Cultivation Of Immortality: Starting From Working As A Cook In A Weapon-Refining Shop

After the incident in the Nanshan Mining Area was over and the defenders of the new mine arrived, Lu Yu followed the large army back to Linyuan City to rest.

In the following months, the Nanming Continent finally became more peaceful, and the Liuyun Sect never received such a large-scale combat mission again.

After all, this is a non-war period, and there won't be many such large-scale conflicts.

Usually, the tasks are mainly patrolling, guarding and escorting. Most of them are completed by several teams working together without much risk.

This disappointed Lu Yu, who wanted to continue to make a fortune from war. After all, he needed a lot of spiritual stones to practice.

Without windfall, it is difficult to advance quickly.

He could only work part-time while doing tasks, refining some small magic weapons and selling them to support his family.

Fortunately, a few months later, with his unremitting efforts, he finally broke through to the eighth level of Qi training.

With his qualifications as a Five Elements Spiritual Root, reaching the eighth level of Qi training at his age is worthy of celebration.

…………………………………………

One morning half a year later, Team Shen Jing finally received a special mission: to go to the depths of the Million Mountains to secretly pick up a spy who had entered the Nanming Realm many years ago to inquire about information, and bring important information back to the camp.

The basic reward for this task is particularly high. Depending on the importance of the message, there will be additional rewards with no upper limit.

This made everyone in the team a little excited.

Such a task is not easily received.

Before it was fully light, Lu Yu followed the team and set off secretly from the military camp in high spirits.

The current team has many new faces compared to when we first arrived.

After more than half a year, some team members died, some team members were assigned other tasks, and only a few old people remained. The others were reintegrated from other teams.

And Lu Yu was honored to become one of the few old people.

After traveling all night and day, the team finally arrived at the connection point marked by the mission in the early morning of the fifth day.

However, the person they wanted to meet did not appear for a long time.

Everyone had to wait around silently.

After all, the time agreed upon before was only an approximate time, and deviations are normal.

After an unknown amount of time, the Ouija board that had just been refined recently in Lu Yu's hand suddenly lit up, and the dial showed that a red dot was approaching rapidly.

"Someone is coming." Lu Yu reminded Shen Jing through a message.

"Where is it? Didn't you see it?" Shen Jing looked around, but didn't find any movement.

"Still ten miles away." Lu Yu said calmly.

"Are your skin itchy? You can see it from ten miles away? People who don't know think you are a powerful senior somewhere!" Shen Jing couldn't help but roll her eyes when she heard this.

This kid was actually in the mood to tease her.

"If you don't believe me, I'll knock you down!" Lu Yu said nothing.

It didn't matter anyway, she would see it soon.

However, not long after, an accident happened. A large number of red dots appeared on the Ouija board, all coming in this direction.

"No, there is a group of people chasing us. There are quite a few of them! Hurry and ambush them!" Lu Yu said anxiously.

"Okay, Lu Yu, I'll get angry if you keep talking!" Shen Jing was a little impatient.

"What I said is true!" Lu Yu frowned.

"Are you serious? Who do you think you are?" Shen Jing glared at Lu Yu fiercely.

Lu Yu sighed helplessly when he saw this, but he still spoke softly.

Not long after, a figure actually appeared in the distance, approaching quickly.

Shen Jing was a little surprised, glanced at Lu Yu in surprise, and quickly led the crowd to greet him.

However, Lu Yu never stepped forward and instead continued to stare at the Ouija board in his hand.

The man in the distance seemed to have been burning his life and running fast. After seeing Shen Jing and others, he finally ran out of energy. He held a jade slip high in his hand and shouted a few words out of breath:

"Quick...quick..."

However, before he could finish a sentence, he fell to the ground.

Everyone quickly flew forward to check.

"Hey, hey, what's the password?" Shen Jing asked hurriedly.

However, the man's face was pale and he wanted to say something, but he couldn't breathe and completely fainted.

"Hey, hey, wake up!"

Shen Jing took the jade slip, but did not leave quickly. Instead, she tried to save the man.

She had to confirm the person's identity first to ensure there would be no mistakes.

"Senior Sister Shen, retreat quickly!"

Seeing the red dot behind getting closer, Lu Yu said anxiously.

However, Shen Jing had no intention of leaving.

Seeing that it was too late, Lu Yu cursed secretly, "This stupid woman!"

He turned around and ran deep into the woods without stopping for a moment.

…………………………………………

While everyone is trying their best to rescue the recipients,

A peripheral team member suddenly shouted: "No! We are surrounded!"

"What?" After hearing this, Shen Jing stood up immediately and looked around.

When she saw the densely packed figures around the forest, she suddenly panicked:

"Get out! Get out!"

However, it was too late.

I saw the enemy troops from behind surrounding them at an extremely fast speed, shooting a loud arrow into the sky, and then quickly entangled Shen Jing and others with their attacks.

At this time, Shen Jing and others wanted to run, but they couldn't, so they had to raise their troops to fight.

It's just that the other party's strength is no worse than Shen Jing and others, and they only care about entangled, not desperate.

Shen Jing led the team to break through several times but failed to get rid of the enemy.

Seeing that the second batch of enemy troops was about to arrive, the team members were all anxious and urged: "Captain Shen, break out quickly! Leave us alone!"

"No! I can't give up on you!"

Shen Jing refused. She brought these people out and asked her to abandon them and escape alone. She couldn't do it.

She gritted her teeth and burned her spiritual power to fight hard, hoping to take them all back.

"Captain Shen, now is not the time to worry about this, let's go!"

"Yes, Captain Shen! The mission is the most important!"

...

Hearing this, Shen Jing hesitated.

Looking at the familiar teammates in front of her, her eyes were misted, but she still couldn't calm down.

However, reality is always cruel, and she missed the last opportunity to escape with such a slight hesitation.

The second group of troops from the opposite side quickly arrived on the battlefield and surrounded everyone as soon as they came up.

The most terrible thing is that there are actually monks from the ninth level of foundation building inside, which is several levels higher than the quiet fourth level of foundation building.

Under the full strength of the monks at the ninth level of foundation building, Shen Jing fought hard with the opponent for a few times, and soon suffered serious internal injuries.

"It's over, the whole army is going to be annihilated..."

Seeing the teammates around him fall down one by one, Shen Jing's heart suddenly felt like a knife, and she was filled with regret.

At this time, she finally remembered Lu Yu's advice.

If only I had listened to Lu Yu's words!

It's a pity that there is no regret medicine in this world.

Soon, out of the thirty people in Xuantian's team, only Shen Jing was left struggling to support them.

"Are we really going to fall here this time?"

Shen Jing looked around and smiled miserably.

The aftereffects of burning spiritual power have already appeared, she is too tired! She was helpless.

She was too embarrassed to face her dead comrades again.

So be it......
