Eternal Sect.
Jun Changxiao sat in the Avenger Hall, carefully listening to Mozu’s next plan.
“Wait.”
After the other party finished describing the city they were preparing to ambush, he suddenly interrupted: “There’s a pattern here.”
Mozu asked in confusion: “What pattern?”
Jun Changxiao walked to the sand table, pointed at the four cities they had successfully captured, then pointed to the fifth city, saying: “Don’t you think when you connect them, it looks like a five-pointed star?”
“This…”
Mozu observed carefully and said in surprise: “It really does look a bit like one.”
“…”
Jun Changxiao was speechless.
From this guy’s expression, it seemed that when choosing cities, he had been completely random, coincidentally creating a sense of pattern.
Mozu’s selection of cities had gone through rigorous calculations. As for the hidden pentagonal shape, that was purely accidental. If Dog Sheng hadn’t pointed it out, he wouldn’t have noticed it himself.
“What do you mean?”
“Too obvious. Change the city.”
Jun Changxiao worried that the Star Spirit Realm’s forces might realize this pattern and set up a trap at the city where the fifth point would be, waiting for everyone to walk right into their net.
His guess was correct.
Lord Yin had already led the Law Enforcement Hall there.
Based on the unintentionally formed pentagonal pattern, he was confident he would capture all the rebels in one sweep.
“Alright.”
Mozu said: “Then let’s change it.”
Jun Changxiao pointed to a reasonably sized city on the sand table, saying: “How about we attack this one?”
“…”
Mozu’s expression became somewhat blank.
For no other reason—the city Jun Changxiao chose was called Great Sky City.
The Star Spirit Realm had a total of ten great provinces, and Great Sky City was the capital of one of the ten provinces, Great Sky Province.
Going to attack a provincial capital was rather audacious!
“If we make a move on a provincial capital, we’ll definitely alert the Star Spirit Realm’s upper echelon.” Mozu said with considerable worry.
Capturing a military stronghold had yielded quite a bit in martial arts resources and corpse servants, but ultimately he still didn’t have the courage to target a provincial capital. After all, the level was simply too high—they needed to develop more first.
“After making four consecutive strikes, do you think the Star Spirit Realm’s upper echelon hasn’t been alerted?” Jun Changxiao asked.
“…”
Mozu fell silent.
As long as the other side weren’t fools, they definitely couldn’t sit still anymore.
“Actually.”
Jun Changxiao said: “Now that things have developed to this point, whether the Star Spirit Realm has been alerted doesn’t matter anymore. What we can do is fight them to the end.”
“Fight to the death!” Mozu said through gritted teeth.
These years of struggling to survive like a slave had accumulated endless fury. Now that they had the ability to contend with them, they must destroy the other side.
Me!
Mozu!
Am not to be trifled with!
Regarding the Star Spirit Realm, he had a fierce determination with nowhere to vent. Regarding Jun Changxiao, sorry… he was as timid as a dog.
“It’s decided.”
Jun Changxiao slapped his thigh, saying: “We’ll attack this provincial capital.”
…
“Bang bang bang!”
In the Forging Hall’s production workshop, pieces of brand-new equipment and weapons were successively taking shape, based on technology provided by the Star Spirit Realm and modified by Fan Yezi.
“Clack clack clack!”
In the Array Hall’s production workshop, new model Dark Destroyers were being successively assembled through the workers’ efforts.
Without a doubt, plundering a military base for resources had elevated the Eternal Sect’s equipment and mecha to another level.
“Clack!”
Jun Changxiao donned the new battle armor, clenching his ten fingers tightly together, saying with satisfaction: “Not bad.”
“Sect Master.”
Fan Yezi smiled: “With the current level of mecha, even a Core Rotation Realm martial artist wearing it would have strength no weaker than a lower-level Truth Seeking Realm cultivator.”
“Oh?”
Jun Changxiao asked in surprise: “That strong?”
Core Rotation Realm and Truth Seeking Realm were separated by an entire major realm. To make up for it with just equipment amplification was quite audacious.
“What about weapons?”
“How’s the research coming along?”
“Snap!”
Fan Yezi retrieved from his spatial ring a weapon resembling a fully automatic rifle, then placed it on the table, smiling: “This is what I modified based on the AK47.”
“…”
The corner of Jun Changxiao’s mouth twitched slightly.
My Eternal Sect’s Forging Hall master, instead of properly researching swords, spears, and halberds, is here researching firearms.
The System said: “Isn’t it because you led him astray!”
“Zuiji.”
Jun Changxiao called out loudly: “Test fire.”
“Yes!”
Xiao Zuiji appeared before them out of nowhere, then picked up the new model rifle. After loading the bullets with a clack clack, he walked out of the workshop, aimed at a mountain peak a thousand zhang away, and decisively pulled the trigger.
Jing Zhixiao’s driving skills were maxed out.
In shooting, Xiao Zuiji had also long been maxed out.
“Bang—”
A tremendous sound, like cannon fire.
In slow motion, flames burst from the gun barrel. The instant the bullet condensed from high-grade spirit stones shot out, centered on Xiao Zuiji, energy fluctuations occurred, stirring up layers of dust.
He still remembered when he first used this type of firearm—unable to withstand the recoil, he would either ascend to heaven or hang himself from a tree. Now standing steady as Mount Tai, he truly was no longer that young man from before.
“Boom!”
The bullet pierced through, directly leveling the mountain peak.
A rifle delivering cannon-level damage—this was rather audacious.
“Not bad.”
Jun Changxiao nodded with satisfaction and ordered: “Mass-produce this type of weapon as quickly as possible. Strive to equip every Avenger with one.”
“No problem!”
Fan Yezi smiled.
However, after Jun Changxiao left, he finally snapped back to reality and roared while holding his head: “With so many Avengers, how long will it take me to make them all!”
“Sect Master.”
Li Luoqiu came to the hall, saying: “We’ve rescued another few thousand corpse servants and have already handed them over to the Medical Hall for treatment.”
Mozu needed more Avengers to join and contend with the entire Star Spirit Realm. But relying solely on ambushing cities to plunder ultimately carried risks, so Jun Changxiao ordered the Drizzle Hall to infiltrate various major cities when they had time and rescue corpse servants with decent strength.
“This is rescuing?”
The System said speechlessly: “This is snatching, okay!”
The Drizzle Hall’s efficiency was quite high. Almost every few days they would snatch… would rescue anywhere from several hundred to several thousand corpse servants, allowing them to shed their slave label and gloriously become Avengers.
…
Half a year.
A full half year.
Mozu took no action.
He was waiting for Jun Changxiao’s order, waiting to attack a provincial capital.
Honestly.
Mozu was under tremendous pressure now.
A provincial capital—there were definitely experts as numerous as clouds inside. Leading people to attack might mean not coming back.
“Don’t worry.”
Jun Changxiao said: “This seat doesn’t do things without certainty.”
“…”
Mozu asked: “When do we strike?”
“Tonight.”
“Ah?”
…
That very night.
The entire Eternal Sect was brightly lit, with all major halls actively preparing.
“Quick! Quick!”
At the War Cavalry Hall’s mountain peak, disciples in full armor ran out, then stood in neat formation on the training ground. Behind them were newly modified Dark Destroyers—the scene was extremely grand.
“Stomp!”
“Stomp!”
At the Spirit Beast Hall, Purple Scale Demon King swaggered out, not forgetting to remove his school uniform, revealing robust muscles and sexy red underwear.
The camera turned to the training ground.
Niu Lao and other hall leaders stood in neat formation.
Their eyes flashed with intense battle intent, all… bare-chested wearing only shorts.
They had just received word.
There would be an important operation soon.
That being the case.
Why was the Spirit Beast Hall side all not wearing clothes? For no other reason—they were afraid that during the fight they’d damage their school uniforms and Yuan Gongzi would take the opportunity to deduct beast cores.
All the major halls were actively preparing—either starting up mechas or donning battle armor. Only on Spirit Beast Peak was a group of demon beasts stark naked. That scene was truly extremely dissonant.
“The Sect Master said.”
Ah Zi said seriously: “This time we’ll attack the Star Spirit Realm’s provincial capital. If our Spirit Beast Hall performs outstandingly, next month’s beast cores will be super doubled.”
The beasts’ eyes lit up.
“So.”
Ah Zi roared loudly: “For this battle, you all must give it your damned all! For this battle, we must fight to establish the Spirit Beast Hall’s reputation!”
“Yes!”
The beasts roared, their voices shaking the wilds.
“Snap!”
The character for ‘Beast’ on the hall’s plaque couldn’t withstand it and instantly fell off.
At this moment, Jun Changxiao’s voice came through the loudspeaker: “Full-scale assault!”
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
In just an instant, the prepared Eternal Sect disciples from each peak and hall vanished from their original positions. When the camera cut to the Star Spirit Realm, cut to Great Sky City, densely packed starry sky warships, densely packed mechas, densely packed soldiers completely surrounded this capital city.
“Holy crap!”
Mozu’s eyes nearly popped out.
This formation, this momentum—simply strong as hell!
