Chapter 229: Deduction, Terrible Future Picture
Chapter 229 – Deduction, Terrifying Future Picture
Regarding Jiang Chengxuan’s outburst just now, although the four of them hadn’t witnessed it with their own eyes, that result, they were all obviously aware of it.
Including the retreat of the eight third-ranked demonic beasts like the Blade Black Eagle just now, it was also because of that wave of Jiang Chengxuan’s outburst just now.
To be honest, the four were still very surprised in their hearts at such an outcome.
Even Jiang Rendao, who was also a member of the Jiang Clan, did not expect at all that his own uncle’s strength was already this strong.
I’m afraid that even compared to those so-called False Pill cultivators, it should be no less than that, right?
Between the electric thoughts, all four of them could not help but voice out their admiration for Jiang Chengxuan’s performance just now.
Hearing this Jiang Chengxuan naturally denied it modestly.
Just like that, between the words of the group, they had already returned to the Ancient Yuan City.
In a few moments.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Jiang Rendao, Hua Mengyue, Li Fei, Bai Mingshan, Bai Yuanchen, and Bai Zixuan, the eight of them, once again gathered within the Ancient Yuan City’s Council Hall.
At this time, their expressions were all quite serious.
After experiencing what had just happened, they had already realized that for themselves and the others, wanting to use the same method of stalling for time as before, was obviously already somewhat unworkable.
Especially after that wave of Jiang Chengxuan’s outburst, the demonic beast side, would inevitably make a new assessment of their Gu Yuan City’s overall strength.
When the next attack came, its scale, I’m afraid, would far exceed their imagination.
Of course, this wasn’t to say that Jiang Chengxuan’s outburst was bad.
In fact.
In that situation before, if Jiang Chengxuan didn’t expose a portion of his strength, whether it was Hua Mengyue or Jiang Rendao and the others, there was a considerable degree of danger.
Especially Hua Mengyue, if she didn’t get it right, she might fall as a result.
And that, was the most fatal thing.
It was also the thing that everyone was unwilling to see and accept.
At this moment, he heard Hua Mengyue speak:
“I think everyone should already know about the situation just now.
The reason why that situation occurred at that time, as far as I can guess, it should be that they, on the side of the demonic beasts, should have sensed something.
Or rather, they no longer have that patience to spend any more time with us.
That is why they wanted to get rid of us quickly.
Perhaps the only thing they didn’t anticipate was the strength of Jiang Daoyou.
Now, the bottom line in our Ancient Yuan City has been pretty much exposed.
Even if there’s still Daoist Friend Ruyan and Elder Bai who haven’t been exposed.
But I believe that when the next wave of beast tide comes, it is likely that our side of Ancient Yuan City will need to go all out.”
With these words, Hua Mengyue’s analysis could be considered reasonable.
However, because of this, it caused the expressions of the people present to become quite grave.
It could be imagined that by that time, it would definitely be a very difficult and bitter battle.
“On our side, have we specifically probed into the details of their demonic beast side?”
At that moment, he heard Bai Mingshan speak:
“For example, the specific number, level, and treasures of the third stage demonic beasts.”
At that moment, all the people present couldn’t help but all turn their gazes, towards Hua Mengyue.
Hua Mengyue shook her head.
“Not for now.”
After a pause, Hua Mengyue continued:
“With the current situation, it’s almost unlikely that one would want to poke around for specific information on the demonic beast side.
The most you and I can do is a rough speculation, and it may not be accurate.”
“What about reinforcements?
Given the importance of our Ancient Yuan City, your sect, as well as the Tian Yue Sect, shouldn’t have no other back-ups, right?”
Jiang Rendao spoke at the right time.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, as well as the three members of the Bai Clan, their hearts were also slightly moved.
Indeed.
According to the importance of the Ancient Yuan City, if it was said that the Aqua Sword Pavilion and the Tian Yue Sect did not have a little backhanded words, it seemed to be somewhat unreasonable.
It was impossible to really place all of their hopes on them, right?
In response, Hua Mengyue hesitated slightly, but eventually nodded her head and said:
“Not bad, before we came here, Senior Brother Li Fei and I did have the cards given by the sect in our hands.
But that thing, if it really wasn’t a last resort, we didn’t want to use it.
Because once we use it, the entire Ancient Yuan City, including that spirit vein deep within its ground, will be instantly destroyed.
What exactly this situation implies, I think that even if I don’t say it, all of you should be aware of it.”
These words immediately caused the faces of everyone, including Jiang Chengxuan, to change violently.
They hadn’t really thought that the Aqua Sword Pavilion and the Heavenly Yue Sect had actually arranged a backhand like that.
If Ancient Yuan City really couldn’t hold on at that time, then even if they had to destroy an entire fourth-order spirit vein, they would never let your demonic beast side get their hands on it.
However, this kind of thing, Jiang Chengxuan, who was a Purple Mansion Upper, they all knew very well.
If Hua Mengyue and Li Fei really did that.
Not to mention how much karma the two of them would have to bear afterward, I’m afraid that even the Bishui Sword Pavilion and the Tian Yue Sect behind them would inevitably have to suffer a certain degree of karmic repercussions.
Most importantly, at that time, whether or not this karma would be transferred partially onto their bodies, that was something that could not be said.
It was really a fourth-order spirit vein, and it was also a fourth-order top-ranked spirit vein, and the karmic consequences involved were just too great.
It was not even comparable to the third rank spirit vein that had been destroyed by the Guiyuan Sect that day.
Its cause and effect karma was definitely more than a hundred times that of the latter.
“As for the helping hand ……”
At this time, he heard Hua Mengyue continue, “In a short period of time, I’m afraid it will be very difficult to have one.
But if the situation is really very urgent, I will try my best to apply for it first. “
The implication was that the bottom card in her and Li Fei’s hands, unless it was really a last resort, otherwise, they would definitely not use it.
Nonetheless, the faces of the crowd at this time were still not very good.
When this meeting dispersed, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan returned to their cave residence in Ancient Yuan City.
Jiang Chengxuan immediately said to Shen Ruyan: ”Ruyan, I feel that this time, I’m afraid that it’s not too simple, and if it’s not done well, certain variables may occur.
During the stabilization period, I intend to conduct a closed-door deduction of the situation that will follow.
During this period, no matter who comes to find me, or if there is anything, you should not let anyone disturb me.”
Upon hearing these words from Jiang Chengxuan, a flash of concern appeared on Shen Ruyan’s face.
“Husband, will there be any danger in making deductions about such things?”
Jiang Chengxuan shook his head.
“If I were to use my past cultivation and my ability to deduce, there might actually be some risk.
But now, that risk shouldn’t be too great.
All in all, I will pay attention to this matter, you don’t need to worry too much for me.”
Seeing Jiang Chengxuan say this, Shen Ruyan then didn’t say much more and couldn’t help but nod at his words.
“Husband don’t worry, at that time, before you even leave the gate, no matter who or what, I won’t let them disturb you.”
“Well, then I’m counting on you, ma’am.”
Jiang Chengxuan nodded slightly.
Immediately, he didn’t waste any more time and soon walked into the middle of his own retreat cave.
As soon as he walked into the retreat cave, Jiang Chengxuan took out the deduction bead.
At this time, he didn’t have the slightest hesitation, and directly put this deduction bead on top of deducing the subsequent contents of the Heavenly Deduction Dao.
Soon after, a scene about the content of that Heavenly Hijacking Deduction Dao’s follow-up appeared in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind at a rapid pace.
It caused his comprehension of the Hijacking Heavenly Deduction Dao to continuously increase at a rapid pace.
About a day later.
Jiang Chengxuan’s closed eyes slowly opened.
At this moment, a picture appeared within his pupils.
It was precisely about what might happen after their Ancient Yuan City.
In these images.
He saw Jiang Rendao’s fall, Bai Mingshan’s tragic death, Li Fei and Bai Zixuan, transformed into a mist of blood, and Hua Mengyue and Bai Yuanchen, buried in the mouths of demonic beasts.
At the same time, he also saw him and Shen Ruyan, seriously injured, fleeing in fear.
As well as the entire Ancient Yuan City, was uprooted from the ground, countless cultivators, under the trampling of the demonic beasts, ashes flew to ashes.
Puh-
Suddenly, a mouthful of blood sprayed out of Jiang Chengxuan’s mouth.
His face instantly became incomparably pale.
There was a burst of tightness in his heart.
He had never expected, no matter what, that after utilizing the deduction bead to deduce the contents of the Heavenly Prediction Dao to the middle of the third layer, and using it to comprehend the essence of the second layer, the picture he saw in his final deduction would actually be that picture.
What in the world was going on here?
Why was the future he saw, a future like that?
Although the future he saw was only one of countless possibilities.
But since it was captured by himself right now, it meant that the future he saw was the one that was most likely to happen in the future.
What the hell was going on here?
Jiang Chengxuan asked himself once again in his heart.
According to their Gu Yuan City’s current strength, as well as the cards he held, even if a fourth-ranked demonic beast did come to attack, there was no way that a picture such as the one above would appear.
There must be something that he had overlooked.
Otherwise, the future would never be like that.
Suddenly, Jiang Chengxuan felt a wave of dizziness.
This was an aftereffect of overusing the algorithm.
It would leave his entire being in a state of relative weakness for a certain period of time.
At this time, he was afraid that his strength would be less than 20% of what it was when he was in full victory.
Taking out an elixir that nourished his soul and consuming it, Jiang Chengxuan reclosed, silently absorbing the medicinal power as he began to revisit the future images he had seen earlier.
Suddenly, he noticed.
In the future image, Jiang Rendao, Li Fei, and Bai Zixuan, their deaths seemed to have happened in an instant.
Even though he couldn’t see it truly enough, Jiang Chengxuan vaguely noticed that the death of the three of them didn’t seem to be outside the city.
In other words, there was a high possibility that their deaths were not at the hands of demonic beasts.
Could it be that this source came from within their Ancient Yuan City?
But apart from him and Shen Ruyan, in the future picture, all the other six Purple Mansion cultivators among them had all fallen.
In that case, it would be impossible for them to have any problems.
Then where exactly did the problem originate from?
Could it be that there was a problem with the people who came to their aid when they asked for help afterward?
But under the watchful eyes of their eight Violet Mansions, even if the person who came really had a problem, how could he possibly have that chance?
Unless the identity of the other party was not a Purple Mansion cultivator.
The moment he thought of this, Jiang Chengxuan’s heart was creeped out.
If there was really a problem with the Jindan within their human race, then the moment the other party descended, they would immediately turn on them, and there would indeed be a great possibility of achieving the kind of effect in the future picture.
If that were true ……
Jiang Chengxuan’s eyes shifted for a moment.
[Ding]
Offhandedly, it was also at this moment that the system’s prompt, suddenly was ringing in his mind.
[System mission issued, please complete the host’s guarding of Ancient Yuan City and ensure that all of your companions survive.]
[System mission, please complete the guarding of Gu Yuan City and ensure the survival of all your companions]. This system mission?
Jiang Chengxuan’s pupils suddenly contracted.
He hadn’t thought at all that the system would release such a task for him.
Wasn’t this a disguised proof that what he had seen in his previous deduction was most likely true?
It would really and truly happen in the future?
If that was the case ……
Jiang Chengxuan tried his best to calm himself down.
At this time, the first thing he needed to do was to let his own state recover as quickly as possible.
And it had to be before the next wave of demonic beasts attacked.
Only then would he have enough ability to deal with whatever might happen next.
At that moment, Jiang Chengxuan once again took out pills from his body and took them, beginning to adjust and restore his own state.
Two months later.
Jiang Chengxuan’s state was already completely restored.
At this time, he was hitting the bottleneck of a third-rank upper grade alchemist.
He didn’t know if it was the result of being stimulated by the previous future image.
At this moment, he suddenly felt inspiration erupt like a tidal wave.
His grasp of the changes in the medicinal materials within the dan furnace, as well as the level of fire, was actually clearer than ever before.
In this state, Jiang Chengxuan’s alchemy was unexpectedly smooth.
In just under a month’s time, he had purified the herbs, separated them, and subsequently fused them all in one go.
Right now, it had already reached the most crucial stage of condensation.
As long as this step was successfully completed, then his alchemy this time would be declared a complete success.
And he, too, would truly step into the ranks of a Third Order Upper Grade Alchemist.
Buzzing!
As Jiang Chengxuan’s technique continued to change.
The temperature in the Dan furnace in front of him kept pulling up.
It could be clearly seen that within that Dan furnace, three pills that took on an emerald green luster gradually began to take shape.
About several more days later.
With Jiang Chengxuan’s last Dan Condensation Technique, the three pills within the furnace that emitted an emerald green luster were finally completely formed.
It was full and round.
It was flawless.
At the very same time, an extremely rich fragrance of the dan was clearly wafting out from within his dan furnace.
Smelling this Dan fragrance, on Jiang Chengxuan’s face, a smile finally surfaced.
Then he saw him reach out and clap his hands.
There was a clang.
The lid of the furnace opened in response.
Immediately afterward, three emerald green, emitting rich vitality, with a grade reaching the top grade of the third order of the healing elixir, flew out from the furnace, and were collected by Jiang Chengxuan in one go with a jade bottle that had already been prepared beforehand.
It’s finally done!
This thought flashed through his mind, and at the same time, a familiar electronic synthesized tone suddenly sounded in Jiang Chengxuan’s mind.
