The Great Xia Dynasty's Longevity Begins with Connecting to the Swallowed Starry Sky

Guo Jing asked, "After this support mission is completed, is there another opportunity for replenishment?"

What he's thinking about now is whether this opportunity for supplementation exists.

So we used it without hesitation and then went to provide support.

It's not difficult and there's basically no danger.

But you can earn a lot.

It's not just about contribution, but many other things.

It can be said that Qinghewan was willing to give up resources to save everyone's lives.

This idea is actually quite correct. As long as everyone's lives can be preserved, more and more martial artists and Taoist cultivators will want to come here.

It's like interest compounding, or like a snowball rolling downhill; Qinghewan's development will only get better and better.

Although they may not seem to earn much in the short term, they have preserved their vitality, which is beneficial for development in the long run.

Guo Jing didn't know about other places, but this place was definitely the best.

If one cannot obtain the opportunity to replenish their true energy, then one needs to reconsider.

One of the team members, clearly familiar with the rules here, quickly replied, "It's given. Qinghe Bay is very generous; as long as you complete a stage of the mission, they'll give you a boost of true energy."

Actually, even if you don't complete the task, you can still borrow money to take out this opportunity.

However, a rather high fee will need to be paid later.

But everyone is quite willing, and this opportunity can be reserved.

As long as you're alive, as long as you come back, this opportunity will come true.

These rules are excellent. As long as no one messes things up, it would be strange if this place didn't develop.

Guo Jing pondered for a moment and then said, "In that case, I think we should go and provide support."

This is not only about earning resources for yourself, but also about expanding your network.

Who knows when we might need someone's help?

They now have the upper hand and seem to need no one's help.

But life is unpredictable, and misfortune can strike at any time.

All the team members agreed.

Guo Jing and Hong Qigong recovered relatively quickly, so they did not need any supplements.

They also possessed a great deal of true energy. Before their ascension, Qin Hao had specially taught them a method for cultivating hidden meridians.

Guo Jing has found the snow-capped mountain behind his waist and has basically completed his cultivation.

Therefore, his true energy quantity is twice that of the same period, and the quality of his true energy has also improved significantly.

As a result, in the battle just now, Guo Jing didn't even use half of the amount of true energy he had before it was increased.

In other words, he still retained three-quarters of his true energy.

And now it is still slowly recovering.

This is the benefit of his new Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms: as long as he stands on the ground, he has no worries about lacking true energy.

Moreover, its defensive capabilities will also increase significantly.

Huang Yaoshi uses area-of-effect attacks as a support, which consumes a lot of his true energy.

He also took some pills to restore his true energy, which was the only way to ensure the use of his true energy.

He hadn't been very proactive in his search for the snow-capped mountains behind his waist; he wanted to do more research on his own.

After all, knowledge comes at a price.

Guo Jing learned from his master because it was a traditional master-disciple relationship, so it didn't cost him any money.

Huang Yaoshi and Qin Hao had a good relationship, but personal friendship was one thing, and they were from two different sects.

Therefore, he has to pay a certain price.

Huang Yaoshi paid to buy the location of the snow mountain behind Yaohou, but as for how to develop it, he would have to figure it out himself.

"Next, it seems we'll have to spend some contribution points to buy the location of this snow-capped mountain behind the waist, as well as the cultivation method."

He wasn't in a hurry before, but now that he needs it, he's starting to get anxious.

Moreover, he was also thinking of buying it outright so that he could pass it on to the disciples of Peach Blossom Island in the future.

This thing, if purchased by an individual, can only be practiced by that individual.

He could describe the existence of the snow-capped mountains behind his waist, but he couldn't tell others how to find and develop them.

Fortunately, Huang Yaoshi himself was an alchemist, so he only needed to buy some raw materials to refine pills.

In addition, back in the world of Legend of the Condor Heroes, he also had a way to purchase elixirs from the Quanzhen Sect.

Compared to the contribution and merit gained after the battle, this sacrifice is nothing.

He was a support character capable of dealing damage to multiple enemies. He later asked the Old Rascal, who had killed a significant number of demons, but had earned fewer merits than him.

Huang Yaoshi then understood that the formation spirit had included his contributions in the calculations.

Then, the merits accumulated here are calculated and distributed accordingly.

They were newcomers and didn't quite understand.

The others, however, are quite clear-headed.

But none of these people had any objections.

After all, with Huang Yaoshi's assistance, they gained more merit.

You can still accept more missions now.

Huang Yaoshi decisively used the function to restore his true energy. He was still a little curious, wondering how this function was implemented.

Then, Huang Yaoshi submitted his application on the SkyNet platform.

Before I could even finish wondering, I saw a beam of starlight fall from the sky above.

This beam of light did not give Huang Yaoshi a sense of terror, and although his spiritual sense detected it, the speed was too fast.

The speed of light is too fast.

The light enveloped Huang Yaoshi in an instant, but it also disappeared very quickly.

In just a moment, it had vanished.

This?
Huang Yaoshi immediately felt that the true energy in his body was constantly being restored.

As the starlight entered his body, his own internal energy began to continuously absorb the power of the stars.

And this power of the stars was so harmonious, just like the true energy that originally belonged to him.

In just a few breaths, his true energy was largely restored.

Moreover, the remaining stellar power was being rapidly absorbed and assimilated by his own true energy, becoming his own true energy.

The quality of that stellar power was actually much better than his own true energy.

"this?"

The old man was taken aback: "What's wrong? The effect isn't good?"

They had already learned from the SkyNet that this was the Star Array of Qinghe Bay, which could be used not only to defeat enemies but also to replenish everyone's supplies.

Some people say, wouldn't it be better to just use a large formation to wear down the demon realm's attack?
It would be redundant to have to expend manpower and then use the power of the stars to replenish and restore it.

Taking a detour only led to the same result.

But Guo Jing felt that it was necessary for Qinghe Bay to do this.

If we don't do this, how can we train the people of Qinghe Bay, and even the entire Qianyang Realm?
It's impossible for Qianyang Realm to be defended by just one large formation.

Unbeknownst to them, there were beings from another celestial realm watching them with predatory intent.

The Demon Realm alone is enough to instill fear and leave people feeling helpless.

This is a battle we must fight; there is no other outcome.

It wasn't that no one offered to lead the way; they all simply merged into the Demon Realm.

But anyone with even a little knowledge of the Demon Realm knows that it's impossible to directly integrate into it.

The demon realm will only select a few outstanding individuals to join and replenish its manpower.

The rest of the people will be plundered by the people of the Demon Realm and become resources for the evolution of the Demon Race.

They won't even spare the soul; perhaps only a tiny bit of true spirit can escape.

Sometimes, even the true spirit cannot escape it.

If in a normal world there is both good and evil, then the demon realm represents the most extreme form of evil in this world.

There is only worse here, no worst.

“I’ve recovered, you old rascal. You killed a lot of demons using the Ambidextrous Technique, but it also consumed a lot of energy. Even though you’ve learned some methods to replenish your energy, it still can’t compare to pills and this technique. If you want to earn more merit points, you have to be willing to spend them. Anyway, you’ll have another chance after you finish the mission, so use it when you need to.”

The Old Urchin took Huang Yaoshi's words to heart.

Although he still has a lot of jade honey, it can also be used to restore his true energy.

However, that stuff is quite precious. If used to refine other pills, it would be much more valuable than the Qi-restoring pill.

Moreover, jade honey can also heal wounds and restore vital energy, but this is just a minor, insignificant effect.

Using it to restore one's true energy is like using a sledgehammer to crack a nut.

As for using jade bees to fight the enemy?

It did have some effect; those jade bees also possessed the strength of the first realm and were close to breaking through.

Taking it out did have some effect.

However, compared to the production attributes of the Jade Bee, this small contribution is negligible in terms of the merit points earned.

It is far less effective than using jade bees to collect nectar and make honey.

Several more beams of starlight fell, and Guo Jing's team had recovered to about 70-80% of its previous strength.

"Alright, from now on, follow my instructions. We'll head north first..."

The tasks assigned by the spirit array should have been within their capabilities.

The reason some teams finished so quickly is that they were able to perform at a higher level than average, which is why they were able to finish so fast.

Some people performed at a lower level, so they were slower.

At this point, it's necessary for those with higher skill levels to step up and perform.

The level of true qi is average, but some people can perform at half the level, while others can even exceed it.

Many of the people here seem to have been here before; the spirit array has records of them, and they are evenly distributed.

Some people may be visiting for the first time, so the spirit of the formation can only assign people according to their level of true energy.

Soon, Huang Yaoshi's "The Song of the Rising Tide of the Blue Sea" began to play again.

Guo Jing was no longer the same as before, only knowing how to act recklessly.

Over the years of commanding battles, Guo Jing's military talent has been gradually cultivated.

It must be said that Guo Jing was quite talented in military strategy.

In less than fifteen minutes, Guo Jing and his team had already helped two other teams.

Next, both squads were freed up.

However, not everyone is willing to continue taking on missions. Although their true energy can help the great formation recover, their mental strength is somewhat strained.

If the fighting continues, mistakes are very likely to occur.

Although the survival rate is high in Qinghe Bay, there are still some that die.

Because some people get carried away and only see these achievements, but fail to see their own situation.

And the demons are the best at finding your weaknesses.

If your emotions or state of mind are not good.

They can then discover and exploit this vulnerability, continuously expanding it.

Their eventual fate speaks volumes.

Despite repeated reminders from Qinghewan, some people still acted impulsively.

Even if you manage to stop this group of people now, you won't be able to stop them later.

Good words can't persuade a damn ghost.

Guo Jing then encountered a group of such martial artists.

"These gentlemen, you should take a good rest and recover."

Unfortunately, I couldn't bring myself to offer any words of persuasion.

The squad members looked at Guo Jing and said, "Brother, you must have earned quite a few merits, right? The battlefield is so vast, you can't earn them all."

Guo Jing was almost driven mad with anger.

He just couldn't bear to see this small team of people go to their deaths. And yet, he was still subtly criticized.

Guo Jing in the past certainly wouldn't have been able to tell, but after more than a hundred years of fighting, Guo Jing isn't stupid.

How could he not understand what this person was saying at this moment?

Forget it, it’s hard to persuade a damn ghost with kind words.

"Guo Jing, that's enough, stop trying to persuade me."

Everyone tried to persuade Guo Jing not to worry about it.

Guo Jing thought about it for a moment, then nodded and agreed.

In this kind of situation, he can't tie people up, and if they really want to commit suicide, he can't persuade them otherwise.

Guo Jing turned to his teammates and asked, "Isn't the formation spirit going to do anything about it?"

The team members shook their heads: "We can't control them, but the spirit will assign them support locations based on their situation. If it really doesn't work, the spirit will refuse to issue the mission. They might force themselves to complete the mission, but even if they complete the mission, the spirit won't acknowledge it and won't award them merit points."

"What about these people?"

"They must have had a mental breakdown. In Qinghewan, a small portion of the one in a thousand deaths is attributable to this group."

Guo Jing was speechless, but there was nothing he could do.

Just then, another sharp cry rang out.

Guo Jing was taken aback: "What is this?"

"This must mean that an elite demon army has come out."

Previously, the brands that came out were all off-brand.

They're probably like these temporary teams, with some experts and some average ones.

The Demon Realm is also a world of intelligent beings. The Demon Race is quite intelligent, and may even be more intelligent than the Human Race.

However, this world is the most evil place in the world, and their ultimate goal is to devour all the worlds, including the heavens.

They hate all positive aspects of the world.

Guo Jing was slightly worried. In his line of sight, there were at least three thousand demons.

The various types of keratin on its body have indeed decreased significantly, and its evolution is better than anything I've encountered before.

This indeed proves that the higher the level of the demon race, the more it tends to transform into a normal human form.

They wore exquisitely crafted armor, clearly high-quality standard equipment.

He also saw that his own side also had soldiers, dividing each battlefield and guarding the outside; the armor worn by those soldiers was also quite good.

However, compared to the demons, they are far inferior.

There's nothing we can do; after all, it's a world on par with the Celestial Realm.

The level of weapon crafting here is quite high.

"The reserves are on the field."

"It's the Azure Dragon Legion today, no need to worry."

Qinghe Bay has five major military units, each named after a mythical beast.

Each military unit has its own methods.

The Azure Dragon Legion also possesses the Azure Dragon totem flag, which is an extremely powerful military treasure.

"What is that?" Guo Jing asked curiously.

The world of Legend of the Condor Heroes is developing too slowly; the military strategists haven't even begun their training yet.

The military strategists of Qianyang have their own system.

This system originated from Taoism, or rather, they are different paths leading to the same goal.
The Azure Dragon of the East, associated with the elements of Jia and Yi wood, is most adept at healing.

Therefore, the members of the Azure Dragon Legion are fearless in the face of death.

Their armor was made of a kind of spirit wood, which best matched the wood element of Jia and Yi.

The treatment was even more effective.

Guo Jing was somewhat dumbfounded; these members of the Azure Dragon Legion were a bit crazy when they fought.

The squad member next to him explained, "The Azure Dragon Legion's armor has an array set up inside, which originally contained a lot of healing spells."

If they are injured, the armor will provide treatment immediately.

In addition, the great formation would slowly replenish the spiritual power of the Jia and Yi wood within the armor, so they wouldn't die anyway. If they couldn't be killed by a single blow, then it would be the enemy who would die.

So it really is a bit crazy.

Similar to the Azure Dragon Legion is the Black Tortoise Legion.

The members of this Xuanwu Legion have strong defenses; their earth-attribute armor gives them a similar effect to the Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms when they stand on the ground.

This was originally deduced by Qin Hao, so naturally he included it.

It's normal that they're somewhat similar.

Although the other five elements also have healing spells, Qin Hao naturally arranged them all.

However, Jia and Yi wood, and Ren and Gui water are still the most effective at healing.

Guo Jing thought that the battle was over for the day, as such a large-scale battle didn't happen every day.

Their mission will most likely still be to fight those wild demons.

Regular military units like these still need to be used to resist.

The military corps can unite everyone's strength; in the face of the military corps, an individual's strength is too insignificant.

This is actually an application of a magic array.

Moreover, the secret techniques of military strategy can unite the power of all the soldiers in this army into one, doubling the effect.

Unexpectedly, several more legions from the Demon Realm followed, just like the previous ones.

Guo Jing exclaimed, "There are just too many elite troops in the Demon Realm!"

Are we just going to throw our lives away like this?

why?

But the squad members shook their heads: "This is actually just a regular legion, not an elite force at all."

Moreover, they came here, of course, to gain an environmental advantage.

This place has become a shared territory between the Qianyang Realm and the Demon Realm. On the Qianyang Realm side, Qinghe Bay has gained an initial advantage.

This is also the advantage of being passively invaded; at least there are some local advantages and first-mover advantages.

Of course, the Demon Realm is much larger and sends over a lot of demonic energy. Once it becomes tainted, it will no longer be an advantage.

But this great formation?
Guo Jing then realized that the demons he had previously slain had all disappeared.

It seems that it was taken away by the power of the formation, or some other arrangement.

The remaining demonic aura has been gradually purified.

For some reason, Guo Jing felt that the power of this great formation could be completely purified in an instant.

But it slowed things down, or rather, it was like slowly boiling a frog in lukewarm water.

No matter how many demons came from the other side, it seemed like they would soon break down the great formation.

But the formation remained sturdy, stuck, as if it were on the verge of collapse no matter how much pressure it was under.

Well, my master is quite cunning.

"It's over, the Demon Realm has deployed its elite troops."

One of the team members shouted.

Guo Jing quickly looked over and saw a new army unit emerging.

Their evolutionary process is more complete, and they didn't walk in on their own.

Instead, they rode on a mount.

The mount appeared to be a horse, but it had a dragon's head.

But this dragon head looks a bit scary.

"That's a Demon Dragon Horse, possessing Demon Dragon bloodline, its bloodline is extremely terrifying."

Guo Jing saw that these demonic dragon horses were very fast and had extremely strong defense.

The squads that were blocking the way were killed before they could even hold out for a moment.

This is an accident, and it accounts for a relatively large portion of the mortality rate.

Brutal, too brutal.

However, the Azure Dragon Legion was not intimidated, but they did not rush forward directly.

Does it not seem so crazy?

Guo Jing saw them make a strange gesture, and then countless vines grew out in front of the Demon Dragon Horse Legion.

Soon, a wall formed by vines was created.

boom.

A loud impact was heard, but the vines clearly withstood the test and did not collapse immediately.

Moreover, these vines are still growing.

However, such passive defense is of little use in the overall situation.

"How to do?"

"Am I going to die here today?"

"The Azure Dragon Legion is still too immature, after all, it has only been established for a few years?"

"It's over, there's no way out. Why won't Qinghe Bay let us retreat?"

"Retreat? Where to retreat to? If Qinghe Bay can't hold back, this demonic tide will instantly sweep through Qinghe Bay, and then the entire Qianyang Realm will be engulfed in the demonic tide."

"We must stop it."

"Wait, what is that?"

One pessimistic voice after another came from nearby. Guo Jing didn't know who it was, but there were quite a few people around.

Even the small teams that were still fighting against the demons were starting to lose ground.

This is the effect of momentum.

With such momentum, everything you do will be twice as effective with half the effort.

However, if you are intimidated and your momentum weakens, you'll be lucky to be able to exert even 30% of your strength.

How could they possibly succeed in that situation?

Guo Jing shook his head; he had not lost faith.

Half of it was because I trusted Qin Hao, my master, who was very mysterious.

They've all become immortals now, so this scene is nothing more than a small spectacle.

With a flick of his finger, the immortal could easily defeat not only the Demon Dragon Horse Legion, but even a more elite legion in an instant.

However, this bargaining chip cannot be used.

The presence of immortals now hidden will be even more useful for the future of Qinghe Bay.

Another point is that Guo Jing knows that if his morale is low, he won't be able to perform at his best.

The brave wins when we meet on a narrow road.

Guo Jing is a seasoned veteran who has fought for over a hundred years; how could he not know these things?

But at that moment, a team member exclaimed in surprise.

Guo Jing turned around and saw a large group of Taoist-clad personnel suddenly appear on a battlefield.

That is?

What kind of Taoist cultivation?
Are those cannons next to them?
Cannons also exist in the world of Legend of the Condor Heroes, and they are considered a major weapon for defending cities.

When monsters attack the city, cannon fire is extremely effective.

But once the cannons roar, gold flows in like water.

It doesn't work well.

But the effect is really good.

"put."

With a command from the leader in Taoist attire, the flag was waved.

Those cannons were constantly charging, and they even emitted faint glows.

At that moment, beams of light shot into the sky. (End of Chapter)
