Chapter 2776 The Walking...
Persistence pays off. After trying for nearly half a year, Han Li actually managed to contact his clone in the outside world.
Although it was intermittent—mostly interrupted—he was still extremely excited.
In this respect, he has already surpassed that guy: Qu Zhenzun didn't dare to leave a clone outside! He could only relay the message through the Great Lord.
Moreover, the speed and accuracy of his communication with his clone far surpassed that of the stuttering spider!
However, he had no intention of showing off. He treated it as his trump card. In this day and age, who doesn't have a few tricks up their sleeve when they're out in the world?
Logically, he could have his clone relay a message to increase or decrease the compression force.
That way he could try to enlarge his body and see if he could harvest more life elements.
Admittedly, this is a very tempting idea—this kind of vitality will definitely become a hot commodity in the cultivation world in the future.
However, it really couldn't be done. Han Li hesitated for a moment, then sensed Qu Zhenzun and the giant axe before giving up the idea.
Even the slightest change in the external environment could cause all the previous efforts of these two "statues" to be in vain. He dared not gamble, and could not afford to gamble.
Finally, at a certain moment, the space in the silent zone trembled slightly.
Han Li is trying to capture life elements using a dual-threaded approach—if successful, it would be a milestone.
Even such a slight tremor completely disrupted his micro-management. "Holy crap, this... um?"
The next moment, Qu Zhenzun and the giant axe made their move.
The giant axe arrived directly beside Qu Zhenzun, who then unleashed a torrent of deathly aura.
"Han Li, be careful, you're using your palace!"
The handsome young man released the Divine Palace before the divine sense transmission was even finished—something he had always prepared for.
He had seen the remains of the War Witch King with his own eyes, and he had also seen the fallen Crystal Clan True Lord, so he understood the seriousness of the situation all too well.
Then he raised his hand and forcibly dragged the two of them into the palace. "You two... ugh, this smell is so strong!"
“It’s just an aura of deathly stillness,” Qu Jianlei said in a deep voice. “I told you to protect yourself, we…”
The next moment, the entire quiet zone began to tremble, initially slightly, but gradually intensifying.
The cultivators outside also sensed it immediately, wondering, "What's going on?"
This never happened during the last compression.
"Someone's probably courting disaster!" the young woman sighed softly. "Spider, say something!"
"No, no," the Spider Lord managed to send out his thoughts with difficulty, but the meaning was already quite clear.
“Stop putting pressure on us,” Prince Namihira decisively stated. “Maintain our current state and observe the situation first, otherwise the consequences will be unpredictable.”
"Han Li," the Möbius strip sent out its divine sense directly, "do you have nothing to say?"
The handsome young man's clone shook his head blankly—he couldn't contact the real person at all.
However, after a brief tremor, the amplitude gradually decreased.
At this moment, Qu Zhenzun, who was in the Silent Zone, had rushed out of the palace, his body radiating an increasingly intense aura of death.
Surprisingly, his choice actually worked, and a strong wave began to spread towards him.
"This..." Han Li gritted her teeth slightly, but made no other move.
He was completely unaware of the whole incident, and at this point, he could only choose to trust his teammates.
But he couldn't help but glare fiercely at the giant axe, "What exactly did you do?"
He knew that Qu Zhenzun held ritual implements in high esteem, but at this moment, he simply couldn't control his emotions.
However, the many heroic spirits within the giant axe didn't bother with him.
If anyone else dared to do this, Li Qi would definitely let them know what it means to "not look at what is improper" and "not speak what is improper"!
But Xiao Qu's Daoist partner... let's just treat him like a child!
It is worth mentioning that the fluctuation spread to the deathly stillness, its amplitude dropped sharply in an instant, and it weakened visibly.
In other words, a deathly stillness is the correct solution!
Han Li stared in astonishment at this scene, muttering softly, "When did this guy become so amazing?"
He paused for a moment, then raised his hand and bowed to the giant axe. "I apologize, seniors. I was a little rude in the heat of the moment."
“It doesn’t matter,” a persistent thought replied, “your divided spirit treasure is also protecting the ritual artifact.”
The other party actually responded? Han Li was overjoyed. He knew very well the arrogance of ritual artifacts. "May I ask, Fellow Daoist Qu, what is this...?"
“This is his choice; let’s just observe,” Zhi Nian replied leisurely.
"Thank you for your guidance, senior," Han Li bowed again, "This junior dares to ask a question, please bestow upon me a name."
He's not just good at courting death; when it comes to manners, he's incredibly knowledgeable.
“It’s not important,” Zhi Nian replied leisurely. “By the way, don’t mention that I’ve communicated with you.”
Don't say... Han Li was a little puzzled: I don't even know who you are, but I was thinking of saying it.
However, he still nodded slightly, "I will obey your orders, senior!"
However, the next moment, a thought flashed through his mind, and he couldn't help but ask, "Is it Senior Zhan Dao?"
No one answered him. After a while, the handsome young man bowed again and said, "This junior understands. Is it better not to meet than to meet?"
No one answered him, but it didn't matter anymore, since no one was denying it, right?
At this moment, more and more fluctuations spread towards Qu Jianlei, each wave stronger than the last.
However, miraculously, it could not break through the deathly stillness and could not spread to Qu Zhenzun's true form.
Next, the fluctuations subsided, and the quiet zone gradually returned to calm.
Han Li couldn't wait for complete calm any longer, and disregarded the deathly silence, "What exactly did you do?"
"Save the world!" Qu Jianlei replied blankly, "So many life elements... hurry up and do it!"
"We just can't agree on anything!" Han Li snorted sullenly and floated out of the palace.
Now that the turmoil is almost over and the vitality element has indeed become much stronger, he can't afford to waste the opportunity, can he?
Immediately afterwards, the giant axe also floated out, deliberately avoiding the fluctuation zone, and began to grow larger, then captured the life element.
“Take a little more restraint,” Qu Jianlei couldn’t help but remind him again, “Gaowei’s counterattack isn’t completely over yet.”
"It doesn't matter, they're all going after you!" Han Li said nonchalantly, "We're perfectly safe."
Qu Jianlei was speechless. "You've got a knack for it."
But deep down, he liked this kind of cooperation.
It's not that they're addicted to masochism, but rather that their teammates are able to assess the situation and then each take initiative.
This rare opportunity of abundant vitality is one to seize as much as possible—even if you don't succeed, you'll still gain valuable experience.
If you only care about what's wrong with him and are too timid to try, then you're really wasting this great opportunity.
This wave of fluctuation came quickly but subsided very slowly, lasting for almost half a month before the quiet zone gradually began to return to calm.
With the external pressure greatly reduced and the life force element greatly increased, both Hanli and the Giant Axe made good gains.
Han Li's upper limit for capturing life force that day reached fifteen—that's right, the pressure has lessened, and he can grow larger.
The giant axe's harvest is even more terrifying, with the daily limit exceeding a thousand—previously, it never exceeded three hundred!
Unfortunately, this period of prosperity was short-lived. As the fluctuations subsided, the concentration of vital elements decreased sharply.
This isn't because the capture difficulty has increased; high-dimensional elements are inherently difficult to capture.
The main problem is that a very high concentration of these substances causes life forms to collide and end up trapped.
Joyful times are always fleeting; after the revelry, everyone returns to normalcy.
Han Li reiterated, "Shouldn't you give me an explanation?"
“This is beyond words,” Qu Jianlei replied carefully.
"You could think of it as a minor accident that happened during our perception of higher dimensions... Anyway, it wasn't very dangerous."
"You did it on your own initiative, didn't you?" Han Li wasn't easily fooled. "Wasn't that courting death?"
Qu Jianlei wasn't angry. "Facts speak louder than words... As you've seen, the situation is under control."
That's true! Han Li frowned. "This deathly aura?"
Qu Jianlei shook his head decisively, "There really aren't many left!"
"Would I ask you that kind of question?" Han Li rolled her eyes at him. "I mean... dynamic equilibrium?"
“That’s right,” Qu Jianlei nodded, “using the self-correcting ability of the silent zone… thankfully, its level is high enough.”
Han Li curled her lip in annoyance, "And you still say you're not courting death."
"How can we save the day without taking risks..." Qu Jianlei sighed softly and said nothing more.
Looking at his expression, Han Li suddenly had a flash of inspiration, "You want to do it a few more times?"
"..." Qu Jianlei looked at him speechlessly. Did he have to be so sensitive?
However, since the other party had guessed it, he could only say, "At most two more times... really not many more."
His current life force reserves far exceed the death energy, but fortunately, he is in a quiet zone, making it very convenient to absorb the latter.
Han Li asked thoughtfully, "From now on, you'll be a walking... higher-dimensional attractor?"
"You guessed it again." Qu Jianlei remained silent for a long time before nodding. "If you want to fish, how can you do without bait?"
"You..." Han Li looked like she wanted to hit someone, but after thinking about it, she let out a soft sigh.
A moment later, he added, "Let's contact the outside world; this has caused quite a stir."
"I can feel it," Qu Jianlei had already sensed that the compressive force was slowing down.
But the next moment, his eyes darted around suspiciously, "You've contacted your clone?"
Han Li paused for a moment, then smiled slightly, "You are indeed qualified to be my Daoist partner."
"Tch, who cares?" Qu Jianlei scoffed, then started contacting Xiaohu.
The cultivators outside noticed that the tremors were gradually stopping, but they still dared not increase the pressure, and each of them had doubts.
What exactly happened inside?
Xiao You simply summoned the young lady directly, "Ancestor, is it inconvenient to go in now?"
“He’s fine,” the Möbius strip replied. “In this situation, don’t disturb him.”
Fortunately, the spider didn't keep everyone waiting too long. "Like this, three times, at least!"
