Faced with Meng Zhou's question, Mu Hanyu did not answer immediately and looked at Yin Youyi beside him.

Yin Youyi nodded and said: "We do know about this object, but before this time, we didn't know that it was born in such an altar incense burner. We thought it was a special kind of spiritual mineral gem."

Yin Youyi said this with a very sincere attitude, and Meng Zhou couldn't tell whether what he said was true or false.

However, his answer successfully blocked the possibility of Meng Zhou going further on this topic.

Meng Zhou did not pursue the sensitive topic of "why they knew", but asked:

"Then how much do you know about this Void God Crystal? Why does Fellow Daoist Guangcheng want to rob this thing without even risking his life?"

Yin Youyi said:

"We don't know much about this Void God Crystal, but I have some guesses as to why Fellow Daoist Guangcheng did this."

"Why?" Meng Zhou asked.

"If the Virtual God Crystal is used on some special spirit puppets, it can give the spirit puppets stronger spirituality, and more complete and rich emotional changes..."

Having said this, Yin Youyi paused, looked at Meng Zhou, and said softly:

"In other words, the spiritual puppets who have used the Void God Crystal are closer to real people in terms of their intelligence and thinking methods."

Hearing this, Meng Zhou suddenly felt enlightened.

As a spirit master whose professional level has reached the limit of the third level, Meng Zhou understands what this means even better than Yin Youyi.

The most important criterion for judging the level of a spirit master is the level of the spirit puppet's intelligence.

The higher the level of the spirit master, the higher the spiritual intelligence of the spirit puppet, and vice versa.

On the other hand, if the spiritual intelligence of the spirit puppet made by the spirit master becomes higher, it also means that the professional level of the spirit master becomes higher.

As the ancestor of the Spirit Controlling Sect, Patriarch Guangcheng has a very high standard as a Spirit Controller, and he is basically at the top of the third level of Spirit Controllers.

There are objective environmental restrictions here, making it difficult for him to take the next step forward on his own.

Not only him, but other ancestors of other sects who are at the peak of pill formation and whose professional level is at the third level are all suffering from the same trouble.

Now, the Virtual God Crystal provides him with another option.

Instead of relying on oneself, one can take advantage of external forces to further his attainments as a spirit master.

——For Patriarch Guangcheng, who is already at the top of the third level of spiritual masters, this "further step" basically means that he has successfully crossed the threshold from the third level to the fourth level.

This means that with these Void God Crystals, Patriarch Guangcheng has a high chance of becoming a fourth-level spirit master!

"No wonder he is so desperate." Meng Zhou thought in his heart.

If Patriarch Guangcheng really takes this step and allows him to successfully create a fourth-level spiritual puppet that is comparable to the Nascent Soul——

If the requirements were lower, even if he could only produce a quasi-fourth-level spirit puppet equivalent to a fake baby due to material limitations and shortcuts, he would still become the undisputed number one in the five domains.

More importantly, the shackles imposed by the environment will be completely broken as he takes this step!

Although this cannot directly allow him to break through from the peak of the Dan Formation to the Nascent Soul level, the resistance to his progress will undoubtedly be much smaller, making it possible to truly advance to the Nascent Soul realm.

Such an opportunity is indeed worth risking your life for.

At this moment, Meng Zhou no longer had any doubts about Patriarch Guangcheng's choice.

Suddenly some inexplicable emotions welled up in my heart.

Meng Zhou believed that Patriarch Guangcheng was fully aware of the danger of this action at the moment he rushed out.

There is a high possibility of trying to snatch food from a tiger's mouth, failing, or even being killed on the spot.

The probability of success is very small.

But this "very, very small" success rate was unprecedentedly high for him.

He has never been so close to breaking through to the fourth level of the Spirit Controller and advancing to the realm of Nascent Soul.

So, at that moment, he rushed forward without hesitation.

And the result was an unexpected failure.

Thinking of this, Meng Zhou had only one sentence in his mind: "If you hear the Tao in the morning, you will die in the evening."

Although the ancestor of Guangcheng is not dead, he is not much different from dead now.

Just as Meng Zhou's thoughts were swirling in his mind, Yin Youyi's voice interrupted his thoughts.

"I think fellow Taoist Mingnan should also know the secret of the Virtual God Crystal.

After they learn this from fellow Taoist Mingnan, they should come back.

...and Fellow Taoist Mingnan, he should be crazy."

Having said this, Yin Youyi paused for a moment, and when Meng Zhou came back to his senses, he reminded:

"When the time comes, you have to be more careful."

Meng Zhou nodded slightly, understanding what Yin Youyi meant.

For Mingnan Ancestor, the Virtual God Crystal is the key "key" for the career of the Spirit Controller to break through from the third level to the fourth level, and for the cultivation level to break through from the Dan Formation to the Nascent Soul.

In the face of such a huge temptation, it is normal to "go crazy".

Even if others did not get more information from Ancestor Mingnan, it was enough for them to realize how valuable the Virtual God Crystal was.

At that time, for whatever reason, they will come to you again.

——Because everyone has seen that all the Void God Crystals that came out of the broken bottle entered the sea of ​​consciousness of Ancestor Guangcheng.

——And now, after Meng Zhou's proper treatment, there is no trace of the Void God Crystal in Patriarch Guangcheng's sea of ​​consciousness.

So, as the last monk who has penetrated deeply into Guangcheng Patriarch's sea of ​​consciousness for a long time, it is normal for him to be "attentioned" again.

Even strictly speaking, this does not mean that the Void God Crystal is really in his hands.

——Perhaps he slipped away after making great achievements?

Obviously, such reasons cannot make people like Ancestor Mingnan settle down.

If you think about it from his perspective, even if there is only one tenth chance, it is enough to stick to him.

Meng Zhou nodded lightly.

"I see."

With that said, he looked at Yin Youyi and Mu Hanyu and thanked them: "Thank you for the reminder."

At this moment, Meng Zhou thought of the way Qing Ye hesitated to speak before the Qingxuan Sect and others left.

I thought to myself, does this guy also want to remind himself?

Does this mean that he also understands this characteristic of the Virtual God Crystal?

Therefore, they are pretending to be stupid just like Yin Youyi and Mu Hanyu of Hehuan Sect.

So, who are the members of the Jinding Sect and the Alchemy Sect?

Do you really not know, or are you just pretending not to know?

"Fuck me!" Meng Zhou suddenly said in his heart.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of the scene where everyone was trying to shirk "humility" from each other when they were talking about the specific soul search.

At that time, Meng Zhou thought they just didn't want to "get blood with their own hands", but now, they have a completely new interpretation.

It is conceivable that if someone had jumped out and done this at that time, then that person would have been suspected of being a "liquor in the melon field" just like myself.

This is only one aspect.

On the other hand, once the soul search of Patriarch Guangcheng is carried out, whether to reveal the information about the Virtual God Crystal becomes a question.

Whether you choose to speak out or not, there seems to be a problem.

If I didn't say, "Nothing was found," would others think too much?

If you choose to say it, to what extent should it be said?

Moreover, will this cause other people to have new doubts - "The state of Patriarch Guangcheng is like this. Is this information really retrieved from his sea of ​​consciousness? Is it possible that this person and Guangcheng are in such a state?"

Like Ancestor Cheng, have you known about the existence of the Void God Crystal for a long time?"

Under this "fog", the chain of suspicion circulates repeatedly and is simply unsolvable.

It’s not true if you say it, and it’s not true if you don’t say it.

Therefore, the best way is to "exercise humility" and not search for souls.

Thinking of this, Meng Zhou got goosebumps all over his body.

Of course, these are just his conjectures, and he is not sure that this is really the case.

But when Meng Zhou thought about such a possibility, it was enough to make his heart tremble.

However, this emotion comes and goes quickly.

It didn't take long for Meng Zhou to calm down.

Regardless of whether this possibility exists or not, it doesn't really bother him.
