Chapter 6975 Illusion
From the moment Zhao Ying threw out the fist-sized ball, to the time this thing multiplied into Jiang Guang, who was almost two meters tall, with a muscular body and a fierce aura, Qiu Linnian felt that something was very wrong. Was this an illusion soldier?
No, this can be considered a Phantom Warrior coating? Who are you insulting!
"Jiang Guangshou, use the Sky Demon Disintegration!" Zhao Ying gave the order to Jiang Guangshou, who had revealed his true form, with a body of marble tendons and an aggressive aura. Then Jiang Guangshou directly activated the Sky Demon Disintegration in front of Qiu Linnian. At this moment, Zhao Ying was not at all crazy, but only excited about having fulfilled his dream!
On the other hand, Qiu Linnian was stunned at this moment. He felt that it was outrageous enough that he absorbed his comrade's self before death as an additive to his illusion and showed an alternative talent. It was really too much that Zhao Ying could directly use such an elite talent as Demon Disintegration.
The phantom warrior who absorbed Huyange's residual thoughts picked up his black long spear and rushed towards Jiang Guangshou the moment Jiang Guangshou burst out with wild momentum.
However, facing such an attack, Jiang Guangshou did not dodge at all, but just bloomed the Heavenly Demon Disintegration according to Zhao Ying's command. Wild power was released from his body, and a giant sword proliferated madly in his right hand. Bones also protruded from his body, forming a thick layer of bone armor on the outside.
As a flash of blood shone from his eyes, Jiang Guangshou was fully activated. He picked up the broad bone knife that was almost two meters long, and slashed towards Huyange with the power of the disintegration of the demon.
It may be a question whether a demon without armor or weapons can burst out with the seventh-level combat power, but the Jiang Guang Beast, which was completely refined by Zhao Ying into Jiang Guang Beast, uses proliferated bones for protection, holds a super-large bone blade, and uses the Heavenly Demon Disintegration, definitely has the seventh-level combat power.
As for why the Demon God could use the Heavenly Demon Disintegration, it could only be because Zhao Ying lived in the street office managed by Jiang Guang. Not to mention that Zhao Ying himself was a top elite. Even if Zhao Ying was an ordinary person, after seeing someone use the Heavenly Demon Disintegration thousands of times, there would be no problem in activating it manually!
What's more, the demon god itself has this characteristic. Even if the thing that conforms to the demon god's original attributes is actually the twenty-four bodies of the god, it is not difficult for Zhao Ying to optimize this thing and make it closer to the disintegration of the demon god.
After all, Zhao Ying, who has been fighting with Jiang Guang for almost ten years, understands best how to perfectly solve the Disintegration of the Heavenly Demon. Zhao Ying even knows how to restrain the power of the Disintegration of the Heavenly Demon. As for why the Demon God was shaped into the image of Jiang Guang, that is even simpler. If there is a template in this world that is born for the Disintegration of the Heavenly Demon, even if Jiang Guang is not the best choice, he is probably one of them.
So Zhao Ying spent a lot of effort to replicate what he had learned on the Demon God. After all, he had been against Jiang Guang for so many years, and it was true that he could not beat Jiang Guang, but Zhao Ying was definitely more familiar with Jiang Guang's physical data than the doctor who performed the physical examination.
This is also the reason why the final thing is very similar to Jiang Guang, because Zhao Ying even imitated Jiang Guang's muscle fibers. However, even though Zhao Ying tried his best to reproduce everything he knew on the body of the Demon God Jiang Guang Beast, and he did break through the combat power of the original Demon God, the loss of the Heavenly Demon still could not be offset in the body of the Demon God Jiang Guang Beast.
However, the Demon God has super-fast regeneration ability. After simulating the high-level carrier Jiang Guang to strengthen his strength a little, the Demon God Jiang Guang Beast was not unscathed, but at least the loss was less. In response to this, Zhao Ying expressed his feeling that Jiang Guang was indeed a monster, and then quickly put Jiang Guang Beast away. This was his important trump card against Jiang Guang.
The charging demon Jiang Guangshou had no roar nor any killing intent, but only the pure power after the Heavenly Demon was activated. Under the tremendous force of the Heavenly Demon's disintegration, the bone sword erupted with such terrifying power that ordinary people could see the several-meter-long air blade extending from the tip of the sword.
The terrifying power, coupled with the fact that the Demon God Jiang Guangshou completely ignored the opponent's attacks, directly blew up the phantom warriors created by Qiu Linnian with just one sword. The almost instinctive Sky Crane Cloak inherited from Huyange and the terrifying defense after coating were all meaningless in the face of the Demon God Jiang Guangshou's basic qualities of seven-fold smelting and the terrifying power after the disintegration of the Heavenly Demon.
Not to mention the bone blade itself, just the impact of the air blade that extended out after it chopped up Qiu Linnian's phantom warrior and caused the air to explode almost blew Qiu Linnian away.
"Sure enough, the coating still depends on me!" Zhao Ying couldn't help but laugh wildly when he saw the opponent being killed in one move and the wind from the sword almost blowing Qiu Linnian away.
"Go, Jiang Guangshou, kill that guy for me!" After laughing wildly for a few times, Zhao Ying pointed at Qiu Linnian and gave Jiang Guangshou a new order.
At the same time, Qiu Linnian also realized that he had met a tough opponent. Putting aside Zhao Ying’s own strength, there was no need to discuss whether this strange coating was a coating or not. It was so powerful and so wild, so it must be a real coating.
However, for Qiu Linnian, now is not the time to think about these things. He must get rid of this Jiang Guang beast now, otherwise, this thing may really kill Qiu Linnian directly.
"Come out, my warriors!" Seeing Jiang Guangshou rushing towards him like the wind, Qiu Linnian did not dare to hesitate and directly released the personality and self sealed in his illusion.
This was a method left behind by the previous Chanyu, Huyan Chu, or more directly, it was a method improved by the previous Chanyu Huyan Chu based on the operation of his father Qiulinbei.
These things, such as regrets, personality, and self, were all sealed up by Hu Yanchu using the Qiulin Stele. They were all left behind by the elite Xiongnu before their death. By sealing them in illusions and supporting them with special techniques, they could be reappeared in a short time.
This is also the reason why the mere 3,000 Xiongnu remnants were able to retain a large number of skills and talents, because Huyan Chu had already arranged everything after his death in battle. Only with this kind of spiritual talent that can observe the future to a certain extent can such means be used to arrange backup plans early.
Of course, relatively speaking, considering the overall situation of the Northern Xiongnu at that time, this was the limit of what Huyanchu could do. If someone among the Xiongnu could kill and absorb as much as Wogaru does now, then the heritage that Huyanchu could leave behind would be even greater.
Taking Huyange as an example, Qiu Linnian extracted the divine will of his dying comrade, and Wogaru completely absorbed the remaining energy and spirit of his comrade, and then the two relied on the illusion to merge them into one, and Huyange was basically resurrected briefly.
More importantly, such a Huyange can be sealed by Qiu Linnian and activated when necessary. At that time, whether it is to inherit talents and skills or to use them in combat, it will be a very good means. Unfortunately, at that time, none of the Huns reached Wogaru's level in the development of killing and absorption, so a lot of resources were wasted.
But even so, Qiu Linnian still has a lot of self and personality fragments stored here. Of course, the personality fragments left by the elite veterans who inherited more than 50 kinds of Huns' talent structures that Hu Yanchu carefully selected have been consumed over the years.
After all, whether it is to let other people learn and inherit these talents and skills, or because some invincible opponents appear and these people are needed to stand up and help cover the retreat, there will be consumption.
Most of the self and personality fragments sealed by Huyan Chu and Qiulinbei, even with the broken imperial will and the century-old military spirit of the Northern Huns' guards, and stored in Qiulinnian's fantasy based on special illusions, basically only had no obvious wear and tear when used for the first or second time.
This is actually because the military spirit of the Northern Huns' Royal Guards has a heritage effect, which can awaken past historical traces from the past. Otherwise, relying solely on special illusions will dissipate in a short time.
Qiu Linnian has spent twenty years in the inner world, including seven or eight years on the surface. More than twenty years have passed. The majority of personality fragments and self-scars Qiu Linnian has in his hands are basically those brothers who were about to be wiped out due to the overly cruel environment in the inner world during these twenty years.
When floating up before, Qiu Linnian released most of them, making them more like normal people and even able to exert their final strength. After all, dying at the hands of the Han Dynasty was better for the Huns than dying in the torture of the natural environment.
But, that was only the majority. He still had six personality fragments in his hand, three collected over the past twenty years, and three life-saving trump cards left by his father.
And now, facing the demon god Jiang Guangshou, it is obviously time to use it.
"Come out, Lannuo, Lin Ke, Chou Ming!" Qiu Linnian directly released the three people sealed in his consciousness. They were pure Huns like him, Wogaru and others. If they had not been eroded by the extreme environment on the other side of the world, they would at least be captains of a thousand cavalry. Their surnames were all Hun nobles. They were descendants of the Hun kings and were real elites.
However, even the real elites could not avoid being wiped out by the cruel environment of the inner world during the past thirty years. After all, if some people were asleep, there must be someone like Tian who was exposed to the environment of the inner world and guided the people to survive in the cruel environment.
These three Hun nobles gradually died out while leading their people to survive in a cruel environment. About twenty years after entering the inner world, they entered into a situation like the current Tian. They voluntarily let Qiu Linnian absorb the divine will and seal it in the illusion, waiting for the moment when the Huns would be redeemed, so that they could appear and take that last look.
"Dang!" Lan Nuo blocked the Demon God Jiang Guangshou for a moment, and then was chopped away by the bone blade. A crack appeared on the bone blade, but for such a heavy weapon, such a small crack was nothing at all. The Demon God Jiang Guangshou swung the bone knife and chopped again.
"Dang!" With a dull sound, the terrifying force even caused the mountains around Chou Ming to shatter directly, but no matter what, Chou Ming successfully blocked Jiang Guang's full-strength attack with just a scimitar.
"Where have you been doing this? How come you're here in the blink of an eye?" Lin Ke looked at Qiu Linnian and asked in surprise, then turned to look at the opposite side, "Hey, Han Jun, not bad, Qiu Linnian, you actually know what my last thought was."
"Stop talking nonsense, I can't stand this thing!" Chou Ming shouted when he heard Lin Ke's answer. Although he just raised his hand and blocked Jiang Guangshou's attack with his scimitar, the power displayed by Jiang Guangshou when he pressed down made Chou Ming's scalp numb. He had devoured so many ferocious beasts in the world, and after more than 20 years of polishing, the strength he had trained was completely at a disadvantage!
"Kill his heart!" Lin Ke glanced at Chou Ming, drew the bowstring, and shot an arrow at Jiang Guangshou. However, there was clearly no arrow, but the bowstring vibrated and a hole the size of a five-zhu coin was directly torn open in Jiang Guangshou's chest, and blood spurted out. Chou Ming seized the opportunity and chopped back with all his might, pushing Jiang Guangshou away. Unexpectedly, Jiang Guangshou just took a step back, so he chopped down again.
"Damn, what kind of monster is this!" Chou Ming retreated to avoid the attack, and then he struck the air. The aftermath shattered the mountain path. The mountain path, which had already been broken by various impacts, collapsed directly, and the five people fell down along with the mountain path.
"Uh..." Lan Nuo, who pulled himself out of the pit, looked at the collapsed mountain road, sighed, and jumped down as well. They were all tough guys, and even if they were buried by the landslide, they would at most be in a state of embarrassment, but they would not die, not to mention that the three brothers were already dead.
"What was that just now?" Chen Xi turned his head to look at Huangfu Song and asked. His eyesight was not bad. The three phantom warriors created by Qiu Linnian were completely abnormal.
"The Huns are indeed a nation that developed fantasy warriors. Their breakthroughs in this area are truly shocking." Huangfu Song looked at the guys who fell off the cliff with a solemn expression.
"Ah, didn't we develop the Fantasy Warrior?" Chen Xi asked in confusion, "I remember they always said we developed it. How come it's now the Xiongnu's turn?"
"It was originally developed by the Huns, but now that the Huns are dead, it belongs to us." Zhu Jun stood aside and said in a matter-of-fact tone.
"Zichuan, you will understand if you think about the concept of fantasy soldiers." Liu Bei said speechlessly. He found that sometimes Chen Xi really didn't want to use his brain at all. He was simply lazy.
"Oh, that's right. The phantom soldiers were not developed to reduce troop losses, but for a larger force and deterrence." Chen Xi thought about it for a while and understood what the phantom soldiers were.
"The Han Dynasty actually doesn't need the talent of fantasy soldiers, but the Xiongnu does. At the peak of the Xiongnu's power, the Xiongnu's native population was only 1.5 million. If you include the vassal Hu people, there were only 7 million. This is why Laoshang Chanyu proposed the option of either Han or Hu." Huangfu Song explained to Chen Xi as he looked at the six people who were still fighting on the cliff.
"The Han Dynasty had a huge population and could fight to the death with the Huns, but the Huns could not. If the Huns fought this kind of war with the Han Dynasty, they would undoubtedly lose, especially after Emperor Xuan. The Huns' manpower was already seriously insufficient. In this situation, the Huns had to develop phantom soldiers." Huangfu Song went straight to the essence of the problem.
"Oh, I totally understand. In this case, it is understandable that the Huns put so much effort into developing their fantasy soldiers." Chen Xi nodded.
"Yes, it was actually the Huns who put a lot of effort into this road. We in the Han Dynasty mainly studied how to crack the phantom soldiers. Finally, with our efforts, the road of the phantom soldiers was blocked. I didn't expect the Huns to open up this road to this extent. From a certain perspective, it is already perfect." Huangfu Song looked at Lan Nuo who fell to the ground and attacked Jiang Guangshou directly. "The Huns are really geniuses in storing the self and personality of elite veterans before their death and using them when necessary!"
“The existence of the coating allows the veterans who are released in this way to possess strength close to their peak, because talent is essentially the collective will manifested in reality. After the veteran’s ego and personality are sealed, they are revealed through the illusion of the coating and are able to use their talents. Even if it’s just once, it’s a very terrifying improvement. This method will allow the Huns to accumulate a large number of disposable backbones.” Huangfu Song’s expression became extremely solemn. This method was no less than that of the former Northern Huns’ Royal Guard.
"The longer time goes by, the more cards the Xiongnu will accumulate." Chen Xi concluded succinctly, "Old soldiers of this level will be very troublesome even if they are just one-time, Lord Xuande."
"I'm notifying." Liu Bei has already sent a message to all the veterans near Qiu Linnian. He didn't mean any other thing. Although Huangfu Song had figured out the principle of coating after seeing the authentic product, he had never seen the other party use the illusion of sealing the self and personality. Now he has a direction, but it will take five or six years to figure it out on his own. In this case, it is better to send someone to capture Qiu Linnian.
"Okay, I've already notified them." Liu Bei nodded to Chen Xi, then turned to Zhao Yun and said, "Zilong, if anything unexpected happens later, remember to capture them. This talent is very important to us, even if it's just as our last living will."
"No problem, General." Zhao Yun stood up and glanced at Qiu Linnian, then almost endless internal energy poured into the small world, enveloping the entire small world.
"The Huns' development capabilities are really strong. They not only solved the problem of phantom warriors that we haven't solved for so many years, but also opened up new directions. It's really amazing." Chen Xi said in a teasing tone as he looked at Qiu Linnian, who was relying on three phantoms that seemed to have six layers of smelting to suppress the demon Jiang Guangshou.
"That's normal. The Fantasy Warrior is just a supplement to our combat power. It's hard to say what its position is among the Huns. Maybe it's a pillar talent?" Huangfu Song said calmly, not paying any attention to the sarcasm in Chen Xi's words.
"However, judging from the fact that the Huns have been developing fantasy warriors so vigorously, and it is very likely that they have developed such high-end uses in the past decade, the Huns' population may not be as large as we thought. I estimate that even inside the world, there will not be too many Huns." Jia Xu, who was pretending to be dead, spoke rarely, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he provided very crucial information.
"Huh?" Chen Xi raised his eyebrows when he heard that, but then nodded slowly.
"It is possible. After all, the reason for developing the fantasy soldiers is to alleviate the population shortage. If the Huns had developed such an application ten years ago, they would have definitely used it. Since they didn't use it, then it really didn't happen." Huangfu Song touched his beard and agreed with Jia Xu's judgment, because this estimate made a lot of sense.
"To be even more direct, this talent is most likely a talent that the Huns use to pass on their talents." Jia Xu said with some speculation, "Considering what you said before, and that it really didn't exist ten years ago, then this thing is very interesting. There are very few Huns, and the Huns are on the inside of the world. The Huns are still fighting with us, and they are fighting to the death!"
"The conclusion is that the Huns' encounter with us may have been an accident, and now they should be on the run." Fa Zheng gave a direct conclusion, "To put it simply, we may have opened the small world directly on the Huns' heads, forcing these Huns to stand up and delay time."
"Can I open the door to the inside of the world here?" Liu Tong asked directly. Discover the Huns and kill them. There is no other meaning. This is how the Han Dynasty is.
"This is the Wanxiang Temple." Chen Xi said speechlessly.
"Si Niang." Liu Tong turned his head and greeted Si Niang, who was clearly outside the small world but could still steal food from the imperial kitchen.
"Go and get the gold banknotes from the treasury." Seeing Si Niang's silly look, Liu Tong's tone softened and he spoke slower.
"Oh." Si Niang stretched out her hand, and then a thick stack of gold bills appeared in her hand, and then she handed it to Liu Tong.
“Although it’s not enough, the Wanxiang Palace only has 10 billion yuan, and I have saved a lot over the years.” Liu Tong’s sharp eyes revealed a certain stubbornness.
"Besides, when the flowers are all gone, you will still prepare what I want to eat, right?" Liu Tong continued without waiting for Chen Xi to speak.
"In fact, money is not a problem. Technology is a big problem. It takes time to move the gravitational zone from Shanglinyuan to Wanxiang Temple. Your Highness, you have been to the inner side of the world. There is an obvious error between the speed of time there and the surface of the world. Your Highness, guess, if the area where the Huns are located is consistent with Wenhe and Xiaozhi's inference and the current situation, how big will the difference in the speed of time flow be?" Chen Xi pushed back the stack of gold banknotes that he wanted to recover, and said with some helplessness.
Chen Xi couldn't help but let himself go sometimes, but his brain was basically sufficient. At least after Jia Xu and Fa Zheng pointed out that the Huns were short of population, Chen Xi realized a lot of things.
