Chapter 2079 The Unspeakable Upper Realm
The two foolish brothers Tiandi are good at chess and divination, but strictly speaking, they are good at fortune-telling.
I won't go into too much detail, but the minds of these two were in sync with each other and were chosen by a master to be his disciples, and they carried forward the tradition.
The two of them have a skill of working together in chess, which is not only difficult to detect, but also has little backlash, although it is very mentally exhausting.
Simply put, chess calculation is not ordinary divination. The emphasis is on calculation rather than divination. The backlash is small but the results are usually vague.
If the two brothers calculate together, the result will be much clearer. This ability is unique in Zhongzhou.
After Huo Jiujian captured the two men, he said that you have provoked Hongyeling and hoped that the virtuous brothers could make amends.
Hongye Ridge has become famous in Zhongzhou recently, but given the temperament of the two fools of heaven and earth, they are generally not intimidated by any force.
——Even if we can’t win, can’t we run away?
However, there is one reality that the two brothers have to face up to: Hongyeling became popular in Zhongzhou because it became famous for fighting the demons.
The reason why the two were willing to be blocked by the people from Daye City was not because Zhongzhou would be relatively safe in the future?
Then it is necessary to help Hongyeling to predict the future, which is just the right time to resolve past grievances.
Anyway, the fact that these two dared to tell fortunes for people from the Star Palace shows how brave they are.
The whereabouts of the stone jar has been revealed, but at the same time, Tiandi Shuangyu also said that this stone jar...has a lot of consequences.
When they were playing chess, the backlash was indeed small, but the mental drain was a bit unbearable, so they planned to rest for a while before playing again.
So there is no definite result yet, but it is not far from being announced.
Huo Jiujian narrated the whole process and asked Lord Qu Ling to wait for a while, while at the same time he cleared up the grudge between the two fools of heaven and earth.
Qu Jianlei expressed that he was very grateful for City Lord Huo's kindness and he would definitely repay him in the future.
As for the feud with the two fools, he said that the team didn't care much about it and many things could not be taken care of.
But at the same time, he also pointed out that the other party had mainly offended the leader of the Five Friends Alliance, and he needed to obtain the forgiveness of the Immortal Yongheng.
If Immortal Yongheng is unwilling to forgive, Hongyeling, as a partner of the Five Friends Alliance, will respond to the reasonable request of its partner.
Qu Jianlei has plenty of these skills in life, as a sedan chair needs people to carry it.
Immortal Sanshi still looked a little indignant, but Immortal Yongheng said magnanimously: We have already said it, let's just let it go.
To be honest, Qu Jianlei had some doubts that Sanshi's resentment might be fake, and he just wanted to curry favor with the big shot.
The current Five Friends Alliance is ultimately a business organization, and cultivating immortals is indeed not just about fighting and killing, but also about the ways of the world.
The meal was a great pleasure for both the host and the guests. Even the two fools, who had always had sad faces, would occasionally smile.
At the end, City Lord Huo mentioned that the Star Palace intended to weaken the isolation formation. He wondered what Lord Qu Ling thought about this?
Not many people in Zhongzhou know about this matter at present. In the future, the news will be appropriately controlled because we are worried that people will flee to Dongsheng.
However, City Lord Huo was originally from the Star Palace, so this kind of news could not be hidden from him.
Being able to talk about this news at this moment does not mean that we treat those present as outsiders.
"How do you see it? I see it with my eyes," Qu Jianlei smiled indifferently and asked again, "Will City Lord Huo support it?"
"It's a bit...confusing," Huo Jiujian also smiled.
His smuggling business is doing well now. Isn't the Star Palace's intention to cut off his source of income?
But if Dongsheng and Zhongzhou are allowed to continue blocking the way, wouldn't Zhongzhou's collapse be even faster over time?
Therefore, he was more concerned about Hongyeling's position. "Then Lord Quling is against it?"
"We don't participate in the discussion," Qu Jianlei replied calmly. "It's really a bummer that others are trying to fan the flames and get us to charge."
Upon hearing this, the seven Yuanyings on the opposite side exchanged glances with each other, and then actually laughed one after another.
Qu Jianlei came here not only to check on the business in Daye City, but also to understand the current situation in Zhongzhou.
In the next few days, he went to several first-tier cities and finally felt something different.
The main urban areas of first-tier cities are generally better, but the tense atmosphere can still be felt to some extent.
According to his understanding, the demons that are currently infiltrating Zhongzhou have a considerable plan in place.
There are very few demons appearing in first-tier cities, and they are usually eliminated quickly.
So much so that even now, although the intensity of the demon's infiltration is increasing, its appearance in first-tier cities is less frequent.
Second-tier cities are relatively better, but third- and fourth-tier cities are much worse.
However, the areas where demons most often appear are in the wilderness or in towns and villages.
He had also heard about some of the villages and towns that were massacred, but there was basically no consensus on the exact number of casualties and the number of people possessed by demons.
What is certain is that anyone who has some means is running to the cities because the towns and villages below are too unsafe.
It is for this reason that the number of victims is not easy to count.
In short, the lower the level of the place, the more severe the panic.
In response to this situation, each first-tier city has a different way of coping, and it is truly “Thirty-six cities in Central China, each is different”.
Qu Jianlei was in Tianquan City and was almost called up because the City Lord's Mansion ordered a patrol of the wilderness, but the patrol team was short of Nascent Souls.
The conscription order emphasized that it could not be refused, but the executor's attitude was acceptable. After all, he was asking for help from a Nascent Soul, so he must be careful about the method.
Qu Jianlei showed the token of Daye City Lord's Mansion, so the other party naturally couldn't force him anymore.
First of all, as brother cities, they must give each other some face. Secondly, many people know that Daye City is relatively stable.
Some people even quietly asked, "I heard there are some mundane weapons that are quite useful. Do you have any?" Price is not an issue!
Qu Jianlei visited five first-tier cities in total, and felt somewhat heavy-hearted.
The situation he saw was indeed not as serious as Jiang Hui said, but... this wave of demons was really difficult to deal with.
When he returned to Liuguang City Manor, he unexpectedly found that Immortal Yongheng and Duan Bowen were there.
The two saw that Master Qu Ling looked unhappy, so they took the initiative to ask what had happened.
Qu Jianlei frowned and said that it was because there was a large-scale infiltration of demons in the wild.
Duan Bowen was a little confused, but the Immortal Yongheng was knowledgeable and guessed what Lord Qu Ling was worried about.
"Are you worried that... the demons are mainly infiltrating uninhabited areas?"
"That's right," Qu Jianlei nodded.
He didn't want the demons to infiltrate the villages and towns, but the appearance of a large number of demons in deserted places was really terrifying when he thought about it carefully.
Duan Bowen didn't quite understand the difference. "Senior Yongheng, wouldn't it be possible to reduce the tragedy by infiltrating uninhabited areas?"
"You are right," Immortal Yongheng frowned and said, "The key to the problem is... the demons love to eat people's popularity!"
Most of the time, the demons will choose densely populated areas to infiltrate, which is driven by their instinct.
If there are too many masters in these places and they cause heavy losses to the demons, they will adjust their targets after receiving feedback.
But no man's land... rarely attracts demons because it has no popularity!
When the Demonic Realm first appeared in the Seven-Colored Swamp of Dongsheng, there was no crowd there, but... there was a weak spot in space!
Duan Bowen thought about this carefully, and his expression changed slightly, "Taking the initiative to infiltrate the no-man's land... is there a superior in charge?"
"Yes," Immortal Yongheng replied with a sad face, "What do you think Lord Qu Ling is worried about?"
Duan Bowen looked at Qu Jianlei and asked in astonishment, "Are you worried about... a demon that has left its body?"
He really realized the seriousness of the problem, so much so that his voice trembled slightly.
"Alas," Qu Jianlei sighed helplessly, "One or two out-of-body experiences would be fine, but the question is...how many are there?"
He had previously analyzed that there might be the possibility of out-of-body experience among the demons, but he didn't pay much attention to it at that time.
He was really worried about the demon that had left his body.
It was just a matter of leaving the body, as if he had never killed anyone before! So at that time, he just sighed "lives were destroyed".
But now, not only has this speculation become more and more confirmed, but he also suddenly realizes that there may be more than one or two out-of-body demons.
This is... really confusing.
"One or two is enough?" Duan Bowen and Immortal Yongheng heard this and their eyes widened. "Are you talking about the Great Master Chu?"
Lord Qu Ling, would you like to think about what kind of vicious words you said?
After a pause, Immortal Yongheng smiled bitterly, "It turns out that the upper limit I thought was just the threshold of other people's homes..."
Duan Bowen said solemnly, "Master Qu Ling, is Hongye Ling still in need of servants? My ancestors are also from Dongsheng!"
"Don't joke around," Qu Jianlei frowned, "You should tell the Star Palace and get in touch with the upper realm more often."
The team has indeed killed quite a few out-of-body aliens, but seriously, they have tried their best to deal with every one of them.
How many times have they walked on a tightrope, on the brink of life and death?
How many times have those battle plans that were formulated in advance and seemed almost perfect encountered accidents?
Qu Jianlei believes that this has nothing to do with his physical condition...
To be honest, if they lacked just a little bit of luck, this small team would have been wiped out countless times.
The Heavenly Demons are especially notoriously difficult to deal with. Without destroying the entire Cangwu, it would be difficult for a team to deal with a Heavenly Demon that has left its body.
The "one or two" that Qu Jianlei mentioned was the upper limit, not the lower limit! If there were really three, he would definitely lead the team to run away without saying a word!
Now, it is very necessary to contact the upper realm. Although it is said that it may be of no use, it is better to contact than not to contact.
"Contact the upper realm?" A figure flashed and Huo Jiujian appeared. "What happened?"
He had just arrived, and after listening to their analysis, his face became heavy.
After a long time, he sighed and spoke with difficulty.
"Ever since we built the Dongsheng Sealing Array last time, I haven't heard of any other responses from the upper realm."
