Recruit black physique to start practice in wasteland

Chapter 2565 Seven-Colored Lightning
The people from the Realm of All Things couldn't find Qu Jianlei, so they came to the Lingyun Sect.

However, the rules of creation cannot be entrusted to Lingyun to collect. If this behemoth were to seize it, Xiaoyou would have to ask his master to come out.

Qu Jianlei and Han Li went to the agreed location, where Baiqiao's clone and Han Weizhen were waiting.

Han Li was somewhat surprised to see this. "Huh, Xiao You didn't come?"

"She is still collecting the rules of creation," Han Weizhenzun replied calmly. "It's quite difficult, so I only brought one of them this time."

The rules of creation are truly so rare that even a disciple of a True Lord could only produce one in a hurry.

"Tsk," Han Li clicked his tongue, glanced at Qu Jianlei, and helplessly spread his hands, "It's better than nothing."

He was well aware of the needs of the Creation Compass, and in the current situation, it might come in handy at any time.

Han Weizhen was quite old, and seeing his attitude, he couldn't help but ask, "Won't it be long? Are you in a hurry?"

“One of them is not bad,” Qu Jianlei said calmly. “By the way, don’t interfere with what I’m dealing with.”

The cultivators of the Myriad Realms are still grappling with the matter of Qu Zhenzun's "killing of prisoners".

Although the main conflict at present is between the Business Alliance and Houde, the True Venerable of All Things is clearly biased in this matter.

"Lin He has joined the Merchant Alliance," Han Weizhen said expressionlessly. "Personally, I don't think he has any necessary connection with the myriad things."

"Just my personal opinion?" A cold glint flashed in Qu Jianlei's eyes. "Then I won't hold back against the others."

He wasn't entirely sure about the relationship between Han Wei and Xiao You, but the fact that Han Wei was able to bring such a valuable treasure as the Rules of Creation meant that they at least had a good personal relationship.

He was content with the other party's response; at least he hadn't offended another great king.

He was thoroughly fed up with those fools in the world of all things. They couldn't see the obvious cause-and-effect relationship, yet they insisted on standing up for their fellow villagers.

"This..." Han Wei frowned, thought for a moment before speaking, "A mere fifth-order spiritual vein, Qu Zhenzun, you..."

"Cough cough," Baiqiao's clone coughed heavily twice, "You're not so great, I'm still here."

"A sixth-order spiritual vein, True Venerable Xiaoyou is serious," Han Wei ignored him and finished speaking.

However, he then changed the subject, "These True Venerables of All Things... I'll go and try to persuade them. Give me half a month."

Suddenly, Han Li spoke up, "If the two of us really go to the Realm of All Things, how will Xiao You treat the Hundred Friends Merchant Alliance?"

"The two of you?" Han Weizhen glanced at him and replied calmly, "The Merchant Alliance... we'll just have to wait for them to come and apologize."

"You're bragging!" Han Li said without hesitation. "If the Great Lord were really that free, he would have gone to the Maiden Starfield to rescue her long ago."

Upon hearing this, Baiqiao winked and said, "I mean, is it so hard not to court death?"
Han Weizhen didn't take these words to heart, and instead said frankly, "At the very least, they will definitely stay far away."

“I understand,” Han Li nodded. “So your two families aren’t the same thing.”

He wasn't actually courting death; he just wanted to figure out what the True Lord behind Xiao You's attitude was towards the Hundred Friends Merchant Alliance.

However, if it involves the Great Khan, and he were to ask directly, the Great Khan would definitely not answer easily.

"I'm not entirely sure either," Han Wei shook his head and said calmly, "It's just that we haven't had much contact with each other."

Actually, his words were just a cover-up. His earlier statement that he wanted to persuade the cultivators of all things was already a clear indication of his stance.

Qu Jianlei and Han Li didn't say anything more. They exchanged a glance and then suddenly disappeared.

Baiqiao gave Han Wei a cold look. "I'll let you off this time, but if you dare to provoke me like this again, don't even think about going back to Wanwu!"

Poaching talent isn't wrong, but poaching talent in front of him, the Grand Steward of Lingyun—where do you place Lingyun in your eyes?

“It’s no use telling me this,” Han Wei replied calmly. “I’m just a messenger. What’s the point of taking it so seriously?”

"Hmph," Baiqiao snorted coldly, and his figure disappeared...

Half a month later, the cultivators in the Realm of All Things suddenly fell silent, and no one talked about True Venerable Lin He anymore.

Han Li had already sent four dust particles to the vicinity of the enemy camp: two were his divine sense particles, and one each for Jin Ge and Qu Zhenzun.

They observed very carefully because it was really difficult to lie in wait nearby.

They have clearly felt the changes in the Realm of All Things, and Qu Jianlei said that everyone should be more vigilant in the near future.

The business alliance, having suddenly lost a key supporter, is likely to launch some drastic actions.

Venting anger is only a secondary factor; the most important thing is to boost morale, right?
Jin Ge told Bai Qiao about Qu Jianlei's judgment, and Bai Qiao said it made a lot of sense and he would make proper arrangements.

Some people are just meant to be in charge; they can be very shrewd when it comes to scheming, but they're also incredibly good at providing emotional value.

The two even agreed on a few code words to convey simple information through divination.

However, this agreement can only be fulfilled this time, because it requires the cooperation of more than one True Venerable.

Five days later, Jin Ge suddenly raised his eyebrows and said, "Bu Cai, Xuan Yi, and Bai Qiao... this order has begun?"

"But the palace didn't respond," Qu Jianlei muttered. "Was your calculation in the correct order?"

"How could I be wrong?" Jin Ge snorted. "Without a doubt, the third sneak attack has begun."

“Go to the rescue,” Qu Jianlei said calmly, “to create a false impression.”

"Why me?" Jin Ge said unhappily. "No, I want to start this operation with both of you."

"Because you're not good at concealing your presence," Han Li said calmly. "Your rescue mission was just your true self."

"This is outrageous!" Jin Ge was furious. "I want to join in too!"

"You go first, no one's stopping you," Qu Jianlei said in a deep voice, "Hurry up, or we'll be late..."

"Hmm," Jin Ge hummed softly, and the next moment, he vanished without a trace.

"It really is true, the palace hasn't moved," Han Li sighed softly. "It was indeed a distraction tactic. Shall we fight?"

“Of course,” Qu Jianlei nodded slightly, “You break through the palace, and I will protect you.”

"This is nothing..." Han Li scoffed. "Let's go!"

The next moment, in the void, outside the four camps, a spatial fluctuation occurred, and two figures suddenly appeared.

The two figures were both over a hundred kilometers tall, their features indistinct and unclear.

One of the figures raised a hand and pointed, sending a ball of seven-colored light swiftly towards the palace.

Strictly speaking, describing it as a ball of light is not quite appropriate; it was more like a bolt of lightning, a seven-colored lightning bolt, which struck the palace in an instant.

The other figure let out a soft sigh, the sound of which was both resentful and somewhat grating.

Fortunately, it was much less jarring than Song Zhenzun's "Burning the Qin".

However, the people in the four camps all felt a sense of powerlessness—as if all their strength had been drained away in an instant.

"Holy crap!" someone in the Myriad Realms camp couldn't help but shout, "This is... this is... this is... the era of True Venerable Xiaoyou!"

"Gentlemen, this matter has nothing to do with you," the one who used the Time-Binding Technique snorted lightly, "I'm only targeting the Merchant Alliance!"

This time, his work wasn't exactly a masterpiece. He borrowed the artistic conception from Xiaoyou, but it was merely a rough imitation, only capturing the form.

But that's enough; his intention was merely to issue a warning.

"Holy crap, it's Qu Zhenzun!" someone recognized him. "He's finally come out!"

The business alliance has been claiming that they were wronged, and that they were not afraid of being found out by Qu Zhenzun when they finally retaliated.

What serves as evidence is that, for so long, no matter how much the Business Alliance provoked Houde, Qu Zhenzun has never shown up.

At this moment, this person finally appeared, and made such a big fuss right away.

However, many people were a little confused when they heard this. Xiaoyou Zhenzun... who is that? How could this also be the Years?
Of the four camps' True Venerables, only a few people knew of this one, who had wanted to challenge True Venerable Qu back then.

At the same time, seven-colored lightning exploded on the palace.

The seven-colored light band flickered and drifted incessantly, circling the palace without dissipating.

Someone sighed and shook their head, "Heh, it's useless..."

There are people in the Three Realms who are on good terms with the Merchant Alliance, and they know that this palace cannot be broken by power that allows one to leave the body.

It is said that this was a game created on a whim by a certain emperor, who wanted to prove that he could create treasures that far surpass innate spiritual treasures.

However, the palace's effects don't seem to be much stronger than those of a primordial spiritual treasure. The key difference is that it lacks spiritual energy and requires a spirit to be configured.

However, the members of the Merchant Alliance said that this thing had countless uses and they wouldn't trade it for a primordial spiritual treasure.

Now it seems that this is indeed the case.

There was no shortage of true masters at the scene, and everyone could feel that the seven-colored lightning was quite remarkable.

The power contained within it should have already exceeded the attack power of leaving the body.

But strangely, the lightning circled the palace, yet it could not break through it for a long time.

The intensity of the confrontation between the two sides is palpable to everyone.

However, the energy fluctuations were not very strong, and the other three camps were basically unaffected.

This feeling is strange, as if the battle between the two is not limited to this world.

An even fiercer battle seems to be taking place in another space... or perhaps, in another dimension.

Someone called out to their companion, "Didn't you cultivate the power to dispel illusions? This... their main battlefield isn't here, is it?"

"I don't want to die!" another True Venerable replied coldly. "I can only break free from my illusions and leave my body; I don't want to be the one being buried!"

His combat strength wasn't particularly strong, but his ability to break through illusions had its own unique uses, and he intended to rely on it to explore other worlds.

Unfortunately... there were no spots available, so I couldn't go.

It's not that his supernatural powers are useless, nor is it related to his slightly weaker combat strength. The key issue is that his supernatural powers are self-serving and not beneficial to others.

He's better at spotting opportunities than others, but... will he definitely tell everyone?
If the number of True Venerables were not limited, I believe many people would be willing to team up with him, but unfortunately things did not turn out that way.

He's currently guarding this place, and incidentally helping people appraise some uncertain treasures, which... is quite a good fit for his profession.
