Chapter 2036: Show off
Driven by Zhu Jiayi, the palm-sized Wood Shield flew into the air and instantly turned into a large shield more than ten meters high and nearly four meters wide.
What shocked San Duo True Person was that the thickness of Wood Shield was also close to two meters. "So thick?"
Zhu Jiayi did not answer his words, but felt it carefully again.
Not far away, there were the patrolling disciples of the Zhu Family. They sensed something strange in the atmosphere here and rushed over in a hurry.
When they saw Second Ancestor and San Duo True Person standing there, they raised their hands to apologize and then retreated silently.
"Weird," Zhu Jiayi narrowed his eyes and muttered softly, "What kind of foot is this?"
Then he asked San Duo True Person to attack Wood Shield.
San Duo True Person pulled out a sharp long sword and slashed it hard at Wood Shield.
The grade of this long sword is already Golden Core Realm high-level, but it is not his strongest attack. The name of Sanduo is really well-deserved.
Because he was worried about damaging Wood Shield too hard, he deliberately chose a corner, but he struck with all his strength.
After all, it is a magic weapon that can withstand a blow from the Nascent Soul Realm. It should be able to withstand it, right? As expected, he managed to hold on, leaving a shallow sword mark where the long sword struck.
"Defense... is indeed pretty good," San Duo True Person Diandian said. Withstand Nascent Soul Realm's blow, it shouldn't be a big problem.
But then, he was shocked to find that Second Ancestor still looked thoughtful, and couldn't help but ask, "Any questions?"
Zhu Jiayi pondered for a few seconds before whispering softly, "No... it's a bit alien."
The alien species mentioned by Cultivator is a general term, covering a wide range, "Second Ancestor, what do you think?"
Zhu Jiayi's face was a little solemn, "It feels like it's from Other-dimensional Creature... the possibility is not small."
In fact, he had some other guesses, but he couldn't say them out rashly.
Golden Core Realm, his ability to handle things is really poor.
However, even so, San Duo True Person was stunned when he heard, "Alien Race trees...Nascent Soul Realm?"
"It must be Nascent Soul Realm," Zhu Jiayi Diandian said, and couldn't help but comment, "This kind of weapon refining mainly relies on materials!"
It can be seen that his evaluation of Red Leaf Ridge's weapon refining level is really not high, and he can only say the word "waste".
However, San Duo True Person was still immersed in the surprise just now, "Nascent Soul Realm did they kill Alien Race trees?"
"This possibility... objectively exists," Zhu Jiayi's words were very cautious.
After thinking about it, he spoke again, "Aren't you familiar with the Green Screen Mountain Li Family's direct relatives? Go show off."
"Go and show off..." San Duo True Person did not reject this order. His title of Sanduo was obtained by showing off.
But obviously, he sensed that Second Ancestor had other intentions, "You are suspicious..."
"I'm not sure." Although Zhu Jiayi is Zhu Family's think tank, he is not omniscient and omnipotent after all. "It's best to have someone to discuss it."
"By the way, you got these three pieces Wood Shield. How many spiritual stones did you spend?"
"No, no!" San Duo True Person hesitated and replied, "True Immortal gave me a treasure, how dare I talk about money?"
"Confused!" Zhu Jiayi snorted, then flicked his sleeves, "Remember to take stock of your family property!"
San Duo True Person's work efficiency is still very high. Within a few days, he took several of his disciples to visit Emerald Screen Mountain.
Just as Li Family got Nascent Soul Realm Sword Casket's enthusiasm, he used some tricks to watch and feel Sword Casket up close.
In order to express his gratitude, he invited several familiar Li Family children to eat and drink.
When he was half drunk, he talked about the current variables in Sealing Grand Array and the dangers of the cultivators patrolling, and he showed off the Wood Shield.
He did these things flawlessly - it was originally a true performance.
"Nascent Soul Realm-level defensive magic weapon..." Li Family's disciples were particularly jealous. After all, the highest cultivation level among those present was only Golden Core Realm.
So some Golden Core Realm disciples expressed that they really wanted to see the defensive capabilities.
San Duo True Person said that the refining method of Wood Shield is average, and I hope everyone will be merciful when testing it.
This won't be a big problem. Although a group of bad friends usually joke around and don't take it seriously, these are extraordinary times.
Everyone tried it out a few times in the Li Family's martial arts arena and found that Wood Shield's defense was really good.
One of them, Golden Core Realm, who is good at refining weapons, also expressed the same emotion, "This is purely because the materials are good, it's a bit wasteful!"
"Huh?" A soft huh came, and an old man in his sixties suddenly appeared outside the martial arts arena.
The old man had a plain appearance and ordinary clothes, but several Li Family disciples were all surprised, and then bowed deeply.
They all said in unison, "I've seen Old Ancestor Handong."
The person who came was none other than Li Family, another Nascent Soul Realm Old Ancestor Li Handong. He raised his hand and directly took the big shield into his hand.
He looked at Wood Shield carefully, felt it with his spiritual consciousness, and then looked at San Duo True Person.
"My little friend, where did you get this treasure?"
He vaguely felt the aura of Otherworld, and was surprised, so he hurried over - after all, there was something strange about Sealing Grand Array.
Although the breath on Wood Shield was extremely weak, he lived long enough to notice the abnormality.
As for the refining techniques, he was not interested in caring about it at all. The material used was the key point.
Li Handong also knew that the owner of the magic weapon was a good friend of the clan members, so he didn't go out to ask questions.
San Duo True Person first bowed deeply, "I have seen Old Ancestor. Where is this treasure from? You want to ask me Zhu Family Second Ancestor."
"It turns out to be Zhu Family..." Li Handong nodded slightly, threw Wood Shield back, and then disappeared in a flash.
At the same time, he sent out a spiritual consciousness, "Yu Ren, come here, I have something to do..."
Half a day later, Li Yuren came to see San Duo True Person.
He also took the Wood Shield and played with it for a while, then said in a deep voice, "Take me to see your Second Ancestor."
This matter was originally out of his control, and his eyesight was not very good, but he is the rookie that Li Family is currently supporting.
Emerald Screen Mountain intends to increase his knowledge, connections and influence, so most of the external affairs are left to him.
Two days later, Li Yuren met Zhu Jiayi next to Jade Lake.
He asked straight to the point, "I dare to ask my friend, where does the Wood Shield that little friend Nian Di holds come from?"
Zhu Jiayi asked instead, "Did your Li Family and Old Ancestor Handong also sense something abnormal?"
"This material comes from Alien Race of Otherworld," Li Yuren said with certainty, and Old Ancestor Handong made this very clear.
However, he and Li Handong are more concerned about other things, "But Sealing Grand Array's income outside of that?"
"That's not true," Zhu Jiayi shook his head and replied casually, "It was your Emerald Screen Mountain forces that gave it to him."
"Emerald Screen Mountain's subordinate..." Li Yuren was startled for a moment, then reacted, "Red Leaf Ridge?"
"Are you kidding? How dare Emerald Screen Mountain take them under his command... are they really them?"
Zhu Jiayi heard this and Diandian nodded, "Nian Di is thick-skinned and insists on asking for something for self-defense. Fellow Daoist Qu actually loves and protects this junior."
"If it's them, it wouldn't be surprising," Li Yuren thought while nodding slightly.
Then he said thoughtfully, "Jiayi Old Ancestor, why don't you and I go together?"
"I won't go to save you the inconvenience of talking," Zhu Jiayi slowly shook his head, "After all, Otherworld is involved."
Li Yuren also knew in his heart that the other party had plans just in case.
If Red Leaf Ridge's group is Alien Race's spies, and Zhu Jiayi doesn't go, at least the insiders will not be wiped out.
Although this possibility is almost non-existent, when Tiger-Man invaded in the past, weirder things happened...
Dongsheng cultivators have been preparing for war for hundreds of years, and they still have this vigilance.
Li Yuren smiled nonchalantly, "They shouldn't be that kind of people, but fellow Daoists are just waiting for my news."
One day later, he came to Red Leaf Ridge again. After seeing Qu Jianlei, he couldn't help but complain.
"I think it's necessary to move to your place. Do you still have time to practice Abode?"
"You talk strangely," Qu Jianlei replied nonchalantly, "It's because you can't sit still."
"There is no free Abode, and it's not convenient... What's the reason for coming here this time?"
Li Yuren stared at him and asked, "It's inconvenient, you mean Alien Race trees?"
"Huh?" Qu Jianlei turned his head and looked at him seriously before smiling nonchalantly, "Did Zhu Family contact you?"
Li Yuren observed him very carefully, but found that the other person's expression was extremely natural and magnanimous.
He spoke seriously, "I hope to know the source of this material... Fellow Daoist, I am serious."
"What's there to say?" Qu Jianlei raised his eyebrows indifferently, "I have hunted this kind of Alien Race before."
Li Yuren looked at him seriously, "I want to know the details and the situation of Sealing Grand Array."
"Sealing Grand Array is none of our business," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "Also, why are you asking me for details?"
This is a bit rude, but it's actually normal. As Cultivator, who can't have some privacy? Not to mention the strength that Red Leaf Ridge is showing now. He is definitely a giant like Eastern Prosperity Continent. How can he not be angry? Li Yuren remained silent for a while before asking, "Besides Sealing Grand Array, isn't this Alien Race?"
It's not that he didn't believe what the other party said, but he had to figure this out.
In order to avoid arousing the other party's resentment, he now starts with the details, slowly and circuitously, and then reaches a conclusion.
Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at him again, "You are really ignorant. First, let me tell you something..."
"This Alien Race is called Tree Race, which comes from Locust Otherworld and is associated with Alien Race Locust."
"Secondly, they can indeed teleport through the void, but we don't know what is going on outside Sealing Grand Array!"
"I understand," Li Yuren really understood this time. No wonder the other party was unhappy.
The trees that were written together were from the Otherworld attack, and they were other people's trophies.
But he had never heard of this Locust World, and he didn't know if the other party had ever experienced a battle.
If not, where did you get the information? "It's Asura World... that kind of Otherworld?"
Chapter 2037: Complaints (Third update, please double the monthly ticket) Regarding Li Yuren's question, Qu Jianlei gave a very straightforward answer, "Yes, it's that kind of Otherworld."
"As for the details of Locust World and how to deal with it... I'm sorry, but you have to figure it out on your own."
Of course Li Yuren knows that this information is not for sale at all, and no matter which influence obtains it, it cannot be shared with outsiders.
Asura regards capturing Otherworld as a bad thing, and Cultivator thinks so too.
Why should outsiders ask for valuable information that someone had to fight life and death to get? At this point, Li Yuren has already believed 99% of it. The key is that he believes that Red Leaf Ridge can really attack Otherworld.
After a pause, he asked again, "Then you gave Wood Shield to the junior Zhu Family without any intention of warning Dongsheng?"
This was also his guess in advance. Even if the person other than Sealing Grand Array was Tree Race, Red Leaf Ridge might not be a traitor.
If such a small probability event really happens, Li Yuren will also think that Red Leaf Ridge gave Wood Shield, which is more likely to be a hint.
"I didn't think much about it," Qu Jianlei replied without hesitation, "Junior Zhu Family came to ask for help, so I brought out something convenient Buduo."
Li Yuren also knew this. On the way, he had already asked Zhu Family about the Golden Core Realm.
Hearing this, he couldn't help but complain, "I, Li Family, am the co-author and an outsider."
"Li Family didn't ask me if I was right?" Qu Jianlei asked casually, "Is it possible that if your family doesn't want it, I have to take the initiative to give it to you?"
"Then I want it now," Li Yuren said without hesitation, "How many more do you have?"
"How much do you plan to ask for?" Qu Jianlei raised his brows. He really kept a lot of Tree Race's remains.
Mainly the empire and Alliance are not interested in the wreckage of Tree Race.
Although the material is good, in the era of Great Navigation, who can use alloy less? I seriously want to use the wreckage of Tree Race to make a battleship, but there are still too many difficulties to overcome.
Therefore, the attitude towards the wreckage there is to destroy it specifically so as not to become a nutrient for other Tree Race.
But Cultivation World is different. The Tree Race wreckage basically has no impact on Cultivator in terms of energy erosion.
When Qu Jianlei was drifting in the void, he also thought of this before trying to refine some Wood Shield magic weapons.
Regardless of whether it can be used or not, it never hurts to have more of this in the team.
As for the skill of refining magic weapons, he didn't need others to complain about it, he himself knew it well.
There is no way, he has not received any weapon refining inheritance, and it is already good to be able to enlarge and shrink the Wood Shield he made.
In any case, Wood Shield he really did a lot, and he didn't even plan to sell it for money at the beginning.
But now someone came to the door, and he also explained the origin of Tree Race, which could be sold to the public and bring back a wave of blood.
"Do you have a lot of this kind of thing?" Li Yuren raised his eyebrows, "How many are there? I want them all!"
"Emerald Screen Mountain can't finish buying it," Qu Jianlei replied calmly, and then pointed at Hua Xiezhi in the distance, "Go and talk to her."
He was not interested in this kind of bargaining at all.
It just so happened that the last time he sold Restoration Fluid, Li Yuren had offended him. Let Hua Xiezhi help him take revenge this time.
"I feel murderous," Li Yuren looked at him with a half-smile.
In fact, he also remembered very clearly how Ridge Lord Qu threatened him viciously last time he took advantage of it.
Now I feel that this retribution... has come too quickly.
Joking aside, he still asked, "Are there any unused remains of Tree Race?"
"Yes," Qu Jianlei Diandian nodded, "But it's not for sale... you don't have to think about it."
Zhu Jiayi can feel the power of space on Tiger-Human Corpse, and Tree Race's corpse may reveal something.
Seriously, if you make it into a magic weapon and sell it, you can still get a profit from the processing. So, why sell the raw materials?
Li Yuren frowned when he heard this, "The key is your level of weapon refining... it's really a waste of natural resources!"
"Oh," Qu Jianlei Diandian nodded and sent a spiritual consciousness to Hua Xiezhi calmly, "The price will increase by another 50%!"
Hua Xiezhi pursed her lips, trying not to smile, but the upturned corners of her mouth had fully exposed her mood.
Haha, those Wood Shield were all made by the boss himself.
Li Yuren did not discuss the details with Hua Xiezhi because he learned his lesson this time and brought several Golden Core Realm clan members with him.
Why was Zhu Niandi, Zhu Family's junior, able to get a bargain in the first place? It's because Tiantian got in front of Red Leaf Ridge!
The junior Li Family has not done enough at this point, so he has to count on him, Old Ancestor, for everything!
The people below are negotiating, Li Yuren and Qu Jianlei chatting for a while.
Li Yuren really wants to know more about Tree Race, but Qu Jianlei is very tight-lipped.
"Bring me a few books of exercises, and I can consider telling you something you want to know."
"This knowledge is too expensive," Li Yuren replied helplessly, "By the way, can you still find the entrance to Tree Race World now?"
Qu Jianlei was so pestered that he couldn't bear it, "Always testing, are you done yet... Do you want to capture a few more Tree Race slaves?"
"There's nothing wrong with that," Li Yuren replied casually, "The main thing is that Nascent Soul Realm's material is so enviable."
Qu Jianlei Diandian nodded silently. He chatted with the other party, but it was not just a matter of leisure.
At least he tried to find out Cultivator's attitude towards Alien Race - it doesn't necessarily mean killing him, as long as he can ensure effective enslavement.
At this point, Cultivation World's tolerance for Alien Race is much higher than that of Empire, Alliance and Federation.
Generally speaking, this comes from Cultivator's confidence in himself and his belief in Cultivation World's ultimate Crowd Control ability.
Just like Cultivator in the past, it is clear that a race like Asura can be allowed to serve as a pastor in another world.
But there is no doubt that there is still a cost-effectiveness issue here.
The same Asura is basically impossible to appear as a slave in Cultivation World - because the value is too low.
Of course, all this is based on the effective control of Alien Race. If it cannot be guaranteed, don't worry about the slave.
Qu Jianlei secretly thought in his heart, if this is the case, then Wind Forgotten or even Great Hammer... seems to have a chance to show up?
However, "effective control" is indeed a big problem. There are no traces of slavery on those Alien Race Nascent Soul Realm.
Either he sent Oath of the Heavenly Dao, or he was intimidated - the key is that Jiao Daoren is no more than Nascent Soul Realm, and cannot effectively enslave the opponent.
These Alien Race Nascent Soul Realm have been tested many times by the Qu Jianlei team and can basically be trusted.
Now comes Cultivation World, which is Main Camp of Cultivator. They should be even more afraid to make trouble.
But the crux of the problem is that Qu Jianlei really cannot show that the other party is under the effective control of Red Leaf Ridge.
This is somewhat regrettable, but with such news confirmed, at least there will be a direction to work towards, which is also a good thing.
While Qu Jianlei was thinking secretly, Li Yuren started to ask him another question, "By the way, Heavenly Demon World, are you clear?"
Qu Jianlei glanced at him and couldn't help but complain, "I say, Emerald Screen Mountain's background... is a bit insufficient, Ji Family knows it."
"Aren't I curious?" Li Yuren replied angrily, "Although there are many records in the clan, they cannot guarantee their authenticity."
"As for the Ji Family, who can be older than his family?"
Then he raised his brows and asked with interest, "Have you talked about this with Ji Xiaohua?"
"Ji Xiaohua is much better than you," Qu Jianlei snorted, "Unlike you, who is young and only knows how to take advantage."
"I asked Heavenly Demon for the good of Red Leaf Ridge," Li Yuren couldn't help but defend himself.
"Huai Heng, that boy Ning Ying died of inner demons. Hundred Herbs Valley is fully investigating which force has contacted Heavenly Demon before."
"Are they really sick?" Qu Jianlei couldn't help but swear, "Is this how you check Heavenly Demon?"
"Then how should we check?" Li Yuren turned his head and looked at him curiously.
"Check Heavenly Devil Qi," Qu Jianlei replied angrily, "You don't even have this kind of magic weapon, right?"
"Yes, yes, but Buduo," Li Yuren replied casually, "It sounds like you also have this kind of magic weapon, can you borrow it?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head and answered simply, "It's not convenient."
"Haha, isn't that right?" Li Yuren laughed, "Red Leaf Ridge already cares about himself, so why bother talking about others?"
We have our own reasons...Qu Jianlei curled his lips, but was too lazy to explain.
But he didn't want to talk to this guy anymore, so he stood up and said, "If you didn't tell me, I would have forgotten that Ji Family also lacks Wood Shield."
Li Yuren was shocked when he heard this, "I said Ridge Lord Qu, didn't I mean to sell them all to me Emerald Screen Mountain?"
"Do you think I'm stupid?" Qu Jianlei asked casually, "If I don't do the monopoly business myself, I'll let you do it?"
Li Yuren is of course not stupid. When I asked that question just now, I was just trying to win over it - if the other party can't lose face, wouldn't it be a profit? Seeing Qu Jianlei Yao Li open, he couldn't help but say, "Wait a minute, count me in!"
After the other party showed up Red Leaf Ridge, he couldn't help but ask again, "Ridge Lord Qu, are you going in person?"
"Ji Xiaohua treats Red Leaf Ridge with sincerity," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "Out-of-Body Realm Secret Manuals has given me many copies, so I should reciprocate the favor."
Please make it clear to me, I've made a real effort.
Out-of-Body Realm...Secret Manuals? The corners of Li Yuren's mouth couldn't help but twitch slightly. This Ji Family really has a profound background.
"There's no way Out-of-Body Realm's technique is there, right?"
Qu Jianlei glanced sideways at him, "Who said no? Not only do they have one, there are two sets!"
He also included the repeated set of fragments, but it was not an exaggeration. Ji Xiaohua must have had two sets of exercises with him at that time.
Anyway, he thought it was necessary to publicize this matter—how could you roll it up if I didn't say it? Roll it up, roll it up hard! "Two sets..." Li Yuren's footsteps paused slightly, "Crazy, are you going to die?"
Qu Jianlei ignored him at all, "That's why I miss Ji Family, and they deserve it."
