Chapter 81
Refusal
"What are your thoughts on the second clone?"
Qianqing's avatar looked up at Ailin, "Should we pursue the size of our future divine body, or follow the path of laws?"
"Teacher, what's the difference between these two routes?"
"There is a big difference."
As he spoke, Qianqing's clone explained the distinction between laws and divine bodies, mentioning the prerequisites for breaking through to the level of Universe Venerable and Universe Lord. He also emphasized that the current strong beings in the universe pay great attention to the size of their divine bodies, and if Erin chooses to nurture a special life form with a super-large divine body, there is a ready-made template for him to choose from.
Ready-made templates?
Ailin turned around in surprise and looked in the direction that Qianqing's clone was pointing. Suddenly, an ancient tree that blocked out the sky came into view.
"Teacher...Teacher, are you talking about this sacred tree?"
This is also a clone?!
After gesturing to confirm the vast difference between the hundred-meter-tall ancient cliff beast and this divine tree, Erin swallowed hard.
He seemed to understand why all the powerful pursued the ultimate divine body.
With that physique, even if his combat strength is slightly inferior, he could exhaust someone just by standing there and letting you hit him at will.
But can I really...?
"Don't worry, you can conceive it," Qianqing's clone said with a smile.
"Your Cangya clone definitely cannot nurture a complete Great Chun Ancient Tree. The life gene level of the Great Chun Ancient Tree is more than a thousand times higher, which can be considered top-tier among special life forms."
"However, I can separate the second-grade ancient trees that have condensed their essence. Although their genes are a few hundred times weaker, they can still grow to their limit and reach a height of several thousand kilometers without any problem."
"Does the teacher think I should create a clone of the Great Camellia?"
Erin was already tempted.
However, besides his divine body, he also pays attention to cultivating his own laws. If his second clone cannot improve his talent in the laws of time, it seems to be of no benefit to his future path.
Erin has big ambitions!
Laws, divine bodies... He wanted to possess a super divine body, and also to cultivate both time and space to become the master of the universe.
"You have plenty of time to consider."
Qianqing's clone smiled, "Anyway, you won't be able to leave this Biyuan Divine Kingdom in the short term with your current appearance. Take this time to figure out what you really want."
"I understand, teacher."
Upon hearing this, the majestic ancient beast immediately bowed in respect. Its ferocious appearance combined with its human-like actions made it look somewhat silly.
After saying that, he turned his head and looked at the three thousand lamp wicks on one side.
"My Lord, may I find a place to stay temporarily in one of the surrounding palaces? The energy here is extremely rich, which is perfect for me to complete the task assigned by my teacher and comprehend the innate divine restriction through weapon refining."
"Try to go to the palaces on the outskirts," Three Thousand Lamps said coldly.
"Your grandmaster is going to undergo a transformation here for a while. If you disturb his transformation, don't blame me for teaching you a lesson."
Immediately, Erin's expression became slightly strange.
To allow a realm lord to undergo transformation in the divine kingdom, and to personally guard him—could it be that his master and this king-level expert have some kind of affair?
Otherwise, why would she even be willing to hand over the Domain Pill to the Dark Corner Clan for sale...?
It is clear that Erin misunderstood the relationship between chalk and three thousand lamp wicks.
Even though they saw through his thoughts, neither Qianqing's clone nor the three thousand lamp wicks offered any explanation. After all, this would increase mutual trust.
If the "Azure Origin King" and the Dark Corner Clan become one family, then there seems to be a reasonable explanation for whether he will step forward to protect them or continue to provide them with Law Pills.
"I'm leaving!"
Erin quickly left, all smiles and eagerness.
After sending away his cheap disciple, Qianqing's clone took over from the main body and used the divine kingdom to teleport back to the original location, preparing to continue searching for the battlefield.
This time, however, the three thousand lamp wicks did not leave with them.
The chalk is undergoing a transformation. To prevent anyone in the divine realm from accidentally interfering with her master, she decided to stay in the divine realm for the time being and guard it personally for peace of mind.
……
The turbulent space layer remains chaotic and disordered.
In the vast white world, irregular pieces of 'land' float and sink.
The enormous pyramid-shaped spaceship tore through the raging space storm at incredible speed. It didn't flinch when it encountered space debris, but instead crashed into it, crushing the outer fragments into dust.
However, as the search area expanded, they gradually entered the depths of the spatial turbulence layer.
The Qianqing clone, who had initially been somewhat indifferent, became cautious.
The spatial fragments of the Divine Kingdom layer can reach diameters of tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of kilometers, while the spatial torrent layer can even cause powerful immortal gods to perish.
Faced with these enormous, painless, and extremely obstructive roadblocks, he had no intention of risking his hard-won vehicle just to test the hardness of the F-grade alloy.
However, the search for the battlefield was not smooth.
The turbulent space layer is not just a single outer space, but rather a honeycomb-like hollow structure that, like a skeleton, supports the entire universe.
In this environment, the entire search process became exceptionally difficult and slow.
However, since there was no rush, Qianqing's clone had plenty of patience to wait, and even took the time to conduct several ordinary simulations.
The simulated rewards were unremarkable.
A collection of common materials mixed with a book titled "Nine Arts of Weaponcraft" would be perfect for Qianqing's clone to improve his weapon-refining skills.
While he was aboard his spaceship, passing the time and searching for battlefields, he was...
An email from the virtual universe interrupted Qianqing's thoughts, causing him to stop what he was doing with some dissatisfaction.
"trouble!"
"I already said not to bother us unless it's important, so what's this... Hongmeng???"
Qianqing's clone touched his nose, recalling his previous feat of impersonating Marquis Lieyang and defeating the Illusionary Spirit King, and roughly knew what these people were here for.
However, his impression of Hongmeng was just so-so.
Joining is fine, not joining is also fine.
Such a relatively relaxed alliance is at most a trading platform, and he doesn't really care much about the various privileges that joining the Hongmeng grants.
Forget it, I'll just have to meet him!
Qianqing's clone quickly disguised himself as Marquis Lieyang, connected to communications, and appeared in a private space covered with a large amount of lava.
Then, in the next moment...
One after another, powerful figures appeared, each a king among them. Led by the leading brown-haired powerhouse, they smiled and gestured to Qian Qing's clone.
"King of the Blazing Sun"
"The Hongmeng's special envoy? My teacher mentioned you to me, but joining you would probably bring a lot of trouble, like some forced wartime symptoms or something..."
teacher???
The several kings exchanged glances, seemingly realizing the thoughts of the Fiery Sun King before them.
He doesn't want to join the Hongmeng!
Immediately, the king with long brown hair in front spoke up, "There are many benefits to joining my Hong Alliance. More than 99% of the kings in the entire human race have joined the Hong Alliance."
"What about the remaining less than 1%?" Qianqing's clone smirked.
"Rights and obligations are often equal; you have to give something for something you get. Hongmeng is not of much help to me, so I will not join, nor is there any need for me to join."
"Or does your Hongmeng force people to join?"
