Chapter 2382 Brewing
Upon hearing Han Li Zhenzun's words, Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment before asking, "Is it the Lingyun Sect?"

The five agreed not to leak the information, but neither Min Ning nor Jin Ge could possibly keep the relevant information from Lingyun Sect.

Such a great opportunity, if they can't let Lingyun Sect reap a lot of benefits, the sect's rules alone will be enough to give them a hard time.

The fact that they could conceal their own and others' gains in the other world meant they had already reached their limit.

"Lingyun Sect might not be too outrageous, after all, it is a major sect," Hanli Zhenzun had a high opinion of Lingyun Sect.

"What I fear most is that some people in the sect are not good at keeping their mouths shut, and if the news gets out, they will be targeted by some random guys."

"The problem is, you have no idea who might be after you, and you can't be on guard against everyone, can you?"

Qu Jianlei was taken aback upon hearing this, "Is the Lingyun Sect, a sect of great stature, really that poor in management?"

"What are you saying? If Lingyun didn't have some rules and regulations, how could its lineage have lasted for so long?" Han Li's expression was a bit strange.

"But the problem is, you're not a sect disciple, so why should they keep such a large share of the secret for you?"

"If you were a strong Awakening cultivator, that would be fine; they would at least be wary of you. But the problem is, you're not even a weak Awakening cultivator!"

Qu Jianlei suddenly realized, and asked thoughtfully, "So there's a reason why some inexplicable people know this...?"

"I won't speculate too much on this matter," True Venerable Hanli replied calmly. "Anyway, Lingyun is vast and ancient!"

This is... quite frustrating! Qu Jianlei sighed softly, "It really feels like I'm not in control of my own destiny!"

“Who doesn’t?” Han Li agreed with his point of view. “As someone who has left my body, I often have this feeling, let alone you?”

"Now, do you need me to do some divination for you?"

How could Qu Jianlei possibly object? The fact that they informed him before the divination was already quite considerate.

Imagine in another world, Min Ning would use the Golden Spear to perform divination from time to time, but the Sorcerer didn't have any good ways to deal with it.

Han Li took out her special magic weapon and seriously performed a divination.

During this process, Qu Jianlei had a strange feeling because he had let down his guard and could feel the power of surveillance.

The feeling of being spied on is really unpleasant; it's a bit like going out naked...

Han Li's final conclusion was that Xiao Qu's advancement to the Out-of-Body stage should take between thirty and forty years.

After confirming the divination results, he had even more to say: "Look, it's been several decades."

In Han Li's view, Xiao Qu's accumulation of knowledge had reached a certain level, but true experts could also successfully achieve the Out-of-Body stage after three to five years of seclusion.

Those who seclude themselves for decades are not really that strong; those who go more than a century in seclusion are basically "struggling to do it."

There are more than one or two people who have successfully reached the Nascent Soul stage in over a century, but in Han Li's eyes, they can be considered as scraps.

Xiao Qu still has thirty to forty years. The key is that he has already begun to compress his aura and has room to solidify his foundation.

He strongly suggested that the other party continue to be active for another one or two decades, until the pressure is no longer enough, and then adjust their state in one go.

Qu Jianlei expressed his bewilderment, saying, "If I go out and do things for one or two decades, won't others have something to say about me?"

"Just keep suppressing your aura," True Venerable Hanli had truly thought it through carefully, "You'll be a proper Quasi-True Venerable!"

“In your current state, the four of us can speak up for you. There’s a huge difference between being close to the Nascent Soul stage and the nascent soul stage.”

"Most importantly, when you hide away and try to break through to the Out-of-Body stage, it will only take a few years, and others won't even have time to scheme against you!"

"Anyway, you have a treasure that suppresses your aura. Others may not know, but I can be absolutely certain!"

Qu Jianlei was defeated by his last sentence, "My treasures... Immortal Venerable, aren't the treasures you have enough now?"

"Who would complain about having too many treasures?" True Venerable Hanli replied sullenly. "If human nature weren't so fickle, why would we be in such a hurry to return?"

"But..." Qu Jianlei thought for a long time but couldn't figure it out. "I can't think of anything I can do."

"Just stay at No. 3 Efeng," said True Venerable Hanli. "You can show your face occasionally."

Qu Jianlei felt he might have guessed it, so he tentatively asked, "You... want to go fishing?"

Han Li Zhenzun was unaware of the fishing method, but he understood its meaning immediately.

He shook his head. "Not entirely, and the probability is even very small... Right now, the situation is just escalating!"

Upon hearing this, Qu Jianlei finally understood. "So you haven't announced that you've discovered another world yet?"

“Of course, those who are eager to buy are not good business,” True Venerable Hanli said without hesitation. “We must let them discover the anomaly on their own!”

“No wonder,” Qu Jianlei understood. With this kind of operation, ten or twenty years really isn’t a long time.

Who says the cultivation world doesn't understand marketing? Their approach is spot on; they first pique everyone's curiosity.

Even in a non-commercially developed society, a Great Venerable of the Out-of-Body Realm has lived for thousands of years and can think of everything he needs to think of.

"Don't worry, no one will dare to cause you trouble on Efeng No. 3," Han Li Zhenzun stated decisively, "not even Baiqiao!"

Baiqiao is a very capable True Venerable of Lingyun Sect, and can be said to be a powerful figure who can suppress a region.

Anyway, Qu Jianlei knew before that the influence of Minning Zhenzun was much smaller than that of Baiqiao Zhenzun.

As for True Venerable Han Li, he had never heard of him before, but after so many years of contact, he felt that Han Li should be stronger.

And since Efeng No. 3 is located in the core area of ​​Lingyun Sect, the fact that he dares to say this now carries a lot of implications.

But Qu Jianlei couldn't help but ask, "Because of the management of this section?"

“Of course,” Han Li Zhenzun answered without hesitation, “You don’t think I alone can control Efeng No. 3, do you?”

"I can't do it, and Baiqiao can't do it either, don't worry."

"How could I be at ease!" Qu Jianlei muttered. Rules are made by people, but they are only made for the weak.

However, with Han Li's promise, it's better than nothing.

The key point is what the other party stated. If he were to focus solely on seclusion, it would not only affect the actions of the four True Venerables, but also pose a considerable danger.

Even more tragically, he was almost certain that these things could indeed happen.

He gathered his team together, explained the situation, and everyone fell silent.

They've all fought their way through countless trials and tribulations. There are things they just haven't considered, but that doesn't mean they can't judge their truth.

“It seems the boss needs to find a new place to advance his ranks,” was Dorgon’s first reaction. “This is not a safe place.”

This is the standard reaction of someone who works independently: they are not used to accepting arrangements from others and will not easily trust anyone.

"The problem is, where do we find a second one?" Mu Yu sighed softly. "A fifth-order spiritual vein, where do we find one?"

Grandma Jia said quietly, "The noise when leaving the body... surely someone needs to protect you, right?"

"Then... let's give it a try," Jing Yuexin tentatively suggested. "If all else fails, we can just leave, right?"

“I think it’s a good idea,” Qu Jianlei nodded. “We can also try selling some supplies.”

This option was not part of his previous plans.

The team has always been short of supplies, and this time they have made a considerable haul, but they are not used to selling supplies.

However, in reality, some of the supplies are unlikely to be needed by the team in the short term, so they can consider selling them for cash.

Most importantly, the Hongyeling team has had almost no presence in the Houde community so far.

Of course, within high-level circles, especially among the elites, this team is not exactly unknown, but not many people know about them either.

But the team members didn't want things to stay this way. They hoped to live openly in front of the public, just like they did in the Cangwu Realm.

Hongye Ridge was initially shrouded in mystery in Cangwu, but its origins were somewhat taboo. Later, its members became known to everyone.

They are more famous and mysterious in the Empire, but the kind of life that Digital Phantom leads, which is basically isolated from the world, is not what everyone wants.

Now everyone hopes to have some daily interactions with the world and live a normal life.

However, identity is a problem in itself, and what to sell is another issue... What good things can someone who came from the lower realm bring with them?

The key is that the products you sell must be able to withstand scrutiny from discerning people, right?

Now that the four Grand Venerables are planning to escalate the situation, it's time to consider taking action on the team's gains in the other world.

This matter was handed over to Jia Shuiqing, while Duo Gan and Jing Yuexin entered a semi-secluded state and began to try their best to adjust their state.

The best time left for them to advance to the next level is less than three hundred years. From now on, they need to consider gradually reducing the number of times they attack.

During their journey to the other world, the two didn't engage in combat very often, but they maintained a high level of intensity during the final eight years of trials.

Dorgon was also injured as a result, and has not yet recovered, requiring rest.

However, Old Lady Jia was just as capable as Duo Gan in handling affairs. She didn't go directly to the market, but instead informed Fei Hong Zhen Xian first.

Fei Hong was Min Ning's manager at Efeng No. 3. Although he did not participate in the conquest of the other world, he knew a little about it.

He knew that the Great Venerable had recently returned, so it was normal for the tenants of the fourth-tier spiritual land to reappear.

Hearing that Jia Shuiqing was looking for a place to sell some rare supplies, he had a pretty good idea of ​​what was going on.

It is said that the Celestial Venerable went to dangerous places to collect materials in order to improve his Daoist temple.

These people are following in the footsteps of others, and the goods they want to sell probably also come from the same area.

So he got a general idea of ​​the situation and took this opportunity to report to the Immortal Venerable.

Upon receiving the news and learning about the situation of the supplies, Min Ning simply stated: "No need for us to purchase them; just introduce some channels."

The process should be kept secret, and you should be kept out of the way as much as possible.

Fei Hong Zhenxian was a little puzzled. He felt that the tenant was asking for help because he wanted to use gray channels; otherwise, he could just sell it openly.

Using gray channels while remaining discreet is quite difficult—it's harder to gain the trust of the trading partners.
