Chapter 176 Predator 2
Chapter 176 Predator 2
Xie Sheng took a deep breath, his chest rising and falling slightly, as if even he was having trouble digesting the news.
He calmed down for a moment, then continued with difficulty: "The predators have a strong ability to imitate. In order to study them, the Alliance has killed many monks by mistake, but only a few predators have been caught."
"As time goes by, the number of predators continues to grow in the dark, and their imitation of humans becomes more and more perfect."
"Sometimes, even some subtle habits and emotions can be imitated perfectly..."
“They don’t know if the people around them are still the same people, and they don’t know if they have been targeted by predators.”
"A few days ago, Yuan Wang, a member of the core team stationed in the alliance, was found to be a plunderer."
"The top leaders at the junction have begun to realize that the extent to which the predators have infiltrated the world of immortal cultivation is probably unimaginable."
"If this secret continues to be concealed, the consequences will be disastrous."
"At the end of your game, all sects received a notice from the alliance. We were asked to gather all disciples and start an emergency investigation of suspicious persons from within."
After hearing what Xie Sheng said, several disciples were shocked.
They never thought that the Fallen Species could evolve to such a terrifying level!
Jin Cancan was able to remain calm. She asked calmly, "Elder, this concerns the safety of the entire cultivation world. Hasn't the alliance developed a method to accurately distinguish between cultivators and predators?"
"If we just rely on speculation, won't everyone be in danger? As long as someone accidentally forgets what happened yesterday, or makes a few mistakes in swordsmanship, they will be accused of being a plunderer. Even more serious, what if someone uses this to settle personal grudges and slanders us out of thin air?"
Sun Nongqiao nodded slightly and frowned, "That's right. If internal strife is triggered by groundless suspicion, it will only make things worse for the entire cultivation world."
Xie Sheng nodded slightly: "The alliance already has several ways to distinguish. Although there are still deviations, after continuous improvement, it can guarantee a 70% accuracy rate."
Jin Cancan's heartbeat was already abnormally fast, but her tone was very calm: "What method?"
Xie Sheng shook his head slightly: "Keep it secret for now."
After that, Xie Sheng took out five spirit gathering bottles, distributed them to several people, and said in a deep voice: "Inject your spiritual energy into them until the spirit gathering bottles are full."
Several people did as they were told.
Jin Cancan lowered his eyes, channeled his spiritual power to his fingertips, and guided the spiritual power to slowly flow into the spirit gathering bottle.
It is easy to guess that these bottles will be sent to the border and "differentiated" using special means.
She didn't get any useful information now, and Xie Sheng was watching her the whole time she was inputting spiritual power. She couldn't do anything and was completely in a passive situation.
"Jin Cancan, are you still not well?"
Xie Sheng's voice rang in my ears.
Jin Cancan's fingertips trembled, and she raised her eyes slightly, only to find that Xie Sheng had already taken the spirit gathering bottles of several other people, and now only hers was missing.
"I'm fine, Elder." Jin Cancan responded immediately and handed the spirit gathering bottle to Xie Sheng.
Xie Sheng put the five people's spirit-gathering bottles into the storage bag, and said solemnly: "The direct disciples and elders of each sect must be personally checked by the people at the junction. Don't leave the sect until the results come out."
Jin Cancan and the others responded in unison: "Yes."
Xie Sheng nodded slightly: "Let's go."
Several of the disciples were not as active as usual. No one spoke, and they left the meeting room quietly together.
Jin Cancan and his companions left the main peak and walked all the way down. When they passed by the martial arts training ground, they found that all the other disciples of their sect were gathered together.
There were a few unfamiliar people, wearing clothes from the border area, and seemed to be fiddling with some tools.
"Are they queuing up for inspection?" Sun Nongqiao stopped and spoke uncertainly.
Jin Cancan also looked over and nodded slightly: "It seems so."
Yan Qiyun folded his arms and looked for a while, then said silently: "Let's go take a look?"
Jiang Chao and Yan Qiyun said in unison: "Let's go and take a look."
Anyway, after learning about the plunderers, they couldn't concentrate on their training today, so they might as well go and see what was going on.
In the martial arts arena, Xueying had just placed a few spiritual mirrors in place when she caught a glimpse of a golden figure.
Jin Cancan also saw him and waved at him: "Hello again, Master Xueying."
Xueying: "..."
She was quite outgoing, had she forgotten the time she was interrogated by him?
Xueying didn't want to pay attention to Jin Cancan. The Lingxi Mirror required powerful spiritual power to support it and was very complicated to activate. He was not in the mood to pay attention to her.
Jin Cancan seemed to have no sense at all, and leaned over to look: "What kind of mirror is this? Are people from your junction so vain that they don't forget to look in the mirror when they do things."
The moment the words fell, the Lingxi Mirror was activated.
The mirror was facing Jin Cancan, and it did not show her face, but the outline of Jin Cancan's soul.
In the Lingxi mirror, the colors of her soul were mixed, the chaotic colors intertwined with each other, and the light flickered.
Xueying narrowed her eyes slightly and replied in a cold voice: "This is a spiritual mirror, and it is also a magic mirror. It can distinguish whether the person standing in front of the mirror is a human or not."
Jin Cancan's fingers curled slightly, her face full of interest: "Oh? Then am I a human?"
Xueying sneered, staring at her with his eyes, and replied slowly: "There is an essential difference between the souls of monks and plunderers."
"The soul of a cultivator has been tempered by cultivation and has the spiritual charm and aura of a cultivator. The soul of a plunderer is a fallen species. Even if it can inherit memories, the essence of its soul is still different from that of a normal cultivator."
As if to make the display of the Lingxi Mirror more intuitive, Xueying pushed Jincancan away and stood in front of the Lingxi Mirror. The mixed colors in the mirror dissipated, revealing a soft and pure golden light.
Xueying raised her lips, tied up Jin Cancan in a lightning speed, and smiled unpredictably: "If the person in front of the mirror is a normal cultivator, he will emit an orderly light."
"And the soul of the plunderer will flicker and have mixed colors just like yours. That's because there is a conflict between the soul of the fallen species and the soul of the original monk, or the fusion is incomplete."
The faces of the people who came with Jin Cancan changed drastically. Yan Qiyun immediately stood in front of Jin Cancan, expressionless: "Please let her go, sir. Jin Cancan is a direct disciple of the Tianping Sword Sect. We know very well whether she is a plunderer or not."
Lin Yanqiu was even more rude: "What a broken mirror! Our elders have said that the test results are only 70% accurate. This semi-finished product should be destroyed immediately and not used to harm others."
Having said that, he and Jiang Chao started to untie the rope on Jin Cancan.
