In the Blade

For Wenquxingjun, capturing Carpenter Li alive was just an accident.

He is just a mortal. Even if the other party has some special relationship with the extraterrestrial demon, it is far from the time when he needs to take action personally - even the so-called Wangyou Township can only be sent by him casually. Something that can be easily swept away.

Therefore, even if he knew that the extraterrestrial demon had been involved with some mortals, Wenquxingjun never thought of just sweeping them away. After all, as the old saying goes, no harm will come to the family. If he really acted as a powerful person, he would If some powerless mortal takes action, what should other powerful people think of him?

You must know that all great powers were mortals before they became great powers. No one has close relatives or close friends. You can eradicate the extraterrestrial demons today, but will you kill others tomorrow? Grass, remove other people's roots?

"I just set it up for myself..."

Previously, when he thought of this, Wen Quxingjun couldn't help but sigh like this.

If he was just an ordinary powerful man, it wouldn't matter if he did this. But now he needs to unite other powerful men, and he needs the power of other powerful men to jointly carry out a great cause. This will adversely affect his moral standards. With higher requirements - even if he is acting, he must show an appearance that can make other powerful people trust him.

After all, relying solely on his own words, even if all the Wenquxing Lords were added together, it would actually be difficult to complete a real conquest of the outside world.

Therefore, Lord Wenquxing originally planned to ignore this matter. As long as the extraterrestrial demon does not seek anything from these mortals, he will not deliberately do anything to these mortals - of course, there must still be necessary surveillance. After all, these mortals have entered his sight.

Then he discovered that these mortals were actually actively contacting the extraterrestrial demon.

Although the method was extremely rough and even seemed a bit ridiculous, in the final analysis, it was still right to take the initiative to contact - so Lord Wenquxing simply sent another one of himself casually, preparing to raze this so-called Wangyou Township to the ground. Try to see if you can use this method to stimulate the extraterrestrial demon and make the extraterrestrial demon stand up on its own.

But who would have thought that the other self he sent out not only failed to carry out his orders, but even brought Carpenter Li back to the Ten Thousand Stars Alliance.

This is completely different from what he wants.

"So, what's going on?"

Wenquxingjun frowned and looked at his other self who came back.

"This is different from what we agreed. How do you do things?"

"There is no reporting relationship between us, and it's not your turn to dictate what I do."

Another Wenquxingjun sneered.

Obviously, what the current Wenquxingjun said just now did not sound very good to other Wenquxingjun.

This also made Wenqu Xingjun take a deep breath. On the one hand, it was naturally to calm down his emotions. On the other hand, it was also to adjust his state. When facing other selves, it is better to be a little more cautious. , and even treat them as those powerful people outside, and consciously unite these other selves.

Otherwise... just like the other self in front of me said, there is no superior-subordinate relationship between them.

The person who knows him best is himself, and the person who is most dangerous to him is also himself. Just like when he killed the last Wenquxingjun and achieved a high position, God knows how many other Wenquxingjuns were secretly watching his position and thinking. I want to kill him and become the real Wenquxingjun.

"So...what happened?"

This time, Wenquxingjun showed a kind smile to his other self.

Of course, this is not true kindness, but even if it is only superficial kindness, it can greatly reduce his cost of self-management.

How to get along with yourself is really a science.

"So what exactly happened? Could it be that there was something wrong with the... person you captured?"

"You'll know just by looking at it."

Another Wen Quxingjun said excitedly, pulling him out.

This surprised Wenquxingjun. He knew himself well enough. He had always had a serious temper and would show excitement, which was a kind of gaffe for him. - This also made him a little curious. What kind of thing could make him, who has always been calm, show such emotions?

Soon, he saw the problem.

That is, the wooden man in front of him with half his body burned black.

"Isn't this just a puppet? It doesn't even have much workmanship."

When seeing this so-called problem, Wenquxingjun's body didn't notice anything wrong at the first time.

"It's just this kind of thing...well, this puppet can move and talk, which is really...wait a minute."

Wenquxingjun's body suddenly frowned.

At this moment, just like other Wenqu Xingjun, he also noticed the subtle but extremely obvious difference.

"this……"

Feeling the strange feeling in his heart, Wenquxingjun's body flew down from mid-air and began to carefully look at the wooden man in front of him.

This also made the wooden man even more panicked.

"You...what are you doing!"

The wooden man Li Mujiang tried to raise his hands to block the scrutinizing gazes.

"What on earth are you doing! You, how can you..."

At this moment, Li Mujiang was already scared. You know, he was not very normal when he came up - he originally thought that he could summon his good bear brother back, who could have thought that a white-haired old man with wide robes and big sleeves would come down and beat him up directly, and even catch him in the sky.

If it was just like this, it was actually still within Li Mujiang's understanding. After all, he had seen such things as beating and catching people before.

But he had never seen such a scene before.

There were dozens of people, all of whom looked exactly the same, and their scrutinizing eyes were exactly the same, and their gazes on him were exactly the same... Seeing those identical faces becoming more and more, Li Mujiang even felt that his brain was shaking.

Although it was hard to say whether a wooden man still had a brain, the fear was real.

So Li Mujiang fainted as a matter of course.

Carpenter Li fainted, but the Wenqu Star Lords would not give up the opportunity to observe, especially the Wenqu Star Lord himself. As the last one to come, he was the one who looked the most seriously.

Just because the aura of this wooden man that did not belong to this world was too obvious.

Just like the Wenqu Star Lords.

Although they always claimed that this was the aura brought by holding the magic weapon, only the Wenqu Star Lords themselves knew that this was not just a matter of holding it - all the Wenqu Star Lords were the products of the magic weapon. Maybe the first Wenqu Star Lord could not be considered, but where was the first Wenqu Star Lord now?

No one knew, even the Wenqu Star Lords did not know that the current Wenqu Star Lord had become a huge gathering called "Wenqu Star Lord". They did hold the magic weapon, but it could also be said that the magic weapon made them.

And now, they were surprised to find that the wooden man in front of them had the same aura as them.

"This..."

One Wenqu Star Lord wanted to touch the wooden man, but was pulled away by himself.

Obviously, in the eyes of these Wenqu Star Lords, the wooden man in front of them has become a special and relatively precious material.

And there is only one of this thing, and it doesn't even look very strong. If it is really broken, where can you find another one?

"Let's take a look first to see what's going on..."

In the end, it was the main body of Wenqu Star Lord who made the decision.

"Just use your perception to see, do you have to touch it with your hands?"

After reaching a consensus, these Wenqu Star Lords also had a method when doing things - after all, they watched for a long time without any progress, not because the Wenqu Star Lords really couldn't see anything, but because they were even dragging each other down.

Now that there is a unified statement, without each other's constraints, they can naturally exert their full strength.

So, in just a moment, they have already found out the strangeness of this carpenter Li.

"This... seems to be a remnant soul."

One Wenquxingjun frowned slightly.

"It looks like a crude resurrection ceremony... This person should have been dead, and someone called him back from eternal sleep. It just so happened that this mortal's desire to survive was strong enough, so it was barely completed..."

The boundary between life and death may be an insurmountable chasm for others, but for the powerful, especially the powerful of Wenquxingjun's level, it is not so difficult to understand.

But that's where the problem lies.

This resurrection ceremony was only barely completed.

"The ceremony was too crude, and the original body was not even found..."

Another Wenquxingjun stroked his beard.

"It's more like a forced application of mental power and willpower. Someone used these powers to change reality and forced the residual soul into this wooden body... Was it done by that extraterritorial demon?"

Yes, this is the judgment of Wenquxingjun. Just by looking at it, he has roughly guessed the whole process of the incident and even guessed who did it.

"But...that extraterritorial demon seems to have stuffed the wrong thing."

In the end, it was Wenquxingjun's current body that made the final judgment.

"That extraterritorial demon did summon the soul of the dead, but this soul, it seems, it doesn't seem to be..."

The last words were not spoken by Wenquxingjun's body.

But the other Wenquxingjuns have already understood the meaning of the words.

That extraterritorial demon did capture the remnant soul through some crude means, but the remnant soul that was called back was not the original dead person. This may not be accurate. After all, strictly speaking, the remnant soul is indeed the original dead person. Otherwise, the extraterritorial demon should have discovered that it was wrong, and this wooden man would not have lived until now.

If you really describe it in an accurate way...

The relationship between this remnant soul and the original body is more like the relationship between them, the Wenqu Star Lords.

They are all Wenquxingjun, each of them is Wenquxingjun, but all of them have their own ideas and styles of doing things - and the same is true for this residual soul and the original body, except that the difference between the two sides is probably not as big as that between Wenquxingjun, so the extraterritorial demon has never discovered it, and even thinks that this is a complete resurrection.

But in the eyes of Wenquxingjun, this is not a complete resurrection.

The original person was eventually replaced, and another self took over. Although in the eyes of outsiders, the other self is still himself, but in his own eyes, the other self is indeed not himself.

"No wonder it feels so familiar..."

At this moment, Wenquxingjun nodded one after another, and they finally found the source of this familiar feeling.

The existence of this wooden man is similar to theirs, no wonder when they saw this wooden man, they all felt that the other party seemed to be different.

"And from this perspective, the ability of the pair of demon soldiers... seems to be explainable."

Thinking of this, some Wenquxingjun even extended this idea to the pair of eyeball demon soldiers.

They had discussed before why the eyeballs of the extraterritorial demon could have such power, and even reflect another holder like a mirror - you know, they have seen some other demon soldiers, and the power of those demon soldiers is far less terrifying than this pair of eyeballs. This ability to directly summon another self... How did the extraterritorial demon do it?

But now, they all have the answer in their hearts.

It turns out that the extraterritorial demon really did this kind of thing, directly summoning another residual soul, and then stuffing it into the body of the wooden man...Should it be said that it is indeed the extraterritorial demon? This method is really cruel!

"No... It's different."

Just when the other Wenquxingjuns were discussing, Wenquxingjun's original body suddenly shook his head.

"Different... Completely different!"

As if he had discovered something, Wenquxingjun's true body quickly came closer and carefully touched the wooden man on the ground.

"Completely different, it's not like that at all!"

"What did you discover? Tell me!"

The other Wenquxingjuns began to be dissatisfied. They hated this kind of suspense the most.

"This...is not our form of existence at all."

Touching the wooden man on the ground, Wenquxingjun's true body frowned.

"This wooden man himself is a magic weapon!"
