Recruit black physique to start practice in wasteland

Chapter 2330 Because of Poverty
What shocked Jin Ge Zhenxian the most was encountering the terrifying "Transformation of the Dao"—Qu Jianlei was not the only one who was haunted by that scene.

Its true form directly searched for all the information in the Lingyun Sect, including a lot of information about the Star Tapir.

The fact that the Tapir tribe does not accumulate wealth does not quite match the information in the records, but there is also no information indicating that the Star Tapir is wealthy.

Qu Lingzhu had previously stated that there might be some differences between the society of the Star Tapir and the Tapir Clan, and Jin Ge thought this might be true.

However, the Star Tapir has a rather rare cultivation method, which is to cultivate using the remains of deceased members of its kind!

Jin Ge Zhenxian wasn't surprised at all. The world is full of wonders, and perhaps this was due to the Star Eater's philosophy of protection.

Just like the immortal remains of the Star Palace—that is, the original remains of the Master in the Pot—it can also provide opportunities for later cultivators.

The original intention of the person in the pot may have been good, but in the end, the clone took the wrong path.

Jin Ge Zhenxian even suspected that Hu Zhongzi might have borrowed some of the techniques from the Star Tapir skeleton.

"Ancestral remains?" Grand Venerable Ratan's mood instantly darkened. "Immortal Venerable, those are the remains left by the ancestors of the Tapir race. We will protect them with our lives!"

"Ten ancestral remains that have left the body," Jin Ge Zhenxian said calmly, as if he hadn't heard anything, "or I'll take my own life and wipe out your entire clan!"

Minning Zhenzun was unaware of the concept of ancestral remains, but an out-of-body corpse... isn't that a good thing too?
Needless to say, in lower realms like the Cangwu Realm, exchanging a corpse that has left the body for three to five sources of origin is not a big problem.

Upon hearing Jin Ge Zhenxian's words, he raised his hand and formed a hand seal, sending a faint ripple towards the main star of the Mo Clan.

"Stop!" This time, Ratan was truly anxious, no longer even saying "wait a moment." "I really don't have ten Out-of-Body Ancestral Remains!"

"Nine sets are acceptable," Jin Ge Zhenxian said calmly. "They clearly had ancestral remains before, yet they dared to take chances. Their intentions are despicable!"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Minning sighed inwardly, thinking that only a fatherless and motherless fellow like Jin Ge could utter such despicable words!
“There are no nine, only three,” Ratan sighed, stating curtly, “two of them are no longer usable.”

The clan is really in trouble this time; the other side even knows the secret of their ancestral remains.

If the Tapir clan wanted to produce a Great Venerable, it would take at least a thousand years. Where would they find so many Great Venerable corpses?

Besides aiding living Great Venerables in their cultivation, the remains of the Great Venerable are also unparalleled treasures for Nascent Soul Tapir Clan members to enhance their comprehension and attempt to break through to the Out-of-Body stage.

In this situation, no matter how many corpses leave the body, it won't be enough.

Ratan has managed things relatively well; he has one ancestral remains that he has hardly ever used.

"I want to search!" Jin Ge Zhenxian refused to give up.

He spoke with a cold laugh, "If I weren't so knowledgeable, wouldn't you be hiding your ancestral remains?"

It really wasn't lying this time! True Venerable Han Li looked at him speechlessly: Your perception level is still a bit lacking!

However, he couldn't expose his own family members; what he really wanted to see was how they would respond.

Will they reveal more hidden treasures, or willingly offer up their ancestral remains?
In any case, today's experience is enough to enrich his "Travels in Hanli" and help cultivators analyze the habits of the tapir race.

In Han Li's opinion, if he were to encounter such a situation, he would definitely fight to the death.

How could we possibly hand over the remains of our ancestors? Offering more hidden treasures would only fuel their insatiable greed; it would be better to fight to the death.

"Immortal Venerable can search!" Grand Venerable Ratan truly admitted it. What was there to say when one's skills were inferior? Let him search then.

It's nothing more than a little humiliation, but it saved the entire clan.

But it also had its own principles: "That intact ancestral remains cannot be handed over; they are the only support for my entire clan!"

The Tapir and the Zerg are currently locked in fierce combat, and it has no idea when it will have to join the battle.

Once damaged, the ancestral remains must be used for healing and recuperation; this is the clan's greatest trump card.

Secondly, the tribe's next astral projection will definitely require the power of the ancestral remains.

If this ancestral remains are handed over, it will almost certainly eliminate the possibility of the tribe producing the next Nascent Soul Grandmaster!

This is unacceptable to Ratan; otherwise, the tribe would be on the verge of collapse.

The tapir tribe values ​​protection highly, but that protection is only for their own tribe. The tapir tribe towards other tribes... is quite ordinary.

There is no problem with mutual assistance among the tribes of the Tapir clan; all Tapirs under heaven are one family.

However, those who value protection will inevitably value closeness and distance—a brainless, saintly figure who doesn't distinguish between closeness and distance doesn't exist in nature.

So, if a foreign tribe wants to seek protection, many benefits will not be available to them!
"Heh," Jin Ge Zhenxian sneered, "You provoked us and caused this trouble yourself, and now you want to blame us?"

"Those two skeletons don't matter, and I'm not afraid to tell you... I'm going to take the intact one!"

The other three immortal venerables watched coldly, without uttering a word.

"You..." Ratan the Great sternly glared at him, staring at each other for a long while before finally gritting his teeth, "Then cut off one of my legs!"

His divine sense had barely been sent out when a golden light shot straight towards one of his hind legs—it was incredibly fast!
Almost simultaneously, however, Ratan vanished without a trace, disappearing tens of millions of kilometers away.

"Hmm?" True Venerable Han Li frowned, releasing his chilling aura for hundreds of millions of kilometers without saying a word.

But his meaning was clear: Why don't you try running it again?
"I still have treasures!" Ratan's divine sense transmitted over instantly, as fast as it could be.

"He's really bad at everything but loves to play around," Jin Ge Zhenxian scoffed disdainfully, then withdrew his golden light.

Ratan didn't dare to approach either. "The rules...you want the rules too, right?"

Wenxian Zhenzun replied calmly, "That depends on the rules."

"Protect, protect the rules," Grand Master Ratan said solemnly. "Don't underestimate them; these rules are extremely powerful!"

Wenxian Zhenzun slowly shook his head, "You don't need to add that last sentence... Only your Mo clan would care about this!"

"The only other thing... is the rule of lightning," Grand Venerable Ratan said dejectedly, "There's only one, but Lei Xiu likes it very much!"

This guy is really not to be underestimated; he actually knows about Lei Xiu.

However, perhaps because of this, he believed that the rules of lightning were more valuable in the eyes of cultivators.

So he emphasized, "Actually, the rules for protecting people are really good; you'll know once you try them."

“Lightning is acceptable,” Jin Ge Zhenxian also knew that this was a really good move.

Such rare rules are also extremely rare in the cultivation world; if you sell to the right person, you can make a fortune.

"But I don't think you only have one skill. Don't force me to take action again."

Lightning and thunder are common on ordinary planets or tectonic plates, and there are even regions with relatively high concentrations of lightning, but their occurrence is rarely regular.
The most likely place for lightning to occur is in the starry sky, especially in spaces with electromagnetic chaos.

It's not surprising that Xingmo possesses the rules of lightning; Jin Ge believes that the other party is hiding its true strength once again.

“We need them too,” Ratan explained helplessly. “Although there are almost no tapirs with lightning attributes, we still need to train their resistance!”

The appearance of lightning attributes among the tapir race is a million times rarer than the appearance of lightning cultivators among the human race, but to wander in space, one must have lightning resistance!

Star tapirs are naturally tough and have high lightning resistance, but in certain special star regions, their lightning resistance needs to be further enhanced.

Therefore, the rules regarding lightning are not dispensable for them—in special circumstances, they can be quite useful.

Jin Ge has completely become the villain, "One isn't enough anyway!"

“Then we can only make up for it with guardians,” Ratan sighed helplessly. “I’ve done my best.”

“Then let’s have nine more guardian rules,” Jin Ge Zhenxian said casually. “Let’s each take one and study it.”

"Use the remaining four!"

"Where are there so many?" Grandmaster Ratan was getting anxious again. "Although the Tapir race values ​​protection, that's the rule, it's the rule!"

Jin Ge Zhenxian looked at him calmly, "Then tell me a few dishes. You won't have any more chances to bargain!"

"Only three...you five people, that's five..." Grand Venerable Ratan grimaced for a long time before finally steeling his resolve, "Six Paths!"

"Five are for research, and one is for practice... This is truly a wonderful thing!"

Cultivators need to study the rules of protection? Grand Venerable Ratan would never believe it, but now, he has no choice but to believe it.

Because this is the kind of treasure that the tapir clan has slightly more of.

However, with so much given away, the tribe will not be able to use the Guardian Rules too extravagantly for a considerable period of time in the future.

But there was nothing we could do; we had caused trouble after all.

Then he looked at the other two Star Eater Venerables, "You two, lend me one each!"

“Damn it…” Laru grinned. “I just wanted to see some fun. You owed me a thousand years ago… never mind, we’re all tapirs.”

"Hmm?" Immortal Jin Ge looked at it with interest. "What did you lend out?"

"Oh, it's just a little thing," Ralu exclaimed in surprise, "Um... I don't have it on hand right now!"

Something that can make the Great Venerable One dwell on it for a thousand years must be something extraordinary, but how could it dare to say so?
“What are you afraid of?” Jin Ge Zhenxian said dismissively. “I’m a reasonable person.”

“Yes, I can feel it,” Grandmaster Raru nodded. If it weren’t for that golden light just now, I might have believed it.

In short, Ratan added seven more rules before he finally gained forgiveness.

However, unbeknownst to the three Star Tapir Grandmasters, four pairs of eyes were intentionally or unintentionally looking at someone.

Qu Jianlei gritted his teeth secretly. This is too much. Why are you all looking at me?
What's most infuriating is that Jin Ge actually secretly sent a message through his divine sense: "Great news! Why do you look a little unhappy?"

"Because of poverty!" Qu Jianlei replied expressionlessly—can you please stop provoking me?

The Six Paths Guardian Rules are really too good to pass up, and our own few Immortal Venerables basically have no need for them.

But that Dao Yuan is still in the public treasury, and he wants to get another Dao Yuan.

With these six protective rules added to the mix, he felt he was really too poor!
This is so frustrating! Other people come to another world to explore and find opportunities, but he just feels poorer and poorer the more he searches!
