Chapter 463: Current State of the Group — Beishan Baiwei's Plea for Help
After sparring with the Lord of Five Hun, Lu Qingshan merely casually sent a message to the other super beings of the human race, then continued his seclusion, trying to draw some inspiration from the secret art created by the Lord of Five Hun.
It had to be said, the 'Five Beasts Great Extinction' displayed by the Lord of Five Hun was indeed very powerful, and its method of fusion was indeed somewhat more exquisite than Lu Qingshan's 'Three Elements Return to Ruin Slash'.
So after Lu Qingshan sparred with the Lord of Five Hun for several months, it was also greatly beneficial for him in improving his own secret art.
Just like that, Lu Qingshan went into closed-door cultivation for a full several decades — under the time acceleration within the Black-Striped Shi Zhu space, that was several hundred thousand years — before he had fully digested and absorbed all the insights gained from sparring with the Lord of Five Hun, and used this opportunity to improve his own secret art.
After this, Lu Qingshan was just about to continue his closed-door seclusion, when Beishan Baiwei in the chat group suddenly sought him out.
【Beishan Baiwei: @Lu Qingshan, Group Leader, are you there? I have something I'd like to ask your help with!】
After receiving Beishan Baiwei's message, Lu Qingshan's consciousness quickly connected and entered the Myriad Heavens Chat Group.
The others in the group had originally been chatting idly, but upon seeing Beishan Baiwei's plea for help, they too quickly fell silent.
After all, idle chatter could happen anytime, but a plea for help like this couldn't be delayed.
【Lu Qingshan: @Beishan Baiwei, what is it?】
After seeing Beishan Baiwei's request for help, although Lu Qingshan did not immediately take everything upon himself and agree, he wasn't overly worried either.
Although there were indeed many powerful beings in the Desolate Era world whose strength far exceeded his current self, Beishan Baiwei was still within the Three Realms at this time.
Judging by the plot of the original work, the strongest within the Three Realms now were the Heart Demon Lord, who had merged with the Heavenly Dao, and the Source Elder, who had been disguised by the 'Heart Divine General' from outside the Three Realms.
The strength of these two was indeed extremely powerful, but judging by the points required for cross-world transmission within the chat group, the World Gods and Chaos Immortals of the Desolate Era world should be on the same tier as the strongest of the universe in the Swallowed Star World.
And Lu Qingshan's current strength was already considered the very top below the strongest of the universe — translated to those Three Realms, that would make him the most powerful existence below a World God.
Moreover, the unique divine power system within the Swallowed Star World displayed might far exceeding the blood-rebirth of the Desolate Era world, so Lu Qingshan was not in the least worried about running into trouble because of Beishan Baiwei's request for help.
【Beishan Baiwei: It's like this, Group Leader!】
【Beishan Baiwei: The Wujian Gate and our Nuwa faction have now begun a full-scale war, and right now the Battle of Fortune is underway, with the Final Decisive Battle still to come!】
【Beishan Baiwei: Although in the original plot, because of Ji Ning's existence, our Nuwa faction won the Final Decisive Battle, the price was far too heavy — countless named immortals and demons all perished.】
【Beishan Baiwei: And now, because of my appearance, Ji Ning's trajectory of fate has changed slightly, so I'm not sure whether he can turn the tide at the end this time, so I wanted to ask the Group Leader if you have any way to help out!】
Seeing these words from Beishan Baiwei, Lu Qingshan was not overly surprised.
In fact, Beishan Baiwei had already been cultivating hard enough.
Ever since joining the chat group, this Beishan Baiwei had completely changed the leisurely state of the original 'Desolate Era' plot, and had directly begun to cultivate diligently.
Originally Lu Qingshan had thought he could obtain more points from Beishan Baiwei, but he hadn't expected that the other party was wholeheartedly devoted to cultivation, and combined with the world Beishan Baiwei was in and his own status, he himself was not lacking in cultivation resources.
Precisely because of this, most of the points in Beishan Baiwei's hands had been spent activating the Enlightenment Boost function within the chat group, and the number actually exchanged into Lu Qingshan's hands through resource trades could be counted on one hand.
Of course, Lu Qingshan wasn't overly disappointed by this either.
After all, it was a good thing for chat group members to cultivate diligently; as for the chat group points issue, there were still other group friends around.
However, the cultivation time left for Beishan Baiwei in the Desolate Era world was really too short.
With the help of the Enlightenment Boost function within the chat group, Beishan Baiwei had used an extremely short time to cultivate along the path of gods and demons all the way to the Heavenly God realm.
The strength of the Heavenly God tier, if placed in ordinary times, was already considered the very top below True Gods and Dao Ancestors, fully on par with a great world lord like the Summer Emperor.
And in fact, that was indeed the case!
Before breaking through to the Heavenly God realm, in order to avoid drawing the attention of the Wujian Gate faction, Beishan Baiwei had been cultivating in a low-key manner under the guidance of various group friends.
It was only when breaking through to the Heavenly God realm that a heavenly tribulation descended, which finally drew the attention of many powerful beings within the Three Realms.
But by this time Beishan Baiwei already possessed Heavenly God-tier strength, so even if the Wujian Gate wanted to specifically target him, it would be quite troublesome.
However, the conflict between the Wujian Gate side and the Nuwa faction was now growing ever more intense, and Heavenly God-tier strength was already somewhat insufficient.
If it were an ordinary great world war, Heavenly God-tier strength would still be considered safe, but if it were a more brutal realm war, even Heavenly God True Immortals would fall in considerable numbers, let alone the final great decisive battle!
Moreover, the further one cultivates, the harder it becomes.
At the beginning, Beishan Baiwei's strength wasn't great, and the points needed each time to activate the Enlightenment Boost function weren't many, so naturally he could rapidly raise his strength with its help;
But he had now broken through to the Heavenly God tier, and not only had the points needed each time to activate the Enlightenment Boost function greatly increased, even cultivation itself was far harder than before, so wanting to raise his strength further naturally couldn't be done in a short period.
For example, in the Swallowed Star World, many Undying Divine Spirits had already cultivated for millions of years by the time they broke through.
Now the war within the Great Xia World had grown ever more intense, directly becoming a realm war of the Red Ming Realm Domain; with Beishan Baiwei's current strength, he could no longer influence the course of this war at all, and yet he was unwilling to let the war end in a pyrrhic victory like before, which was why he had opened his mouth to ask Lu Qingshan for help.
【Pang Bo: @Beishan Baiwei, Brother Beishan, didn't you previously say that you'd already broken through to the Heavenly God realm, and had even been accepted as a disciple by the Red Ming Dao Ancestor, and now had the strength to shelter your family and friends?】
【Beishan Baiwei: That was several years ago!】
【Beishan Baiwei: Now the war between our Great Xia World and the Wujian Gate has grown ever more intense, powerful beings from all sides have gathered, and even my master has personally come to take charge of the overall situation!】
【Beishan Baiwei: Judging by the experiences in the original work, that traitor Chang Qing will betray our Nuwa faction and ambush a group of senior brothers and sisters before long!】
【Beishan Baiwei: Although I knew this news long ago, I have no way to speak it out, and even if I did speak it out, no one would believe it — it would only add to the troubles!】
【Beishan Baiwei: Moreover, Senior Sister Snow Dance has always treated me quite well; if possible, I'm also unwilling to let her perish just like that!】
【Xiao Yan: @Beishan Baiwei, Brother Beishan, don't forget — in the original work, when it came to that Snow Dance Immortal, that Snow Dance Immortal was actually willing to defect along with Immortal Chang Qing to the Wujian Gate faction! Even if you find a way to save her, she might still be tempted by that Immortal Chang Qing and defect afterward!】
【Beishan Baiwei: That... that was just one of Senior Sister Snow Dance's thoughts; once Senior Sister Snow Dance sees clearly the true face of that traitor Chang Qing, she'll surely come to her senses!】
【Beishan Baiwei: It's just that my current strength is still somewhat weaker than that traitor Chang Qing, so it's very hard for me to stop him when he defects, so I was thinking to see if I could ask the Group Leader to step in and help out!】
【Xiao Yan: Why use a butcher's knife to kill a chicken? Wouldn't it be using a cannon to swat a mosquito if the Group Leader stepped in to deal with that Immortal Chang Qing?】
【Xiao Yan: Now I've already cultivated to the Great Perfection of the Earth Sovereign tier; I'd like to see whether an Earth Sovereign is more powerful, or the True Immortals of your world's side!】
In fact, judging by the points required for cross-world transmission within the chat group, True Immortals should be on the same tier as Heavenly Sovereigns.
However, the True Immortals of the Desolate Era world were merely nominal in realm, while their actual strength was far weaker than cultivators of the same tier — and this was precisely why the Heavenly God realm, which originally corresponded to Heavenly Immortals in the Desolate Era, could match True Immortals in actual strength.
It wasn't that Heavenly Gods were too strong; it was that the True Immortals of the Three Realms were too weak.
Just like in the original work, Heavenly God-tier Ji Ning in his normal state couldn't take down even a single Heavenly Immortal within the World Prison, and ultimately had to unleash the divine ability Star-Plucking Hand to successfully suppress the opponent.
Now that Xiao Yan had broken through to the Great Perfection of the Earth Sovereign tier, his naturally battle-hungry self had already defeated true Heavenly Sovereigns within his own Great Thousand World; encountering such an opportunity now, he naturally wanted to go and see for himself.
【Han Li: @Xiao Yan, I advise you not to go!】
【Xiao Yan: @Han Li, why?】
【Han Li: Of course it's because your current strength isn't strong enough! I don't think you're no match for that Immortal Chang Qing, but even if you could easily defeat Immortal Chang Qing, could you defeat those True God Dao Ancestors of the Wujian Gate?】
【Han Li: If you suddenly teleport across the boundary to that place, not only do you lack any cultivation experience within those Three Realms, but the methods you employ are also not the mainstream techniques of that world; you will certainly be identified as an outsider by the Nuwa camp and the Wujian Gate faction!】
