In the training room, the violent immortal spiritual energy seemed to form a storm, and the Nine Palaces Spirit Gathering Formation was operating at full speed. The mid-grade immortal crystals that were originally thrown aside decreased at a speed visible to the naked eye, and finally turned into powder and dissipated in the air.
Cheng Ling's promotion to the Mysterious Immortal Realm required more immortal spiritual power, and it took three days to absorb it before he was completely stable. The concentration of fairy spiritual energy in the training room has dropped a lot, because it is absorbed too quickly and there is no time to replenish it.
Opening his eyes, two dragon-like airflows spurted out from his nose. He clenched his fists and felt the powerful strength contained in his body. From the Nine Star Virtual Immortal Realm to the Mysterious Immortal Realm, they may not seem to be much different, but their strength is vastly different.
Not to mention a monk with multiple spiritual roots like Cheng Ling, whose own fairy spiritual energy can become many times stronger every time he advances to a higher level. Based on his current strength, if he meets those monks from the Nine-Star Void Immortal Realm, he believes that he can defeat them all with just one spell.
"I finally advanced. I don't know how much time has passed. It's time to go out and see the progress of the Hidden Thunder Army."
After muttering a few words softly, he stood up and Shi Shiran walked out of the training room and walked towards the tent.
When I arrived at the edge of my tent, I could hear the sound of killings coming from the mountain behind from far away, and I nodded secretly in my heart. Fangs can indeed be entrusted with big things. Although he is gone, training has not been abandoned. After such a long time, everyone must have made great progress.
Walking towards the back mountain in the direction of the sound, I soon saw more than a thousand monks on the mountain, divided into several piles, each of them training selflessly. There are two teams fighting each other, some lurking and hiding, and some sitting cross-legged on the ground meditating to temper their soul strength!
A smile appeared at the corner of Cheng Ling's mouth. His consciousness swept over and he soon found the traces of Fang Ya and others. He flashed and quickly came to the side of these people.
Fangya keenly sensed someone approaching, and when the figure appeared, he shouted happily: "Cheng Ling, you are finally out of seclusion! Yes, your cultivation has finally been promoted to the Mysterious Immortal Realm, congratulations!"
Zhang Haohui, Yu Zixian, Yan Wushuang, and Zhao Hong hurriedly bowed and saluted, shouting: "I've seen Dutong!"
Cheng Ling laughed, his eyes flashed, and he looked at a few people and said, "Yes, everyone has worked hard during this period. I didn't expect that you have all advanced to the Xuanxian realm, with all the fangs. I wonder what realm you are now?"
Fangya laughed and said: "Thanks to you, I was promoted to the Nine-Star Xuanxian Realm a month ago. All my colleagues felt worthless for me, saying that with my current cultivation level, I should at least be a commander. Now I am just a The commander-in-chief can only lead a thousand people."
"How do they know that as long as they stay with Brother Cheng, they won't be happy even if they are replaced by my general!"
The other four people agreed deeply and looked at Cheng Ling with grateful eyes!
Over the past year or so, if it weren't for the large amount of pills provided by Cheng Ling, their cultivation would not have improved so quickly. Not only that, almost every monk in the Hidden Thunder Army has been greatly improved, and more than a dozen have also been promoted to the Mysterious Immortal Realm.
Among thousands of people, no team has such strength. Others may not know all this, but as Cheng Ling's direct descendants, of course they know it.
Hearing Fang's bold words, Cheng Ling smiled slightly and said calmly: "Fang is the leader, keep a low profile, we must keep a low profile! You know, being low-key is the most awesome way to show off, isn't it, haha~!"
Seeing that everyone had made great progress, Cheng Ling relaxed and started joking with them. After a while of fussing, he asked again: "How long have I been in seclusion?"
"One year!"
"Huh?" In one year, he was promoted from the Eight-Star Virtual Immortal Realm to the Mysterious Immortal Realm, and the speed was not too slow. But he himself knows how many resources are consumed. The same resources can provide several Eight-Star Virtual Immortal Realm disciples to be promoted to the Mysterious Immortal Realm.
After pondering for a while, he asked again: "After one year, how is the situation on the front line? Is the demon clan ready to make a comeback?"
Fangya suddenly woke up and said hurriedly: "By the way, Mr. Zhuge sent a message a few months ago, asking you to go to his place immediately after you leave seclusion."
"Do you know anything?"
"I don't know, but I think it's probably related to the demon clan's re-invasion."
"Tell me about the specific situation?"
"Since our battle with the Monster Clan, in the past year or so, although the two sides have not had any major wars, small-scale conflicts have continued. Just half a year ago, the Monster Clan continued to increase its troops, and Tianfu Star increased its number. Thirty thousand, not only that, they also invaded other defensive planets outside the base camp at the same time."
"Tianbi Star, Tianyuan Star, Tiantian Star, Tianji Star, Tianjiu Star, Tianchu Star and other planets together add at least hundreds of thousands of demon clans. Ren Sect Master tried his best to deal with it, and at the same time, a message for help was sent."
"Mr. Zhuge made a prompt decision and sent 50,000 professional soldiers to Tianfu Star for support. He also sent a message to the Star Lord's Mansion, hoping that the corresponding monks would be sent there. Unfortunately, after several months, we still haven't received any response."
Cheng Ling was stunned and asked: "So there are tens of thousands of monks in the base camp heading to the front line. Why haven't the Hidden Thunder Army been allowed to fight?"
"I don't know. In addition to the 80,000 professional sergeants who stayed behind, the remaining 10,000 monks were also dispatched. Only our Hidden Thunder Army has not received any orders."
Cheng Ling was confused. What was the old man thinking? Isn't it because you are worried about being in seclusion and can't be disturbed? But thinking about it, it's impossible. I'm just a Tutong at best, so how can I have such a heavy weight for the other party to pay attention to.
I couldn't think of a reason, so I just asked the old man directly. Immediately, he gave Fan Ya a few words to prepare for battle, and then headed towards the command hall!
When I came to the main hall, I reported my name, and the guard sergeant immediately let me go. When I walked in, I saw the old man standing in front of the sand table, his brows furrowed, looking like he was thinking hard.
Cheng Ling took a step forward, cupped his hands and said, "Senior, are you looking for me?"
The old man slowly raised his head, his consciousness swept over his body, and he said with satisfaction: "Yes, you have finally advanced to the Mysterious Immortal Realm, and I am worthy of keeping you here."
Cheng Ling was stunned and thought to himself: What do you mean? Is it really because he wants to break through the realm and not let the Hidden Thunder Army be dispatched? This kindness comes from a strange place!
For a moment, I couldn't figure out the old man's intention, so I could only keep silent.
Mr. Zhuge smiled slightly and said, "Come! Let's take a look at the situation on the battlefield, and then tell us what you think."
Cheng Ling immediately walked to the sand table and saw that it looked like an illusory universe inside. The stars shine one by one, as if you are in the starry sky, very beautiful.
But soon, his eyes broke away from the beautiful scenery, and only the stars remained in his eyes.
Mr. Zhuge nodded secretly and said: "Yes, it only takes a few breaths to restore clarity in the star chart. Your soul is really strong."
"Star map? What the hell is that!"
"We'll talk about this later. I'd better introduce you to the current battle situation first!"
"Senior, please tell me!"
"As you can see, the star map records all the planets in the four star regions. You see, the red area shown in the middle is the territory of the demon clan, and those on the periphery that emit colorful light are the life stars occupied by our human race."
Cheng Ling looked carefully and saw a large red area in the middle, and on the periphery, blue, green, purple, red and other halos flashed from time to time, which were colorful and beautiful.
It's just that the shape of the red area is very irregular. Except for the central part, it extends in the other four directions, and some even form a straight line.
Mr. Zhuge pointed his finger and continued: "The position we are in now is here, and the Tianfu star is here, followed by the Tianchu star, the Tianbi star, the Tianjiu star, the Tianyuan star, the Tianji star and so on."
As he clicked with two fingers, the stars lit up. Cheng Ling saw the red patch of base camp approaching the central area, and six planets including Tianfu Star and Tianchu Star were in a semi-surrounding state, protecting the base camp.
"According to the latest situation reported from the front, the demon clan on Tianfu Star has increased to 200,000, and each of the remaining six stars has increased to 30,000. Overall, the number of demon clan deployed this time has reached almost 400,000."
"Such a powerful military invasion cannot be stopped by our sergeants alone. There were originally 300,000 standing troops in the base camp, but they fought several times and lost at least 70,000."
"One hundred thousand troops are confronting the monsters on Tianfu Planet, and another 120,000 troops are stationed on the other six planets. But everywhere, we are at a disadvantage. Cheng Ling, can you tell us how to break this situation?"
Cheng Ling smiled bitterly and said, "Old man, you think too highly of me!"
"Haha, little friend, there is no need to belittle yourself. I have been paying attention to you since the first time you got the starry sky disk from me. Not only in the process of completing the mission, but also when you faced the battlefield for the first time, your dexterity, wisdom, and strategy impressed me. What a pleasant surprise.”
"The Human Alliance is in a critical moment right now, and we need people like you to step forward and save the Human Race from the fire!"
Cheng Ling smiled helplessly. She had always told herself to keep a low profile. Unexpectedly, the old man discovered the light in her body! Hey, you are such a good person, but you are really helpless!
After pondering for a while, seeing that the old man was sincere, he decided to help him. He immediately asked: "I heard from Fangya that the senior has sent a request for help to the Star Lord Mansion. I don't know what the specific situation is?"
Mr. Zhuge sighed: "Yes, I did report the situation here to the Star Lord, and the Star Lord also promised to send reinforcements as soon as possible. But I can't guarantee the time. The number of monsters in front of me is already twice that of us. If an attack is launched at the same time, there is no certainty that the base camp will fall before reinforcements arrive!"
Cheng Ling frowned and asked, "The reinforcements from the Star Lord's Mansion are so delayed?"
"The Star Lord's Mansion is not as powerful as you think. Moreover, the situation at hand affects the entire human alliance. Another point is that the base camp we are in is only a defensive front against the monsters. There are also defense lines in other places!"
