My construction materials are weird
#150 - What is civilization?
The main building of the Strange Gathering.
GOOGLE search TWKAN
A cold and eerie power permeated a world hidden deep within layers of space, where gloom and darkness reigned year-round.
A three-story building emitting a gray light stood in the center.
An invisible wave pulsed intermittently, gathering the aura of the dark space.
“Have you seen the news about Qingyun Mountain's Xuan Huang recently?”
Qiao Liangyu's somber words echoed through the quiet second floor of the Strange Gathering's main building.
“Your subordinate has seen it. Qingyun Mountain is holding a Hundred Arts Competition and has newly explored a small world. The cultivators from that small world are also paying homage to Xuan Huang at Qingyun Mountain.
There are also reports that Xuan Huang's Void Blade has advanced, and the Trial's Bone Pagoda and other items have also advanced. Xuan Huang has also assisted the Yellow River Branch, Daiyue Headquarters, and Nanshi Town Evil Department in dealing with the Strange Bus…”
Ms. Rose described the recent events at Qingyun Mountain in detail.
The president is almost obsessed, paying close attention to Qingyun Mountain.
The previous exposé didn't touch Xuan Huang's core, and everyone treated it as a joke.
Especially after the Town Evil Department's headquarters, Dragon Master and Bi Xia, said the president's claims were absurd.
Since then, the president has become very gloomy, showing signs of going mad.
He frequently publishes disparaging remarks about Xuan Huang online.
For example, he criticized Qingyun Mountain for introducing cultivators from the small world, accusing Xuan Huang of hypocrisy, claiming it was inviting wolves into the house, and arguing that they shouldn't treat the small world's creatures as equals, as they were just natives of a small world.
Because of this, representatives from both the Great Wind Small World and Qingzhou Small World have been attacking the Strange Gathering online for the past two days.
These two small worlds also have permanent personnel stationed on Blue Star.
They even seem to be expanding, with traces of their activities in some remote areas and newly formed territories.
It is speculated that they plan to establish a stronghold.
The integration of small worlds into Blue Star is irreversible; it's only a matter of time.
These two small worlds, as well as people from some other small worlds, are taking this action.
Blue Star will be the main world in the future, and they need to establish strongholds in advance, as this will be the main battlefield.
Small worlds are not limited to the Great Wind World and Qingzhou World; these two worlds just appeared the earliest and provide the most support to Blue Star, so they are the most famous.
There are also many other small worlds, but their strength and area are smaller compared to Great Wind and Qingzhou, and their strength is also very weak.
They are easily forgotten because they are too weak.
In total, there are about twenty small worlds that have been connected and discovered within the territory of Great Xia alone. How many there are outside Great Xia's territory is unknown.
The ones that have been discovered should be in the minority.
It's possible that there are more two-way rifts, but neither side has discovered them.
In short…
Qiao Liangyu's inappropriate remarks have provoked strong protests from many small world representatives stationed on Blue Star.
They say that small world people also have human rights, that they are all humans, and that we should not discriminate against them, as they are also members of the Myriad Worlds.
They even cite examples of marital relationships between Blue Star and small world people, even having babies, saying this is a great integration.
They strongly protested against President Qiao's improper remarks.
As a result, transactions at the Strange Gathering have fluctuated, and many small worlds have directly imposed economic sanctions, refusing to trade with the Strange Gathering.
Even if they trade, they don't go to the Strange Gathering.
Of course, this situation has two prerequisites.
The first is Qiao Liangyu's inappropriate remarks.
The second is Xuan Huang's direct elimination of the Nanshi Strange Gathering, which severely damaged the Strange Gathering's reputation.
Everyone has realized that the Strange Gathering is just so-so. Xuan Huang wiped out your Nanshi personnel, and you can't do anything about it.
Why should I trust you and trade with you here, only to be charged a handling fee?
I might as well trade somewhere else, like the Town Evil Department, which also provides this kind of service.
Of course, this kind of transaction is the kind that can be seen in the light. Some black market transactions are still done at the Strange Gathering.
“Has anyone come up with a way to deal with Xuan Huang after all this time?” Qiao Liangyu asked.
“This?”
Ms. Rose was speechless.
If they had a solution, that would be great.
Ever since Xuan Huang was exposed for suppressing the Strange Rat Brothers, beheading Christopher, and then wiping out the Nanshi Strange Gathering, the name of this killing god has spread.
Second-tier individuals can't even think about dealing with Xuan Huang, and how many third-tier Spirit Masters are there in total?
Why would they work for your Strange Gathering? You, Qiao Liangyu, are just so-so.
Moreover, Xuan Huang is favored by Dragon Master and Bi Xia, offending these two would be extremely foolish.
“President, no one dares to accept it. We can't contact third-tier Spirit Masters. Even if we could, they would directly say it's impossible when they hear it's about assassinating Xuan Huang.”
“Not even Second-tier God Blood?” Qiao Liangyu asked.
The mysterious place connected by the Strange Gathering, God Blood is also divided into levels. Currently, the highest level the Strange Gathering can offer is Second-tier God Blood.
Of course, there is also Third-tier God Blood, but Qiao Liangyu doesn't have enough for himself, so he naturally wouldn't release it externally.
The mysterious place is a huge ancient battlefield, where countless powerful beings have died.
The corpses on the battlefield are the source of God Blood. This place is very magical, and only blood can maintain its state without being contaminated.
Other bones, flesh, and fur are all sources of pollution.
Perhaps in the depths of the battlefield, there is a mysterious object suppressing the eerie transformation of the blood.
The other skin, fur, and bones are not within the suppression range.
Qiao Liangyu is always cautious when he enters that place.
He only dares to collect God Blood on the periphery. The aura inside is too strong, and even a third-tier like him doesn't dare to venture in.
In fact, he could collect more God Blood, but due to his caution, he mustered a lot of courage to go deep once and obtained a third-tier God Blood corpse.
After that, he was satisfied and didn't dare to continue exploring.
He only collects First-tier God Blood on the periphery.
This kind of First-tier God Blood is the most abundant; it's the cannon fodder of this ancient battlefield, so it's readily available.
Second-tier can occasionally be found; it's a scarce resource, but it's also sold externally.
Only the one remaining Third-tier God Blood corpse is Qiao Liangyu's personal item and is not for sale.
“Also no.”
Rose said: “Second-tier God Blood has an effect on third-tier Spirit Masters, but it's not significant. Even if there are third-tier Spirit Masters who want to take the mission, the quantity is too large, almost emptying our accumulation.”
“Who? Who wants to take it? Empty it then.” Qiao Liangyu discovered the blind spot.
It's good that someone wants to take it.
“Uh?” Rose said awkwardly: “President, no third-tier Spirit Master is taking it. Your subordinate is using a metaphor, a metaphor.”
“You—”
“Get out!”
Qiao Liangyu shouted angrily.
He was purely being delusional, not understanding Rose's metaphor. He misunderstood but blamed his subordinate.
“Yes!”
Rose breathed a sigh of relief. These ghostly days have been abnormal ever since Xuan Huang opposed the Gathering.
The entire Strange Gathering quieted down.
It's not that Qiao Liangyu doesn't know many of his decisions were wrong, but would he admit it?
No, he wouldn't.
It's not that I was wrong, it's that I was just careless. The mistake lies with others. How could I, a dignified third-tier Spirit Master, the esteemed president of the Eccentric Association, be wrong?
"Hmph, Xuan Huang, you must die, even if the cost is enormous."
"Beep beep—"
"Hello!"
After much deliberation, Qiao Liangyu made a significant decision.
If Xuan Huang doesn't die, I won't be able to hold my head high. The Eccentric Association's humiliation won't be washed away, and my future will be devoid of light.
Therefore, Xuan Huang must die.
"Old friend, I need you to do something. After it's done, the favor you owe me will be cleared."
"Is it about Xuan Huang?" A hoarse voice came directly from the other end of the phone.
"Yes." Qiao Liangyu didn't expect his old friend to guess it.
A long silence followed: "I said I owed you a favor, and I will naturally repay it. But you need to know the price of assassinating Xuan Huang."
Qiao Liangyu said, "I understand. That kid is being watched closely by Bi Xia and Long Shi. Killing him is equivalent to offending those two. But aren't you already wanted by those two? What does it matter to offend them one more time? Moreover…"
Qiao Liangyu offered the stakes without allowing for refusal, saying, "After it's done, ten bottles of second-tier Divine Blood, one bottle of third-tier Divine Blood, and I will personally send you out of Great Xia. Don't you want to go to Kangaroo Island? It's a place of madness and chaos. I think you'll like it."
The other end of the phone fell silent again.
What a huge stake. This guy is even willing to take out third-tier Divine Blood.
And he's sending me to Kangaroo Island, away from the pursuit of Bi Xia and Long Shi. This is what I want most.
Although being forced to leave home is miserable.
But I've had enough of this place. A dignified third-tier Spirit Master, being jointly hunted by two great experts, Long Shi and the number one Bi Xia.
The pressure is too great, so great that he doesn't dare to show his face.
It would be good to go to Kangaroo Island. After the resurgence of the strange, it has become completely chaotic. It was already a gathering place for thugs.
Without deterrence, it's naturally extremely crazy.
It's one of the few places on Blue Star where more people die at the hands of their own than at the hands of the strange.
"Okay, I agree."
The hoarse voice replied, and then said, "But I need time to prepare, at least six months of preparation. You know, I won't be coming back after I leave this time, and some things need to be arranged."
"No, six months is too long. At most three months. You also need to know the speed of progress of that despicable villain Xuan Huang. I'm afraid of unforeseen complications."
"Okay, three months it is." The hoarse voice thought for a moment and agreed. He also consoled, "Old friend, you're overthinking it. The gap between three months and the third tier is too great. But since you say so, I also agree. Three months, at the latest three months, I will go to Nan City."
"Good."
Qiao Liangyu hung up the phone, feeling a little uneasy.
He didn't know that once upon a time, there was a person named 'Jia Zhengyi,' also known as Gou Jianren, and he also had an old friend named Guiying Qilong.
"Three months, how strong can Xuan Huang become in three months? Before, everyone ignored him, thinking he was a first-tier Transcendent, but I know he's a second-tier Spirit Master. No one believes me. Is there such a fast second-tier Transcendent? The Spirit Master world is destined to be overturned by Xuan Huang. Hmph! Ignorant fellows are dragging me down."
Qiao Liangyu still firmly believed that Xuan Huang was a second-tier Spirit Master.
Otherwise, it doesn't make sense. How can there be such a fast second-tier Transcendent?
Impossible, absolutely impossible.
This question, not only him, many people have thought about it.
For example, Bi Xia and Long Shi from the Great Xia headquarters.
They know that Xuan Huang is not a Spirit Master, but if he's not a Spirit Master, why is he progressing so fast?
Bi Xia even specifically asked Long Yue, as Long Yue is stronger in looking at luck and deduction.
Long Yue's guess was that Xuan Huang had encountered a lucky chance and obtained a treasure. This treasure not only suppresses luck but can also become a powerful means.
Long Yue also gave Bi Xia an example: treasures from the small world, those treasures used by Transcendent cultivators to suppress their souls.
Hearing this, Bi Xia suddenly understood.
Believing that Xuan Huang had obtained a treasure used by Transcendent cultivators from a small world to suppress their souls.
And it's an even stronger treasure.
Only in this way can it be explained.
Then Bi Xia combined Long Yue's guess and gave his own speculation.
He said to Long Yue: It must be a dream-type treasure, otherwise, what about the dream world of Qingyun Mountain?
The ability is too strong.
After listening, Long Yue felt that it was right, that's it.
The more he thought about it, the more right it seemed, directly perfect and without omissions, that's how it is.
It can only be said that after Xuan Huang entered the second tier due to the three artifacts, although he himself is in the first tier, he can use various means, especially the will of the small world, the golden immortal soul, etc.
In addition to the Zhenling Stele giving the treasure a cheat, his strength has become a mystery.
Everyone thinks he's already in the second tier.
There is also an old friend who hasn't been seen for a long time, who has been very low-key recently.
So low-key that even the Demon Church has ignored him. He is Gou Jianren.
Hall Master Gou, since hearing that Xuan Huang镇 killed Christopher, single-handedly took down the Nan City Eccentric Association, and even had an online explosion with Qiao Liangyu, he has been very cautious and low-key.
So low-key that he wants Xuan Huang to forget him.
But he can't help but go online to see news about Xuan Huang and Qingyun Mountain.
Every time he sees news about Qingyun Mountain, he feels uncomfortable all over.
There are two second-tier Spirit Masters in the Nan City Evil Suppression Department.
Gao Xiaolan, whom he once looked down upon, is now in the second tier.
Many of his former subordinates are also at the peak of the first tier.
The rise of these people is all because of Xuan Huang.
Gou Jianren sometimes wonders if he hadn't fled, hadn't offended Xuan Huang, or even befriended Xuan Huang, would it be a completely different situation?
Fleeing doesn't seem good. The saying that people who leave their hometown are cheap may be true.
The place that once felt free doesn't seem as good as he thought.
Of course, as a Spirit Master, a master, he is still very happy.
If the privileges of the Great Xia Spirit Masters are three points, then the privileges of the Spirit Masters here are thirteen points.
It's too good to be a master here. No one cares about the weak.
Great Xia Spirit Masters need to explain when they kill ordinary people, they need to give reasons.
Here, it's completely unnecessary, and no one cares, unless a particularly large massacre is exposed, then they need to stand up and explain.
But even if the Spirit Master is wrong, it will be left unresolved, and slowly there will be no follow-up.
It's happy to be a master here, reaching his expectations.
But every time he sees the new atmosphere in Nan City, such as the recent crackdown, political chaos, re-establishment of order, etc., he feels uncomfortable.
Why always protect these weak people?
Why does it always feel like this is civilization?
Something must be wrong.
Gou Jianren kept thinking, was he wrong?
It seems not.
Then, since he is right, they are wrong.
Thinking of this, he sat up naked, pushed away the voluptuous bodies pressing on him, and took a shower.
It's rare for his real body to come out and have fun. For him, who is cautious, it's very precious.
Gou Jianren pulled up his pants, looked at the messy bed, three or four young, blonde, big-waved, tempting young bodies.
He spent another day of physical pleasure but unhappiness in his heart.
