Recruit black physique to start practice in wasteland

Chapter 2536 Individuality

Qu Jianlei and his group of seven re-entered the Girl Starfield, their main exploration target being several energy clusters marked by the Realm of All Things.

The complexity of the Maiden Starfield far exceeds everyone's imagination; it probably cannot be fully explored in a hundred or two hundred years.

It's not that a star field is more complex than a world; the key difference lies in the rules.

Qu Jianlei didn't plan to stay here long. His purpose in coming here was to go through the areas that the cultivators of all things were interested in.

He wasn't in a hurry to explore areas he hadn't yet been able to.

He also really wanted to explore the Maiden Starfield extensively, but as he said before, he was simply too busy.

With the Azure Dragon's breakthrough largely complete, it was time for him to return and check on the two women's preparations for their advancement.

So before entering the Girls' Starfield, he said, "I will stay for a maximum of three years, and then I will leave."

Qingkong smiled and said, "Alright, then you go ahead, we'll continue our exploration... Just leave the warship behind."

“No problem,” Qu Jianlei answered readily. “Also, keep an eye on the Empire for me, make sure it doesn’t get bullied.”

"Hmph, he's also someone who can't completely sever the cause and effect," Qingkong snorted lightly.

He himself was trying to sever karmic ties, but the results were not good; otherwise, he would not have fallen for Qianhuan's scheme.

Three and a half years later, not only did Qu Jianlei leave, but the other six people also left.

In these three years, they only lost one division-class ship, but two of the Asura Mother Nests used for defense were severely damaged.

In short, the gains were meager and the risks were considerable; it could only be considered that the effort wasn't entirely wasted.

Qu Jianlei originally only wanted to leave with Han Li, but before they left, Qing Kong cast a divination.

The divination indicated that it was not advisable to explore further in the short term, so Jin Ge decided to leave with the two of them.

His reasoning was, "I feel that without Qu Zhenzun's involvement, the malice of the entire world has increased."

There is no evidence for this statement, but True Venerables generally don't consider this factor when they act; they go by feeling first.

The greedy Song Yue'er was somewhat unwilling to give up and wanted Han Li to help her with the divination.

As a result, Qingkong simply quit, saying, "I'm not staying here either. This place... is too eerie!"

He knew very well that in the Asura world, there were demigods of Houde, and behind True Venerable Xiaoyou, there were also Great Lords.

Neither of them made any move against the Girl Starfield, especially the latter, who didn't even inquire about his disciple being trapped.

If only one True Lord reacted this way, it could be considered a coincidence, but two... that's a different story.

So all seven returned unharmed, just in time for the Azure Dragon to finish its transformation, though it is currently still in seclusion.

Her seclusion was conducted in a very proper manner, and with many cultivators watching, barring any major unforeseen circumstances, she would not emerge from seclusion for at least ten years.

Six months ago, feedback from around the world emerged, but the effect was indeed mediocre, and the number of responses was not large.

However, besides the Azure Dragon absorbing most of it, a portion of it benefited the surrounding cultivators who were watching.

The True Venerables who were guarding them did not intervene, because it was indeed not worth it.

However, the news of the Azure Dragon emerging from its body still attracted the attention of cultivators from beyond the realm, and this time it was the Upper Good Realm that took the lead in coming forward.

They weren't completely unaware of the situation; the area had already been designated a restricted zone.

Nobody paid much attention because the success rate of attempting to leave the body was extremely low.

As for breaking through to another world? Xiaoyou Zhenzun's previous understanding was quite representative—it was pure madness.

However, after the Azure Dragon successfully emerged from its body, they went back in time and were shocked to discover that Houde had been paying close attention all along!

Qu Jianlei and others can conceal the secrets of heaven, but how can they conceal the secrets of heaven after decades of guarding?
As for the strict guarding by the Lingyun disciples in the later stages, it was even more impossible to hide from everyone.

The Venerable One of the Supreme Goodness Realm has reason to suspect that cultivators of the Profound Virtue Realm may have made new discoveries in a certain field.

As for new astral projection paths? They didn't dare to think about it, because the possibility was too small.

The current cultivation theory is quite comprehensive and covers a wide range of topics. It is already quite good to achieve a breakthrough in a specific area.

The reaction from the Realm of All Things was rather strange; it simply followed and supported the Realm of Supreme Goodness without making a move.

In fact, the two groups of True Venerables, Xiaoyou and Colin, sneaked in quietly, and Houde Realm did not announce it to the outside world, so as not to let other families follow suit.

It's even more unbelievable that a cultivator of all things would announce this to the outside world. They secretly came in to seek opportunities, but ended up having to ask Ling Yun for help. It's really shameful.

When questioned by cultivators from outside the region, Baiqiao once again resorted to the tactic of shifting blame.

He stated that Lingyun's protection was in response to Qingning's request, and that Qu Zhenzun and the others should have done the same.

As for why Qing Ning is so popular and so rich... you should ask him.

So, why is it possible to successfully break through to the other world and leave the body? We still need to ask the person in question!
Qingning Zhenzun silently took the blame because... he was too poor!
Baiqiao had already stated that the karmic debts you incur will naturally decrease as long as you can handle them.

Poverty makes one lose ambition; he truly had no choice. However, his Daoist partner had ultimately achieved the stage of transcending the physical body. With this tremendous good news, nothing else mattered.

If the two of them manage the business diligently in the future, I don't believe that the two True Venerables won't be able to repay that debt!
In contrast, the return of Qu Zhenzun and his seven companions after disappearing for more than three years did not attract much attention.

Someone in the Myriad Realms should have noticed, but Xiaoyou and the others have long since disappeared, and no one is qualified to contact them.

The Five True Venerables greeted Baiqiao and then prepared to turn back, but Baiqiao did not want them all to leave.

The conquest of the otherworld has reached a stable period, and Ling Yun is organizing manpower to attack the remaining two half-step Nascent Soul insectoids.

Besides, it wouldn't be appropriate for everyone to go back... They can't just take the money for nothing, can they?

The last two remaining were Minning and Jinge. The former was responsible for offering sacrifices, while the latter was in a lot of debt and needed to work hard to earn money.

On the way back, Wenxian specifically mentioned that once he returned to Houde, his true form would be unlikely to appear again.

Only clones can appear; if the two of them want to ask the original body for help, they need to communicate in advance.

Qu Jianlei and the other man were not surprised, because Wen Xian had long had the idea of ​​breaking through the Divine Realm.

He has about a thousand years left to live, and he has collected enough resources. It's time to start making preparations.

Preparations would take at least several hundred years, but expecting him to participate in another major war is basically impossible.

In addition, he had another unreasonable request: among the Five True Venerables, he was everyone's creditor.

Everyone else wanted more, but after he obtained the Natural Dao Talisman, he reduced his pursuit of it considerably.

He hoped the two of them could help look after those debts, collecting whatever they could, since he wasn't in a hurry.

This is a legitimate request, and the true deities will not ignore the cause and effect involved.

Anyone who dares to disregard cause and effect and harbor evil thoughts... please consider how crazy the True Venerable, who is about to die of old age, will go.

It's just a mutual entrustment between fellow Daoists, so there's no need to say more.

Qu Jianlei returned to Houde, and as was customary, he first went to Cangwu to drop off the cultivators he had brought back.

Some of the cultivators were brought back to the spiritual land of Efeng No. 3 so that they could experience the aura of the upper realm.

It must be admitted that after conquering other worlds, some Cangwu cultivators can no longer return to what they were before.

Previously, it was inconvenient for Qu Jianlei to bring people up—ultimately, he had to consider the feelings of Lingyun Sect.

But since Ling Yun has already started to win them over, it's only natural to try to take things a step further.

Ultimately, Qu Jianlei is truly empathetic towards the cultivators of Cangwu, so it's only natural that he would make some slightly outrageous attempts.

As for whether they will be targeted... before dealing with the main culprit, no one should dare to do that, right?
Then he went to Jiuyou Island to find out about the two women.

Dogan has been making adjustments over the years and has already begun the final preparations before going into seclusion. He is just waiting for Dogan to return so he can perform a divination.

After calculating, Qu Jianlei said, "That's basically it. I'll wait another year or two and see if I can find some good stuff."

He didn't mention the probability of it taking shape, and Dorgon didn't ask either—no one would bring up this topic at a time like this.

However, Qu Jianlei was not optimistic; he thought her chances of advancing were only 16%.

In fact, this probability is already quite high; most people attempting to leave their nascent soul have less than a 10% chance of achieving this.

It's no wonder that cultivators regard the attempt to leave the body as a daunting task.

The fact that Duogan has a 16% chance of success is largely thanks to the team led by Boss Qu, which has a strong supply capacity.

However, Qu Jianlei had witnessed the nearly 40% success rate of the Azure Dragon breaking through its body.

Some things are indeed incomparable, but he just can't help but think about them.

Two weeks later, he secretly did another divination, and the result proved that the probability of Dorgon using the new method was around 10%.

Because he did not select a specific location in the otherworld, the probability fluctuates greatly, and there is only a rough baseline value.

However, there is no doubt that even if the most suitable other world is chosen, the probability should not be more than 16%.

Duogan has enough resources and rich combat experience, and the time is just right for her to advance her cultivation level. Advancing her cultivation level in the world of cultivation is the right thing to do.

The new path to leaving the body pioneered by Qu Jianlei is merely an effective supplement to the normal path and cannot surpass the most basic one.

Qinglong chose to advance her cultivation level in another world simply because, as a demon, she was naturally rejected by this world, making it an unavoidable choice.

In short, after the second divination was completed, Qu Jianlei had no other thoughts and could only let Duo Gan take a gamble.

He kept this divination very secret, even from Jing Yuexin. At this moment, he really didn't dare to put any psychological pressure on the two of them.

In fact, Boss Jing was also waiting for him to do the divination, because she felt that she was almost there too.

As a result, Jing Yuexin's probability of breaking through to the body was only slightly higher than Duo Gan's, at 17%!

This still includes the additional benefits from external items such as Yuan and Azure Dragon essence blood.

What troubled Qu Jianlei was that Jing Yuexin was determined not to use the core of the tree root and not to be imbued with the aura of creation.

Because her goal was to distract herself, she was determined to stay with Boss Qu until the very end, otherwise she would rather perish before she could leave her body!

Actually, if you try to break through the distraction barrier, it will be even more difficult to succeed! Qu Jianlei really wanted to say something like, "At that time, you'll still live to be six thousand."
