Chapter 1554: Sharp Knife Squad
There are more than one million pieces of Eight Treasures Bones, which directly absorb the Taiqing Creation Map.
[Name: Taiqing Creation Picture]
[Level: Myth (1/100)]
[Function: The remains of a fairy ant can be used to refine the essence of things.]
Zhang Xuan was greatly surprised when he saw the changes in the Taiqing Creation Diagram.
It turned out to be nothing more than a fairy ant Daoxiang, and it took a long time to refine the essence of high-level spiritual materials.
"Now that it's directly replaced with the remains of the Immortal Ant, won't the tempering speed be extremely fast?!"
He immediately gave a Dragon Scale Dao Pill to the remaining body of the Immortal Ant to eat.
no response.
He gave another one.
Still no response.
Until he gave it the third Dragon Scale Avenue Pill.
The remaining body of the fairy ant finally responded, and soon, a magic pill was discharged from its remains.
Zhang Xuan took it in his hand and was shocked to find that it was actually a second-level Dragon Scale Avenue Pill.
This really gave him a big surprise.
I'm afraid that the entire Dragon Spine Divine Realm may not have this second-level Dragon Scale Avenue Pill.
Three Dragon Scale Avenue Pills in exchange for one second-level Dragon Scale Avenue Pill.
This is really a huge profit.
However, the remaining body of the fairy ant seemed to be still very weak, and it fell into a deep sleep after completing the transaction.
We can only wait until the remaining body of the fairy ant wakes up before we can make the next transaction.
There are three more Taoist pictures at the back: the Picture of the Supreme Dharma, the Picture of Breaking the Ban on Witchcraft, and the Picture of the Holy Moon's Compassionate Light.
Upgrading doesn't mean much to him now, so he temporarily stopped upgrading the Ancient Road Map.
In fact, his Holy Ancient Road Map can also be upgraded.
However, considering that several ancient road maps have just been upgraded, the pressure is already very great.
He stopped thinking about the Holy Ancient Road Map for the time being.
Zhang Xuan originally planned to study the immortal patterns in the Rakshasa Immortal Cauldron carefully.
After all, now that his Soldier Tree Treasure Map has been upgraded, he can bring out two fairy patterns from the Rakshasa Fairyland.
This is not easy!
Once he masters the immortal patterns, he will be able to successfully refine the celestial magical treasure.
He even went a step further and refined the Xuantian treasure, and even had a chance to get a glimpse of the immortal treasure.
However, things cannot always go as we wish.
He has spent most of the past few decades in seclusion.
Whatever tasks there were, he assigned them to several team leaders of the Tenth Squad.
Now the situation has changed again, that is, the 33 strongholds of the Boundary Breaking Army have to retreat again, and this time the retreat requires the fifth stronghold led by Yunxiao Shuizun to deal with the aftermath.
In other words, the monks in the fifth stronghold are needed to withstand the joint attack of the Eight Star Palaces and the Tianxing Divine Realm, and buy time for the monks in the other 32 strongholds to retreat.
This is basically a cannon fodder mission.
However, every time the Boundary Breaking Army retreats, it needs a stronghold to perform this kind of cannon fodder mission.
Zhang Xuan originally thought that Yunxiao Shuizun's fifth stronghold had a Mahayana cultivator as its backer, so it should not be assigned the task of cannon fodder. Unexpectedly, this time during the retreat, it was the fifth stronghold that took on the task of cannon fodder.
If a stronghold were to withstand the attacks of the Eight Star Palaces and the Heavenly Star Divine Realm, at least half of the monks in the stronghold would perish.
As the captain of the tenth team of the fifth stronghold, Zhang Xuan naturally could not withdraw early.
Now that the fifth stronghold has accepted the task of being a cannon fodder, it is impossible for Zhang Xuan to continue his retreat.
If he continued to retreat on the original fifth-grade medium-quality spirit vein and waited for the Tianxing Divine Realm and the Eight Star Palaces to attack, the first one to be caught would probably be him, a thousand-year-old turtle.
Therefore, he had to come out of his long-term seclusion.
What was even more difficult for Zhang Xuan to accept was that his own tenth team was actually appointed by Yunxiao Shuizun as the spearhead team, responsible for the aftermath of the retreat of the entire fifth stronghold.
Zhang Xuan was furious: "Why should my Tenth Squad be the cannon fodder among the cannon fodder? This is unfair!"
He went straight to Yunxiao Shuizun.
Yunxiao Shuizun's response was, "The Tenth Squad has not completed its missions satisfactorily over the past few decades. Furthermore, they have suffered the fewest casualties during these decades of combat, yet their combat power is among the highest of all the squads. They already have four cultivators at the peak of the Void Refinement Realm, and nearly ten at the late Void Refinement Realm. Despite such a high level of combat power, they have repeatedly failed to achieve any success against the other squads at the Fifth Stronghold. The other squads are deeply dissatisfied with the Tenth Squad's approach, and have no choice but to assign them the spearhead mission."
After hearing this, Zhang Xuan was speechless.
In the past few decades, he basically assigned all the wartime tasks of the Tenth Squad directly to the team leaders below, and he did not ask any further questions about how well the team leaders completed the tasks.
What he did in the past was to refine various high-level elixirs and weapons by himself, and then exchange them for military merit points from the members of his team, that's all.
His team was originally built with the six old men from the Mercenary Alliance as the main body, and later absorbed the remnants of other teams intermittently.
These surviving remnants of the defeated army are basically a group of old men. The two groups of old men put together can be said to be like-minded. Everyone feels that they met too late.
When carrying out tasks assigned by the Dragon's Back Temple, run away when you see danger and take advantage when you see opportunity.
Zhang Xuan could imagine the combat style of his tenth team without any investigation.
Now Yunxiao Shuizun has directly assigned the most dangerous task to the Tenth Team. Military orders are like mountains, and Zhang Xuan can do nothing about it.
Since he couldn't refuse, he had to explain this task to each team leader.
After hearing this, all the team leaders were filled with grief.
"Why? Why should we let the Tenth Squad end up last?"
"In the past few decades of battle, has our 10th Squad not bravely advanced every time?"
"Isn't this bullying an honest person? This is unfair, absolutely unfair. There must be some behind-the-scenes manipulation!"
Zhang Xuan glanced at these jumping team leaders and thought to himself, "Come on, how do you usually behave? Don't you have any idea of what's going on?"
These team leaders were filled with righteous indignation and asked Zhang Xuan to go talk to Yunxiao Shuizun. However, Zhang Xuan directly explained to each team leader what happened when he went to Yunxiao Shuizun. This sharp knife mission could not be pushed away at all.
Each team leader wanted the captain to speak again, but Zhang Xuan directly refused and left the party, leaving the team leaders to quarrel.
Now the entire team has to make the final preparations for this battle. It would be great if 20% of the monks in the tenth team can survive.
Zhang Xuan has now entered the late stage of Lianxu, and is carrying 13 original Dao fruits, as well as two late-stage sixth-order monsters, including the Divine Winged Demon Bird and the Fungus Insect King.
In addition, he also has a weapon called the Ten Thousand Layer Demon Tower, which is at the level of a Tongtian Lingbao.
Under his nurturing, the Zhentian Sword almost reached the level of a Tongtian spiritual treasure.
As for weapons of the pseudo-Tongtian Lingbao level, including the Puppet Palace, the Burning Heaven Immortal Net, the Great Dao Dragon Scale Armor, etc., he has dozens of them on him.
He believed that in this war, even if the Tenth Squad was left to finish off the rear, he would definitely have no problem surviving.
