I created Qin Tianjian in modern times

Not far away, Chen Tian and the other two were sitting there, looking at this side with envy in their eyes.

"If only I had come earlier, maybe I could sit with them now and prepare to enter the realm of cultivation..." Chen Tian couldn't help but sigh.

After hearing this, Ah Jing asked in surprise, "Weren't you a Taoist priest from Wudang Mountain before you came here? You should have practiced for a long time, so why haven't you reached the rank yet?"

Chen Tian shook his head helplessly: "Now is the Dharma Ending Age, the opportunities for cultivation are getting fewer and fewer, and the Dharma has been lost in history. Although Wudang Mountain is a famous and upright sect with a long history, most of the Dharma has only been passed down a little bit, and the real essence has long disappeared, let alone entering the realm of the Dharma."

Ah Jing nodded, not quite understanding. Although she had gained a basic understanding of magic practitioners through Zhao Qi's explanations during this period, she had never been involved in this field before, so these things were still just a vague concept in her mind.

Then, Ah Jing looked at Bai Wenzheng curiously: "What about you? I heard from the chief that you have lived for nearly a hundred years. Is this true?"

Bai Wenzheng nodded gently. Unlike Bai Hua, his memories of the past were all hidden deep in his heart. Therefore, his eyes were full of stories, deep and sharp.

"I have witnessed this country's darkest moments and have walked on the edge of chaos. I have seen loved ones die in front of my eyes and witnessed the decaying bodies of my enemies. In fact, it was only during this journey that I truly realized that the so-called immortality is actually a curse..." Bai Wen Zheng said slowly.

Ah Jing asked curiously: "If that's the case, then you haven't been able to enter the rank in such a long time?"

A haze flashed across Bai Wenzheng's eyes: "I can't control my own power. The Qiongqi bloodline is more like an unknown and powerful parasite to me. I can't even control it, let alone use it to enter the realm of the master. And before this, I didn't know much about magic practitioners."

Chen Tian was immediately interested when he heard this: "Master Hua, what do you look like when you lose control?"

Bai Wenzheng was silent for a moment, then said solemnly: "You don't want to see it. It will be a nightmare that you will never get rid of. In that war, my company was ordered to guard the high ground for 24 hours. In less than five hours, the company's ammunition was completely exhausted, and more than half of the casualties were killed or wounded. The number of enemy troops on the opposite side was still several times that of our army. After holding on for a few more hours, almost everyone in the company was killed. I only remember that I seemed to be shot, and then I lost consciousness. When I woke up again, there were corpses everywhere. I crawled out of the pile of dead bodies like a bloody monster. The enemy army, which was several times larger than ours, was completely annihilated, and they all died under my bayonet. But I knew nothing about this process. From that moment on, I truly realized that there might be a demon hidden in my body... That battle was a miracle in military terms, but I wanted to die there with my comrades. In the following years, I chose to hide myself and not interact with anyone. I hoped that by doing so, I could curb the uncontrollable power in my body. I don’t know how many years have passed like this, and I never thought that one day I would actually sit together with you, the descendants..."

Bai Wenzheng's words made the other two fall into silence. They seemed to see the bloody scene through his scattered description. How strong Bai Wenzheng was, neither Chen Tian nor A Jing knew. Until now, they had never seen Bai Wenzheng really take action.

They knew very well that Zhao Qi's emphasis on Bai Wenzhen was no accident and there must be a reason behind it.

"Report to the commander, the QH Provincial Military District called..."

The sudden voice interrupted everyone's thoughts and they all turned to look.

I saw a strong man quickly handed the telegram to Zhao Qi.

Zhao Qi was slightly surprised, wondering what the provincial military region had to say. He quickly opened the telegram, and after reading it, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

Then he looked up and said to everyone:
"Okay, I've said everything I need to say. The path of cultivation is based on the individual. I can only be your guide and guardian, but I can't replace your growth. Now, you can go into seclusion. I hope that when you come out of seclusion, you can successfully step into the position of the Five Immortals and be promoted to the realm of the Lesser Vehicle Immortal..."

The team members nodded, turned around and walked towards the cave in the back mountain together.

These caves were specially opened up by the engineering company for them to practice. Zhao Qi also specifically ordered that soldiers in the military region were not allowed to enter the back mountain at will unless ordered. This was a piece of pure land he reserved for the 788 Exploration Team, and it was also a forbidden area in the Kunlun Security Zone.

This arrangement is not due to any discriminatory treatment, but is due to the special circumstances of the 788 Exploration Team.

Watching the team members enter the cave one after another, a gratified smile appeared on Zhao Qi's face.

The day finally came. The team members were about to enter the Five Immortals. This had seemed so far away in Zhao Qi's plan, but unexpectedly, it was already within reach in the blink of an eye.

Zhao Qi was full of confidence in them, believing that they would all be able to successfully ascend to the realm of the Lesser Vehicle Immortal after this retreat. After all, the mission they had experienced was unimaginable in the Dharma Ending Age. Even in ancient times, when magic practitioners still existed, such training was not something that ordinary cultivators could experience.

The trials and training that the 788 Exploration Team had gone through were enough to enable them to cope with all the difficulties they were currently facing in their cultivation.

Only after all the team members disappeared into the cave did Zhao Qi look at the telegram in his hand again.

The telegram was a congratulatory message from Commander Jiang, and also informed Zhao Qi that the war zone's attitude towards them had changed.

This surprised Zhao Qi a little. He didn't know how much information Zhang Wei, commander of the Western Theater Command, had obtained about the 788 Exploration Team during this period.

However, this result is good after all, which means that the 788 Exploration Team and the Kunlun Garrison can take another step forward, and it is a big step.

Once the military region is established, the development of the 788th Force will accelerate rapidly and enter a truly high-speed development period. At the same time, only under the premise of establishing a military region can the expansion of the 788th Force related departments be further arranged.

At this moment, the long-lost system prompt sound suddenly rang in Zhao Qi's mind.

"Congratulations to the host for completing the exploration mission of the remains of the Qin Shi Huang Mausoleum. Now we are distributing rewards and remains points..."

Along with the prompt sound of task completion, a series of task reward prompts appeared in Zhao Qi's mind.

The reward for this mission was more generous than ever before, with 788 ruins points. This was the first time Zhao Qi had received so many points at once, which was enough to prove how important it was for the Exploration Team to save a dying dragon vein.

In addition, the system mall has also opened its second phase. Here, there are more items that can be exchanged, and the grades are higher, but more relic points are required.

Zhao Qi, who originally thought he had become "rich", discovered after rechecking the system mall that these 80,000 points were actually just a drop in the bucket.

However, he was not in a hurry. The military region had not yet been formally established, so there were not many places where points were needed. It was enough to use these points to train the second team temporarily.

However, before Zhao Qi could finish his sigh, the system prompt sounded again in his mind.

"Ding Di, congratulations to the host for completing one of the main construction tasks of the 788 Exploration Team: successfully forming a full-staffed exploration action team!"

"Congratulations host, you have obtained a precious thousand-year-old phoenix pill."
"Host, you have gained mastery of high-level formation techniques. This is cause for celebration."

"besides……"

This series of gains surprised Zhao Qi. He completed two tasks in one go, and the reward prompt sounds in his mind continued.

After completing the task of building a team, the system generously rewarded 10 exploration points at one time, which seemed to remind Zhao Qi of the importance of the main line construction task. As expected, after the system reward prompt sound ended, a new task reminder came.

"Main Mission 788: Host, please use as the code name to establish the Huaxia Special Military Region as soon as possible, and enjoy independent management and deployment rights..."

"Attention: This mission is extremely important. Please complete it as soon as possible! After completion, you will own a special military zone, and then unlock the construction tasks of important facilities such as the 788 Relics Prison and the Arsenal, as well as the expansion tasks of the relevant departments of 788."

"Main Mission 788: Host, please recruit soldiers as soon as possible to form a fully staffed Exploration Team and make full personnel preparations for the construction of the Special Military Region!"

"Note: This is a long-term task and can be completed step by step."

Zhao Qi's face was calm, and he didn't seem surprised by the system's reminder. He knew that although these main tasks had no clear time limit, they were undoubtedly the top priority.

More importantly, these tasks coincided with Zhao Qi's plan. The construction of the second team of the 788 Exploration Team had begun to take shape, and there were three reserve members.

Although the three of them still seemed a little confused and didn't know much about the 788 Exploration Team, in Zhao Qi's opinion, this was not a problem, because even Bai Hua had gone through such a stage.

Therefore, it was not difficult for Zhao Qi to establish a second action team. What was more important was to allow the 788 Exploration Team to independently build a military region.

Only after completing the upgrade of the Kunlun Guard Regiment to a military region can we continue to advance subsequent construction tasks.

Of course, Zhao Qi also felt a lot less pressure at this time. After all, the Western Theater Command has begun to pay attention to the 788 Exploration Team and has even entered the review and evaluation process.

So, as long as you work hard, this day will come sooner or later.

At this time, Chen Tian and the other two looked at Zhao Qi who was standing there in a daze, and couldn't help but feel curious.

"Captain Zhao, now that Team One has gone into seclusion, is it our turn?"

Chen Tian approached Zhao Qi curiously and asked:

"When can we officially join the 788 Exploration Team?"

When asked by Chen Tian, ​​Zhao Qi came back to his senses and smiled meaningfully:
“There is an unwritten rule in the 788 Exploration Team that if you want to join, you must go through a hellish training week.

are you ready? "

Hearing this, Bai Wenzheng and A Jing also came over and stood beside Chen Tian. They were full of curiosity about the hellish training week that Zhao Qi mentioned.

Even though Bai Wenzheng had been a soldier, he had long been out of touch with the times due to his seclusion for many years. He was not familiar with the devilish training program that had emerged in the military in recent years.

What's more, the 788 Exploration Team is a special force, and what kind of training Zhao Qi has prepared for them naturally aroused the curiosity of the three people.

Chen Tian looked at Zhao Qi with full confidence:

"Captain Zhao, I've been ready for a long time. As long as I can join the 788 Exploration Team, I will go through mountains of swords and seas of fire!"

Ah Jing also nodded firmly:

“The opportunity is right before my eyes, and if I miss it, I will definitely regret it for the rest of my life.

No matter what, I want to see what the devilish training of the 788 Exploration Team is like!"

Although Bai Wenzheng did not speak, his eyes revealed a firm determination. Perhaps his purpose in joining the 788 Exploration Team was different from others, but after observing for a few days, he clearly felt that Zhao Qi was a master who was hiding his true strength.

Maybe he can really help himself.

Zhao Qi looked at the three of them, nodded with a smile, and then waved his hand:
"Let's go and gather at the training ground!"

For Zhao Qi, the purpose of the three joining the 788 Exploration Team at this time is not important. Just like Zhu Qingyang and Hu Bayi, before they really shouldered the mission and responsibility, their purposes for joining the 788 Exploration Team were also different.

For example, Zhu Qingyang originally joined just to be recruited and cleaned up. But now, even the most naughty Zhu Qingyang has become a qualified team member and soldier, abiding by discipline and defending the country!
So Zhao Qi was not in a hurry to interfere with the thoughts of several people. For Chen Tian and the other two, the most urgent task was to make them clearly aware of what they were facing.

Zhao Qi had already made preparations for the Hell Week plan that the three of them were about to embark on.

……

At the same time, on the other side, Directors Shang Hui and Shang Qiu, who had returned from the Kunlun Garrison, had arrived in the capital.

Back to the familiar place, the two directors, as old acquaintances, did not exchange too many pleasantries, but said goodbye to each other directly and returned to their respective departments. After all, they had busy work to deal with every day.

On the way back to the capital, Shang Hui and Shang Qiu kept discussing the 788 Exploration Team. Of course, before returning, they willingly sent Zhuge Qing back to the old house of the Zhuge family, and repeatedly told him to study hard and not to waste the inheritance of the Zhuge family.

This fully demonstrates that the attitudes of the two have undergone earth-shaking changes.

And it was Zhao Qi who brought about this change.

On the way back, they had been discussing how to use their influence in the capital to say a few good words for Zhao Qi without causing trouble, trying to win him some opportunities among the high-level officials in the capital.

However, although they are directors and seem to have prominent positions to outsiders, their influence seems insignificant in the capital, where many talented people are hiding.

Therefore, although the two wanted to help, they couldn't think of a good way at the moment. They could only bury their feelings deep in their hearts and think about it silently.

After returning to the office, Shang Hui first dealt with several backlogged documents and solved some problems left over during his absence. (End of this chapter)
