Immortal cultivation starts with copying.

It took more than ten days to complete the preparations.

After much deliberation, Chen Yunhao became even more determined to go to Zhenhuang City.

Although he could keep practicing, he couldn't do it behind closed doors. For the sake of the ancient mirror and so that he could go further in the future, he had to go to Zhenhuang City to broaden his horizons.

I put away the eighth-level locking formation in the cave and canceled the lease renewal. If I come back in the future, I can continue to rent it.

This time when he went to Zhenhuang City, the entire beast tide lasted for nearly half a year. He couldn't leave the house empty for half a year, and his spirit stones didn't come from the wind.

After packing everything up, Chen Yunhao headed for East City early.

In the square in front of the East City Teleportation Hall, there has been a surge of people every day in recent days, and it has been very lively.

The Five Elements Sect set up more than a dozen registration points in the square. This is not only for preliminary registration, but the Five Elements Sect also needs to identify whether there are any evil cultivators or demonic cultivators among the cultivators who go there.

In addition, non-combat talents must be identified. These personnel will be issued special identity badges, and when they go to Zhenhuang City, the areas they are assigned to will also be different.

Chen Yunhao randomly selected a registration point and lined up with the crowd.

For non-combat talents, you don't need to refine elixirs, spiritual weapons, or spiritual talismans on the spot. It's enough for the cultivator to say what he is good at.

Normally, no cultivator would pretend to be someone else, because once you arrive in Zhenhuang City, you will be exposed if you cannot produce the elixirs you have refined, repair the magic weapons, or even produce a large number of talismans.

Any monk who dares to impersonate will be sent directly to the front line, the most dangerous place, once discovered.

All monks who have registered and received identity badges will be directly arranged in the teleportation hall and will be teleported away until there are fifty people.

Most of the people in the long team are ordinary monks, and everyone has a different expression on their face.

Some people looked excited and eager to try, while others looked worried, as if they were forced into a desperate situation.

Some people have good psychological qualities and look calm. Although Chen Yunhao was a little nervous, he believed more in his own abilities and was generally very stable.

The registration point is managed by a middle-aged cultivator in the Foundation Establishment stage.

"My dear friend, do you have any special skills?"

"I'm good at making various talismans..."

Chen Yunhao replied calmly.

"Can you show me the talisman you made?"

There are many cultivators who are good at refining talismans. If you can only refine first-level, low-grade talismans, it is not considered a skill.

Especially on the battlefield of the beast tide, a first-level low-grade talisman can't play any big role at all.

Therefore, there is a strict rule for the selection of talisman makers, which is that they must be able to make talismans of medium quality or above.

Chen Yunhao had already inquired about this rule.

The Five Elements Sect had been recruiting in the East City Square for over ten days, and the rules had already been spread, so there was no need to deliberately inquire about them.

Chen Yunhao nodded, slapped the storage bag at his waist, and grabbed a handful of talismans.

The middle-aged foundation-building cultivator looked at the hundreds of various mid-grade and high-grade talismans in Chen Yunhao's hands and nodded with a smile.

These hundred mid-grade and high-grade talismans are not a small number. They require several thousand low-grade spirit stones. Ordinary Qi Refining cultivators really don't have the financial resources to do so.

The middle-aged monk casually took out a palm-sized yellow bamboo plate and handed it to Chen Yunhao.

The bamboo plaque is not a magical instrument, it is made of ordinary bamboo.

To deal with this beast tide, the Five Elements Sect has to recruit 50,000 to 60,000 cultivators. Even a large family cannot possibly refine 50,000 nameplates for magic weapons.

There was a simple character written on the yellow bamboo plaque, very simple and clear. Once it was hung around the waist, everyone knew that this was the talisman maker.

Chen Yunhao hung the bamboo sign around his waist and followed the crowd towards the teleportation hall.

At this moment, every teleportation array in the teleportation hall was flashing with spiritual light. Some people were being teleported away, and some were being teleported in. Anyway, it was much more lively than when he had been here before.

Ordinary monks who do not have any special skills have a gray bamboo badge hanging around their waists, which is easy to identify.

Moreover, this gray bamboo badge is only worn by cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage, and there is only one word on it: war.

As for the recruited Foundation Establishment cultivators, the color of their identity nameplates turned dark red, and those belonging to the combat group also had the word "war" on their nameplates.

The teleportation array to Zhenhuang City has been modified by the Five Elements Sect and can teleport fifty cultivators at a time.

Because the distance is quite far, the teleportation array will consume fifteen medium-grade spirit stones for each transmission, which means that only those with a deep foundation in the Five Elements Sect can afford it.

There were disciples from the Five Elements Sect maintaining order at the scene, and Chen Yunhao stood on the teleportation array with the crowd.

A flash of white light passed by, and Chen Yunhao's eyes turned white. For a moment, he could not see anything clearly.

When he came to his senses, only five or six breaths had passed, and a group of people had arrived at the teleportation array of Zhenhuang City.

The teleportation hall in Zhenhuang City is very small, with only two teleportation arrays for entry and exit.

As early as after the Five Elements Sect released the news of the beast tide, no one was allowed to leave here and could only come in.

"You, you, and him, come with me..."

Just as Chen Yunhao was observing the surrounding environment, several cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage walked in. One of them pointed at three or four people including Chen Yunhao.

Including Chen Yunhao, these people all had yellow bamboo badges hanging around their waists and were all non-combatants.

Chen Yunhao didn't say anything either. He followed the few people silently and walked out of the teleportation hall with the Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Zhenhuang City was built at the entrance of a huge valley, so the entire city was rectangular, like a huge wall, blocking the entrance to the wilderness.

The wild area is also called the Million Mountains. Behind the wild city is a flat world controlled by humans.

Right in front of Zhenhuang City are endless mountains. Except for the valley guarded by Zhenhuang City, there are steep cliffs on both sides. This is definitely a natural barrier.

There are six main passages into the Baiwan Mountains, which have long been guarded by fortified cities built by humans.

There are some other entrances and exits in the continuous wilderness border, but due to the terrain factors, it is impossible to form a large-scale beast tide.

As long as it is not a large-scale beast tide, dozens of monsters running out here and there are harmless and cannot change the direction of the entire battle at all.

The valley is about twenty miles long from east to west, and the mountain tops on both sides of the valley are more than a hundred meters above the ground.

Therefore, the city of Zhenhuang is about twenty miles long from east to west and only ten miles wide from north to south. The height of the city wall is nearly one hundred meters and about two meters thick.

A large defensive formation was also arranged on the city wall facing the valley, which not only covered the city wall but also the entire sky above the city. There were two Nascent Soul cultivators stationed in the city all year round.
