Starting with a useless yellow dog, he swept through the immortal realm.
Chapter 89, Squad 7
In the end, it was the guardian general Gu Song who, by sacrificing his own minor realm, created a light barrier to shield everyone on the gate from the blood sun. Only then did the situation gradually improve.
As a result, Gu Song fell from the late stage of the Tribulation Realm to the middle stage, and could never advance any further in his life.
It was precisely for this reason that the garrison at the pass had great faith in Gu Song. After all, without Gu Song, most of the people at the pass would have perished in that calamity.
The price was that an immortal gave up his chance to become an immortal. That's right, Gu Song had a good chance of advancing to the immortal realm. At that time, no one was in charge of the upper lineage. Gu Song only needed to comprehend the lineage step by step and take charge of that righteous path before he could step into the immortal realm.
However, for the sake of Zhenyao Pass, for the soldiers on Zhenyao Pass, and for the people behind Zhenyao Pass, Gu Song personally severed his path to immortality.
The best way to break free from the Blood Sun is through physical isolation, meaning not to look at it. This will prevent you from falling into the rational chaos caused by the Blood Sun. As for those who have already lost their rationality, they only need to stop being exposed to the light of the Blood Sun.
But this is easier said than done. This round of blood sun is like the sun hanging above the Demon Suppression Pass. The entire area of the Demon Suppression Pass will be illuminated by the blood sun.
As it happened to be on the path of the light curtain, Gu Song, after releasing his cultivation, created a light curtain that could cover the entire Demon Suppression Pass, saving everyone.
Every time this blood-red sun rises, the soldiers on Zhenyao Pass know that the extraterrestrial demons are coming again.
Normally, the way to control the Blood Sun is very simple: just don't look at it. If someone has already started looking at the Blood Sun and is starting to be attracted to it, just interrupt them quietly.
It was precisely because of this simple solution that the soldiers at Zhenyao Pass rarely fell victim to the trick again. Even if a soldier did fall victim, they could simply call out to the person next to them.
The Blood Sun's second special ability is no longer a significant threat to the Demon Suppression Pass. Therefore, its current existence serves not only to command extraterrestrial demons in battle but also to exert psychological pressure on the soldiers at the Demon Suppression Pass.
Imagine the mental stress a human being would experience if they were constantly enveloped in such a bloody atmosphere.
Fortunately, the soldiers at Zhenyao Pass, after years of war, have become as steadfast as a rock.
Listening to Zhou Fan's description, Song Xun realized that this place was indeed fraught with danger, after all, he had almost been caught off guard just now.
"Thank you for the reminder, Captain Zhou. If it weren't for you, I would have really gotten myself into trouble."
"It's alright, you're new here, it's normal to experience this once."
"Song Xun, this place is truly fraught with danger."
At this moment, Jiang Wanfeng was already itching for a fight and couldn't wait to have a big battle. Although in recent days, Jiang Wanfeng had often acted like a demure and submissive girl in front of Song Xun.
However, Song Xun knew that swordsmen like Jiang Wanfeng were inherently warlike and eager for battle. The situation at Zhenyao Pass would only greatly ignite Jiang Wanfeng's fighting spirit and swordsman's heart.
With Zhou Fan's introduction along the way, the group quickly arrived at the Seventh City Tower. At this time, the members of the Seventh Squad were helping the soldiers unload supplies and combat tools. When they noticed that their captain had returned, they all greeted him.
"Seventh Squad, assemble, I have something to announce."
Then, Zhou Fan walked into the operations room of the Seventh Squad. Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng followed Zhou Fan in, and then the members of the Seventh Squad put down their work and came into the operations room.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zhou Fan introduced Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng to them.
"These two are our new teammates who joined us this month, Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng."
As soon as Zhou Fan said this, all eyes turned to Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng. The two were sitting together, showing no fear of being scrutinized by the crowd.
Everyone saw Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng's appearance, and although they didn't say anything, most of them were muttering to themselves.
These two little kids look so young, how did they end up joining our team?
"Song Xun is the peak master of Qingxuan Peak of the Beast Taming Sect, and Miss Jiang is also a true disciple of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect. Although neither of them has experienced the battle at Zhenyao Pass, they are willing to dedicate themselves and train, so they came to Zhenyao Pass."
Sure enough, they all have powerful backers; otherwise, they wouldn't be able to come to Zhenyao Pass to gain prestige.
The problem is, Zhenyao Pass isn't a place for gilding one's reputation.
Our seventh squad has already suffered enough; can't the higher-ups please stop torturing us...?
At this moment, the members of the seventh squad looked at each other. Although they didn't speak, their expressions revealed their suspicion and their attitude was very clear. They were all looking at Zhou Fan.
Zhou Fan's next sentence stopped everyone from overthinking and they immediately praised the superiors for their wisdom.
"At the same time, both Peak Master Song and Miss Jiang are at the late stage of the Nascent Soul Realm. This is also General Gu Song's special support for our Seventh Squad."
As soon as Zhou Fan finished speaking, the whole place erupted in uproar. At this moment, no one could have imagined that these two young boys and girls, who looked so young, were actually at the Nascent Soul Realm, which was even higher than their captain, Zhou Fan.
At this moment, everyone present no longer dared to underestimate the two, and instead looked at them with admiration.
Such young Nascent Soul cultivators have limitless potential. Moreover, both of them are willing to come to the Demon Suppression Pass to hone their skills. With such talent and such a mindset, they are definitely destined for greatness.
"Fellow colleagues, it is a great honor to fight alongside you all, my excellent teammates. In the next three months, I hope we can join hands to resist the extraterrestrial monsters and protect our rear."
"From now on, everyone can just call us Xiao Song and Xiao Jiang. Here, everyone is our senior."
Song Xun's two sentences set the tone for himself and Jiang Wanfeng to better integrate into the group. Subsequently, at Zhou Fan's suggestion, everyone introduced themselves to Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng.
Afterwards, Zhou Fan assigned tasks to everyone in the Seventh Squad. After the meeting, it marked the official start of Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng's life at Zhenyao Pass.
Although Zhou Fan assigned tasks to the other team members, his task for Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng was to familiarize themselves with all the information and facilities within the Seventh City Tower's defensive range before the battle officially began.
After the meeting ended, Zhou Fan did not leave immediately. Instead, he took Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng out of the tactics room and let them demonstrate their fighting styles and strengths.
With a major battle looming ahead, and Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng being the strongest members of the team, Zhou Fan naturally needed to understand them thoroughly in order to make the most appropriate judgments during the battle.
"Captain, I am a beast tamer, and this is my beast, Huang Bulang."
Subsequently, Song Xun summoned Huang Bulang, allowing Huang Bulang to demonstrate his abilities and give Zhou Fan a better understanding of them.
"Hmm, blitzkrieg, powerful in single combat, flexible in attack," Zhou Fan silently memorized. Then Song Xun demonstrated his swordsmanship, showing the combat strength of an ordinary swordsman.
Jiang Wanfeng then directly demonstrated the Ten Thousand Swords Return to One technique.
"Excellent, very good! A divine skill for group attacks! This move is extremely useful in war!" Zhou Fan was overjoyed.
Afterwards, Song Xun summoned Xiao Bai, but naturally he would not reveal that Xiao Bai was his tamed beast; this was Song Xun's deepest secret.
Song Xun told the members of Team Seven that Xiao Bai was Jiang Wanfeng's mount and possessed healing abilities.
Medics are still very rare at Zhenyao Pass, since most of the soldiers at Zhenyao Pass are more likely to die in battle than be injured.
However, Zhou Fan still gave Xiaobai a very high evaluation for her healing ability.
Now, Zhou Fan truly believes that he has struck gold. These two are not only of high cultivation level, but their combat abilities far exceed those of a normal late-stage Nascent Soul Realm expert.
After the two finished their demonstrations, not only was Zhou Fan overjoyed, but the other teammates of the Seventh Squad were also completely relieved of their unease. With such combat power joining the Seventh Squad, the Seventh Squad's combat strength in this battle was no less than that of most other squads.
Afterwards, the members of the Seventh Squad went to carry out the various tasks assigned to them by Zhou Fan, while Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng looked around within the Seventh Squad's defense area and would promptly go to help any teammate who needed assistance.
After that day, Song Xun and his companion had become quite familiar with their teammates in the Seventh Squad.
While Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng were nervously preparing at the Demon Suppression Pass, Tang He and Jiang Lie had already arrived at the Beast Taming Sect at the same time.
"Greetings, Prefect Tang. Today, sect affairs are quite complicated. Since taking office, I haven't had time to visit you properly. So, I've asked you to come and discuss the Black Fiend Sect matter first. Please forgive me, Prefect Tang."
Although Tang He's cultivation level was negligible, his current status was extremely high. As the governor of Cangwu County, he was arguably the most powerful official in the entire county.
Lin Canghai was hoping to receive strong support from the Cangwu County government for the mission to eliminate the Black Fiend Sect, so he was naturally very polite at this moment.
Of course, Tang He didn't care about any of that; his purpose in coming here was simply to focus on how to completely eliminate the Black Fiend Sect.
"Sect Leader Lin is too kind. In a way, we are destined to meet. I was the magistrate of Zuoping County before, and Peak Master Song of your sect is someone I watched grow up."
"Oh, hahaha, Song Xun is truly a prodigy."
After a few words, the three gradually became acquainted. After some pleasantries, they began to discuss the real reason for their gathering.
The Black Fiend Sect, Cangwu County, Beast Taming Sect, and Ten Thousand Swords Sect all deeply resent the Black Fiend Sect, so the three parties are in complete agreement on the issue of eradicating it.
The immediate issue to be discussed is how to eradicate the Black Fiend Sect. The three parties need to work together to find a suitable time and develop a detailed plan.
"This matter must be handled slowly and carefully. We must not rush it. The Black Fiend Sect has been entrenched in the Cangwu Mountains for many years, and its influence is not something that can be achieved overnight."
Because a large portion of the disciples in the Beast Taming Sect went out to train, and the first batch of disciples to go out to train were the most outstanding, as was Tang He. Although he had seized power with an iron fist, he had not yet fully grasped military power and control over the Demon Extermination Division.
Subsequently, everyone agreed that four months later, the plan to launch the attack on the Black Fiend Sect would be officially initiated, and during these four months, all three parties made preparations.
After all, the Black Fiend Sect's sect coordinates are there and won't run away, so none of the three parties are in a hurry.
Four months later, most of the disciples of the Beast Taming Sect will have returned, and Tang He will have enough time to gradually take control of the military power and the Demon Extermination Division of Cangwu County.
Another point is that Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng will be back in about four months.
Lin Canghai and Tang He thought that Song Xun had a blood feud with the Black Fiend Sect, and if they didn't take Song Xun with them when they wiped out the Black Fiend Sect, they would feel extremely sorry for Song Xun.
Jiang Lie wanted to give his daughter more opportunities to see the world. All three of them knew that Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng had entered the Demon Suppression Pass and were about to begin their garrison mission.
Song Xun and Jiang Wanfeng were learning how to use the defensive facilities in the city tower.
