Chapter 2649 Whose problem is it?
The True Venerables of Lianxing came up with a rotation system, but Qu Jianlei did not agree with it.
He stated very directly that while you may be worried about the impact on yourselves, those who cultivate virtue will be even more concerned about the impact on their realms!
An ominous aura can be contagious; this is a matter of metaphysics, but Qu Jianlei believes that the vast majority of people in the Houde Realm would think so.
It's fine for Lianxing's True Venerable to come and go briefly, but if he stays in Houde for a long time, it's no wonder that it will cause widespread controversy.
Qu Zhenzun currently enjoys a high reputation within the realm, and he has no intention of ruining his reputation.
However, his reaction was "not very damaging, but extremely insulting" to Liu Zhenzun.
However, they also had to admit that this was the truth; when the realm was in danger, even cultivators were discriminated against.
Qu Jianlei suggested that they be stationed near the entrance of the passage, and he would call upon them if needed.
But in fact, he had already made up his mind that he would never ask these people for help unless absolutely necessary.
He originally allowed the other party to come along, partly because he couldn't refuse, and partly because of his vanity and desire to show off.
But given this situation, the other party can simply wait in the void.
Even if he encountered any trouble, Qu Jianlei didn't want to ask these six people for help—as a virtuous cultivator, he couldn't bear the shame.
Of course, if the other party feels it's not appropriate, they can leave on their own, and he won't force them.
For Lianxing Zhenzun, this request was rather humiliating—having traveled thousands of miles to get here, only to be turned away at the door?
Fortunately, Han Wei said quietly, "Waiting outside the boundary is not just you from the Lianxing Realm... Houde has always been like this."
Thus, Qu Jianlei and his group of four finally managed to ditch them and enter the realm.
Even the True Venerables of Lianxing had no choice but to set up camp at the entrance of the passage, resulting in five camps.
The other four camps were naturally curious and came to test the waters, but these six ignored them.
They were already upset enough with what they were going through at home and what they were experiencing now; they really didn't want to receive any more strange looks from them.
However, after everyone finished setting up camp and met up, they realized that simply covering it up wasn't appropriate.
It's not that they want to ask others for help—they've already tried many things around the world, but to little avail.
Now that we have discovered a few suspected true masters, there is no need to rush into treatment without proper research.
The key issue is that they don't know much about this True Venerable One and the entire Houde, so it's very necessary for them to learn more about the situation.
As expected, when they revealed their identities as "from the Lianxing Realm," the expressions of the Merchant Alliance cultivators immediately became strange.
Baiyou Business Alliance started out in intelligence work, and it has many true shareholders from all walks of life. I have indeed heard of Lianxing's affairs.
Fortunately, such mysterious matters are considered taboo by many powerful beings—even Xiaoyou's True Lord Master is unwilling to talk about them.
Therefore, Baiyou Business Alliance only knew that Lianxing seemed to be on a downward trend and should not be approached, but did not know much about the specific situation.
However, when the cultivators from the Merchant Alliance wanted to know more—such as why the other party had come here—the cultivator from Lianxing refused to say more.
The cultivators of the myriad things, the highest good, and the realm of mountains and rivers also could not find out any more.
As time went by, even the Star Cultivators finally managed to figure out the general information about a few True Venerables.
Among the various rumors, there was no information about the two Divine Lords, but other news about Qu Zhenzun was quite explosive.
Especially the well-known Taiyuan Sea Forum.
He was initially captured by the True Lord, yet he managed to escape and return on his own; after a year and a half of debates, no one dared to challenge his authority…
However, the most important thing is Qu Zhenzun's topic of discussion: a new path to the body!
The True Venerables of the Stars came from afar and stayed at the entrance of the passage, seemingly indifferent to everything. It would be impossible to say that they were not angry.
But after learning this news, all the resentment vanished.
There's no doubt about it; the one with the ability to turn the tide is undoubtedly this person, and it can only be this person!
To open up new paths for leaving the body... there is still a sliver of possibility for the Great Lord, but at that time, it will be limited to the Nascent Soul stage!
Only someone of such extraordinary talent could possibly save Lian Xing from his tragic fate...
Qu Jianlei returned to Houde and first went to Jiuyou Island to see Duogan, and felt that everything was normal.
After three days, they finally emerged from Jiuyou Island, where a small ball of light appeared.
Then a lazy voice came, "Qu Zhenzun, long time no see!"
"I have met the boundary envoy," Qu Jianlei said, somewhat speechless. "Do you have nothing better to do than stare at me all day?"
Legend has it that the Celestial Mirror is extremely aloof and difficult to communicate with, but now... what happened to its reserved demeanor?
“You don’t need to criticize me,” the Envoy of the Realm read his mind. “You’ve really done something big this time. Baiqiao is on his way.”
“I have other things to do,” Qu Jianlei said, sounding a little impatient.
He hadn't seen Jing Yuexin for over four years and didn't know how her preparations were going. "I'll go find her myself later!"
After saying that, he tried to struggle, but found that he was not restrained by the Realm Envoy, so he left in a flash.
Han Li and Jin Ge followed closely behind, while only Qing Kong was trapped.
He looked at the ball of light with a hint of helplessness. "Lord Envoy, I am the legitimate and upright Protector Lingyun!"
"Who told you to be the only one who's reasonable?" the Envoy said leisurely. "I don't want to offend those three either."
"The main issue is that your return this time has been somewhat strange, and the sect wants to understand the situation fully..."
When Qu Jianlei arrived at Tianli Zhenzun's place, Jing Yuexin was in seclusion.
According to Tianli's alter ego, she is currently trying out different periods of seclusion to adjust her perception.
Qu Jianlei waited for half a month, and did not perform divination to allow her to adjust, so as not to disturb her state.
When Jing Yuexin emerged from seclusion and saw him return, she was naturally overjoyed, which needs no further explanation.
After Qu Jianlei performed the divination, he found that she was not significantly abnormal, and the probability of success had increased slightly, almost negligible.
He was somewhat dissatisfied with this, feeling that her progress in increasing the probability was even worse than that of Dorgon, so he started calculating again.
He was truly going all out against Jing Yuexin, and after a while, even Han Li couldn't stand it anymore.
"After one divination, you should at least rest for five or six days, right? Why only three days?"
"It's just a breakthrough in the body's ability to manifest. I know what I'm doing," Qu Jianlei replied calmly. "Peaceful times are rare, so we must make the most of them."
Two and a half months passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Han Li couldn't help but say again: If you continue like this, be careful not to damage your foundation.
"Effort will pay off," Qu Jianlei replied nonchalantly. He had indeed worked hard during this period and the results were acceptable.
"Enough, I can't stand it anymore," a woman's voice rang out leisurely. "What is the ultimate fire? What is nirvana?"
Upon hearing this, Qu Jianlei's spirits immediately lifted. "Please enlighten me, Your Majesty!"
"From your perspective, the ultimate state of everything is nothingness, and Nirvana is the reconstruction within nothingness!"
"Without infinitely approaching nothingness, how can there be rebirth?"
Qu Jianlei's eyes lit up immediately. "Does the Great Lord mean... the void?"
The woman's voice replied calmly, "She experienced the Void, but she was too well protected, so she doesn't have a deep impression of it!"
"No rainbow without rain. Of course, this is just my opinion, and you can consider it."
She has experienced too many philosophical discussions and has indeed gained extraordinary insight in some areas.
Even so, she didn't dare give an absolutely definite answer. The Nascent Soul breaking through to the Out-of-Body stage was no joke.
"Hmm? Interesting!" Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment, then slowly nodded. "Yes, it's my problem."
He had always been very considerate of his teammates, but now it seems he went a bit too far.
Jing Yuexin spent a considerable amount of time in the void; her exploration from the Empire to Cangwu alone took several decades.
However, although the team encountered many unexpected events during the trip, overall they did not feel too much danger.
This situation also exists in Dorgon, but he did not follow the path of Nirvana, so it is not considered a weakness.
Thinking about this, Qu Jianlei had to admit that he had been too protective of his team members, which had hindered their growth.
However, there's nothing that can be done about this; it's a matter of life and death that can be decided in an instant, and he really... can't accurately grasp it.
He shared his insights with Han Li, asking for her help in analyzing whether he needed to adjust his strategy.
He couldn't help it; he was worried that his concern might cloud his judgment.
Han Li did not answer immediately. After a moment of contemplation, he took out his abacus and cast a divination.
The divination results indicate that if Jing Yuexin can spend some time in the void, she can indeed increase her chances of leaving her body.
Han Li suggested going to the starry sky outside the Cangwu Realm, where there is still a sealing formation and no miscellaneous cultivators to disturb them.
Getting to Cangwu is easy; you can simply use the teleportation system that was set up beforehand.
Upon arrival, Jing Yuexin began to perceive and hone her skills in the void.
For Nascent Soul cultivators, the void is not a friendly place; they cannot stay there for long and need to rest and recuperate after a period of training.
This balance is something Jing Yuexin needs to grasp herself, since she also needs to perceive the mysteries of the void at the same time.
Qu Jianlei specially built a bewitching array for her to prevent others from noticing, and left a clone behind to protect her and maintain the array.
As for the degree of refinement, that's something Jing Yuexin needs to judge and grasp herself.
In the past, Qu Jianlei would most likely have taken care of everything himself, but now he realizes that excessive protection is not advisable.
After all, it was Jing Yuexin herself who was trying to advance to the next level. As the person involved, it might be better to trust your intuition.
He observed for more than ten days and found that everything was normal, and the other party was gradually adapting to this operation.
Only then did he have time to come to Cangwu to see how the realm was developing.
The fifth-order spiritual vein is currently being upgraded and will be completed in about fifty years, followed by another one or two hundred years to consolidate it.
During this process, Ling Yun not only contributed manpower and effort, but also provided a lot of relevant materials and treasures.
Although Cangwu is a middle-thousand world, it is not very large. Theoretically, it can only accommodate one fifth-order spiritual vein at most.
The key is that in the process of creating a spiritual vein, the overall impact on the realm must be fully considered, and there are many details that need to be paid attention to.
