Alien Science Cultivation

Zhang Qiang and the other two were stunned. After all, the change in style was so swift that they couldn't react for a moment. "Excuse me, gentlemen... This is my military body... My fighting power may be slightly lower, but my military tactics are far superior," Guan Fei explained. He raised the spear from his shoulder with his right hand, then slammed the butt of the spear into the ground, sending it radiating outward with an invisible wave. Zhang Qiang and the other two understood, and their figures blurred for a moment before vanishing completely. Having witnessed Zhang Qiang's cloning technique, Guan Fei didn't take Zhang Qiang and the others' strange disappearance before his eyes seriously. A moment later, six cultivators, four men and two women, rushed towards the general's cave.

The six lieutenants were all clad in white porcelain armor, exuding an imposing presence. Two of them were beasts in disguise, seemingly preferring beastlike features. One had prominent fangs in its mouth, resembling an unknown bear, while the other sported a single black horn on its forehead, resembling a rhinoceros. The other two men and two women were human. However, the soul of one of the cultivators, a white-haired old man, was shrouded in a deathly aura, while the other, a tall, middle-aged woman, had also been possessed by a ghost. Although they appeared to be only at the early stages of the Immortal Venerable realm, Zhang Qiang's divine sense revealed their true cultivation to be in the mid-to-late stages of the Divine King realm, with the tall woman slightly closer at the mid-stage. "Oh no... The general is in danger... It seems the humans have underestimated the ghosts' intentions... Both the human and beast races have deployed nearly all their experts to support the desert and ocean, and the internal teleportation arrays rely primarily on energy cannons! The general and the lieutenants' cultivation levels are not high, and only the teleportation arrays near the desert and ocean are manned by powerful cultivators..."

Zhang Qiang in the void witnessed the scene and instantly became nervous. He quickly sent a message to Guan Fei: "The old man and the tall woman are from the ghost clan. Their cultivation is at the late and middle stages of the Divine King respectively. They must not be defeated."

"I'll leave them in the cave to reminisce about the past. You must find a way to eliminate the low-level ghosts among the soldiers. After that, immediately guard the energy cannon and follow orders. You three are temporarily requisitioned," Guan Fei solemnly announced. Although Guan Fei's tone was firm and commanding, Zhang Qiang could sense a sense of sadness. As Guan Fei finished his message, the six lieutenants came to him in unison. "I'm in a good mood today. Please join me for a few drinks. Dujiao, go get some good wine and food from the military tent. Today, we brothers and sisters will have a good chat," Guan Fei said with a smile. The lieutenant with a horn on his forehead ran towards the cave entrance with excitement and responded happily, "Okay!" Clearly, they had held such gatherings many times.

"You three, listen up! Kill the ghosts among the soldiers. Immediately fire your energy cannons at my cave. This is a military order. Let us die a worthy death. Please." Guan Fei telepathically transmitted his thoughts to Zhang Qiang and the other two in the void. Compared to ordinary telepathy, telepathy is widely used in the military and offers greater security and confidentiality.

It was just like the feeling when the leader of Qingshan Sect first appeared in front of Zhang Qiang and spoke. The voice was not transmitted from the ear canal, but was a fluctuation at the level of soul consciousness.

Zhang Qiang and the other two looked at the scene in front of them, their hearts unable to calm down for a long time. There is an energy array in this cave, and with Guan Fei delaying time, even a master in the God King realm would find it difficult to escape easily. Guan Fei is undoubtedly risking his life. "Yes." Zhang Qiang tried to calm down and responded in the same voice transmission. Then, Zhang Qiang's consciousness moved, and the power of nothingness locked onto the targets among the soldiers one by one. After the lock was completed, a sharp light flashed in Zhang Qiang's eyes, and his Dantian was instantly activated frantically. Among the soldiers imprisoned by the ghost cultivators, those with low cultivation were directly wiped out. Then, three figures exerted the "Extreme Shadow Art" to the extreme. Dozens of black shadows shuttled back and forth in the soldiers' team, and the ghosts were quickly eliminated one by one.

"Sergeants, listen! I'm Dujiao. The Ghost Tribe has invaded our army. Turn your cannons and aim at the commander's residence. Fire! Fire!" As the Ghost Tribe fell, wisps of deathly aura emanated. Dujiao's mournful cry echoed throughout the barracks. The soldiers seemed still unaware, their voices filled with confusion. "Aim at the commander's residence?" Zhang Qiang's consciousness revealed that the two Ghost Tribe Divine King-level masters within the cave residence had also sensed something unusual. "Let me do it." Zhang Qiang's words had barely left his mark when eighty-one massive turrets on the scene seemed to automatically turn toward the commander's cave. Then, eighty-one dazzling beams of light shot rapidly towards the cave residence. A resounding explosion left the cave residence empty, but the energy cannon's power continued to spread, rapidly forming a massive gully. "Hmm? In that case, you'll be left behind." Zhang Qiang's words uttered, and his figure instantly transformed into dozens of figures, sprinting towards a late-stage Divine King Golden Core. With a flick of his right hand, a black bamboo leaf pierced the Golden Core like lightning. The ghost figure on the golden elixir looked in disbelief at the Foundation Establishment human behind him, who looked a bit lifeless, yet also seemed to have a bit of life in him. He never understood until his death what race Zhang Qiang, who possessed both a black and a gold elixir, actually belonged to.

In reality, it wasn't Zhang Qiang's deliberate act that confused the ghosts, but rather the second black bamboo leaf. After absorbing a large amount of death energy, the moment Zhang Qiang summoned it and gathered its power, the death energy enveloped Zhang Qiang. However, the bamboo leaf's rapid flight was so rapid that even Zhang Qiang's own consciousness struggled to keep up. The Guixu power within a late-stage Divine King's black elixir was incredibly tempting to the bamboo leaf. In a split second, the bamboo leaf absorbed the ghost's black elixir and then swiftly returned to Zhang Qiang's dantian. A spatial ring was also retrieved by the bamboo leaf, landing in front of Zhang Qiang. "Haha... you do have some conscience. Alas... what a pity for Senior Guan Fei. The energy cannon was truly powerful. Even a mid-stage Divine King ghost's black elixir had its black elixir blasted, and its spatial ring is likely shattered as well." Zhang Qiang's mood shifted from joy to sorrow as he gazed at the massive gully in the ground left by the energy cannon's impact. The ravine was a thousand meters deep, stretching far into the distance along the ground. Its path left devastated, and smoke and dust filled the air around the ravine. Near the teleportation array, everyone watched in horror as the scene unfolded. Only the one-eyed man knelt on the ground, convulsing in pain. Zhang Qiang naturally understood Guan Fei's intentions. To prevent the ghosts from noticing the abnormality, he had no choice but to save his only brother. It's easy to imagine the pain that the one-eyed man must be feeling at this moment.

"Don't be too sad, my friend. Everyone has to die, some are heavier than Mount Tai, some are lighter than a feather." Zhang Qiang left several figures in the air, and in an instant he came in front of Dujiao, and couldn't help but speak to comfort him.

"Yes, sir," Dujiao replied respectfully, hearing Zhang Qiang's words of comfort. Zhang Qiang was taken aback. After all, at this point, he was at most a businessman, a junior, and naturally couldn't handle such respect from the unicorn. Noticing Zhang Qiang's awkward expression, Dujiao explained truthfully, "Don't worry, sir. Guan Fei is my commander-in-chief and a father figure to me. I've lived within the Multifaceted Tribe since childhood, growing up and cultivating alongside Brother Guan. Before his death, Brother Guan commanded me to follow you, sir, without complaint, even if it meant becoming your slave. I also promised Brother Guan that I would follow you for the rest of my life." Zhang Qiang was deeply moved by Dujiao's explanation. How many people in the mortal realm and the immortal realm could embody this kind of brotherly love? Invisibly, Guan Fei also entrusted the Multifaceted Tribe and Dujiao to him.

"Okay. What's your race? Also, although you are older than me, your lifespan is much longer than humans. From now on, call me Brother Qiang." Zhang Qiang did not refuse Dujiao's request to follow him, and said softly.

"I don't know what species of beast I am, and Brother Guan couldn't find any other beasts that look like me. Brother only remembers that I entered their village on my own, and the villagers don't know my specific origins."
