Chapter 1837: Strange Thunder
As a spirit of heaven and earth, Xizhao was the most sensitive to abnormal auras. It was the first to say, "At least I can't sense it."
"Even if there are any remnants left, they are so thin that they cannot be verified. They will not be a concern for a long time."
"Let's rest here for a while," Qu Jianlei decided. "Before leaving, let's divine to see if there is a demon eye."
He wanted to tell fortunes now, but he was afraid that no one would agree. However, how could he leave with peace of mind if no fortune was told?
But before we rest, there is one more thing to do.
He found the spirit of the weapon and asked it to help check whether any of his people were contaminated by evil spirit.
Everyone has been in the small world for quite some time, so it is never too cautious when it comes to existence like the Heavenly Demon.
In particular, the demonic energy was once mixed with the spiritual energy of the small world, causing all the local natives to be infected.
The spirit of the weapon has a very keen insight. At least within the cave, its ability to perceive the demons is comparable to that of a great being who has reached the state of leaving the body.
It conducted a comprehensive inspection according to Qu Jianlei's instructions and told him with certainty that there were no hidden dangers.
In a blink of an eye, another two months passed and everyone's health had almost recovered.
Only Qu Jianlei's condition was not quite up to par, but at this moment, no one could stop his determination to divine once more.
Fortunately, the results of divination show that the space here is not particularly stable, but the Demonic Eye does not exist.
As for the unstable space, which may give the Demonic Realm an opportunity to take advantage in the future...that is not something they should consider.
Because they have no relevant preventive measures at all.
Even a powerful world like the Immortal Cultivation Realm cannot completely prevent the invasion of demons. Isn't it a joke to expect these half-baked people to do it?
Only when they decided to leave did they release Buckingham and the other three Supremes.
As for how to explain to these three people... Jing Yuexin said: It’s better for you not to know what’s going on here.
This is a bit unreasonable, but before this, they had already told the other party: Don't think about sharing our gains.
The team is willing to pay a certain price for the information provided by the other party, but you are not qualified to bargain.
Jing Yuexin offered a reward of one thousand spirit stones per person. If they didn’t want spirit stones, then it would be two hundred billion imperial coins.
There is no way these three would refuse spirit stones, let alone this kind of exchange ratio.
Two hundred million for one spirit stone... In the empire's trading market, there is no such price at all!
A company-class ship can be exchanged for three to four spirit stones - how unrealistic is that?
There is no way that spiritual stones can enter circulation. They are a resource that cannot be bought even with money.
When Jing Yuexin took out the three thousand spirit stones, the team members were a little reluctant - now that they had more spirit stones, they shouldn't waste them like this.
The key point is that it is useless for the other party to ask for the spirit stones.
However, Jing Yuexin believes that these three have already determined that the opportunity is related to the divine text system, so there is no need for us to be too stingy.
When you are in the world, you have to pay some attention to your reputation.
Buckingham and the other two were a little surprised by such a reward, but they were not too happy.
The three of them communicated for a while before asking Jing Yuexin, "Does your boss...mean the same thing?"
The main reason was that they didn't see Qu Jianlei, so the three of them were a little curious.
"The boss is recovering from his injuries," Jing Yuexin replied calmly, "Be content... We are losing money on this expedition."
It was such a loss. We paid so much, Qu Jianlei was injured, and a lot of consequences were incurred.
However, the team's gains were almost nothing. It was really generous of them to be able to take out 3,000 spirit stones.
Buckingham was a little skeptical of this, but was there any need for the other party to lie to him? "Boss...how did you get injured?"
"You have encountered a being that you cannot resist," Jing Yuexin replied calmly, "Luckily it is us who came this time."
Buckingham and the other two put away the spirit stones, but they were still a little unwilling. "That kind of existence... can you tell me about it?"
"A race of aliens that exist in the form of spiritual bodies," Jing Yuexin replied sternly, "If you encounter them, there will be no hope of survival!"
Iron Snake's face changed when he heard this, "Is it a passage to another world?"
"It's just a weak point in the space barrier," Jing Yuexin waved her hand, "As long as we don't actively trigger it, maybe nothing will happen."
"That's all I can say. Don't ask any more questions."
As they were talking, they drove a considerable distance away, and suddenly, a ball of white light appeared behind them.
Although it is white, there are faint hints of colorful colors flowing in the light.
"Is this... sailing out of the formation?" Nelson still remembered how fierce the formation was at the beginning.
Jing Yuexin took a look and had a strange expression on her face. "It actually recovered a part of it... What is the relevant mechanism?"
At this moment, Qu Jianlei was resting and noticed this scene. After being stunned for a moment, he shook his head speechlessly, "This is really..."
He also wanted to understand this mechanism, but he also understood that many methods of the powerful were beyond his ability to guess at the moment.
Therefore, it is useless to think too much about some things. When practicing, it is better to be down-to-earth.
Watching the white light ball moving away little by little and then transforming into a rainbow of colors, Buckingham suddenly asked a question.
"Master Jing, can we... explore here on our own in the future?"
Jing Yuexin replied expressionlessly, "If you are not afraid of death, just come!"
As for the fact that the other party's actions might bring disaster to the empire and make him a sinner of the human race... she was too lazy to say that.
If the other party listens to advice, then everything you say will be enough. If not, then no matter how much you say, it will be useless.
Buckingham nodded thoughtfully, and said nothing more...
By the time Qu Jianlei and his team returned to the Dawn Base, nearly a year had passed since they set out.
What came was good news: Youyou succeeded in reaching the Supreme.
She had gone through a thunder tribulation the month before last and is still recuperating.
The tribulation still attracted the attention of the military, but Dogan showed up at the first moment and flew into the sky.
As one of the only two supreme ones among the Digital Phantoms whose identities were made clear, she only needed to hang there without saying a word.
Moreover, the talisman manufacturing technology purchased by the government from them is currently in the process of being delivered, so naturally they have no intention of interfering.
However, even so, Youyou still stumbled while trying to overcome the tribulation and suffered serious injuries.
After the thunderbolt, an overwhelming amount of spiritual energy descended, but it still failed to completely make up for the damage she had suffered.
So much so that in the later stage of consolidating her realm, she had to lie in the nutrition cabin to absorb spiritual energy.
Fortunately, after two months of rest, I'm almost recovered now and will be able to be released in another month.
"Huh?" Qu Jianlei frowned when he heard that. It was the first time he heard that a tribulation could be so miserable.
"What went wrong?"
"Don't think too much about it," Jiao Daoist advised him, "I find that you are addicted to divination now!"
"Since you are cultivating immortality, there is no need to understand many things too well. If you understand everything, you will see too many secrets..."
"Okay," Qu Jianlei nodded. It can be seen from the girl's trip to the star field this time that knowing too much is really not a good thing.
And since Youyou survived the thunder, no matter how big the problem is, it won’t be a big deal.
Next, he took a serious rest and at the same time figured out a new method of producing spiritual liquid.
Qu Jianlei stayed in the Dawn Base for three days, and seeing that nothing was wrong, he teleported to the Federation again.
There was no other way. Only in the Federation could he use the Black Horse Tower to rest.
Buckingham and three other Supremes stayed at the Dawn Base for two days and then left on a starship.
The three of them were just there for the entire expedition, and although they did not experience too much risk, they did not return for a year after all.
They first arrived at the Dizhu Star, intending to deal with some things, and then return to their respective places.
However, on the second day, a visitor came.
Apart from Digital Phantom, the only people who knew the whereabouts of the three of them were the military near the Dawn Base, and they were well-informed.
In fact, anyone who dares to visit the three supreme beings at the same time must be of high status.
The one who came was the Giant Axe Carved on the Supreme, who used to belong to the military and is now the invisible boss behind the Divine Text Society.
But he was not arrogant. He greeted the three people in a friendly manner and chatted with them for a few minutes before asking about the expedition.
Iron Snake said calmly, we just went with them and spent most of the time in the room.
He knew that the giant axe carving was not easy to deal with, but you could obviously ask the Digital Phantom, so why did he find the three of them?
After all, they still don't dare to provoke those people and think they are easy to bully.
Anyway, he has made up his mind and will never say another word - if you really dare to force me, believe it or not, I will go over there and complain?
The giant axe didn't care and looked at Nelson. "Based on their style of doing things, they won't get nothing, right?"
Nelson is also a rebellious person. He said calmly, "The gain... there is one thing, I dare not deny it."
"But the risk is also very high this time, so I have no plans to cash out."
He wasn't worried about the other party forcing himself to inquire about the adventure, but if they tried to force him to buy his gains, that would be a real problem.
He could ask Digital Phantom for help on some matters, but he couldn't keep his own gains... How could he tell others about it?
If A-level encountered similar problems, it would be understandable for him to complain to someone, but he is already the highest and cannot afford to lose face!
So it is better to refuse from the beginning and make your attitude clear.
Hearing this, Giant Axe Carving smiled indifferently, "From the attitudes of the three of you, I feel like you have some prejudice against me..."
Qu Jianlei didn't know that someone was keeping an eye on his previous expedition, or rather, he felt there was no need to worry about it.
He rested for twenty days on the desolate planet of the Federation and was basically recovered.
The location where he practiced was no longer a secret within the team, and if others needed help, they could easily find it.
That day, he left the Black Horse Tower and found that there was no one around him except his clone, and he couldn't help but feel moved.
Then he took out the Boundary-Breaking Shuttle, looked at the shiny black little shuttle, hesitated for a moment, and took out the shells and tortoise shells.
