Chapter 1704 Learning Runes and Military Discipline

I don’t know what realm Dieyi has reached now. If she waits until she reaches the late stage of fusion, she should be able to play a role in breaking the formation.

Thinking of this, Gu Changhuan felt a little pity.

It’s a pity that Dieyi’s cultivation level was not high when she joined the Gu family. If she had the same fusion level as Feihan or Hua Wu, Gu Changhuan would definitely consider helping her advance to the Mahayana stage first.

After all, geniuses like her or Peng Liantian are rare in the world.

If Dieyi can advance to the Mahayana stage, the two of them can save him a lot of time by studying the formation together.

While Gu Changhuan continued to study the formation to control the Barbarian God Ruins, several Mahayana masters including Hua Wu and Chen Ye received the jade slips sent by the little flower fairy.

Fei Han really likes the little flower fairy. He holds her high and lets her sit on his shoulders. He looks up and asks her:

"What good thing did Hua Hua send?"

The little flower fairy looked around curiously at the different view from her usual view, and did not forget to answer:

"My brother sent it to me. He said to let the uncles and sisters have a look.

Well, it will be useful in a hundred years at most."

This hundred years should refer to the hundred years in the outside world, right?

Fei Han thought so and nodded readily,

"Okay!

Uncle got it!"

Hehe, Hua Hua calls him uncle and Gu Chang Huan brother, so he is one generation higher than Gu Chang Huan.

Fei Han was secretly happy. He took the little flower fairy to play in the Bei Gu Mountains for several days before sending it back to the little flower fairy in person.

"It's so relaxing to be with children!"

After returning to his cave, Fei Han sighed so.

After spending a few days with Huahua, the numbness and slowness accumulated in the Mitian Realm for thousands of years were swept away, which was more effective than any spiritual tea that could eliminate fatigue and hidden injuries.

He sighed and took out the jade slip sent by Huahua.

Then his eyes went dark.

What kind of strange rune is this?

It seems that I have never seen it before.

Feihan took a deep breath and read it slowly, and saw the explanation of these runes engraved by Gu Changhuan.

"So that's it, this is the rune of the barbarians!

But why do I have to learn the formation?

It's really terrible."

Feihan began to worry.

As for the formation, he knows a little bit. After all, he is a senior manager of the Chamber of Commerce and a Mahayana cultivator. His level of breaking the formation is at least the seventh level, and his level of appreciating the formation is even higher.

But drawing and engraving the formation, Feihan is not very good at it.

But fortunately, Gu Changhuan didn't want Fei Han and the others to become ninth-level formation masters. As long as they understand a little bit, they will be more comfortable when breaking the formation later.

Compared with Fei Han's headache, Hua Wu and Chen Ye were more relaxed. Although their formation attainments were not as high as those of alchemy and talisman drawing, they could still set up formations and break formations.

But compared with the formations recorded in the jade slips, Chen Ye was obviously more interested in the runes of the barbarians.

"The barbarians were so powerful in the past, and the power of the runes they invented must not be underestimated!

When I learn these runes, maybe my attainments in spiritual talismans can be compared with Senior Zhen Lingzi!"

Chen Ye said excitedly.

Not long after he advanced to the Mahayana stage, Gu Changhuan gave all the spiritual talisman inheritance of Zhen Lingzi to Chen Ye, asking him to study and inherit them well, which made Chen Ye feel like he had found a treasure; and now these barbarian runes are another treasure to be developed.

Hua Wu looked at the jade slip in her hand and nodded slowly in reply,

"Yeah, yeah, yeah, you're the best."

Chen Ye was dissatisfied,

"Sister, you're too perfunctory."

Has this kid become more and more difficult to deal with recently?

With a smile in her eyes, Hua Wu sat up from the couch and walked to Chen Ye, holding his face full of unhappiness and kissing him.

After being kissed, Chen Ye suddenly lost his emotions.

He raised his head and stretched out his hands to hug Hua Wu's waist, and soon the room was filled with beautiful spring scenery again.

As for when to study the jade slip given by Gu Changhuan, well, there is no rush for this moment.

Compared to the ambiguous spring scenery in the two people's cave, the atmosphere in Taiji Palace is always so solemn and formal.

Gu Qingqing, who has come out of retreat, is now checking the list and total number of monks in the East Gu Dynasty army and the expenses of these years with Gu Qingxuan.

In less than 150 years, the number of monks in the East Gu Dynasty army has reached the million mark!

Although there are more than 10 million independent cultivators in the Land of Spiritual Destruction, the requirements of the Donggu Dynasty's army are quite high, so not every independent cultivator has the opportunity to join the army; if the criteria are relaxed, it is possible to gather a 5 million cultivator army within a hundred years.

However, if this is the case, it is difficult to guarantee the quality and combat effectiveness of the army, and the Donggu Dynasty's finances cannot afford it.

In addition, the Gu family has no need to mobilize troops to go to war now, so the army at the beginning must be more refined than large.

When Gu Changhuan and others break the formation and go to war with the alien race, the army of the Donggu Dynasty will definitely expand.

But that's all later.

At present, the fiscal revenue of the entire Donggu Dynasty can only support a maximum of 2 million professional cultivators.

Because of the high threshold of the army, the special salary distribution, the fixed free spiritual vein habitat, and the possibility of obtaining advancement opportunities, etc., in the current Land of Spiritual Destruction, if a independent cultivator becomes a member of the Gudao Dynasty army, it will attract the envy of other independent cultivators.

However, joining the army is not entirely beneficial. Many casual cultivators who are used to freedom will still feel a little uncomfortable after joining the army.

For example, after joining the army, you can no longer come and go freely as before. Except for normal rest days, you must report to the army station and leave the army only after approval; if you suddenly leave the army without reason, it will be regarded as rebellion, and you will be wanted and hunted by the entire Donggu Dynasty.

The freedom of coming and going is restricted, which makes many cultivators feel very uncomfortable. Even many families and sects do not have such strict requirements for their clansmen.

Another thing is that after joining the army, you must not kill cultivators in the Donggu Dynasty without reason. Of course, although this requirement is also in the military regulations, no cultivator has been punished for it so far.

After all, it is impossible for you to ask cultivators not to fight with others. Even if the Gu family is now the royal family of the Donggu Dynasty, isn’t the army formed for a larger-scale fight in the future?

In addition to these two points, the Donggu Dynasty’s immortal army has many other rules, which can be called strict in general.

But despite this, many cultivators still want to join the Donggu Dynasty's army.

Because although the rules of the army are strict, the benefits of joining the army are also obvious.

Especially for those independent cultivators with families and children, after joining the army, they can also apply for their descendants to join the Donggu Dynasty's Xiuxian Academy for free, which is a win-win situation!
