My whole clan is a master, I have become invincible by investing in my clan members

When these words were spoken, Ling Junze couldn't help but be shocked.

"Feng Qingli, are you crazy? The Divine Phoenix Treasure House? Just three items?"

You know, that is the Divine Phoenix Treasury, one of the ten great treasuries in Tianxu!

There are countless holy-level treasures inside, and even quite a few quasi-emperor-level treasures.

In this case, being able to choose any three treasures from among them... is a great opportunity that countless cultivators would never dare to dream of!

At this moment, Jiang Chen could feel the undisguised desire in the other person's eyes.

Understand that the other party really wants to change!

Can.........

"Feel sorry."

"This thing is also extremely important to me."

The sound was not loud, but there was no room for maneuver.

After all, according to the previous hints, if you want to restore the divinity of the Broken Star Armor, you must have a complete black crystal made up of three fragments.

And now, I finally collected the first one, how can I trade it?

Feng Qingli was stunned.

Immediately, her beautiful eyes dimmed slightly.

In the end, she didn't say anything more, but just clenched her fists and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I understand."

"Then I can't fall behind."

"No matter what the cost, I will obtain a fragment of the Creation Crystal in the remaining stages!"

Ling Junze couldn't help but shake his head when he heard this: "I'm not interested in seizing the Fortune Crystal or anything like that... But having said that."

"The third Tianjia rating... Brother Jiang, are you planning to clear the entire reward pool of this Spacetime Secret Realm?"

Jiang Chen smiled faintly when he heard this.

Then he looked into the distance and said:

"Whether it's clear or not...it doesn't matter."

"The important thing is——"

"Luoyan City, I will continue to defend it."

The words fell.

Ling Junze and Feng Qingli both remained silent.

They know one thing very well—

The greater the reward, the more terrifying the risks that will follow!

Now it is only the second stage, but it can already be described as a sea of ​​blood and corpses.

Further back.

How many people will die in the third stage, the fourth stage, and finally the seventh stage?

They hardly dared to think about that kind of future...

"But..." Ling Junze murmured, "The bigger the waves, the more expensive the fish. Precisely because the difficulty is high enough, the rewards later on are even more exciting..."

Feng Qingli also let out a sigh: "If you want to reach the true peak, how can you find a way out without fighting?"

The two looked at each other, their eyes full of determination.

"Once you get here, there's no turning back!"

…………

Shortly after.

Before the monks of Luoyan City had finished cleaning up the battlefield.

An unparalleled majestic aura swept over from the horizon!

This aura was so strong that it made countless monks below tremble in their hearts and minds and unable to move!

"Great Sage!"

"Another Great Saint-level existence!!"

"Could it be that the demons have a backup plan?!"

"No!! No!! It's not the demon clan!!"

"This aura... gentle... steady... so familiar!"

Everyone was shocked and confused.

Jiang Chen felt something and was the first to look up in a certain direction.

I saw an old man with white hair and gray robe coming down from the sky!

"That is……"

Ling Junze and Feng Qingli's eyes narrowed.

Just as they were secretly guessing the identity of the visitor.

The many monks around were already in an uproar!!

"Greetings to the Deputy City Lord!"

"Everyone, look! The deputy city lord is back!!"

"Hahaha! With the City Lord, Deputy City Lord, and Commander Jiang here, what's there to be afraid of just a mere demon clan?!"

As the voices of these people rang out.

Ling Junze and Feng Qingli were slightly shocked.

At this moment, they are no longer as ignorant as when they first arrived.

Now, it is already known that there are two great saint-level powerful men in Luoyan City!

One of them is the city lord Xuan Ge, who is also the strongest person in the city!

The second is the deputy city lord who is at the third level of the Great Saint Realm - Cheng Huaigu!

However, this deputy city lord went to the main city of the East Region alone to seek help a few days ago and has not returned since.

During this period, apart from the arrival of three "reinforcements" from the main city, there was no other movement.

This also made many monks in the city wonder whether he had met with an accident.

After all, the demon army is spread all over the Eastern Region, so it is not surprising to have such speculation.

"Thankfully, he's back safely. With this, the human race has gained another great sage, giving us a better chance of defending Luoyan City..."

Ling Junze slowly exhaled and felt a little relieved.

Feng Qingli looked at the unconcealable joy between Cheng Huaigu's brows, and her heart moved.

"If we hadn't received accurate information while going to the main city to seek help, I'm afraid we wouldn't have returned so quickly. Could it be that...that Taoist Tongtian is finally ready to take action?"

"No! We've only just passed the second stage, and it's still early for the final seventh stage. This shouldn't be the case. So what is going on?"

Just when she was full of thoughts.

The monks around were already discussing:

"Senior Cheng is able to return today, he must have brought back important news!"

"Could it be that Master Tongtian is willing to take action? If he takes action, not only our Luoyan City, but I'm afraid the entire Luoxing Mansion will be saved!"

"Reinforcements are coming...we are saved!"

Amidst this discussion, the city lord Xuan Ge stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Thank you for your hard work, Brother Cheng."

Cheng Huaigu waved his hand gently: "For the people in the city, it's not tiring."

After saying this, he glanced at the ruined battlefield and couldn't help but sigh:

"It's just... if I had come back sooner, maybe I could have saved a few more lives."

He could sense how strong the remaining demonic energy was.

It can be seen that the intensity of this battle far exceeded his expectations.

As for the Luoyan City, I'm afraid it will suffer heavy casualties in this battle!

Under such circumstances, it would be extremely difficult to withstand several more waves of attacks from the demons until Master Tongtian arrived...

Xuan Ge saw the worry on his old friend's face and knew what he was thinking. He shook his head and said, "Brother Cheng, today's battle may not be as tragic as you think."

“This time, we not only held on.”

"Moreover, the losses in the Vanguard Battalion were far smaller than you and I expected."

Cheng Huaigu was stunned and didn't even wait to ask.

He was interrupted by Xuan Ge raising his hand.

Immediately afterwards, Xuan Ge looked at Jiang Chen beside him and said, "Boy, report the casualties of the vanguard camp to our deputy city lord."

After hearing these words, Cheng Huaigu was slightly stunned and subconsciously looked at Jiang Chen.

Did he hear it correctly?

Shouldn't Commander Leng Luan be the one reporting on the casualties of the Vanguard Camp?

Why did this young man in front of him, whose cultivation level was only that of a saint, speak?

In his "memory", he had seen this person in the main city and knew his name.

And the other party was also one of the supports he had sought in the main city.

He was extremely anxious at that time.

But Lord Tongtian was not in the main city, so he could only borrow three people from the main city for emergency.

To be honest, he didn't hold out much hope at first.

After all, what’s the point of sending three saints to Luoyan City?

Become cannon fodder in the battle against the demons?

But now, Jiang Chen, whose cultivation level is only that of a saint, has become the reporter designated by Xuan Ge?

"It's really strange. What happened in the city during the time I was away?"

Cheng Huaigu became suspicious and subconsciously glanced at Leng Luan.

However, the commander of the vanguard camp looked solemn, with his hands behind his back, standing beside Jiang Chen. He showed neither dissatisfaction nor surprise, but seemed to have been accustomed to it for a long time.

Seeing this, Cheng Huaigu became more suspicious.

Just as he was about to speak with his lips moving, he heard Jiang Chen suddenly say:

"Deputy City Lord, the original strength of the Vanguard Battalion is 221 people."

"After this battle, there are still one hundred and ninety-eight people capable of combat."

"Nine killed, four seriously injured, and ten slightly injured."

"Among all the soldiers in the camp, not one retreated in battle, and not one fled!"

The voice was not loud, but it was like a morning bell, striking directly into the heart.

The air seemed to freeze for a moment.

The next moment, Cheng Huaigu's expression finally changed.

He stared at Jiang Chen in disbelief, his throat moving as he spoke in disbelief: "You said... nine people were killed?"

Jiang Chen nodded slightly and corrected himself, "To be precise, eight people died in battle, and one person died of exhaustion."

"Among them, the Vanguard Battalion killed one Demon King, thirty-seven Demon Generals, and over six hundred thousand miscellaneous soldiers."

"All the remains of the demon generals have been sealed together, and the results of the battle can be verified at any time."

In an instant, the surroundings fell into dead silence!

Cheng Huaigu's eyelids twitched violently, and he almost suspected that he had heard it wrong.

Eight men died in battle and one was exhausted.

This is simply... a miracle!

“Unbelievable…Unbelievable!!”

As the deputy city lord, he naturally understood the situation of the vanguard camp.

And judging from the remaining demonic energy at the scene.

If we wanted to face this kind of attack, in the past, we would be lucky to be able to keep 60% of our troops!

But now? They had managed to hold the outer city defenses with a vanguard battalion of just over 200 men, slaying 600,000 enemies with virtually no casualties?!

Cheng Huaigu was shocked.

He really couldn't understand.

So he turned to look at Xuan Ge and asked, "City Lord, what on earth is going on?"

Xuan Ge did not answer immediately.

Instead, he glanced at Jiang Chen first.

Deep in those eyes, there was admiration that was difficult to conceal.

A few breaths of silence.

Just when the doubts in Cheng Huaigu's heart had reached its peak.

He finally spoke:

"You may not believe it, but it's true. All of this... is thanks to Jiang Chen."

After these words were spoken, Cheng Huaigu's expression became even more surprised!

Then he suddenly turned his head and looked at Jiang Chen.

He is just a saint, not even among the saint kings. How can he influence the outcome of the war?

Thinking of this, he tentatively asked, "Lord City Lord...are you joking?"

"He's just a saint. Although he was sent by the main city, to say that this battle depends entirely on him... isn't that a bit exaggerated?"

Upon hearing this, Xuan Ge just shook his head slightly.

"I know you're confused."

"After all, when I first met him, I was just like you... I didn't take him seriously."

"But in just two days, he made me, and the entire Luoyan City, change their opinion of him."

"It's no exaggeration to say that without him, whether the current Vanguard Camp could retain even 50% of its strength is still a question."

After saying that, he used his spiritual sense to transmit sound and told the other party everything that had happened in the past two days.

When he first came, he relied solely on his own strength to take on 10% of his punch.

On the first day, on the battlefield, he used his saintly cultivation to confront a great demon saint!

Until today, facing the siege of eighteen peak demon generals, he broke it with one move!

Finally, he even joined forces with me to surround and kill a great demon saint, and killed him, shocking the demon army and forcing it to flee in defeat!

As news spread.

The more Cheng Huaigu listened, the more dazed his expression became.

To be honest, he has seen geniuses and encountered incredible achievements in his life.

But what Xuan Ge said... doesn't seem like something a "saint" would do at all, it's not even related to it at all!

Especially the last battle——

As a saint, he transcended two realms and killed the Demon Sage!

This kind of thing is simply unheard of!

It's so exaggerated that even myths and legends wouldn't dare to make it up like this!

Because of this, even though he was familiar with Xuan Ge's character, he was still a little bit unbelievable for a while.

After a long silence, he turned his head stiffly and looked around.

The monks of the vanguard camp, led by Leng Luan, were gathered around.

Their eyes all fell on Jiang Chen.

Without exception, their eyes were burning and full of fanaticism.

Cheng Huaigu was shocked when he saw this scene.

It was not until this moment that he was willing to believe that what Xuan Ge said was true.

Then, he took a deep breath and solemnly clasped his fists towards Jiang Chen: "Thank you for defending Luoyan City this time, fellow Daoist!"

After knowing his strength and achievements.

He no longer underestimated the other party's saintly cultivation, but placed him on the same level as himself and addressed him as a fellow Taoist.

Jiang Chen did not act arrogantly and immediately returned the greeting:

"Whether it's Luoyan City or other cities, they are all the lands of our human race."

"It is our duty to defend our territory and protect our people. We...have no choice but to do so!"

Hearing this, Cheng Huaigu couldn't help but sigh in his heart, "There are successors."

Looking back on his life, he had spent half his life in the military and defended countless territories, and was accustomed to the impetuous and arrogant nature of the younger generation of the human race.

But today, the young man in front of me has both strength and achievements, but he does not take credit for himself, and his words show his responsibility.

This kind of mentality has crushed all his peers in the world and can be called the best!

Just as his mind was in turmoil.

Xuan Ge suddenly turned his head and asked in a deep voice:

"Brother Cheng, now that you've returned, have you received any news from the main city?"

As soon as these words were spoken, they instantly touched the hearts of all the monks present!

It's not just Ling Junze and Feng Qingli.

Even the soldiers of the vanguard camp who were already exhausted subconsciously pricked up their ears, their eyes were so nervous that they were almost dull!

Although Luoyan City has been temporarily defended, everyone understands that—

It is not these people who truly determine the direction of this war.

But it is——the Taoist Master of All Heavens!

If that most powerful being is willing to take action, the battle situation will be completely reversed!

Otherwise, no matter how hard you try, you will only be struggling to hold on and will not be able to hold on to the end.

Facing everyone's nervous expressions, Cheng Huaigu nodded slowly.

This action instantly made everyone open their eyes wide and their breathing became rapid!

"Really...reinforcements are really coming?"

"Lord Tongtian is going to take action?"

"Hahaha, we've finally been waiting for this!"

Not only the vanguard camp, but even the many monks on the city wall showed joy.
