Chapter 2698 Treasures That Move People
The reason why True Lord Kanshui agreed so easily was because the other party had made it clear that he had not easily refused beforehand.
Since this junior is so perceptive, let's skip the formalities of putting on airs and being pretentious.
However, after listening to the True Venerable finish speaking, it was startled again.
"Hmm? It seems to offer some help to races other than human cultivators as well?"
Qu Jianlei answered without hesitation, "It's mainly about resource accumulation and utilization, right? As for insights, well..."
"Only you human cultivators emphasize comprehension," True Monarch Kanshui chuckled, "You're born with little talent, it's truly pitiful."
You're... showing off your background? Qu Jianlei was somewhat speechless. Have you ever thought about why the human race can stand at the pinnacle of all realms?
However, he had no interest in refuting it. "Under the Great Dao, all are but ants. Who can be without pity? Senior, it's your turn."
"That's a small matter," Bai Wu said casually, then gave a light hum. "Hmm, the aura of the Heavenly Inclination...you've collected it yourself, haven't you?"
If we want to analyze cause and effect, we definitely need to gather all the relevant information.
“The aura I collected isn’t quite pure,” Qu Jianlei replied seriously. “To get the best results, we need to go to the entrance of the void passage.”
The True Lord Riding the Dog is stuck there again, and I won't repeat the reason.
"That's going too far!" Bai Wu remained unmoved. "My stance was made clear on the first day."
"You can refuse," the young woman's voice rang out leisurely, "but Wan Tianqing... poses no threat to you!"
"That's the one that can save the world!" Bai Wu sneered. "Are you out of your mind?"
“I’ve already intervened,” the woman said calmly, without adding anything further.
Kan Shui Zhenjun remained silent for a moment, then suddenly burst out, "Of course you're not afraid, but do you think all non-human cultivators are unafraid?"
"Stop with your act," the young woman scoffed. "Aren't you afraid... of what I said!"
"This is... really boring!" True Monarch Kanshui sighed. "You know I don't want to be tainted by bad luck!"
“Alright, whatever you say,” Tai Yuanhai said casually.
Qu Jianlei waited for a while, and when he realized that no one was speaking, he coughed lightly and said, "Then I'll go and do other things."
Although the purpose of inviting True Lord Kanshui was not achieved, nothing was paid for; he simply explained a new way of leaving the body.
It was originally just a try-it-out idea; I'd be happy if I succeeded, and it wouldn't matter if I failed.
"Wait a moment," True Monarch Kan Shui said, then paused before continuing, "Don't tell anyone about this."
However, Qu Jianlei smiled slightly and said, "If it's inconvenient for the Great Lord, then forget it. I was just asking."
"I'm already very happy that they've exempted me from paying my gold reserves."
“You seem to have a very clear understanding of life,” Kan Shui Zhenjun sighed softly. “Fine, I’ll accompany you on this journey.”
When Kan Shui Zhenjun went to the entrance of the passage this time, he even concealed himself from the white mist, just like Taiyuan Sea, he was completely invisible.
Riding a dog, True Venerable was at the entrance of the passage, staring at each other intently with Lian Xing's other two True Venerables.
All three of them were blocked outside Houde Realm, which is really a bit...
However, to their relief, it was inconvenient for Han Wei and Yue Ran, the two True Venerables, to enter Houde.
In addition, there is the Spider Lord, who drags a vast middle-thousand world, so there's no need to even try to enter it.
As the three were staring at each other, two figures appeared in the blink of an eye. They were Qu Jianlei and Han Li. "Kui Niu Zhenzun, come with us."
"My title is Zhihong..." True Venerable Riding Dog muttered to himself, but didn't really care.
It's a good habit for a True Venerable to use nicknames when traveling, even if the title "True Venerable Kui Niu" is a bit of a slap in the face.
He had no idea that the nickname the other party secretly gave him would be even more hurtful than this.
The three sped along, and before long, they had arrived billions of kilometers away.
Then Han Li raised his hand and released the palace, saying, "Let's discuss matters inside."
The three of them left not only ostentatiously but also hastily. Although no one dared to chase after them, watching from a distance was nothing unusual.
Some people also locked onto the aura of the True Venerable Riding a Dog, using cause and effect to perceive and divine.
As for the fact that even Star Cultivators' aura is disliked? That is indeed the case, but that effect is limited to Great Lords and above.
For the True Venerable, this decaying aura would at most cause discomfort, but would not cause any further harm.
The lifespan of an Out-of-Body cultivator is six thousand years. As long as he doesn't worry about being distracted... even in Xing's current state, he can at least withstand another two or three generations of Out-of-Body lifespan!
However, once the Three True Ones entered the palace, no one else dared to challenge them.
Jin Ge and Song Yue'er comforted them, saying that everything would be fine in a little while.
This was Qu Jianlei's first time entering the palace. He found it shrouded in a light mist, with wisps of white clouds in the distance, as if it were a world unto itself.
Some of the flowers, plants, and trees used for decoration don't have any mythical beasts or anything like that, otherwise it would really look like a cave dwelling.
Because of the thin mist, the whole view was not clear at first, but one could sense that the space was quite large, far exceeding what was seen from the outside.
It has a bit of the feeling of seeing Mount Ling, but there is also spatial distortion inside.
Qu Jianlei couldn't help but exclaim, "That's really extravagant... I really admire your courage."
"We've already taken it, what's there to say?" Han Li said calmly. "It's just that the refining process is a bit slow."
“I’m telling you, you’ve already gone too far,” Qu Jianlei said, somewhat speechless. “I’d appreciate it if you could take action, senior.”
"I have already made my move," a voice echoed from the void, its origin unknown.
The palace was already shrouded in a light mist, and it itself was a cloud of white mist, so whether it was invisible or not was no longer important.
Riding Dog True Venerable was somewhat taken aback, "Senior? This... this wasn't my initiative to come."
“This is none of your business. Stand there and don’t move,” the Great King of Kan Shui said impatiently.
About ten minutes later, it said, "There is less than 50% relevance."
“Less than half a percent…” Qu Jianlei frowned. “Could you be more precise?”
Less than half a percent sounds like a low probability, even lower than the success rate of Dogan's Astral Projection.
However, probability and probability are not necessarily the same thing.
The probability of resolving a catastrophe of the magnitude of a cataclysmic event is zero in the vast majority of worlds.
In other words, as long as there is a probability, there is a possibility, and he can only find the answer by frequently trying and failing.
Comparatively speaking, a five percent probability is not particularly low.
"So many demands," muttered Kan Shui Zhenjun, and after about five minutes, he said, "Two cents and four cents."
Two point four percent...that's a bit too low. Qu Jianlei sighed, "Then forget it, thank you for your trouble, Your Majesty."
Even if we went to that world and finally found a solution, how long would that take?
Even if I'm not currently preoccupied with anything, the world of the lizardmen would only be a relatively low-ranking option.
"No need to thank me, it's just a transaction," Kan Shui Zhenjun replied leisurely, then suddenly asked, "Would you like me to take a look at you?"
Its words were rather vague, but Qu Jianlei still understood them and shook his head, "Never mind."
"There are some things I don't want to involve my seniors too much."
The other party clearly wanted to probe me; on the surface, they probably meant... to check on the progress of saving Tianqing?
But Qu Jianlei wasn't that naive. Who knew what else the other party could see besides the progress of the event?
What if the photo reveals a stele? That would be so pointless.
“Alright, we’re even,” Kan Shui Zhenjun emphasized again.
You can sense that it really cares about drawing a clear line and doesn't want to get involved in the cause and effect of Tianqing at all.
"Kan Shui, stop it!" Tai Yuan Hai's voice suddenly rang out, "This is someone else's junior's spoils of war!"
"Hmm?" Han Li raised an eyebrow upon hearing this: They actually want to attack my palace? That's going a bit too far!
"What are you thinking about?" True Monarch Kanshui replied unhurriedly, "Just pure curiosity, um, curiosity."
"Just because you're curious doesn't mean you have to crawl under the floorboards, does it?" The young lady really didn't hold back at all.
Although Kan Shui Zhenjun was invisible, he still saw the expressions of the three True Venerables and could only offer a few more explanations.
"This palace is quite natural, and its layout is also... Hmm, I just want to see its structure. Although the person is a True Venerable, this is a trophy!"
Not only did he steal the magical artifact from the distracted spirit, but he also brazenly took it for himself...
Even if he is the Great King, he would have to think twice before he tries anything.
"Heh, do you think I don't know your personality?" The woman scoffed, clearly disbelieving. "I hope you really do understand."
“Water flows downwards…” True Lord Kan Shui muttered softly, unsure if it was his final explanation.
After everyone left, Han Li packed up the palace and handed it to Qu Jianlei, saying, "Keep this for me for now."
As he spoke, he gave me a look that clearly conveyed: Please help me handle this.
He knew that Qu Zhenzun had a special artifact among his trump cards, designed to deal with powerful divine souls or divine thoughts.
However, Kan Shui Zhenjun's behavior made him somewhat distrustful.
Although Taiyuan Hai had already given a warning, who knows what the outcome will be?
What if the other party has some hidden methods? Wouldn't that be terrible?
For the young lady, it's enough that she can raise a warning; you can't expect a great lord to do more for no reason—that just doesn't make sense.
Cultivators ultimately have to rely on themselves and cannot place their hopes on others... Well, a cultivation partner is, of course, one's own person.
Qu Jianlei had a sudden thought and put away the palace.
Not only Kan Shui Zhenjun, but even Qi Gou Zhenzun understood their actions.
He couldn't help but secretly admire: He truly deserves to be the one who saved the day... He even has the ability to handle the True Lord's actions!
As the group arrived at the entrance of the passage, they ran into Xiaoyou, who was bringing Han Wei and Yueran.
Xiaoyou asked hopefully, "What did I gain?"
“Hey,” Qu Jianlei shook his head, “I asked that senior to take a look… Grandmaster Jin Ge’s luck is so-so.”
Upon hearing this, Jin Ge, who was not far away, raised an eyebrow and said, "We've already tried our best to get back so late, haven't we?"
Do you think everyone has the same abnormal luck as you?
