Recruit black physique to start practice in wasteland

Chapter 2329 Things turn out differently
Wenxian Zhenzun's attitude was good; he directly handed over the Yuan to the public treasury.

However, upon hearing this, Qu Jianlei shook his head helplessly. This was truly the case; he now fully realized his poverty!

As if hearing his innermost thoughts, Jin Ge Zhenxian glanced at him sideways and said, "Actually, you're not poor!"

He is the person in the team who understands Xiao Qu the most. Although Han Li is skilled in divination, how can one predict everything in the world?
At the very least, Jin Ge Zhenxian was well aware that there were Nascent Soul cultivators in Xiao Qu's team who favored fire-based techniques, and more than one of them.

Jin Ge has never led a team before, so naturally he didn't bring anyone with him this time. However, he has been in charge of the affairs of the Cangwu Realm Academy for tens of thousands of years!

He really understands the various needs of cultivators all too well. To put it bluntly, if he were to lead a team, he could crush 99% of them.

Qu Jianlei glanced at him and said, "Some things can't be sold, but I can transfer the debt owed by the Master of Arts."

Jin Ge Zhenxian shook his head helplessly, "They don't appreciate kindness!"

Upon hearing this, Master Wenxian became interested. "Old Jin, tell me, what songs do you sell?"

"You only call me Old Jin when you need my help?" Jin Ge rolled his eyes at him. "At the very least... he can make a replica of the White Horse Pagoda."

He wasn't afraid to share this news, because Master Quling had already given Shuge one, and had also promised Buhu one.

Both are under the effective control of the Lingyun Sect, and the latter is a direct descendant of the sect, so it is virtually impossible to keep this news a secret.

Even if Bu Hu is exceptionally composed and can keep his mouth shut, can he withstand the Great Venerable's calculations?
Han Li Zhenzun was also listening intently. Upon hearing this, he gave a soft hum and shook his head slightly.

It's just a time-space difference device; if he were willing to put in the effort, it wouldn't be that difficult to make.

Ultimately, it's just a replica. If it were the genuine Baiju Pagoda, he would still be willing to get his hands on it and study it.

But when Wenxian Zhenzun heard this, his eyes lit up immediately, "Is this method of making it for sale?"

Upon hearing this, Min Ning Zhenzun looked at him with suspicion, "You seem to have...never seen anything good before?"

He built his own temple, and his research on time and space is quite advanced.

"Heh," Venerable Wenxian chuckled dismissively, "You don't understand business at all!"

“I don’t think it’s necessary to understand,” said Minning Zhenzun, who ran a closed temple that emphasized self-sufficiency.

If you're really short of resources, you can go out to train and fight; there's no need to go into business.

The real work is to diligently cultivate and explore one's own potential; it's the mindset of "while others are making money, I'm stockpiling guns."

But he also knew that Wenxian was no less capable than himself, and that he could listen to some of her words, "You can teach me a lesson."

“I have no interest in that,” Venerable Wenxian replied without hesitation. “Little… Master Quling, give me the Dharma, and I’ll give you the Yuan!”

He was a formation cultivator, so even if he didn't want to do business, he had to. But after reaching the Out-of-Body stage, the formation business became much more difficult.

"No business for a thousand years, but once it opens, it'll feed you for a thousand years..." This is too passive a situation. Most of the business he's currently taking on is backward compatible.

Since we need to save money, it's necessary to add some smaller, flagship products.
"What are you thinking about?" Immortal Jin Ge spoke up. "You've already got the Dao talisman, shouldn't you be saving money? But..."

"Don't lend money, don't lend it to someone else. Don't you understand that principle?"

Despite not being of human origin and sometimes lacking in social skills, he is shrewd and calculating.

That's certainly a very insightful statement. No wonder he's the kind of person who can force the tutor in the library to take action!
"You're such a busybody!" Venerable Wenxian chuckled, unconcerned, and said, "Even if a deal falls through, we can still be on good terms."

"He's probably up to no good again," Jin Ge Zhenxian sneered. "Forget it, I can't expose Xiao Qu's trump card anymore."

“You can continue to expose it,” True Venerable Hanli said calmly, “I can also give him this hidden rune.”

"He has fire-type Nascent Soul cultivators under his command. It's not that he doesn't want them, but he knows his limits... However, he has to be able to impress me first!"

Jin Ge Zhenxian was speechless. So you knew about this too?

Qu Jianlei shook his head. "Forget it. Leave me some money to make a living. My chance will come soon, won't it?"

He only accepted the protection of the True Venerable Wenxian from his physical body; the opportunities that others received were all owed to him in some way due to karma.

In the cultivation world, accounting isn't always this meticulous. Although everyone cares about cause and effect, what he values ​​even more is this team's adherence to principles!

Qu Jianlei himself was very fortunate: when many teams go on expeditions, some people are destined to be cannon fodder, and he had encountered this kind of thing before!

It's not impossible that they might even commit murder to steal treasure.

But inexplicably, my luck suddenly turned around, and the team I had hastily assembled turned out to be so reliable!
You should know that when he tempted Hanli Zhenzun, his bottom line was to settle the empire's karma and, ideally, get a share of the spoils.

Perhaps that saying is true: talking about manners is the privilege of the upper class. Trying to talk about manners with the lower class will only make them think you are easy to bully!

Actually, he was overthinking it. The most important thing is that he has the power to overturn the table; otherwise, no matter how much he says, it's useless.

"I like people who know when to advance and when to retreat," said True Venerable Han Li. "I will help you with the next opportunity!"

Hearing these words is truly heartwarming!

However, Immortal Jin Ge immediately followed up with, "Your fortuitous encounter? I have a feeling that your constitution might be a bit..."

"You should stop now, Your Excellency," Qu Jianlei couldn't help but roll his eyes. They say you shouldn't insult someone by revealing their weaknesses, but we shouldn't do this.

Minning Zhenzun glanced thoughtfully at Qu Jianlei, "What I just said is still valid, it can be sold for a certain amount, and you can even get a discount!"

It's really a bit speechless about this, as if Yuan is really just an ordinary person.

But that's not actually the case; it's just that none of the four Venerable Ones were in a particular hurry.

Moreover, it was ultimately an auspicious opportunity, not one that warranted "taking it first no matter what."

For example, the spearhead that Jin Ge obtained is exactly what he urgently needs. If other Grand Venerables had to choose between two options, they would mostly choose Yuan.

Of course, Jin Ge could conceal his urgent desires, but everyone here is a Great Venerable, and it's impossible to hide what's useful to whom.

Therefore, when cultivators reach a certain level, they can speak their minds directly without compromising themselves. Even if they don't say it, others will understand.

In the end, Yuan was just born at the wrong time, and the team made successive gains in both different worlds.

The trip has already been worthwhile, but there are still large areas to explore, which naturally makes everyone even more eager to see what's to come.

As they talked and meditated, they arrived at the star system where Grandmaster Ratan was located.

Its galaxy also has three habitable stars, one of which is the most habitable, and there are some mineral-rich stars around it.

Ratan hadn't originally wanted to bring these unpleasant guests.

However, Venerable Wenxian bluntly stated, "Even if we kill you, we can still find you!"

These words are certainly not befitting of a celestial being, but there's no other way; when dealing with certain groups, one must use methods that they can understand.

Once it reached the tribe's territory, Ratan had no way to escape. If it dared to run away, its people would be doomed!
Although the tapir tribe is an unusual group, their protectiveness towards their own kind is not exaggerated; it is deeply ingrained in their very being.

Seeing Ratan head towards the planet, True Venerable Hanli looked at Rajan and Raru, "You two go back and bring the compensation later."

"We can leave now?" Rajan was a little incredulous; he had thought he would also be taken away to retrieve the treasure.

"If you have the guts, then collude with other tapirs to retaliate," Han Li said bluntly, "and take the risk!"

Laru winked at Rajan before speaking.

"We're not in a hurry to go back. We'll stay and wait with the immortals, which will give you all a few more days to rest."

The fact that the Star Eater was so considerate surprised True Venerable Han Li, who couldn't help but turn his head to look at the two of them.

Golden Immortal spoke directly, "Tell me your plans, or I'll have to take action!"

As it turns out, speaking in the way of the Star Tapir really works.

Laru paused for a moment before replying, "It's nothing, I just wanted to see how Grand Master Ratan is doing."

It was still the same old trick of the tapir clan; it wanted to know how much Ratan had to pay to escape punishment.

When it comes to scheming, this race is truly hopeless. Five days later, Ratan arrived with a worried look on his face.

He offered two original treasures, three treasures similar to the Earthly Origin Embryo, and twelve Extreme Spirits.

The remaining scattered treasures were clearly hastily put together, and looked extremely pitiful.

"Screw you," Jin Ge Zhenxian raised his hand, unleashing a golden slash, "Are you trying to fob me off like a beggar?"

No wonder he's so irritable; he's a high-ranking official, after all. Who is he trying to humiliate?
Ratan dared not retaliate, releasing two balls of azure light from his front paws to shield himself, while constantly dodging. "Let me explain!"

"Our tapir clan mostly relies on food supplements and external forces to improve our abilities; cultivation resources are always in short supply!"

Although it was dodging, the golden light would still track it. The two beams of green light collided with it dozens of times before the golden light finally dissipated.

This was because Jin Ge Zhenxian hadn't been exerting his full power. Ratan was naturally aware of this, and immediately absorbed the green light into his body after dispersing the golden light.

Only then did the Great Lord Rajan dare to speak tremblingly, "My esteemed immortals, please calm your anger and allow me to say a few words."

"Our clan has always taken care of its younger generation, and our cultivation techniques are very ordinary and extremely energy-consuming, unlike the human race which has a rich foundation. This is a fact."

Before Jin Ge Zhenxian could speak, Wen Xian Zhenzun snorted coldly, "I'm not surprised that you don't know the way to accumulate wealth to avoid disaster."

"But you, a great venerable one, don't you need to cultivate?"

“If you keep stalling, I’m really going to kill you… I’ll only give you three counts, three, two…”

"Wait a moment!" Grandmaster Ratan was both anxious and angry. "But we Nascent Soul cultivators rarely use resources for cultivation; at most, we use spirit stones!"

"Heh," Jin Ge Zhenxian sneered, "Cultivating without resources... what about the ancestral remains?"

"Huh?" Grandmaster Ratan looked at him in astonishment. "You actually know about the Ancestral Remains?"

"How rare is that?" Jin Ge Zhenxian scoffed dismissively.

He genuinely didn't know before, but after encountering the remains of the Out-of-Body Star Tapir on the Forgotten Peninsula, he became interested in this race.
