Chapter 1577: Veins
As Shen Ge moved, the others also reacted and hurriedly followed.
Zuo Zicong was running fast while muttering in a low voice.
"Oh, Brother Qing, if we had known that the people of Tianding Sect were going to use those Yuanjing to restart Yuanding, we should have severely punished Yi Dazui!"
"I was careless, I was careless!"
After saying that, there was no response. Zuo Zicong realized that something seemed to be missing next to him, so he turned around and saw that Duan Qing had stopped behind him without moving.
"Brother Qing, what are you doing? Hurry up and catch up!" Zuo Zicong shouted anxiously.
Duan Qing still did not respond, but his mind kept echoing what his master Zuo Yuanji had just said.
Living sacrifice... Living sacrifice!
Suddenly, Duan Qing had a flash of inspiration, and a bad premonition arose in his heart, and then he turned around and ran down the mountain without saying a word.
Zuo Zicong was stunned and wanted to call Duan Qing, but Duan Qing did not give him this opportunity at all and soon disappeared at the corner of the road.
Looking around, Zuo Zicong sighed helplessly and chased after Shen Ge and the others.
With Duan Qing's strength, as long as he didn't mess around, there shouldn't be any danger.
Although he couldn't fly on Tongtian Mountain, because the obstacles on the way here had been destroyed by Shen Ge, Duan Qing's way down the mountain was unimpeded. Not long after, he returned to the foot of Tongtian Mountain and flew to the light column in and out of the Tianmai Secret Realm in the distance.
While most other people were heading towards the top of Tongtian Mountain, Duan Qing directly passed through the light column and teleported out of the Tianmai Secret Realm.
At the same time, Wang Zilai on the top of the mountain seemed to have noticed something and looked sideways at the direction of the light column at the bottom of the mountain.
Has anyone discovered it!
However, is it too late to discover it at this time!
...
Unknowingly, half an hour passed.
The top of the mountain where the ruins of the main vein of the Earth Sect at the other end of the Tianding Secret Realm are located.
A faint light suddenly flashed in a patch of weeds as tall as a person, and then a figure appeared in the grass.
Duan Qing casually put away a piece of metal plate hidden in the grass, and pushed the grass aside, his face looked a little pale.
Using the small teleportation array many times in a short period of time is too much of a burden on the body!
When he rushed from the main vein of the Earth Sect to the main vein of the Heaven Sect, he laid many teleportation marks along the way in order to find an opportunity to come back and open the secret world of the Earth Vein.
Without caring about anything else, Duan Qing flew directly into the air and leaned over to look at the situation below.
Seeing the large stone exposed in the weeds below, Duan Qing's heart suddenly twitched.
Sure enough!
This secret world of the Earth Vein has been opened by someone!
He came here once a few days ago. At that time, the weeds were overgrown, and there was no sign that the secret world of the Earth Vein had been opened.
And now, the weeds around the stone have disappeared, indicating that the teleportation light column has appeared. This is an indisputable and unconcealable fact.
This is exactly why he didn't dare to open the secret world of the Earth Vein at that time.
It seems that Wang Zilai's intention is indeed not just as simple as opening the Yuan Ding of the secret world of the Heaven Vein.
In fact, ever since entering the Tianding Secret Realm, Duan Qing has always felt that something is very strange.
The Tianding Secret Realm belongs to the Tianding Sect. Even if it is in a semi-abandoned state, what reason is there to open it to other forces?
If it is only open to individual forces, it can be explained by the exchange of interests, but it is not necessary for the Tianding Sect to open it to so many forces at once.
This question was not figured out until he listened to his master Zuo Yuanji's explanation of the past secrets of the Tianding Sect not long ago.
There is obviously only one answer!
Fishing!
This fish is not that fish. This fish refers to the people of the Di Sect.
In the past, the Tian Sect and the Di Sect of the Tianding Sect were in opposition and a war broke out, so that the Di Sect's Taoist lineage was destroyed and only a few people survived.
What grudges did the two sects of the Tianding Sect have that had to go to that point? It is an indisputable fact that this incident caused the Tianding Sect to lose control of the Yuan Ding in the Dimai Secret Realm, making it impossible to completely restart the Yuan Ding.
Such a result is obviously unacceptable to both the Tian Sect and the Di Sect.
It is conceivable that the Tianding Sect will definitely try every means to find a way to control another Yuan Ding in the Dimai Secret Realm from the remnants of the Dima Sect who survived.
And for the remnants of the Dima Sect, they certainly don't want to give up the Yuan Ding that belongs to the Dima Sect.
Obviously, for the Tianding Sect, this is undoubtedly a good way to control the remnants of the Dima Sect.
It must be based on this purpose that the Tianding Sect will open the Tianding Secret Realm to the public, in order to lure the remnants of the Dima Sect into the trap.
As for whether the remnants of the Dima Sect have been fooled, and whether the Tianding Sect has achieved its goal over the years, it is unknown.
But judging from the current situation, Duan Qing boldly speculates that the Tianding Sect's goal has not been achieved. Perhaps during this period, the remnants of the Dima Sect were fooled and entered the Tianding Secret Realm and were captured, but the Tianding Sect has always wanted to master the method of the Dimai Yuan Ding, but did not succeed.
Otherwise, the Tianding Sect will never open the Tianding Secret Realm to the public again.
So, in this case, why did Wang Zilai take the risk of restarting the Yuan Ding?
Is Wang Zilai sure that he can find the method to control the Earth Vein Yuan Ding during the opening of the Tian Ding Secret Realm, or is he able to improve the number of Yuan Crystals provided by the Yuan Ding by restarting only one Yuan Ding?
Obviously, the possibility of the former is undoubtedly much higher.
In other words, Wang Zilai may find the method to control the Earth Vein Yuan Ding during the opening of the Tian Ding Secret Realm.
Duan Qing didn't know why Wang Zilai was so confident, but what Duan Qing knew was that in addition to opening the Yuan Ding of the Tianmai Secret Realm, Wang Zilai would definitely open the Yuan Ding of the Dimai Secret Realm.
This means that there are more than one living sacrifices needed to restart the Yuan Ding, but at least two.
If Wu Ji is one of the sacrifices, where will Wang Zilai use it?
With Shen Ge always eyeing him, Wang Zilai himself is undoubtedly the biggest target. Using Wu Ji on the Yuan Ding of the Tianmai Secret Realm is too risky, and Shen Ge may find out and mess up at any time!
So... using Wu Ji on the Dimai Yuan Ding and becoming a living sacrifice to restart the Dimai Yuan Ding is undoubtedly much more reasonable.
This also explains why Wang Zilai wants to lead people to the Tianmai Secret Realm.
He deliberately spread the news that he was going to open the two secret realms of heaven and earth through the Tianding Sect members, and on the surface did not clearly point out the target to be opened first.
But in fact, it is easy to lead everyone to the Tianmai Secret Realm by arranging the Tianding Sect members of each branch secret realm in advance and controlling the time of leaking the news.
Just like him, after knowing the news, he first went to the main vein of the Earth Sect, which was close to him, and then hurried to the Heaven Vein Secret Realm after finding nothing.
There are not a few people who have the same experience as him.
Among them, the appearance of Yu Bai can ensure that everyone will not leave like they did at the main vein site of the Earth Sect after rushing to the ruins of the Heaven Sect Main Vein.
This series of events seems to be a coincidence, but in fact, it is probably all arranged by Wang Zilai.
The most brilliant part of the whole thing is that Wang Zilai did not directly let people leak that he would open the Heaven Vein Secret Realm, but said that he would open the Heaven and Earth Veins.
If everyone heard the news that Wang Zilai would open the Heaven Vein Secret Realm, I am afraid that many people would be suspicious of it, and then suspect others, and even go to the Earth Vein Secret Realm to explore the truth.
Duan Qing is not sure about other people, but he is sure that he will do so.
Unfortunately, the fact is that Wang Zilai deliberately confused the audience and let some people who are close to the Earth Vein Secret Realm go to explore it in advance, which not only dispelled everyone's doubts and made everyone subconsciously ignore the Earth Vein Secret Realm, but also achieved the purpose of gathering people to the Heaven Vein Secret Realm.
Such a method can be said to be very clever.
