"The true meaning of destiny? Of course it exists!" Han Li answered without hesitation, "It's just that it's very difficult to preserve."
“Holy crap…” True Venerable Riding Dog grinned, “I’m starting to suspect that I’ve cultivated a fake system.”
Are the cultivation systems of the two realms really that different?
The withered Venerable hesitated for a moment, then asked again, "Is the true meaning of creation also of great use to him?"
Han Li remained silent, as did the other five True Venerables. After a long while, True Venerable Han Wei replied, "He is only five hundred years old!"
This is something that the True Master Riding the Dog has already figured out, so it doesn't count as a leak.
The real thing is the rich, primordial energy that has been accumulating in the Taiyuan Sea for over a year, which cannot be mentioned.
"Oh my god..." Upon hearing this, the withered True Venerable couldn't help but sigh.
After a long silence, he spoke again, "Everyone, let's prepare more of the true meaning and rules of creation. Is there anything else we need to prepare?"
Han Li hesitated for a moment, then finally stated, "The true meaning of birth and death..."
Qu Zhenzun was very clear about the life and death supernatural power in his right eye, and originally did not want to reveal his Daoist partner's trump card.
But then I thought, this is a rare opportunity to get a good deal, so it would be a waste not to take advantage of it.
However, he froze as soon as he said it, "Birth and death... isn't that just tribulation?"
"Birth and death?" Even the Ten True Venerables of the Star Realm were stunned upon hearing this.
After a while, a True Venerable sighed softly, "True Venerable cultivation, life and death... If he is not the rightful master, I will cripple my own cultivation!"
True Venerables are not incapable of controlling life and death; although it is difficult to comprehend, the cultivation world is never short of unparalleled geniuses.
However, coupled with the fact that he controls creation and is only a five-hundred-year-old True Venerable... what kind of old monster is this reincarnation?
Riding Dog True Venerable sighed softly, "That's not all, this one is... a master of the divine power of time!"
He learned of this news from the relict community.
Although he didn't deliberately inquire, he still needed to investigate the cause and effect of the incident, and that mere small realm couldn't withstand a sweep of his divine sense!
He originally didn't want to reveal someone's privacy, but now that he's saying it, he has his reasons: "I don't want people to underestimate this person."
"And there are time rules..." Everyone fell silent again. What kind of freak is this?
After a while, Kunxiu Zhenzun cautiously asked, "Then this... the true meaning of destiny?"
"Let's not talk about it anymore," True Venerable Riding Dog couldn't help but say, "I suddenly feel that some losses were really just asking for trouble!"
If he had known that the other party was such a bizarre and extremely strange being, he should have knelt down when he made his entrance!
Why ride the Kui Niu? It caused our family to lose a guardian beast of the mountain for nothing!
"The true meaning of fate... is not necessarily true," Han Li replied uncertainly, as he genuinely did not know that the Dao Stele contained the character "fate".
All he knew was that Qu Zhenzun's cave contained powerful trump cards, particularly adept at defending against soul attacks...
Hearing this, Xiaoyou couldn't help but give him a deep look, "You know a lot about him."
"So-so," Han Li said casually. "This person is particularly good at hiding his abilities; I only know a little about him."
Upon hearing this, even the withered True Venerable couldn't stand it anymore, "So he... you still don't have all the information?"
No one answered the question; even Han Li remained silent.
However, silence speaks louder than words at this moment. Indeed, no one acknowledges the news, but... no one refutes it either, right?
The feeling within it is something that even the withered True Venerable can understand, let alone the withered True Venerable.
One of the True Venerables sighed softly, "No wonder there are so many True Venerables accompanying such a prodigy."
However, after he said that, more than one person rolled their eyes at him.
There are some details that are inconvenient to disclose, otherwise...
Qu Jianlei thought for five whole days before he came to his senses, then smiled and said, "Thank you all for your trouble."
Everyone then came to their senses, and the Dog-Riding True Venerable was the first to ask, "How was it?"
Qu Jianlei's face showed a slight sign of fatigue. "I've had a bit of inspiration, but I still need to consider it."
“No rush,” the withered Venerable said solemnly, “Let’s rest for a while first.”
"No need," Qu Jianlei shook his head. "I have to go back. There's still a lot to do back home."
"Leaving?" The True Venerables opposite were all taken aback. "Wasn't...wasn't we supposed to be discussing countermeasures?"
So this "meeting gift" really is just that—a meeting gift?
"I'm busy," Qu Jianlei replied casually. "If you're not satisfied, I can return the gifts."
The other party had actually already given him some ideas for free, but it didn't matter; he could just consider it mutual support among human cultivators.
The truth is, if he really returned the gift, it would greatly reduce the karmic consequences, and everyone knows that.
"What are you saying?" True Venerable Riding Dog's face darkened. "How can you take back something that's been given away?"
"We are a little anxious, after all, this matter is urgent, isn't it?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head and said calmly, "It's still early."
A strange glint flashed in the eyes of the withered True Venerable. "Need any help?"
Even the Star Realm has been busy with this matter for tens of thousands of years and has seen too many faces.
Some people make promises they can keep, but once they leave, they never look back.
Although there are causes and effects involved, it is a wise choice to withdraw in time when faced with an unsolvable or even dangerous situation.
The accumulation of cause and effect is somewhat similar to the investment of funds. If there are too many sunk costs, it is not worthwhile, and timely stop loss is the best policy.
“No need,” Han Li stated very decisively.
What a joke! Not easily revealing one's own territory is the awareness that cultivators should have.
Just like the True Venerable of Lime, who has already established himself in Houde, even his Azure Dragon companion has left his body.
But who knows which realm he comes from?
Moreover, even the Astral Plane is now in such a state of decline. If the world were to collapse uncontrollably, these people... would they need something to strive for?
Therefore, under no circumstances could he reveal the origins of his side.
“I understand your concerns, fellow Daoist,” said the withered True Venerable, “No one wants their own territory to be attacked by outsiders.”
"But we'd like to know, what kind of help does that... fellow Daoist need?"
"If you want to contribute money or effort, just say so. Although you have a great king, sometimes you also need someone to cheer you on."
"Although Lianxing has declined, it can still muster a dozen or so powerful and daring Grand Venerables!"
A powerful and daring Grandmaster... and in double digits! Han Li was momentarily dazed: Wouldn't Bai Qiao be driven crazy with headaches?
If it really comes to that, it won't just be a matter of a mountain peak, but a continuous mountain range, or even a mountain system!
He shook his head, dismissing the thought. "He really has a lot on his plate. You don't think the True Venerable is idle, do you?"
However, the withered Venerable nodded without hesitation, "I don't know much about others, but I am really free."
His mission was to do everything in his power to prevent the collapse of the heavens, and his specific responsibility was to find someone who could save the heavens from collapse.
Previous administrations were somewhat busy, but during his term, he had almost nothing to do.
However, his duties did not allow him to worry about anything else; he only knew what the True Venerable of Lianxing was usually busy with.
So he asked, "You haven't encountered the collapse of the heavens either, so as True Venerables, do you have so much to do?"
“A True Venerable is much busier than a True Immortal,” Qu Jianlei replied solemnly. “A True Immortal is only busy for a short period of time, but a True Venerable’s busyness… is hard to describe!”
Upon hearing this, the withered Venerable couldn't help but ask again, "Will your return this time take a relatively long time?"
Qu Jianlei didn't want to say much, but since he had accepted the gift, he had to give some reason.
So he replied in a deep voice, "Two of my friends are about to advance in rank and need a protector. They won't be back for at least a hundred or eighty years."
"Guardian... this should be an attempt to break through to the outer body," the withered True Venerable nodded slightly, "going any higher or lower is not appropriate."
He felt he could try again. "Two? Fellow Daoist, you certainly have a wide circle of friends. You must need some True Venerables to help you, right?"
"No need," Qu Jianlei refused decisively, and he said it very bluntly, "If your people come, the people of our realm will gossip."
The withered Venerable also understood that this was not a simple matter of gossip; the other party was talking about a hidden danger.
He felt a little embarrassed, "But if you just leave like this, it will also create hidden dangers for Lianxing!"
"What you're saying..." Qu Jianlei immediately objected, his face filled with disbelief. "Who would come here?"
“Someone really is coming,” Kunxiu Zhenzun interjected from the side, “The apocalypse is a place to make a fortune, which has caused a lot of chaos.”
As a native of Lianxing, she had a lot to say about this kind of thing, "especially the elderly True Venerable who instructed people to cause trouble."
Qu Jianlei was originally indignant, but upon hearing these words, he suddenly felt a sense of shared hatred.
He smiled and nodded. "Alright, I swear I won't reveal anything about the Star Realm?"
At this moment, he felt no shame whatsoever. This damn place, it's like nobody wants to come here!
Those who are trying to take advantage of the chaos must be the old and powerful leader's men.
The logic is there, and Nascent Soul cultivators wouldn't dare to offend them—even the most decaying world is not something they can covet.
Ordinary True Venerables don't need to get themselves into trouble, not to mention the soul-crushing erosion, the karmic consequences alone are not insignificant.
Only a True Venerable who is nearing the end of his lifespan, upon hearing of the situation here, would send someone to risk his life to retrieve chestnuts from the fire.
Qu Jianlei really despises this kind of person, so making a vow is nothing.
But how could the withered Venerable dare to make him swear an oath? Those who understand the gravity of this matter know the significance of it!
"How about this, have several True Venerables from the Lianxing Sect go there and swear not to leak any information about your side? What do you think?"
Qu Jianlei frowned upon hearing this, "Why are you doing this? I have my reasons for this."
“We’ve suffered this kind of loss far too many times,” the withered Venerable smiled helplessly, his laughter barely moving his facial muscles.
"While the cause and effect are significant, the risks are even greater... As long as you're human, you'll always have to make choices, don't you think?"
Qu Jianlei was speechless. He could understand the other person's feelings, but Houde was already quite lively.
However, having two True Venerables as bodyguards is also a very cool thing.
The promise he made to Lianxing Realm could lead to his death if he wasn't careful; the situation he faced was extremely dangerous.
Therefore, having two bodyguards isn't considered a disservice to the other party.
After thinking it over, he still couldn't make a decision, so he simply looked at Han Li and said, "You go and talk to him."
