Recruit black physique to start practice in wasteland

Chapter 2884 Reconciliation
After a while, Möbius's consciousness sent out a message, and Qu Jianlei's consciousness replied, "I'm already doing it."

His thoughts were still a bit hazy, but he could basically understand what was being said.

“I knew it,” the man with the head raised an eyebrow, “this little guy’s brain is just as sharp as his!”

"We can use the power of the Dao Monument to launch an attack!" The Möbius strip was truly ruthless. "I know you possess second-tier time magic!"

With the help of the Dao Stele... the figure inside could only smile bitterly. Wasn't it already damaged fast enough?

However, the old woman's guess was not wrong; he could indeed borrow the power of the Dao Stele now.

This is because he continuously sends out life force, and at the same time, he is inside the other person's body, so the two establish a certain communication.

Another aspect is the gift from the ancestral witches. Witch cultivators do indeed have unique insights into the energy transformation between "vessels" and "body".

The ability of shamans to harness the power of heaven and earth stems from their understanding and application of these rules.

But the key problem is that the already damaged joint of the stele is about to give way!
The stele has been integrated; it's not that the two halves are having a disagreement, but rather... there is physical damage, which objectively exists!
In this situation, if he were to invoke the power of the Yunzi Stele, wouldn't that only make matters worse?
In fact, just as he said, he had already imbued the Dao Stele with the power of time to resist the invasion of blood rain on the rules of time.

He accomplished this entirely on his own, and the effect... was only slightly better than nothing.

The intermediate-level time rules are basically enough, but the key issue is that my own strength is too weak!
It was precisely because he effectively protected the Dao Stele that communication between the two was smoother—even though this guy's spirituality was somewhat lacking.

The characteristics of the time rule do indeed allow for both offense and defense, but the problem is that with his limited strength, how could he possibly be qualified to even think about attacking?

"Huh?" After an unknown amount of time, the human head let out a soft exclamation and looked at the Creation Compass in the sky.

The compass, with a diameter of 100,000 kilometers, had been largely irrelevant for a long time, not participating in any offensive or defensive operations.

However, no one present blamed it for slacking off.

As everyone knows, Qu Zhenzun's many perceptions and predictions are enhanced by it.

At this moment, Thunderbolt True Lord was a little puzzled, "Is it Kan Water? You really haven't given up your evil intentions!"

"Kan Shui... hasn't left?" Kong Yu Zhenjun was the first to wonder.

He and Kan Shui both follow the path of water. Although their relationship is somewhat strained, their mutual understanding far surpasses that of others.

He carefully examined himself. "Nothing's wrong. Senior Thunderbolt, what's going on?"

“The compass reading is a bit off,” the woman with the human head frowned slightly. “If it’s not Kan Shui, then who could it be?”

"Could it be Qu Zhenzun?" This thought popped into the minds of many Zhenzun.

Even Luo Fu and Jing Yuexin couldn't help but exchange a glance: Is it really him?

If it's Boss Qu, it means that he still has the energy to do things right now!
However, they both saw a hint of confusion in each other's eyes.

It couldn't possibly be him. How could the communication between the True Venerable and the Compass be kept secret from all the True Lords?
"Let's quickly calculate the next steps," the Möbius strip said leisurely.

There is indeed no danger to everyone now, but looking at the almost solidified blood-red color outside, it is truly a great calamity that is about to occur.

However, not long after, True Lord Qiaoqi let out a soft exclamation, "The compass...moved?"

His perception was indeed quite strong, and his field of vision was wide enough that the compass did indeed move slightly.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the compass moved again after a few breaths.

Before anyone could comment, the enormous compass slowly began to move, drifting towards the other side of the stele.

The compass has a diameter of 100,000 kilometers, while the stele is over 1 billion kilometers high. The former is insignificant compared to the latter.

However, as the compass moved, it slowly grew larger, eventually reaching a distance of approximately 50 million kilometers.

If scaled down proportionally, it would be equivalent to a road stele over a meter tall facing a compass five centimeters in diameter.

The compass slowly approached the stele, as if sneaking around, or perhaps reluctantly.

"These two... can fight together?" True Monarch Qingxia looked at Han Li in astonishment. "Have you seen them before?"

“No,” the handsome young man shook his head blankly, “I’ve seen them appear at the same time before, but never like this… rushing together!”

Then she glanced at Luo Fu and Jing Yuexin, "What about you two?"

Both women shook their heads in unison, with Jing Zhenzun adding, "We usually keep our distance."

"Could it be that he's trying to... snag a bargain?" Wen Shi Zhenjun couldn't help but mutter to himself.

If the stele cannot withstand the clear weather and collapses with a crash...

Fortunately, he only guessed in secret and did not say it out loud, otherwise his image would never be restored for millions of years to come!
In fact, he wasn't the only one who felt the same way!
Seven Leaves True Lord frowned and said, "This sneaky behavior feels a bit unethical... Hmm?"

Before he could finish speaking, the Creation Compass suddenly accelerated and crashed into the massive Dao Stele.

At that moment, it seemed to have made some kind of decision...

Although it was described as a collision, the speed wasn't actually very fast; it wasn't at least not at the level of a True Lord who could "travel billions of miles with a single thought."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the compass struck the stele at a relatively high speed!

Moreover, it struck the junction of the two stone tablets.

"Ah, this..." The cultivators were all bewildered: What happened?
“Betrayal…?” Luo Fu’s lips twitched, and she spoke with a dark face.

The martial arts world is full of fighting and killing, and bloodshed, but it is never short of backstabbing!
"No!" Jing Yuexin answered decisively, "It's embedded!"

Sure enough, the compass struck the stele and, instead of stopping, began to embed itself deeply into it!

Right in the center of the stele, between the first and second horizontal strokes of the character "运" (yun), the compass is deeply embedded.

"Isn't this betrayal?" The bright-eyed girl's eyes widened in anger. "They're severely damaging the Dao Stele! I can't stand by and watch! Sister, don't stop me!"

"Is it possible... that it's trying to help mend the Dao Stele?" Jing Yuexin believed that some things were not coincidences.

"It's similar to an adhesive?"

This is not conjecture. The compass crashed into it and embedded itself, but the Dao stele did not budge. You must know that Qu Zhenzun was inside its body at this moment!

"Mending it!" Luo Fu nodded in sudden realization. "I understand now, we need to mend the stele. Senior brother, you truly have a genius idea!"

"But..." Jing Yuexin blinked twice, "What is a metal clamp?"

There's nothing she can do about it; that's the tragedy of coming from a tech background. She only knows about adhesives, not metal clamps!

"Mending pots and pans, mending porcelain!" Many cultivators from the mystical side know this stuff. "No claws, but it's pretty much the same!"

The man's face lit up with excitement. "Beautiful! Absolutely stunning! How come I didn't think of that?"

"Don't even mention it, I didn't expect it either," the young woman replied sullenly.

"I've lived for tens of thousands of years and I've heard of things like mending metal, but I never thought there was such a thing as a mending stone tablet?"

"Holy crap, this is absolutely amazing..." Nine Screen True Monarch was both amused and exasperated.

He had lived for over ten thousand years, and for a moment, he felt as if he had wasted so many years of his life.

Outside the core area, the solidified blood rain continued to writhe, but it did nothing to dampen the joyful atmosphere inside.

No one can be certain that the mended stele will be able to withstand the collapse of the heavens.

However, this did not dampen the joyful atmosphere, because everyone had been regretting that the stele itself was broken!

The power that a well-preserved stele can unleash... it's something to look forward to!

Moreover, no one expected that using the compass of creation as a mending tool—how many people would actually do something so wasteful?
Looking at the delighted crowd, Jing Yuexin felt even more puzzled and could only whisper, "Is mending... better than gluing?"

“These are… two different approaches,” Luo Fu could only patiently explain once.

After saying that, she sighed, "The boss once said that high-end ingredients often only require the simplest cooking methods..."

"But who would have thought that such a high-end magical artifact only requires the simplest processing method?"

“This…” Jing Yuexin hesitated for a moment, then sighed softly, “When the eldest brother was young, life was… not easy!”

"Stop right there!" a muffled divine sense came through. "I, well, I currently have no other choice!"

Can we please stop talking about scavenging? Is it something to be proud of?

"Hey, Senior Brother?" A happy smile appeared on the bright-eyed girl's face. "Is this a sure thing?"

Qu Zhenzun's divine sense did not answer—he was busy calming down the Creation Compass!

However, it didn't matter that he didn't answer. Jing Zhenzun nodded very decisively, "Okay, it seems like it's settled."

“That’s right,” Luo Fu naturally knew how to play along, and she nodded readily. “She didn’t deny it because she didn’t want to mislead us.”

There is a clear gap in this logical chain: Qu Zhenzun did not give a definite answer either!
However, this can be explained by common sense—if things are stable, there's no need to rush to confirm them; if things are unstable, we absolutely cannot mislead everyone.

Qu Zhenzun has difficulty communicating with the outside world, but in case of an emergency, he can still force a conversation!

However, it wasn't a perfect closed loop after all, and Ren Tou said with a wry smile, "You two little guys... are messing around!"

Nine Screens True Lord did not take their little thoughts to heart—although they were somewhat subjective, they were not lying and even boosted everyone's confidence.

His mind was elsewhere; he stared at the compass embedded in the stele, looking puzzled. "How... how did this happen?"

“The little tune is inside the stele,” the young woman replied leisurely. “Although the Yunzi stele is sturdy, it is not impossible to communicate with it.”

There is no doubt that whether it is inlaid or mended, it will damage the monument!
Without the consent of the Daobei (a type of ancient Chinese monument), or at least its tolerance, the compass's attempt to operate in this way is simply a pipe dream.

“I was pondering this compass,” Jiu Ping said, looking puzzled. “How…why would it agree?”
