"Fellow Daoist, Fellow Daoist!" Upon hearing this, True Monarch Jiuqi could no longer hold back. "Wait a moment."
"You are also a Great Khan, you know how rare this treasure is!"
"These two young friends were attacked by that treasure," Bo Ping Zhenjun said calmly, "and they resolved it themselves."
He's not just aggressive; he's also calculating: please think this through. Two True Venerables withstood the Divine Transformation Treasure and even stole it!
"Let's stick to the facts. If this happened to you... could you tolerate it?"
“This is intolerable,” True Monarch Jiuqi nodded. He no longer wanted to consider how powerful the other party was.
As for whether this is Baiyou Business Alliance's fault? There's no need to emphasize that; the matter has already been addressed, and the other party doesn't acknowledge it.
Ultimately, they weren't trying to reason with us.
Since that's the case, there's no need for ineffective communication. "But this treasure for distracting the mind is extremely rare. Can we change our terms?"
Upon hearing this, Bo Ping Zhenjun glanced at the others—his villainous role was now complete—and asked, "Who wants to talk?"
After a while, a female voice rang out, "You're the one, continue."
Disputes about who is qualified to speak out are nonexistent within the team—no matter how great the benefits, can they outweigh the ability to turn the tide?
Moreover, Qu Zhenzun is a person of taste. Aren't those eighteen life-giving energies appealing?
Bo Ping Zhenjun asked again to make sure no one had any objections before turning to Jiu Qi Zhenjun, "Ten or eight pieces of the World Core!"
He couldn't ask the other party for information about the silent zone, as that's information only the participants have the right to know.
Some people are desperately trying to save the day, but guess what... isn't there anyone who wants to do something bad?
At the very least, in his eyes, the cultivators of Wuya were untrustworthy.
Even if he succeeds in saving the world in the future, he will try his best to keep the relevant information confidential—knowledge always has a price!
As it happens, Bo Ping Zhenjun also knows that Xiao Qu needs the world core, so let's ask him to.
"Ten or eight pieces," the red-faced True Monarch could only smile bitterly upon hearing this, "Fellow Daoist, this grudge runs deep."
Before they came, they conducted very thorough research, which included the core principles of cause and effect in the world.
However, they thought that so much time had passed.
So it was only a very, very small possibility, but they noted it down as a factor.
Who would have thought that the other party would hold such a grudge?
Bo Ping Zhenjun replied calmly, "Back then, we wanted to make a deal, but your response was, 'You've come to the wrong person.'"
This is an old case. Lianxing had previously tried to use the world's core to save the world from collapse, but with little success.
During this period, Lianxing sought to purchase world cores from multiple major worlds and also approached the Boundless Realm.
The answer should be "You've got the wrong person," rather than saying no—daring to say no means you'll have to bear the consequences.
Perhaps the Boundless Realm truly doesn't exist, but failing to clarify this can be seen as arrogance, as if one feels there's no need to explain to Lian Xing.
Lian Xing had encountered this kind of passive-aggressive attitude many times before and couldn't bring himself to argue with it, but since the other party was willing to bring up old grievances, he was naturally even less afraid to speak up.
“We can’t fully grasp the situation regarding this kind of treasure,” Kuki Shinjun hurriedly said.
He wasn't sure who had said those words, and he couldn't help but curse inwardly—was it so hard to give a proper explanation?
However, it is indeed possible for a cultivator with boundless power to do such a thing.
Now that we've brought up old grievances, we can only be frank: "I can't give you an answer right now; I'll have to go back and ask."
"But ten or eighty yuan...that's a bit too much!"
Qu Jianlei had a thought, and soon a dark shadow appeared in the distance.
It was a gigantic spider, dragging an even larger rock.
Upon seeing this, the expressions of Wuya's True Lords changed again. Even from a great distance, they could recognize the origin of the stone.
“Middle Thousand Worlds…” Jiuqi rubbed his forehead helplessly, “What does that mean?”
For a True Lord, the Middle Thousand Worlds are not particularly rare—for details, please refer to Crystal Ancestor.
But dragging it around like this is a bit puzzling. Can't it be compressed a bit?
Bo Ping Zhenjun spoke solemnly, "It's more convenient to take it on the spot!"
This is purely meant to scare people, but it must be admitted that the statement itself is not problematic!
Kuki Shinjun remained silent for a long time before replying, "Three pieces, that's the most... consider it a gift from us!"
Bo Ping scoffed, "Lian Xing isn't as poor as you think, she doesn't need this little bit!"
Oh no, I misspoke again. Jiuqi Zhenjun gritted his teeth inwardly. Sigh, this fragile self-esteem is as fragile as glass!
He chuckled. “I mean, trying to find the complete one… it’s something that can’t be measured by any treasure.”
Bo Ping Zhenjun fell silent. He felt that the bargaining had gone far enough.
"It seems you have no objections, fellow Daoist?" True Monarch Jiuqi spoke cautiously. "Then I'll make the arrangements."
Bo Ping Zhenjun glanced at Han Li, pondered for a moment, and then spoke in a deep voice, "Then the Hundred Friends Merchant Alliance..."
“Let’s stop contacting each other,” the handsome young man replied calmly. “If Wuya can extract two more World Cores, that’s a reward for his hard work.”
He didn't believe that Wuya could produce all three world cores, since the money would come from the sheep's back.
Even if they didn't have it, they would at least be reluctant to part with it. So, who would they turn to? Naturally, the Hundred Friends Alliance.
Although Wuyai has four True Monarchs emerging, the Merchant Alliance claims to have a hundred True Venerables, and they still conduct business in various worlds...
It's normal that he couldn't get a Nascent Soul level treasure. Having three world cores is still a small consolation for Qu Zhenzun.
Having reached an agreement, ten days later, True Monarch Jiuqi delivered three World Cores at an astonishing speed.
After delivering the goods, he turned and left—the cause and effect had been set, and if the other party dared to renege on their debt, they would have to wait and see.
The next moment, Wan Tianqing and his group disappeared.
Kuki Shinjun sensed it and couldn't help but sigh, "This is what you call an undeserved disaster..."
During the journey, Qu Jianlei put away the three world cores and took out more than a hundred green light clusters.
“I have a use for the core, and everyone has participated. Everyone who sees it gets a share... five paths for each person.”
Faced with such a treasure, no one was polite to him. Since he claimed to have few, no one bothered to consider his family's wealth.
Moreover, everyone did indeed stand up for them; it wasn't a matter of cause and effect without reason.
Song Yue'er put away the ball of light and said with a happy smile, "Qu Zhenzun is indeed meticulous in his work... By the way!"
She turned her head to look at Bo Ping Zhenjun and spoke thoughtfully.
"May I ask, Your Majesty, which other great world has ever shown disrespect to Lianxing?"
"You..." Bo Ping Zhenjun usually had a stern face, but upon hearing this, he was somewhat amused and exasperated. "Addicted to fleecing people?"
“This kind of extra income makes me feel at ease,” Song Yue’er answered seriously. “I’m actually asking this question on behalf of everyone.”
"We can even vent our anger at Lianxing, can't we?"
"Get out of here," Prince Nagahira scolded her, both amused and exasperated.
However, to his dismay, the next moment he noticed that several Star-level True Venerables had thoughtful expressions in their eyes!
"You guys need to stop this!" he had to explain seriously. "You don't want to make the cultivators of Lianxing public enemies of the cultivation world, do you?"
“Fellow Daoist Song’s move has a hint of the Devil’s touch,” True Venerable She Niu replied with a smile.
His nickname was well-deserved; "before, everyone was indeed a bit depressed."
"However, thanks to the Great Khan's reminder, the humiliation we suffered was actually a demonstration of our responsibility to Lianxing!"
“You’re quite the smooth talker,” Jin Ge couldn’t help but nod. “Once it’s all done and Lian Xing is reborn, let them envy him.”
Seeing this, Han Li couldn't help but shake his head, "This is... a real group of talented people!"
Jingzu brought the location of the third Silent Zone—he had personally gone to check it out.
Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment, then looked at Han Li, "Are you confident you can complete the operation independently?"
The handsome young man remained silent for a while before answering, "Not so easy."
He knew his own situation well; Qu Zhenzun's ethereal state, akin to sudden enlightenment, was something he could hardly emulate.
With the aid of ritual implements, he could almost reap the rewards. However, could he gain the axe's approval?
Unlike Qu Zhenzun, after witnessing the power of the giant axe, Han Li had a vague guess in his mind—it was probably not just at the Nascent Soul level!
However, it was a ritual object. Even if he wanted to inform Qu Zhenzun, he still had to consider whether it was proper to speak behind his back like that.
Even if Li Qi could reluctantly obey Qu Zhenzun's orders out of respect, there was still a major problem...
"Wan Tianqing, you're the main player, don't even think about slacking off!"
“Hmm,” Qu Jianlei nodded. He had forgotten that the life force this guy was transforming into was different from his own!
Thanks to the feedback from the War God, the amount of life force he stored far exceeded that of Han Li, making him the main force in saving the world.
While Han Li can certainly profit from others' misfortunes, if he doesn't use it for legitimate purposes, then bringing a large group of people along wouldn't make much sense.
Lianxing's Kunxiu Zhenzun suddenly spoke up, "Qu Zhenzun, if we use the Time in the Silent Zone, can it accelerate the identification of higher dimensions?"
"In the Silent Zone...using Time?" Qu Jianlei fell into deep thought.
Time can originate from higher dimensions, and it is even quite possible that in higher dimensions, time exists as a form of matter or sub-matter.
This was a new idea, and he carefully considered his reply, "I need to think about it."
Han Li blinked twice, pondered for a moment, and then glanced at Xiao You Zhenzun, seemingly unintentionally...
It took the group twenty days to reach the third quiet zone.
This is a massive mass of energy in the void. Due to the spatial distortion, it was quite difficult for the Crystal Ancestor to find this place.
Because it didn't want to get involved in the cause and effect of the collapse of the heavens, it didn't go in to take a look.
Jingzu only did a divination and confirmed that there was a silent zone inside—but it didn't seem very big.
"Let's go in and take a look," the group discussed, leaving Wuchen, Wenshi, and Jingzu outside to keep watch.
Qu Jianlei originally thought that once inside, he might encounter surviving cultivators.
Unfortunately, everyone only saw three Star Devouring Beasts at the Out-of-Body level, each one severely wounded, extremely weak, and on the verge of death.
This minor incident was not worth taking seriously at all, and Prince Namihira proactively asked, "Shall I do it?"
