After listening to Qu Jianlei's words, Jin Ge Zhenxian thought for a moment and replied in a deep voice, "We'll have to wait a little longer."
"I'm currently refining that treasure and it's at a critical juncture."
Qu Jianlei didn't doubt his strength, but he was still a little surprised when he heard it, "So fast?"
It takes sixty years to refine the spirit of the cave. No matter how powerful the magic master is, it cannot be refined in such a short time, right?
"It's just a rough refining for the first time," Jin Ge Zhenxian replied, "and I'll try to find out if there's anything that needs repairing."
"Oh," Qu Jianlei nodded, "Do you need my help, for example... Black Horse Tower?"
"That tower won't work," Jin Ge Zhenxian shook his head without hesitation, "Not only is the space small, but the key is that it's only at the Nascent Soul level."
He really didn't care about the Black Horse Tower, which others valued very much.
Then he thought for a moment, "Forget this magical power of time... it's not necessary, just wait another half a month."
Qu Jianlei was delighted when he heard this, "In half a month, we can go to the upper realm?"
"Going to the upper realm is not as difficult as you think," the clone of the Master of Magic replied nonchalantly, "It's just like teleporting."
"Then let's wait for half a month," Qu Jianlei felt that there shouldn't be any major accidents in this period of time.
However, only three days later, news came from the Star Palace again.
The higher realms believed that the possibility of Cangwu being fully invaded by the demons had dropped to an extremely low level.
The news indicated that Cangwu had indeed been the focus of the demons before.
During that time, the higher realms already knew about the demonic situation and were paying close attention to it, but they were not sure of the demon's true intentions.
Because of this uncertainty, the upper realm planned to observe for a period of time. Unexpectedly, the demons suffered multiple defeats and retreated on their own initiative.
As for the active demonic energy in Zhongzhou now, it is not because the demons want to launch a large-scale attack, but because they have lost their leader.
This statement sounds reasonable: the actions of guerrillas are indeed difficult to predict.
Moreover, since the judgment comes from the upper realm, it should be quite credible.
Many cultivators were even a little excited that the upper realm finally remembered Cangwu.
It has been so many years, and the higher-ups have almost ignored our world. When the tiger people invaded, they only sent two Nascent Souls to set up a large formation.
However, more people expressed doubts. What unexpected events had occurred in the upper realm? Wasn’t this surprise too sudden?
Qu Jianlei also received the news, and his first reaction was: Is there any other news from the upper realm?
Unfortunately, however, there is no other news...
As expected, he is still the same! Qu Jianlei ignored him and told Jing Yuexin not to stop researching the demon.
In fact, researchers also believe that the possibility of a full-scale invasion by demons has decreased, but there are still many demons now.
At the same time, the Star Palace began to call on the thirty-six cities in Zhongzhou to wipe out the demons with all their might, and at the same time promoted it to all states.
In the past, human cultivators were in a defensive stage, but now they have to start counterattacking.
The demons have occupied a large area in Cangwu. If the demonic energy is not eliminated, how will the human race survive in the future?
If you don't take the initiative, these evil spirits will never disappear on their own.
On the contrary, demonic energy will grow stronger by eroding other creatures, and practitioners are the best nutrients for it.
Most practitioners are well aware of this and are willing to take the initiative.
Of course, there are also some people who feel that it is none of their business and are not very proactive. After all, clearing out the evil spirit is extremely dangerous and costly.
It is not surprising that there are always some people who think they are smart at all times.
At this time, the role of the Star Hall is reflected. It urges the thirty-six cities not to relax and to establish a reward and punishment system.
In terms of rewards, in addition to the real estate after the evil spirit is cleared, those with outstanding performance will also be rewarded with relevant training and living resources.
There is no need to explain much about the punishment. In front of the public enemy of humanity, if you want to pretend to obey or work without putting in effort... the consequences can be imagined.
The counterattack was launched vigorously, and the Star Hall, as the advocate, also invested a lot of manpower and material resources.
The Four Sacred Mountains also made some investments, but the efforts were smaller than those of the First Palace.
The manpower and material resources withdrawn from the Star Palace even affected the research project on the Demon Circle Array.
Jing Yuexin didn't care much about this. The threat from the demon had greatly decreased, so it was normal to relax on the project research, as long as she didn't give up.
Zi Jiuxian, who used to be a professor, even said that research results are often achieved through hard work rather than accumulation.
During this series of major actions, the team led by Immortal Ji Ken finally withdrew from the Forgotten Peninsula.
There were some casualties among the team members, and some were missing - Master Peng from the Book Pavilion is still missing.
But at the same time, the team also gained a lot. In addition to discovering many anomalies, they also obtained many treasures.
It is said that he obtained two rules alone, and the origin... seems to be three or four.
It’s just that the relevant news has been blocked by Jiken, and some of the information is not particularly certain.
After Ji Ken left the forbidden area, he went to the headquarters of the Star Palace, but most of the manpower was still deployed in the Forgotten Peninsula.
Not only the people he brought, but also Bu Hu's team were arranged in this way.
In short, he believes that vigilance against the Forgotten Peninsula cannot be relaxed, and he is obviously worried about more variables.
But Ji Ken did not explain to others what he was worried about.
After visiting the Star Palace, he did not return to the Forgotten Peninsula, but came to Liuguang City.
The Fourth Master and Youyou are not interested in people from the upper realm, but people like Jiken Zhenxian are at least there to help deal with the forbidden area issues.
In addition, the Immortal Bu Hu was accompanying them, so they allowed him to borrow the teleportation array.
Ji Ken, along with two members of his team and Bu Xianzi, a group of four appeared at Hongye Ridge.
At this time, Jing Yuexin was being harassed by Jiang Hui - the Xingchen Palace hoped that Hongyeling could send people to clear out the evil spirit.
Jing Yuexin was very resistant to this request, as the team had already done enough.
But Master Jiang was extremely persistent: Hongyeling was recognized as the nemesis of the demons, and it would be unreasonable not to take action at this time.
Jiang Hui said that there is no need for you to take any action, just standing behind everyone can give people a lot of confidence.
At this time, the immortal Ji Ken came to visit, and Jing Yuexin was happy to leave Jiang Hui behind, so she came out to receive him.
However, Immortal Ji Ken expressed that he hoped to meet Lord Qu Ling because he also brought the wishes of the Great Venerable.
Jing Yuexin was not very awed by the idea of leaving the body, but she did not have the confidence of her own boss after all.
She also didn't want others to think that all the people in Hongyeling were unruly, so she said that Lord Quling was currently in seclusion.
Four days later, Qu Jianlei came out of retreat and received the four visiting True Immortals.
As soon as they met, Immortal Ji Ken said without disguising, "I have already investigated the matter of Lord Qu Ling cutting off the small world!"
"Oh," Qu Jianlei nodded calmly, and glanced at Immortal Bu Hu again, "You continue."
"It has nothing to do with Fairy Bu," True Immortal Ji Ken said solemnly, "Such obvious traces would be hard not to notice."
He has the will of the Great One in him, how could he not sense it?
"I was also entrusted by someone," Qu Jianlei replied calmly, "You should be clear about the cause and effect."
"Well," Immortal Ji Ken nodded, "I don't deny cause and effect, but the one who did it... was indeed Daoist's subordinate."
"It's boring to talk about this," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "If you have the guts, go find the real owner. He has agreed to take responsibility for all the consequences."
"That person..." Ji Ken pursed his lips, obviously having a headache about this topic.
Then he coughed lightly and said, "Someone will naturally ask about that person's situation, but it is too much for you, Master Qu Ling, to intervene."
"Whether it is excessive or not is not your decision," Qu Jianlei said slowly. It's that damn bureaucratic atmosphere again. Is it not over yet?
"How about I invite someone over so you can talk to him yourself?"
"That's not what I meant," Ji Ken shook his head decisively. He didn't want to face off against an existence that could rival the out-of-body experience.
"What I mean is, leaving that person aside, does Lord Qu Ling think that there is no fault at all?"
Putting aside the facts? Qu Jianlei nodded and answered without waiting for the answer, "Yes, I don't think I have done anything wrong."
Ji Ken was choked. He knew that this person was very unruly, but he was still a little surprised that he was so unruly.
But it doesn’t matter. “No matter what, Lord Qu Ling’s actions have caused considerable damage to the assets of the upper world.”
"What you think is your business," Qu Jianlei didn't argue with him, "Can we leave now?"
"Wait a moment..." Immortal Ji Ken's aura changed and he spoke in a low voice.
"The Immortal Master wants to know how you killed the Chu-Body Snake. There is a reward!"
Just a mere "reward"? Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at him, "Who said I killed the Chu-Body Silkworm?"
Immortal Ji Ken answered without hesitation, "The Great Honored One said so!"
"Then why are you asking me?" Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes, "The Great Master must know how he was killed."
What you said... Immortal Ji Ken was choked. If the Immortal Lord knew, would he still need to ask you?
But he didn't dare to talk nonsense and say that the Great Venerable was not powerful enough.
He could only grit his teeth and speak expressionlessly, "Master Qu Ling, what exactly do you want?"
Qu Jianlei frowned, "I want you to leave and don't bother me!"
He thought it was really weird that he came to me and asked me what I wanted.
"You..." Immortal Ji Ken narrowed his eyes - obviously, it was another extremely bureaucratic move.
But in the end he held back, "I heard from Senior Sister Bu that Master Qu Ling is interested in going to the upper realm?"
Having said this, he paused again. This subconscious behavior of keeping people on suspense had almost become his instinct.
Qu Jianlei looked at him calmly and said, "Everyone wants to go to the upper realm, but we always go out as a team."
He will not deny his needs, which exist objectively. Hiding them will only make people laugh at him.
But please, don't brag. If I go to the upper realm, I will definitely not go alone.
The other party should have the ability to lead people to the upper realm, but with so many people... is it realistic?
