Wang Ling had thought that there weren't many things in the world that could shock him, but he was still taken aback by General Yi's words.
Wang Ling was stupefied. He had always had a poker face since birth, but at that moment, he was genuinely shocked by General Yi to the point where he revealed a rare expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn't stop twitching.
Was there such a thing …
Even if the skeleton in the crystal coffin was an imitation, it was still an imitation of Huaxiu's founding ancestor!
Would it really be okay to do this?
At that moment, Wang Ling and the old man stood in the pit, the protective immortal light emitted by the old man illuminating the entire pit. Wang Ling could clearly see General Yi's calm expression. "So, everything is for the sake of catching that old devil. He's found a body double and wants to leave the stone ghost mask. If he really succeeds in reconstructing his body, I'm afraid that Huaxiu nation won't be peaceful anymore … Furthermore, there's all kinds of evidence that this devil still has remnants in the world, and they aren't weak."
Wang Ling completely understood now. It turned out that this had been a trap from the very beginning.
Because a monitoring chip had been inserted into the old devil's soul, he had wanted to cooperate with the Master of Shadow Stream Jiang Liuyue, and the series of events that had unsealed the stone ghost mask to the current reconstruction of his physical body … General Yi actually knew all about it.
What was even more frightening was that if General Yi had hidden the monitoring chip in the Palm Sword back then, this trap had actually been laid out a thousand years ago.
Wang Ling wasn't a gossipy person.
Even if General Yi hadn't said anything, Wang Ling actually didn't care at all. The reason why he wanted to fix that old devil was entirely because the other party had disturbed his life.
Not only that, it had also seriously delayed his studies!
This was what Wang Ling couldn't stand the most …
Of course, Wang Ling also understood very well why General Yi had told him so much.
General Yi completely regarded him as one of his own; he wasn't joking when he said he wanted to take him in as a disciple, he was serious!
"Do you know who made that monitoring chip?"
It seemed like there was still some time before the final plan to pull in the net, so General Yi simply sat cross-legged on the ground with a very calm expression on his face. "In our Huaxiu nation's Cultivation Academy of Science, there is a youngster known as the strongest brain. This chip was developed according to his formula and could guarantee that it would not be detected by the devil. I'll introduce him to you if there's a chance next time. "
Wang Ling: "…"
General Yi looked at the time and realized that there was still plenty of time left. "In a while, the operation to pull in the net will begin. This old man will make the first move to lure that devil out, and the rest of the hundred or so people will join forces to lay down the Five Elements Grand Array and capture that devil! Previously, the demon escaped because of the Purple Gold Gourd. As long as we trap him in the array, he won't be able to escape even with the Purple Gold Gourd. "
Wang Ling seemed to have learned of big news from these few words.
No wonder there were more than a hundred instructors entering the small world this time. It turned out that all of this was planned.
Furthermore, judging from the old man's words, Wang Ling felt that the original purpose of the survival contest this time had probably been to attract the old devil.
General Yi had long known that this devil wanted to absorb vitality to reconstruct his body …
"This old guy is really slow now, but that turning array isn't easy to set up."
General Yi sighed and was a little impatient from waiting. Then, he straightaway took out his phone and started to surf the Internet.
Wang Ling glanced at it and realized that it was a chat window. General Yi was using an account with the ID "Nine Times In One Night" to chat with someone else.
Wait a minute …
Nine Times In One Night?
Wasn't this the Nine Times Man from that chat group?
The Nine Times Man who had claimed to be a rookie in the chat group back then, and who had bought a fake Sunflower Manual online and been duped into buying it!
Wang Ling found it a little inconceivable … he had never expected this Nine Times Man to actually be General Yi!
"This is a group I joined a few years ago, and it's pretty interesting."
General Yi said as he scrolled through the screen, "A lot of people think that us old guys in the cultivation circle are a bunch of aloof poker faces, but this old man has discovered a problem. In fact, as we get older, as our cultivation deepens, our playfulness also increases."
Wang Ling: "…"
General Yi: "Sometimes, if you create a smurf account to join this kind of chat group and communicate more with the juniors, you might reap unexpected rewards, and even gain new enlightenment on the meaning of Dao."
Wang Ling: "…"
Actually, Wang Ling's impression of the Nine Times Man in the group was that he had been a very lively and amusing person from the very beginning. Furthermore, General Yi himself was also an Old Urchin, so they were quite compatible in this aspect.
However, General Yi was probably the only one who could disguise himself as a rookie and sneak into the chat group to chat with the juniors in the circle.
This chat group had been created by Immortal Toya for some of the founding elders and star active users of the cultivation forum. It could be said that everyone in the group was a "trusted aide." Immortal Toya had investigated the identities of those who could join the group behind their backs and verified the relevant information before letting them in.
As one of the Ten Founding Generals of Huaxiu nation, it was simply too easy for General Yi to forge an identity.
After chatting for a while, General Yi began to talk to Wang Ling about some of the people in the chat group one by one. "The group leader, Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal, was actually the disciple of a good friend of mine back then. I didn't expect him to grow up so much in the blink of an eye. His chivalrous spirit, as well as his fondness for getting into a dead end when it comes to inexplicable things … he's in line with his shifu. "
When General Yi said this, Wang Ling inexplicably thought of those broccoli that Grenade-Throwing Senior Immortal had been thinking about.
"Immortal Toya, a level nine alchemist. Back in the Xiao clan's alchemist competition, he single-handedly challenged the Xiao clan's top ten alchemists and returned victorious."
General Yi seemed to know everyone's story very well. "This junior's future is bright. This old man has always wanted to find an opportunity to meet him, so for this survival contest, I had Little Dakang recruit him to be the chief instructor. "
Wang Ling: "…"
Little … Little Dakang?
"There's also the group manager, Cailian Zhenren. To be honest, she gave this old man a lot of inspiration in this operation to capture the old devil this time. But I'm still most interested in this person … "
Saying this, General Yi swiped the screen, and finally locked onto one person in the list of group members.
