Chapter 944: Dream Play
"Your Majesty! Your Majesty, come catch me, I'm here!"
"Your Majesty, look over here! Are my legs to Your Majesty's liking? If you catch me, they will be yours."
Little Wei Yuan shook his head vigorously, recovering from the momentary trance. But he had clearly heard some sounds, very real, yet Little Wei Yuan just couldn't remember where he had heard them.
After coming to his senses, Little Wei Yuan's spiritual sense reconnected with the Human World Renjian Yanhuo, continuing to search for the inner demon.
The efficiency of the Human World Renjian Yanhuo was incredibly high. At this moment, over 67,000 village heads had been selected, responsible for supervising a total of nearly two million mortals. All village heads were directly linked to the immortal plants, and they could report to the immortal plants in real-time as soon as there was an abnormality.
In just a quarter of an hour, over 3,000 abnormal behaviors were discovered. Upon investigation, nine types and thirty-one pieces of various Imperial Jade Seals were seized, along with sixteen copper men, over sixty stone tablets, and over six hundred anti-poems, though there were over two thousand authors. Many mortals didn't know how to write poems, so they had to copy others' and then change a word or two, claiming they wrote them themselves.
Little Wei Yuan didn't have time to carefully distinguish at this moment, so he simply sent them all to the Yellow Springs Cave Heaven for reincarnation. As it turned out, the inner demon was not among these people.
In an instant, the rebels in the Human World Renjian Yanhuo suffered unprecedented heavy losses, and the world was cleared, but there was still no sign of the inner demon. Having no other choice, Little Wei Yuan decided to focus on the battle in the firmament first, minimizing the damage to the Human World Renjian Yanhuo while continuing to investigate the inner demon.
At this time, Little Wei Yuan was sitting cross-legged on the Xiancheng Square, with large arrays already set up all around to prevent the inner demon from escaping. Zhang Sheng, Seeing Ji Liuli, Bao Yun, and others took turns on duty, discussing and researching countermeasures day and night.
Feng Chutang specifically returned to the Primeval Palace to consult the classics, and then found that, as expected, it had never been heard of that one would encounter an inner demon tribulation when ascending to the Master Yu Jing.
The heavenly tribulation when advancing to the Master Yu Jing is particularly important, and generally, the greater the power within the range that can be endured without dying, the better. The stronger the heavenly tribulation, the better the body-tempering effect.
If there is no powerful Dharma body, the moment the Mind-Reflection World takes shape, it will crush the sea of consciousness, leading to death by explosion. This is the most common cause of death when advancing to the Master Yu Jing.
But Little Wei Yuan actually encountered an inner demon tribulation, which was truly incredible.
True inner demons all come from outside the sky, and generally, it is only after ascending to immortality that one might encounter them in the tribulation that occurs every thousand years. Fortunately, although the Primeval Palace had been established for a short time, the number of immortals was quite large, and there were all kinds of insights on ascending to immortality, and the records about inner demons were also quite complete, not inferior to any aristocratic family, firmly in the top three in the world.
At the moment, Feng Chutang simply exchanged for a copy of all the materials and sent them to the Azure Void through the Merit Sub-Hall. Zhang Sheng led the cultivators to study them separately and think of countermeasures. Little Wei Yuan, on the other hand, was reading the materials while resisting the erosion from outside the sky.
In the blink of an eye, more than a month passed. Little Wei Yuan had read most of the materials and recorded them all into the Human World Renjian Yanhuo. During this month, the battle in the firmament fell into a stalemate, mainly because the combination of Han Li, Jun Weizhi, Fu Yao, and Lei Ling was extremely sharp, and with the blessing of the immortal plants, they were simply invincible, killing more than ten giant beasts alone, and countless small monsters.
Seeing Ji Liuli, Zhang Sheng, and others constantly entered the Human World Renjian Yanhuo through dreams to observe the purple spots in the sky, and even risked entering to watch the battle to verify what they had learned.
After a month of research, the cultivators finally developed several plans and prepared to try them out one by one. Among the three mature plans, two were proposed by Zhang Sheng and Seeing Ji Liuli respectively, and the third was made by Feng Tingyu leading a group of academicians from the Research Institute.
Among the three plans, in terms of maturity and feasibility, it was actually Feng Tingyu's plan that was the most feasible, which was truly beyond Little Wei Yuan's expectations.
The situation was urgent, so Little Wei Yuan didn't dare to be slow and immediately implemented it in the Human World Renjian Yanhuo.
The efficiency of the Human World Renjian Yanhuo was extremely high. It took less than half a day to isolate all mortals into groups of 100,000, and then they were assembled in turns to take an exam. After assembling, paper and pen appeared in front of everyone, with questions on the paper, and they had to answer within a quarter of an hour, with the word count meeting the standard.
The questions were very simple, totaling only three:
1. Briefly describe the method of invading the Mind-Reflection World;
2. Possible resistance methods encountered during invasion and corresponding countermeasures;
3. Discuss the inevitability of the inner demon's failure.
The mortals had long been accustomed to obeying orders, and coupled with the fact that most of the troublemakers had already been sent for reincarnation, everyone answered the questions quietly and tried their best. After answering, the paper would be automatically collected by the immortal plants. After 100,000 people finished answering, the next group of 100,000 followed. There was absolutely no contact between those who had answered and those who hadn't.
The exam proceeded very quickly. According to this trend, it wouldn't even take a day for everyone to finish answering the questions. Those who hadn't taken the exam fought against the otherworldly enemies normally, and those who had finished had specially designated combat areas, which never overlapped.
Just as the fifth group finished the exam, a terrifyingly scorching divine sense swept across the entire Human World Renjian Yanhuo! Immediately afterward, the Creation Immortal Venerable's terrible laughter resounded through the world: "Ahahahahaha! You finally showed your true colors, didn't you?"
Numerous terrifying auras rose at the same time, flying toward a certain place in the city. A very ordinary middle-aged man in the city suddenly straightened his body, his momentum instantly towering like a famous mountain or river!
He sneered and said in a somewhat strange tone: "You use such conspiracies and tricks, what kind of heroes are you? I feel ashamed for you! Today, there is only death, what is the big deal?"
These words were resonant. Facing the numerous incoming terrifying auras, he was not afraid at all, leaping up to meet the rolling immortal light, actually going against the current!
Little Wei Yuan, in coordination with all the immortal plants, struck with a single blow. The power was so terrifying that the middle-aged man's flesh and bones were instantly destroyed in the immortal light, turning into flying ash. A wisp of black energy appeared, and then was refined into nothingness by the immortal light amidst screams.
In the Xiancheng, Little Wei Yuan opened his eyes and laughed three times toward the sky, feeling extremely happy.
The cultivators all looked sideways, and Xiaoyu asked, "Have you captured the inner demon?" ===== CHAPTER 945 =====
