After hearing Feimeng's words, Zhao Chen immediately thought of Lu Linqi's sister, the little girl he called "Baoguan".
After learning from Gao Xing, the owner of the Houtu Banner, that the Ming Cult worshiped the "Three-Legged Golden Crow" and that all previous leaders were the other party's "human body", Zhao Chen suspected that the little girl might be related to the "Yunxiao Golden Crow". "Crown" has a certain correlation.
After all, the fact that she could contact "Dairi Xingcha" and initiate a transaction speaks volumes.
That's why Zhao Chen gave her the nickname "Baoguan" in an attempt to test her reaction... Unfortunately, he couldn't get any feedback at the time.
Now it seems that this is probably because her memory was erased every time she was used.
While his thoughts were swirling, Zhao Chen briefly told Qi Feimeng about the "Crown".
Hearing this, Fei Meng's expression immediately became serious, and she frowned and said: "There have been three leaders of the Ming Cult since its establishment...
"If our previous speculation is correct, there are at least three 'Dongxuan' real people in this cave who have escaped the fog of history in this way... No wonder this world has declined to the point where even the fifth-grade urn position can only be maintained. In such a situation, it seems that its origin has been robbed more than once!"
"In other words, there is more than one imitation of the 'Yunxiao Golden Crow Crown'?" After Zhao Chen murmured something, he suddenly thought of something and guessed uncertainly, "Maybe the founder of the Yunying Sect is that one The first real person to escape from the cave more than a hundred years ago.
"That's why he left the 'Cloud Crown' after his death.
"And Ma Guangliang may be another 'Dongxuan' who came out later... Unfortunately, the time flow rate in Dongtian should have no reference significance compared to Xuantian. Otherwise, it can be judged from the time when the Mingjiao lost its leader.
"In addition, I have studied the resume of the founder of Yunying Sect before. He is indeed amazing and talented, and his life is quite legendary, but his personality is consistent before and after, and it does not look like he has been taken away or replaced... so the 'hole' There is a high probability that Xuan' was directly reincarnated into him.
"The evidence is that the founder of Yunying Sect died in one life and there is no record of reincarnation."
Qi Feimeng also nodded at this time and said: "I understand, the way to leave the 'Dongxuan' trapped here is that only the 'real body' has one chance of 'reincarnation'.
"The biggest role of the 'Yunxiao Golden Crow Crown' imitation is to break through the obstacles of the fog of history and allow them to reincarnate into Daxia."
The two of them spoke to each other and slowly outlined the outline of the matter. Although these were all based on speculation and assumptions, the inferences they obtained could just answer their previous doubts.
Finally, Zhao Chen and Qi Feimeng looked at each other and asked the question they were most concerned about at the moment: "Is there any remnant of the 'Dongxuan' real person in the cave?"
After all, this is the huge variable that may affect their mission.
"As far as I know, the last time the leader of the Ming Cult died was a century ago... If there were still any remaining 'Dongxuan' masters, I'm afraid it would have happened again.
"Of course, if the method of getting out really requires 'reincarnation' as a premise, then the 'Dong Xuan' first level 'Faxiang' real person, and the 'True Body' real person who has been reincarnated may also be forced to stay... It's just that He retreated into the darkness and stopped caring about worldly affairs.
"Otherwise, the Mingjiao should have been wiped out long ago after it lost its use value." Zhao Chen said after considering it.
After Qi Feimeng pondered for a moment, he proposed another possibility: "I think that even if there are still real people left in the cave, they are probably just lingering and using special methods to survive, and they can't take action easily.
“Otherwise, with your high profile before, they would have come looking for you.
"After all, if the people in the cave of the Five Immortals Zhenqi don't recognize it, how could the Demon Sect Dongxuan not recognize it?
"Moreover, this is in line with the difficulty of the task..."
Zhao Chen thought about it and felt that Feimeng's words made sense, but still reminded him: "Maybe they can't take action easily, but they may not be able to plan...
"For example, this martial arts conference hosted by the royal family is very weird... Do you know the inside story?"
After chatting for half the night, the two finally got down to "business."
"What can I, a puppet empress, know?" Qi Feimeng spread his hands, "At first, I thought this martial arts conference might be needed for the 'ritual' to get the fifth-grade position... But now I hear what you say, Instead, I'm not sure anymore.
"Furthermore, Li Feiyu's death is also full of doubts and may be very problematic."
"That's it..." Zhao Chen nodded thoughtfully, then said, "By the way, the mission requires me to be at least among the top three... What about you?"
"My first phase of the mission is to help you enter the top three." Qi Feimeng paused here and then smiled, "It seems that this mission will not reveal too many secrets...
"After all, after getting the ranking, we will most likely return immediately. Whatever conspiracy behind the scenes will have to wait until the next time we come in."
…
In Wuyou Mountain, in the Li family's imperial mausoleum, a woman sat in front of a dressing table with a silver mirror.
She wears more ornate palace clothes, bright colors, giving people a bright look, which is in sharp contrast to her own lifelessness.
This woman is none other than the Empress Dowager of Great Liang and the only "grandmaster" of the royal family, Jiang Yan.
She looked at the red figure in the silver mirror and sneered: "The dignified Blood Demon Sect master was actually injured by the sword energy of a junior aphrodisiac, and even almost wiped out his origin... Qin Ya, you Are you ashamed or not?"
"Jiang Yan, don't say sarcastic words. That is the 'Five Immortals' True Qi' that has gained the true meaning of 'Taichu'. Don't talk about me, a female ghost who has given up most of her power and can only exist in the form of an evil spirit. Even if you were hit head-on, you would lose at least half your life." The woman named Qin Ya choked immediately.
If Zhao Chen were here, he would definitely recognize it as the "blood-clothed female ghost" summoned by Lin Feihong, the "red fairy" of the Du Ling sect.
"Chu Yue should still be able to take action. Why did she let that kid come to Kyoto?" Empress Dowager Jiang Yan asked again.
"You don't know that Chu Yue has made a painting of herself so that she can retain her sanity? Unless Zhao Chen enters the Holy Spirit Sect, there is nothing she can do...
"It's not like you. She still has another chance to be reincarnated... It's a pity that you used it too early, otherwise you would be like Old Ghost Yun and Old Ghost Zheng fighting for a chance to gain a chance.
"And I think she has long lost the will to live again." Qin Ya sighed and then asked, "The fact that people from outside the cave came in means that there may be a loophole in the 'mist of history'... How long have you been preparing?" Do you want to continue the plan?"
"Of course... After all, being able to come in doesn't mean you can go out... I'd better plan my own way first. If it doesn't work, then I'll find a solution from that kid.
"He has become my 'granddaughter''s guest and cannot escape."
