Traveling through time to cultivate immortality: a life and death test

The sect's protective barrier was activated, awakening all of the Qianji Sect's disciples. Those not in self-cultivation fled out of their caves to investigate. Shangguan Nan, a mid-Nascent Soul cultivator, led five or six Nascent Soul elders and hurried over, believing an enemy attack. Upon seeing Elder Cao smilingly lead Nangong Yan and two warships in, they realized the newcomers were friends, not enemies, and finally relaxed.

Lü Hua and Dao Lang, two newly appointed elders who were training the army, also looked up curiously at the sky, shocked by the murderous aura brought by the Demon Dragon Special Forces. This murderous aura was not cultivated through daily training, but was clearly condensed from fighting on the battlefield.

"This is an elite force that has fought in hundreds of battles! And each of them has a cultivation level above the Jindan stage. We are no match for them!" Lu Hua and Dao Lang have been training hard for ten years, and the confidence they have accumulated has been shattered at this moment.

The members of the Magic Dragon Special Forces were also silently observing the military training in the square. It was clear that their own training methods had the same origins, and they instantly felt a sense of familiarity. Perhaps it was all the work of the Marshal? They unconsciously suppressed their murderous aura, and the troops below finally relaxed. The pressure just now had made them feel like they were facing a formidable enemy.

The majestic Demon Dragon aircraft carrier hovered above the square. Though its special forces included both humans and demons, they stood in unison on the deck, demonstrating exceptional military prowess. This scene deeply moved the Thousand Machine Sect. Upon hearing that the team had been brought by the long-missing leader, Liu Xing, everyone was even more delighted, believing that their frustrations were finally coming to an end.

"Junior Brother Shangguan, come and help me entertain the distinguished guests. The other elders and disciples should just go about their business." After Cao Changyun gave the order, he took the lead and walked towards the reception room.

Chen Gong and the King Kong special forces rested on the spot, and then followed Nangong Yan and Cao Changyun to the reception room. Several people sat down as host and guest, and the boys served them fragrant tea. Cao Changyun swept away his previous worries, and now his face was full of smiles. He greeted everyone warmly and took out the precious spiritual tea that he had collected for many years. Shangguan Nan seemed a little restrained. Everyone present was a great monk. Although he did not deliberately release pressure, it also made him feel a little pressured. Moreover, Nangong Yan came from behind and was promoted to a great monk one step faster than him. It was a great thing for Qianji Sect, but he was also unwilling to accept it, and there was a hint of jealousy in his heart.

"Welcome two distinguished guests. I am Cao Changyun, the Grand Elder of Qianji Sect. Shangguan Nan is the Peak Master of the Puppet Department of Qianji Sect, and Nangong Yan is the Peak Master of the Restriction Peak. I believe you two are already very familiar with each other." Cao Changyun introduced happily.

"My name is Chen Gong/King Kong, nice to meet you, Elder Cao and Elder Shangguan!" Chen Gong and King Kong also saluted with their fists.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, Fellow Daoist Jin, come, have some tea! When you come to Qianji Sect, treat it like your own home. If you need anything, just let me know."

Several people raised their teacups and took a sip.

"Hmm~ good tea!" Chen Gong couldn't help but praise.

"It's worth it that I've treasured it for so many years now that it's been mentioned by Daoist Chen. Haha."

"I've tasted all the spiritual teas in the Chaos Sea, but I've never tasted tea this good. Elder Cao is very thoughtful."

"Haha, Senior Brother Cao, you don't know that my younger brother has commanded the Chaos Sea for hundreds of years and is the Chairman of the Chaos Nation. What delicacies has he not tasted? There aren't many spiritual teas that can earn his praise."

"Ahaha, I'm extremely honored." Cao Changyun was shocked. He didn't expect the other party to be so powerful.

Chen Gong shrugged, humbly waving his hand as he continued to savor his tea. King Kong remained silent. As a demon beast, he enjoyed drinking and wasn't particularly interested in human tea ceremony culture. He simply guzzled his tea in one gulp, like a cow chewing a peony. They were all accomplished masters, each one free and easy, naturally not dwelling on such details.

"Junior Sister Nangong, I wonder where Liu Xing is now?" After chatting for a while, Elder Cao couldn't help but inquire about Liu Xing's whereabouts.

"I was just about to report this to my senior brother. Sect Leader Liu has already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage. After successfully unifying the Chaos Sea, he ordered us to be the vanguard and come to Zhongzhou to stir up the situation. He will continue to stay in the Chaos Sea in seclusion for a while, taking the opportunity to break through to the middle stage of the Nascent Soul stage. Don't worry, my senior brother, he will be back in a few decades at the shortest, and more than a hundred years at the longest." Nangong Yan explained Liu Xing's situation in just a few words.

"Finally, he's broken through to the Nascent Soul stage! Hahahaha, great! Great! Great!" Cao Changyun laughed and clapped his hands, clearly extremely happy. It seemed as if Liu Xing's breakthrough to the Nascent Soul stage was his dream.

"Senior Sister Nangong, Sect Leader Liu has been in seclusion alone. Now that you are all back, how is his safety..." Shangguan Nan, who had not spoken a word, asked with some concern.

Chen Gong and King Kong smiled slightly after hearing this.

"Hehe, Junior Brother Shangguan, you're worrying too much. You don't know that the three of us can have our current cultivation level thanks to Liu Xing. With his current strength, it's not an exaggeration to say that he is the number one person below the God Transformation Realm. If he doesn't reach the God Transformation Realm, who can hurt him!" Nangong Yan said with a smile.

"Master Liu is so powerful!" Shangguan Nan exclaimed, his face full of disbelief.

Elder Cao also showed surprise on his face. He knew that he was powerful, but he didn't expect it to be so exaggerated.

"Does he want to unify Central China?" Cao Changyun was extremely intelligent and had amazing calculation ability. He immediately thought of a possibility.

"Yes, the Marshal wants to unify the world and rebuild the order of the mortal world! Those who obey me will prosper, and those who defy me will perish!" King Kong suddenly replied. He had commanded troops for many years and had fought wars everywhere. He had an aura that looked down on the world, which made the people present feel nervous.

"Marshal?" Cao Changyun was a little confused. Nangong Yan said that they were promoted thanks to Liu Xing, and now King Kong called Liu Xing the Marshal. He didn't know why he called him such a strange name.

"Senior Brother Cao, Sect Leader Liu has now proclaimed himself the Marshal, and we are all his generals. The Marshal is extremely blessed and has obtained the treasure of the Chaos Tower, which can help us improve our magic power and spiritual awareness." Nangong Yan saw that his senior and junior brothers looked puzzled, so he explained.

"No wonder then. What is the Chaos Tower? Is it really so heaven-defying?"

"Of course, when the Marshal returns, you may have the opportunity to experience the magic of the Chaos Tower." Chen Gong said.

"Are you serious? Then don't I also have hope of a breakthrough?" Shangguan Nan said excitedly.

"Of course it's true. As long as you make some outstanding contributions in the future, the Marshal will definitely open the Chaos Tower Trial for you." Chen Gong said confidently. He glanced at Shangguan Nan and saw his inner restlessness and anxiety. He had long seen a hint of envy and jealousy in Shangguan Nan's eyes when he looked at Nangong Yan. With his high emotional intelligence, he immediately understood what was going on.

"The Marshal is expected to return within a hundred years. During this period, we cannot sit idle. We must open up the situation in Central China and build a strong army. When the Marshal returns, it will be the time to unify the world!" King Kong was the most enthusiastic about the war.
