Pursuing Longevity With an Immortal Mansion

Chapter 410 Fire Feather Taoist Soldier

Sighing the power of the magic weapon and restraining the greed in his heart, Liu Yu walked towards his team's position.

The school grounds were crowded at this time, densely packed with countless people. It was roughly estimated that there were about 20,000 to 30,000 people, or even more.

Even if each person made only a little sound, the scene was extremely noisy.

It's just that no matter how loud the noise is, it can't compare with the sound of the Lieyang Drum, and it can't affect the sound of the drum at all.

Ignoring the monks greeting him around him, Liu Yu let go of his spiritual sense.

After a while, somewhere in the school grounds, I felt some familiar smells.

Turning around and walking towards the source of the breath, several familiar figures soon came into view.

One of the first two women is wearing purple clothes, with a serious expression and a cold temperament. One of them has long dark red hair and a pale face with a cold expression.

It was Jiang Qiushui and Leng Yuexin!

"Senior Brother Liu"

"Senior Brother Qingyang"

Because he didn't deliberately restrain his aura, Liu Yu was noticed by the two women before he even got close, and they immediately came to greet her.

"Um."

"Junior sister Jiang, have all the monks in our team assembled?"

Liu Yu responded, but without stopping, he walked straight towards the square array and asked calmly.

"Senior brother, we have all assembled and there is no one absent."

The two women followed behind, and Jiang Qiushui replied.

I don't know when, the sound of the Lieyang Drum has disappeared, and the power to confuse people and boost morale has slowly faded away.

Liu Yu nodded slightly, paused in front of the square formation, and glanced at these monks.

Counting everyone in the team, there are now more than 800 monks in the Qi Refining Stage and 23 monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

In terms of overall strength, among the twelve Qingfeng teams, it is certainly not the strongest, but it is not the weakest either.

In his pupils as dark as ink,

Shining light of reason.

Liu Yu's gaze seemed to be filled with inexplicable pressure. No matter where he was, the Qi Refining Monk or the Foundation Establishing Monk all lowered their heads.

Scanned by this gaze, these monks couldn't help but feel depressed in their hearts, and they all kept silent, for fear of becoming the target of killing chickens to scare monkeys and establish their dignity.

However, with Liu Yu's current strength, there is no need for these monks to kill chickens to scare monkeys.

Therefore, the situation that many monks imagined did not happen.

After a long silence, just when some monks were becoming more depressed and uncomfortable, he spoke:

"Congratulations everyone, the first thing Liu did when he returned to the camp was to report on the mission."

"Of course, your contribution is indispensable for this."

"The elders have recognized your merits. The rewards and graces you have received previously have also been recognized by the sect. Liu has kept his word."

"Those resource points and resources will always be effective, and you can pass them on to future generations forever."

A sonorous and powerful voice, neither loud nor small, sounded around every monk in the team.

Liu Yu used audio magic to restrict the sound to a certain range. It is difficult to hear the specific content outside the range, unless you use your spiritual sense to spy on it.

"Thank you, Lord!"

"Thank you, fellow Taoist Qingyang!"

The faces of the foundation-building monks were filled with joy, and they immediately reacted and thanked Liu Yu.

Why are they working so hard?

Isn’t it just for resources, isn’t it just for resource points that can be passed down?

Just occupying it is not enough. If the name is not justified, other powerful monks can find any reason to seize it.

Now the areas where their families and forces are located are all within the control of Yuanyang Sect.

Therefore, if you want to maintain your existing interests, you must be recognized by the "Shangzong".

Now that not only had they gained benefits, but they had also been recognized by the Shangzong as legitimate, how could they not be happy?

Among them, Wei Guangzheng and others were the happiest.

These people are indeed the most dedicated when performing tasks, and the family disciples are also very dedicated.

Therefore, he received many rewards from Liu Yu, including more than one second-level resource point.

As long as the gains can be digested, it is by no means a delusion for the Wei family to double its strength or even rise.

"No need to be too polite, Liu promised me a thousand pieces of gold."

"What we have now is what all fellow Taoists deserve for their hard work."

Liu Yu did not appear unkind at this time. Instead, he greeted the cultivators politely, looking like a courteous corporal.

But then, his conversation changed:

"However, everything will not officially take effect until Baiyun Temple is destroyed."

"So in the upcoming battle, all fellow Taoists, please do your best."

His smile faded and he said seriously.

"I'm waiting for my wish"

Wei Guangzheng, Meng Wenxing and others seemed to have a rough draft in their minds, and they answered seriously and politely without finding any faults.

Seeing this, Liu Yu nodded with satisfaction.

After a few more words of instruction, when he saw that it was almost done, he kept silent and waited for the arrival of the elders.

Wearing a black robe and holding his hands behind his back, he explained the advantages and disadvantages and inspired the fighting spirit of the monks in the team.

Then he turned his attention to other teams, and even other large and small monk formations.

Senior sister Li Buyu's square formation was not far from Liu Yu, with two square formations separated in the middle.

If you listen carefully, you can still hear her cold lecturing voice. If you glance slightly, you will find that the monks in her square formation are silent.

"My senior sister is much more skilled in my methods than I am."

"That's right. She comes from a prominent family and has been trained in this field since she was a child."

"And I'm only a half-way monk, so it's natural that I'm a little behind."

After listening carefully for a while, Liu Yu sighed secretly.

However, he didn't pay too much attention to it. The most important thing for a cultivator is the understanding of the truth of the great road and the level of strength.

It's similar to the way of imperial control, etc., but it's just a small way.

But this situation made Liu Yu think of a sentence from his previous life.

"Why can't the accumulation of three generations of my grandparents be as good as your ten years of hard study?"

On this road to immortality, as resources for cultivating immortals become increasingly scarce, family background is indeed too important.

Sometimes it is simply impossible to bridge the gap with just hard work.

For a monk without a foundation, even building a foundation is a huge obstacle. However, some monks from big families have foundation-building pills at their fingertips.

One side has no foundation and can only accumulate slowly, while the other side's knowledge of cultivating immortals is passed down from generation to generation, and the gap cannot be calculated.

We have to admit the reality that unless there is a special opportunity, it is impossible to close the gap between the two through hard work alone.

"There is no shortage of hard-working monks in this world."

This thought flashed through Liu Yu's mind.

From an ordinary outer sect disciple to the now famous "Old Demon Qingyang".

He asked himself that he had indeed never slacked off, but with his current strength and position, hard work only accounted for a small part.

The greatest contribution is still to the world of Immortal Mansion.

In this world where great power belongs to oneself, hard work does not necessarily mean you will be able to become a "predecessor". In fact, this is just the most basic quality.

Therefore, Liu Yu did not dare to slack off for a day and worked hard to adapt to the world. He did not want to find any Taoist companions and leave himself with weaknesses and concerns.

For him, who is determined to pursue eternal life, Taoist companions are too far away.

Compared to the entire Chu Kingdom, the Nine Kingdoms Alliance, and even Tiannan, the cultivation level in the foundation-building period is really insignificant. Maybe one day he offends a high-level monk and dies.

And for immortal cultivators who pursue their own eternity, is it really necessary to spread the blood of descendants?

Reproduction is an instinct engraved in the blood, but for immortals, they can live forever in the world. Is this instinct really necessary to exist?

Even if an heir is born, he may not be able to pass on his "Tao".

Liu Yu has also heard that it is one of the mainstream views in the world of immortality.

This view says that the soul is the foundation of a person. From this perspective, it seems that blood is not that important?

Is spiritual inheritance, or everyone’s “Tao”, the most important thing?

If this is the case, before you have no further progress and are about to sit down, perhaps it is indeed a good choice to recruit some true disciples to pass on your "Tao".

While waiting patiently, Liu Yu began to think about it.

…

How keen is the monk's spiritual sense?

Perhaps he had stared at it for too long and was sensed by Li Buyu's spiritual sense.

I saw this woman's cold eyes turning, quickly locking her position and looking over. When she saw that it was her junior brother, she calmed down and nodded.

Realizing that he was rude, Liu Yu showed a trace of apology, cupped his hands, and then looked away.

There are more than thirty foundation-building monks in Li Buyu's team, and there are thousands of Qi-refining monks, and their cultivation levels are all above the mid-Qi refining stage.

This kind of strength is enough to be among the best among the twelve Qingfeng teams, but Liu Yu's team can only be regarded as an above-average level.

Not bad though.

Compared with the teams at the end of the crane, none of the tasks can be completed independently and require reinforcements from the sect.

Being able to complete tasks independently is considered excellent.

On the "school field" which is dozens of miles long and wide, there are numerous square formations, large or small.

There were thousands of people at most, hundreds and dozens of people at least, standing obediently at the positions arranged by the sect in advance.

Although there are many monks in the huge school grounds, they are arranged in an orderly manner and do not look chaotic at all.

Most of these monks are in the Qi refining stage, but their origins are diverse.

There are disciples of the sect, vassals of Qingzhou, and monks of the Yan Kingdom who have "returned to righteousness".

Liu Yu estimated that the total number should be close to 30,000.

This is without bringing along the monks who are in the early stage of Qi refining, otherwise there will only be more.

The proportion of monks in the foundation-building stage is much less.

There are 20,000 to 30,000 Qi Refining Stage monks, but there are only about 800 Foundation Establishment monks.

Among them, there are not only monks from the sect, vassals of Qingzhou, and monks from the Yan Kingdom, but also monks from other small countries who followed the orders of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance.

Not all the monks were arranged in a square formation.

There are also "elite teams" with only about a hundred people but relatively high cultivation levels, which can be used to complete some more difficult combat missions.

The monks in these elite teams are at the lowest level of Qi refining, and they are also extremely sophisticated in terms of magic weapons and other aspects.

One team in particular attracted Liu Yu to observe them intently for a long time.

They are all at the Great Perfection of Qi Refining, wearing light red clothes with a lifelike divine bird tattooed on their sleeves.

These hundred monks had solemn faces and neat military postures, which were completely different from the whispers of other square formations, reflecting a good military appearance.

The qi on their bodies are vaguely connected, and they seem to have practiced some kind of combined attack method. Among the square formations, they appear to be the most "special".

Led by a veteran late-stage foundation-building monk, he is capable of exerting strength far beyond his own realm.

"This feeling."

"Could it be the rumored "Tao soldiers"?!"

"The sect has mobilized even this kind of information. It seems that it really attaches great importance to this battle. Is it because of the "Battle of Tianwang Mountain"?"

Liu Yu felt the aura of these juniors, and suddenly felt a chill in her heart, as if she was facing a formidable enemy.

These hundreds of monks are connected with each other, like a whole.

He had a hunch that even if he tried his best, he would not be the opponent of the hundreds of people united, or even far inferior.

Tao soldiers can gather the power of many monks and exert strength far beyond their own, achieving the goal of defeating the strong with the weak.

Its cultivation is extremely difficult, involves all aspects, and is extremely expensive. Generally speaking, it cannot be done except by large sects.

It is rumored that even the lowest level Taoist soldiers can exert strength far beyond the foundation-building realm, enough to frighten monks below the Golden Core stage.

However, the cultivation of "Tao soldiers" does not just require casual training, but requires special "secret methods".

Even if some small and medium-sized forces with good overall strength can afford the cost of cultivating Dao soldiers, it is difficult to cultivate them because they lack the key secret method.

Each type of Taoist soldier cultivates a different secret method. It is firmly held in the hands of the big forces, and it is impossible to leak the secret method.

This is also one of the obvious differences between large forces and small and medium forces.

I heard that the sect had cultivated three Taoist soldiers, but Liu Yu had never seen them despite having heard about them due to his short training time.

"Could this be the "Fire Feather Taoist" among the three Taoist soldiers?"

"Find some time to get to know him better."

After observing for a while, he secretly guessed, then looked away and looked at other phalanxes.

This phalanx of monks can be distinguished not only by elites and non-elites, but also by specialties.

Some phalanxes are sharp in terms of magic weapons and are responsible for specializing in attacks with magic weapons.

But even the "Magical Weapon Phalanx" that specializes in wielding magical weapons can be subdivided into a "Sharp Weapon Phalanx" and a "Blunt Weapon Phalanx" based on the type of magical weapon.

There are also "spell squares" that are good at using spells. According to the spell attributes they are good at, they can also be divided into "ice spell squares", "fire spell squares", "thunder spell squares" and so on.

According to the offensive and defensive nature of spells, they can even be divided into "attack spell phalanx", "defensive spell phalanx" and so on.

The way of fighting between large sects is naturally very different from the fighting between small and medium-sized forces and casual cultivators.

Not only are there more people, but after being organized into various formations and teams, the methods are also much enriched.

Square formations and teams can cooperate with each other to attack in unexpected ways.

It is less easy to be restrained, more difficult to defend, and more able to exert certain advantages.

Compared with small and medium-sized forces that only rely on their numerical superiority to fight independently, this method of warfare is undoubtedly so superior that it is almost incomparable.

If the two meet, they will be destroyed.
