Recruit black physique to start practice in wasteland

Chapter 2478 I Don't Understand
Qu Jianlei was a little surprised: Has the development of otherworldly realms gotten this complicated now?
However, this is definitely a viable business, especially since Qianhuan Zhenzun said that we should split the rent in half.

However, Qu Jianlei couldn't help but protest, "If we do this, everyone will know that I have Ling Mountain, and you won't be at risk!"

“Qu Zhenzun, you have years to live!” Qianhuan replied matter-of-factly, “You don’t need a few more things for others to covet.”

"Moreover, having Mount Ling in your possession is a form of self-protection, so others will have to think twice before trying to harm you."

Qu Jianlei nodded slightly, "That's right. If they don't make a move, all is well, but if they do, they'll definitely take my life. It saves us from any further trouble!"

"That's a pointless statement," Thousand Illusion True Venerable chuckled dryly, "You're taking half for nothing. Risk and obligation are always relative, aren't they?"

"Don't think I'm taking little risk. If Mount Ling is damaged, you won't be responsible for the repair costs, will you?"

"And who says that once you have Mount Ling, it's for life? A spiritual treasure that's half-step into the Divine Realm can't leave on its own once it gains consciousness?"

"You've got a real knack for business!" Qu Jianlei shook his head, both amused and exasperated. "How do you plan to charge?"

He was still somewhat tempted, but as the saying goes: "Many lice don't bite when there are too many of them!"

The power of time travel has already put too much pressure on people, and there are even more... new routes for leaving the body in the future.

He didn't tell outsiders, nor did Han Li, that the probability of Qing'er successfully leaving her body had increased from 0.5% to 2.5%!

A 50% probability is already frightening enough, which is enough to prove that the innate advantages of the dragon race are too obvious.

Previously, he had calculated the out-of-body experiences of Jing Yuexin and Duo Gan, with the former at 6% and the latter at 4%!
Of course, it's not difficult to make some adjustments and slightly increase the probability, but it's very difficult to get past 100%, let alone 20%.

If it's 25%... Qu Jianlei himself didn't have that much confidence when he was trying to advance to the next level.

Even if the Azure Dragon fails to advance to the next level, there will still be people who continue to risk choosing this method.

His perfect exit from the body is not fake; this method will be proven sooner or later and has the value of being replicated.

Before the second perfect astral projection occurs, he will definitely be the first person to consult—without exception!

Qu Jianlei believed that with these two abilities, he would be in the spotlight for a long time to come.

So this Ling Mountain... is just one more thing, and there's no need to worry about others being envious, it's already as famous as it can get, right?
Qianhuan's plan is to start renting for 10 Extreme Spirits for a period of 20 days, and then charge 1 Extreme Spirit for each day exceeding that period!
It's really expensive, but Qianhuan says that if we're going to open, we can't make too little money.

Moreover... a spiritual treasure that's only half a step into the Divine Realm, it's already good enough if someone's willing to rent it out, let alone dare to pick and choose a price?

Qianhuan still felt wronged, "If I hadn't thought they might not be able to afford it, I would have asked for at least fifty spirit stones!"

The good thing is: no deposit is required. Anyone with the guts can try to refine it or keep it!

Speaking of this, Qu Jianlei suddenly remembered something else, "Aren't you worried that... the person might be unhappy if you rent it out like this?"

"That person..." Qianhuan hesitated for a long time before finally saying, "...should have arrived already!"

"Huh?" Qu Jianlei was genuinely shocked by this news. This is... a powerful being above the Nascent Soul stage has come along?

He thought and thought, and dared not let his mind wander. He was genuinely afraid that if someone sensed his thoughts, it would be troublesome.

However, he also had a guess that it wasn't aimed at this powerful figure, but rather at the avatar of the Lingyun Sect.

Ling Yun spearheaded the development of this other world, and more than twenty years have passed, proving that these two other worlds are indeed rich in resources.

In this situation, isn't it normal for Lingyun's divided spirit lord to quietly come and take a look?
As for the deaths and injuries of cultivators below the Nascent Soul stage, or even the injuries of True Venerables, it's still normal for Nascent Soul experts to be too lazy to care.

From another perspective, the master of Mount Ling originally did not want Qianhuan to recklessly act against the Mount Ling avatar, lest he incur karmic consequences.

However, when Qianhuan mentioned news from another world and her desire to make a move against Mount Ling, the response there was tacit approval, indicating that the powerful figure was somewhat interested.

The Great Lord of Lingyun might be interested in this place. Are the other powerful beings just going to sit idly by?
Therefore, Qu Jianlei felt that there was no need to pursue this matter further.

The fact that Qianhuan dared to have this thought, without any unseen obstacles or prompts, already speaks volumes.

So he turned around and repeated it to Han Li again—Jin Ge is a good friend, but he's really not smart enough.

As expected, Han Li's concerns were the same as his, namely those two points.

Finally, he said, "Since the spirit has been handled, everyone who sees it gets a share. Let's split it in half!"

This should not be simply interpreted as greed, but rather as Han Li wanting to help him share the risks—this Ling Mountain belongs to me and Qu Zhenzun!
Qu Jianlei glared at him resentfully, "You're really going too far to care about such a small amount of money!"

"I'm not far from advancing to the next level," Han Li said calmly. "At most a thousand or eight hundred years, I'll still be counting on you to help protect me!"

"I'm going to be the protector of the Divine Lord?" Qu Jianlei shook his head, both amused and exasperated. "You really think highly of me!"

"Who can say for sure?" the handsome young man replied dismissively. "Who knows, you might even be able to defy a Great Lord with your True Venerable cultivation?"

"This seems... a bit more difficult than protecting the Dharma," Qu Jianlei replied with a worried look. "How about I try to challenge the True Lord first?"

"That's impossible, I won't agree!" Han Li said casually, "Don't mess with my Dao heart!"

"Alright, let's not flatter each other anymore. Are you going back now?"

"Yes," Qu Jianlei nodded. He knew very well that he couldn't hide his thoughts from the other party.

"The order of conflict between the two worlds has stabilized relatively. I've been away from home for a while, so I should go back and check on things. Shall we go together?"

“Then let’s do it together,” Han Li nodded slightly. “The opportunities of this world… alas, one cannot have both.”

As more and more cultivators flock to the world, opportunities in the Tree Clan world are rapidly decreasing.

Even the opportunity that the five-person group had previously identified was discovered by Qingkong and Song Yue'er.
Most of the time, the five of them could only stay at the camp to oversee things.

Going out occasionally is fine, but going out frequently is really unacceptable.

This is the inevitable price to pay if you want to collect management fees; they had already prepared themselves mentally before taking any action.

So it's a normal reaction for Qu Jianlei and Han Li to want to go back – if they don't compete with minor cultivators for resources, no one will complain.

Qu Jianlei and Han Li each left a clone to oversee the camp, while simultaneously advertising the rental of Ling Mountain.

Their true forms are the exit to the Asura world.

After entering the Asura world, Qu Jianlei had a sudden thought: "Should I go and take a look at the intersection of worlds?"

Han Li nodded slightly. "I had the same idea. Let's see... well, what we can gain from this."

At the crossroads of the world, three true masters were observing and comprehending, two of whom arrived later.

This kind of enlightenment is best experienced when the original being is present; only then can the understanding be most profound. It was only when the master in the pot split himself to attain enlightenment that such a tragedy occurred.

It's clear that some people are truly wise enough to choose not to seek opportunities in the Tree Clan world, but rather to immerse themselves in those opportunities.

Qu Jianlei and Han Li also released their divine senses, comprehended them for two days, and then left together.

A gaunt and emaciated True Venerable slightly raised his eyelids, glanced in the direction where the two had disappeared, snorted softly, and continued his comprehension.

After Qu Jianlei and his companion left the Asura World, they traveled through the void for two days before Han Li used his divine sense to ask, "How does it feel?"

Qu Jianlei shook his head slightly, "That one who looks like a withered tree... I can't quite figure him out."

“Same,” Han Li nodded, letting out a soft sigh, “It feels like… it’s more than just leaving the body!”

The two were of one mind, and while they claimed to be trying to understand the mysteries of the world's intersection, they were actually taking the opportunity to release their divine senses and perceive the world.

After realizing something was wrong, neither of them reacted unusually and calmly left.

The matter of the Divided Spirit Lord is truly not to be discussed; even having related thoughts requires utmost caution.

However, the two had basically the same understanding, and what the Divided God True Lord cared about was the mystery of the intersection of worlds.

Of course, if Han Li's Primordial Purple Qi were discovered, he would probably be quite frustrated, but such an opportunity is not something you can just come across easily.

Anyway, this Great Lord was an incarnation of a True Venerable, and he didn't mind having two True Venerables sensing him nearby, so he didn't have any malicious intent.

But how could ordinary people possibly fathom the joys and sorrows of a true lord?

Their question-and-answer session was merely a mutual verification of their judgments; there was no need to say another word, as it would only bring trouble upon themselves.

More than a year later, the two finally reunited in Houdejie.

It's fortunate that I had someone to accompany me on the journey; otherwise, I would have been bored to death traveling alone.
Both of them brought back a lot of subordinates, but between those who have left the body and those who have reached the Nascent Soul stage... there really isn't much to talk about.

Qu Jianlei still had some topics to discuss with the people of Hongye Ridge and the cultivators of Cangwu.

However, most of the time it was just a recollection of past battle experiences, and then the True Venerable would answer some of everyone's questions about cultivation.

As for other casual conversation, as long as Qu Jianlei remains silent, the other party will absolutely not initiate it—this is the respect that the True Venerable should have.

Unbeknownst to him, a subtle chasm was forming, even though he hadn't been out of his body for long and had a good relationship with his team.

Some people drift apart as time goes by; this is not an exaggeration, but an objective fact.

Qu Jianlei wanted to talk more with the team members, but Han Li told him that some causes and effects can only bear their due weight!
He didn't mean to provoke anyone; he just didn't want his future fellow Daoists to be too stubborn about certain things, as that would be disrespectful to the path of Dao!

But Qu Jianlei also had his own opinion: "If I don't do this, my mind won't be clear. These contacts might become resources in the future."

Han Li smiled dismissively, "Fine, who can say for sure about the path of distraction?"

In the Realm of Profound Virtue, there is a path to leave the body, but splitting the spirit depends entirely on one's own abilities, somewhat similar to the Imperial Awakeners' attempt to reach the highest level.

Even with Han Li's extraordinary talent and impeccable lineage as a cultivator, his bewilderment regarding the split spirit demonstrates the difficulty of the path to immortality.
