Chapter Thirty-Seven: Fishing in Troubled Waters
As some philosophers said, people are profit-oriented, almost where there are interests, there are people, people here not only refer to commoners, but also refer to mortals, but also to immortals, gods and demons. Mortals strive for profit in order to live a better life, so as long as it can make their life better, they will fight, those are their interests; businessmen strive for profit in order to become richer, so money is their profit; literati have a good name, they can even die for the sake of fame, how many famous ministers in ancient times have died on the name, so the name is their profit; the right minister is good, with the power they have everything, fame, money, A better life, so their profit is the right; martial arts are good at martial arts, and if there is martial arts, there will be courage, and there will be the right to move forward , so force is their benefit, and the same is true of immortals, demons, gods, and men, they practice hard, just to make their own lives longer, so that they become more powerful, this kind of life becomes longer does not refer to a year or two, but to a hundred years as a calculation, taking immortal cultivators as an example, when practicing qi, the body can live for a hundred years, after building a foundation, the life can be two hundred years old, turn into a golden pill, life up to five hundred years old, become a yuan baby, life up to a thousand years old, and so on, if you reach the time of immortals, life is almost infinite compared to mortals, but, after all, there is a limit, so they still need to practice, It can be said that after embarking on this road, everything will make way for life, and the powerful immortal power Shenyuan is for the guarantee of immortality, otherwise let an immortal be bullied by a mortal, then it will be repaid? And in the long life, those spells and magic are the most important guarantee of their lives. It can be said that they can fight hard for almost anything for this, and after such a long life with their family and friends one by one. The persistence in their hearts is only the pursuit of endless life, so many of them are becoming more and more alien to mortals in their hearts. They no longer think they are one of them, for them there is not much difference between civilians and ants, which is why ordinary immortals are disdainful of civilians on the Zhongzhou continent. This is also the reason why those sects in the Zhongzhou Continent are reluctant to do more except for the few cultivators' cities, if it weren't for the rampant monsters that will destroy the cultivation resources of the entire continent, they may be more willing to stay in their Lingshan Blessing Caves, for them, it is very filthy outside.
However, this is no longer the case. In the Demon Domain, because of the demonstration of the expeditionary force, because of the countless monsters' body things, what horns, hearts, blood, bones, Skins and the like, which can be used to practice or arm themselves, have appeared in a large number of various markets in Zhongzhou, so that many people can obtain more powerful power and longer lives, which make them red-eyed, so that those strong people who are ignorant of the world can see a glimmer of hope for ascending to the immortal realm, and if they add those things brought from the demon world, they are even more red-eyed. You must know that the entire Zhongzhou Continent is actually not small. And the territory controlled by the five major sects is actually very limited, even if it is not these, there are many strong people who do not belong to the five major sects hidden in all corners of the world, so there are very many strong people above the Venerable in the entire Zhongzhou Continent. It's just that due to the suppression of the five major sects, there are not too many strong people who appear in front of the world, and they don't seem to want to appear in front of the world. Even when monsters attack. Under the call of the four major sects, they did not come out. After all, for them, the Zhongzhou Continent is the continent of the four major sects. It has nothing to do with them, it was like this in the past, it is like this now, and it will certainly be the same in the future; as for the expeditionary force, isn't there such a saying, that a strong dragon does not suppress the head of the earth? No matter how strong the expeditionary force is, it will still have to go after all. No matter how good the monsters are, they will still be driven away by the people of the fairy world after all, and they can see this very clearly. But now it's different, the guerrilla tactics of the expeditionary force, constantly from the bodies of those weak monsters, got countless monsters on the body of things, you know, those monsters are from the demon world, they casually brought a worthless stone, came to this world that can be used to refine artifacts, not to mention that there are countless monsters here, let people hunt them, what kind of opportunity is this? They have countless reasons to avoid war, but they only need one reason to join it.
The power of example is infinite, countless sects or scattered cultivators are attracted by these things, under the guidance of the tactics of the expeditionary force, they began to march towards the demon domain from all parts of the Zhongzhou Continent, for safety, there are very few people in each of their teams, and there may be only one person at least, that is a strong person who is extremely confident in his own strength, and there are only more than a hundred, these are the teams that eat the countless low-level monsters. The sect people on the defense line watched countless strong people enter the Demon Domain from the gaps in those formations, enter the Demon Domain from the sky, and even enter the Demon Domain directly from the city where they are located, and for a while everyone was a little stupid, when did there be so many strong people in the entire Zhongzhou? When defending, there were not so many people to help, and when they were defeated, they didn't see so many people to help, and now the expeditionary force has set a good example, and all the people have flocked to it.
In a protective array, two monks in the infancy stage were standing in the big array, looking at the Venerable who flew over from the sky from time to time, and couldn't help but feel full of emotion in their hearts, for this war, with their strength, they are undoubtedly similar to ants, and their role is almost the role of ants, just to protect the formation, maintain the integrity of the formation and the vigilance of the formation, as for letting them find any enemies or other things, forget it, even if those monsters run in front of them, they sometimes can't see itγ
"Alas, people really can't be compared with each other!" Lao Yu sighed.
"What's wrong?" said Old Song on the side.
"Look at the people flying around in the sky. Lao Yu didn't look up, they didn't know too much about His Holiness's abilities, but he knew a little. After reaching the level of the Sage, if someone is not as strong as them speaks about them. So in a way they had some feelings, so he didn't look at those people.
"What's wrong. Do you have an opinion?" "Lao Song is strange, the two have not dealt with each other for a year or two, the two of them can be regarded as neighbors, and they have been intriguing for countless years, it is nothing more than that you want to suck me, I want to be with you and other things, the two have been fighting for more than two hundred years, and they can't think of chatting together peacefully, which is something that they couldn't think of before. Now it's a real thing.
"How can there be no opinion, when the battle is in the figures, I don't see a single one, they all seem to have disappeared, no matter how the four major sects are recruited, but few of them come, now it's okay, I heard that those monsters are easy to be attacked, and they are full of countless items from the demon world. Alas, we don't know if we can survive this catastrophe? If we do, Lao Song. Let's merge the two of them, you can be the main one, and we can be the main one!" Lao Yu sighed.
"When did you change sex?" Old Song on the side heard strangely. This is a rare thing, and there was a lot of trouble in order to merge the two before.
"Just look at the people in heaven. Hemp, what is the Supreme? That's the Supreme. That's self-esteem, we closed the door, a few people fought back and forth, dead and alive, in the end, it wasn't the same as being caught here to take care of the formation? Look at them again, come if you want, go if you want, that's called immortals, look at us at that time! Then it hurts to be idle. "Lao Yu Qi said, think about the ancestor of his own sect, how majestic he is? It's not an exaggeration to say that it's calling for wind and rain, but look at it now, after being caught, he doesn't even have the qualifications to be cannon fodder, it's too shocking, you must know that the current cannon fodder is all Venerable-level figures, and they are just a Yuan Infancy! The gap is so big that he can't afford to be jealous, he really wants to learn from what others say, people don't come to the world for respect!
"Alas! If you had said this three hundred years ago, I think your achievements would have been more than that now, but now everything will be said after this war has passed! Whether we can survive or not is still a matter of two words, and whether our sect will be affected or not is also a matter of two words, what do you want to do so much? To live is to be an immortal, to be a respect, and to be a god. Don't look at them flying over one by one, but how many people will really come back alive?" sighed Lao Song.
"You are pessimistic, no matter how many people come back alive, in short, the further possibility of coming back alive will definitely be much higher, not to mention anything else, even if they are willing to leak a little into our mouths, they can make us turn into gods now, and even it is not impossible to go to Mahayana!"
"Hehe, the world says that it is good to become an immortal, how much can I forget to become an immortal? I'm tired, I can't compare to you, after this war, I will go back, explain everything clearly, and go back to my hometown to get a wife and have a baby. The path of cultivation is too tiring!" Obviously, compared with Lao Yu's high morale, Lao Song's view is much more pessimistic, and he doesn't know that the focus is on the path of cultivating immortals is cultivating the heart, and he will definitely come to the point of a land immortal like Yuanying.
On the defense line of the human race in Zhongzhou, countless people like Lao Yu and Lao Song are discussing the countless Venerable Immortals who suddenly appeared, they have always only known the five major sects in Zhongzhou, and they know that the strong ones among the big and middle sects under the five major sects have never thought that there are so many strong people hiding in the continent, and these Venerable have also infiltrated the Demon Domain.
If anyone has the most headache for this situation, then it must be a monster, after all, one aspect of their main force is directly invested in the frontal battle with Zhongzhou, in order to save troops, they also directly adopted the strategy of fighting to feed the war, but in this way, their rear is directly empty, so that the expeditionary force directly sneaked up many times, heavy losses, they also thought about pulling the main force back, put Zhongzhou alone, first eliminate the expeditionary force, the closest enemy to them, but, this is too unrealistic, one is that the expeditionary force is equivalent to a completely free car, come and go as you wantThe second is that there are few expeditionary soldiers and many strong people, so far, the monsters only know that the expeditionary force has a god-level strongman, and there is no less than 10,000 such a number, the specific number is not very clear, with a number of fifteen million people, the number of strong people in the expeditionary force is quite large, but those sects in Zhongzhou are just hidden, and they dare not release it directly. In this way, they can only advance their armies directly towards Zhongzhou, as for the life or death of those armies?
Command of the Expeditionary Force.
"On June 8, 1030 in the Huatian calendar, it was sunny.
Current situation: Our unit currently has 5,000 companies with a total of 500,000 people operating near the west coast of the Zhongzhou mainland. At present, there is no large-scale monster army operation near the west coast, in the middle and east of the demon domain, countless nameless squads in the Zhongzhou continent are active, and the scope of activity covers the entire eastern part of the demon domain, the preliminary estimate of the number of people should be about three million, and the cultivation is all Venerable and above, the number of people has increased by 100,000 compared to yesterday, and the monster is currently organizing a large army, moving towards the east from the exit of the small world, it is expected to eliminate these personnel, and will not be used for front-line battles. In the eastern part of the Demon Domain, the battle between the monsters and Zhongzhou is now on the third line of defense in Zhongzhou, among which the battle on the axis where the Great Smoky Mountain Pass and the Yang Sect is located from the exit of the small world is the most intense, and yesterday alone, the monsters launched fifteen attacks at the location of the Great Smoky Mountain Pass, and they have not stopped for almost twenty-four hours. And Zhongzhou is also a key guardian direction in this direction. The fighting in other directions was not fierce.
Except for the 500,000 troops who are carrying out guerrilla combat missions, the rest of the troops are still carrying out spiritual training.
Logistics will replenish the front line today with 500,000 new soldiers, all of whom are dominated by gods. Ask the commander for instructions. "After the routine debriefing of a staff officer on duty, the entire command sat together.
"Well, everything is going well with our plan now, but the next step is not reaching our expected goals, so we need to change our actions. After listening to the report of the staff officer on duty, Kong Ming spoke. (To be continued......)
