Wu Shattered Star River

Ma Ji and Tian Rong's operation went smoother than Jiang Han had anticipated.

In just one day, the two of them had managed to get in touch with a commander, and within three days, they had met the grand commander in charge of opening up the Star Dust Realm's boundary river.

After waiting another two days and spending fifty billion divine crystals, the matter was settled…

The grand commander in charge here allowed the three hundred of them to put on military uniforms, turning them into temporary coolies to help open up the boundary river.

This grand commander even got them identity tokens, indicating that they were recruited coolies, and the procedures were legal and compliant.

On the seventh day, Jiang Han and the others received their identity tokens and completed the procedures, leaving him utterly stunned.

Does the Ancestral Realm still have any military discipline? Three hundred cultivators at the eighth level of the Dao Peering Realm were easily arranged to go in.

What if they were spies?

However, Jiang Han thought about it again. Ma Ji and the others were all commanders of the Northern Abyss Army and had identity tokens, so they couldn't be fake, and there was no question of spies.

Besides, they were only replacing soldiers to open up the boundary river, which wouldn't cause too much of an impact. It was just an unknown small interface.

The grand commander of the Ancestral Realm was already annoyed when he received the order to open up the boundary river, as it would take him and the other four grand commanders, along with hundreds of soldiers, at least ten years to open the boundary river.

Such a monotonous and boring task! Now that someone was taking the initiative to replace them, they were more than happy. Wouldn't it be nice to spend their days indulging in pleasure in Wutong City?

On the eighth day, Jiang Han and the others left the city, changed into the military uniforms outside the city, and then flew towards a large mountain called Peach Blossom Mountain.

Peach Blossom Mountain was covered with spring peach trees, and the scenery was very beautiful. There was a large courtyard on the mountain peak, where a military camp had been built.

Jiang Han followed Ma Ji and the others to meet Commander Zheng, who was in charge of this matter. Commander Zheng's combat power seemed average. Jiang Han was confident that he could kill him with one move.

Many of the three hundred commanders on Jiang Han's side were very powerful. Having just experienced a bloody battle with the three races, they exuded an aura of solemnity and were exceptionally valiant.

However, Commander Zheng only glanced at them indifferently, then looked up at the sky, looking down on them with his nostrils, his expression and tone extremely arrogant.

Ma Ji went over to negotiate, and Commander Zheng said with his hands behind his back, "Zheng Fei, take them to the boundary river!"

A young man at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm walked over, and Commander Zheng instructed, "Be honest and don't cause any trouble. If the boundary river collapses, even the Northern Abyss King won't be able to protect you!"

Ma Ji said with a smile, "We don't want to die. Commander Zheng, please rest assured!"

Commander Zheng waved his hand, and the group followed the young man at the peak of the Earth Immortal Realm towards the depths of Peach Blossom Mountain. There was a deep ditch in the mountain, filled with glowing light.

There were dozens of soldiers guarding both sides of the deep ditch, but they looked more like they were playing around here, with wine jars all over the ground…

Zheng Fei pointed to the deep ditch expressionlessly and said, "This is the Star Dust Realm's boundary river. This boundary river has been invaded by the Heavenly Astral Wind, and most of it has been blocked by astral energy. You can clear it yourselves!"

"Okay, thank you, Brother Zheng!"

Ma Ji said with a smile, and casually and discreetly handed over a spatial ring. Zheng Fei naturally accepted it.

After examining it, a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Commander Ma, you can build some camps nearby and take turns opening up the boundary river. If you need to buy any supplies, feel free to find me."

Ma Ji said with a smile, "We will definitely trouble Brother Zheng. Let's go take a look at the boundary river situation first. Please carry on, Brother Zheng."

Ma Ji took the lead and flew down into the deep ditch. Jiang Han had been impatient for a long time and followed him into the deep ditch.

Most of the other commanders went in, leaving dozens to guard outside.

After flying for a while, Jiang Han felt a light in front of his eyes, and they arrived at a boundary river.

This boundary river was really small, a hundred times smaller than the boundary river between the Northern Abyss Realm and the Ancestral Realm, only less than half a kilometer wide. Moreover, the boundary river felt extremely unstable, fluctuating from time to time.

"Boom boom boom!"

Explosions came from the distance. From here, one could see hundreds of black dots, which should be the soldiers here, opening up the boundary river.

"Go!"

Ma Ji and Jiang Han exchanged a glance, their eyes lit up, and they took the lead to fly forward.

After flying for the time it takes to burn an incense stick, they arrived at the soldiers' location.

The arrival of Ma Ji, Jiang Han, and the others startled this group of soldiers, especially when they discovered that Ma Ji and the others all had very strong auras, scaring this group of soldiers.

"We are here to open up the boundary river under the order of Commander Zheng!"

Ma Ji was not too polite to this group of soldiers. He took out a token and said, "The boundary river is now under our control. You can go back now."

The group of soldiers didn't say anything. They didn't want to work hard here, so they flew back one after another.

Ma Ji, Tian Rong, Liu Ming, and the others did not immediately bombard the boundary river but observed their surroundings.

After a moment, Tian Rong said, "This boundary river is very unstable and needs to be reinforced by engraving formations. Otherwise, if we bombard it together, it will easily collapse."

Ma Ji nodded and said, "Old Tian, you are good at this. Take a few people to set up divine formations and stabilize the boundary river first."

"Okay!"

Tian Rong flew back with nine commanders. They began to carve divine formations on the boundary river to stabilize it.

After waiting for half an hour, Tian Rong returned. He nodded, and Ma Ji waved his hand and said, "Fifty people, fire together!"

"Swish swish swish!"

Fifty streams of light flew out, hitting the slime in front, and the slime was immediately scattered into pieces, easily clearing dozens of feet of space.

"A hundred people, fire together!"

Ma Ji ordered again, and a hundred people fired streams of light, fiercely bombarding the slime in front.

This time, the reaction was greater. A hundred feet of space was cleared in front, but the boundary river fluctuated violently, seeming to be on the verge of collapse.

Ma Ji sensed it and said, "That's about it. Only a hundred people can attack at the same time. Any more, and this boundary river won't be able to withstand it."

Jiang Han asked with concern, "At this rate, how long will it take?"

Ma Ji took out a document and looked through it. After calculating for a while, he said, "If all goes well, it should take about half a year. This boundary river is not very long!"

"Hmm…"

Jiang Han calculated that, according to Xia Jiuge's investigation, the Barbarians should need at least another year before they can descend, so there was plenty of time.

Seeing Jiang Han's expression relax, Ma Ji said with a smile, "Alright, go back to Peach Blossom Mountain to cultivate. You don't have to worry about things here."

"Liu Ming, take some people out to build camps first. Our three hundred people will take turns bombarding, day and night, so everyone will have enough time to rest and won't be too tired."

"How can that be?"

Jiang Han said somewhat embarrassed, "You are all here to help me. How can I slack off? Let me work together."

"Hahaha!"

Ma Ji said with a smile, "Your realm is only at the seventh level of the Dao Peering Realm. Although you have several perverted Dao techniques, you are not as efficient as we are at opening up the boundary river."

"Alright… We are all brothers, so don't be so polite. Cultivate well and raise your realm. When you cultivate to the ninth level of the Dao Peering Realm and become a sealed lord, don't forget your brothers."

The other commanders all echoed with smiles. To them, opening up the boundary river was just a small matter.

Jiang Han has not truly risen yet. Being able to build a good relationship with him now means that everyone will benefit when he rises in the future.

"Thank you, everyone!"

Jiang Han was a grateful person and didn't act pretentiously. He cupped his hands in thanks and followed Liu Ming and the others out.
