The Mortal's Path to Immortality

"What's the name of this cultivator? How could he appear in the area we are responsible for?" In a stronghold of the Demon-Slaying Alliance, a Nascent Soul cultivator pointed at the scene in front of him and said.

In front of him stood a two-meter-high magic mirror.

On it, the footage of Cao Rui fighting the demon team just now was repeatedly played.

Cao Rui stood there with a cold face, surrounded by swords like rain, with his right hand holding a sword formula and his left hand behind his back, exuding a sharp aura.

And around him, there were explosions of demon spirits and bodies, so majestic.

All the Jindan cultivators under his command shook their heads to indicate that they didn't know him.

The Nascent Soul cultivator murmured: "It seems that he should be a casual cultivator who just came out of the mountain."

He thought to himself that this Jindan cultivator was so powerful, but he looked like a casual cultivator. If he could recruit him to his own banner, it would undoubtedly be a huge help to him.

So, he decided to send a guard to find the monk and bring him back to the base.

"Yunxiao, go and bring this monk to me, and be nice." The guard said to a young Jindan monk beside him.

"Yes, elder!" The young Jindan monk nodded slightly, set up a light and flew away.

......

Cao Rui grabbed Shi Shatian and Li Tianxing one by one.

After escaping for a distance, he landed from the air.

Cao Rui's consciousness was so sharp that he could sense that he was being spied on when he was fighting with the demons.

"The Demon-Slaying Alliance should have set up a monitoring device nearby."

In this case, the Demon-Slaying Alliance should have discovered the traces of the three people.

Therefore, Cao Rui landed from the air and walked slowly forward.

Sure enough, not long after, a light came from the horizon.

The light of escape landed in front of Cao Rui and the other two.

"Daoyou, please stay!"

The person who landed on the ground was a young cultivator.

He was promoted to Jindan at a young age, and his talent was obvious.

"Daoyou, are you rushing to the front line looking for the Demon-Slaying Alliance?" the cultivator asked.

Cao Rui nodded slightly, and had already prepared a set of rhetoric in his mind: "The three of us are all independent cultivators. We met by chance on the road. We decided to travel together because we share the same ideals. The purpose is to join the Demon-Slaying Alliance and fight against the demons together." He looked at the other party steadily, hoping to leave a reliable impression on him.

The cultivator on the opposite side showed a look of realization when he heard the words, and nodded to show his understanding.

He continued, "Fellow Daoist, your news seems to be a little delayed. Since Ling Xiao Sword Ancestor became a master and killed two demon kings, the ancestor himself was also severely injured. Therefore, we have to move the defense line back."

There was a trace of worry in his tone. Ling Xiao Sword Ancestor was the confidence of the entire Hongzhou in fighting against the demons. If Ling Xiao Sword Ancestor did not come out of retreat, the entire Demon-Slaying Alliance would be in a state of anxiety.

"Previously, setting up a defense line close to the natural moat could effectively block the invasion of the demons, but the bodies of the demons are extremely strong, and they are like fish in water in the dead air environment of the natural moat, which is very unfavorable for us human cultivators."

The cultivator continued to explain.

"So, now we have established a demon-killing stronghold over a hundred miles of the natural moat."

Although this will lengthen the defense line, which may cause some demons to occasionally break through the defense line and invade the inland areas, through the clear buffer zone of more than a hundred miles without dead air, we can grasp the movements of the demons in advance and make full combat preparations when fighting. "

"Now, overall, after the defense line is moved to the rear, our losses are smaller. "

Cao Rui heard this and showed a look of understanding.

That's indeed the truth.

Before, the Hongzhou cultivators went deep into the natural chasm to fight the demons. They seemed fearless and full of momentum, but in the dead air of the natural chasm, only the human cultivators could be more restricted.

In the past six months, the casualties of the Hongzhou cultivators have also been numerous.

It is a wise move to withdraw the front line while Lingxiao Sword Ancestor is injured and in seclusion.

"To the commander of the second army of the Demon-Slaying Alliance, Gong Yunxiao, if you want to join the alliance, you might as well go with you to meet the commander of the second army now!"

"The alliance has deployed various detection instruments in the buffer zone to learn about the movements of the demons in advance."

"Before, we saw your performance through the detector, and the commander also wanted to see you in person. "

Gong Yunxiao's mind flashed the terrifying scene of Cao Rui destroying the team alone, and he admired Cao Rui very much.

As for Shi Shatian, a physical cultivator, his performance was not bad, but compared with Cao Rui, he was nothing and was not qualified to be the leader.

Li Tianxing, a foundation-building cultivator, was even worse, and Gong Yunxiao did not take him seriously.

Gong? Cao Rui's heart moved slightly. It seemed that he had a deep connection with the Gong family, one of the five immortal cultivation families in Hongzhou.

However, Cao Rui did not forget the main purpose of his trip, which was to help Shi Shatian and Li Tianxing get used to the front-line war and prepare for the subsequent live broadcast to the Yunzhou cultivators.

"I don't know if the commander wants to see you or the three of you? "Cao Rui asked.

Duke Yunxiao bowed: "The commander only said that he wanted to see a fellow Taoist. By the way, I don't know what to call you, fellow Taoist?"

Cao Rui thought for a while and said: "I am Chen Fugui, it is a good thing for you to go to see the commander."

"It's just that these two little brothers came to the front line with you. The three of you are friends regardless of age, and you have even sworn to be brothers."

"They are all for you to kill the demons, but you don't want to see them get into trouble."

"Especially Brother Li, who is only at the foundation-building stage, I wonder if he can be properly arranged in the Demon-Slaying Alliance?"

Gong Yunxiao said: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Chen, I will follow up on the arrangements made by the two fellow Daoists."

These words cannot be said too clearly.

The Demon-Slaying Alliance is a public welfare organization after all.

They are all for the unity against the demons.

Even if you have to use connections to arrange a safe position, you have to do it quietly.

Cao Rui naturally understood in his heart, and nodded slightly and said: "In this case, please lead the way and take us to the Demon-Slaying Alliance."

"Please follow me!"

Gong Yunxiao set up the escape light and moved forward.

Cao Rui and the other two followed behind.

Not long after, a war pagoda similar to the previous Babel Tower appeared in Cao Rui's consciousness.

Beside the war pagoda, teams of cultivators came in and out from time to time.

In the main hall of the pagoda, Gong Yunxiao called another Jindan cultivator to arrange the positions of Li Tianxing and Shi Shatian.

"You two should keep a low profile and put your own safety first."

"I will come to you again after a while." Cao Rui said.

Li Tianxing and Shi Shatian nodded in response, and then followed the Jindan cultivators who came and left.

"It seems that the relationship between Daoyou Chen and the two brothers is very deep." Gong Yunxiao, who was on the side, saw this scene and said.

Cao Rui smiled faintly: "Those who share the same ideals are rare, and we should cherish them."

"Please lead the way, Daoyou Gong, and take me to see the commander."

Gong Yunxiao nodded and said: "Daoyou Chen, please follow me!"
