Chapter 637 Framed

[Oh dear, I think I'm seeing things. Hongmu not only has the paper cranes of the River Basin Sect, but also the iron rods of the Weapon Sect, the wooden plaques of the Earth and Wood Sect, the bluebirds of the Beast Taming Sect, and the communication tubes of the Soaring Cloud Sect. It's like Doraemon; how come he has the secret communication tools of so many sects?]

What is Doraemon?

Just a character from an anime.

What anime is it? I don't know it. Is it good? Is it 2D or 3D? Is it holographic?

Stop! This is just a trivial matter. I'm still wondering how Hongmu managed to acquire so many mediums for transmitting secret techniques.

Forgive me for saying this, but honestly, these things made of rosewood are pretty useless. In the end, they're just for decoration. She doesn't know how to use them, and she can't use them anyway. Even if she found them, stole them, or acquired them through some other means, if she can't use them, they're just ordinary objects, more for decoration than anything else.

How do you know she doesn't know how to use Hongmu? What if she does?

Seeking Wealth: Stop talking nonsense. Sect secrets aren't passed on to outsiders. If she really knew them, they wouldn't be secrets anymore; other sects would have learned them long ago. Some small sects don't even have their own communication tools and have to buy the patent rights from others on the black market for a huge sum. Similarly, if Hongmu knew them, I won't say anything else; I'll go and promote her right now and praise her for three days and three nights straight.

Yeah, that's true. Secret techniques aren't easily learned.

Just watch, I see she's starting to make a move.

Jiang He took out a paper crane.

Even if you haven't eaten pork, you've still seen pigs run, right?

Once you've seen it, you'll naturally learn it.

None of these secret techniques could transmit sound, so Jiang He wasn't worried about being exposed. She quickly spread the news that the eliminated cultivators had discovered the crystal core through the secret techniques of various sects.

Upon hearing the news, the cultivators scattered throughout the secret realm were all overjoyed.

Their fellow disciples have discovered how the clues appeared; this must be shared with the other cultivators.

The use of secret techniques sometimes takes time, and so the knowledge spread from one group of people to another. Soon, all the cultivators from various sects in the secret realm knew about it.

"The elimination of the person has led to a clue. Do you know if the sect cultivator who first spread the news mentioned who obtained the clue?"

"They didn't say. It must have been obtained by our sect, otherwise how would we know about this?"

"No, if they had obtained the clues, they would have mentioned them. I suspect they didn't. Perhaps they witnessed other sects obtaining clues and then sent the message back."

"More news has come in. It says that the Lingyun Sect eliminated the cultivators from the Liuyu Sect, which is why the crystal core was exposed."

"It seems that's correct. In that case, we should pay attention to those from the Lingyun Sect. If there's a chance to eliminate them, we can do so or extract clues from them."

"Row."

After receiving the message from Jiang He, the cultivators within the secret realm engaged in similar conversations.

Jiang He simply shifted the blame onto Lingyun Sect. To make the information more accurate, she mixed truth with falsehood, making it difficult to detect any logical flaws.

Looking at Jiang He's incredibly skillful techniques, netizens began to doubt her identity. They wondered if she was a sword cultivator, as they had never seen a sword cultivator with such a quick mind.

Jiang He's actions were truly beyond the knowledge of netizens. They couldn't figure out when Jiang He had secretly learned these secret techniques, and the framing tactics were so skillful that it was hard not to suspect that Jiang He had done this kind of thing frequently before.

Viewers started sending comments in the live stream, and in doing so, they thought of the arrogant viewer from earlier.

[@Seeking Wealth, you can stick your face out now.]

How come Hongmu knows everything? He's skilled in swordsmanship, alchemy, and now he's even learned the secret techniques of other sects.

She probably learned them by stealing; she knows so many skills, her learning ability must be very strong. Looking at the sect's communication tools she took out, they were all things she'd seen these cultivators use; I think she probably took them from cultivators she'd fought.

This skill is amazing! With Hongmu present this year, the Xiaoyao Sect has almost stirred up the whole mess by herself, like a rat dropping in a pot of dung.

Is that how you praise someone...?

Haha, sorry, I've been watching too many folk storytelling performances lately, and a metaphor just pops into my head every now and then.

Seeking Wealth: I'm coming clean. Damn, I misjudged him again. I mean what I say. I've already posted an analysis of the rosewood competition. Interested netizens can take a look. It turns out I was blind and misjudged him. Rosewood is a pearl covered in dust. We were blind to its true value!

You're so flexible and adaptable, Brother Qiucai, I'm so moved I could cry.

Haha, I was just about to tag Qiu Cai and tell him he got slapped in the face, and here he is!

It's good that they've stirred up the waters. I think the planner's intentions are similar to Hongmu's; they both quite suit our audience's tastes. It'll be exciting to watch these sects fight each other!

I think this year's planners are pretty cunning, hiding clues in a place like this. Tell me, eliminating people is supposed to trigger clues? Isn't this just forcing cultivators in the secret realm to kill each other and eliminate one another?

They're really cunning. The news spread so quickly that some sects couldn't wait to make their move; it seems they wanted to test it out.

Ugh~ Let's all fight! I love watching fights and all sorts of scheming and backstabbing.

Agreed! Let the storm rage on!

"Senior Sister Hua, news has come that eliminating cultivators from other sects may yield clues."

Ying Fengyi pulled the sword from the demon's body, plucked out the crystal core and immediately absorbed it. Feeling pain in her abdomen, a hint of impatience flickered in her eyes.

"Who sent the message? The transmitter has an identity; find out."

"It seems to be Zhang Yunsheng from Huishui Peak."

Ying Fengyi felt extremely depressed thinking about the damage Jiang He had caused him with that sword that day.

That injury still hasn't healed. My body was already leaky, and now my dantian has been injured. It's truly a double whammy.

Even she didn't expect that this person would grow up so quickly in just five years.

This is also one of Ying Fengyi's inner conflicts. Back then, it was the same for Yu Cui, and it is also the same for people related to Yu Cui now. It was clearly a hundred years of cultivation that she had to increase, but Yu Cui caught up with her in just a few years.

Ying Fengyi composed himself and said again:

"Zhang Yunsheng was eliminated yesterday; the message sent through the intercom was carefully compared."

"Yes, Senior Sister Hua."

They waited for Fengyi to charge into the forest and take the demon's head.

The remaining cultivators who had followed regained their senses:

"That's right, Zhang Yunsheng has already been eliminated, so how could there be any news coming back?"

"I was so surprised that I forgot about this. The elder personally collected our spiritual energy information into the communication tube. We already knew about Zhang Yunsheng's elimination yesterday."

"Can this news still be believed?"

"You can trust it. Just listen to your senior sister's verification. Besides, I think the information is probably true."

"Senior Sister Hua is amazing. If she hadn't reminded me, I would never have remembered this."

"I wonder if the cultivator who got the clue saw it or deduced anything. I'm a little curious."

"As Senior Sister Yihua said, we can just fight our way through and there's always a chance we'll find some clues."

"That's right."
