After returning to the village, start chasing the mountain from binding Emei

Chapter 720 Zuo Ci’s remains, sword intent on the stone wall!
"Also, how many accounts are currently registered on the association's app? Who does each account belong to? Your official backend should be able to get the data, right?"

"Well, it is currently only open to members of the Shu Panshan Association, which now has nearly 10,000 members. Each account registration requires real name, and facial recognition is required during registration. We will verify the applicant's information..."

Although everyone in the forum basically uses nicknames, the association’s backend is sure to know the exact information of these nicknames.

Tens of thousands of people is not a small number. That person is hiding among them. Trying to find him is like looking for a needle in a haystack.

"What exactly do you want to do?" Wang Yuanchao asked in confusion.

"That's it..."

Chen Yang explained his discovery and plan to Wang Yuanchao in detail.

"I have two accounts now. As long as this person sees posts from these two accounts, he will take the initiative to contact them. We can group all the suspects, post using the accounts, and wait for responses. If the other party contacts us, then he must be in the current group. Using the elimination method, we can easily lock him down after a few tries..."

……

After listening to this, Wang Yuanchao's eyes lit up.

I have to say, this kid has a sharp mind and can come up with such a method.

But then, Wang Yuanchao said, "However, there are so many registered members. If you divide them into groups like this, how long will it take to score? If it happens too often, will it arouse the other party's vigilance?"

At this time, the food was served, and Chen Yang said, "If we try one account three or four times, it shouldn't cause any alarm. Besides, we don't need to classify all of them."

"The one who can become the contact person of Gushen Cult in Shu is definitely not an ordinary person. He is most likely a person in the Creation Realm. We have picked out the names of all the people in the Creation Realm who have opened accounts, and even the names of the Spirit Realm. The number should not exceed a hundred..."

"In addition to these people, we also picked out those who frequently log into the forum and are online for a long time..."

"Qian Huairen once posted on the forum. Find out who was online within ten minutes after he posted several times..."

"These people are all suspects. Once the function is developed, we will use the method I mentioned to eliminate them."

……

Wang Yuanchao ate with gusto and listened with gusto. "Young minds are active. I'll arrange for someone to do it this afternoon. But, I'm afraid it will take some time..."

"It's just a small function. How long can it be used? I may not have eaten pork, but I have seen pigs run. Only old men like you will be fooled. It's just a few lines of code. Let the person in charge of this work out this afternoon. If he does, there will be a reward. If he doesn't, he will pack up and leave..."

How much trouble can a small forum grouping function of an APP take? Chen Yang is not so easy to fool.

Wang Yuanchao's face trembled. Can it be done in one afternoon?
He really doesn't understand technical matters, but when the App was first launched, they mentioned some optimizations, and which one didn't take several days to complete with a lot of procrastination?
"Put some pressure on them. They can get it done in two hours, not to mention an afternoon. They are just bullying you because you don't understand. It's ok for them to slack off normally, but you can't let them shirk their responsibilities on this matter." Chen Yang said seriously.

Wang Yuanchao nodded. "Okay, I'll give the order in a moment. But have you ever thought about what if this person uses someone else's account, or lets someone else log in to the forum to monitor Qian Huairen and the others' posts..."

"That doesn't matter. As long as we find this person, we can naturally find out the person behind him." Chen Yang said.

Wang Yuanchao nodded repeatedly. Inspired by Chen Yang, his mind became active. "Why don't I ask them to add a function to follow friends' dynamics? When the users I follow post something, they can push information to me in real time. In this way, I only need to see who is following Qian Huairen and others..."

"Don't."

Chen Yang interrupted directly, "It's a good idea, but it's a little too obvious. If it were me, I would definitely not be fooled..."

"Ok."

Wang Yuanchao laughed dryly, "Just do as you say, but if we can't find anyone by then, you'll be fully responsible..."

Chen Yang gave him a glare and said, "If you can't find anyone, that can only mean one thing."

"What?" Wang Yuanchao raised his eyebrows.

Chen Yang said, "This means that this person might be you."

"What?"

Wang Yuanchao was stunned, then he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "Why are you dragging me into this?"

Chen Yang spread his hands. "My plan is so perfect, but I still can't find anyone. It can only mean that there was a problem from the beginning. This is something that only you and I know. I will definitely not disclose it to others. If it's not your problem, whose problem could it be?"

"Stinky boy."

Wang Yuanchao cursed with a smile, then said seriously, "Don't worry, I won't even tell Old Liu about this..."

……

-

Outside the association's office building.

Wang Yuanchao had gone to a meeting and had given instructions. All Chen Yang had to do now was wait.

Just wait for the functions to be developed and then cast a wide net.

"Boy, what are you and Wang Yuanchao discussing?"

When Chen Yang came out of the building, he was stopped by the old jujube tree in the courtyard.

Chen Yang stopped. The jujube tree had already bloomed and produced small fruits.

The association has also arranged for people to trim its branches and thin out its fruits. It looks much more beautiful than in previous times and exudes vitality.

Now, Chen Yang roughly knows the origin of this tree.

Once, Xuanqing attended a spiritual fruit banquet in Fashang Temple and brought back a fire date for Xuanjing.

Xuan Jing planted the pit of the fire date outside the Tianhua Zen Temple. There happened to be a jujube tree next to it. The jujube tree had already developed spiritual perception and absorbed the original energy of the fire date.

This made Xuan Jing's plan to cultivate a fire date for Emei go to waste.

Seeing that the jujube tree had developed spiritual perception, he took it in as his disciple and taught it personally. This jujube tree absorbed the essence of the fire jujube and perhaps it would become a different species.

As a result, Xuan Jing took great pains to cultivate the jujube tree, but found that the fruit it produced was not even a little bit inferior to the fire jujube.

The key point is that the tree's origin has been burned by the energy of the fire dates, and its ability to reproduce has been greatly weakened.

So, it was neither tasty to eat nor a pity to throw it away, so it was finally exiled here to serve as a guard tree for the Mountain Carving Association.

This is the life of this old date tree.

After following Xuan Jing for a long time, the tree also learned to swear and talk nonsense.

"I'm asking you a question, little brat. Are you pretending you don't know me?" the old jujube tree cursed.

Chen Yang touched his forehead and said, "Zao Lao, it's just that I have a good temper. If I were a little more impatient, I would definitely chop you to pieces..."

"Oh, do you have the guts?"

The old jujube tree chuckled. "Did you do what I asked you to do for me? Did you not do it for me?"

Chen Yang said, "Since I have promised something, there will be nothing I can't do."

"Oh?"

The old jujube tree was surprised and asked, "What do you mean? You got the job done for me? You grew the sapling for me?"

Chen Yang nodded slightly.

"Where is it? Why don't you bring it to me?" the old jujube tree asked hurriedly.

Chen Yang said, "Although it has been cultivated successfully, its foundation is still shallow. We have to wait for a while for it to grow a little bit more before sending it to you."

In order to prove that what he said was true, Chen Yang took out his mobile phone and found a video. Regardless of whether the old jujube tree could see it or not, he clicked the play button and shook the video towards the old jujube tree.

On the screen, there is a small bucket with a tiny jujube tree seedling growing inside it.

"Is it really done?"

The old date tree became visibly excited.

Chen Yang nodded slightly and put away his phone. "Mr. Zao, I have done this for you. I have also raised the saplings for you. Isn't it time for you to express your gratitude to me? What we talked about before..."

"This……"

The old jujube tree paused when he heard this, seeming a little embarrassed.

Chen Yang raised his eyebrows, "You are not lying to me, are you? What about Zuo Ci Sword Wall? Are you just trying to trick me? Old Zao, I hate it the most when people lie to me. If you lie to me, I can't guarantee that I can do anything..."

"Bullshit, how could I lie to you? I'm just worried that if I told you, you wouldn't be sincere enough..." The old jujube tree scolded coldly.

"Ah."

Chen Yang shook his head. "Who are you? How dare I not do my best? Old Zao, you must give me an explanation for what happened today. Otherwise, I will not raise your sapling anymore."

"Stinky boy."

The old jujube tree cursed, then said, "Okay, I'll tell you, but if you take the things and don't do the job, be careful that I will make this matter known to everyone and make you lose face..."

When Chen Yang heard this, his face was filled with black lines.

……

-

Tianhua Zen Temple.

Having nothing to do in the afternoon, Chen Yang went up the mountain and came to Tianhua Temple. He originally wanted to visit Xuan Jing first, but Xuan Jing was in seclusion and he didn't see him.

There are not many tourists today and the roads are sparsely populated. Chen Yang comes to the cliff outside the Tianhua Zen Temple, ready to look for the Zuo Ci Sword Wall mentioned by the old jujube tree.

According to legend, in the late Eastern Han Dynasty, the immortal Zuo Ci once lived in seclusion near Xixiang Pond to gain enlightenment on swordplay. There is a cave under the cliff, which is said to be the place where Zuo Ci gained enlightenment on swordplay. It can also be regarded as a tourist attraction near Xixiang Pond.

But the cave was ordinary and there was nothing useful in it.

According to Old Date Tree, Zuo Ci's retreat place was indeed nearby, but it was not the cave that was rumored to be there.

It was by chance that Old Zaoshu found the real cave, and even discovered a sword wall engraved with sword techniques inside.

Chen Yang was actually very interested.

Zuo Ci could be called an ancestor, so he must have been a Heavenly Man Realm existence at that time. The sword wall he left behind should be regarded as the inheritance of a Heavenly Man Realm powerhouse. Last time, Chen Yang had actually come to look for it, and even used radar to detect it, but he didn't find anything suspicious, which made him wonder if he was fooled by the old jujube tree.

This time, Chen Yang forced the old jujube tree to give him the exact location. If he still couldn't find it, he would have to go to the old jujube tree and talk it out.

Following the direction indicated by the old jujube tree, Chen Yang walked up along the edge of the cliff and soon came to a mixed wood forest.

The edge of the woods is blocked by a fence, with signs warning of danger and prohibiting crossing.

Chen Yang looked around and saw no one coming, so he flipped over, jumped over the fence, and quickly went into the woods. After a while, his figure disappeared.

……

The forest was full of bushes, dense weeds and thorns, making it very difficult to walk.

Chen Yang roughly estimated the distance in his mind.

The old jujube tree said that after entering the forest, walk along the edge of the cliff for about a hundred feet, and you will see a large stone on the edge of the cliff. That was the mark made by the old jujube tree.

From the location of the big rock, down to the middle of the cliff, there is a small platform. On the stone wall of the platform is the cave that Chen Yang is looking for.

A hundred zhang is more than three hundred meters. Chen Yang’s current radar detection range is three hundred and twenty meters, which is almost a hundred zhang.

With a quick look, I found the location that the old jujube tree said.

Sure enough, there was a stone standing on the edge of the cliff.

The stone is pointed and more than one meter tall. It seems to have been standing here for a long time and is covered with vines and moss.

Chen Yang stood beside the stone and looked down.

It is very deep. At a hundred meters, you can see a small platform.

The cliff is a bit soft, and it may not be safe to go down using the wall-climbing technique.

For safety reasons, Chen Yang took out a climbing rope from the system space, tied one end to a big tree, pulled it to make sure it was strong, then tied the other end around his waist and slid down quickly.

……

Two minutes later, Chen Yang stood on the platform.

This platform is a protruding stone on the cliff. It is not very large, only about ten square meters.

Looking down, the cliff below was very high. If he accidentally fell down, he didn't know if his body could withstand it.

Looking up at the cliff, it was covered with weeds and didn't look like there was a cave at all.

I scanned with my mental power, but found nothing.

Chen Yang walked forward, pushed aside the grass on the cliff, and felt a crack in the rock.

He placed his hands beside the crack in the rock and pushed down hard.

"boom!"

The cliff shook.

A stone area on the cliff, two meters high and one meter wide, sank several inches.

Chen Yang grabbed the edge of the stone and pulled it to the side.

Rumble…

The stone was pulled behind the door like an airplane cabin, and a portal appeared in front of Chen Yang.

There really is such a place.

Chen Yang showed a hint of surprise on his face.

It’s this place. If the old jujube tree didn’t tell us, who would have found it?
……

He just lifted his legs and walked in.

A dusty smell filled the air.

There are several stones inlaid on the cave wall, emitting fluorescent light, so the cave is not dark.

With Chen Yang's eyesight, it was not as bright as daylight, but at least it did not affect his vision.

The space in the cave is not big, only about fifty or sixty square meters.

On the left side of the cave wall, there is a stone bed, and on the right side there is a simple set of stone tables and chairs.

Apart from this, there are no other decorations.

The stone wall inside the cave is like a stone wall, three meters high and about five meters long. It is very flat and is polished from a whole piece of stone.

There are many traces of varying depths on the stone wall.

Like, sword marks!
That’s right, it was a sword mark, as if it was made by someone using a sword.

Chen Yang reached out and touched it, with a wonderful expression on his face.

Is this the sword wall that Old Jujube Tree mentioned?
This old guy is really good at fooling people.

He thought that the so-called sword wall would have some kind of sword skills inheritance on it, but in the end, there were only some sword marks, and not even a single word could be seen.

Moreover, over the years, many of these sword marks have weathered away.

Looking around, Chen Yang felt a little confused.

The cave was empty. Apart from the stone wall covered with sword marks, the only useful thing was the air.

It seems that I was fooled by the old jujube tree.

Chen Yang felt like ten thousand alpacas were galloping through his mind, and he knew that the old man was unreliable. As it turned out, he was really unreliable.

Sword wall!

Chen Yang took a deep breath, his eyes fell on the stone wall, and he probed his mental power over there to see if there was any other mystery in the stone wall.

"Keng!"

Just when Chen Yang's mental power approached the sword wall.

In a trance, it seemed that a sword energy was released from the sword marks on the stone wall.

Almost instantly, Chen Yang's approaching mental power was crushed into pieces.

Chen Yang felt as if his head was pricked by a needle and hurriedly stepped back several steps.

Looking up, Chen Yang was surprised.

The stone wall was still the same stone wall just now, an ordinary stone wall, as if nothing had happened, and it seemed that what just happened was just Chen Yang's illusion.

However, Chen Yang could be sure that the scene just now was definitely not an illusion.

"Old Tree, what's going on?" Chen Yang asked hurriedly.

"Sword Intent."

The Three Corpse God Tree quickly responded to him, "The sword marks on this stone wall were left by a sword expert, and they contain a trace of sword intent..."

"Sword Intent?"

Chen Yang raised his eyebrows. Jian Hen's sword intent almost hurt him.

How strong is one’s swordsmanship?

Chen Yang was extremely shocked. You know, if this sword mark was left by Zuo Ci, it would have been a thousand or two thousand years ago.

How could a sword force that had survived for a thousand or two thousand years still have such terrifying power?

The Three Corpses Divine Tree said, "Sword Intention is the most powerful inheritance of the sword. The truly profound swordsmanship is all about sword intention. Your swordsmanship is not bad, but you only have the form but not the intention. It cannot be considered top-notch..."

“Back then, Lord Shi was a swordsman who had comprehended the sword intent. Even without a sword in his hand, he could still mobilize the sword intent, envelop the power of heaven and earth, and pull the opponent into his own realm, causing great damage from the spiritual level…”

"However, this thing requires talent. You can try to comprehend this stone wall and see if you can comprehend a little bit..."

……

The Three Corpse Divine Tree explained in detail the information related to the sword intent.

Chen Yang was immediately excited.

In a word, sword intent is a more profound existence than sword energy and sword light.

"How to comprehend?"

Chen Yang looked up at the stone wall in front of him with a burning gaze, but for a moment he didn't know how to start.

"This one……"

The Three Corpses Divine Tree paused, "It's hard to say. I'm not a swordsman. You have to figure it out on your own."

Chen Yang's forehead was covered with black lines.

"What did Mr. Ye say?" Chen Yang asked.

The Three Corpses Divine Tree said, "It's the same as what I think. This kind of thing can only be understood but not explained. You have to comprehend it yourself. You have a good understanding, so maybe you will have a chance to succeed."

Chen Yang smiled bitterly.

Good understanding?
He felt that he had a good understanding. After all, he would get inspired and have an epiphany from time to time.

However, after his recent failure in comprehending the 315-tooth Sutra, he began to doubt his own ability to comprehend.
