seen is probably not the Ancestor of the Underworld, but the corpse nightmare who transformed into a fisherman in the star sea.

Where is the real Ancestor of the Underworld?

Is it really as Yan Wushen guessed that Ming Ancestor is among the monks they are familiar with?

Many thoughts flashed through Zhang Ruochen's mind, and many monks were listed as suspects, including many who were very close to him.

The higher you stand, the fewer people you can completely trust, and you have to be on guard against everyone. Because the price of mistrusting someone may lead to losing everything.

Zhang Ruochen said: "Master, you know the Kunlun world far better than I do. What do you think is the purpose of what the Xinghai fisherman said just now? Do you want me to fall into suspicion? Do you want to alienate me from the monks around me?" Or are there really hidden dangers within the Kunlun Realm?"

The owner of the God of Death Island did not immediately answer his question and said: "Ruochen, what you have experienced is still too little after all, and you can give everything to the monks around you. Afya's betrayal, Yu Linsheng revealed his true face, It must have had a huge impact on your heart. While we learn to be more cautious in the future, we should also respect our own heart."

"Don't use people you doubt, and don't use people you trust. If you are suspicious of the monks around you, stay away from him, guard against him, and remove him from the core. You may even use means to force him to reveal his flaws."

"But once you think you are worthy of trust, you must firmly believe in your own judgment, otherwise you will breed inner demons and fall into endless suspicion. For you who are still making great progress in practice, this is devastating. , will make your practice slow down or even stagnate."

"Actually, Master Yu Linsheng cannot make an accurate judgment on what Yu Linsheng said. The Kunlun world is too big, with hundreds of millions of monks, passed down through the ages, and many secrets hidden. If someone started the layout a long time ago, let alone It's you, it's me..."

Speaking of this, the owner of the God of Death Island shook his head and sighed.

The appearance of the ancestor-level existence gave him a sense of powerlessness in his heart.

"If the immortal wants to hide a secret, we won't be able to discover it. What we can discover may be the direction that others deliberately lead."

In the distance, monks related to Xingtian Cliff, such as Old Drunkard, Yu Yao, Bai Qing'er, Xu Wenzhi, Mandala Flower God, Ji Fanxin, etc. arrived.

The owner of the Death God Island looked at them and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "Ruochen, you have to understand that the immortals live much longer than us and can make plans before we are even born. This kind of The first-mover advantage is enough for them to hide all their flaws. When you doubt a person, you have to ask yourself, would an immortal make such a mistake? Will it leave such a mark on you?"

"Have a good chat with them. For you, the most important thing right now is to resolve the crisis of trust and not to chill the hearts of innocent people. It is king to kill the wrong person rather than let them go. It is the king's way, but it is definitely not the right way."

The owner of the God of Death Island left. Zhang Ruochen felt much happier when he recalled his words just now.

Yes, investigate what should be investigated and guard against what should be guarded, but blind suspicion will only make the situation worse.

As long as the cultivation level is strong enough, many things can be solved easily, and this is the most important thing.

Bai Qing'er said: "I met my senior brother. He went down to Xingtian Cliff, walked out of the Sword Realm, and headed north. I have never seen such confused and desperate eyes in his eyes. I called him, but He seemed to have lost his soul and didn’t respond at all.”

Zhang Ruochen said: "I will lock him with my mental power, and nothing will happen to him. Let him calm down first, and I will find an opportunity to help him get out of the predicament in his heart."

"What happened?" asked the old drunkard.

Zhang Ruochen looked at the people present one by one, without hiding anything, and said: "The person who caused Afya's rebellion was Yu Linsheng. It is probably guessed that his identity should be the corpse nightmare under the underworld ancestor, and his cultivation level may have reached To the realm of the ancestors. The cliff master should be the descendant of Yulong, and his whole family died at the hands of Yu Linsheng."

The old drunkard was very emotional and said: "If you hadn't said this, if it had been anyone else, I would have blown his head off."

"Wow!"

The old drunkard turned into a beam of light and rushed into the hole in the space that had not been completely repaired.

In any case, he must meet with the Xinghai angler in person and ask clearly. For so many years, the old drunkard has always regarded him as a close friend who can live and die together.

Zhang Ruochen didn't stop him, because it was impossible for the old drunkard to catch up with Yu Linsheng unless the other party took the initiative to see him.

Zhang Ruochen looked at Bai Qing'er and found that she was much calmer than he thought.

Bai Qing'er noticed Zhang Ruochen's gaze and said, "How does Brother Chen plan to deal with the monks from the Xingtianya faction?"

Xu Wenzhi and the Mandala Flower God, including several of the kings of hundreds of clans present, all looked nervous. They knew that Zhang Ruochen had another side that was decisive and decisive, and he never showed mercy to his enemies.

The Sword World suffered a huge loss because of the Star Sea Anglers. If we didn't kill a group of people, how could we explain it to the monks in the Thousand Worlds?

It is impossible for an emperor like Zhang Ruochen to shoulder the responsibility and be reviled by monks all over the world.

Zhang Ruochen said: "I plan to let you take over the big world and monks of the Xingtianya faction. I won't ask you how to conduct an internal investigation. I believe in your abilities and methods, but no matter what the result is, you must give me an answer within three years. "

Bai Qing'er said: "Can you still trust me?"

The seriousness on Zhang Ruochen's face disappeared and he smiled: "If I can't even trust you, who else can I trust in this huge sword world? Don't think too much about Yu Linsheng's secret. Even your senior brother has followed him for hundreds of years. You don’t even know about the existence of Wannian, let alone you?”

"Besides, if he is really the corpse nightmare under the Underworld Ancestor, then there is a high probability that he was responsible for the catastrophe caused by the Blood Curse of your Anti-God Clan back then. He might have been the one who personally carried out the operation."

After hearing this, Yu Yao, who was born in the Nishen clan and experienced what happened back then, fell into painful memories.

The elders whom I have always been grateful and respectful to are actually my enemies?

"Leave the World-Destroying Bell here with me. I expect that Ancestor Ming will take it back sooner or later."

After Zhang Ruochen got the World-Destroying Bell, he considered it for a moment and said, "Brahma Heart, it's up to you to take over the Starry Sky Camp of the Zhanzu Divine Army!"

"You know I don't want to join the Divine Army at all." Given thought.

Zhang Ruochen smiled bitterly: "But I have no one available now. This position of camp leader belongs to you. The morale and military strength of the Zhanzu Divine Army must be restored as soon as possible. Danger is everywhere. The future of the Zhanzu Divine Army not only depends on the relationship with the Half-Ancestor In a confrontation, and even more so with the ancestor, everyone has to work hard.”

After leaving Cangjin Continent, Zhang Ruochen went to Kunlun Realm to check Xiao Hei's injuries.

After treatment, Xiao Hei's physical injuries have fully recovered.

The trauma to the spirit and soul requires a long process of recovery, even if it takes the magic elixir refined by Taishang.

"Fortunately, I have the bloodline of both the Phoenix and the Immortal Blood Clan, and my vitality is unparalleled, otherwise I would have fallen." Xiao Hei sighed with emotion, but also felt a little proud.

As soon as he recovered a little from his injuries, he started pretending again and said, "I'm not bragging. I'm the only one in the world who can take Avya's arrow without dying."

Zhang Ruochen said: "But I heard that the Golden Burial White Tiger helped you carry most of the power."

The empress was in seclusion, and Zhang Ruochen once asked Chi Yao to temporarily be the camp leader of Thousand Bone Camp.

But because Chi Yao wanted to enter King Mountain to awaken the ancestor Jin Yi, the one who led the Thousand Bone Battalion to the battlefield in different time and space was Burying Jin White Tiger.

Xiao Hei was surprised: "Really? That arrow was too fast, and my soul and spirit were traumatized, so I don't know what happened specifically. I can't see the hope of revenge for this arrow, so I can only I can rely on you. Although she is pretty, but...you won't let her go, right?"

"Take good care of your injuries."

Zhang Ruochen still had many important things to deal with and had no time to talk nonsense with him. Seeing that his injury was stable, he was ready to leave.

Zhang Ruochen will never be merciful towards traitors.

Only by letting everyone see the fate of the traitors will they make more careful decisions when faced with inducements and life-and-death threats in the future.

Zhang Gushen and Queen Daixue were waiting outside.

Zhang Gushen stepped forward first to report and said: "Father, this time the Zhanzu Divine Army has killed a total of seventy-eight gods, including King Yu and eleven great gods, which is related to seventy great worlds and thousands of great gods. power. I have personally visited all the big worlds, sent the remains of the gods back, comforted the family and descendants of the deceased, promised resources to support them, and... I promised that I will do my best to protect them. "

Unable to speak Zhang Ruochen, Zhang Gushen immediately said: "I know that this will have huge consequences and will fetter countless people in the future. But I think that the world is dominated by the jungle, no matter where it is. If you don't intervene, the consequences will be unimaginable. How can I close my eyes? How can a living person dare to sacrifice his life to fight in the sword world from now on?"

Zhang Ruochen smiled happily: "You did a good job, but I'm afraid you can't protect so many people. I have my own arrangements for this matter, and I will not let the blood of any monk who fights for the Sword World be shed in vain. King Yu God fell, Your mother must be very sad, stay with her more, I will go to Tianchu Civilization to see her later."

After Zhang Gushen left, Zhang Ruochen's eyes fell on Queen Daixue and said: "I know the Queen's purpose, so don't have any worries. Afya is Afya, and you are you. From now on, the elves under the Sword Realm will be governed by You rule."

Queen Daixue secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The elves will never betray Di Chen's trust."

…

Eastern Region, Wangshan.

Zhang Ruochen stood under the huge body of the golden beast, releasing his spiritual power to communicate with it. But I didn't get any feedback, and it was like I fell into a deep sleep again.

Chi Yao stood beside him and said: "I speculate that the twenty-fourth level of heaven must be condensed to completely awaken the ancestor."

"I'll try."

Jie Tian had recovered a lot from his injuries and was very energetic. He mobilized the ancestral energy in his body and continuously poured into the body of ancestor Jin Yang.

After a while, there was no movement at all.

"It's strange, it's really strange. I can't wake it up even if I have the divine source of the Immovable King, why can you?" Jie Tian stared at Chi Yao suspiciously, feeling that there must be something fishy here.

Chi Yao glanced at Zhang Ruochen with a smile and said, "Because I have condensed the twenty-third level of heaven, but Mr. Jie has not yet."

She and Zhang Ruochen had already discussed the secrets they learned from the Ancient Divine Chaoling Yanzi and could not tell anyone.

After the incident between Afya and Yu Linsheng, the two became more determined on this point.

"We'll see."

Jie Tian was naturally unconvinced and left Wangshan.

I plan to spend the next period of time recovering from my injuries while rebuilding the Zhang family.

Unlike Zhang Ruochen, he can't care about the rights and wrongs of the thousand worlds on the Wudingshen Sea, and he doesn't care about the world's major events. He just wants his family to prosper and his people to prosper.

Zhang Ruochen said: "I have to go to Baiyi Valley. The next outbreak point must be there."

Chi Yao said worriedly: "But you are seriously injured and must take good care of yourself. Tianmu has already gone, and Emperor Fengdu has probably gone too. With them here, if Baiyi Valley can't be defended, it will be useless for you to go."

"Brother Chen, traces of the ancestors have appeared in the universe, but we have no control over the power that can compete with the ancestors. Everyone is staring at you now, because you are the one who has the most hope of stepping into the realm of the ancestors. Let's take good care of our injuries first. Then put all your energy into practice, and leave the rest to the Half-Ancestors and Heavenly Masters in this world!"

Zhang Ruochen thought for a long time, and finally nodded, and suddenly said: "This time when I went to the Netherworld Dungeon, I met a person, or the previous generation of the sundial's weapon spirit."

Chi Yao discovered that Zhang Ruochen had released the Tai Chi Four Symbols Seal to block Tianji's perception.

She asked: "How strong is he?"

"Tianzun level." Zhang Ruochen said.

Chi Yao said: "If we capture him, wouldn't there be a chance to restore the sundial to the point where it can support your cultivation?"

"The opponent's time and space attainments are terrifyingly high. The difficulty of capturing him alive is comparable to killing a half-ancestor. This matter is difficult to handle for the time being. Moreover, it is not yet clear whether he is an enemy or a friend."

Zhang Ruochen took out the Heavenly Demon's Ancestral Divine Source and said, "This Ancestral Divine Source was given to me by him. I still haven't figured out why he did this and what's the significance?"

Of course, Chi Yao could sense that the divine source contained the aura of the demon, and asked: "Is that the envoy of divine martial arts?"

Zhang Ruochen nodded.

Chi Yao said: "Perhaps he wants to use this ancestral divine source to lure you to the God Realm."

"What do you mean by this?" Zhang Ruochen asked.

Chi Yao said: "There are only two possibilities for the Heavenly Demon's ancestor divine source to appear in his hands. First, it was given to him by the Heavenly Demon. Second, the Heavenly Demon fell to the God Realm, and the divine source was dug out from the corpse. "

"We assume that he is indeed a friend rather than an enemy. If it is the first case, then he gave you the source of the devil to help you practice, or to lend your hand to help Tianmu, Chi Xingtian, and Gai Mie Wait for the magic monk to lend a helping hand."

"If it is the second situation, it means that the demon may not be dead. He has obtained the source of the ancestor, but he does not dare to rescue him. He wants to use your hand to go to the God Realm to rescue the demon."

"Of course, all these inferences are based on the fact that he handed over the source of the devil to you out of good intentions. If it was out of malicious intent, it would be very dangerous, and you must not go to the God Realm."

…

I think readers are arguing a lot about Star Sea Angler being the villain, and even say that a lot of new settings have been added for this purpose, but in fact there are not.

"The red crow tree is the most vicious plant in the universe", "Zombie Nightmare", "Destruction Clock", "God Realm"... are all settings from a long time ago.

Now is the final stage, and I don’t dare to add new settings at all. The book is already complex enough. I have tried my best to tell one thing in the simplest and straightforward way, and I don’t dare to go around too much.

In the past, I would definitely not have directly written that the Star Sea Angler was a Corpse Nightmare, but would have first written that he was the Underworld Ancestor.

It will not directly write that Wuying is the weapon spirit of the sundial. He will hide his identity first and then reveal it slowly.

…

Because there are so many characters and so many clues, all the twists and turns are simplified. All conspiracy calculations are straightforward and will not be reversed or reversed.

Of course, regarding the setting of the villain, if everyone can see that he is a villain, but the protagonist and the people in the book can't, isn't it too unreasonable? Therefore, the hidden immortal must be someone no one can guess, so the character in the book cannot be found.
