After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 749 Assistance
Lin Zhao understood something very simple: Qu Shu had never made a mistake in his calculations. As for whether he was part of Qu Shu's scheme, Lin Zhao basically didn't think about that question.

Qu Shu's upbringing instilled in him this survival instinct. Lin Zhao dislikes denying anyone's survival instinct, even if that person isn't Qu Shu but someone he has a grudge against. Lin Zhao wouldn't deny the other person's choice.

Of course, the premise for her not to interfere is that this matter does not cross her bottom line.

Now that Qu Shu intends to use her own father as an experimental subject, Lin Zhao finds it unacceptable. This has crossed his bottom line, so Lin Zhao decides to bring Qu Shu back and keeps a close watch on her.

Qu Shu may not have noticed Lin Zhao's disapproval of the matter, or perhaps she was too confident in her methods. After Lin Zhao agreed to bring her father back, she quickly changed the subject and asked Lin Zhao, "I heard that the clan plans to let you participate in this Northern Region Grand Competition in the name of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan's young master. What do you think?"

Lin Zhao lazily sank into the pillow: "What else can I think? I can't refuse something I've already agreed to, can I?"

Qu Shu said calmly, "If you want to refuse, I have a way."

Lin Zhao quickly sat up straight. She knew all too well that Qu Shu's words were not spoken carelessly; Qu Shu must have had his reasons for saying them. So Lin Zhao said, "That's not necessary. After all, I promised, and it wouldn't be good to go back on my word."

Qu Shu remained noncommittal.

Even without going back on his word, there were ways to refuse, but after observing Lin Zhao for a while and confirming that the other party did not have any resistance to doing this, he did not continue.

"In this competition, I will do my best to assist you. In addition to you and me, the Heavenly Phoenix Clan will send three people, and each faction will send five disciples to participate in the competition. In previous years, the competition was divided into three categories: individual combat, two-person combat, and team combat. Personnel can participate in the same competition repeatedly. In the individual combat, you will undoubtedly be the one to go on stage. In the two-person combat, I may not be able to participate."

Before Lin Zhao could look at him with a puzzled expression, Qu Shu explained, "My immortal energy is temporarily unable to show any offensive power; it can only play a supporting role and cannot help you much."

Lin Zhao frowned: "What do you mean by 'not aggressive'?"

Qu Shu glanced at her: "Give me your hand."

Lin Zhao suspiciously reached out her hand towards Qu Shu, and Qu Shu released a wisp of immortal energy towards Lin Zhao.

After the immortal energy entered Lin Zhao's body, Lin Zhao's spirits instantly lifted. She discovered that the immortal energy had actually merged with her own immortal energy and even improved the quality of her own immortal energy.
"This……"

Qu Shu sighed, "That's how it is. I've done too many experiments on myself. In pursuit of the ultimate bloodline, I consulted ancient books and used some of the methods that the Ancestral Phoenix used to enhance itself, but I ignored the fact that I always have a portion of the Immortal Beast bloodline in me, and that's how I ended up like this."

Lin Zhao: "..." She knew that sometimes being too harsh on yourself wasn't a good thing.

"If that's the reason, you don't need to worry. You can fight alongside me."

Qu Shu said, “I know you can win the championship in the Northern Region’s two-person battle by yourself, but... what I want is to fight my way out of the Northern Region and into the Central Region before I join the battle. I want the Heavenly Phoenix Clan to win the Central Region’s first place in the True Spirit Realm’s Young Generation Competition, so that I can prepare to become the Lord of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan.”

Lin Zhao was taken aback. She hadn't expected Qu Shu to have thought of this. She really was thinking three steps ahead for every one step she took.

"Even if I were the Celestial King, I might not be able to lead the Celestial Phoenix Clan to the top spot."

Lin Zhao hadn't forgotten what monster-level beings existed in the Central Domain. Not to mention that the Seven Star Palace in the Central Domain had a Celestial King-level expert among its younger generation, the Ancient Dragon Clan's You Chen was probably also a Celestial King in his true form. You Shen was hard to say, but You Quan, even if he hadn't reached the Celestial King level, was close.

It's uncertain whether he can even win first place in the individual competition for the younger generation in the central region, let alone lead the remaining members of the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, whose strength is not outstanding, to win first place in the entire force.

"The Northern Region Grand Competition will last for a month. After the Northern Region Grand Competition, there will be a half-month rest period, during which the top ten from each region will prepare to participate in the final True Spirit Realm Grand Competition. This preparation time will also be ten days. So, a month plus more than twenty days is enough for me to recover to an aggressive state."

Lin Zhao said, "This can't solve all the problems. Among the top ten forces in the central region, there are probably at least three with Immortal King level experts."

As soon as Lin Zhao finished speaking, Qu Shu said, "Seven forces have experts at the Immortal King level. Although the cultivation world has been declining year by year, it is precisely because of this that the True Spirit Realm has paid more and more attention to the cultivation of the younger generation. So even if the younger generation of the True Spirit Realm is not as good as the ancient era, they are not much worse. However, the top combat power of the cultivation world is not as good as that of the ancient era."

Hearing this, Lin Zhao became even more desperate: "You know there are seven forces with Immortal Kings, and you still want to get first place?"

Qu Shu said, “Yes, I can’t, but you can, Lin Zhao. These past fifty-odd days have not only enhanced my strength, but you can also rapidly improve. Before, you were only invincible among your peers in the lower realm, but now you should also be invincible among your peers in the upper realm.”

For some reason, Lin Zhao immediately understood Qu Shu's meaning: "You mean, the Ancestral Phoenix's tomb?"

Qu Shu nodded: "And there are the remaining three techniques of your Phoenix Vein Technique."

In that instant, Lin Zhao heard her own heart pounding rapidly.

At that moment, she understood why Qu Shu was so certain.

If her Phoenix Vein Nine Techniques were complete, coupled with the Dragon Evolution Technique, Lin Zhao believed that she could indeed be invincible within the same realm, and it was even possible for her to challenge those of higher realms.

"Now, are you willing to take a gamble with me?" Qu Shu asked.

Lin Zhao said, "Before we gamble, we can't just say that the two of us are stronger and can't carry the load alone. Let's also help our comrades who fought alongside us."

Qu Shu remained silent for a moment, then curled her lips into a mocking smile: "It's up to you."

He had an extraordinary fervor for the Heavenly Phoenix Clan, but a distorted indifference and rejection towards its members.

These two contradictory feelings arose in Qu Shu, and Lin Zhao silently moved a little further away from him.

"The Qiankun Mirror and the furnace can help them enhance their foundation."

Lin Zhao asked, "How many Heavenly Phoenixes and Heavenly Dragons should we choose?"

Qu Shu looked at her with a strange expression: "Why choose the Heavenly Phoenix? Of course, we should choose the three strongest Heavenly Phoenixes."
