Destiny is ashes

Chapter 618: Immortal Cultivator Group (33, last day for double monthly tickets, please give me monthly tickets!)
"Gang Hai, Ji Yillong. A peak Foundation Establishment cultivator, a mercenary. Wanted by the Sky Monitoring Bureau because of a gang feud, wanted level D. The Sky Monitoring Bureau's evaluation of you is that you are a very cooperative leader of the wilderness group. After a detailed evaluation of you, you may be hired as a special team for the Sky Monitoring Bureau's wilderness labor dispatch."

A feathered cultivator who was three heads taller than Gang Hai stood in front of everyone. After Chen Jingqin threw out Gang Hai's information, she turned around and looked at Qu Tong. "Mad Wolf, Qu Tong. A half-feathered cultivator at the peak of Qi Refining. Former employee of Xuanhao Company. A robber in the wilderness. Wanted for stealing company assets and attacking the company's information database. Wanted level D. The Heaven Monitoring Bureau describes you as a stray dog ​​on the roadside, you can be found everywhere. The reason you've been able to hang around in the wilderness for so many years is because they're too lazy to catch you."

The evaluations were high and low, one praised and one criticized. She said calmly, "But it doesn't matter. All this is in the past. From now on... no, from three months ago, you are already the two deputy captains of the Sixth Wilderness Development Brigade under the Xuanye City Expedition Bureau. Your captain is An Xuan, the chief of the Third Middle School Jingwei College. This time, you are using the college's martial arts test mission as a cover to carry out the official wilderness development mission."

"However, due to the influence of some hostile forces that were not united and loyal, the Kun monster and the monster king were attracted just as the development began. In order to ensure the spark of the development, you, under the leadership of Chief Captain An Xuan, did your best to open the gate of the cave, blocking the invasion of Kun monster and monster kings such as Jinwu, and protecting the group's greatest asset."

Since Gang Hai's face is made of steel, he has no expression. Only the light flashing in his eyes can show how intensely he is thinking.

The Qu Tong on the other side is different.

"Me, me?"

Qu Tong was a little confused. He shrank his head, but still couldn't help but tell the truth: "I am a prisoner..."

"Shut up."

Du Tianwei's eyes widened, and his liquid metal eyeballs, like the golden red sun, seemed to light up like a furnace: "You and your wilderness robbery team are all hired by us, the Luofu Group! It has been like this from the beginning to the end!"

"The battle between you and An Xuan was just a smokescreen to mislead and deceive other forces. You have been a member of Luofu since the beginning, so your actions of occupying the fortress area three months ago or even earlier mean that the pioneering war has begun. We have already built a pioneering area in the North Lake District."

"You, can you understand?"

Qu Tong gritted his teeth.

He understood... Of course he understood! The company, the city, the cave... It was all like this! They didn't care about the truth at all, they just acted for profit!
Whatever they want must become a reality, even if everything is false and virtual, it can still be true.

In order to gain a moral advantage over other groups, what was wrong with accepting a wilderness cultivator with blood on his hands into Xuanye City? As long as it could satisfy their greater interests, any law or wanted order could be cancelled with just one word.

It was just like how the company could suppress its hatred for revenge with just a thought... It was so easy to manipulate, so insignificant.

Qu Tong understood it very well. If An Jing had not expressed his respect for him and others before, the first thing that the Dutian Fawei would have done would most likely be to kill him, Gang Hai and others, and then find a group of loyal people to put on their equipment and clothes, and claim that they were them - in this way, everything would be in the hands of the group.

What they want to control is not only the body and mind, not only the wealth and status, they also want to seize the truth and reality of the past, future and present!

Gang Hai raised his hand and patted Qu Tong on the back, bringing the curled-up Qu Tong back to his senses.

"That's it."

Then, he heard Gang Hai's words: "Everything depends on the group's leadership. I've been a member of the group for a long time!"

Gang Hai's words were joyous, without a trace of falsehood, and Qu Tong also realized that no matter whether he understood the group's intentions or not, he now had no power and no need to resist - this was the first step for him to start a new life, whether he forgot or remembered the hatred in his heart... he could not fall here.

So, he also forced himself to stand up and repeated the same words as Steel Corpse.

"very good."

Seeing that the two were so sensible, the Heavenly Guards didn't say much. All this was to give face to Director Chen and An Xuan. Since these people had already agreed, she threw a Taixu magic weapon to each of them: "It contains spiritual stones and healing pills, as well as soul suppressants, which are indispensable for us immortal monks... You will still be useful in the future, so you can't lose control. If you have any tendency to be possessed by demons, report to me immediately, and these Fengdu Guards will send you back for treatment."

"As for now, you will build a camp here."

After giving the order, she turned around and left - talking to these lowly people in the wilderness was her job, and outside of work, she naturally didn't want to waste even a moment talking.

Gang Hai had no idea about this, and even Qu Tong was stunned.

Oh my god, so much?
Are the people in Dongtian so rich?
However, although they were stunned for a moment by the large-scale move, they both understood very well that this was the value of their and An Jing's united front being demonstrated - if it were really a wilderness mercenary and robbery cultivator without anyone's support, they would have surely disappeared long ago.

Just by asking them to shut up, the group can give them so much... The strength of the group is really unfathomable.

at the same time.

Outside the gate of the cave.

North Lake Fortress Area.

When An Jing and Director Chen passed through the Cave Heaven Gate and returned to the Tianyuan Realm, everything was different from before.

Accompanied by screams and explosions, the roars and howls of countless monsters rang out. The terrifying sounds of the monsters resounded in all directions, and smoke and dust rose up in the sky, making people unable to help but cover their ears.

An Jing raised his head and looked around. As Director Chen continued to raise the height of the Star Moon Ice Wheel, this look around turned into a bird's-eye view. Then An Jing saw that the entire fortress area and the North Lake area had been surrounded and occupied by almost endless demonic birds. Endless demonic energy gathered together and turned into a demonic cloud that soared into the sky, blocking the light of the sky.

And in this monstrous evil spirit, there were faintly seven purple mansion auras vibrating slowly, like a heart.

Among them were two local monsters that were beaten back and forth by the Golden Crow and the Kun monster.

A true pioneering war-level beast tide is coming.

This scene made An Jing raise his eyebrows. Surrounded by the beast tide, he remained quite calm: "This is not easy to solve."

“That’s common sense.”

Director Chen also admired An Jing's calmness, so he stroked his beard and smiled, "But this time, there won't be so many intrigues... The garrison of the Northwest Rift Valley Fortress has arrived. With them here, without the appearance of a great demon king comparable to a True Lord, it is impossible to stir up any waves."

"Ok?"

It was at this moment that An Jing suddenly felt something. He raised his head and looked upward, and heard a long cry like that of a whale in the distant sea. An extremely huge shadow emerged from the top of the evil cloud and enveloped the sky, bringing with it an unparalleled terrifying momentum, blocking out the sky and the sun.

The sky darkened, then suddenly brightened.

Layer upon layer of evil-looking clouds, like mountains, were spinning and agitated, and were pushed aside by a force. Rays of light leaked out from them, like a waterfall of light pouring down from the sea of ​​sky.

It was a battleship.

An immortal warship as huge as a mountain, as magnificent as a city, and wrapped in circles of wooden roots!
Radiating a bluish-purple light, the neatly-arranged formation patterns flickered with the spiritual energy that absorbed and exhaled from heaven and earth. The moment the immortal battleship appeared, the seven Purple Mansion Demon Kings subconsciously took a step back.

Before they could get angry, in an instant, a huge roar sounded, like meteorites falling from the sky, drowning out all other sounds.

Something fell from the immortal warship—a series of vermilion rays of light lit up along with the surging waves of the void, and then a series of red-bright silk threads pierced straight down from the sky and fell to the ground in an instant. Amid the rising smoke and the shaking of the earth, it turned into a...

fortress.

A semicircular permanent metal fortress fell from the Taixu gap opened by the Xiandao battleship, like a meteorite falling from the sky, embedded in the earth. From then on, it was indestructible and seemed to be eternal.

An Jing raised his head and looked at the sky.

As one Taixu magic array after another unfolded, a series of fortress buildings poured down from under the immortal warships, like rain comets, crashing to the earth.

Hundreds of meters long steel 'magic wedges' were inserted straightly and accurately into the earth. The spiritual patterns flashed from bottom to top like breathing. Each of them lit up a different light, changing the earth's spiritual veins.

The original fortress group was directly smashed into pieces, turning into waste debris, and the original spiritual veins were also completely changed. In a short moment, along with the wedges of the formation that fell like a meteor shower, a purple mansion-level formation was formed.

Endless scarlet flames streaking across the sky and shining in the atmosphere are the best portrayal of a meteor shower.

A steel fortress forest took shape before An Jing's eyes, accompanied by roars, explosions and vibrations.

The monsters were either crushed into pieces by the piles of steel or blown away for miles. The survivors all ran away with their tails between their legs, only daring to bark from a distance.

But behind them, the demon kings from the entire surrounding area of ​​the seven heads were watching the sky ship overhead warily, howling, roaring, and retreating little by little.

They were afraid.

"…Has Luo Fu been ready for a long time?"

Seeing this scene, An Jing closed his eyes and then opened them again.

He calmed down and suppressed the joy of 'achieving something'.

Facing the terrifying strength of the Tianyuan Cultivator Group, the young cultivator said solemnly: "It seems that I just happened to be there."

"I am indeed prepared. The plan is not for today, but today is fine."

After watching this scene, Director Chen looked at the force that belonged to Luofu with pride, and responded with a smile: "But don't underestimate yourself, An Xuan. Without you, the group would not have made up its mind to use the Taixu Skyship to construct the fortress at the fastest speed."

"It's not because of anyone else, all of this is because of you!"
