Chapter 2592 Confinement
The human-faced wasp knew very well that killing a distracted person would be difficult.

Therefore, in a battle against a Divine Lord, the most sensible choice is to try to severely damage the opponent; there is no need to be overly ambitious.

However, precisely because of this, it deliberately went against the grain, only splitting off a small portion of its main body to escape.

Its main strategy is to turn around and try to fight head-on, so as not to let the opponent take the opportunity to deplete its resources.

In short, the opponent will definitely anticipate its reaction before launching a sneak attack, and it doesn't mind anticipating the opponent's prediction!
The human-faced bee didn't see anything wrong with its choice—the whole chain of logic was perfectly logical.

If the other party is so stupid that they can't even think of this, then so be it. In any case, we have to try to understand it before we can get to the point.

The human-faced bee has clear logic and has thought of everything, truly deserving of its level of mental focus.

However, it overlooked one crucial point—its opponent wasn't afraid to confront it head-on; on the contrary, they were eagerly anticipating it!

One can pay tribute to a quote from Earth: "Weakness and ignorance are not obstacles to survival; arrogance is."

However, it's not entirely its fault. After all, even if one of those three phantoms manages to escape, it's not a complete loss; at least they can quickly make a comeback.

Seeing it rush back again, even True Venerable Xiwu was a little surprised, "Huh, a dignified Nascent Soul, so immune to illusions?"

I am indeed terrifyingly strong!
When 70% of its true form was enveloped by layers of netting, the black and white vortex in that evil eye began to slowly accelerate.

When Qu Jianlei first used the method of birth and death, he did not exert his full strength.

Firstly, I was worried that using my full strength would scare the opponent away, and secondly... the Life and Death Divine Power really consumed too much energy!
He uses the power of time, part of which allows him to reduce his own energy consumption by absorbing the core of the world.

However, birth and death... make it difficult to utilize this treasure.

If the core of the world is not lacking in the concept of birth and death, then why would it be called a world? However, he is not proficient in the supernatural power of birth and death!

Time is no easier to control than birth and death, yet by sheer chance, he unleashed "Moment of Eternity" at the Nascent Soul stage.

Therefore, the power of time can be compensated for by the core of the world, but birth and death... he has not yet fully mastered it.

He had only used this supernatural power twice in total—he would never have used it even once if he hadn't been forced to!
Getting back to the point, once he was certain that his opponent was trapped and couldn't afford to hide and waste energy, he began to exert all his strength.

Then, the human-faced bee was completely shocked. "Great Human, do I have a grudge against you?"

“Ignore it,” Han Li said decisively. “Any communication with it could lead to a significant causal event.”

"I don't need to bother with it," Qu Jianlei smiled dismissively. "Whether we have a grudge or not... is that even a question?"

Even setting aside ethnic conflicts, Qu Zhenzun is one of the five people and enjoys the lion's share of the revenue from the interdimensional management fees.

The attacks by these human-faced bees on cultivators have seriously affected the speed at which cultivators develop other worlds.

Qu Zhenzun's profits have been greatly affected, without a doubt.

Cutting off someone's livelihood is like killing their parents; that alone is an immense hatred. And now they're saying there's no hatred...

There must be some reason behind this, but Qu Jianlei wasn't interested in knowing—it was better to just avoid the pitfall altogether.

Jin Ge was concerned about something else: "They escaped... an illusory figure escaped, about one-tenth of their true strength!"

The spider's figure flickered twice. "I... am chasing it, don't be afraid!"

"You've worked hard," Qu Jianlei glanced at it and said calmly, "Just do your best, don't push yourself too hard, or you'll be humiliated!"

In terms of stealth skills, even a spider can't compare to a human-faced bee; chasing after it now would be futile.

Strictly speaking, being able to leave 90% of the opponent's original body in this battle is already quite satisfactory.

Qingkong was considering something else entirely. "True Master Qu, I have a feeling... that your divine power is subject to birth and death, isn't it?"

When Qu Jianlei first used the Life and Death Technique, he was the only one of the Five True Venerables present who was not there, so he was not very sure.

“It’s about birth and death,” Han Li answered decisively. “If you have any questions, just say so.”

"It feels a bit slow," the Grand Protector wasn't one to fuss. "Killing the enemy will take at least a month or two, won't it?"

It was indeed his first time witnessing birth and death, but that didn't affect his analysis of the situation; in fact, he was very strong in this regard.

"This is good enough!" Jin Ge couldn't stand it anymore. "He's just a True Venerable!"

"The True Lord opened his eyes, then closed them again... and the Great Lord opposite him was dead. Do you think that makes sense?"

Upon hearing this, True Venerable Xiwu couldn't help but nod slightly, "Divine power doesn't mean instant kill, anyway, a month or two isn't long!"

She really rarely spoke, let alone spoke up for Qianxiu.

"Does the Great Protector's colorful butterfly want to unleash its power?" Qu Jianlei smiled slightly.

Currently, only the Life and Death Divine Power of the Human-Faced Bee can draw its life force, but the Great Protector's Colorful Butterfly is also drawing its source essence.

So his problem is normal, but while he was laughing, a black and white yin-yang symbol was rotating in his right eye.

The combination of these two features on one face feels somewhat eerie.

“It can’t unleash its power,” Qingkong Zhenzun shook his head. “My butterfly is far from being able to keep up with birth and death!”

"What I mean is, let's eliminate the enemy as soon as possible, so that things don't get complicated and everyone can hold on a lot."

That's the truth. The other party slipped away as part of their main body. This wasn't a clone; it was a proper cut-off of the main body!

Once the main body escapes, there are too many things that can be done. A month or two is indeed enough time for many changes to occur.

The second point is also very important: everyone really worked hard.

Don't think that only Qu Jianlei, who's unleashing a barrage of attacks, is busy. Han Li's arena, Jin Ge and the spider's web, Qing Kong's butterflies...

Thanks to the efforts of the four of them, Qu Zhenzun was able to unleash the Life and Death Technique at his own pace; otherwise, he would have been unable to immobilize his opponent at all!
To be honest, True Venerables are good at protracted battles. Once they want to do something, it's no big deal for them to keep working for three to five hundred years without rest or sleep!
The problem is that the one currently under confinement is a True Lord!
If there is even the slightest mishap, this True Lord might suddenly launch an attack, and the consequences... no one can bear them.

“It won’t be quick,” Qu Jianlei answered decisively. “I’ll have to trouble everyone to do this, as my life force is running out!”

"Oh, not many left..." Several True Venerables snorted softly, looked at each other, and then fell silent.

Just then, a furious roar rang out; it was the imprisoned human-faced bee that had unleashed its power, "The Divine Power of Life and Death, is it? Very well!"

"Just go ahead and attack, see if I'm scared... The real body has already escaped. I'm a little curious, who will be more afraid?"

As it was muttering to itself, the spider sent out its divine sense, "The taboo of distraction, I told you about it, didn't I?"

It was still the same consciousness of a lower-level deity, but at this moment, it was being stated with unusual clarity.

"That's because you're afraid of humans!" the human-faced bee roared. "I'm not afraid, and I don't care about taboos... We are gods!"

The two were arguing, but Han Li glanced at Qu Jianlei and asked, "Is this... stalling for time?"

“I’m not sure either,” Qu Jianlei sighed inwardly, “but there’s not much I can do. I’d like to hear some gossip though.”

"You really have a lot of free time," Han Li muttered, then fell silent.

"This is really... incredibly bold!" Qu Jianlei couldn't help but mutter to himself. "I thought you still had a trump card to eliminate my distraction."

However, he had no better options at the moment, and waiting was the best choice.

We can only hope that nothing else goes wrong during this period.

Otherwise, he would have to resort to other means, and it's hard to say whether he could hurt others, and he himself might not be able to withstand it.

After a brief stalemate, Qu Jianlei first called to Qingkong Zhenzun to go to the camp to find someone to come and meet them.

Meanwhile, the spider had already disappeared into the starry sky—it didn't really like contact with the outside world.

The Great Protector did not refuse, but at the same time, he also needed to control the butterfly to absorb the other party's source essence, so he could only send a clone back.

Anyway, a clone can represent him, so it's pretty much the same.

No sooner had the clone left than a large number of tree race members arrived, including dozens of Nascent Soul Tree Race members.

Two of the Nascent Soul Trees clearly carried the aura of the Nascent Soul Mother Tree.

However, after the many tree-like beings arrived, they took one look from afar, turned around and flew away, their branches shaking off in mid-air.

There was no other way but to run; there were five powerful figures ahead of us!

Once upon a time, for the Tree Clan, the Mother Tree was the sky, the entire world.

Back then, when Qu Jianlei's team wanted to destroy a mother tree, they had to plan everything out and then quietly approach and release the flawed spirit.

Back then, each of them could hold up a whole sky, and each one seemed so unattainable.

But now... it's still the same; even when one's body is separated from the body, one can still maintain a powerful force.

However, Qu Jianlei has reached the level of a True Venerable, and what he comes into contact with and needs to deal with are all matters of True Venerables.

But for these tree-like beings, seeing the former digital phantom would surely send them swarming forward, but before them... were five True Venerables!

Even in the world of the True Venerables, such a grand occasion is extremely rare.

So don't say that the Tree Clan's fearlessness is fake; these blockheads are genuinely unafraid of death.

It's actually quite unusual for someone like Feng Yiwang, a tree traitor, to be so cunning, but that guy... does have his own reasons.

Anyway, when these tree-people saw the five true masters of the human race, they turned around and ran away in a flash, and went back to urge the mother tree to move.

There's no way to stay here anymore. Even the strongest mother tree, who dares to fight two, three... or even five?

About seven or eight days later, the camp sent reinforcements, including two True Venerables.

These two were mentally prepared when they arrived... Although it's called a rescue, we're actually here to protect the Dharma.

If we can ensure the safety of the Great Protector, Qu Zhenzun, Hanli Zhenzun, and others as much as possible, then we will have accomplished our mission!

The human-faced bees that participated in exterminating the divided spirits are not something we can consider.

As for the defeat and death of Qu Zhenzun and others... the Great Protector said that such a possibility does not exist.

So let's hope that this situation never happens.
