Under One Person, your rebellious life has reached the heavens?

"I can't do it anymore."

Zhuge Yu smiled helplessly and explained the reason:

"Divination is inherently against the will of Heaven, seeking a corner of the world's future development. When my cultivation was still weak, my status was as insignificant as a feather. Even if I knew some information obtained out of selfish desire, its impact on the world as a whole was negligible."

"Now that my cultivation has reached its peak and my status is comparable to a mountain, any divination I perform will have a serious impact on the changes in the world. From the very beginning, I have been opposed by the entire world. The more I try to obtain information, the more ambiguous the information becomes. This is the world that breeds all spirits, and the restrictions that are unique to us sorcerers for the sake of worldly order and balance."

"Is that so..."

Xu San and Xu Si clenched their fists slightly; Zhuge Yu's words calmed their overheated minds a little.

Yes, if the other party could really find out Feng Baobao's whereabouts, then why would they have allowed Li Muxuan to live for more than seventy years? It doesn't make any logical sense.

"However, there is a shortcut, but you will have to bear the consequences yourselves."

Just when they were feeling lost, Zhuge Yu gave them new hope.

"I can help you two enter the inner realm and find the answers you seek. As for the price you will have to pay, that depends entirely on your courage."

"Senior, is this feasible?"

Xu San's expression changed, as if he had grasped at a lifeline.

"Ah."

Zhuge Yu gave them a detailed explanation of the process of seeking answers within the inner realm and instructed them:

"Remember to act within your capabilities. Some things are destined. What you can open will open naturally, and what you can't open, there's no need to struggle. Go ahead and do it with peace of mind. I will protect your body and soul."

"Thank you, Senior Zhuge!!!"

The current problem falls on Xu San and Xu Si. Feng Baobao's news is within their grasp. Whether they have the ability to solve it depends entirely on their cultivation of 'sexuality'.

"This is what we promised. Please take a look, Venerable Master and all the seniors."

Xu Si handed over a printed document with both hands, which contained detailed information about Li Muxuan that the company had collected.

"Let's get things done first."

Jiang Mo took the document, placed it on the desktop, and didn't rush to look at it. He firmly believed that there was no such thing as a free lunch and didn't want to owe anyone in the company a favor. He would look at it after this relationship was over.

"Young men, sit down, clear your minds, it will only take a moment."

Zhuge Yu reassured them not to be nervous. The moment the two closed their eyes, he dragged them into Xu San's inner world, which was a gray and hazy place, like a desolate wasteland on a cloudy day.

"Wow!"

As the thought of finding Feng Baobao arose, a huge fireball suddenly appeared in front of Xu San and Xu Si.

"This... senior, can it really be opened?"

Xu Si's eyelids twitched, and he felt his mouth was dry. This fireball was five or six times larger than his body size. Even if he and Xu San joined forces, they might not be able to break through it.

"Senior, could you please...?"

Seeing that Xu San had some ulterior motives, Zhuge Yu shook his head slightly and said, "Do you think I would lie to you? Watch closely."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhuge Yu reached out and touched the fireball containing Feng Baobao's information. It suddenly swelled dozens of times, exaggerated to the point of resembling a sun falling from the sky.

"Boom!!!"

Zhuge Yu unleashed a terrifying burst of power from his five fingers, instantly tearing the entire fireball apart. It collapsed like a bubble, the flames dissipating, leaving nothing but emptiness and not a trace of useful information.

"The rules of the world permeate every corner, even within your inner world. Even if I try to help, it will be meaningless, because the whole world opposes my actions."

"No matter how many fireballs I tear apart, they won't contain the message you want. In fact, the difficulty will increase exponentially, so... do it yourselves."

"I understand, thank you."

Xu San smiled helplessly. In the end, he still had to bear the consequences himself. In the grand scheme of things, Heaven would not allow any trickery or cheating.

With a loud "BOOM!!", the fireball reignited, still the same size as before, bursting with blazing flames. Just getting close to one's soul would cause excruciating burning pain.

Knowing that Zhuge Yu was there to back them up, the two brothers went all out, gritted their teeth and stepped forward, gathering their spiritual power to bombard the fireball.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!!"

The surrounding pebbles, marked by Xu San's Qi, floated into the air, bursting with extreme speed, yet remained undisturbed, like mud oxen sinking into the sea.

Xu Si used his Qi to create a weapon, a nunchaku. He wielded it with fluid grace, swift and fierce, the dense blades of energy overlapping and striking the surface of the fireball.

Soon, the nunchucks shattered, Xu Si's mouth split open, blood flowed incessantly, his face turned extremely pale, and his physical strength and soul power were more than half depleted.

Xu San's condition was also bad. His reliance on telekinesis to control all objects for attacks was useless. Instead, he was exhausted and panting heavily.

The two attacks were completely ineffective. Xu San then carved a mark on the surface of the fireball and exerted all his strength to slowly lift it more than fifty meters into the air. His legs were trembling, and he had reached the limit of his endurance. He suddenly released his mental power, and the fireball that fell from the sky crashed into the ground, but remained intact.

This scene plunged the already dwindling Xu brothers, Xu San and Xu Si, into utter despair. The answer was right before their eyes, yet they had no way to obtain it; a sense of powerlessness washed over them.

In the distance, Zhuge Yu watched this scene silently, his thoughts drifting back half a century. Back then, when he was also in such a sorry state, searching for the truth behind his parents' disappearance, he had to go through more than a hundred failures before he could finally glimpse what he was looking for, even though he had to give it his all.

Xu San and Xu Si were not born as sorcerers, so their fate was already sealed. They couldn't break the fireball, just like throwing an egg against a rock.

After a quarter of an hour, Zhuge Yu looked at the two exhausted men and gave them a hint:

"Give up. With your cultivation level, you have no chance of opening this fireball. The best option for you is to stop here and ask about something else. Maybe it won't be so difficult."

“…”

Xu San remained silent, while Xu Si wisely followed the advice, realizing that brute force alone would not break through. Immediately, he asked himself another question: he needed to at least confirm whether the baby was still alive.

"boom!"

This time, a smaller fireball appeared out of thin air in front of them, less than a meter in diameter, greatly reducing the difficulty.

"San'er, let's give it one more shot."

"it is good."

After resting for a while, the two brothers attacked again, shattering the small fireball in one fell swoop. Wisps of purple light mist overflowed from it, dissipating upon contact with their hands. At the same time, the exact information was imprinted in their minds.

Zhuge Yu pulled them back to reality. The two were drenched in cold sweat, their bodies trembling like leaves, their minds still foggy, and they hadn't recovered for a while.

"Found it?" Jiang Mo asked.

"No." Zhuge Yu shrugged helplessly.

"I am far from good enough. I hope you and the other seniors will forgive my poor performance, but the trip was worthwhile."

Xu San's right hand trembled as he pointed to the document on the tea table and said:

"There is some content inside that may be of interest to you, please take a look."

"Any other demands? Judging from your appearance, you haven't gotten the truth you wanted. I won't take advantage of you. Since this is an equal exchange, you can make one reasonable request."

Jiang Mo opened the document, and Cheng Zhen stared intently at it. They both immediately saw the old photo and the area where Li Muxuan was active: Nathan Island overseas.

The two men showed little emotional fluctuation, simply scanning the area calmly. For them, knowing the approximate coordinates was enough; killing a remnant wouldn't take much effort.

"May I ask Venerable Master, Senior Zhuge, is it possible for us to enter the Inner Realm Trial again in the future with the help of your sect?"

“Okay,” Jiang Mo agreed.

"That's enough. Thank you and all the seniors."

Xu San secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as this clue remained, they wouldn't be searching the world like headless flies.

Chapter 283 A Sudden Night Raid: The Panic of the Remnants of the Jia Shen Rebellion

"Take the two guests down to rest, Zhuge."

"Yes."

Under Jiang Mo's instructions, the weakened Xu San and Xu Si were arranged to rest in the nearby dormitory downstairs. He gradually finished reading the document and had a complete understanding of Li Muxuan's deeds over the past seventy years. To his surprise, he never thought that this beast would escape to this place.

"Uncle-Master, shall I go and gather the men?"

Chengzhen was eager to try. He knew that his martial uncle was about to go on an expedition, and he volunteered to follow him.

"No need. Just take Zhuge and Jin'er with you. The four of us will be enough."

moment.

Lu Jin, who was still in meditation, suddenly received the news and rushed to the scene excitedly. Zhuge Yu also returned, and everyone was there.

"Let's go."

"Go wipe them out completely."

Jiang Mo opened the Heavenly Kingdom, inviting them inside to wait, and the colorless vortex suddenly closed.

With more than an hour to go before dawn, Jiang Mo used the Qi coordinates he had left on North Kolai Island as a reference point to use 'Human World Within Reach' to traverse more than 10,000 kilometers and arrive at the scene.

After learning the relative directions of Nathan and North Colley Islands, Jiang Mo rode his Qi and flew across the boundless sea. Due to the 12-hour time difference, the nearby sea was in the evening.

"Boom!"

Jiang Mo moved at an extremely fast speed, skimming low over the ocean, the gale cheering as he surged forward, creating a straight wave that reached Nathan Island.

.........

Inside the palace, Qu Tong seized the body left behind by Chen Duo after the transplant and entered the Body Refinement Furnace. She read the body's information, modified the damaged meridians, and maximized the power of the Primal Gu.

At 6 p.m., Ma Xianhong returned to Nasen. All the guards belonging to the ancient kingdom had their memories erased and were now under the personal control of Qu Tong.

Wang was in dire straits, her limbs were chained to an iron cross, she was in a coma, and her personality and consciousness were erased. She had been sent to the Holy Forest and was about to begin the ritual to receive power.

As a puppet of the divine tree, the king's blood and body were undoubtedly the best vessel.

In the forbidden area, which was strictly guarded by layers of islanders, only four figures stood silently watching: Thirty-Four, Seventeen, Qu Tong, and Ma Xianhong.

The soil around the sacred tree was hollowed out several meters, revealing one golden face after another inside. They seemed to be connected to the roots, yet they also seemed to be living beings existing independently in various places, which made the people who saw it feel terrified.

Looking at the ugly, wriggling tentacles at the bottom, Seventeen frowned slightly and said:

"This is the true appearance of the divine tree? It's completely different from what I imagined."

"You idiot, you've lived here for so many years and you didn't even know?"

"When the kings of each generation died or were replaced by other challengers, they would be buried under this tree, forming new nutrients that forged a monster capable of controlling the entire island."

"So they're all alive?"

Ma Xianhong felt a chill run through his body. He saw a face as old and withered as tree bark calling to him, and intermittent, seductive words coming from his mind.

"They can't be considered alive. The figures you see now are merely the evolution of the tree. It absorbs the memories, emotions, and consciousness of its people, blending them all together to form this unique sum of consciousness. Every tendril you see is actually one of its blooming flowers."

After gaining Wang Yuwei's memories, Qu Tong became extremely familiar with the divine tree.

"Then, let's get started."

The newly arranged Qi formation continuously draws power from the divine tree, channeling it into the king's corpse in the form of light particles that trace curved arcs in the sky.

A faint, mournful cry echoed across the island. The tree struggled, but had no vessel to harness its power, and its immense strength began to dissipate at a visible rate.

"What...what's wrong with me?"

"My head hurts so much..."

"Is it the trees calling to us?"

The islanders surrounding the palace clutched their aching chests, clearly sensing that something was about to happen, yet powerless to stop it.

A dozen seconds later, the branches of the divine tree began to disintegrate from the edges, and the speed increased rapidly, like dry charcoal ash, inevitably decomposing. Strands of golden energy flowed, cleansing the king's body.

The ceremony was conducted in secret, progressing from one percent to one hundred percent, taking a full hour. The royal corpse controlled by Qu Tong obtained the complete power of the divine tree, and with every move she made, there were extraordinary phenomena in the world. Every blade of grass and tree on this island, and its complex terrain, became her armor and weapons.

That was absolutely the strongest physical body she had ever acquired, without exception, even surpassing the original Gu body cultivated by Chen Duo.

"It's done, twenty!!"

Seventeen and Thirty-Four were extremely excited. Having seized the power of the island, they were now the true masters of the island and possessed the ability to protect themselves.

As for the tree whose power had been drained, it had begun to rot from its source, and the lifelike human figures it had nurtured within it vanished one after another, its roots and trunk turning to ashes.

"A perfect creation..."

Qu Tong murmured softly, fully enjoying the clone bursting with boundless vitality. She possessed authority surpassing that of all previous kings, becoming the bane of the tree and able to control all the matter that constituted the island with a single thought.

"That's great. Please check carefully. Is there anything unusual about your body?"

Thirty-four cautiously said that he felt inexplicably uneasy and suspected that the tree had made a backup plan, but that was not the case.

"No... its consciousness can't corrupt me." Qu Tong's lips curled up slightly, her mood extremely pleasant.

"Boom!"
