Chapter 2810 Everyone's Working Hard
"What happened to Young Friend Qu's cave dwelling?" Lord Boping asked in astonishment. "Is there a problem?"
Luo Fu had already put on a formidable aura—if any powerful lord wanted to sense his junior brother's cave dwelling, he would have to get past her first.
“It’s not a cave,” the young woman said leisurely again. “He has a child who has a minor problem, but it’s nothing serious.”
"Qu Zhenzun's little friend?" Upon hearing this, everyone was secretly amazed. What was all this about?
"Senior knows a lot," Bo Ping Zhenjun breathed a sigh of relief, as long as it didn't affect the important matters.
However, something that could leave Qu Zhenzun in such a predicament was clearly not insignificant. "Do you need help?"
"It depends on his own wishes," the young woman said, without adding anything further.
Qu Jianlei's expression changed because he suddenly realized that the big-headed butterfly in his sea of consciousness... was gone!
To be honest, he hadn't contacted Xiaohu at all in the past year or so.
Because during this period, the various anomalies he encountered were all at the level of cultivation, so the small lake was basically useless.
Crucially, he was also well aware that the existence of higher dimensions was extremely unfriendly to digital life—as had been proven before.
Given that, he naturally had no need to take unnecessary risks.
But just now, when he was about to arrange for Xiaohu to make some overall arrangements, he suddenly discovered that he couldn't contact her!
He was really worried now, and went straight into the cave to activate many warships... Are you fucking alright?
The young lady had been in contact with Qu Jianlei for so long that she knew about this strange creature.
However, since Xiao Qu was so precious and so weak, she couldn't be bothered to pay much attention to her.
The mighty Taiyuan Sea doesn't even have the interest to many True Lords, let alone such a tiny one.
It's already extremely rare that she can even offer an explanation now.
Qu Jianlei simultaneously activated three warships: a company-level, a battalion-level, and a regimental-level vessel.
Fortunately, on the fastest-starting ship, a stick figure appeared on the screen: "Boss, how did things go?"
"Yes, everything went very smoothly," Qu Jianlei said, relieved. "What's going on with you? You didn't even say hello?"
"I almost collapsed!" The big-headed butterfly turned slightly. "That high-dimensional aura was just too dangerous..."
“At that time, I couldn’t possibly interfere with your important business by asking you for help.”
"Since I can't afford to offend you, I'll just have to hide. As long as your cave isn't destroyed, that's fine."
"Then why don't you leave a comment too?" Qu Jianlei said irritably.
But complaining was just one sentence; what he was more concerned about was, "What poses a greater threat to you?"
“They’re both big,” the big-headed butterfly slowly turned around, “but which one is bigger… I’m just a piece of data!”
The strengths and weaknesses of the small lake are indeed very distinct.
In terms of exhaustive calculation, it can rival even a True Monarch, but when it comes to the perception of the mystical realm, it falls short even of a Nascent Soul cultivator.
“Then I’ll simulate it,” Qu Jianlei said, showing absolute patience. “Take your time comparing, don’t worry, it’s not dangerous!”
At the same time, within the Middle Thousand Worlds, Qu Zhenzun's figure began to solidify once more.
"Sorry for the last-minute change. We've dealt with it. Shall we try another round of the time element?"
Bo Ping Zhenjun really didn't hide anything, "How is your little friend?"
"It?" Qu Jianlei paused for a moment, then laughed. "Miss, you're so nosy. It was badly injured by the higher dimension, but it's alright."
Bo Ping Zhenjun solemnly stated, "We have also discussed it and decided that it is not advisable to linger here for too long!"
"I support it!" Qu Jianlei nodded. "Let's set a timeframe... a year?"
"About three...two years," Bo Ping hesitated for a moment before saying, "Thank you, young friend Qu, but everyone has their own requests!"
He was even more anxious than Qu Zhenzun, but there really was... no way to help!
The team that saved the day was already very large, with more than one Grand Duke observing from the sidelines, but who among them didn't come with their own selfish motives?
If we only consider Lianxing's needs, then it's not just a matter of whether or not one knows how to conduct oneself; the entire team could potentially disintegrate!
"About a year and a half," Qu Jianlei decided. "If there are any gains, great; if not, the team won't stop waiting!"
"We can wait for our teammates, but... will the journey stop and wait for you?"
“That’s right,” the Möbius strip was the first to agree. “Whoever is qualified to join the team is because they are good enough!”
"If you've fallen behind, you can't blame anyone else. You should look for the reasons within yourself... The Great Dao is ruthless!"
This may sound cold, but it is the true and correct thing to do for cultivators—if you are given a chance and can't keep up, who can you blame?
However, even though that's what they say, who wouldn't feel uneasy after hearing that?
Even Han Li and Xiao You are both recognized as the pride of heaven, but please look around and see who they are.
Is Jing Yuexin really bad? Is Luo Fu really bad? Or is it... Wen Shi or the Great Witch really bad?
No one objects to this statement, but it's true that many people feel a bit pressured by it.
Han Li glanced at Xiao You and secretly sent her a divine sense message, "Join forces?"
“I possess the true meaning of creation,” Xiaoyou replied quietly. “What do you have?”
“Then forget it,” the handsome young man said expressionlessly, showing no sign of using his divine sense. “I only have the identity of a Daoist partner.”
Xiao You remained silent for a while before saying, "Count me in!"
“I can agree to that,” Han Li glanced around, his expression calm. “As long as you can believe me.”
“There will definitely be a process,” Xiaoyou replied without hesitation. “Cause and effect may not apply to you.”
This sounds like flattery, but it also reveals a strong sense of distrust.
"Fine, never mind," Han Li ignored her and looked at the Great Shaman. "Does the Great Lord also intend to observe?"
"Why not?" The high shaman looked at him strangely. "I'm just observing, it won't bother me, will it?"
"Don't give me that," Xiao You continued to whisper to Han Li, "I'm not very good at getting things done, but when it comes to doing bad things..."
Leaving aside the various calculations, the group left the Middle Thousand Worlds and once again faced the Silent Zone.
What Qu Jianlei couldn't let go of the most was still the small lake. "Are you sure the time element has the biggest impact?"
“Not entirely sure,” the big-headed butterfly said, turning slowly. “I’ll hold out for a while this time, remember to protect me.”
"What nonsense are you spouting?" Qu Jianlei snorted. "However, I also have a need for the time element, so remember to communicate in a timely manner."
“No problem… I was afraid of bothering you before,” the big-headed butterfly said, spinning around happily.
But then it paused slightly, "It needs the element of time... Boss, your Time Divine Power is about to reach the second level?"
"What nonsense is this?" Qu Jianlei shook his head, both amused and exasperated. "Even if there really is a second layer, isn't it just the passage of time?"
"Perhaps... time has stopped?" the big-headed butterfly murmured. "Right?"
"You really think highly of me!" Qu Jianlei could only smile wryly. "So the concept of the technology side is quite imaginative."
“The fact that you didn’t deny it means I guessed right,” Big-Headed Butterfly continued spinning. “Boss, you can do it!”
"I feel like you've gone a bit overboard," Qu Jianlei said, too lazy to pay him any more attention. "Let's keep in touch."
This time, when they entered the Silent Zone again, everyone knew that they only had a year and a half left.
Anyone who is unwilling to accept this can make their own choice—this quiet zone, like the second one, will be idle in the short term.
However, this time there were many more people in the Silent Zone, at least five more True Lords than last time.
Recreating that scene from the past is not easy, not to mention that Qu Zhenzun was a little distracted—he was paying attention to the small lake.
So it wasn't until three months later that the change occurred, and then... it was back to the usual routine.
Qu Jianlei was both exploiting the life force and absorbing the element of time.
Not only does it have a giant axe above its head, but it also has a compass of creation, brazenly displaying its existence.
As two of the Three Prodigies, Han Li and Xiao You's performances were just a little lacking; they didn't seem as composed.
The former is somewhat better; it stands there steadily, calm and composed, and can occasionally enter a state of tranquility.
Although Xiaoyou was also elegant and dignified, she seemed to be... lacking something.
For the next year and a half, Qu Zhenzun continuously transformed life force and occasionally absorbed the element of time.
Han Li tried her best to transform life force, but without the help of the giant axe, her efficiency was much lower.
He could also take over the life force transferred from the giant axe, but only if he discussed it with the ritual artifact first.
Moreover, this was a secret between him and Qu Zhenzun, and he didn't want others to know.
Of the three heroes, Xiao You is the most unfortunate. She struggles to find the ethereal feeling and is still unable to grasp the element of time.
However, she had a good attitude. After two unsuccessful attempts, she actually approached Qu Zhenzun and focused on sensing him.
It's true that one shouldn't be ashamed to ask questions of those less knowledgeable than oneself, but the vast difference between these three outstanding individuals is truly lamentable.
Xiaoyou would learn something and then try it out on her own, focusing on learning and applying what she learned immediately.
After she failed several times, Han Li actually moved closer and took the initiative to release her aura of creation.
It's unclear what they discussed, but Xiao You clearly lacked the aura of creation, yet Han Li was willing to help.
Even so, a year has passed, and Xiaoyou has not absorbed even a single element of time.
Qu Jianlei did not react to this; he had already done a lot for the team.
He even brought out the Compass of Creation so that everyone could sense the aura of creation.
No one would think that this should be free of charge, right?
To be honest, Xiaoyou sensed it very hard, and even suffered two minor backlashes as a result.
In the end, she gritted her teeth and took out the True Meaning of Creation—she really hadn't been bragging before, she truly possessed this thing.
These should be resources she just allocated, most likely prepared for Qu Zhenzun, or to complete some kind of transaction.
In the end, however, she still chose to use it herself—it was too embarrassing for her to be the only one among the Three Pride Masters without any achievements.
