"Milord, you'll understand in the future that Duwusili is a schemer and extremely suspicious. It's impossible to deceive such a top general with ordinary methods. In order to trick him step by step, one must use some extraordinary methods. If my guess is correct, after seeing the formation phenomena of the army and the formation phenomena in the sky, Duwusili's suspicions should have dissipated and he should have begun to cultivate. "
Wang Chong stood up from the giant rock and lightly jumped down, his expression relaxed.
"… If you want a lion to take the bait, you must let the lion eat the meat, and the hook must be buried in the meat!"
Cheng Qianli was taken aback, but then he understood.
The Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena!
This thought flashed through Wang Chong's mind. This was the content of the letter he had sent to Duwusili.
In the apocalyptic era, although the earth had withered and the people had been plunged into misery and suffering, martial arts had reached an unprecedented peak. In the process of the emergence of the formation phenomena, countless geniuses had contributed their own wisdom and researched different versions of it.
Among all the versions of formation phenomena, there was one that everyone in the apocalyptic era knew of. It was the version developed by a recluse called Master Liuxuan. To a certain extent, the fame of this version even surpassed the true version of formation phenomena.
The reason for this was not because this version of formation phenomena was powerful, nor was it because there was something special about it. Rather, it was because it was the most misleading version of all the later versions of formation phenomena.
In the early stages of the research and development of formation phenomena, there were many difficulties and many problems, and the progress was unsatisfactory. There were even many people who believed that formation phenomena had already been lost and that it was impossible for them to reappear. It was at this time that the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena appeared.
The obvious enhancement effect and the vast phenomena left everyone gasping in amazement. Many martial artists who were studying formation phenomena put down their work and went over in admiration. After the initial verification of the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena, this version was rapidly disseminated in the army, and Esteemed Six Mysteries was also greatly praised.
Because of this version, the research and development of formation phenomena came to a complete halt. At that time, everyone believed that formation phenomena had finally seen the light of day and that the Six Mysteries version was the ultimate form.
But soon, this version of formation phenomena revealed its massive natural flaw and terrifying consequences. It was as if there was a path that led straight to the top of the mountain in a dense forest filled with thorns. Everyone's joy was imaginable, but no one expected that this path would lead to a high cliff.
After cultivating formation phenomena for one to three months, the various consequences of the Six Mysteries version began to appear, including chaotic Stellar Energy, knotted meridians, and reversed blood qi flow. After a period of time, the symptoms rapidly worsened, and in the end, a large number of people who cultivated formation phenomena began to suffer from cultivation deviation, their bodies becoming paralyzed.
This scene shocked everyone, and the army issued an urgent order to stop all cultivation of the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena. But the consequences had already been created.
At the beginning, everyone believed that there was some flaw or flaw in the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena, and everyone invested their intelligence in the hope of finding the problem and fixing the flaw. But reality was completely different from what they had imagined. The more they studied the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena, the more they discovered that it had an innate flaw that could not be fixed. It had completely led everyone onto a different path, and they would never be able to reach the true end. The deeper they cultivated, the higher their strength increased, the greater the disaster they would suffer, to the point where it was difficult to turn back, and they had completely lost the chance to turn back.
One, two, three … More and more people discovered the flaw in the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena, and in the end, even Esteemed Six Mysteries discovered the problem.
Esteemed Six Mysteries was filled with guilt. Although he had good intentions and hadn't intended for this to happen, the damage he had caused was beyond his wildest imagination. No one blamed him, but not long after, Esteemed Six Mysteries disappeared without a trace, and no one knew where he had gone.
After the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena, everyone learned their lesson and began their research anew. Although it had taken a long time and been delayed by Esteemed Six Mysteries' matter, with everyone's combined strength, the ancient power of formation phenomena had seen the light of day once more.
A person like Duwusili was as cunning as a fox, and if he wasn't given some benefits, he would never take the bait. More importantly, Wang Chong knew that long before the apocalypse, Duwusili had sent people into the interior to search for those people who were researching formation phenomena and rob them. Later on, when the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena appeared, Duwusili had been one of the people who had actively cultivated it.
For a person who was so obsessed with formation phenomena to encounter the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena, the effects could be imagined. Now that Wang Chong had given him the Six Mysteries version of formation phenomena, it would be strange if Duwusili could hold back.
If everything went as expected, once Duwusili began to cultivate it, the flaws of the Six Mysteries version would begin to show on Duwusili. This Celestial Wolf Great General of the Western Turks would find it difficult to maintain his peak Great General level! Everything had been decided the moment Duwusili had kidnapped Chen Bin. All that was left was to wait for the final result.
"So Duwusili was already part of your plan. Since this is the case, I will report this to Lord Protector-General in a little while! In the future, there will be no need to send anyone to investigate the Western Turks. "
Cheng Qianli's expression relaxed, and he paused for a moment before continuing.
"That's right, there's another matter. A special guest has come to the City of Talas. Lord Protector-General has asked me to invite you over."
"Oh?"
Wang Chong froze, his curiosity piqued. Talas was currently a dangerous place for military strategists, and he truly had no idea who would come at a time like this, much less make Gao Xianzhi send Cheng Qianli to invite him.
"Let's go."
… …
The mood in the main hall of Talas was solemn. The moment Wang Chong stepped in, he immediately saw the 'guest' that Cheng Qianli had spoken of. But even though Wang Chong had mentally prepared himself, he still couldn't help but be flabbergasted at the sight of this guest.
The guest that Cheng Qianli spoke of was around 1.8 meters tall, with a slender figure, deep blue eyes, long wavy hair, and a thick beard. He stood out like a sore thumb in the hall. In terms of appearance, this person was completely different from the Tang people. On the contrary, he was rather similar to the greatest foe of the Tang Dynasty, the Arabs.
But a moment later, Wang Chong's eyes flickered as he glanced at the cloth this person was wearing, a thought flitting through his mind.
"Lord Protector-General, this is …"
Wang Chong turned his head to Gao Xianzhi, who was seated at a long table in the hall, a questioning look in his eyes.
"Wang Chong, you've come at just the right time. Not too long ago, this person charged into the city and was almost mistaken for an Arab and killed by our men. This person kept shouting and acting strangely, so we went to find Won Shu-young. Won Shu-young told us that he was not an Arab, but a Khorasani, and that he had important information to tell us. But he always emphasized that he would only speak if he saw you. Otherwise, he would rather die than speak. "
"Oh?"
A hint of surprise flashed through Wang Chong's eyes, and he quickly turned to the Khorasani.
"As expected."
When he had first seen this person, Wang Chong had already guessed that he really was a Khorasani. But there was one thing that Wang Chong did not understand. Khorasan was extremely far to the west of Talas, and it was one of the heartland of the Arabian Empire. Even the merchants of the Tang Dynasty on the Silk Road rarely went there, much less Wang Chong.
Wang Chong truly did not understand how these Khorasani, whom he had never interacted with, knew of him and insisted on meeting him.
"Marquis, I've asked around. He truly is a Khorasani. I traveled there in my early years, and the Khorasani are different from the Arabs. He might really be able to provide us with some assistance. "
A familiar voice rang out beside his ear. It was Yuan Shusong, who was dressed in a loose robe and had a cultured and refined aura.
"You are that young commander of the Tang Dynasty?"
At this moment, the statue-like Khorasani in the hall suddenly spoke, his green eyes staring at Wang Chong. Won Shu-young was taken aback, and he quickly took on the role of translator.
"You know of me?"
Wang Chong nodded in surprise.
"No!"
To his surprise, the Khorasani shook his head.
"But I've heard of you. You defeated the Governor of Iron and Blood Abu Muslim at Talas. Abu Muslim is an important minister of Arabia and also the foe of our Khorasan. He has never suffered a defeat in his life and has destroyed countless countries. For you to defeat him means that you are a supreme hero. "
Wang Chong froze for a moment, and then he began to smile. This was the first time he had heard such a high evaluation from a Khorasani to the west of the Cong Mountains.
"Our people said that you wanted to see me and that you have extremely important information. What is this information you speak of?"
Wang Chong got straight to the point.
"Abu Muslim is our foe. It was he who led the Arab army to destroy our Sassanid Dynasty. While you were fighting with the Arabs on the front lines, the Arab Mamelukes and other soldiers were slaughtering our people in the rear. All of Khorasan is littered with corpses. You and us, we have a common enemy! "
The tall and thin Khorasani said, his eyes red.
Everyone in the hall glanced at each other in surprise. No one had expected such a thing to happen in Khorasan behind the Arabs. As for what Wang Chong had sensed.
Few people in this era knew of Khorasan. As for the Sassanid Dynasty, very few people, including Gao Xianzhi, knew of it. But Wang Chong knew that at another time, this name had a thunderous and even more illustrious name: Persia!
But what moved Wang Chong the most was not this. Rather, it was the words that the Khorasani had mentioned.
"The Mameluke Army! No wonder I haven't seen them. They were suppressing the Khorasani uprising in the rear! "
