Chapter 1828 See it for yourself
The paranoid idiot really can't stand being looked down upon like this. The Nascent Soul cannot search the soul to build the foundation... We can't treat people like this!
However, Yi He said calmly, "I also have karma... I didn't return to the immortal world in time, that's the karma of leaving the body!"
He was reluctant to emphasize this matter before, but everyone knows that it is indeed the truth.
If there hadn't been a great being who had left his body and told him to continue to hold on and guard the formation, why wouldn't he be able to return to the world of immortal cultivation?
Unlike Jiao Daoren and Wu Xuan Dazun, who did not return to the world of immortal cultivation mainly due to their own reasons, he was purely implicated.
But there is no way around it. As a casual cultivator, how dare he question the arrangements of the powerful?
It is impossible for Yi He to complain about the powerful being who has left his body - not only is it useless, he will also be prone to the backlash of cause and effect from the powerful being.
But when he searches the soul at this moment, even if there are obstacles, the powerful one will have to bear part of the consequences.
Things like cause and effect may sound mysterious, but it is undeniable that they do exist.
The paranoid man moved his mouth twice, but finally kept silent - luck was just his wishful thinking, and the cause and effect of power objectively existed!
Yi He took action and soon obtained more information.
The Xiong family was sent to the small world because something went wrong on their own and they should have been exterminated.
It was just because of some human relationships, and someone in the immortal world exiled them here.
That’s right, it was exile. Not only the Xiong family, but also the more than 3,000 people who first descended into the small world had their own problems.
The Xiong family’s mission is to guard this world. When the deadline is up, the cause and effect will be settled.
This is somewhat similar to the "atonement" behavior that the Empire takes towards the Awakened.
——You made the mistake first, and if you don’t want to atone for your sin, then go die. Otherwise, just atone for your sin and that’s it.
It’s just that the cultivator who carried out the execution did not set a deadline for atonement - or maybe there was, but it was lost.
In short, the Xiong family believed that thousands of years had passed and they should have been abandoned.
The powerful generally do not break a contract, but compared with the two, the Xiong family is too weak, and it is normal to be ignored and treated like an ant.
The Xiong family had no relevant complaints - the key was that they didn't dare to, but they had to save themselves.
Among the redeemers, the Xiong family has a very deep foundation, so they stood out in the early stages of development.
But even they themselves did not expect that when their company grew so big that outsiders could not afford to offend them, internal problems arose.
When Qu Jianlei heard this, he couldn't help but sigh, "If there is no law at home and no rules for the people, and if there are no enemies outside and foreign enemies, the country will always perish..."
A powerful empire can only defeat itself. The ancients were right!
So much so that even now, although the Xiong family still has the ambition to explore the outside world, they... really can't do it!
As long as they dare to show the slightest similar thoughts, or make any suspicious actions, they will face the attack of all seven towns.
If they just live a life of idleness and wait for death, the other seven towns can turn a blind eye.
After all, there are many descendants of the Xiong family in those seven towns.
The younger generations may not necessarily be loyal to their own branch. Some of them really want to destroy their own branch.
But as long as they don't show up and don't do anything stupid, you can ignore their existence.
This feels a bit like the Zhou Dynasty in China, or the late Eastern Zhou Dynasty. They were no longer even the common ruler of the world, but no one went out of their way to destroy them.
After all, many overlords were originally from the Ji clan, and they were one family hundreds of years ago.
However, the Xiong family also keeps some secrets, such as... the secret of the uninterrupted foundation building!
The secret lies in the ancestral temple!
The Xiong family’s ancestral hall is no secret in the small world and is currently located in the "Hedong Town" area.
Hedong Town is one of the three strongest towns among the seven towns, and the one in charge of the affairs of Hedong Town is actually a branch of the Xiong family.
However, the branch is stronger than the main branch, and the main branch is being suppressed.
Even for the annual ancestor worship activities, the main branch still has to apply to the branch to achieve its goal.
It is precisely because of this that the main branch of the Xiong family also built an ancestral temple, but it was not that old.
Others did not take it seriously and thought that the main branch was just trying to save face and did not want to have to please others every year.
Except for the ancestor of the main branch of the Xiong family, no one knows that there is a mystery in this ancestral temple.
The founder of this ancestral temple was “Xiong Chumo”, who was at the peak of foundation building in his forties, but was unable to break through and finally died with hatred in his heart.
Xiong Chumo is a genuine genius, and he has also tried to break through the small world to look for opportunities.
It’s a pity that he went out at the age of fifty and came back at the age of eighty, which means that if he can’t advance to the Golden Elixir stage, he won’t be able to break through the barriers!
But the upper limit of this small world... is the peak of foundation building. Countless brilliant and talented predecessors have proved this.
So in the days that followed, Xiong Chumo was busy integrating various opportunities.
He did not force himself to unify the small world, because... with his strength, he really couldn't do it.
But those years were also a rare time for the main branch of the Xiong family to be able to hold their heads high.
Even if all seven towns came together, Xiong Chumo could still handle it. He could fight against five foundation-building masters alone without being at a disadvantage.
However, he also had to emphasize that the Xiong family had no ambition to unify the world, they just wanted to live a good life.
He suddenly passed away when he was 150 years old.
Some say he consumed too much energy exploring the outside world, others say he overdrew from the war.
All in all, this man died far before his life span, and the seven major towns were happy about this for a long time.
After Xiong Chumo's death, no one was willing to accept the Xiong family's dominance anymore, and order returned to its original state.
But this person is indeed extraordinary. Those branches that have separated from the Xiong family also recognize him as a rare and powerful leader of the Xiong family.
He was the one who chose the site for the new ancestral temple, and other forces tacitly accepted him as the ancestor.
It seems that there are too many nonsense words, but the key point is that the Xiong family’s foundation-building has been uninterrupted, starting with Xiong Chumo.
Only the ancestor of the Xiong family knew that when the foundation-building person in his family was about to die of old age, he must bring the most promising newcomer to worship the ancestor.
The person being worshipped is none other than Xiong Chumo. No one else can do any good.
Then the ancestor will appear and choose one among several younger generations to build the foundation in a short period of time.
This may sound a bit too fantastical, but it is true.
When the Xiong family had three people who had established their foundation, it was of no use no matter how much they knelt down and worshipped the ancestor.
However, there were two times in the Xiong family when an ancestor who had established his foundation died unexpectedly, and the only surviving ancestor had not yet reached the end of his life span, so going to worship him was very effective.
To put it simply, when the Xiong family has more than one foundation-building cultivator, whether the family members can build the foundation depends entirely on their own qualifications and opportunities.
However, when there is only one foundation-building cultivator left, or when another foundation-building cultivator is on the verge of death, going to worship is particularly effective.
Xiong Shimao also didn’t know what kind of mechanism this was.
He built his foundation entirely on his own qualifications, but this did not hinder his respect for Xiong Chumo.
Because he couldn't reach Xiong Chumo's level, and in terms of protecting future generations... he was even further behind!
However, after Qu Jianlei and his team finished searching the soul, they intuitively determined that "this ancestral temple... has a problem!"
In fact, the problem is obvious. The question is... do you want to find out?
To be honest, Xiong Chumo is only at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage. There is no need to be so wary of him. There are so many Golden Cores in the team.
But then again, this person is at the peak of the foundation building stage because the upper limit of this world is the foundation building stage!
It's like a test paper with a score of 150, and two people got the same score of 150.
On one of them he got all the answers right by luck, but on the other one... the test paper only had 150 points.
If this person were placed in the empire, there would be at least a 99% chance that he would advance to the highest level, and above the highest level... it might not be impossible.
The most important thing is that, although he passed away, his legacy... can ensure that the foundation building of future generations will continue.
This is definitely not the work of a foundation-building cultivator; even a golden elixir cultivator cannot do this.
If it's for two or three generations, it's easy, just leave more resources. But if it's for more than ten generations - isn't that a joke?
Considering the critical moment, it can ensure the emergence of the foundation - I'm afraid it will be difficult for the Nascent Soul to emerge, right?
Qu Jianlei believed that it was very easy for him to do all these when he was alive, and he could even produce foundation-building equipment in batches.
But he felt that it was really incompetent of him to be able to have such a great influence thousands of years after his death.
Therefore, this secret... probably only someone who has reached the state of out-of-body experience is qualified to investigate, and even a Nascent Soul may not be able to bear the consequences.
But everyone also understands that this is probably the biggest secret of this small world.
The "moderate disaster" shown in the hexagram is most likely referring to this place.
Qu Jianlei hesitated for a moment and said, "How about this...you guys exit the small world first, and I'll go give it a try."
"It's not your turn!" Taoist Jiao said straightforwardly, "I want to see which great master did this!"
As an elder of the Beast Taming Sect, he knew very well that since he had entered the small world, he had already taken on the relevant cause and effect.
Even if I were to withdraw now, it would only be a matter of cause and effect. It would be impossible to completely distance myself from it.
If that's the case, then maybe we might as well take a gamble.
If he bets wrong, everything is over. If he bets right... at least he can compete with others for resources.
He finally understood that although the boss had the final say in this team, he would be absolutely fair to those who were willing to make sacrifices.
If by chance you could get a chance to go to the world of immortal cultivation, wouldn’t that be a huge win?
Anyway, he is already like this now, how much worse can it be?
However, there were many people who had figured it out like him. Yi He also expressed, "Great power? Haha... I really want to see it!"
"Let's give it a try," Lian Jing Yuexin said, "Although I still have a few hundred years to live, I want to see the scenery from a higher place!"
"You don't have to!" Qu Jianlei refused decisively, "We are enough."
"It's necessary," Jing Yuexin said straightforwardly, "If something happens to you, the remaining hundreds of years... will be meaningless to me!"
"Tsk," Qu Jianlei smacked his lips, then quietly reached out and held her little hand.
The little hands were cold, with a hint of cold sweat on the palms, but the spokesperson's face was flushed.
"Then let's go, together!" The paranoid man said straightforwardly, "You talk about powerful people every day, but I've never seen anyone like that!"
