However, the earthquake, caused by human intervention, directly affected dozens of towns and cities within a radius of hundreds of miles.
This was something Cui Xia never dared to even imagine before.
Human resources are indeed sometimes limited.
The ultimate limit, however, seems to no longer be what it once was.
Humans have already gained the power to move mountains and fill seas!
Fulfilling duties and acquiring rights—it all sounds fair.
But Cui Xia was still hesitant.
The Feather Guard's bondage, an increasingly dangerous world, and a mission beyond their control.
No matter what choice he makes, it seems that it is no longer what he wants.
"Uncle, please have mercy and give me some food."
A little girl, about ten years old, dressed in rags and covered in wounds, lay listlessly by the roadside, pleading with Cui Xia in a barely audible voice.
As Cui Xia looked at the little girl, the image that came to mind was herself at the age of ten.
They were both around the same age and seemed to be in similar circumstances.
"Where are the parents?"
"died."
"Where are the other family members?"
"All dead."
Cui Xia stopped checking her injuries immediately.
Ordinary people are powerless to resist such a thing.
Even as Bai Yu, he still found it difficult to cope.
Continuing to choose to slack off means handing your fate over to others.
Just like this little girl, they have no ability to resist.
"If there were a place where you could have enough to eat and wear, but it would come at a great cost..."
"I want to go!"
The little girl looked at Cui Xia with determination. She raised her hand, wanting to grab the hem of Cui Xia's clothes, but then let go.
Cui Xia sighed inwardly.
He must have been in a similar situation back then, right?
The members of the Feather Guard mainly come from orphans from various places.
Only after undergoing systematic training will they be assigned to different regions.
Most of the guards currently active in refugee-populated areas are doing similar things.
Cui Xia bent down and picked up the little girl.
The little guy was a bit scared, but dared not move.
Cui Xia didn't explain much, but silently led the person away.
Instead of sending the child to the Feather Guard's stronghold, Cui Xia rented a house, hired an old woman, and took care of the little guy.
At the same time, the best doctors were summoned to treat his injuries.
If there were other options, Cui Xia didn't want her to follow the same path as herself.
Three days passed quickly.
The little guy's injury is showing signs of improvement.
Cui Xia asked her local colleagues to help take care of the baby.
He appeared before Su Chen just before the deadline.
If you want to lie down and relax, you need to have the ability to choose!
.....
"The Feather Guards have some promising talents."
Several should be able to be produced quickly in the short term.
Su Chen selected a large number of people at once, many of whom seemed to have considerable potential.
If three or five of them are trained, they will be able to master the techniques.
He can then be freed.
When that time comes, it won't be as easy for the demonic cultivators of Nanlang to cross the border again.
Moreover, this group of people is like a seed.
With this group of people in the Imperial Guard, they will naturally be able to train more people in the future.
Su Chen found a place where, in addition to guiding them to absorb Qi each day, he also roughly categorized the techniques and explained them one by one.
After all, no one can be a jack-of-all-trades; focusing on one thing is the fastest way to make progress.
Based on a scaled-down version of Lonely Wild Goose, and with the ever-increasing spiritual energy of heaven and earth.
Within three days, some people successfully absorbed the Qi.
At the same time, in terms of the theory of magic, these people mastered it faster than Su Chen had expected.
“For all the Mo Yu, a carefully selected spell manual has been prepared for them.”
"We can just have them pass it on to each other when the time comes."
Mo Yu is basically a Grandmaster, and the few who are on the verge of breaking through.
They only need to change their mindset, and they will naturally be able to quickly draw qi into their bodies.
As for magic, it shouldn't be a problem for them either.
"At this rate, within half a month, there should be people who have a basic grasp of the techniques."
Su Chen was writing and drawing on the table, completely unaware that Hua Jingyun was looking at him with gentle eyes.
Su Chen resumed his role as a mentor, although he wasn't teaching her, it gave Hua Jingyun a sense of reliving the past.
That seems to be how her master taught her back then.
Cui Xia, who had just stepped across the threshold, stopped in her tracks upon seeing the strange scene before her.
Cui Xia was right next to Hua Jingyun when she took the tower.
Her strength even made Jin Bufan wary.
When they surrounded Hua Jingyun, there were several Mo Yu.
Such a powerful being would actually stand silently beside Su Chen, like a well-behaved maid.
Looking back, it seems there have been many similar scenes over the past few days.
The strong serve willingly, and the weak accept it peacefully.
Those two are definitely having an affair!
Cui Xia waited in the same spot for a long time. Hua Jingyun must have known he was coming, but Hua Jingyun never reminded Su Chen.
When Su Chen looked up, an incense stick had already burned.
"Is there a problem?"
"I have absolutely no idea how to absorb Qi."
Others already had a foundation in the techniques, so it wasn't as difficult for them to learn.
Cui Xia had never encountered anything like this before, and absorbing Qi was especially difficult for him.
However, he learned magic techniques faster than others.
"There's a problem with the meridians, but it will be fine once they're cleared."
Su Chen briefly examined Cui Xia's body; he wasn't completely oblivious to the concept of Qi absorption.
Instead, there was absolutely no positive feedback from beginning to end.
The spiritual energy absorbed into the body cannot penetrate further due to the obstruction of the meridians and dissipates directly.
This led Cui Xia to believe that she had never succeeded.
Su Chen used a few tricks to help Cui Xia open up her meridians.
Judging from the progress, Cui Xia is probably the fastest among these people.
A few more days.
News came from the capital that all the talented individuals previously received had been sent to Xichen territory.
The army trapped inside Xichen continued to struggle.
The situation should improve somewhat after this group of people arrives to provide support.
Jiang Li had been on guard against an invasion from the North, but no matter what method she used, she could not obtain information about the North's actions.
It was as if Balth had been dealt a blow after his defeat in the capital.
Even though the northern region had fallen silent, Jiang Li dared not relax in the slightest.
The situation of this group of guards was roughly as Su Chen had predicted.
People began to successfully absorb the Qi.
Cui Xia was also among those who succeeded.
Furthermore, his rate of progress was the fastest among all of them.
Not only was his Qi absorption stable and efficient, but he also successfully cast a spell once.
Hua Jingyun would occasionally step in and explain things about demonic cultivation to these people.
The focus should be on understanding the target; as for becoming a demonic cultivator, even Hua Jingyun himself would not recommend it.
