Chapter 1196: Chapter 1062: Oversight

Qu Jianlei recalled the pressure that the Five Elements Battle Array brought him, which came from some descendant of the Dogan Supreme.

However, he did not rate that array highly—once the five elements unite, why would the power be so minimal?

He believed that the array he calculated would definitely be much stronger—so much data also confirmed this point.

Then, just as he was about to gather people to experiment, he suddenly realized he had overlooked a major issue!

He actually couldn’t gather the ”Gold, Wood, Water, Fire, Earth” of the Five Elements Array!

The team did have five Supremes, but they were missing Fire Attribute and Wood Attribute!

Even though he was Attributeless and could substitute one, he still couldn’t complete the Five Elements!

As for those A-level and B-level members? None had all five major attributes, they were all mutated!

Among them, only Zi Jiu Immortal had Sand Attribute, which could barely be considered Gold Attribute.

Like Light, Darkness, Wind, Electromagnetic... Qu Jianlei was a bit amused: How did he gather such a group?

Among other members not around, he could find Wood Attribute—both Youyou and Xiao Qin had it.

However, among all the team members, he couldn’t find a single Fire Attribute, let alone a Supreme, nor in A-level or B-level!

He felt like he had a bucket of cold water poured on him—bone-chillingly cold!

At this moment, Mu Yu had just finished her cultivation and was using micro operations to level the land.

Supremes doing manual labor... it’s an unavoidable matter since the ”Mountain-Breaking Fist” offered by the leader is too popular.

Every day she has to erect stone pillars to facilitate everyone’s cultivation, and after it’s over, she has to level them.

But that’s how a team should be, you can’t just take without giving.

She saw the leader come out excitedly, only to look bitter instantly, and couldn’t help but ask aloud.

”What happened... Is there something troubling?”

As soon as the words landed, three more strands of spiritual power descended—there’s no helping it, that’s the downside of having too many Supremes.

Qu Jianlei shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying, ”I’ve calculated the Five Elements Battle Array... it’s a phased achievement!”

Mu Yu interacted a lot with the leader, and understood these words.

From ”phased achievement” to ”ultimate version” and the elusive ”perfect version”... these terminologies are progressive.

Plus, the Five Elements Battle Array... she’s witnessed it before, ”That’s a good thing, why are you so gloomy?”

”Ha!~” The Paranoid’s dry laughter sounded, clearly with a bit of schadenfreude, ”There’s definitely a need to worry, we’re missing fire and wood!”

Qu Jianlei spoke grimly, ”So you thought of it long before, just waiting to see me become a joke?”

The Paranoid wasn’t doing it on purpose, he just had a social death event while practicing Instant Flash, so he was happy to see others make a fool of themselves too.

Especially feeling that the seemingly omnipotent leader encountered such a situation, it really was rare.

But at this time, he didn’t dare indulge in schadenfreude and instead answered seriously.

”I did think of it, but this Five Elements Battle Array still needs to be done... it could enhance our team’s foundation.”

”As for the current lack of wood and fire attributes, that doesn’t matter, sooner or later we’ll supplement them.”

”I don’t have your confidence,” Granny Jia’s voice chimed in, ”Our team... it’s hard to bring new people in.”

It really is hard, gaining unanimous approval is not an easy task.

This is a group with sky-high standards for themselves, ordinary Supremes are just not good enough.

Not to mention, they are still a bunch of desperados. While Supremes among desperados aren’t rare, realistically, they aren’t plentiful.

—After cultivating laboriously and climbing to the peak of life, why would one overextend themselves and venture into danger?

Moreover, Supremes have many privileges, as long as they reasonably use the rules, it’s basically impossible to be offended.

Furthermore, even though they are all desperados, the fact is, they all have a moral baseline.

This is the specialty of Qu Jianlei’s team, though dwelling in darkness, they are still willing to preserve a pure land.

Listening to Granny Jia’s words, the Paranoid also thought of these, and thus smacked his lips.

”This is really... difficult, no way to further refine it.”

He also understood what the leader meant by ”phased achievement,” it was just the initial version.

For someone with obsessive tendencies, the initial version is absolutely dissatisfying.

Right then, Qinghu suddenly spoke up, ”Isn’t Nutrient Injection a Fire Attribute?”

With a Fire Attribute, if the leader simulates a Wood Attribute, then it would complete the set.

However, Mu Yu pointed out an issue, ”He’s just A-level, let’s not talk about credibility, his cultivation level is a bit low.”

The majestic Five Elements Battle Array, with four Supremes and an A-level... is this appropriate?

”Nutrient Injection...” Qu Jianlei murmured softly, in his perception, this person’s credibility was still quite high.

Otherwise, back then he wouldn’t have taught him Instant Flash.

Moreover, the person also expressed willingness to help apply for large computation units—even Little Lake was about to turn into a spindle!

However, it wasn’t that Qu Jianlei was stingy, the Five Elements Battle Array calculated by him was much stronger than those he’d encountered!

Once such a skill battle technique spreads... he indicated that he truly felt quite troubled.

But ultimately, he wasn’t someone who would waver. He still made a decision swiftly.

”I’m willing to trust him, just teach him the fire attribute skill battle technique... hmm, too bad cultivation level is a hard barrier.”

Actually, he knew in his heart that Nutrient Injection was far more intelligent than everyone imagined and had a wide range of experiences.

Even if he only taught the fire attribute combat technique, it would probably be absorbed by the other party.

”Is the cultivation level not enough?” Qinghu mused aloud.

”I heard he has a secret technique for temporarily enhancing cultivation level... but I wonder if it causes significant harm.”

Ever since Nutrient Injection revealed the forces behind him, she began to view him in a different light.

The reason was clear; she had seen the same Supreme who’s above all, how couldn’t there be some camaraderie?

When she said this, everyone went silent—wasn’t this clearly forming alliances?

However, everyone’s impression of Nutrient Injection was indeed not bad.

Although he was only A-level, he was adept and measured in his actions, making him a good partner.

He even helped everyone find a path to stay peacefully on Qingyuan Star.

In such circumstances, no one could voice opposition; the Supreme could act arbitrarily, but... there should be some dignity, right?

So everyone was quietly awaiting the leader’s decision.

Qu Jianlei pondered and said, ”Then let’s call him over and ask.”

Nutrient Injection truly understood propriety; when Qu Jianlei’s group settled into the manor, he chose a villa in the mountains.

This place used to be where the Gustine Clan rested during hunts—indeed, there was still undeveloped primordial forest in the territory.

In the forest, there were wild beasts, mutant beasts, and even a certain chance to find crystals.

The Gustine Clan paid careful attention to resource sustainability, establishing a quarantine zone and hunting as needed.

This villa was where the clan members rested, the conditions weren’t great but weren’t bad either.

In short, this person truly knew when to advance and retreat, showing perfect restraint.

Upon receiving Zi Jiu Immortal’s notice, he promptly arrived at the main manor.

Having heard that Qu Jianlei had deduced the Five Elements Battle Array, he showed no surprise.

Because back when Qu Jianlei bought the booklet at an independent stall, he was present.

Now two years have passed, and someone deduced the Five Elements Battle Array... alright, the speed was rather astonishing, yet not entirely unexpected.

Because in the heritage of some major forces, there’s also research on the Five Elements Array.

He unapologetically stated, ”Sir, I do indeed have a secret technique for temporarily enhancing cultivation level.”

”Oh my...” Qu Jianlei was genuinely surprised, aware of the many secret techniques of the Awakened, yet this was quite astonishing.

However, he had another question, ”Would such overextension of blood energy negatively impact your foundation?”

Nutrient Injection pondered briefly before responding, ”It does cause minor harm, but not severe, once every ten days is fine.”

”However, after using the secret technique, one must absorb a large amount of blood energy replenishing substances... these costs, I’ll handle myself.”

To him, witnessing the powerful Five Elements Battle Array was worth some cost.

Qu Jianlei thought it over and eventually shook his head, ”Forget it, we’ll all suppress our cultivation level to A-level.”

At this moment, Paranoid suddenly spoke, ”Is your cultivation-enhancing secret technique... tradable?”

Honestly, not just him, but Qu Jianlei was tempted too.

Being able to unleash power at critical moments without severe side effects was definitely a combat asset.

Nutrient Injection was stunned upon hearing this, then chuckled bitterly, ”Well... the Supreme gave me an imprint.”

”Oh my,” Qu Jianlei twitched his lips — since that’s the case, it’s certainly not learnable.

Although he didn’t understand the principle, it basically made sense.

A gift from the Supreme allowing an A-level to temporarily elevate to supreme combat power sounded plausible.

Of course, he was curious about such means, but with so much yet to be digested by himself.

Moreover, even if he mastered it, elevating a B-level temporarily to A-level... didn’t seem worthwhile.

Qu Jianlei decided everyone would control their cultivation, making a transparent choice, leaving others no room to argue.

”Alright then,” Nutrient Injection didn’t refuse, instead he said, ”If it’s a battle array of five Supremes, we’d surely need to change location.”

The Gustine Clan territory wasn’t small, yet it was just fifteen thousand square kilometers.

On such small land, a supreme’s aura can easily leak out, a battle array of five Supremes... just imagining it is scary!

A battle array made of five A-levels should be able to overwhelm and possibly defeat a Supreme, something worth testing within the territory.

However, since an A-level can form a battle array, Zi Jiu Immortal volunteered to participate.

She possessed a sand attribute, suitable for replacing Paranoid’s gold attribute and Qinghu’s sand attribute.

These two had no choice but to concede to the younger member, ”That’s fine then, we’ll just watch... remember to communicate thoroughly.”

Zi Jiu Immortal was not only Granny Jia’s great-granddaughter but also an exceptionally rare genius, unlikely to let anyone down.
