Chapter 151 Interstellar Caravans and Cultivation Secrets
Ninth Brother, is there still no movement from Xiao Lei?
Not yet, but I investigated it a few years ago, so it seems like it should be soon.
Should we wait for Xiao Lei here, or...?
"Hey Xiao Huo, what's Old Cui and Ninth Brother doing? Ninth Brother will decide what to do next." After saying this, Xiao Mu immediately looked at Zhu Chongjiu with a fawning expression and continued, "Isn't it Ninth Brother?"
After seeing this, Xiao Rou pulled Xiao Huo aside and said to him, "Let's not play with sycophants anymore."
Hey? Little Rou, who are you calling a bootlicker?
Anyone who tries to talk to me will be called a liar, so what?
Xiaorou, let me tell you, don't think that just because you're a little bit better than me, you can insult my character.
Personality? You still have that thing?
Xiao Rou, you...! Brother Jin, we need help from the community! Someone please make way! My brother is being bullied.
Xiao Mu, it's not that Brother Jin doesn't want to help you, but Brother Jin doesn't bully the old, weak, women, or children in the underworld.
Zhu Chongjiu saw the children playing around again and shook his head, saying, "Alright, alright, how old are you? You still can't behave properly."
The question Xiao Huo just asked me, after all these years of reflection, I feel it's time for us to integrate into the masses. We've been drifting in space for so long already.
Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's decision, Xiao Jin was the first to speak. "Great! I'm really tired of staying here. Ninth Brother, when are we going to that Wind Immortal King's world?"
No rush. A complete world with a Celestial King in charge is not something a few strangers like us can just walk into.
If an accident occurs, a battle and escape will be inevitable.
Therefore, we need to prepare a comprehensive plan.
When Zhu Chongjiu got to this point, Xiao Tu stepped forward and said, "Brother Jiu, you won't have to fight alone anymore if there's danger in the future. With the improvement in our strength this time, we brothers can finally help you."
Hearing Xiao Tu's words, all the little ones nodded in agreement, especially Xiao Jin, who thumped his chest loudly.
Just then, Xiaorou spoke up, "That's enough, everyone. Just a token gesture is fine."
Whether or not I can help Brother Jiu depends on my own abilities.
If you're not strong enough, would Ninth Brother be willing to let you take risks?
"When we ask you to take action, it's usually when there's absolutely no danger to your lives."
Xiao Rou paused for a moment after saying this, then looked at Zhu Chongjiu and continued, "So, Ninth Brother, I think that sometimes, blindly pursuing safety is also a kind of danger."
Also, Ninth Brother, we're completely unfamiliar with this place, how can we find a foolproof plan to enter this world?
Looking at the intelligent and quick-witted Xiao Rou, Zhu Chongjiu knew that Xiao Rou's true meaning was the sentence that had been inserted into the group of words earlier: "Utmost safety can also be a kind of danger!"
After saying that, they immediately tried to cover it up by mentioning the problems they were about to face. However, given their intelligence, even if there were things they hadn't considered yet, they would figure them out later.
At this moment, I sighed to myself, "If she grows up, who will be able to control her?"
Will I be a bachelor for the rest of my life?
"Huh? Although the little ones all appear as boys, elemental spirits don't seem to have genders, right?"
Zhu Chongjiu's thoughts were awakened by Xiao Huo's cry of "Ninth Brother".
Shh! Little Fire, don't disturb Ninth Brother. Can't you see he's trying to figure something out?
Seeing that Xiao Mu had gotten him out of the predicament, he awkwardly scratched his head and said, "I've thought of a solution, but I don't know if it will work yet?"
Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's words, the children all asked in unison, "What's your plan, Ninth Brother? What do you mean by 'not knowing if it will work yet'?"
Zhu Chongjiu waved his hand to stop the little ones from asking questions, and directly released the rat Guangwei, which had not been seen for a hundred years, from his storage ring.
The moment Haozi Guangwei came out, he looked at Zhu Chongjiu and bowed respectfully, asking, "What are your orders, Ninth Brother?"
The world ahead is the one you mentioned back then, controlled by the Wind Immortal King. Now, is there any way for us to enter without anyone noticing?
Upon hearing Zhu Chongjiu's question, Haozi Guangwei pondered for a moment before replying, "Ninth Brother, if you reach the Heavenly King level, there are secret techniques that can deceive the Heavenly Dao and allow the Wind Immortal King to enter his world without knowing anything, since they are beings of the same level."
"If one hasn't reached the Heavenly King level, there's not much I can do to deceive the Heavenly Dao of this world, or the Wind Immortal King's detection."
Upon hearing Haozi Guangwei's reply, Xiao Hei glared at Zhu Chongjiu and said angrily, "He's completely useless. You might as well just execute him."
After Xiao Hei finished speaking, Zhu Chongjiu did not immediately reject his suggestion, so Haozi Guangwei hurriedly added, "However, I have another rather risky suggestion, but I don't know if it's feasible?"
Oh? What suggestion? Tell me!
When Haozi Guangwei saw Zhu Chongjiu asking him again, he breathed a sigh of relief and replied, "A mature world, especially one with organized leadership, will have a large number of interstellar caravans coming and going all year round. If we can infiltrate an interstellar caravan, we can easily enter this world."
Just when everyone thought the idea was pretty good, Xiao Jin reached out and touched his beardless chin, asking in confusion, "Mouse, isn't this idea of yours risky?"
Is there anything important that I haven't mentioned?
Also, since you said that there are interstellar caravans coming and going in this world all year round, what kind of organization is this interstellar caravan?
We've been stuck on the edge of this world for over a hundred years, why haven't we seen a single person?
Upon hearing Xiao Jin's question, everyone instantly realized what was happening.
Especially Xiao Hei, who had just shown joy, suddenly remembered Zhu Chongjiu's evaluation of Xiao Jin after hearing Xiao Jin's three questions, and thought to himself, "It seems that I can't just grow tall and not smart!"
Upon hearing Xiao Jin's question, Hao Zi Guang Wei immediately bowed and said, "As expected of the future God of Gold, you are not only incredibly brave but also exceptionally intelligent!"
Xiao Jin was quite pleased with this flattery and waved his hand repeatedly, replying, "Keep it down, keep it down...!"
After everyone fell silent, Haozi Guangwei didn't waste any time and continued, "First of all, I must say that Ninth Brother's choice of where to stay was quite ingenious."
In a world where kings frequently come and go, the world's master would surely plan specific entrances and exits, preventing them from freely entering from any direction.
The former is easier to manage, while the latter may lead to some uncontrollable issues.
The place that Ninth Brother chose to stay at was precisely the opposite side of the world's entrance and exit. Even if there were people and caravans coming from our direction, they would have already detoured to the front in the endless void.
That's why I said Ninth Brother would find a good place.
Secondly, let's talk about this interstellar caravan.
Once you hear the word "caravan," you probably already know what it means.
There are inter-world trading companies within the world. Even though the universe is not that vast, wherever there are people, there will be a need for communication and supplies, which is the origin of interstellar caravans.
Interstellar caravans typically carry both merchants and goods, making them quite diverse and suitable for concealing their activities.
Then there's the danger I mentioned.
Before I begin, please forgive my rudeness!
After saying this, Haozi Guangwei cupped his hands to Zhu Chongjiu and continued, "The current status of the human race in the Immortal Realm, and even in the entire Primordial Universe, is such that those who are at best are servants, and those who are at worst are slaves."
Therefore, given Ninth Brother's current situation, it is impossible for him to lead the gentlemen to experience the pleasures of life and infiltrate the interstellar caravan.
After all, the immortals are quite strict in their scrutiny of the human race.
Pshaw, all that talk was for nothing.
As soon as Haozi Guangwei finished speaking, Xiaotu started to complain.
Zhu Chongjiu also gave Haozi Guangwei a sharp look and said, "Say what you have to say at once, don't keep me in suspense."
It's Ninth Brother, I'll continue now!
Then, Haozi Guangwei continued, "I have a secret technique here, just like when Ninth Brother first met me, that can conceal one's aura so that outsiders cannot detect the presence of Ninth Brother and the others."
However, this secret technique can only be concealed from those one level higher than oneself; if they are higher, then there is nowhere to hide it.
Oh?
You mean, the secret method of wrapping yourself in bright light, like you did back then?
Yes, Ninth Brother. However, when Ninth Brother and the others use this technique, they don't need to wrap themselves up tightly in bright light like the younger ones.
This practice is limited to use by our Guangwei and is also our Guangwei's symbol.
The main reason is to conceal the true appearance of our Light Guardians. Ninth Brother, you should have guessed by now that you've seen us. We Light Guardians are all animals that have become spirits and transformed into our true forms.
Revealing one's true form would slightly damage the prestige of the Immortal Lord's Palace.
After Haozi Guangwei's explanation, everyone finally understood his plan.
After hearing this, Zhu Chongjiu didn't waste any more words. He directly instructed Haozi Guangwei to tell everyone about his secret technique and began to practice it.
When everyone heard about this secret technique, Zhu Chongjiu sensed its power. Although it could only be used by those who were one realm higher than him without them noticing, this secret technique was not limited to any particular race.
In other words, as long as there is a living being, one can cultivate, unlike most secret techniques, some of which can only be cultivated by immortals, and others can only be used by humans.
Especially for special beings like elemental spirits, their entire lives can only rely on sensing their own elemental laws and devouring their own kind to improve their strength. The spells and incantations they can cultivate are extremely limited.
