Two monks from the Kongming Realm led him on the way, and they arrived at Dongshi County in the southern part of the Northeast Region in just a few days.
The county town is larger than the county town, and the mixture of monks and humans is more chaotic. It is not like the state town that restricts the entry of innate realm monks, and it is not like the county town where almost only Nascent Soul monks can break through the sky.
The county town is a mixed bag.
It is possible that there is not a single Yingling Kongming cultivator in a city, or it is possible that there are many high-level cultivators hidden in it.
In the city of Dongshi County.
"I'm so exhausted. I've been traveling for so long and I have to carry this brat with me."
Chengku lay unceremoniously on the only bed in the inn room, while Jianchi lay on the long, cushioned mahogany chair. Jiang Yun was the only one who looked around, standing helplessly by the window, with his butt half resting on the table. .
"Senior, aren't we going to perform a mission?" he asked curiously.
"What's the hurry?" Chengku said lazily, "I haven't even received any orders from you. I don't know whether to put you here or throw you away. We'll wait until there is news over there."
Jian Chi hugged the sword with which he had no tacit understanding and closed his eyes to rest. One person and one sword seemed to be disliked by two brothers along the way. Dugubo would scold the sword from time to time, and the sword would struggle from time to time to express dissatisfaction. It looked very weird. .
Facing these two careless guys, he really had no choice but to look out the window and look around.
Speaking of which, there seems to be nothing special about this county, including some customs and humanistic features, which are not much different from Lingchang City in the southeastern and northern regions.
"Dong dong dong"
There was a knock on the door.
"Come in." Xiku looked like he was asleep, but in fact he had been alert to his surroundings and said at this time.
A middle-aged man with an ordinary face walked in. He first saluted Chengku and Dugubo, "I've met these two seniors."
After that, he gave Jiang Yun a friendly smile.
"That guy has already told us to cooperate with your actions. Let's talk about any arrangements." Chengku said.
"Our mission this time will be to attack the County City Jiantian Tower. Snow Lotus and our people will handle other surrounding small forces, so there is nothing to worry about. However, the Snow Lotus masters are all in the western part of the Northeast Region and cannot come to the south, so there is no need to worry about it. Find a way to deal with the patrol in Dongshi County." The middle-aged man said concisely and directly.
One sentence made Jiang Yun feel a thousand waves in his heart.
What is he saying?
Attack the County Jiantian Tower?
Is this something a person can say?
Needless to say, the safety factor of the prefecture city is not to mention. Even the county cities under the county city have formations strong enough to withstand the formations of the monks in the early stage of Kong Ming. Not to mention the county city, its defensive formation is definitely enough to withstand two people in the realm of Kongming.
"The owner of the Jiantian Tower in the county city is a late-stage Yingling monk named Ke Zhenxing. With the formation of the city and the formation of the Jiantian Tower, his combat power is not inferior to the two seniors, so this is one of the difficulties in this operation. .”
"The second difficulty is that there is an old man who came from the Three Great Halls near this county. His name is Ke Tao. This man is in the early stage of Kong Ming's cultivation and is very strong. He is the father of the building owner of Jiantian Building. Once we If he attacks the Jiantian Tower in the county city, he will definitely come to reinforce his son."
"Our goal is not to destroy the Jiantian Tower, but to pretend to attack and involve the owner of the building, Ke Zhenxing, and kill Ke Tao. After all, it is too difficult to break through the Jiantian Tower. He is hiding inside. We will completely break it in a while. No. His father, Ke Tao, killed many of our people during the Three Great Wars. Now he still helps the Three Great Wars to stay in the south. If we get rid of him, if the Wenyou Palace of the Southeast Region invades, they will encounter much less resistance. "
"As for this little brother." The middle-aged man looked at Jiang Yun and said friendly, "You have to follow us nearby to block reinforcements from other sects. When the monks fight in the open plains, the risk factor is very high. If you want If you want to withdraw, you can explain it in advance. But in the future, we will never meet again, and we may even become rivals."
Jiang Yun didn't even react to this, he was still shocked by this person's words.
Is this a war between monks?
Why did the situation change so quickly? Before, it was clearly that the Three Great Wars were trying to find an excuse to attack the Southeast Region. Why did it turn into several major forces attacking the Northeast Region?
And the first move was to kill a building owner and an infant spirit stage, and the low-level monks were going to participate in a big melee, just like fighting on a battlefield in the mortal world... He was inexplicably nervous, but he started to feel a little angry. Woke up.
As for quitting?
Withdraw from der, Liu Yiyi is still in their hands, how can I withdraw? Moreover, Fuling Menting was a force formed by himself and the remnants of Liu Yiyi in his previous life. In disguise, he was his own force. How could he withdraw?
"When will we do it?" Xikku was not surprised at all, as if he was used to performing this kind of task.
Dugubo held the sword in front of him a little irritably and muttered, "I have to let you out again, it's really troublesome."
Speaking of which, Jiang Yun had never seen his sword unsheathed.
"Five days later." The middle-aged man said respectfully.
. . .
"Right ahead."
The middle-aged man took the masked Jiang Yun to a cave in the forest.
"grown ups."
There were four people sitting quietly inside, three men and one woman, each wearing a face scarf or mask to hide their true appearance. They all saluted respectfully when they saw the middle-aged man.
"Yes." The middle-aged man nodded and pointed back at Jiang Yun, "This person will be the fifth person in your operation."
The three men and one woman looked at Jiang Yun curiously and nodded.
"The codenames of the four of them are Brother Zhu, Mage, Stone Man, and Dagger." The middle-aged man pointed at Jiang Yun and said, "His codename is Axe. This operation will be completed with the help of the five of you. Everything will be obeyed by Zhu. Brother’s command.”
"Yes." The five people said respectfully.
"After the mission is over, you come back here and they will take you back." The middle-aged man told Jiang Yun, "If you feel unsafe, you can hide in the city and contact your superiors."
"yes."
The middle-aged man acted vigorously and turned around to leave.
"Hello." The lean man codenamed Brother Zhu was the first to greet Jiang Yun. "We will get to know each other as quickly as possible in the next few days. We will officially carry out the mission in five days. If it is convenient, could you tell me about your strength and strengths?"
"Okay captain." Jiang Yun said, "As the name suggests, my weapon is a hand axe. I am good at close combat, but I also know some simple formations."
He did not intend to use his own formation as the leader, because the formation would expose himself too easily.
He's just here to help, and it's not cost-effective to involve himself in one task. In close combat, he relied on the five-bone elephant ax and the blood soul, which was enough to deal with it. In the worst case, he would just use the talisman.
"It just so happens that I'm good at formations, especially battle formations." Brother Zhu said happily, "We are just short of an attacker. I will have to trouble you then."
"Ah?" Jiang Yun made a confused sound. Such a coincidence?
"I am a mage. I have earth and wood attributes. I can protect you from a distance." The mage seemed a bit tall and his voice was hoarse when he spoke, which did not sound like a real voice.
"I am Stone Man." The man codenamed Stone Man thought for a moment and took off his mask, revealing a younger face with strong muscles and a resolute face. It was easy to guess that this was a close combat player.
"I am a beast master, and I can fight together with my stone-man companions. Mainly because I am so iconic, and my identity is almost as if it is uncovered." He pointed to a pile of stones next to him. Jiang Yun said Only then did he realize that the pile of stones looked like a little stone man sitting on the ground. One of the stones had a face on it, and he smiled at him to show his goodwill.
Jiang Yun returned the favor and became interested in the stone demon cultivator. The stone man's forthright temperament also made him somewhat fond of him.
"I am a dagger." The last girl said coldly, "My weapon is a dagger. I am good at melee assassination and can cooperate with the attacks of you and the stone man."
"Okay, everyone has finished the brief introduction, then I will reiterate the mission details to the new companions."
Brother Zhu said solemnly, "What we are going to attack this time is a county where Yingling monks are stationed. There is one Yingling early-stage director and four Nascent Soul-stage deans in the county. They are loyal to the three great war chambers. Affiliated forces.”
"This..." Jiang Yun questioned, "We can't deal with so many people, right?"
"Of course we can't deal with it." Brother Zhu said with a smile, "Our target is this director of the Yingling Stage. As long as the county takes action, the directors of the Yingling Stage will definitely go to help, and the director of the Nascent Soul Stage will definitely come to help. Situated in the county seat. We will ambush the director on his way to the county seat. The minimum goal of the mission is to delay this infant spirit stage, and the best is to kill him. "
"It is impossible for reinforcements to come from the county town, because there will be other of our personnel in the county town responsible for causing trouble, leaving them Yuanying Qi to take care of themselves."
"You should be well prepared for the next four days. We will take time this afternoon to run in and get familiar with each other's combat habits and combat levels, so that we can better cooperate on the battlefield."
"good."
Because the run-in was in the afternoon, Jiang Yun found a corner to sit cross-legged and straighten out his own affairs, trying to avoid getting too close to other people. Before they were familiar with each other, getting too close would be a danger.
"I must try my best not to expose my identity during this trip." Jiang Yun thought. In fact, he didn't even want to expose the Five-Bone Scroll Elephant Axe. However, apart from the formation, his strongest method is the Five-Bone Scroll. Xiang Ax, think of a way to cover it up when the time comes. After all, it’s just a spiritual weapon. There are so many duplicate spiritual weapons in the world. Who can use this thing to investigate his identity?
Only unique crafts such as the Heavenly Silk Formation and the Four Saints Lightning Formation are likely to be recognized by others.
Besides, if that person can be killed, there is no danger of leaking information.
"We still have to find a way to find a corpse from the late Nascent Soul." He came here in a hurry. He couldn't find the corpse for a while, and the sword soul couldn't be used. Otherwise, it would be a good choice to let the sword soul take action.
"Domains, formations, and shadowless bees cannot be leaked. Basic formations don't count. Anyone can do those things."
"Puppets, talismans, and spiritual weapons can be used. No one can use these things to identify themselves. You can change the appearance of the spiritual weapon, or let the blood soul cover the spiritual weapon with blood to confuse the audience. The blood soul can secretly help me, With him here, most situations are enough to handle.”
"Unless you encounter a difficult situation and use the Shadowless Bee, the formation must be used last."
As the leader in inheritance of formations in the Northwest Territory, his Heavenly Silk Formation and Four Saints Lightning Formation may be much more famous than his name.
"Where is that guy Mei Mingxu..." He put his soul into his beast bag, looked at Mei Mingxu who was being guarded by the shadowless bees in confusion, and asked the queen bee in confusion, "You won't eat him? "
It's so strange that he didn't take care of Mei Mingxu after he threw it into the beast's bag. He thought that all the dregs were eaten by the shadowless bees, but he didn't expect that he was safe and sound.
"Owner."
The queen bee replied, "There's something weird about his sword, and the sword spirit inside is protecting him."
"There is a sword spirit? Why didn't you tell me on the way?" Jiang Yun said speechlessly. All of Mei Mingxu's stored spiritual weapons were confiscated by the palace, leaving only his sword for him. Unexpectedly, this sword is also a treasure with a sword spirit?
"I want to eat it." The queen bee said aggrievedly, "The sword spirit has greatly contributed to the growth of my soul power. I plan to slowly grind it to death."
"Um..." Jiang Yun thought for a while, "Wait a minute, I'll go out and find a place to try."
After saying hello to the four of them, he walked out of the cave, came to the forest, and took out the sword that protected Mei Mingxu.
"Why did you harm me! I helped you get this body, why did you harm me!" The moment he opened the beast bag and took away his sword, Mei Mingxu's voice came out faintly, and Jiang Yun was so frightened that he immediately let the two The Shadowless Bee controlled his mouth not to open.
"Don't eat him, I'll keep it for use." He warned the queen bee not to eat him, and then he prepared the sword in front of him.
