Recruit black physique to start practice in wasteland

Chapter 2468 Greedy Song Yue'er

Qu Jianlei learned about the Chaos Wood Spirit from the Heroic Spirits and confirmed it not long ago.

However, even the heroic spirits didn't mention the evil spirits' claims, so it's unclear whether they were unaware of it or if their perception was mistaken.

However, once he reaches the Nascent Soul stage, he has to figure things out on his own, and the help that his seniors can provide is no longer much.

However, this is an inevitable part of growing up, so there's no need to feel sentimental about it.

He analyzed Han Li's seal and began to dismantle it.

Because the seal had been somewhat loosened by the impact of divine sense, it was relatively easy to remove.

While dismantling it, Qu Jianlei secretly felt lucky; if he hadn't dealt with this guy in time, who knows what kind of serious trouble it might have caused.

After removing the seal, he thought for a moment and decided to examine the ugly tree roots directly in the cave.

Firstly, the treasure was captivating, and secondly, he didn't want others to guess what methods he might have used to deal with the evil spirit.

However, outside the cave, several True Venerables looked at each other.

Finally, it was the True Venerable Qingkong who spoke up, "It feels like a major karmic issue, has it been resolved?"

It's normal for the Great Protector to be able to sense the resolution of cause and effect—strictly speaking, he can sense more than just this.

Just now, a mysterious aura suddenly emerged from Qu Zhenzun's illusory image.

It was the strike from the Dao Stele that dealt with the evil spirit that caused the leakage of vital energy.

Unlike other treasures, the Dao Stele does not have the concern of being a divine object that conceals its existence. Its existence is quite transcendent and it does not care about external perception.

Although its attack was brief, it did not restrain its aura, so much so that the cave could not be completely sealed off.

Not only did the Great Protector sense it, but even Song Yue'er and Tianli Zhenzun, whose cultivation levels were relatively lower, also felt it.

Although that mysterious aura was very faint and fleeting, which of the five True Venerables present was lacking in discernment?

Vast, boundless, ancient, profound, majestic... it even conveys a faint, elusive Daoist charm.

However, although everyone sensed it, no one mentioned it.

Clearly, this was Qu Zhenzun's own secret method. Since he wouldn't let us see it, we should just pretend we didn't know.

Not long after, Qu Jianlei's phantom gradually materialized, and then he sighed softly, "That was close... thankfully it's resolved."

What everyone wanted to know was how he had dealt with his opponent, but it wasn't really convenient to ask in detail.

Han Li raised his hand and calculated, "Fortunately, it's Qu Zhenzun himself... really the Chaos Wood Spirit?"

Since Teng Xi Zhenzun's death was shrouded in mystery, it wasn't too offensive of him to divine the other party's true form.

However, it was only convenient for him to take action; it might not have been convenient for someone else, at least the Grand Protector didn't want to take the lead.

Qu Jianlei frowned slightly. "It doesn't seem to be a wood spirit; it's highly likely that it has become evil."

"Possessed by evil?" Several True Venerables frowned slightly upon hearing this... "Possessed by evil by a Wood Spirit? What kind of nonsense is this?"

The next moment, everyone's attention turned to Jin Ge—no one could match his knowledge.

Jin Ge pondered for a moment, his expression somewhat strange, "Well, 'becoming evil' is a rather subjective term."

"However, as a Chaos Spirit, since it is suspected of possessing a True Venerable, it is not surprising that it is called an Evil Spirit from a causal point of view."

Judging from his appearance, everyone had some other thoughts in their minds: This Master of Arts is not honest!

Jin Ge must have noticed more details, but it was clearly inconvenient for him to say them, so he only gave a general explanation.

However, since this involved Qu Zhenzun's privacy, no one could ask any further questions. They could only secretly decide to go back and check the records more thoroughly.

The next moment, Qu Jianlei had a thought, and an array plate appeared, followed by the ugly tree root.

However, at this moment, only half of the ugly tree root remained.

Qu Jianlei said calmly, "The true form of the Chaos Wood Spirit is also a rare treasure; everyone who sees it should have a share."

He didn't explain where the other half went, nor did he know whether it was put away or destroyed in the battle.

However, no one could ask why this trophy, in principle, should belong entirely to Qu Zhenzun.

In that case, logically speaking, Qu Zhenzun should also offer some tokens of appreciation to the five True Venerables who participated in the battle.

The remaining ugly tree roots are now being shared among everyone, and the effect is even better than everyone expected.

"I'll pass," Tianli Zhenzun said somewhat embarrassedly, after all, it was his business, "and I didn't put in much effort."

"I want them all," Song Yue'er said with burning eyes. She had not only contributed to the battle, but also spent two days burning the outer shell.

In terms of contribution, she could indeed rank second—if we don't count the Great Protector's karmic curse and tracking.

Song Zhenzun was not greedy, but had his own reasons: "This treasure is of great use to me, and I am willing to compensate you all."

Music belongs to nothing more than metal, stone, silk, and bamboo instruments, so it's not surprising that she has this need.

"It seems useless to others," Jin Ge muttered upon hearing this, as this treasure was perfect for him to hone his skills.

However, he was just saying that casually.

There are more than just this kind of treasure that can help him hone his skills, but it's much harder to find a suitable substitute for the one that Song Yue'er can use.

Han Li rolled her eyes at Song Zhenzun, "You really haven't seen anything good before... I suggest you just take one share."

"Otherwise, when you start developing other worlds, you'll find yourself terribly poor."

Song Yue'er was slightly taken aback, then realized what she meant, and her eyes lit up instantly, "Are there really so many opportunities there?"

Upon hearing this, Han Li curled her lip and said sullenly, "I don't know how lucky you are, but I'm terribly poor right now."

“You can be poor…” Song Zhenzun nodded thoughtfully upon hearing this, “Then… let’s split it together.”

The bigger and more complete this kind of treasure is, the better.

However, since several True Venerables had already made their moves, none of them were willing to give away their treasures.

Even the Heavenly Venerable One feigned reluctance before accepting the smallest share.

However, he was also capable of doing things, and he took the initiative to invite several True Venerables to discuss how to deal with the properties under the name of True Venerable Tengxi.

In fact, the True Lord does not need to personally intervene in such matters; it is sufficient to delegate them to his subordinates.

However, since Tianli was Tengxi's well-known enemy, his invitation was considered a legal basis for the several great venerables to intervene in this matter.

Song Yue'er wasn't very concerned about this matter. Even though she had followed Han Li's advice, she was still more concerned about the distribution of tree roots.

Then she had a new question: "Something feels off about the core of this tree root?"

On the cross-section of the half-ugly tree root, a piece of the core area is missing, indicating that something must have been removed.

Song Zhenzun wasn't the only one to discover this; everyone was certain that Qu Zhenzun was entitled to take the lion's share.

This is not only because he organized this event, but also because Qu Zhenzun personally killed that strange evil spirit.

However, Song Yue'er spoke up not because she was brainless, but because she had made some unusual discoveries.

"The atmosphere in this core area feels a bit off."

People had similar feelings before, but no one really took the time to perceive them.

Since Qu Zhenzun was able to completely eliminate a troublesome being, relieving everyone of their worries, it's only right that he receives some extra benefits.

Although the evil spirit has been captured, it may not be easy to completely eradicate it, and there may be other karmic connections involved.

But when Song Zhenzun said that, everyone couldn't help themselves and began to use their divine senses to perceive it.

Previously, no one took the lead, but now someone has spoken up. Putting aside interests, everyone is curious.

After a careful examination, everyone fell silent again. After a long while, the Great Protector exclaimed, "The destiny of the True Lord Qu Zhen is too strong!"

There are some things he doesn't really want to say, but he just can't help it.

Qu Jianlei originally intended to pretend to be deaf and dumb, but after hearing everyone talk about it to this extent, he had a sudden thought and released a ball of light.

Within the ball of light was a small compass, which looked quite ancient.

He said expressionlessly, "This compass is inside, but it's not necessarily a good thing that you fellow Daoists know about it now."

"Wow," Jin Ge couldn't help but exclaim, "Song Zhenzun, can you please stop being so curious?"

He had finally managed to acquire some treasures, but Song Yue'er's words clearly indicated that she had other ideas.

But despite his words, his divine sense still honestly swept over it.

Several divine senses swept over the area almost simultaneously, one after the other, and then fell silent.

After a long while, True Venerable Tianli sighed softly, "It's actually a Qi Luck Compass. No wonder this Wood Spirit is so ruthless!"

Now, the whole matter has been basically sorted out. Mu Ling obtained this compass from somewhere and wants to absorb and digest it.

However, even though the Wood Spirit is already very strong, it is still very difficult to absorb such a treasure that involves luck.

It is precisely because of this that it needs to seize a large number of treasures to help absorb the compass, which is why the "Pixiu" behaves so madly.

Just as everyone had sorted things out, they heard Han Li snort softly, "This shouldn't be a compass of fortune, but destiny!"

"Otherwise, if you had good fortune... at least absorbed some of it, why would you be in this situation? The compass contains destiny."

A compass can contain not only fortune and karma, but also the mysteries of heaven or the true meaning of destiny.

Upon hearing this, Song Yue'er glanced at him in surprise, a hint of suspicion rising in her heart: You just exposed your friend's gains like that?
She has known Han Li for hundreds of years and knows his character well. Although he can be willful at times, he is always willing to consider his friends.

The Great Protector frowned slightly, nodded slightly, and then said, "I wonder what this has to do with that evil cultivator's compass?"

The Heavenly Mystery Compass used by heretical cultivators, as well as the later improved Essence Blood Compass, have recently appeared.

Qingkong remembered the Mother-Child Essence Blood Compass used by Fang Qingyang. Although the Fang family had been destroyed, he was still somewhat conflicted.

“The compass itself is innocent,” Han Li said calmly, casually pulling a compass into his palm. “It’s just a tool.”

"The problem lies with the people, why blame the equipment? I believe Fellow Daoist Qu can control the compass, right?"

"Hmm," Qu Jianlei nodded upon hearing this, but he was a little puzzled: What has Han Li realized?
