Linggen Civil Engineering only wants to build roads

"Liefengfang," Fang Chen's consciousness probed into the sergeant's tag, looking at the destination of his team on the map.

This sergeant's tag sounds like a token indicating identity.

In reality, it is a treasure that combines communication, maps, and instructions. For example, the specific details of exchanging military merits can be read in the sergeant's token, just like a jade slip, which is extremely convenient.

Similarly, a map is included.

On the map, Tianbi Sect is in the east, and Tianyou Sect is in the west.

Once outside the fortress, the cultivators of the Tianbi Sect spread out like a large net, slowly heading west.

The destination of the Tiger Tiger Army was the Gale Wind Market, which was to their northwest. The elite disciples, led by Foundation Establishment cultivators, attacked the market, which was what Army A and Army B did. After capturing it, they reaped a considerable reward.

Ding Jun, like Fang Chen, could only attack small strongholds, namely the Spirit Eye Lands guarded by late-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

Fang Chen wasn't particularly discouraged by this.

The less you harvest, the less danger you face.

Along the way, Fang Chen witnessed many things, all of which were cultivators from other armies attacking fortifications.

Three or five teams gathered in front of the protective formation of the immortal clan under the Tianyou Sect and took turns attacking. They also encountered protective formations that had already been breached. The spiritual power of the surrendered cultivators was sealed, and they were taken away in a string. The final result should be that they were sold into slavery.

If they are cultivators from a sect, there is still hope of being ransomed if they are captured.

However, for these minor immortal cultivators, whose entire families have been wiped out, there is absolutely no hope left.

Some minor immortals put up a fierce resistance, but unfortunately, they were eventually overrun, and all the cultivators in the entire clan were slaughtered.

Fang Chen's younger disciples felt sorry for him, but he remained unmoved.

The recruited rogue cultivators, including Changmei, paid no attention to any of this. They were only focused on the nearby spiritual strongholds that had been destroyed, guessing how much spiritual material and treasure the enemy might have gained, as well as the most precious military merits.

"Hey, 11th Battalion, come over here!"

There's a large stronghold that's short of cultivators; we've already assembled five teams.

Two more teams are coming. With more people, they'll break through the formation faster. There are even immortals at the peak of Qi Refining inside, and a first-tier spiritual vein; the gains will definitely be substantial.

Halfway there, Fang Chen received this message through his sergeant's tag.

The sergeant's badge is linked to one's own aura and serves as a means of location tracking and communication; however, the higher the rank, the wider the range of communication.

Fang Chen decisively declined the invitation.

Just kidding, I just said we couldn't gather, and in the blink of an eye you've gathered five whole teams, you're really not afraid of death.

To Fang Chen's surprise, the team eventually formed eight squads, including a squad led by a squad leader in the late stage of Qi Refining and a squad of thirty captains led by a Qi Refining Perfection expert.

A full hundred cultivators took turns fighting.

They finally broke through the great formation and looted all the immortals inside.

Although each person didn't receive much military merit due to the large number of people, they still received a lot of spoils of war. It seems that some cultivators even discovered top-grade spiritual materials among them, so they can be considered to have made a fortune.

Of course, Fang Chen heard all this information from Changmei and the others.

After several days of continuous travel, Fang Chen and his group finally arrived in the territory of Liefengfang.

Upon arriving here, Fang Chen received a message from his military supervisor, Shen Wen.

"You have two days to arrive at Dreamstone Mountain. Anyone who fails to do so will be subject to military law!"

"Dreamstone Mountain?" Fang Chen told everyone to rest, while he looked at the map and found that the mountain was exactly 800 miles away from where he was now. Two days was probably too short to get there. He just hoped that nothing would go wrong on the way.

Half an hour later, the group set off again.

The apprentices were suffering terribly.

Long Eyebrows chuckled and said, "This is just the beginning. Almost half of the time in the sect war is spent traveling. Before, we could take flying boats, but now we have to run on foot."

"Master, when will we be able to have a flying artifact?" Xu Qian'er couldn't help but ask.

"Then you'll have to work hard to earn military merits," Fang Chen replied with a smile.

"My skills are not enough; I still need to rely on my master."

Flying magical artifacts are indeed precious, and only sect cultivators are issued them. It is unexpected that such a symbolic treasure would also be put up by the sect.

"Haha, Xiaoqian, I'm afraid even if you have a flying artifact, you might not be able to ride it. After all, you're more likely to be targeted by Foundation Establishment cultivators when you're flying in the sky," the long-browed man said with a smile, stroking his beard.

"Oh, okay? Then I won't sit down."

Thinking of what they told him when he entered the military camp, and his master's instructions.

This sect war was conducted with extreme caution.

Another day passed, and the young apprentice Wu Feng suddenly came to report, "Master, there is a nest of lightning scorpions blocking the road in the nameless forest ahead, and there are quite a few of them."

"A lightning scorpion?" Fang Chen frowned upon hearing this. "Can we take a detour?"

Encountering monsters is quite a headache, but with military orders in place, it's best to avoid them if possible.

Unfortunately, things didn't go according to Fang Chen's wishes. Wu Feng said, "I looked around, and it's all the territory of the Lightning Scorpion. It would be a long way to get around it, and I'm afraid we won't have enough time."

Clearly, they were also aware of the military order to arrive at Mengshi Mountain in two days.

"How strong is this lightning scorpion?"

Since we can't avoid it, let's face it head-on. It's a good opportunity to test our team's new tactics.

"They are not very strong; most of them are low-level demonic beasts, with a few mid-level demonic beasts mixed in."

Upon hearing this, Fang Chen felt relieved.

It seems that it is not a threatening monster, and my disciples can handle it.

"Alright, then you guys give it a try."

"Yes," Wu Feng said, rubbing his hands together eagerly. He had been traveling every day for a while and was feeling really bored, so he had to ask his master for a mission to clear the way. This time, he would finally be able to go head-to-head with the monsters.

The group of eleven headed towards the opposite mountain.

Before long, the swarm of lightning scorpions spotted the uninvited guests, hissing as they surrounded them, their tails crackling with blue lightning.

If you were to encounter it, you'd probably be numb for half a day.

The scorpion swarm was extremely aggressive, and with their numerical advantage, they were not afraid of Fang Chen and his group at all.

Fang Chen did not move forward, but stopped and retreated behind the disciples, as did the three rogue cultivators, Fu Yunzi, Changmei, Huang Yunjian, and Qinglan.

Unlike ordinary cultivators who cast protective spells on themselves and then manipulate magical artifacts to fight, this is different.

Fang Chen's seven disciples, led by Wu Feng, stood in a row, facing the dozens of lightning scorpions that were attacking.

"Ready," Wu Feng commanded, and all the cultivators took out their talismans.

They were actually glittering, low-level talismans, the very same low-level Golden Knife Talisman that Fang Chen had used at the beginning.

"put!"

The disciples simultaneously activated their spiritual power, and instantly the golden talismans in their hands transformed into golden blades, shooting towards the dense swarm of scorpions. At this moment, the approaching lightning scorpions had already released the purple electric current from their tails.

However, some of the lightning scorpions at the rear had not yet seen the cultivators on the other side.

Chi Chi!

The electric current spell and the golden sword clashed; both were rudimentary spells, and neither could gain the upper hand, but rather they wore each other down.

In comparison, the Thunder Scorpion's side was actually better, as several of their spells were not blocked and shot straight towards the group.
