Thinking of this, Wei Lin suddenly noticed something strange. Judging from the reactions of the immortal soldiers, Zhou Chang was just a decoration. The one who could really reassure them was Peng Xiao, the powerful Taiyi Golden Immortal.
However, the actual person in charge of the Ninth War Zone is Zhou Chang.
A person in the middle stage of the Celestial Realm who has reached the end of his cultivation and has no further potential for advancement.
This is not logical!
If Zhou Chang was a genius with potential, it would make sense. The aristocratic family would protect the undeveloped genius and would indeed allocate powerful guards to him, but Zhou Chang was obviously not one of these situations.
Under normal circumstances, a child from an aristocratic family with low cultivation and no hope of advancement like him would be responsible for tedious general affairs.
A person with connections may be responsible for a war zone, but this war zone should match his strength, rather than letting Peng Xiao, a powerful Taiyi Golden Immortal, hold the battle for him.
As the saying goes, good birds choose trees to roost in, so that Zhou Chang can suppress the enemy. Peng Xiao was too careless.
Wei Lin looked at the demon army that was at its peak momentum. With Nightingale there, there was no need to worry. He simply sent a message and asked: "Senior, is there anything special about the Zhou family? Why does Peng Xiao serve as Zhou Chang's bodyguard?"
"You are quite perceptive." After admiring him, Nightingale's eyes became complicated and she finally replied faintly, "Peng Xiao is an ascended immortal."
Wei Lin's thoughts turned quickly, and he understood the implication of her words, and asked: "Are there any ascended immortals among the top experts in Xingque?"
Nightingale didn't answer, and looked at him with more and more admiration, acquiescing to his guess.
Wei Lin was horrified, "Xingque is suppressing the ascended immortals!"
Judging from his life in the Star Palace for just over a year, the combat power of the ascended immortals in the lower realm is generally better than that of the local immortals in the same realm. Strength means resources, and most of them are cautious. How could there not be a single top powerhouse in the years?
He suddenly remembered something. Except for famous families, the power of faith and its related artifacts were only bought and sold at the Immortal Alliance Trading House, and behind the Immortal Alliance Trading House was a famous family.
"It's the power of faith, right?"
Nightingale was surprised. She thought she had a high regard for him, but unexpectedly she underestimated him. He was more sensitive and delicate than she thought.
"Yes, it is the power of faith. The biggest difference between the immortals in Xingque and the monks in the intermediate plane is that the advancement of cultivation requires not only immortal energy, but also merit and belief.
In Xingque, immortal energy is everywhere, it’s just a matter of how much, and the power of faith comes from all living beings.
Among the Ascension Immortals, although there are not many Da Luo Jin Immortals, there are also quite a few. Do you know why only Bai Xi is talked about? "
These days, because he might face pursuit from the Baixi forces, Wei Lin learned about it in detail from Jun Yushan and others. However, their status is low and all they know is public news.
Even so, Bai Xi's resume can be described as legendary. When he ascended, there was no training camp for new recruits. He was dragged onto the battlefield as soon as he left the induction hall. Many people died before they could adapt, but he survived. He is famous for his sharp musical attack.
Five hundred years later, he broke through the Heavenly Immortal Realm and joined the Wolf Smoke Legion. He soon showed his prominence. On the way to escort Miss Song family to Dankao, he was assassinated. Bai Xi fought in a bloody battle and finally protected the Song family fairy boat to reach its destination safely.
After that, several ladies from the Song family secretly fell in love with him, and each launched a fierce pursuit of him. In the end, Song Wanran, his direct descendant, won and became a fairy couple with him.
With this relationship, Bai Xi became even more valued by the Song family, and he rose through the ranks, and now he is the sole Immortal King. According to common parlance, he is a feudal lord.
When people mention him, they always sigh that dowry changes their destiny. On the surface, they are envious of his rich fortune, but in reality they are envious of his ability to be in charge.
Nightingale took a slow breath, "Aside from joking, I believe many people think that it is his ability that has been recognized by the Song family.
However, those who can stand out from the lower world are those who are not amazingly talented, those who can quickly adapt to the war between immortals and demons and survive, and those who are not extremely capable.
But for thousands of years, among the ascended immortals from the lower world, he was the only one in charge and had the right to speak with the local forces in Star Tower.
All exceptions are just because he got a small world by chance and became the way of heaven in that small world. "
"The Way of Heaven?" Wei Lin was a little surprised, but felt that it should be so. As early as in Canglan, he discovered that the Way of Heaven they feared was not a lofty god, but a human being.
It turns out that the so-called way of heaven is the will of a certain immortal.
The small world, the way of heaven, all living beings, the power of faith...
He realized in his heart that under normal circumstances, most creatures respected the way of heaven in that world. In other words, if you became the way of heaven in that world, you would have a stable source of faith and would no longer be controlled by the Immortal Alliance.
He suddenly thought that the transaction between Ah Li and Nan Mi, the reward Nan Mi asked for, was the world, or an intermediate world like the Qingxuan Star Territory.
Wei Lin's heart felt warm and his eyes were warm. Only at this moment did he truly understand how costly and generous it was to save the world once.
Nightingale felt his huge emotional ups and downs. After hearing such a big secret, it was normal for her emotions to fluctuate, but why were her eyes still red?
When she was confused, Wei Lin quickly calmed down his emotions, leaving only the determination and undercurrent of enthusiasm in his eyes.
While they were transmitting the message, the demon army flew closer and joined the original demon soldiers of the 15th Dark Fire Division. Soon, there were only a few hundred demon soldiers wearing dark red armor left in the sky.
In fact, the Bloody Thorns only had three hundred of their demon soldiers, and the remaining tens of thousands were ordinary soldiers, but everyone knew that they were the threat.
At this time, a young man with a heroic appearance and a broad chest jumped up, crossed a group of bloody thorn elites, and came to the front. He looked at Peng Xiao, who was disguised as Nightingale, and said, "He didn't run away, but he was a little brave."
It is the high-level power that determines the outcome of the war. Faced with this inevitable defeat, the high-level monks on both sides of the immortal and demon forces fled whenever they could. Staying would only increase casualties.
Nightingale sneered: "Today, I will show you that I am not only courageous, but also capable!"
She also didn't know Peng Xiao's speech habits, so she carefully adopted the usual speech habits on the battlefield.
"That's not a bad tone!" The young man snorted coldly, and a blood-red broad sword condensed in the air and slashed towards 'Peng Xiao'.
Nightingale raised her hand, and a dazzling yellow shield quickly formed to meet the blood-red broad sword.
The two objects collided, and the heaven and earth roared.
Just the aftermath of the attack caused the airflow to surge and spread. Wei Lin and the high-ranking generals in the ninth theater around him all lit up with various kinds of fairy lights, while the weaker warriors nearby were even provoked to the point of vomiting blood.
