People are in fantasy, start speedrunning

Chapter 72 They are all my stepping stones to build the foundation

"Who?!"

Around Wanwei City, there are a large number of scouts within a hundred miles radius. Scouts are also active in key locations within a thousand miles radius. Scouts are also indispensable in other remote places.

As long as there is any movement around, you can clearly see it.

Hearing the noise, these scouts were also very nervous.

After all, if someone disobeys the rules and sends people from the Foundation Establishment and Dragon Transformation Realm over, it will be over.

But they don't know that the Tongtian election is coming soon, and all the major holy places are preparing for the Tongtian election. If any sect in the continent dares to cause trouble, they will be killed.

There was an awkward sound, and soon a short puppet came into view. The next moment, it staggered two steps and fell to the ground. It was obvious that the inlaid spiritual stone was exhausted.

The scouts hiding in the dark waited quietly for a moment. When they saw that there was indeed no movement, a scout cautiously stepped forward to check.

He discovered that it was indeed just an ordinary puppet, but soon he saw several image stones with blood stains on them.

He picked up the photo stone and activated it. The next moment, the scene he saw was so shocking that he couldn't help but exclaim.

"The essence of heaven and earth!"

-

"Report!"

Wanwei City, the city lord's mansion.

The city lord Zhu Xianming is a great monk in the Yuanling realm, but this place is the Red Valley battlefield, so as the city lord, he is not allowed to leave the scope of Wanwei City.

His presence is to intimidate the young people in Wanwei City, and at the same time stick to Wanwei City. Unless it is absolutely necessary, one cannot step out of Wanwei City.

This is a commission from the Five Sects of Hengshan.

After all, if he leaves for a moment and is known by the other two regions, once Wanwei City is lost, it is very likely that a single spark will start a prairie fire, leading to the fall of the southern Hengshan Region.

It's just that this tacit understanding has lasted for countless years. No one in the three domains has broken the unspoken rules of the Red Valley battlefield. They all acquiesce that this place is the training battlefield for their outer disciples.

A sound of 'report' disturbed Zhu Xianming's tea-sipping moment.

"What's the matter?"

"Sir, we found an essence of heaven and earth in Broken Soul Valley." The visitor knelt down on one knee and raised several image stones above his head with both hands.

The essence of heaven and earth?

Zhu Xianming muttered, but there was no disturbance in his heart.

First, he is a casual cultivator. His parents have passed away long ago. He has no Taoist companions, no heirs, and no apprentices. This thing has little effect on him.

The reason for guarding Wanwei City was because I had something to ask the Five Sects and promised to guard Wanwei City for a hundred years.

Second, he is not an alchemist, so naturally he has little interest in the essence of heaven and earth.

Of course, if you can get an essence of heaven and earth, going to a holy land to exchange for resources is also a beautiful thing.

He reached out to take the image stone, and after activating it, what appeared in front of him was a place shrouded in light mist.

This terrain looks like Broken Soul Cliff at first glance. Only Broken Soul Cliff is shrouded in fog all year round due to the heaven and earth. Although there is a road leading to the three realms, it is not the main pass.

The main reason is that terrain. If the army that is forging and gathering energy passes by, if there is an ambush, the whole army will basically be annihilated. This kind of terrain is really stupid.

Only some profiteers who resell supplies will pass through here.

The perspective of the shadow stone is from bottom to top. Through the light mist, you can vaguely see a dreamlike spiritual flower on the cliff of the valley.

With just one glance, Zhu Xianming knew that this was indeed the essence of heaven and earth.

"It's just a bit clumsy."

It just so happened that the mist at Duanhun Cliff became lighter, and an essence of heaven and earth appeared?

Although the image on the recording stone is shaky, there is a fatal flaw, and that is the blood stains on the recording stone.

how? During the battle, you were beaten to death, and you still took the photo stone to record it?

Thinking about it, Zhu Xianming took a sip of tea and said, "Here comes someone."

"grown ups!"

"I'm going to announce the city lord's mission and recruit an army of 30,000. I said that there is an essence of heaven and earth in the Soul-Desolating Valley. If I can capture it, I will reward the whole army. Let Gongsun Li lead the army this time." "Yes, sir."

After giving the order, Zhu Xianming stopped caring about the matter.

As for why he still had to let go after knowing that it was a clumsy strategy, it was naturally because an army of thirty thousand was just a drop in the bucket to Wanwei City.

There are more than 200 million people in the entire Wanwei City. This does not include the large number of counties, towns and villages around Wanwei City. If added together, there are even more monks who train and gather energy.

More than 70% of the people are monks in Wanwei City. Most of these people go to Wanwei City to train their bodies or gather energy. They all come to Wanwei City to practice or take on tasks to earn spiritual stones.

Although he didn't care about the essence of heaven and earth, if he could get it, it would be best to get it.

It's better than nothing. This thing is a good thing to make friends with those big monks who like juniors.

As for sending scouts to investigate, wouldn't it mean that the day lilies are already cold? Coupled with the terrain of Broken Soul Valley, it is useless no matter how many people there are, an army of 30,000 is just right.

If you can't get it, it's just a waste of time for the 30,000 troops.

What if you were ambushed? Only 30,000 troops died, the losses were high. Anyway, these people are here to gain experience, so why not go there to gain experience?

Fragrant, this Longyue tea was really fragrant. Zhu Xianming squinted and enjoyed it.

……

Gongsun Li is an old man with white hair and beard at the ninth level of Qi Gathering. After receiving the mission from the city lord, he naturally accepted the order.

Since it was a city lord mission, and there were constant wars on the Red Valley battlefield, the 30,000-strong army was recruited and assembled quickly.

In addition, Gongsun Li was an experienced commander. Many people who were still considering whether to take the mission made up their minds when they saw it was him.

"The destination is Soul Broken Cliff. Except for the major generals, everyone is walking."

Unless it is a monster mount, a monk is not afraid of cavalry charges at all.

An Essence of Heaven and Earth appears. Since the city lord has recruited an army of 30,000 people, there will definitely be a bloody battle under the Soul-Desolating Cliff.

Gongsun Li looked up and seemed to have seen an extremely bloody meat grinding mill.

"set off!"

Although the body forging realm and the gas gathering realm are not placed in the monk realm, they are much more powerful than mortals.

Just like Foundation Establishment can kill and forge bodies and gather Qi at will, they can also kill mortals at will.

Before Gongsun Li led his army to the foot of Broken Soul Cliff, he heard loud shouts of killing that resounded through the sky. The thick smell of blood could be clearly smelled even from a long distance away.

Gongsun Li's expression changed. He was not surprised that there was someone here because the city lord did not inform him of the details. He only knew that there was an Essence of Heaven and Earth in Duanhun Cliff.

And his purpose is to bring back the essence of heaven and earth.

Now the shouts of killing in Duanhun Cliff are shaking the sky. Gongsun Li is afraid that someone will take advantage of the chaos to rob and take away the essence of heaven and earth.

He first sent out a few teams from the ninth level of Qi Gathering to search for the essence of heaven and earth, and then led the remaining people directly into the thick fog.

"kill!"

It was already evening, and the afterglow of the setting sun shone on the Broken Soul Cliff, making the outline of this dangerous place even more steep.

At the same time, Duanhun Cliff is covered with a thin layer of golden gauze, and surrounded by mist. Just one glance makes you sigh, it is such a beautiful place like a fairyland.

However, in this beautiful place, you can see blood and limbs flying through the fog.

It's a pity that there was thick fog, otherwise it would have been a cruel and bloody battlefield picture when combined with the sunset.

Zhou Xuan, who was standing on the cliff at the moment, had no expression on his face. When he saw someone from the Qi Gathering Realm stepping forward to snatch the dream-like flower, the flying sword on his waist flashed like a thunder shadow.

These Qi Gathering monks only felt a flash of purple in their eyes, and before they could react, they were already beheaded.

I don’t know how many people were killed. When Zhou Xuan heard the sound of the earth shaking not far away, he couldn’t help but reveal a cruel smile:

"Okay, okay! It's finally here. You can become a stepping stone for me to build my foundation. Your lives are much more valuable than others."

　Thanks to the leader of the mage drifting boss, the cute leader will be added to the shelves ^_^
