There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality

After Zhixin finished speaking, Quan Wei, who had been silent all the time, did not wait for Wang Ping to respond and said, "You all have practiced for tens of thousands of years, so you must have some connections. They cooperate with each other, but also guard against each other."

Wang Ping agreed with this. All the cultivators in the Five Realms have practiced for thousands or even tens of thousands of years. The personal connections they have established since the beginning of their practice are almost spread across every corner of the starry sky. As long as it does not harm their own interests, they may continue to cooperate even if they are in a hostile relationship.

The best proof is the Taoist Zhixin in front of him, which also proves that the Star God Alliance is indeed very complicated. Each of the five realms has its own ideas, but they are only temporarily subservient to the powerful force. Of course, the fundamental reason is that this "force" is currently in line with their basic interests and is willing to stand up for them, so they are naturally happy to see it happen.

This is the truly complex situation, not a simple either-friend-or-enemy situation. That is why human nature is the truly terrifying existence!

"If, I mean if, if Wei Ling and Qian Xi asked you to take action against us, what would you do?" Wang Ping did not dwell on the two questions raised by Zhi Xin, but asked another question.

Zhixin fell into deep thought after hearing this, and the rat demon Quanwei was also in the same situation. After a long while, Zhixin said, "The current situation is that the arrow is on the string and has to be shot. As long as Wei Ling and Qian Xi dare to take the lead, most of the cultivators in the alliance will definitely respond to him for their own interests."

Wang Ping was not surprised by this result, but he still felt a little regretful. He actually wanted to use this matter to make a deal with other Star Gods in the Five Realms and take the opportunity to win over a group of Star God cultivators.

The rat demon Quan Wei added: "The Star God Alliance has grown so powerful under the watchful eyes of the True Lords. Everyone is a smart person and it is impossible for them to hesitate in the face of such a major event. Otherwise, they will become fish on your chopping board."

Those who can be promoted to the fifth level do not lack patience, vision and control over future situations. Once they set a goal and release the desires in their hearts, they will not sing against it at the critical moment.

Wang Ping was silent for a few breaths, staring at Zhixin and said, "You just said that they plan to clean up the spikes that Yuanwu arranged at the border outside the domain. Are you referring to the four realms cultivators of Xuanmen and Tianmen?"

"That's right. Senior Yuanwu made a brilliant move. He cleverly used the fear of the True Lords about the outer borders and placed the four-level cultivators from Xuanmen and Tianmen there, effectively curbing their rapid development. I originally thought that Senior Yuanwu would have another move, but I didn't expect it to come to an abrupt end. I guess he encountered some problem."

Zhixin had been observing Wang Ping's expression while he was saying these words. Seeing that Wang Ping showed no expression, he continued, "Now that Senior Yuanwu has retired, they are naturally eager to pull out these nails and see how you react. It is also possible that they deliberately spread the rumor so that the four-level cultivators from various sects can retreat on their own."

After listening to this, Wang Ping just nodded without making any comments, and then repeated another question from before, "You haven't told me yet, have other five-level star gods been born in the past thousand years?"

Zhixin replied, "Ever since we discovered that extraterritorial energy can be used for cultivation, we have been very cautious. We even formulated corresponding laws and dealt with many cultivators who over-refined extraterritorial energy. We also strictly controlled the four-level star gods. But all this changed more than a thousand years ago."

"I don't remember exactly when it happened, but I felt like I had just dealt with a few extraterritorial life forms. When I turned around, I found that everyone around me was practicing with extraterritorial energy."

"It is perfectly compatible with the Star God Core, allowing us to cultivate at a rapid pace and become even more powerful. I don't know how many people have tried it in the past thousand years. As for how many people have been promoted to the fifth level, everyone is very secretive about it!"

Wang Ping hated being told lies, but he still listened patiently and said with a smile, "Promoting to the fifth realm is a good thing, why do you have to keep it a secret?"

Zhixin just smiled when he heard this, but didn't continue talking.

Wang Ping did not ask any further questions. He withdrew his gaze from Zhixin and looked at Quan Wei beside him, and asked, "Do you two want to know something from me?"

Quan Wei immediately bowed and asked, "I want to know what the attitudes of the True Lords are towards the Star God Alliance?"

Wang Ping looked at Quan Wei thoughtfully. He didn't expect Quan Wei to ask this question, but he answered without hesitation: "If the Star God Alliance is willing to talk, we welcome it. If not, we are not afraid."

Quan Wei was a member of the meeting, and one of the three demon cultivators who "often went into seclusion". He only needed to attend the meeting to know the answer to this question, but he would rather ask Wang Ping at an impromptu gathering than get too entangled with the meeting.

"Can I withdraw from a meeting like Yuanwu did?"

Quan Wei asked again, and perhaps because he was afraid that Wang Ping would think too much, he explained: "I am not good at speaking, and I don't know how to guess other people's thoughts. I just want to live alone and train a few tribesmen so that someone can inherit my position after I die."

Wang Ping smiled and asked, "Do you also want to explore the land outside the domain?"

Quan Wei shook his head, "I don't have such great ambitions. I just want to continue to survive."

Wang Ping turned his gaze towards Zhi Xin.

Zhixin bowed and said, "I have no problem, but I hope you will not forget your promise to me."

Wang Ping nodded and immediately cut off the projection signal.

After Wang Ping disappeared, Quan Wei took out a communication token from his arms. As a gray halo flashed on the communication token, the surrounding environment changed rapidly and turned into a bright hut in a blink of an eye. Quan Wei and Zhi Xin sat cross-legged on the futon opposite each other. There was a half-finished chess game on the coffee table between them.

"Just like Quan Wen said, this Changqing Zhenjun seems easy to talk to on the surface, but he is actually a deep-minded person." Quan Wei picked up a black piece and placed it on the chessboard and said in a low voice.

"What does it have to do with us? You need to be patient and control your inner desires. As long as we have no desires, even if this starry sky is shattered by them, we can continue to live. As long as we are alive, there are infinite possibilities. Don't be like those fools who only know how to show off their abilities and end up dead." Zhixin picked up the white piece calmly and followed it down.

"It's a pity that there are too few people in this world who can see things in a positive way. Most of them are dominated by the desires in their hearts." Quan Wei made a move immediately after that, and then asked, "You really don't think the Star God Alliance will be a success? This is the best opportunity since the rise of humanity!"

Zhixin shook his head and said, "The best chance was when Changqing Zhenjun was promoted, but they gave up because of Senior Yuanwu's affection. If I were here, I would kill Senior Yuanwu first, and then go to war with the other Zhenjuns directly. Then Changqing Zhenjun would have no chance of promotion at all. But they chose to start when several Zhenjuns gathered together, dreaming of solving the problem once and for all. What's more, they talked about siege. By then, no one would know who would be sieging whom!"

"Da~"

He dropped a piece, shook his head and sighed again, "They are too naive. They can't beat Senior Yuanwu, let alone the other True Lords. Senior Yuanwu looks compassionate, but he is actually more ruthless than anyone else. If necessary, he can get rid of us all without blinking an eye."

Quan Wei laughed and retorted, "We are not in their position, so we don't know their worries. If we were in their position, we might be afraid to act. And this matter is not simple. I didn't expect them to fight against True Lord Lieyang openly when True Lord Changqing was promoted. It's just... you are right, they are sometimes too naive. But, if you are determined, you True Lords will definitely act faster than them."

"Maybe we are all wrong. They are deliberately showing weakness and then maybe they will make a big splash!" Zhixin said jokingly.

"It's really possible!"

"It's just a joke. How can it be possible? If it's true, they are even more stupid. Do they think they can deal with the True Lords by plotting and making a big splash?"

"You should probably talk to them!"

"You just said that I am not in the right position. The way I practice is destined to be incompatible with theirs, so naturally I cannot be in the right position either." Zhixin responded casually: "You are also right in one point. This matter reveals something strange, so we should try to stay away from it, so as not to be deceived."

"Not betting within the alliance? Or betting with the True Lords?" Quan Wei asked.

"This matter is not true. Let's use the old method and protect ourselves. The True Lords are not easy to deal with, and it is not easy to talk to those crazy people." Zhixin shook his head.

"OK!"…

An eco-zone dojo in outer space.

Wang Ping, who withdrew from the temporary gathering, immediately took out the communication token to contact Lieyang and Tiangong, and agreed that the fifteen Zhongzhous would meet near Jupiter in the future.

Then, Wang Ping used the wood spirit energy to sense the starry sky outside the Zhongzhou meteorite belt, but he still found nothing for two consecutive days. Thinking of the characteristics of the "stealth" ability, Wang Ping temporarily gave up the plan to pursue the hidden clues of the Star God Alliance.

In the next two days, Wang Ping was preparing for Jupiter to clear Huishan's consciousness. On the fifth day, he suddenly sensed that Li Miaolin was burning incense to worship him.

Li Miaolin brought Wang Ping an unexpected but expected event. Taoist Miaoqing, who had been stationed at the border outside the territory, asked her disciples to bring a message to Li Miaolin, saying that she wanted to return to Taiyan Sect.

Wang Ping considered for a long time and did not refuse. Now that he had reached the fifth realm, the fourth realm was just a tool for him. Since there were ready-made tools to use, he naturally would not refuse.

But the prerequisite is that we need to first examine whether this Taoist Miaoqing is a puppet like Cheng Xi.

On the second day after this incident, Li Miaolin burned incense and prayed again. This time he brought Wang Ping a piece of news that surprised him. Someone came to see him through the relationship with the demon clan and told him that the Star God Alliance was planning to stop the True Lords!

"Didn't you say that no one in the Star God Alliance would defect in such a situation? What is going on here?" Yu Lian asked after hearing the news.

Wang Ping smiled and replied: "Nothing is absolute. Maybe some people in the Star God Alliance do not have the same goals, but this is a good thing for us anyway."

"Why don't you inform the other True Lords?" Yu Lian reminded.

"They might get the news faster than I do."

"But they didn't tell you?"

"Ha ha!"

Wang Ping laughed, looked at Yu Lian and said, "It's not that complicated. The attitude towards the Star God Alliance has been discussed in the previous meeting. Since it is a matter of discussion, there is no need to say more. We should still use the old method and proceed step by step. After all, this matter is led by Lieyang and Tiangong, so we can just watch from the sidelines."

"You are much more confident than before." Yu Lian suddenly said this.

"Before, I had no choice, but now it's others who have no choice. Look, I didn't even express my opinion, but someone came to me on their own initiative."

After Wang Ping finished speaking, he stretched out his left hand and used the "Sky Eye" to deduce what would happen next.

Yu Lian looked at Wang Ping who was in a trance, and flew out of the ecological zone's barrier. She used the spirit of water to lure the spiritual creatures under the starry sky to come over and refine the spirituality in their bodies and devour them.

Soon it was the time agreed with Lieyang and Tiangong. Yu Lian, who had been wandering around, had already laid on Wang Ping's shoulder and was waiting. When Wang Ping woke up from his meditation, she asked, "What did you calculate?"

“It’s chaos!”

"So how long have you been doing that?"

"It's interesting to find clues in the chaos."

Wang Ping looked up at the deep space of the universe and suddenly said for no apparent reason: "The rule of the True Lords may seem orderly, but it is actually too primitive. The universe and the stars do not even have a calendar or a specific time."

"What do you think about that?"

Yulian asked.

Wang Ping shook his head, "Not yet, I'll talk about it later."

As he spoke, a 'transfer talisman' appeared inadvertently in his left hand. As the talisman was activated, he disappeared with Yu Lian. When he reappeared, he was under a quiet starry sky. In the distance, a blue planet was emitting a faint glow. Under the starry sky, the substantial aura of wood spirits formed a beautiful star ring around the planet, and there were dozens of small planets distributed in the star ring.

This is Jupiter. There is a very clear light green track on its orbit around the sun. The track has a strong suction force, making the surrounding space somewhat unstable.

Looking around again, there is no end to the interweaving of black and white light. Only the faintly gleaming starry sky in the depths hangs in an unknown area, narrating the vicissitudes and eternity of the universe in loneliness, yet inexplicably attractive.

“This vast universe reminds me of my insignificance every moment!”

Wang Ping was inspired and hid inside the wood spirit energy, carefully feeling every inch of darkness in the surrounding starry sky. Countless transfer arrays unfolded silently in the wood spirit energy under the starry sky.

After several hours.

Wang Ping did not find any breath of the fifth-level star gods under this starry sky. Suddenly, a fire light came from far away, like a meteor shot out from the depths of the universe, accompanied by a hot breath, igniting the starry orbit of Jupiter.

It was an extremely huge golden crow!

It’s Lord Lieyang.

"What a disgusting firebird!" Yu Lian climbed down from Wang Ping's shoulder and wrapped her arms around Wang Ping's wrist. As soon as she finished speaking, a golden light appeared out of nowhere under the dark starry sky in the distance.

This was naturally Tiangong. He was standing on the golden lotus, emitting a strong golden spiritual aura. He led Tiangong to forcibly break through the space and came to Lieyang in a blink of an eye.

"Darkness is indeed a good hiding place, but darkness cannot hide from the sun!"

The majestic voice of the scorching sun echoed in the starry sky, and boundless light emerged with dense sunflower patterns under the starry sky, illuminating the surrounding starry sky.

And those who hide in the darkness will naturally have nowhere to hide. (End of this chapter)
