Chapter 1378 Gift
This time Qu Jianlei came out, apart from other things, the person who harmed him should not think about it.
There is no grievance or grudge at all. If he doesn't care about cheating people like this, then what kind of immortal can he be?
Xiao Moshan could only smile bitterly when he heard this, "Sir Jing Yuexin often asks about it, but I really have no clue."
"But Senior Jia did say that it seems that the empire... launched a fierce attack on the alliance."
"Are you sure it's an alliance?" Qu Jianlei was not surprised by this answer. The opponent did have a lot of talismans at the time.
Seeing that the other party was silent, he didn't ask any more questions, "By the way, do you understand what I told you before the retreat?"
Xiao Moshan nodded when he heard this, "It's in the military warehouse, that's sure."
"Okay," Qu Jianlei nodded, "I'll take care of it later... Hey, are you at the peak of A level too?"
This time, he was really surprised, because Xiao Moshan had not advanced to A level for a long time.
Not to mention compared with Xiangxue and Zijiuxian, he advanced to A level much later than Youyou.
Moreover, it is very difficult to advance to the wind attribute. Hua Scorpion has only been at level A for so long and has only just reached the highest level.
"It's just a peak, it's a bit tricky," Xiao Moshan was able to face up to the gap, "it still needs accumulation, at least ten years."
"It's also a skill to be able to make tricks," Qu Jianlei wanted to comfort him a few words, suddenly his expression changed, and he raised his hand.
"I've met Senior Yi He!"
Yi He did not appear in the form of Jiao Tan, but in the form of Taoist Gao Guan whom he met for the first time.
He raised his hand and spoke sternly, "Congratulations to fellow Taoist for ascending to the immortal throne. From now on, I will live a long life and look forward to the great road..."
After a pause, he added, "Well, I'm a casual cultivator, and I'm not good at making polite remarks either."
"But this gift of ascending to immortality, I am short of money for the time being...you took it away, and you can't blame me!"
Qu Jianlei couldn't help but laugh after hearing this, "Forget it, I don't care, this is a world where all immortal roads have disappeared."
"Senior you, on the other hand, was the first to congratulate me on my ascension to immortality. Just this kind of sentiment is better than anything else."
In fact, the empire is not lacking in this kind of social entertainment. There are rumors that some people have advanced to the highest level and can hold a feast for a hundred days.
This is understandable. Once you advance to the highest level, you don't need to care about anyone's eyes or worry about someone twisting their mouth.
But there are only a few who do this, and only those nouveau riche will show off like this.
How happy you are when you show off, and how many bad debts you will have to pay in the future!
Therefore, even if most supreme officials celebrate, they will only invite a few tables of friends to get together.
The Supreme Being cannot live without a circle, but there are really not many people who are qualified to enter this circle.
There is no similar atmosphere in Qu Jianlei's team.
When someone advances to level A or reaches the highest level, it is enough for everyone to say "congratulations".
As for gifts? That's basically nothing. They're just a bunch of desperadoes. What's the sense of ritual?
But is there even the slightest bit of it? That's not right either.
Everyone knew who was about to advance to the highest level, so they immediately ran out to search for magic weapons for their companions.
So it can only be said that the expression methods are different, one focuses on form, and the other focuses on practicality.
Qu Jianlei and others are all desperadoes, and of course they care more about practicality.
Many of those who pay attention to formality are just trying to create a scene. Even if they secretly wish the other party would die, they will not be disrespectful on the surface.
How many people would secretly curse me when they received the call "I want to get married"?
Therefore, this kind of thing cannot be generalized. It probably depends on the other party's true intentions.
However, no matter what, this sense of ritual... feels pretty good.
Maybe it’s because I’ve never done this before, and it’s just an occasional novelty.
However, Taoist Gao Guan had a straight face and spoke seriously, "Fellow Taoist, you may have misunderstood. The word "climbing to immortality" is not something that can be used casually!"
"Not every transformation into an infant can be called an immortal. That requires a pillar of immortality..."
He explained for a while, and Qu Jianlei finally understood that the white light pillar actually led the immortal cultivators to ascend?
So, it seems reasonable that the quality is better than Mrs. Jia's.
The other party was willing to explain in this way, presumably because he had considered that he did not have enough experience in this world where spiritual energy was forbidden.
But in the end, he still shook his head with laughter and tears, "I'm here to become an immortal... I might as well think about how to get out of the body."
"Out of the body...that would be difficult to deal with," Taoist Gao Guan shook his head, "That can only be done with the secret techniques of each family."
Qu Jianlei was a little surprised when he heard this, "But with Jing Yuexin and Duo Gan, the seniors have also solved the problem of suspected out-of-body problems, right?"
Taoist Gao Guan continued to shake his head: "That is a last resort. Since fellow Taoists have seen climbing the Immortal Pillar, of course they must have higher pursuits."
Higher pursuit? Qu Jianlei was very moved when he heard this, but when he thought about the other teammates, they might just be out of body...
Bah, bah, what are you thinking about? It's a bit too Versailles, isn't it? Let’s work hard to get out of body first, and then talk about other things.
Then he asked Xiao Moshan how he felt about his recent training in the mine.
Shadowless Sword and Xiao Qin both feel that they are doing well and there is no need to enter the Mysterious Mansion to practice for the time being.
Especially since there are robots mining and selling some ore from time to time, outsiders seem to be enjoying their lives.
Since these two people could be content with the status quo, Qu Jianlei stopped interfering. At night, he quietly came to the place where he had overcome the disaster.
To this day, the place is still surrounded by the military and is guarded by dedicated personnel.
He sensed for a long time but found no news about the alliance, so he went to the military area for a walk.
At this time, when he went in and out of the military area, he basically didn't have to worry about being discovered.
It turns out that the sunset can travel freely through space. This is the feeling. It is really relaxing both physically and mentally.
Qu Jianlei sensed that there was a place on the outskirts of the military region that seemed a little different.
Probably the legendary Supreme One! He didn't feel the other person's breath, but he was basically sure.
If you feel it in detail, you should be able to confirm it, but... why bother?
Alarming the military and the supreme government, making others alert, but it will not achieve any purpose, it is really unnecessary!
Then he found a teleportation array and teleported directly to the starship wandering near Tianfeng.
This starship was provided by Dogan. When he came up, only Yuanyuan and Claire were on duty.
Needless to say, the two of them were also pleasantly surprised when they saw the boss coming.
Claire looked at him carefully for a long time, and finally asked, "They say you have become shorter, why can't you tell?"
Qu Jianlei casually gave her a blow, "Where are the others?"
Most of the others are on regiment-level ships and experimental platforms, which have become everyone's mobile training base in space.
Then the starship was launched, and seven days later, it would rendezvous with the regiment-level ship far away in the Blade Star Territory.
Everyone was very happy to see the boss come out of seclusion, except Da Vinci who felt a little unnatural.
But after all, he is the best with years of experience, and his ability to resolve embarrassment is also first-rate.
"Congratulations to the boss for successfully completing this feat of reaching the highest level. I have prepared 50 billion energy blocks as a congratulatory gift."
People who can talk are like this. Even if they know that the other person has ulterior motives, they can't feel disgusted.
Qu Jianlei smiled and waved his hand, "This gift is a bit heavy. I am very grateful to you, senior, for having such a heart."
"Why is this so important?" Leonardo da Vinci shook his head disapprovingly. "A complete magic weapon costs more than this."
Co-author: In the recent magic weapon market, prices continue to soar. The starting price of a complete magic weapon is hundreds of billions.
Thinking about the previous auction of sacred artifacts, I feel that the current price... is really a bit disappointing.
However, Qu Jianlei said that he was not rewarded for his merits, "When I passed the tribulation, thanks to the senior protector, it was already a great favor."
Without Da Vinci, he still had his own team of guardians, but in this way, his base was exposed.
Theoretically, the secret of the Digital Phantom cannot be kept forever, and it will be exposed sooner or later.
However, the later it is exposed, the stronger the team becomes and its ability to withstand risks increases.
Therefore, it is not an exaggeration for him to say "big favor". Even if he admits that he owes a personal favor for this, it doesn't matter.
But the other party must have other plans, and this great favor will probably be repaid soon.
Big favor... Da Vinci couldn't help but secretly complain in his heart, I was obviously detained by Jia Shuiqing, okay?
But at this time, there was no need for him to care. Since the other party admitted that he owed the favor, everything was easy to negotiate.
He smiled and said, "Even without me, boss, you can still successfully advance to the next level. There is no need to doubt the strength of Digital Phantom."
"What I have done is nothing more than icing on the cake and I don't deserve such praise."
After a pause, he changed the topic, "It's the light beam that came later... I don't know what to call it?"
Naturally, Qu Jianlei wouldn't talk about climbing the Immortal Pillar. Wouldn't that make his teammates' Taoist minds dusted?
Just like now, Mrs. Jia is staring at herself expectantly, obviously waiting for the answer.
Qu Jianlei smiled and replied casually, "After overcoming the tribulation, there will be feedback from the will of heaven and earth. The light pillar is just a manifestation."
Mrs. Jia didn't think this was the real answer, because when she asked Xizhao for advice, Xizhao always talked about him.
But for Leonardo da Vinci, this was an answer that was very close to the truth.
Hearing this, he nodded and asked again, "There was no such celestial phenomenon when the Supreme was going through the tribulation, but there was it above the Supreme?"
The two supreme tribulations he had heard about were Ran Bingluan and Yuanyuan, but there was no such phenomenon in both times.
Qu Jianlei nodded firmly, "Yes, the Supreme cannot reach this level."
"Okay, my problem is over," Da Vinci nodded slightly, "I have something to discuss with you later."
He had already made up his mind to join, but it was really hard to say this in front of outsiders.
"Senior, wait a moment," Qu Jianlei waved his hand slightly and spoke seriously.
"Although I have benefited from seniors and do not need gifts, we still need these 50 billion energy blocks."
"Now let's consider borrowing money. I wonder if it's feasible?"
