It has a very special suppression power against independent worlds. Whoever encounters the Realm Stele will have no room for resistance in their independent world. Of course, for the top-level Three Emperors and Five Emperors of the Upper Three Realms, their combat power remains unpredictable even if their independent world is suppressed. The greatest value of the Realm Stele lies in its ability to easily break the invincible capital held by those of Emperor-level and above who have independent worlds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to Nalan Que’s explanation, Li Jing was excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just now, Nalan Que mentioned that the Realm Stele could suppress a realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing was wondering about the limit of this thing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It can’t be that any independent world that it encounters, it can suppress,

Emperors and Five Emperors of the Upper Three Realms who have evolved their independent world to resemble a Big World, encountering the Realm Stele will still be instantly suppressed and unable to use the independent world.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This thing...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Isn’t it somewhat overpowered?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Caressing the Realm Stele, Li Jing almost drooled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What a good treasure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Praising it in his heart, Li Jing’s eyes sparkled with golden light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He couldn’t possibly fully

lie.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ancient Times really existed, and it wasn’t just a figment of the ancients’ imagination!?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It makes sense when you think about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How many years of recorded history does Blue Star have?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Immortal Realm, any older being would probably outlast the known human history of Blue Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The key point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Big World contains more than just the Blue Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Blue Star has experienced more than one clear destruction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the unknown era that came before, or in the parts of the Big World where life forms or even humans might exist, there is likely to be unknown history.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Zhenshi Stele...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is a relic from the ancient times...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it’s also a Heavenly Treasure!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing was also very familiar with the word \"Heavenly Treasure.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This term exists on Blue Star too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heavenly Treasure generally refers to strange treasures that are naturally formed and cannot be artificially refined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The characteristic of this type of treasure is that it doesn’t require refining and recognition by the master to display a variety of unexpected effects when held.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The shortcomings are equally obvious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because it can’t be refined to establish a connection, it can be easily snatched away...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On Blue Star, these things are very rare.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the Immortal Realm, there are a bit more...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the function of a Heavenly Treasure may not necessarily be that great.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This Zhenshi Stele in front of him...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Definitely belongs to the top tiers!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is probably a piece of equipment of a top-level big shot in ancient times...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>How did such a thing end up here?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Could it be...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Is it this object that some people in the Upper Three Realms want to find in the Immortal Realm?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Li Jing frowned slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After thinking about it, it didn’t seem likely.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhenshi Stele is indeed very powerful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But after all, it serves the function of \"single target enemy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It’s very valuable, but it’s not a necessity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially considering those that caused the invasion of Void and almost destroyed the Ancient Fairyland, and even posed a threat to the Big World.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such beings, if they obtained the Zhenshi Stele, it wouldn’t necessarily be that useful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With their power...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The independent worlds of those weaker than them can probably be easily breached.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Those of the same level...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Probably just as Nalan Que said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without an independent world, their power remains formidable.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhenshi Stele can be an advantage, but for them, it doesn’t hold much significance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Turning back to the matter at hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Itself is something that fell from the Upper Three Realms...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If it fell, those above probably don’t even know about it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beings of the Upper Three Realms, who dared to destroy the Ancient Fairyland and even threaten the Big World, slyly looking for something in the Immortal Realm, are probably looking for something else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Something more powerful than the Zhenshi Stele...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Making a silent conjecture, Li Jing held the Zhenshi Stele with one hand and thought to log in internally.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A prompt popped up in front of his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Login successful, obtained equipment: Zhenshi Stele.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And then...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhenshi Stele in someone’s hand disappeared all of a sudden.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon seeing this, Nalan Que almost burst into tears.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>My boundary stele!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like that, it’s gone...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the other hand, Li Jing was brimming with excitement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The equipment section of his system has been empty for a very long time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But that’s not the major point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The key is...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the Zhenshi Stele was registered, Li Jing could easily feel it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Boundary stele in his hand, no one else could snatch it from him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his equipment section, it was bound to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unless he himself gave away the Zhenshi Stele...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This, indeed, is delightful!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a light lift of his hand, the Zhenshi Stele appeared in Li Jing’s palm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It truly was a heavenly treasure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite not cultivating it nor does it possess any intelligence like a Spirit Weapon, the Zhenshi Stele could be controlled completely at will as his Lifebound Magic Instrument.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a wave of his hand, he put away the item, Li Jing altered his appearance back to his true form and looked at Nalan Que.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You, along with the five people who came with you, come with me. I have a few questions for you all.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Having said that, he turned around and walked away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nalan Que didn’t know that this male in front of him was Li Jing’s true form, seeing him turn into a male he assumed he didn’t want to attract too much attention.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing his command, Nalan Que, despite feeling displeased, had to turn back obediently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nalan Que was a sensible man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew all too well,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although Li Jing seemed kind, he was actually ruthless and resolute.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, he wouldn’t say that his life was given by someone else.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if it wasn’t,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If that person decided to kill him,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He would chill to his death on the spot, without any chance to resist.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the end,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The fact that he wasn’t killed by Li Jing that day was because he might be useful in the future...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise how could he have been so triumphant just now?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Li Jing return to his masculine form and walk ahead, the spellbound Nalan’s clan members and those five who came with Nalan Que suddenly regained their senses.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking up, they found out that the boundary stele was nowhere to be found, everyone was staring at each other in blank dismay.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Due to being spellbound, they didn’t know who finally got the boundary stele.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But it seemed quite obvious...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The boundary stele was taken by Li Jing...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing Nalan Que walking back alone, looking disoriented, the five people accompanying him looked at each other and voluntarily went to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Heavenly Emperor, that guy...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One of the women among them started,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before she could finish speaking, Nalan Que lifted his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don’t ask, knowing too much won’t end well for you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, he looked at each of the five and said in a low voice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You guys come with me, that man has some questions for us. Do not hide anything if you know when the time comes, otherwise the blame cannot be placed on others if you lose your lives.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The five of them nodded silently upon hearing his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A while ago, they were spellbound by Li Jing, so they knew how terrifying he could be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Let alone their current condition, even in their prime, they would have to take a detour upon encountering this man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Right now, the way Nalan Que was talking about Li Jing he seemed like a murderous demon, so they listened to him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After directing the five people, Nalan Que then looked at the clansmen of Nalan’s line who were about to cheer for him a moment ago when he approached the boundary stele alone and started talking in silence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The boundary stele already has a master, it is not your concern anymore. This place is a site of disputes, if you don’t want to die, leave immediately. Once something starts, even I will be unable to protect myself.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, he turned around and went towards the direction where Li Jing had gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The five people who accompanied him quietly followed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the people of Nalan’s clan were stunned for a moment, but then they gradually began to leave.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nalan Que’s words were clear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They did not want to die.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they wanted to live, they had to leave right away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the rest of this incident...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was clear that they were not qualified to participate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once the Zhenshi Stele had been retrieved, the dark red colour of the ground became shallower, the flying restrictions and the pressure in this area disappeared.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not far from where Zhenshi Stele used to be, on top of a cliff, Li Jing took out a lounge chair and also pulled out a round conference table along with six office chairs with wheels.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the go...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The ritual cannot be neglected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He, Li Jing, was not an unreasonable person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In some ways, he was asking for a favour from others on this trip.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If not necessary, he would not want to act too excessively.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If you wanted to question and speak, at least provide a place to sit.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A roundtable meeting was perfect, wasn’t it?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing such a setup, Nalan Que and others came over with faces full of uncertainty, but couldn’t help expressing their curiosity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such fine craftsmanship of the round table, office chairs and the lounge chair they were seeing was completely beyond their comprehension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These things originate from Blue Star.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If they wanted to get by in the Eastern Immortal Domain, they would probably have heard of some of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in Zhong Shen Zhou...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was no information at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing everyone approach, Li Jing started with a smile.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sit.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked at the only woman in the group and said,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Miss, would you make some tea for us?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While speaking, he tossed over a plastic bag containing Life Tree Leaves.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman instinctively caught the plastic bag, and almost popped her eyes out when she looked down.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without a doubt,\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She was a connoisseur.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Apart from Nalan Que, who had previously witnessed a certain person and Xiang Yunxian drinking tea, everyone else looked surprised.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life Tree Leaves!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such a large bag!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Used for making tea...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Checked gaze.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a bigshot beyond their comprehension.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Se...Senior, this tea...do we really have to brew it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The woman inquired in astonishment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Li Jing could speak, Nalan Que interjected.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If Master Jiu tells you to brew it, then brew it, why so much nonsense?
