The Mortal's Path to Immortality
Chapter 256 Division of Hongzhou's Defense Line
The so-called natural moat is the natural dividing line between states, like an uncrossable chasm that separates the states.
The natural moat between Hongzhou and Qingzhou sinks slightly by dozens of meters, like a canyon that is deep and has no edge.
At first glance, there is only a desolate area, with a faint gray death aura lingering in it. The deeper you go, the thicker the death aura becomes, and it is difficult for people to see the scene in the depths.
This place forms a sharp contrast with Hongzhou itself, as if it is the junction of two worlds.
These death auras are not ordinary auras, but contain deadly dangers.
Once a mortal is contaminated with these death auras, he will die immediately. Therefore, mortals will never get close to the natural moat and are full of awe for this area.
Even if a cultivator wants to step into the natural chasm, he must always use his own magic power to expel the dead air invading his body.
Otherwise, once the dead air erodes the body, the cultivator will also be in trouble.
Near the natural chasm, you can clearly see the cultivators of Hongzhou constantly patrolling.
They all have a uniform purple armband hanging on their arms, with the words "demon extermination" written on it.
The Hongzhou Demon Extermination Alliance is the name of the organization of the united front against the demons in Hongzhou.
They patrol near the natural chasm with the shortest distance between Hongqing and Qingzhou to prevent all demons from invading Hongzhou.
Several people got off the boat-shaped magic weapon, and Gongzi Fusheng walked towards several patrolling cultivators.
"Daoyou, I am Young Master Fusheng, and I am here with several companions for the first time. Where should I report?"
The patrolling monks were all at the peak of the ninth level of Qi Refining. They had always thought highly of Young Master Fusheng.
After hearing Young Master Fusheng's surname, their expressions changed immediately.
"So you are a monk from the Young Master's family. The children of the Young Master's family are indeed very righteous."
"For the first report, you need to go to the headquarters of the Demon-Slaying Alliance. It is more than 300 miles south along the natural moat." The patrolling monk said.
"Thank you for letting me know." Young Master Fusheng thanked him.
"You are welcome. Everything is for us to fight against the demons and defend our homeland."
"I will go on patrol first." The patrolling monk left.
Young Master Fusheng turned around and summoned the boat-shaped magic weapon again: "It seems that we have to continue flying for a while."
Returning to the boat-shaped magic weapon, Young Master Fusheng said: "I heard that the total length of this section of the natural moat defense line is about ten miles, which is the shortest area of the Hongqing natural moat."
"I only know the approximate location of this area. I didn't find out the location of the Demon-Slaying Alliance headquarters in advance. Sorry."
The tall cultivator said: "It's okay, but I heard that in the Demon-Slaying Alliance, Qi Refining cultivators will carry out activities in teams of ten. At this time, the five of us must be in a team."
Young Master Fusheng nodded: "Of course, I will ask the higher-ups. With the tacit understanding between us, if we break up and regroup, it will be a complete waste of combat power."
As he spoke, a few hours later, the headquarters of the Demon-Slaying Alliance arrived.
This is a giant tower built about half a year ago.
As its name suggests, this tower reaches the sky, and its exact height can be seen clearly.
It is said that the top of the tower can give a panoramic view of the defense line in the area, and it is also equipped with instruments such as long-distance observation and sensing to prevent any possibility of the demons sneaking in.
Cao Rui is now a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage, so it is natural for him to go to the top of the tower.
In front of the base of the tower, there is a special person responsible for registering the cultivators who come to participate in the Demon-Slaying Alliance.
There are different windows for different cultivation realms.
In Hongzhou, the influence of the Demon-Slaying Alliance is getting bigger and bigger, and there are endless cultivators who come to participate in the Demon-Slaying War every day.
Cao Rui and the other five people asked Gongzi Fusheng to register on their behalf.
According to the regulations, they should be separated and assigned to different teams, but due to the special surname of Gongzi Fusheng, they were "lucky" to be assigned to the same team under Gongzi Fusheng's special arrangement.
Each Qi Refining Team consists of ten members, and they can move freely in the area they are responsible for.
As long as they can successfully kill the demons and demonized monks and cut off their heads, they can take them to the Tongtian Tower in exchange for various rewards, including elixirs, spiritual weapons, and magic tools.
Such a generous reward undoubtedly attracted many monks to join the Demon Killing Alliance.
After completing the registration, Cao Rui and others were assigned to a team of ten.
Four of the new members in this team are casual cultivators, and one is from a small sect.
Although the team did not formally appoint a captain, with Gongzi Fusheng's sociable personality and his unique surname background, he quickly won the recognition of other team members and became the default leader of the team.
After the ten people received their armbands, they went to the area they were responsible for together to report to the foundation-building monks there.
For example, the natural moat defense line of Hongzhou can be generally divided into three parts: "front hunting area", "central confrontation area" and "back leakage inspection area".
The front hunting area is located deep in the natural moat, and only monks above the Jindan level can enter.
The task here is to actively hunt the advancing demon monks.
The central confrontation area is where most of the demon army of the brigade appears. Due to the large number of demons, they cannot hunt in the hunting area, and can only rely on large troops for group battles.
This area is the core of the Demon-Slaying Alliance, where a large number of foundation-building, golden elixir and Nascent Soul cultivators are concentrated. They are an important force in resisting the invasion of demons.
The last area is the back leak detection area, which is also the place where Cao Rui and others are.
This area is divided into levels. The top level is led by a Yuanying cultivator, with ten Jindan cultivators below him, and a hundred foundation-building cultivators below him.
Cao Rui's ten-man team belongs to the sphere of influence led by a foundation-building cultivator. There are at least five such ten-man teams in the area under the responsibility of each foundation-building cultivator.
This area is located at the periphery of the natural chasm. The concentration of dead air here is still within the tolerable range for Qi-refining cultivators.
Normally, magic tools can be used to resist the invasion of dead air.
Occasionally, if they are slightly invaded by dead air, they only need to leave the natural chasm once every ten days or so, and they can safely expel the fine dead air in their bodies.
And their main purpose of coming here is naturally to eliminate the demons that pass through the first two areas.
Most of these demons are not strong.
The battle on the front line was fierce, with a large number of low-level demonized humans and demonized monks rushing in, leaving them no time to take care of the rear, so they left these demons to the many Qi Refining monks in the rear to deal with.
Usually, demons above the level of Demon Spirit were killed early in the first two areas.
The front line knew the comprehensive strength of this area, and powerful demons rarely left the rear inspection area, so this place was relatively safe.
