Chapter 291 Discovering clues(1/2)
Ancestor Mingnan was also confused and murmured: "Then what exactly is this situation?"
He looked at the others, only to see them all looking at him with wide eyes.
No one spoke.
But it seemed as if nothing had been said.
...We don't know, why don't we ask you for advice...
"..." Ancestor Mingnan also fell silent.
After a while, he asked again: "Is there anything else you discovered?"
After hearing this, everyone seemed to be thinking hard.
At this time, his eyes fell on one of them.
"Ducheng, do you have anything to say?"
Du Cheng was stunned for a moment when his ancestor called him by his name, but he quickly reacted.
"Ancestor, after you reminded me, I do have some ideas, but I don't know if they are right or not."
Ancestor Mingnan said: "That's what you say."
Du Cheng coughed slightly and said: "Unlike other fellow Taoists, in addition to the strength level and race group of the great demon, I also pay great attention to the male and female categories of the great demon every time I encounter it."
When he said these words, he attracted some incomprehensible looks.
Du Cheng coughed slightly again and said: "If my judgment is correct, those big monsters that suddenly disappeared should all be female."
As soon as he said these words, there were expressions of thinking and even shock on some people's faces.
Just when Patriarch Mingnan wanted to ask him why he came to such a judgment, another monk had already spoken:
"Ancestor, what Du Cheng said must be true. I thought about it carefully. The closer we are to now, the larger monsters we encounter, both in quantity and quality, are smaller than in the past."
"..." There is no need to say the words that Patriarch Mingnan didn't say anymore.
Is there some existence that secretly hunts the third-order monster and keeps an eye on the mother?
This situation is getting even weirder!
After a long time, he looked at everyone and asked softly: "What are you telling me for?"
No one answered, and all he saw were pairs of big, bright eyes, staring at him motionless.
In fact, Patriarch Mingnan probably understood their intention of notifying him of this matter.
First, the matter was too big and strange, and it would be impossible not to inform him, the strongest man in Wumenghai.
Of course, the most important thing is to take the lead in investigating and find out the reason.
Otherwise, everyone will probably feel unsure when operating in Wumenghai in the future.
But Patriarch Mingnan himself had no intention of getting involved in this matter.
Originally, he was dissatisfied with everyone forcibly interrupting his enlightenment. After understanding the strangeness of this matter, he didn't want to touch it anymore.
To be honest, he and Yu Lingjun are just "borrowing" now.
Even if there is a hidden danger behind this matter that can blow up the Qingxuan Territory, then it is Qingxuan Sect that should have a headache. Why is he in such a hurry?
Besides, is this something that can be found out if you want to?
Wumeng Sea has a radius of more than 30,000 miles and is a vast water area. Without more precise information, this kind of tracing is useless.
The biggest effect is probably to give them a reason to feel at ease.
What was wasted was his own time and energy, and he had to bear huge risks!
The years in Patriarch Mingnan's mind were spinning rapidly, and he quickly figured out all the doorways inside.
He coughed lightly, looked at the leader, the Qingxuan Sect monk who just called him "Uncle Master", and said:
"This is a serious matter. I must first ensure the stability of the Hidden Spirit Island... In this way, you can inform your ancestors about this news and see what they say."
"..." Qingxuanzong monk looked at Patriarch Mingnan with an innocent face, but felt speechless in his heart.
Most of the Qi-training and foundation-building monks who came out of the Ling Yu Sect with Patriarch Ming Nan were settled on this Hidden Spirit Island.
This is the weakest life gate of the Soul Controlling Army.
Ancestor Mingnan must first ensure the stability and safety of Qianling Island. There is nothing wrong with this.
If they make any more untimely requests, they will really offend people to death.
Can you really follow the advice of Patriarch Mingnan and bring this matter to several Patriarchs and let them solve it?
That's even more frustrating.
At this moment, an idea suddenly flashed in Patriarch Mingnan's mind, and he inexplicably thought of another thing.
He looked at the Qingxuan Sect monk, narrowed his eyes, and slowly said, "This shouldn't be the first time!"
Not only was the Qingxuanzong monk confused, but the other monks also had puzzled looks on their faces.
"Not the first time?"
"Has this happened before?"
Everyone's hearts followed Patriarch Mingnan's words, with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
Ancestor Mingnan looked at Du Cheng and asked:
"Ducheng, do you know how our combat power is distributed in Wumenghai, Tianqi Mountain, and Kurosawa Plains?"
Du Cheng nodded and said:
"I know, Qingxuanzong provided us with a piece of information at that time, and we used it to allocate combat power."
"What kind of information is that?"
"Uh... it should be a statistical summary of the various situations of the three evil bloodlines that Qingxuan Sect has carried out through various tasks over the years, including their prediction and assessment of the number and combat power of the third-order great demons surviving in these three places."
"Then do you think this information is accurate?"
"...It's basically accurate, right? The situation of Wumenghai and Kurosawahara is similar to the information in the data."
"Why did you miss Tianqi Mountain?"
"Yes, Tianqi Mountain, Tianqi Mountain!"
At this moment, Du Cheng had a look of shock on his face, his heart was filled with too many emotions, and he could only murmur in a low voice.
In fact, under the guided question and answer of Patriarch Mingnan, when Du Cheng said "that information", he had already vaguely realized something, but he still cooperated with Patriarch Mingnan's questions and went step by step.
Answered deeply.
It's like putting an originally inconspicuous fragment under a microscope with ever-increasing magnifications. As more and more details are revealed, without any further explanation, the audience has already realized what the problem is.
Among them, the most shocked ones were the several monks from Qingxuan Sect present.
Their eyes were all wide-eyed, their mouths were long enough to fit a duck egg in, and they felt like they were being fucked.
This feeling is probably similar to that of realizing that your own yard is actually located on a tomb after being reminded by others.
They didn't jump up in shock on the spot, it was already their determination that was amazing.
Ancestor Mingnan looked at them and said:
“At that time, no one took it too seriously because the result was good.
Some people think this is a harmless mistake, but more people don't think it is a mistake at all. Instead, they think it is the result of your habitual conservative personality.
Because the actual situation in Wumenghai and Kurosawa is more optimistic than the information you provided us, although the deviation is far less big than that in Tianqi Mountain.
This also shows that you have indeed consciously underestimated the threats of these three evil veins."
Speaking of this, Patriarch Mingnan paused for a moment, staring at the person at the head. It wasn't until the person felt that the pressure was getting bigger and bigger that he couldn't help but swallow, and then he said slowly:
"Now, do you still think this is just a mistake?"
"This..." Qingxuanzong monk didn't know how to answer.
"The changes in Wumenghai are happening right under your noses.
The changes in Tianqi Mountain probably happened before the beast tide completely broke out, that is, before we came to Qingxuan Territory."
"Is one a coincidence, and two are still a coincidence?"
"this……"
"So, we are really powerless in this matter, and you have to solve it yourself."
Ancestor Mingnan leaned back slightly and looked completely relaxed.
Deep in my heart, there is a feeling of relief and joy of completely getting rid of a hot burden.
All the Qingxuanzong monks were either stunned, dumbfounded, frowning, or worried...
Seeing their appearance, Du Cheng suddenly explained from the side:
"You don't want to be like this either. Don't you think this is a good thing?"
To be continued...
