Chapter 2809, Section 2911: Leap Forward - 12 Too Difficult (Two-in-one chapter, please vote with monthly tickets)
Chapter 2911 Leap Forward (Second Update)
Qu Jianlei was injured because he encountered rejection and conflict.
However, the synergy between the two elements greatly enhanced his efficiency in absorbing the element of time.
This operation completely bypassed the assistance of the Dao Stele!
After numerous trials, Qu Jianlei was able to absorb a time element within a day without the aid of a Dao stele!
Even taking into account the body's recovery, as long as enough time element can be found, absorbing one each day... can be sustained for a long time!
Of course, this is still incomparable to his efficiency in transforming life force.
But these two are not the same thing at all, okay?
Qu Jianlei was not satisfied. "I feel that we can continue to improve efficiency. The mystery of time... it's too easy to get lost in it."
However, Jing Zhenzun's question almost broke his defenses: "Can the time-saving effect also appear on yourself?"
"A doctor cannot heal himself!" Qu Jianlei gave a bitter smile, then sighed, "I'm already trying my best to make the most of the time."
"I don't want to do this kind of long-term job either, but there's nothing I can do. This is the fate of being a tool!"
“I understand,” Jing Yuexin nodded, “but you can try it and see what benefits it might have for the development of young lives…”
"Well... I will," Qu Jianlei's lips twitched slightly, "but I won't consider it in the short term. I need to improve myself first!"
"Boss, let's put away the Daoist tablet first," Luo Fu suggested. "They might be back anytime."
"Put it away, the fluctuations might stop soon," Qu Jianlei thought with a hint of regret.
But that's about it. It's been over a year since Han Li left with them, and the external pressure has never stopped.
"Well, there's always a limit to how much you should do things, but it will take time to stop."
Gao Wei is too unpredictable. Even if he manages to gain some advantage through various means, he absolutely dares not let his guard down.
Another month passed, and Qu Jianlei finally put away the Dao stele.
As expected, another commotion broke out in the Silent Zone. Without the suppression of the Dao Stele, chaos reigned once more...
But for Qu Jianlei and his two companions, this was nothing. They had already weathered a sudden disaster, so what was this?
Two months later, as the fluctuations subsided, Qu Jianlei was already braving the immense pressure to continue profiting from the losses.
However, some things, once they happen, can never be undone, and from time to time, he still tries to capture the element of time.
However, time is much harder to capture than vitality, and their scales seem vastly different. They are both the same thing, but... they are truly different.
Qu Jianlei intuitively felt that the elements of time and vitality could not be described using the same word "element".
Jing Yuexin expressed her unconditional agreement with his statement.
"Different forms of existence should not be measured by the same method!"
"Boss, we can develop a new measurement system specifically for measuring various high-dimensional elements. I believe..."
"Do you prefer a boy or a girl?" Qu Jianlei interrupted her abruptly. "Have you chosen a name yet?"
"Huh?" Jing Yuexin was taken aback when she heard this, and then she realized, "That's true... you really don't have that much time."
"But names aren't important, are they? What's important is their future titles. Everyone says there are wrong names, but none of them are..."
"I mean..." Qu Jianlei was speechless. "Could it be that time and vitality cannot be classified in the same dimension?"
"Senior brother, boss," Luo Fu was getting a headache from listening to this, "your thinking is too jumpy!"
Do you think I want this? Qu Jianlei smiled upon hearing this, "You two, stop talking. Time is limited. Let's find that ethereal feeling first."
Time is running out. The quiet zone has been in turmoil, and people outside may not have been able to observe the situation, which is why no one was sent.
Things are gradually returning to normal, and the external pressures have not changed significantly, indicating that they are still within a controllable range.
So sending someone in next is highly probable, and there shouldn't be any problems.
Neither Jing Yuexin nor Luo Fu had ever entered a state of ethereal clarity, so they couldn't even get a chance to exploit the life force!
Qu Jianlei believes he must urge the two of them to accelerate their efforts in this area.
Unfortunately, three days after he said this, the space fluctuated and a Möbius strip appeared.
She sensed her surroundings and casually released a group of True Venerables. "What... have you been doing all this time?"
"Time!" Xiao You stared intently at Qu Zhenzun. "You succeeded?"
There is an objective gap between her and the True Lord's realm, but she has cultivated the divine power of time and has been keeping an eye on the element of time.
Even after more than a year, she still can't forget that feeling!
Qu Jianlei glanced at her, but instead of answering immediately, he asked, "Where is Han Li?"
“I’m here,” a small ball of light trembled twice, “I’m glad you’re alright!”
"You..." Qu Jianlei was originally prepared with a belly full of anger, intending to unleash a torrent of rage.
But seeing his appearance, I couldn't help but be taken aback, "What's wrong with you?"
"Is that even a question?" the ball of light said quietly. "I lured... you know away!"
You distracted me? Qu Jianlei was really... Oh well, whatever makes you happy.
There are too many unknown mysteries in the higher dimensions, and he is not sure whether Han Li will be safe if he blocks 99% of the cause and effect.
Maybe the other party really thinks that they took away most of the cause and effect and harm. Who can be sure?
He gave a soft snort and nodded slightly. "This... you've ruined all my plans!"
"I know it won't stump you!" Han Li only replied with this sentence, without defending herself.
Jing Yuexin looked at Jin Ge, "Master of Arts, what exactly happened?"
There's not much to say about what's happening outside...
After Han Li rushed out with the Divine Palace, not many high-dimensional beings chased after him in the Silent Zone; in fact, it was only about one percent.
However, some faint fluctuations appeared in the surrounding void, as if they had attracted higher dimensions from other directions.
Just then, Bo Ping Zhenjun returned. Upon seeing this, he didn't say a word and flew away with Han Li.
As he ran, he kept cursing, "What the hell did you guys do?"
This situation is similar to the last time he fled with Lianxing cultivators; it's somewhat like being targeted by Tianqing's aura.
Even Bo Ping Zhenjun couldn't be completely certain, but the familiar recipe and familiar taste... were basically the same!
To be honest, when it comes to dealing with Tianqing, who has more experience than Lianxing cultivators?
Next, Bo Ping repeated his previous escape experience.
Although it's a bit humiliating, there's nothing we can do. We're all part of the "Saving Heaven" team; we can't just stand by and watch someone die, can we?
Bo Ping was also annoyed, so during his escape, he tried to figure out what they had done in the Silent Zone.
Then, he really couldn't get angry anymore and could only say, "You guys... you're too bold!"
Lianxing cultivators understood all too well the terror of higher dimensions; how could they have imagined that a mere True Venerable would actually dare to touch the element of time?
However, Xiaoyou remained quite calm, "Qu Zhenzun can capture life force, am I that much worse?"
When geniuses clash, it's best for ordinary people to stay out of the way. Even Bo Ping Zhenjun couldn't say much.
He wasn't afraid of anything—the person behind him was just a True Lord.
The key point is that everyone here is here to help Lian Xing, so which side should he side with?
Qu Jianlei was right. That trace of the higher-dimensional pursuit aura was extremely weak, however... higher dimensions really are everywhere.
Bo Ping led this group of people on a frantic run for more than three months before they finally broke free of the lock.
By the time it was confirmed that there were no more signs of life here, more than three months had passed.
They returned just over two months ago, and fortunately, they learned that no further incidents had occurred in the Quiet Zone.
The young woman even joked, "Xiao Qu always calls me an experienced driver, but I think you can drive much faster than me."
She was joking, but Bo Ping Zhenjun felt deeply ashamed, yet... he had no way to refute it!
In the past two days, everyone has noticed that the Quiet Zone is much more peaceful.
He did some divination and found that the danger had greatly decreased, so he brought in a group of True Venerables to see what was going on!
“We’re really fine,” Qu Jianlei replied casually, “but Han Li, what exactly happened to you?”
"Feeling sleepy, taking a nap," the ball of light disappeared, and the handsome young man appeared. "Does rescuing Tianqing mean you can't let people sleep?"
"Do you know how badly you've wronged me?" Qu Jianlei roared in anger. "Do you know how much blame I've been taken for?"
"You're the one who kicked me out!" Han Li sneered. "You absolutely can't let me stay!"
If you put this in someone who doesn't understand what you're saying, then the ship of friendship is doomed—it has to capsize, without the slightest hesitation!
But any smart person would understand – he didn't immediately deny that he had tricked someone!
If we're talking about how he took away both of the major sources back then, it can't really be considered cheating people, right?
However, the fact that Han Li didn't focus on the main issue shows that he also knew that Qu Zhenzun had helped him avoid disaster later!
However, Qu Jianlei didn't take it seriously. "I'm too lazy to deal with you. Next time, I'll team up with Jing Zhenzun!"
The incident caused by Han Li was originally intended with the best of intentions—even at the cost of his own life.
Ultimately, the outcome was positive; under immense pressure, he learned to absorb the element of time.
However, Qu Jianlei really couldn't stand such impulsive behavior during battle—what was the point of discussing it beforehand!
Yes, you want to leave in danger, but what would that make me?
Xiao You and Lian Xingkun, who were taken away by you, weren't they... a little wronged as well?
Ultimately, nothing can be accomplished without rules. When walking hand in hand on the road, we cannot be too willful!
Anyway, your own True Venerable has grown up, Han Li, you should... reflect on your actions!
“Me too,” Luo Fu spoke up.
She calmly stated, "There are only three True Venerables in Red Leaf Ridge. We must work together and ensure that no one is harmed."
------
Chapter 2912 Too Difficult (Third Update, Seeking Monthly Tickets)
Luo Fu had not forgotten her origins in the martial arts world, but now that she had come to the world of cultivation, she had to clarify her own roots.
"Red Leaf Ridge..." The corner of Xi Wu Zhenzun's mouth twitched slightly. Did that indicate his stance?
Upon hearing this, the handsome young man's eyes twitched twice. "If I had known you'd act like this, I wouldn't have left!"
"You should focus on recovering!" Qu Jianlei glared at him—he's already turned into a ball of light, and he's still being stubborn!
Some people's self-destructive habits are truly ingrained in their bones.
He had barely finished speaking when Xiao You couldn't help but interject, "Qu Zhenzun, the aura of time on your body..."
"Don't rush, speak one at a time," a female voice interrupted, "What kind of behavior is this!"
There aren't many things happening outside; the key thing is what's happening within the quiet zone, which everyone is extremely interested in.
Luo Fu was mute, and Jing Yuexin was unwilling to say more, so Qu Zhenzun had to explain.
He said whatever he could say, but anything that could be vague... well, it had to be vague.
The matter of absorbing the aura of time could not be hidden from Xiaoyou—she had already given a hint, and the other Great Lords would probably be able to sense it to some extent as well.
Therefore, he could only say that he had absorbed some time rules by chance.
However, he also emphasized, "...in my perception, the dimension of the time element should be slightly higher than that of vitality."
He felt he had spoken very solemnly, but Bo Ping Zhenjun's eyes lit up upon hearing it, "A higher dimension?"
“It really will fall,” Qu Jianlei replied helplessly. “Senior, do you think I’m someone who’s overly attached to my own possessions?”
Hearing this, everyone was speechless. On this point, no one could say that Qu Zhenzun was wrong.
He may be a little stingy, but he is never ambiguous about important matters and is quite particular about details.
Bo Ping Zhenjun hesitated for a moment before speaking, "Then how much did you absorb... never mind, it certainly wasn't much!"
Xiaoyou continued to press for details, "What are the procedures for the absorption process?"
"Alright," Han Li actually spoke up. He and Qu Zhenzun might argue and bicker, but when it came to speaking up, he was never ambiguous.
Is this kind of question appropriate to ask in this kind of setting?
"Alright, everyone has worked hard, so I'll just offer a little something in return," Qu Jianlei said seriously.
"To put it simply, it's practically impossible to preserve the essence of time. If you have any ideas, you should first improve your understanding of time."
Can such a seemingly insignificant message really be considered a token of goodwill? It's quite true!
Qu Zhenzun himself preached the Dao, deeply understanding the value of information. What does it mean that "a true transmission is contained in a single sentence, while a false transmission fills countless volumes"?
Moreover, the fact that he was able to confirm this information shows that he himself had made too many attempts!
"Tsk," Bo Ping Zhenjun clicked his tongue upon hearing this, expressing his regret, "So, the only way to preserve it is through absorption?"
That's the weight of those words; those who understand truly understand.
"Preserve?" the Möbius strip uttered. "You want to absorb it and then peel it off... Young friend Qu, can you do that?"
"I didn't dare to think about it," Qu Jianlei shook his head without hesitation.
What a joke! The life-transformation tool is already suffering enough; he definitely doesn't want to also be a "time container tool."
Han Li spoke leisurely, "Then I must congratulate Fellow Daoist Xiao You!"
Can you all stop focusing on Qu Zhenzun? There's another one who can use the power of time travel.
"Hmm," Xiao You nodded slightly, then cupped her hands in greeting to Qu Zhenzun, "I hope you will guide me in the days to come."
The handsome young man's lips twitched slightly, as if... he had messed up?
“Xiaoyou,” Han Wei spoke up, “Give your master’s blue lotus…we can’t ask for nothing.”
“Alright,” Xiao You flipped his wrist, and a ball of cyan light appeared in his palm. “Please accept this, fellow Daoist.”
Seeing this, Han Li couldn't help but secretly roll her eyes.
"No need," Qu Jianlei hurriedly waved his hand, knowing that accepting the green light would bring him great consequences.
If something else goes wrong, even if he once rebelled against the Great Lord, he can't possibly lay a hand on Xiaoyou's master, can he?
He said seriously, "My unexpected encounters are not unrelated to fellow Daoists. Let's exchange ideas."
Once you reach the True Venerable realm or above, who can escape cause and effect?
The impact of this matter in the future is destined to be significant, and he is unlikely to easily relinquish his interests.
However, cause and effect objectively exist, even if they are very weak. But if we conceal them in private, our moral compass will inevitably be clouded, which is not worth it!
The handsome young man remained expressionless, only slightly pursing his lips.
Immediately afterwards, a female voice rang out, "Oh, so it was Xiao Qu who touched someone's peach? Then we should have a good chat."
Xiao You's lips were curled up, but upon hearing this, her pretty face instantly turned bright red, "Ancestor, you..."
"I deserve some credit too!" Han Li couldn't hold back any longer. "Qu Zhenzun, just tell me, isn't that right!"
Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at him. "I didn't intend to hide it from you, but... there are conditions!"
“I know,” Han Li said readily. “You don’t need to say anything. I will fully trust you from now on!”
He was fully aware of the nature of what he had done, but he always believed he had sufficient reasons.
He did not deny Qu Zhenzun's extraordinary talent, but after all, he had only been out of the body for a short time, right?
When faced with extreme danger, should I really just sit idly by and watch the other party solve it alone?
But now, he had to admit that he might have underestimated Qu Zhenzun.
Qu Jianlei nodded slightly upon hearing this; he knew all too well how arrogant the handsome young man was.
Hearing these words from the other party was already enough. "Hmm... it's really hard to master, but luckily you've been tempered by fate."
Upon hearing this, Prince Boping couldn't help but interject again, "Can't the True Lord listen in?"
Qu Jianlei thought for a moment and said, "Let's leave first and find a place to explain things briefly..."
"However, if we really want to explain it clearly, I think we need to choose a time and have a discussion... I don't have a complete understanding of it either."
"Let's go, let's go," the Möbius strip couldn't help but say, "Let's figure this out first, are we bringing the ritual objects out too?"
"Let's pause here for now," Qu Jianlei thought, and the axe disappeared. "We can't reveal this."
This time, the group entered a middle-thousand world, brought by the Möbius strip.
She has gone all in, and recently brought all her savings with her, with the main strategy being to use whatever she can get her hands on.
Besides her and Bo Ping, the True Lords listening in included Tai Yuan Hai, Wen Shi, Da Wu Gou, Jing Zu, and Wu Chen... They could only endure it for now.
However, they were not in a hurry, since Qu Zhenzun had already agreed to consider another Daoist debate in the future.
If it's about the True Venerable, then it's only Han Li, Xiao You, Luo Fu, Jing Yuexin, and Lian Xingkun!
The last one also relates to the cause and effect of this matter, and it's inappropriate to exclude them.
With Bo Ping Zhenjun protecting her, anyone who tries to forcibly extract anything from her will have to think twice.
Being within the Middle Thousand Worlds, Qu Jianlei had fewer reservations and could explain things more clearly.
"And... tempering the body through creation?" True Venerable Xiaoyou looked bitter. "This will take time."
After she finished speaking, she couldn't help but look at Han Li with envy—you made your move so early!
"I haven't mastered the power of time," the handsome young man rolled his eyes, "You're already a level above me!"
“This is eye-opening,” the Möbius strip couldn’t help but say, “but these prerequisites are really too difficult to achieve.”
Even someone with her True Monarch level of cultivation would utter such a sentiment, which shows just how difficult the operation was.
“Hmm,” Wen Shi Zhenjun sighed, “Alas, I could give it a try, but… the threshold for Zhenjun is even higher!”
His understanding of creation, birth and death, and time is not bad; he can give it a try.
However, the karmic consequences of the True Lord's intervention in the same situation are clearly greater than those of the True Venerable.
In theory, he could try, but the risks would be no less than those of Qu Zhenzun, and the probability of success... was not optimistic.
Especially when facing higher-dimensional beings, if they fail, even the Great King will be in deep trouble.
The other True Lords also understand this principle—such an operation, while seemingly replicable, is actually almost impossible.
Xiao Qu's success was due not only to luck, but also to his extraordinary talent among those at the same level!
However, if Han Li and Xiao You could receive Qu Zhenzun's support, their chances of success would be slightly higher.
In the end, it was Bo Ping Zhenjun who said, "It's amazing, but... will it help to save the world from collapse?"
The element of time was extracted from higher dimensions and absorbed—I wonder if anyone has ever done this before.
Perhaps there are exceptions. After all, given the vastness of the cultivation world, it's not surprising that some lucky individuals occasionally emerge with extraordinary fortune.
However, no one had any prior knowledge of the relevant concepts.
So even if someone has done it before, it can only be because of luck!
Qu Zhenzun's account was not very detailed, but that was due to a lack of understanding, not because he didn't want to talk about it.
In short, a replicable approach has been roughly outlined, which is absolutely groundbreaking.
Bo Ping was certainly surprised, but then he realized his current situation—was this considered neglecting his duties?
However, the young lady spoke up, "It's not impossible. Have you always... underestimated fate?"
Taiyuan Laozu rarely participated in discussions of Dao, but no one dared to easily question her insights.
“Fate…” Bo Ping Zhenjun fell silent.
“Let’s give it a try,” said Wen Shi Zhenjun. “The three of you will be the ones operating it; we’ll just be the witnesses, okay?”
He was so curious that he would feel unsatisfied if he couldn't see it for himself.
There's no need to go into details about who the three people are; they are definitely the Three Heroes.
"I don't care," Han Li said decisively, and Xiao You nodded in agreement. "Okay... Qu Zhenzun, what's this?"
Qu Jianlei's expression suddenly turned a bit ugly, and everyone couldn't help but secretly guess: Was he unwilling?
This reaction... isn't actually that excessive. They've already explained their ideas, but everyone still insists on trying to jump on the bandwagon.
This is somewhat like asking someone to do something they can't possibly understand.
"Suddenly... I noticed something unusual," Qu Jianlei's lips twitched slightly, "Please wait a moment."
The next moment, his body began to become ethereal, and at the same time, Jing Yuexin's body flashed and disappeared without a trace.
