An Unreliable Way Out

The affairs of the Tur tribe were ultimately resolved in a fervent religious atmosphere.

This way of solving the problem seems incredible and doesn't conform to normal human logic, but it is the correct way to solve the Tur people's problem.

For this race, the god Tu'er is the rope that holds the entire group together.

Regardless of whether the god Tu'er is strong or weak, divine or dead, or whether he has not responded for years or decades, or whether there is no god Tu'er at all, he is still an existence that must be protected.

Without the god Tu'er, the chieftain would cease to exist, the elders would also lose their power, and the entire tribe would fall apart.

This is different from how a country operates, and God's response is enough to change the course of events and directly resolve many difficult issues.

The fervent belief in miracles inevitably led to word-of-mouth transmission, eventually spreading throughout the entire Tuer tribe.

"The Heart Incantation and the Supreme Purity True Technique were passed down just like that!" Ren Anran said quietly.

"The problem isn't too big," Zhang Xuezhou shook his head, then pointed to Turkalando and said, "When you import novels from the Scarlet Alliance State, you need to be careful with a book called The Smiling, Proud Wanderer. It contains some of that content; don't let it cause any disputes!"

He wouldn't mind if Zhang Xuezhou included his own personal opinions in his novel, and he wouldn't mind spreading it among the Tuer tribe.

However, truly mastering the Heart Incantation and the Supreme Purity True Technique is by no means an easy task.

However, the large population of the Tur people may create a group of practitioners.

Zhang Xuezhou didn't care too much about these things.

Solving the Tuer tribe's problem did indeed solve Ren Yisheng's need for Soul Jade, which was the most important thing for them on this trip; everything else was less important.

Moreover, Zhang Xuezhou himself was facing numerous risks; what could a person on the verge of death possibly care about?

Compared to the issues surrounding the Tuer tribe, seeking X432 repair technology to restore him to normal is the most urgent matter at hand.

Not only was Zhang Xuezhou injured, but the extraterrestrial demon also appeared to be seriously injured.

It wasn't difficult for Zhang Xuezhou to make this judgment; the seventh day had already passed, and he hadn't entered the other world.

This inevitably corresponds to a longer transfer time.

Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but feel fortunate that his counterpart in the other world not only had the care of Dong Zhongshu and Rong Tianding, but also that his Grain Avoidance Technique had reached an extremely high level, which would ensure that he wouldn't starve to death in the short term.

"I also need the X446 repair technology," Zhang Xuezhou said to Turcolando. "No matter what method you use, get this done for me in the short term!"

Relying on the control of Tu'er, Ren Yisheng, and Ren Anran, and with himself being certified as a divine messenger by Tu'er Kalando, Zhang Xuezhou urged them without any politeness.

This request left Turcolando with no choice but to comply, despite his sigh.

Compared to the Scarlet Alliance State, the Thousand Islands Alliance's genetic technology is far inferior, not only in terms of research technology but also in medical equipment.

Correspondingly, these high-end medical services are available to a very limited range of people, and the application process is several times more difficult than in the Scarlet Alliance State. Moreover, it is difficult to solve the problem with money.

Were you seriously injured in your fight with Ara?

Through Ren Yisheng's retelling, Ren Anran learned some of the details, but only Zhang Xuezhou himself truly understood them.

Ren Anran knew Zhang Xuezhou very well; if there were no other way, Zhang Xuezhou wouldn't have resorted to such a forceful approach to solve the problem.

"Besides my Divine Sense being severely damaged, I also lost a technique," Zhang Xuezhou said helplessly. "I need to start cultivating it all over again!"

Zhang Xuezhou can only be thankful that he based his practice of the Nine Avoidance Techniques on the Grain Avoidance, and that the other avoidance techniques were not particularly difficult to practice by simply copying them.

Moreover, he did not erase his memories; the contents of the "Stop the War" technique remained in his mind.

But losing a skill for no reason is not something to be happy about.

Zhang Xuezhou is currently in a very passive position and doesn't know how to solve this problem.

The Yang Soul Transformation Technique he condensed in his mental state changed the course of the battle, but it also brought him extremely significant hidden dangers.

The only good news at this point was that if he couldn't do it, neither could the extraterrestrial demons.

If Zhang Xuezhou remembered correctly, this was the third time the extraterrestrial demons had been attacked.

The more severe the injury, the longer it will take for the extraterrestrial demons to transfer him to another world.

It seems the other party needs to accumulate energy for a much longer period of time to complete this transformation.

When responding to Ren Anran, Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but ponder possible solutions.

"Before the pure energy rises, before the turbid energy sinks, before the wandering spirit awakens, before the five colors are distinguished, there is something within, and in the the Unseen, its nature exists..."

After a long while, Zhang Xuezhou had no choice but to turn to the "Tomb Classic".

Aside from praying in a foreign language for his ancestors to bless him with peace and safety, Zhang Xuezhou had no other options.

If he could travel through the world again, perhaps he could ask Dong Zhongshu for advice, or perhaps he could find his cheap imperial teacher, or perhaps, as Wu Chao suggested, he could seek fortuitous opportunity in the Western Sect, or something else entirely.

These were the only options Zhang Xuezhou had.

Of course, he also had a plan to take everyone down with him.

This prompted Zhang Xuezhou to recite the ancestral scriptures once before giving his final instructions.

"Then how can I tell if you're still you?"

Ren Anran asked a question that Zhang Xuezhou found difficult to answer.

"Maybe one day I'll like to imitate a duck's quack, and then I won't be myself anymore!"

If Zhang Xuezhou were to explain the difference between himself and the extraterrestrial demon, he could only use this as a distinction, since the other party, besides mechanically praying, had also been transformed into a black-feathered duck that liked to quack.

"Professor Qin Wenhan still enjoys imitating bird calls. If you ever misbehave during your practice, wouldn't that cause a major problem?"

Ren Anran hesitated, feeling that Zhang Xuezhou's method of differentiation was somewhat problematic.

If one day Zhang Xuezhou were to idly imitate a duck's quack and then be shot dead by her, his death would be somewhat unjust.

Moreover, accidents during cultivation are unpredictable. It's not impossible that Zhang Xuezhou might develop a minor ailment like Professor Qin Wenhan someday.

When it comes to matters of life and death, no amount of caution is excessive.

"If you really can't withstand that Hongku, you can do what I did, leave your body, and then settle in the Soul Jade. Look how well I'm doing now, I've even become a god of the Tuer clan... You better behave yourself!"

Ren Yisheng's words of experience dispelled Zhang Xuezhou's idea.

The other person's path might be replicable, but Ren Yisheng's fate was truly tragic.

Zhang Xuezhou felt that no one would want to repeat Ren Yisheng's life, and that the other person was on the verge of a mental breakdown during this period of torment. Zhang Xuezhou doubted that he himself could endure it.

But Zhang Xuezhou couldn't help but feel a slight stirring in his heart.

"What did that god Tu'er say? Can that divine title really be taken away?"

The exchange of information not only helped Ren Yisheng and others gain a better understanding of Zhang Xuezhou's situation, but also gave Zhang Xuezhou new insights.

Human spirit can be anchored in the body, but there are other vessels in the world more suitable for the physical body.

This is the pseudo-immortality of the extraterrestrial demons mentioned by the Emperor, and also the divine essence that the God of Tu'er never forgot.

Zhang Xuezhou never expected that this kind of 'divine status' could actually be taken away.

"The day you try to destroy me, I'll get God Tu'er and An Ran to team up and beat you up until you're dead and your godhood is shattered, making everything you have come to naught!"

He was uttering harsh words in his heart, and one thought after another was running through his mind, but if asked which one was reliable, Zhang Xuezhou really felt that none of them were truly safe.

He had no choice but to walk and observe as he went.

At least for now, he is still his true self and has not been replaced by the extraterrestrial demons.
