Big Data Cultivation
Chapter 2376 - 2378: Parting Ways
Yi Jue brought quite a lot of things this time, just among the space mech armor, there are seven or eight sets, and two disc-shaped warships. One of them has a diameter of about two hundred seventy-eight meters, which in the space fleet is equivalent to the existence of an assault ship.
However, the warship’s damage rate is about one-third, and the remaining two-thirds are not entirely intact either.
Fortunately, the front cockpit and central control room are undamaged, retaining the essence.
Yi Jue apologized as she noticed him staring at one of the ships, "This is the most intact one I could find... there’s a bigger ship, but it’s more heavily damaged, and I didn’t take it because my storage space is rather limited."
Feng Jun knew that in the Insect World, the main battleships can reach up to a thousand meters in diameter, so he replied with a smile, "This is quite good enough, larger warships are limited in number, and the sudden disappearance of one without even the wreckage would easily alert others to something unusual."
Then, he turned to the smaller disc-shaped warship - its diameter was about eighty meters. He knew the purpose of this warship, roughly equivalent to a fire support ship.
This fire support ship also had external damage, but it seemed that the damage was superficial, and it was "intact" in a structural sense. He scanned with his Divine Sense, nodding with a smile, "It’s good stuff, is it because... the energy is depleted?"
"Yes," Yi Jue nodded, "Originally, they intended for the ship to self-detonate, and despite everything, their fighting spirit is truly admirable."
Her admiration was genuinely heartfelt. Although the humans in the Insect World do not practice cultivation, they fight without hesitation, and if they couldn’t win, they would opt for self-detonation. Even though she understood that it is a choice of desperation, the courage of these warriors still garnered her respect.
Feng Jun blinked curiously, asking, "So how did you manage to seize this intact warship?"
"I knocked out the person responsible for triggering the explosion," Yi Jue casually replied, then added after a pause, "Don’t worry, no one noticed. Those mundane technologies didn’t monitor it, and once the ship is inside a storage bag, there’s even less concern."
"Thank you then," Feng Jun cupped his hands in gratitude and spoke earnestly, "I indeed need these, because the faction I lean towards supporting in the decaying law realm doesn’t allow me to use the power of cultivators... these mundane technologies greatly aid me."
Compared to his earlier words, he now divulged some truths.
However, he believed Yi Jue could understand, as they encountered similar situations in the Insect World.
Yi Jue nodded silently, understanding that Feng Jun’s words matched her expectations of the situation—the decaying law realm naturally meant relying on technology.
In the next moment, another matter occurred to her, "Speaking of exposure, we might have already been exposed in the Insect World."
"Hmm?" Feng Jun raised an eyebrow at the comment, asking curiously, "Exposed in the Insect World? By whom?"
"I don’t know, maybe someone wasn’t careful," Yi Jue replied dismissively, shaking her head.
Truth be told, she wasn’t particularly concerned about exposure in the Insect World, and many cultivators shared similar sentiments: being exposed to humans isn’t a big deal, as opposed to exposure to insects—it’s just that insects’ combat tactics target cultivators.
"They didn’t discover spiritual energy, just speculated which faction developed ’Super Gene Warriors’ capable of space combat."
Feng Jun understood the mindset of Tianqin cultivators, the priority was to ensure the mother realm wasn’t disturbed, thus eliminating the insect race was necessary. As for the human race army, no one believed they posed any threat to cultivators.
Moreover, being of the same human race, cultivators were much less wary of them.
"Super Gene Warriors," Feng Jun chuckled wryly, shaking his head, "They’re quite good at guessing."
"By the way, I also acquired something else," Yi Jue took out a storage talisman, "A quantum computer and servers, heard they have strong computational abilities, do you want them?"
"Of course," Feng Jun’s face lit up with joy, reaching out to take them, "I’ll send you over in a while, getting more is definitely beneficial."
"Send me over in a while?" Yi Jue turned her eyes, asking curiously, "You’re not worried about the security of White Pebble Beach?"
"I’ll also go over in a few days," Feng Jun said solemnly, "But next time, there won’t be battles... I intend to mine energy blocks."
Yi Jue contemplated and then agreed, "Alright then, you go ahead and send me over first."
Feng Jun reorganized for a while, and as the night was approaching, he first sent her to the Insect World, then planned to return to Earth—he had promised Sofia that he would teach her yoga after leveling up and share some spiritual energy with her. Now that things were settled, it was time to fulfill that promise.
At that moment, Liu Yiyi came to report that the True Immortal of the Wei family, Zuojiu, was seeking an audience—though a True Immortal seeking an audience could simply send out their Divine Sense, it might seem disrespectful to the host.
In other words, Zuojiu True Immortal’s visit was conducted with full respect.
Feng Jun’s face turned dark: Just what he feared, had come.
He wasn’t exactly afraid of Zhuangjiu the True Immortal, but the power of the Wei Family was a bit unusual. However, they hadn’t done anything excessive, so even if he wanted to deal a hard blow, he couldn’t find a reason.
But the threat of the Wei Family objectively existed, otherwise he wouldn’t have invited so many people to protect him during his breakthrough.
Just like today, he deliberately waited until dusk to send Yi Jue away because he thought the Wei Family might have some reaction. Only when he felt he could return to the Earth Realm, did he send away Yi Jue the True Immortal. Unexpectedly, Zhuangjiu True Immortal came at this time.
Normally, he wouldn’t be too afraid of Zhuangjiu the True Immortal, but he had just sent a group of cultivators into the Void. Although he made a lot of Spirit Stones, the synchronized time between the Earth Realm and Tianqin meant that once the bidirectional gate was closed, the dimensional separation still existed, but the power to erase during the Stone Ring teleport was gone.
Without the power of erasure, Feng Jun lost a major killing move. Of course, he had other cards, like Guardian’s aura traction, so he wasn’t too afraid, but... that could only be used once, and he’d feel distressed if he used it.
Anyway, as a Nascent Soul High Stage, following the rules and requesting a meeting, he couldn’t refuse to see him.
After Zhuangjiu the True Immortal came in, his first request was to dismiss the people around him.
Feng Jun felt a bit uneasy inside because he had always been cautious. Although his people had no combat power against a Nascent Soul High Stage, their presence made a difference.
Without anyone around, there’s always the feeling that the other might try something underhanded.
However, though he felt insecure, he didn’t show it and let the others leave, feeling slightly relieved—if he’s up to something, at least it wouldn’t involve others.
As soon as his people left, two Nascent Soul auras enveloped the area, belonging to Chao Cheng True Immortal and Nishang True Immortal.
Yet, facing these two monitoring auras, Zhuangjiu the True Immortal unexpectedly released a Spiritual Qi Shield and then sneakily asked, "Mountain Master Feng, I heard your Teleportation Art is incredibly mysterious?"
Upon hearing this, Feng Jun suddenly realized and couldn’t help but laugh. He nodded, "Indeed, if I’ve been to Lingyang Realm, I can teleport there anytime... which is actually bad for the Wei Family."
Zhuangjiu True Immortal’s mouth twitched, thinking, if you have such ability, why didn’t you say so earlier?
He had always been committed to inviting Feng Jun to Lingyang. Last time, he got the deduction result and felt a bit regretful—if he could invite Feng Jun for on-site guidance, even spending more Spirit Stones to increase the success probability of the Chestnut Pear Tree’s rebirth would be worth it.
Of course, he understood the considerations and frustrations of both sides, feeling like he was in a difficult position.
However, upon returning to Lingyang, he made his suggestion: a few Nascent Soul True Immortals from the Seven Sects and Eighteen Paths really don’t matter; they just protect Feng Jun and can’t move around freely—should we reconsider?
Being at Nascent Soul Eighth Layer, his suggestions in the Wei Family carried weight, so they began considering this possibility.
Once they started thinking about it, they had to do a risk assessment.
However, upon reviewing Feng Jun’s related information, they were shocked to find that the risk assessment... couldn’t be passed!
Even though the Wei Family might be secluded and focused on development, their information wouldn’t be too poor—being one of the Eight Clans.
And Feng Jun’s Teleportation Divine Ability had been noticed by many. The battle at Lingmu Sect’s battlefield had too many witnesses and couldn’t be overlooked. Moreover, Feng Jun had recently transported so many True Immortals into the Insect World, belonging to several different forces.
Based on the collected information, the Wei Family was instantly frightened: if we invite him to Lingyang Realm, and he freely comes and goes... wouldn’t it be like an unguarded place?
If the Wei Family intended to invite him over and then forcibly retain him, Feng Jun’s ability wouldn’t be much of a threat—he couldn’t leave, so what else could he plan?
But the Wei Family had no such plans, just wanting to invite Feng Jun to help treat the Chestnut Pear Tree, and the rest would depend on the situation—if possible, they’d leave him there, but according to their analysis... with the protection of the Seven Sects and Eighteen Paths, it’s basically impossible.
After synthesizing the latest information, the Wei Family decided that inviting Feng Jun wasn’t a good idea after all.
Zhuangjiu True Immortal was still a bit unwilling because he really wanted to invite Feng Jun—even bringing a few True Immortals would be fine, so he specially came to ask Feng Jun: Can you really go back to the places you’ve been?
Now, hearing Feng Jun’s acknowledgment with his own ears, he felt slightly collapsed, couldn’t help but complain loudly, "Why didn’t you say earlier? I wouldn’t have forcibly recommended to the clan to allow you to bring True Immortals!"
Feng Jun gave him a strange look, "Didn’t even investigate my abilities properly and blame me for not saying it? Do you feel justified? I told you the Wei Family’s intelligence system is lacking... and you’re not satisfied, the Wei Family is really declining."
