Chapter 834: Too Poor Cultivation (Second Update)
The first one in a thousand years? The corners of Qu Jianlei's mouth twitched. This is really a once-in-a-thousand-year wait, but I look like a grass python hero?
He said calmly, "This is my second time entering."
The voice was silent for a while and then spoke, "Last time you were only in the foundation building stage, this...'Master Shao Guo Xin' you know, right?"
Just say that my cultivation level is low and I can't catch anyone's attention. Qu Jianlei cursed bitterly.
However, after all, it is a happy event, so he does not care so much, "As long as I agree to the trial, everyone will be expelled?"
"Of course..." the voice stopped mid-sentence.
After two seconds, it said sarcastically again, "The energy is a bit insufficient. If you use it reluctantly, it may cause damage to the cave."
"Um, how many spirit stones do you have?"
"There shouldn't be any spiritual stones," Qu Jianlei stood there expressionlessly, but his mind was moving violently.
"I've never seen this thing before, but it does have some energy blocks. I wonder if it can be used?"
"Energy block..." the voice muttered, and it took a long time before saying, "Forget about this low energy."
"It's a pity that there are some spirit stones as rewards that I can't easily use, and... there aren't many."
When Qu Jianlei heard this, his heart moved slightly. Lingshi as a reward?
The last time he accompanied Xiao Baitian through the level, he actually got a yellow stone.
There was a thin protective film on the stone, and there was also a vague aura, so he preserved the stone.
There is no doubt that what can be put together with those treasures is definitely a good thing. I don't know if it is a spiritual stone.
But now, he is suppressing his thoughts forcibly, trying not to let the other party find out - there aren't many of them anyway, right?
The voice waited for a while and found that there was no reaction from him, so it said, "Forget it, it's just a little damaged... ugh."
"Since you plan to start the trial, then I will expel people. Get ready, I will start the ten-breath countdown."
"Wait a minute," Qu Jianlei hurriedly stopped him, "Everyone will be expelled...except me?"
"Of course," the voice replied angrily, "those spiritual beasts are part of the trial and rewards, so they can't be expelled as well, right?"
Qu Jianlei quickly asked, "Where are those mechanical equipment?"
"Those... just leave them alone," the voice replied reluctantly, "How about you keep them for yourself?"
After all, the energy loss was still too great, and the spiritual energy was replaced by that weird "elementary breath", which was much lower-end.
This can be possible! Qu Jianlei nodded secretly. There are still warships and other things in the Mysterious Mansion. "Can I keep the talisman?"
"You are overthinking," the voice replied angrily, "I want to expel people, not help you rob!"
Okay then... Qu Jianlei asked again, "How long will the trial last?"
"It depends on the situation. The standard trial for the golden elixir period is three months. It may be longer or shorter."
"Of course, it's hard to tell how fast it will be if you fail the trial... You have a lot of problems."
There must be so many questions! Qu Jianlei asked again, "During my trial, will the Mysterious Mansion be hidden, or will it continue to be revealed to others?"
"Why should the cave be hidden? What you saw at the beginning is what it is."
"But this is not appropriate. If those heretics are expelled, will they attack Mi Mansion?"
"Well, attack..." the voice hesitated and said, "A Nascent Soul-level attack can't shake it at all..."
"The problem is, there are attacks from above the Nascent Soul," Qu Jianlei interrupted the voice.
He didn't know what kind of artillery fire a Nascent Soul-level attack was equivalent to. Maybe... a Star Destroyer Cannon was almost enough?
In the Empire, the Star Destroyer Cannon is considered a strategic weapon, but when it comes to the ultimate weapon, it is far from being considered.
And if the firepower is not enough, you can just gather it in quantity and fire dozens or hundreds of Star Destroyer cannons at the same time. I wonder if you are afraid.
Three months is enough for the empire to mobilize a considerable number of Star Destroyer Cannons.
By that time, I am afraid that I will have no choice but to be buried with Mi Fu.
"You said, the energy is not enough, will it affect the protection?"
"There's nothing we can do about it," the voice replied angrily, "We'll both die together... I'm not afraid!"
But I was unwilling to give in. Qu Jianlei said tentatively, "I am a true cultivator who can speak Chinese dialect. Why don't you let me refine Mifu?"
"Don't even think about it!" the voice refused without hesitation, "The ownership of this cave does not belong to you, it is for the benefit of all cultivators!"
"Tch," Qu Jianlei snorted disapprovingly, "Now that you've been tortured like this, how dare you say this?"
"How many years has it been since there was no true cultivator? You are scheming for the enemy!"
The voice was silent, and after a while he said, "No matter what, you have to pass the trial first."
After a pause, it added, "Even if I promise you to refine it, your cultivation is far from enough."
Qu Jianlei was speechless. He did receive a surprise, but the surprise was so big that it was a bit difficult for him to handle.
"If, I mean, if you don't accept the trial this time, do you still have to enter the hall next time?"
"Of course," the voice replied without hesitation, "this is the trial hall... although it has been changed into a mess."
Seeing that he didn't respond, the voice began to urge again, "Are you going to accept the trial now? Answer yes or no!"
Qu Jianlei was silent, of course it was a good thing to have a clearing trial, but I'm afraid it won't work this time. Just think about the consequences.
Everyone has been expelled from the Mysterious Mansion... Of course this is great, but what happens next? Will life be difficult to live by?
This will definitely become a big sensation in the empire
There are not only intern teachers and students in Mifu, but also a large number of troops.
In addition to the treasures and opportunities that awakened people need, there are also supernatural rice grown by the military and others!
As long as people outside take a little inventory, they will find that he is the only missing person, which cannot be concealed at any cost.
By that time, there is no need to say more about what will happen to his comrades-in-arms.
More importantly, he will definitely become the target of all awakened people in the empire and will be pursued by an overwhelming force.
Moreover, the Empire would quickly dispatch Star Destroyer Cannons, so the possibility of him and Mi Fu surviving three months... was slim.
That kind of scene... Qu Jianlei simply couldn't imagine it.
So he could only change his perspective, "If my companions and I follow the side door this time, can you help us cover it up?"
"Not trying, but following the heresy..." The voice also fell into silence.
Obviously, this was against its knowledge, and it took a while before it expressed it again.
"Since you don't want to do the trial, don't go in. It will easily cause confusion to my cognition and logic."
"But...it's already here," Qu Jianlei defended, "and it's a bit eye-catching to quit now."
It's not that he is reluctant to part with the harvest in Mi Mansion, it's actually that he has already fallen into Lai Yin's favor.
If you turn around now, it’s easy to be underestimated, right?
The voice was silent for a long time before replying, "It's just this once, don't go too far."
The exchange finally ended, and Lai Yin accompanied the five people into the maze.
This trip to Mi Mansion lasted for fifteen days. When the time was up, six people were sent out one after another.
Because no one followed the students in the trial, they didn’t gain much.
Among them, the one who apparently gained the most was Bentley, who concentrated on hunting all kinds of exotic beasts.
Ziheng Zhigao came specially to greet the six people. When he saw them, he breathed a sigh of relief.
In any case, nothing happened to these people in the Mysterious Mansion, and their biggest worry could finally be put away.
When sending them off, he couldn't help but ask, "Everyone, how many of you are supreme?"
He couldn't feel that there were three people in total who had the highest level of cultivation. It couldn't be that all three were supreme, right?
Qu Jianlei and others did not answer at all, but Lai Yin smiled slightly, "Sir, why do you need to live so clearly?"
Zi Heng remained silent and did not ask any more questions.
To be continued...
