More Than Enough Strength!
Li Wensong froze on the spot.
He stared blankly at Lu Qing'an, his mouth opened and closed, but he couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Lu Qing'an made it sound too easy just now.
He was so relaxed that it seemed as if the lofty Heavenly Dao of the Hongmeng Holy Realm were not untouchable beings in his eyes, but merely a group of troublesome obstacles in his path.
But Li Wensong knew all too well what those Heavenly Dao principles meant.
That was no ordinary strongman.
Those are beings who wield the trials of the Great Dao.
In the Hongmeng Holy Realm, anyone who truly aspires to reach the pinnacle of a particular Great Dao cannot escape the trials of the Heavenly Dao.
If cultivators are like fish swimming in a river, then the Heavenly Dao is the entity that controls the flow of the river.
Offending an ordinary powerful being would at most result in being hunted down.
Offending the Heavenly Dao is tantamount to cutting off one's path to cultivation.
Li Wensong swallowed hard and couldn't help but speak:
"Brother Lu, that's the Heavenly Dao of the Hongmeng Holy Realm!"
"I once cultivated the Great Dao of Cause and Effect, and was considered a relatively powerful figure in the Hongmeng Holy Realm."
"Even if three of me combined, we might not be able to defeat one Heavenly Dao."
As he spoke, his expression grew increasingly grave.
"Moreover, these Heavenly Dao are not just strong on their own."
"They have far too many fans behind them."
"With just a word from them, they can command a hundred responses!"
Lu Qing'an raised an eyebrow.
"One call, a hundred responses?"
Li Wensong nodded emphatically, his tone tinged with apprehension.
"That's right!"
"Brother Lu, think about it. These Heavenly Dao govern a kind of Great Dao test. How many people and forces in the Hongmeng Holy Realm want to curry favor with them?"
"For example, if a top-tier power were to cultivate a relationship with a Heavenly Dao in advance, wouldn't it be much easier for its members to break through to the Great Dao Realm?"
Some trials are meant to be life-or-death situations.
"But if Heavenly Dao intervenes, it might turn out to be a close call."
Who wouldn't want this kind of benefit?
Lu Qing'an stroked his chin.
"You mean, if you have a good relationship with these Heavenly Dao entities, you can even skip the assessment?"
Li Wensong shook his head.
"It's impossible without assessment."
"But it can save a lot of trouble."
"Turning a blind eye to certain problems and suppressing certain dangers can lead to completely different outcomes."
As he spoke, his heart grew heavier.
In the Hongmeng Holy Realm, strength is very important.
But relationships are equally important.
Those forces closely connected to the Heavenly Dao often gain a significant advantage in the cultivation of the Great Dao.
Those who offend the will of Heavenly Dao, no matter how talented, may be stuck at a certain threshold and never be able to make any progress.
This is the terrifying aspect of the Way of Heavenly Dao.
They not only have power, but also authority.
However, after listening, Lu Qing'an simply nodded calmly.
"I see."
Li Wensong thought he had finally realized the seriousness of the matter and was about to breathe a sigh of relief.
The next moment, Lu Qing'an said calmly:
"Then I'll just beat up the Heavenly Dao and all its supporters."
"Don't worry, we have more than enough strength."
Suddenly, the area around the stone pavilion fell silent.
Li Wensong stared blankly at Lu Qing'an.
He wanted to persuade him.
But looking at Lu Qing'an's calm, almost matter-of-fact face, he swallowed back the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
If someone else had said that, Li Wensong would have thought they were crazy.
But hearing these words from Lu Qing'an gave him an inexplicable, absurd thought.
Maybe...
Can Brother Lu really do it?
Li Wensong's heart pounded wildly.
His curiosity about Lu Qing'an reached its peak at this moment.
Could it be that Brother Lu had some special methods hidden before his reincarnation?
Could he truly be that terrifying being who has cultivated all the Great Dao?
If that's really the case, then those so-called Heavenly Dao of the Hongmeng Holy Realm might really be nothing in front of Brother Lu.
Just as Li Wensong was in shock, Lu Qing'an suddenly took out something from his hand.
It was a seed.
The seed is no bigger than a fingertip, yet it is crystal clear, with extremely mysterious patterns shimmering on its surface.
The patterns seemed alive, flowing slowly and faintly exuding an aura of immortality.
Li Wensong glanced at it once, then abruptly stood up.
He almost knocked over the chair.
"The Immortal Great Dao Seed!"
Good heavens!
"Brother Lu, you actually have such a treasure!"
Li Wensong's eyes widened in disbelief.
This is no ordinary treasure.
The Immortal Great Dao Seed, as its name suggests, contains the Power of the Origin Source of the Great Dao of Immortality.
If one can refine it, it is equivalent to obtaining the key to comprehending the Great Dao of Immortality ahead of time.
If placed in the Hongmeng Holy Realm, this thing would be enough to cause countless powerful forces to fight tooth and nail for it.
Lu Qing'an smiled as she looked at him.
"You've pretty much figured out who I am."
"Isn't it normal for me to use this kind of thing?"
Li Wensong paused for a moment, then nodded with a dry laugh.
"Too."
"Given Brother Lu's status, it's indeed reasonable for him to take out the Immortal Great Dao Seed."
Though he said that, he was still deeply shocked inside.
It makes sense, though.
But this is a Saint-level top-grade treasure!
Lu Qing'an took it out casually.
Just how terrifying is his background?
Lu Qing'an played with the Immortal Great Dao Seed in his hand and casually asked:
"Since you know this is Immortal Great Dao Seed, you must know its grade, right?"
Li Wensong quickly said:
"Know!"
"Saint-grade Supreme Item!"
Lu Qing'an's eyes flickered slightly.
Saint-grade supreme quality.
It seems the system's recommendations are indeed quite good.
He remained outwardly calm and continued:
"Then tell me properly about the quality of the treasures in the Hongmeng Holy Realm."
Li Wensong blinked.
"Brother Lu doesn't know?"
Lu Qing'an coughed lightly.
I'm testing you.
That's what he said, but he couldn't help but complain in his heart.
This system is strange.
They were all incredibly generous when it came to rewarding him with treasures, but they absolutely refused to tell him basic information such as the treasure's level and cultivation system.
Now he has to find someone to get information out of him.
Li Wensong didn't think much of it.
He immediately straightened his posture and said seriously:
The treasures in the Hongmeng Holy Realm are roughly divided into three levels.
"Rule-level, Great Dao -level, and Saint-level."
"Each grade is further divided into low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade, and top-grade."
"Rule-level treasures are usually capable of invoking the power of rules."
"Great Dao -level treasure contains the aura of the Great Dao."
"As for Saint-level treasures, those are the ones that can truly tempt even the most powerful experts."
"Especially those Saint-level supreme items, which are often extremely rare and hard to come by."
Upon hearing this, Lu Qing'an immediately understood.
Goodness!
So, the items rewarded by the system are all of very high quality.
After all, the system frequently gives him Saint-level treasures that are above the Rule-level and Great Dao- level.
Li Wensong's eyes burned with desire as he looked at the Immortal Great Dao Seed in Lu Qing'an's hand.
His smile grew even more obsequious.
"It seems that Brother Lu must have hidden away quite a few treasures before his reincarnation."
"The precious pearl that Brother Lu took out not long ago was also a sacred item."
Lu Qing'an glanced at him indifferently.
Li Wensong immediately lowered his head, his smile becoming even more respectful.
He knew he had to cling to this powerful figure now.
For someone like Lu Qing'an, even the slightest benefit slipping through his fingers would be enough to allow him to rise again.
Lu Qing'an naturally saw through his thoughts.
However, Li Wensong was sensible and insightful, and keeping him around was indeed useful.
So he casually said:
"I've always thought you were a good kid."
"They will continue to be used by me in the future."
"Giving you one or two Saint-level treasures wouldn't be out of the question."
Li Wensong was startled.
The next moment, an undisguised look of ecstasy spread across his face.
Saint-level treasure!
One or two!
Brother Lu spoke too casually.
The more casual he is, the more it shows that he really doesn't lack anything.
Li Wensong bowed and clasped his hands almost without hesitation.
"From now on, I will follow Brother Lu's lead without question!"
"I have absolutely no ulterior motives!"
His voice was incredibly firm.
My heart was pounding with excitement.
It's out!
This time it really worked!
He knew Brother Lu was generous!
If he could actually obtain one or two Saint-level treasures from Lu Qing'an in the future, and once he returned to the Hongmeng Holy Realm and regained his original cultivation level, wouldn't he be able to slay gods and Buddhas alike?
Thinking of those bald men who had caused him to end up in this sorry state, a chilling murderous intent flashed deep in Li Wensong's eyes.
Just wait!
Wait until I get back!
We will slaughter you all, leaving not a single one alive!
Lu Qing'an remained calm as he watched Li Wensong bow his head in submission.
He gently turned the Immortal Great Dao Seed in his hand.
The patterns on the seed's surface shimmered incessantly.
And in his heart, he finally gained a clearer understanding of the outline of the Hongmeng Holy Realm.
Heavenly Dao reigns supreme.
Climbing the social ladder by attaching oneself to powerful figures.
Treasures are classified.
Rules, the Great Dao, the Saintly Level.
This world is far more complex than he had imagined.
However complex it may be.
Lu Qing'an's lips curled up slightly.
As long as you have enough strength.
Everything complex can be made simple!
