I planted the spiritual roots for my people, and they bestowed upon me a body inscribed with incense

Upon hearing this news, Li Yuan was still somewhat shaken. Fortunately, he had left the white snake at home, otherwise, something might have really happened to his family. As for Prince Qinghe, he married his niece to the Li family but still did nothing about it.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan sneered inwardly.

"Once my cultivation has improved, the first thing I will do is cut off the taxes I pay to Prince Qinghe. As for his claim of preserving the Li family bloodline, I'm afraid he only wants to protect his niece and her bloodline."

Since Prince Qinghe intends to overthrow my family, I naturally cannot be lenient. I will wait until my cultivation is higher and my Li family bloodline is stronger before I immediately cut off your tribute, Ouyang Qinghe, and see what you do then.

After a while, Li Yuan slowly put aside his thoughts and waited for the person who would recruit him back into the team.

Soon, another incomplete squad, along with Li Yuan and Luo Tong, walked in from outside. The squad had one person left, with a Qi Refining Level 7 cultivation, and he seemed to be a squad leader as well.

The three nodded in acknowledgment, which was considered a greeting.

After that, more than a dozen cultivators entered one after another. They were all people who had reorganized their original teams after they were decimated.

As the number of people increased, Commander Si Nantian also came in. Upon seeing everyone, Si Nantian immediately appeared deeply saddened. After comforting everyone, he began to reorganize the squads.

The factory had organized four teams in total. However, to Li Yuan's surprise, Si Nantian did not arrange any new actions for the four teams. Instead, he told Li Yuan and the others to rest well and prepare for the big operation two days later.

As for the rest, nothing was revealed.

Upon hearing this, everyone returned to their assigned tents to rest. Luo Tong then came to Li Yuan's side.

"Brother Li, I have a job for you. Would you dare to come with me and try it out?"

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan immediately became curious.

"What kind of deal? Tell me about it."

Upon hearing this, Luo Tonghao generously took out a tattered oilcloth from his Qiankun bag.

"This place is not far from Green Wave Slope. Do you dare to venture here with me?"

Li Yuan glanced at the map in Luo Tong's hand.

Do you think i is credible?

Upon hearing this, Luo Tong hesitated for a moment before nodding.

"It absolutely exists. This was passed down from my ancestors. If your family falls on hard times, go here. If used properly, it can bring prosperity to your family for a hundred years."

Li Yuan looked at it and indeed it was written that way. Also, the material of the animal skin felt familiar to Li Yuan. Upon closer inspection, he realized that it was actually the skin of a black beast. Moreover, the marks left on it indicated that the black beast skin was definitely not from a black beast at the Qi Refining stage.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan nodded slowly.

"Okay, but there probably isn't enough time right now."

Luo Tong waved his hand, saying, "We'll talk about it when we get back. Just the two of us will go, and we'll divide the treasure equally. We'll also swear a blood oath."

Upon hearing this, Li Yuan clasped his hands in a fist salute.

"Thank you, Brother Luo."

After discussing for a while, the two returned to their respective residences. Li Yuan's residence was a small wooden hut, simply furnished. If he needed anything, he could simply ask the soldiers outside.

After entering the wooden house, Li Yuan began to regulate his breathing and calm his mind. He arrived at the battlefield in a daze and almost died. Ever since he came to the war city, Li Yuan had been under the control of others. However, the people around him were doing the same thing, and Li Yuan had no way to break free.

After a while, Li Yuan finally emptied his mind and entered a meditative state.

Time flew by, and two days later, Li Yuan's mental state reached its peak, and the magic power in his dantian was also abundant. After leaving his residence, Li Yuan quickly arrived at the camp.

Compared to before, everyone's mental state was obviously much better.

Si Nantian, who was at the very front, looked at the crowd.

"Fellow Daoists, your previous experiences have given you an opportunity for revenge. Today, I, Si Nantian, will give you that chance. Tonight, I will personally lead a team to the Great Wei Dynasty's territory and slaughter a dozen or so cultivators before returning."

"Fellow Daoists, rest assured, this group of cultivators has just come from the battlefield in the Kingdom of Mosa, and their condition is incomparable to yours."

"Do you want these free war merits or not?"

Upon hearing this, some people were as excited as if they had been injected with chicken blood, and they echoed the sentiment. However, there were still a few people who did not want to participate in the war, such as Li Yuan and Luo Tong.

However, with this military order issued, if he did not fight, Si Nantian could kill him right now, and the Li family behind him would also suffer.

The two could only grit their teeth and agree.

Seeing the high spirits of the crowd, Si Nantian nodded.

They then immediately began planning the ambush route.

"The main purpose of this battle is to intercept the retreating cultivators of the Great Wei Dynasty, so we must travel as fast as possible to Longxia Pass, the border between the Mosa Kingdom and the Great Wei Dynasty."

"This Longxia Pass is also a unique landform. Both sides are cliffs thousands of meters high. Miasma and poisonous gas have accumulated in the air above the pass for many years, causing thick black smoke to fill the air for hundreds of miles above the cliffs. If this poisonous smoke enters the human body, it will inevitably cause the meridians to break and even damage the dantian."

Only at the cliff junction, its unique geographical location prevented the pervasive anger from reaching this place.

Si Nantian discovered this location by chance, and ambushing the people of the Great Wei Dynasty who wanted to return from here would be almost foolproof.

After explaining the route to everyone, Si Nantian waved his hand, and two white jade flying ships appeared before them.

"Everyone, this is the White Dragon Boat of my Si family, the most precious magical artifact of my Si family. Fellow Daoists, please come aboard."

After saying that, Si Nantian was the first to jump onto the white boat-shaped magical artifact.

Li Yuan and Luo Tong followed suit and jumped up as well.

The two men knew Li Yuan's nature very well. If they encountered an insurmountable danger, Li Yuan would definitely run away first. If it was a fight between many and few, Li Yuan would still be happy to take advantage of the situation.

The speed of this flying artifact was indeed as good as its reputation. It was much faster than driving the artifact themselves. In just two days, the group arrived at the border between the Mosa Kingdom and the Great Wei Dynasty in the north of Green Wave Slope.

The cultivators of the Great Wei Dynasty who escaped from the dense forest of Green Wave Slope are still hiding in the forest, evading the pursuit of the cultivators of the Mosa Kingdom. When these cultivators reach this checkpoint, that will be the time for Li Yuan and his group to make their move.

Since arriving at this checkpoint, Si Nantian has set up several formations around the area to conceal everyone's presence, including a killing formation designed to deal with cultivators from the Great Wei Dynasty.

After three whole days of waiting at the pass, a cultivator from the Great Wei Dynasty finally returned to the border of the Great Wei Dynasty from Green Wave Slope.

This person had the cultivation level of the seventh level of Qi Refining, but his aura was weak, and his current combat power was far from reaching the seventh level of Qi Refining. After observing for a while, he took out a communication jade pendant, and after a while, a dozen or so cultivators from the Great Wei Dynasty appeared behind him one after another.

After observing for a while, Si Nantian gave a signal to the crowd, and the original four teams surrounded them from four directions outside the pass.

The person trapped in the Zhou family was none other than Zhou Gang, a prince of the Great Wei Dynasty.

"Zhou Gang, who was in the center, sensed his surroundings and finally noticed something was wrong. He then quickly ordered his men to stop."

"Which fellow Daoist is here? I am Zhou Gang, a prince of the Great Wei Dynasty. Please do us a favor and do not make things difficult for us."

Upon hearing this, Si Nantian was overjoyed.

"I thought this news would only stop some small fry from escaping, but I didn't expect to catch a prince."

Having already been discovered, Si Nantian made no attempt to conceal it, slowly revealing himself to Zhou Gang.
