Chapter 2036 Go show off
Under Zhu Jiayi's command, the palm-sized wooden shield flew into the air and instantly turned into a large shield more than ten meters high and nearly four meters wide.
What shocked Master Sanduo was that the thickness of the wooden shield was nearly two meters. "So thick?"
Zhu Jiayi did not answer him, but sensed it carefully again.
Not far away there was a patrolling member of the Zhu family. He sensed a strange atmosphere here and hurried over.
When they saw the Second Ancestor and Sanduo Zhenren standing there, they raised their hands to apologize and then retreated silently.
"Strange," Zhu Jiayi narrowed his eyes and muttered softly, "What kind of background is this?"
Then he asked Master Sanda to attack the wooden shield.
Master Sanduo drew out a sharp sword and slashed it hard at the wooden shield.
The grade of this sword is already high-level Jindan, but it is not his strongest attack. The name of Sanduo is really well-deserved.
Because he was worried about damaging the wooden shield too much, he deliberately chose a corner, but he struck with all his strength.
After all, it is a magic weapon that can withstand the attack of Nascent Soul, so it should be able to withstand it, right?
As he expected, he was able to withstand it, and a shallow sword mark was left where the long sword cut.
"The defense... is indeed okay," Master Sanduo nodded. It shouldn't be a problem to withstand a blow from the Nascent Soul.
But then, he was shocked to find that the Second Ancestor still looked thoughtful, and couldn't help asking, "Any questions?"
Zhu Jiayi pondered for a few seconds before muttering softly, "No... there is a bit of alien smell."
The alien species mentioned by the immortal cultivators is a general term that covers a wide range. "Second Ancestor, what do you think?"
Zhu Jiayi's expression was a little serious. "It feels like it came from a creature from another dimension... The possibility is not small."
In fact, he had some other guesses, but he was not willing to say them out loud.
With just a golden elixir, his ability to handle things is really poor.
However, even so, Master Sanduo was dumbfounded when he heard it, "Alien trees... Nascent Soul?"
"It must be Nascent Soul," Zhu Jiayi nodded, and couldn't help but comment, "This kind of refining mainly depends on the materials!"
It can be seen that he did not think highly of Hongyeling's equipment refining level, and he was almost saying it was a "waste".
However, Master Sanduo was still immersed in the surprise just now, "They killed the Yuanying of the alien tree?"
"This possibility... objectively exists," Zhu Jiayi's words were very cautious.
After thinking for a while, he said, "Aren't you familiar with several direct descendants of the Li family in Cuiping Mountain? Go and show off."
"Go show off..." Master Sanduo did not reject this order. He got the title of Sanduo by showing off.
But he obviously sensed that the Second Ancestor had other intentions, "You are suspicious..."
"I'm not sure." Although Zhu Jiayi is the Zhu family's think tank, he is not omniscient after all. "It would be better to discuss it with someone."
"By the way, how many spirit stones did you spend to get these three wooden shields?"
"No, no!" Sanduo Zhenren replied after a moment's hesitation. "How dare I talk about money when a real immortal bestows a treasure upon me?"
"Stupid!" Zhu Jiayi snorted coldly, then flicked his sleeves, "Remember to take inventory of your property!"
Master Sanduo was very efficient. After a few days, he took a few of his disciples to visit Cuiping Mountain.
It happened that the excitement over the Li family’s acquisition of the Nascent Soul Sword Box had not yet died down, so he used some tricks to get a close look at and feel the sword box.
To express his gratitude, he invited several familiar members of the Li family to dinner and drinks.
When he was half drunk, he talked about the changes in the current sealing formation and the dangers faced by the cultivators on patrol, and he showed off his wooden shield.
He did these things perfectly - it was just his true character.
"A defensive magic weapon of the Nascent Soul level..." Several young men of the Li family were extremely jealous. After all, the highest level of cultivation among the people present was only the Golden Core level.
Then some Jindan disciples expressed that they wanted to see the defensive capabilities.
Master Sanduo said that the refining technique of this wooden shield was average, and he hoped that everyone would show mercy when testing it.
This won't be a big problem. Although a bunch of bad friends usually joke around without taking the matter seriously, this is an extraordinary period.
Everyone tried it out a few times in the Li family's martial arts arena and found that the defensive power of this wooden shield was quite impressive.
One of the Jindan who was more skilled in refining equipment also expressed the same feeling, "This is purely because the materials are good, it's a bit of a waste!"
"Huh?" A light exclamation was heard, and a sixty-year-old man suddenly appeared outside the martial arts arena.
The old man was not good-looking and his clothes were ordinary, but the Li family members were all surprised and bowed deeply.
They said in unison, "Greetings, Grandmaster Handong."
The person who came was Li Handong, another Nascent Soul ancestor of the Li family. He raised his hand and directly took the big shield in his hand.
He looked at the wooden shield carefully, sensed it with his spiritual sense, and then looked at Master Sanduo.
"Where did you get this treasure, my friend?"
He vaguely sensed the aura of another world, and in surprise, he hurried over - after all, there were some unusual movements in the sealing formation.
Although the aura on the wooden shield was extremely weak, he lived long enough to notice the abnormality.
As for the refining techniques and the like, he had no interest in caring about them at all. The materials used were the key.
Li Handong also knew that the owner of the magic weapon was a good friend of the clan members, so he asked without hesitation.
Sanduo Zhenren bowed deeply first, "Greetings, ancestor, the origin of this treasure...you also need to ask my second ancestor of the Zhu family."
"It turns out to be the Zhu family..." Li Handong nodded slightly, threw the wooden shield back, and then disappeared in a flash.
At the same time, he sent out a divine consciousness, "Yuren, come here, I have something to do..."
Half a day later, Li Yuren came to find Master Sanduo.
He also took the wooden shield and played with it for a while before saying in a deep voice, "Take me to see your Second Ancestor."
Originally, this matter was not his responsibility, and his vision was not very good, but he was a rising star that the Li family was currently supporting vigorously.
Cuipingshan wanted to increase his knowledge, connections and influence, so most of the external affairs were handed over to him.
Two days later, Li Yuren met Zhu Jiayi by the Jade Lake.
He asked directly, "May I ask, fellow Taoist, where did the wooden shield held by Nian Di come from?"
Zhu Jiayi did not answer but asked, "Did your Li family's Handong ancestor also notice something unusual?"
"This material comes from alien races in another world," Li Yuren said with certainty. The Handong ancestor explained it very clearly.
However, he and Li Handong were more concerned about something else. "But what was obtained outside the Sealing Town Formation?"
"That's not the case," Zhu Jiayi shook his head and answered casually, "It was given to him by the forces under your Cuiping Mountain."
"Cui Ping Mountain's subordinates..." Li Yuren was stunned at first, then reacted, "Hongye Ridge?"
"What a joke! How dare Cuiping Mountain take them under its wing... Are they really the ones?"
Zhu Jiayi nodded when he heard this, "Nian Di is shameless and insisted on asking for something to defend himself. Daoist Qu is also very caring towards the younger generation."
"If it's them, then it wouldn't be surprising," Li Yuren nodded slightly as he thought.
Then he said thoughtfully, "Ancestor Jiayi, why don't you and I go together?"
"I won't go, so as to save you from talking inconveniently," Zhu Jiayi shook his head slowly, "After all, it involves another world."
Li Yuren also understood that the other party had a plan just in case.
If the people in Hongyeling were spies from a foreign race, Zhu Jiayi would not go, at least those who knew about it would not be caught in one fell swoop.
Although this possibility is almost non-existent, when the tiger people invaded in the past, even stranger things happened...
The cultivators of Dongsheng have been preparing for war for hundreds of years, so they are still very vigilant.
Li Yuren smiled indifferently, "They shouldn't be that kind of people, but fellow Taoist, just wait for my news."
A day later, he came to Hongye Ridge again. After seeing Qu Jianlei, he couldn't help but complain.
"I think it's necessary for me to move in with you. Do you have any vacant caves for cultivation?"
"You talk weirdly," Qu Jianlei replied nonchalantly, "It's you who can't sit still."
"There are no vacant caves, and it's not convenient... What are you here for this time?"
Li Yuren stared at him and asked, "It's inconvenient. Do you mean the alien trees?"
"Huh?" Qu Jianlei turned his head and looked at him seriously before smiling nonchalantly, "Did the Zhu family contact you?"
Li Yuren observed him very carefully, and found that the other person's expression was unusually natural and open.
He said seriously, "I want to know where this material comes from... Fellow Daoist, I am serious."
"What's there to say?" Qu Jianlei raised his eyebrows indifferently, "We have hunted this kind of alien race before."
Li Yuren looked at him seriously, "I want to know the details and the situation of the town sealing formation."
"The Sealing Formation has nothing to do with us," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "Besides, why are you asking me for details?"
This may sound a bit impolite, but it is actually normal. As a cultivator, who doesn't have some privacy?
Not to mention the strength that Hongyeling is showing now. It is definitely a giant in Dongsheng Continent. How can he not be angry?
Li Yuren was silent for a while before he asked, "Are there no alien races outside the town sealing formation?"
It’s not that he didn’t believe what the other party said, but he had to get to the bottom of this matter.
In order to avoid causing the other party to be disgusted, he now starts with the details, slowly and roundaboutly, and then draws a conclusion.
Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at him again, "You are really ignorant. First of all, let me tell you something..."
"This alien race is called the Tree Race. They come from the Locust World and are associated with the alien locusts."
"Secondly, they can indeed teleport through the void, but we don't know what is happening outside the Sealing Town Array!"
"I understand," Li Yuren really understood this time. No wonder the other party was so unhappy.
It turns out that the tree was attacked from another world and was someone else's spoils of war.
However, he had never heard of this world of locusts, and he didn't know whether they had ever experienced war.
If not, where did you get the information from?
"Is it the Ashura world... that other world?"

Chapter 2037 Tucao (Please give me double monthly votes for the third update)
In response to Li Yuren's question, Qu Jianlei gave a straightforward answer, "Yes, it is that kind of different world."
"As for the details of the locust world and how to deal with it... Sorry, you have to figure it out on your own."
Li Yuren certainly knew that this information was not for sale, and no matter which force obtained it, it would not be shared with outsiders.
Asuras consider conquering another world as a good job, and immortal cultivators think so too.
Why should outsiders ask for this valuable information that others have fought hard for?
At this point, Li Yuren was already 99% convinced. The key point was that he believed that Hongyeling could really conquer the other world.
After a pause, he asked again, "So you gave the wooden shield to the younger generation of the Zhu family, and you didn't mean to warn Dongsheng?"
This was also his previous guess. Even if the people coming outside the sealing formation were indeed the Tree Clan, Hongyeling might not be a traitor.
If this low-probability event really happened, Li Yuren would also think that Hongye Ling's giving of the wooden shield was more likely a hint.
"I haven't thought about it that much," Qu Jianlei answered without hesitation, "The younger generation of the Zhu family came to ask for help, and I don't have much to hand out."
Li Yuren was also aware of this. On the way, he had already asked the golden elixir of the Zhu family.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but complain, "So my Li family is an outsider."
"The Li family didn't ask me, did they?" Qu Jianlei asked casually, "Does it mean that if your family doesn't want it, I have to take the initiative to chase after it and give it to you?"
"Then I want it now," Li Yuren said without hesitation, "How much do you have left?"
"How much do you plan to take?" Qu Jianlei raised his eyebrows. He actually kept quite a few remains of the Tree Clan.
Mainly the Empire and the Alliance, they have no interest in the remains of the Tree Tribe.
Although the material is good, in the Age of Discovery, who could be short of alloy?
If we seriously want to use the remains of the tree tribe to make warships, there are still too many difficulties to overcome.
Therefore, their attitude towards the wreckage is to destroy it specifically to prevent it from becoming nutrients for other tree species.
But it’s different in the world of immortal cultivators. The energy erosion of the tree remains has basically no effect on the immortal cultivators.
Qu Jianlei also thought of this when he was drifting in the void, so he tried to refine some wooden shield magic weapons.
Regardless of whether they can be used or not, it never hurts to have more of these things in the team.
As for his skill in refining magic weapons, there is no need for others to complain, he knows it very well.
There was no other way. He had not inherited any weapon refining skills. Being able to enlarge and shrink the wooden shield was already good enough.
Anyway, he made a lot of wooden shields, and he didn't even plan to sell them at first.
But now someone has come to him, and he has explained the origin of the tree tribe. They can be sold publicly and he can make some money back.
"You have a lot of this stuff?" Li Yuren raised his brows. "How many are there? I want them all!"
"There's too much to buy at Cuiping Mountain," Qu Jianlei replied calmly, then pointed at the flower scorpion in the distance, "Go talk to her."
He had no interest in bargaining.
It just so happened that the last time he sold the repair fluid, Li Yuren took advantage of him, so this time, let Flower Scorpion help him get revenge.
"I feel a murderous aura," Li Yuren looked at him with a smile.
In fact, he also remembered very clearly how Lord Qu Ling threatened him fiercely last time he took advantage of him.
Now I feel that this retribution... came too quickly.
Joking aside, he still asked, "Are there any unused Tree Tribe remains?"
"Yes," Qu Jianlei nodded, "but it's not for sale...you don't have to think about it."
Zhu Jiayi could feel the power of space on the tiger man's corpse, and the tree tribe's corpse might reveal something else.
The real purpose is to make it into a magic weapon and sell it, and you can also get a share of the processing income, so why sell the raw materials?
Li Yuren frowned upon hearing this, "The key is your level of refining equipment... it's really a waste of resources!"
"Oh," Qu Jianlei nodded, and calmly sent a message to Flower Scorpion, "The price will increase by another 50%!"
Flower Scorpion pursed her lips, trying not to smile, but the upturned corners of her mouth fully exposed her mood.
Haha, those wooden shields were all made by the boss himself.
Li Yuren did not discuss the details with Hua Xiezi because he had learned his lesson this time and also brought a few Jindan tribe members with him.
Why did Zhu Niandi, the youngest of the Zhu family, get the upper hand first? It was because he came to Hongyeling every day!
The younger generations of the Li family have not done enough in this regard, and they have to rely on him, the ancestor, for everything!
While the people below were negotiating, Li Yuren and Qu Jianlei were chatting casually.
Li Yuren wanted to know more about the Tree Clan, but Qu Jianlei was tight-lipped.
"Bring a few manuals here, and I can consider telling you something you want to know."
"This knowledge is too expensive," Li Yuren replied helplessly, "By the way, can we still find the entrance to the world of the tree tribe now?"
Qu Jianlei couldn't stand it any longer. "Always testing me, are you done yet... Do you want to capture a few more tree slaves?"
"There's nothing wrong with that," Li Yuren replied casually, "It's mainly because the Nascent Soul materials are so enviable."
Qu Jianlei nodded silently. He was chatting with the other party, but he was not just idle.
At least he had probed out the attitude of the immortal cultivators towards other races - they didn't necessarily have to be killed, as long as they could be effectively enslaved.
On this point, the tolerance of the immortal world towards alien races is far higher than that of the Empire, the Alliance and the Federation.
Generally speaking, this is still due to the cultivators' self-confidence and their belief in the ultimate control ability of the immortal world.
Just like the immortal cultivators in the past, they actually allowed a race like Asura to govern a region on their behalf in another world. This is clear proof.
But there is no doubt that there is still a problem of cost-effectiveness.
As Asuras, it is basically impossible for them to appear in the world of immortal cultivation as slaves - because their value is too low.
Of course, all this is based on effective control over alien races. If this cannot be guaranteed, don't even think about slaves.
Qu Jianlei secretly calculated in his mind, if that was the case, then Feng Wangxi and even the giant hammer... seemed to have a chance to show up?
However, "effective control" is indeed a big trouble. There are no signs of slavery on the bodies of those alien Yuanying.
Either he swore an oath to the heavens, or he was intimidated - the key point is that Taoist Jiao is only at the Nascent Soul stage and cannot effectively enslave the other party.
These alien Yuanying have undergone many tests by Qu Jianlei's team and can basically be trusted.
Now that they have arrived in the world of immortal cultivators, which is the base camp of immortal cultivators, they should be even less likely to stir up trouble.
But the key point is that Qu Jianlei really couldn't show that the other party was under the effective control of Hongyeling.
This is a bit regrettable, but after confirming the news, at least we have a direction to work towards, which is a good thing.
While Qu Jianlei was thinking secretly, Li Yuren began to ask him another question, "By the way, do you know the world of demons?"
Qu Jianlei glanced at him and couldn't help but complain, "I say, Cuiping Mountain's heritage... is a little insufficient. The Ji family knows it."
"I'm just curious," Li Yuren replied angrily. "Although there are many records in the clan, they cannot be guaranteed to be true."
"As for the Ji family, who can be compared to their antiquity?"
Then he raised his eyebrows and asked with interest, "Have you discussed this with Ji Xiaohua?"
"Ji Xiaohua is much more honest than you," Qu Jianlei snorted, "unlike you, who is young and only knows how to take advantage."
"I asked about the demon because it was for the good of Hongye Ridge," Li Yuren couldn't help but defend himself.
"Huai Heng's infant died from his inner demon. Baiyao Valley is making every effort to investigate which force had contact with the demon before."
"Are they fucking sick?" Qu Jianlei couldn't help but swear, "Is this how you investigate demons?"
"Then how do we check it?" Li Yuren tilted his head and looked at him curiously.
"To check the demonic energy," Qu Jianlei replied unhappily, "You don't even have this kind of magic weapon, do you?"
"Yes, but not much," Li Yuren answered casually, "It sounds like you also have this kind of magic weapon, can you borrow it?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head and answered simply, "It's not convenient."
"Haha, isn't that right?" Li Yuren laughed. "Even Hongyeling cherishes its own things, so why should we talk about others?"
We have our own reasons... Qu Jianlei curled his lips but was too lazy to explain.
But he didn't want to talk to this guy anymore, so he stood up and said, "If you hadn't mentioned it, I would have forgotten that the Ji family also needs wooden shields."
Li Yuren was stunned when he heard this. "Master Qu Ling, didn't you say you would sell all of it to Cuiping Mountain?"
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Qu Jianlei asked casually, "I'm not doing monopoly business myself, so I'll let you do it?"
Li Yuren is certainly not stupid. He asked that question just now just to try to gain his advantage - if the other party can't lose face, then he will gain something, right?
Seeing Qu Jianlei was about to leave, he couldn't help but say, "Wait, count me in!"
After following him out of Red Leaf Ridge, he couldn't help but ask again, "Master Qu Ling, are you going there in person?"
"Ji Xiaohua treated Hongyeling with sincerity," Qu Jianlei answered casually, "and gave him many out-of-body secret manuals. I should return the favor."
Please make it clear to me, they have paid a real price.
Out-of-body experience... secrets? Li Yuren couldn't help but twitch his lips slightly. This Ji family really has a deep foundation.
“There can’t be any more techniques that can help you leave your body, right?”
Qu Jianlei glanced at him and said, "Who said I don't have it? Not only do I have it, I have two sets!"
He also included the repeated fragments, but it was not an exaggeration. Ji Xiaohua must have brought two sets of exercises at that time.
Anyway, he thought it was necessary to publicize this matter - if I don't tell you, how can you get excited? Go ahead and roll it up hard!
"Two sets..." Li Yuren paused for a moment, "You're crazy, are you going to stop living like this?"
Qu Jianlei ignored him and said, "So I care about the Ji family, and they deserve it."
