After receiving the magic crystal vein, Yang Rui did not stay in Qingyan Mountain for long, and directly left Qingyan Mountain with the bloody guards and returned to Black Rock City.

"Zhou Yan, I'm going to retreat for a while! During this time, you will cooperate well with the recruitment and training of the instructors!"

Yang Rui commanded Zhou Yan with a calm face.

"Yes, my lord!" Zhou Yan replied with a respectful look on his face.

After getting Zhou Yan's affirmative answer, Yang Rui waved his hand and let him leave.

After that, Yang Rui called Zhao Gang, Wang Ling, Zhou Ming, Song Tao, and Li Qi to the front of him, and said in a flat tone: "During the period of my retreat, you took the black-clothed guards and the city guards, with Black Rock City as the center, to expand around, open up the passage to the nearby cities, and capture the nearby cities, and then conduct large-scale conscription training like Black Rock City, increasing the number of city guards, black-clothed guards, and blood-clothed guards!"

In the process of expansion, if you encounter an irresistible danger, immediately ask me for help, and I will rush to the scene as soon as possible to solve the danger! Also, if you encounter mortal danger, you don't need to care about the life or death of others, you just need to save your own life!"

The Bloody Guards are a team carefully cultivated by Yang Rui, and Yang Rui has high hopes for them, but he doesn't want to die in order to save the City Guards and the Black-clothed Guards!

After all, as long as enough cities are captured and there are enough resources, there will be no shortage of city guards and black-clothed guards, and everyone in the blood-clothed guards is a person with a special physique, with strong potential, and the number is extremely scarce.

"Yes, sir!"

Hearing Yang Rui's words, Zhao Gang, Wang Ling, Song Tao, Zhou Ming, and Li Qi immediately responded with solemn faces, and then left the City Lord's Mansion and walked outside.

After the bloody guards left, Yang Rui directly set up a defensive array in a small courtyard of the City Lord's Mansion, and then took out the magic crystal veins in the space ring, sat cross-legged on the magic crystal veins, and frantically ran various exercises such as the Heavenly Thunder Sutra, Xuanhuang Body, and Tianpeng Dun, absorbing the power of the law contained in the magic crystal, improving his cultivation strength, and increasing the reserves of the power of the law in his body.

While Yang Rui was concentrating on cultivation, Zhao Gang, Wang Ling, Song Tao, Zhou Ming, and Li Qi, five blood-clothed guards, with more than 1,200 black-clothed guards and 60,000 city guards, left Black Rock City and rushed in the direction of the nearest city.

Zhou Yan took the battle puppets under Yang Rui's command to recruit soldiers in Black Rock City on a large scale, and then sent the soldiers to the barracks, along with the previous soldiers in Black Rock City, to receive training as battle puppets.

In the process of training the soldiers, the warehouses of Black Rock City were opened, and all kinds of materials were continuously sent to the barracks.

At the same time, a large amount of fierce beast and demon beast meat stored in the battle puppet space ring was also constantly taken out as food for soldiers, supplementing soldiers' training consumption, and improving soldiers' physical strength and cultivation strength.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, a month has passed.

In the past month, Zhao Gang, Wang Ling, Song Tao, Zhou Ming, and Li Qi led the city guards and black-clothed guards to open up the passages of sixteen cities in a row, put the sixteen cities under control, and carried out large-scale conscription in the sixteen cities, put them into the barracks, and trained them by puppet officers.

At the same time, the movements of the army under Yang Rui's command soon spread throughout the entire Flame Kingdom area, and all the remaining cities of the Flame Kingdom knew that there was a powerful legion that was frantically opening up roads to other cities one by one and annexing them one by one.

Some of these remnant cities of the Flame Kingdom hope that Yang Rui's army will open the passage to their own city as soon as possible, and bring their own city under control, so that their own city has a big backer, and there is no need to worry about the danger of demon beasts destroying the city.

And some cities with slightly stronger strength, or cities that are accustomed to being powerful and do not want to hand over their rights, are extremely disgusted with the army under Yang Rui's command, and begin to secretly unite, wanting to resist the erosion of Yang Rui's army together.

At this time, Yang Rui refined the magic crystals in the small magic crystal veins, and the power of the law in his body skyrocketed, and his cultivation was also promoted from the second heaven of the law realm to the third heaven of the law realm, and his strength skyrocketed, and his combat power soared directly.

Don't look at it, Yang Rui has only improved a small realm, but Yang Rui has cultivated two thousand five hundred laws at the same time, one law has improved a small realm, two thousand five hundred laws, it is equivalent to improving a full two thousand five small realms, and the power of the laws in his body has increased many times, and his combat power has grown rapidly, which can be comparable to a monk in the late stage of the Creation Realm, and he can easily kill a monk in the early stage of the Creation Realm.

"It's time to get out of the customs!"

Feeling the surging power of the law in his body, a faint smile appeared at the corner of Yang Rui's mouth, and with a soft mutter, he lifted the defensive array outside the small courtyard and walked out of the small courtyard.

"Zhou Yan, how are the soldiers of Black Rock City training?"

Yang Rui found Zhou Yan and asked with a calm face.

"My lord, the soldiers of Black Rock City have achieved great results under our training at any cost, and every soldier has made great progress and can meet the requirements of adults!" Zhou Yan replied without hesitation.

"That's good!" Yang Rui nodded lightly, and in response, he took off into the air and galloped away in the direction of the military camp outside the city.

After coming to the military camp outside Black Rock City, Yang Rui did not hesitate or hesitate at all, and immediately asked the training instructor to gather more than 50,000 soldiers, and then set up a psychedelic array to assess more than 50,000 soldiers.

However, to Yang Rui's disappointment, only one of the more than 50,000 soldiers met the requirements of the Bloody Guard, and only three hundred and sixty met the requirements of the Dark-Clothed Guard, which was far inferior to Hongyuan City, which made Yang Rui a little helpless.

After that, Yang Rui took the soldier who reached the Bloody Clothes Guard away, and the rest of the soldiers were all handed over to the instructor, who carried out the follow-up.

"Sun Rou, you have a wood spirit body, which is very suitable for cultivating wood attribute exercises, this is the Aoki Sutra, which allows you to cultivate all the way to the law realm, you stay here and cultivate well!"

After Yang Rui brought the soldier who had reached the standard of the Bloody Guard to the City Lord's Mansion of Black Rock City, as soon as his mind moved, he imprinted the exercises of the Aoki Sutra in the sea of knowledge of the female soldier, and said with a smile on his face.

After speaking, Yang Rui handed a space ring containing a large amount of elixir and ten thousand years of earth core milk to the female soldier Sun Rou, and asked her to stay in Black Rock City to cultivate on her own.

Ding! Ding!

At this moment, a crisp bell rang out from Yang Rui's space ring, making Yang Rui's heart move, and he took out a communication jade slip from the space ring, only to see a message for help, which was reflected in Yang Rui's field of vision.

"The army has encountered a Law Realm demon beast, and the Blood-Clad Guard is trying his best to resist it!"

Seeing the message for help on the communication jade slip, Yang Rui frowned slightly, muttered softly, and released the silver light boat, drove the silver light boat, turned into a silver lightning, and rushed towards the place where the blood clothes guard was.

"Golden Light Slash!"

"Ice Slash!"

"Phantom Immortal Finger!"

"Brontosaurus!"

"Vulcan Slash!"

In a dense jungle, Zhao Gang, Wang Ling, Song Tao, Zhou Ming, and Li Qi frantically agitated the mana in their bodies, urged the best treasure in their hands, and exerted their strongest magical powers, constantly bombarding a law realm black bear that was ten feet tall, covered with black hair, and full of explosive power, wanting the law realm black bear to bombard and kill on the spot.

It's just that the strength of the law realm black bear is extremely powerful, and its defense is even more amazing, allowing one after another divine powers to fall on its body, but it has never been able to break through its defense.

"Slash!"

With a crisp sound sounding in the ears of Zhao Gang and Wang Ling, a cold silver sword light flashed, and the head of the law realm black bear was cut off, and blood splattered.

At the same time, one after another invisible law power poured out from the silver sword light and entered the head of the law realm black bear, directly crushing the head of the law realm black bear, destroying the soul, causing it to die tragically on the spot and become a headless corpse.

"I've seen my lord!"

Looking at the five people who flew in front of him, Yang Rui, Zhao Gang, Wang Ling, Song Tao, Zhou Ming, and Li Qi, who were dressed in white, hurriedly greeted loudly with respectful faces.

"Where did this Law Realm black bear come from, and where is his lair?"

With a wave of his hand, Yang Rui put the corpse of the law realm black bear into the space ring, frowned slightly, and asked Zhao Gang.

"My lord, this Law Realm Black Bear ran down from the Bamboo Forest Mountain more than a hundred miles away! It is said that the spiritual energy on the Bamboo Forest Mountain is extremely rich, and there is a Law Crystal Vein that exists, giving birth to countless demon beasts, among which the number of Law Realm demon beasts is not a few!"

As soon as Yang Rui's voice fell, Zhao Gang hurriedly reported the information he had obtained to Yang Rui.

"Bamboo Forest Mountain, Law Crystal Vein!" Yang Rui flashed a look of anticipation in his eyes, and muttered softly.

After muttering, Yang Rui turned his gaze to Zhao Gang and the five and said, "The five of you go with me to Zhulin Mountain and clear the demon beasts on Zhulin Mountain!"

"Yes, my lord!" Zhao Gang and the five of them hurriedly responded.

Immediately afterwards, I saw Yang Rui wave his hand, and he rolled up Zhao Gang and the five of them, took them to the silver light boat, drove the silver light boat, turned into a silver lightning, and galloped away in the direction of Zhulin Mountain.

The city guards and black-clothed guards stationed nearby continued to rush in the direction of a city as originally planned.

The target city of the City Guards, the strongest is only the cultivation strength of the Yuan Infant Realm, and the Black-clothed Guards and the City Guards are fully capable of conquering it, and there is no need for Yang Rui and the Black-clothed Guards to go out in person!

Soon, Yang Rui drove the silver boat to the sky above Zhulin Mountain, and a strong aura emanated from Zhulin Mountain, making the corners of Yang Rui's mouth reveal a thick look of expectation.

Roar! Roar!

At this moment, angry roars came out of the Bamboo Forest Mountain, and powerful demon beasts rose into the air one after another, and pounced on Yang Rui and his party who flew over the Bamboo Forest Mountain.

In the process of pounced on Yang Rui and his party, one after another powerful magic spells were issued from the bodies of one demon beast after another, and they bombarded Yang Rui and his party, wanting to kill Yang Rui and his party on the spot.
