Cultivation begins with separation.

Chapter 142 Threat
If you dig a hole to go underground, you may encounter many difficulties along the way, and it will take a long time.

Therefore, the underground world is usually reached through crypts.

The crypt is like an underground undercurrent.

However, it is not water that flows in the crypt.

Before the Immortal Kingdom, most of the caves in the Tiandu Spirit Realm were suppressed by powerful families or sects. Even so, there were still many unknown caves or caves with insufficient suppression power, and many underground creatures emerged from them to wreak havoc on the earth.

After the establishment of the Immortal Official, the underground creatures took the initiative to seal the cave.

One hundred thousand years later, the Immortal Kingdom was apparently ready to start managing the underground world step by step.

The crypt was reopened by the Immortal Kingdom.

Entering a water stream is risky, let alone a crypt with the ability to teleport.

Yi Dong looked at the huge vortex space in front of him that was wrapped in a formation, and felt that this underground cave might be caused by the gravity of the stars.

Perhaps it is because these underground caves can concentrate the earth's gravity that the surface gravity of the Tiandu Spiritual Realm, which is as huge as a star-like life planet, is so abnormal.

Just when Yi Dong was thinking about how to study this gravity.

Quan Sanbao walked not far away.

"Friend Yi, we have already handed over to the people guarding the crypt. Shall we go down now?"

"No rush, just wait."

For the next ten days, Yi Dong continued to study this gravity.

It was discovered that this gravity was so strong that it could even distort space, however, perhaps like the calm eye of a tornado.

This powerful gravitational torrent also has some slightly calmer gravitational channels.

The fairyland, and even the underground creatures before the fairyland, used various methods to borrow those gravitational channels.

However, if there is any mistake in this process, the object will be torn into powder by the gravity that is so strong that it can distort space.

"That is to say, if I have bad luck, my life may end here."

Yi Dong was already thinking about whether he should run away.

What we are facing now are visible risks.

However, I heard that the ascension passage leading to the Xuankong Realm has been temporarily closed, and it is obviously not safe underground in the Lijiang River.

In other words, his retreat route was basically blocked.

"Friend Yi, is it time to enter the crypt?"

"No rush. No one knows what the situation is down there. Go and urge for the logistics supplies. The more you bring, the better."

After all, immortal cultivators cannot survive on air. Now in times of war, they have elixirs and ordinary spiritual rice and other supplies.

Since there is no storage device, it is best to carry pills that are small and relatively easy to store.

Yi Dong naturally prepared a lot of medicinal pills.

However, most of those elixirs were prepared by Zijin Mountain, and Pingyuan County only allocated a small part of the elixirs. There were a lot of materials such as spiritual rice and even ordinary rice.

The elixirs from Zijin Mountain are naturally used by the Yi family’s cultivators.

Yidong doesn’t intend to let others use the things in his magic space.

The various supplies carried by the militia are enough to last for a year, but Yi Dong feels it is not safe, so he asks Quan Sanbao to urge the logistics.

On the surface, Yi Dong asked Quan Sanbao to urge them, but privately he instructed the cultivators in the logistics department of the Yi family to instruct the seven cultivators in charge of logistics to delay time as much as possible.

If the supplies can be pulled on the ground, there is no need for flying boats; if the supplies can be walked, there is no need to run.

Anyway, Yi Dong plans to stay here for now.

After Zhu Maorong entered the underground world, he just sent some cannon fodder down there, and he himself would just give remote commands from here.

However, things did not go as Yi Dong wished.

After Yi Dong found various excuses to shirk his responsibilities, Zhu Maorong simply sent three county militias that were much weaker than Xia County's to come.

The militias in these three counties are very interesting. The position of general is nominal, and the real power of the militia is held by the War Command Center Committee.

The members of this war command committee are basically from aristocratic families.

As for why they are not all from aristocratic families, it is because after the Taoist Academy expanded its enrollment, modern cultivators appeared among the group of independent cultivators.

Let’s not talk about the actual combat capabilities of those cultivators in the intermediate Taoist academies. Each of them relies on the assistance of various magical instruments of cultivation and is either a master of alchemy or a master of refining instruments.

No matter how much water these "masters" have, at least they are more reliable than the alchemy masters like Gu Xiu who only rely on their feelings, and more professional than the weapon refining masters who can only refine "alloy" magic weapons and magic treasures.

Those committee members are representatives of various masters and families.

These three militias made Yi Dong realize what a real ragtag army was.

To say that the forces within a legion are complex and intricate is to overestimate them. Often, there are several hilltops within a team of 100 people.

Most of the immortal cultivators in these three counties are unruly and do not need training at all.

Not to mention military formations, these three militia groups don't even have the so-called battle formations.

What made Yi Dong speechless the most was that after the three militia groups came over, someone often secretly resold supplies to the Yi family, and one of them was from a wealthy family.

Xia County’s militia, even the last-ranked cannon fodder regiment, is much stronger than the other three militias.

Because during training, the Xia County militia would really kill anyone who violated discipline.

After the arrival of these three militia groups.

At first, Yi Dong didn’t understand what Zhu Maorong wanted to do.

Do you think that you can force yourself into the dungeon by just sending three useless ragtag troops?

However, what Yi Dong didn't expect was.

The area around this underground cave is basically occupied by immortal cultivators.

A large number of immortal cultivators gathered here, which caused problems. The immortal cultivators in Xia County, regardless of whether they were from the Yi family or not, and regardless of whether they were from a noble family, would be killed by the immortal cultivators in the Yi family who were responsible for law enforcement if they caused trouble.

Under the high-pressure policy, the immortal cultivators in Xia County cannot cause any trouble.

But the three miscellaneous militia groups were different.

The number of homicides is increasing, private fights are rampant, and the trend of killing people for treasure is becoming more and more prevalent.

Death is not a problem, because many cultivators in Xia County were killed by cultivators from the Yi family who were in charge of punishment, and the procedures were complete.

The problem is that many people in those three militias did not die because they violated military law, which is a problem.

Then, the Law Enforcement Department of Pingyuan County drove a warship directly over.

Another month passed.

That day, Quan Sanbao brought a marching order with the stamp of the War Court to Yi Dong.

This war court was a department established just after the year of Kanshui, specifically to manage "civilian" wars.

Yi Dong had already read the war bill issued by the War Court.

One of the rules is that if you fail to execute a military order, you will be defined as a war criminal and arrested by the Law Enforcement Department. You will then quickly go through the court process and finally be beheaded on the beheading platform.

Each county’s militia had a general.

Above the general is the marshal.

But whether it is the general or the militia marshal, they are not actually military positions in the fairyland.

These legions actually have nothing to do with the official Xian Kingdom and are just civilian groups.

Yi Dong also saw through this, which is why he did not give face to Marshal Zhu Maorong.

After all, the other party’s representative is not official.

However, Yi Dong had no way of ignoring the War Court's marching order.

"Friend Yi, what should we do now?
Are you ready to enter the crypt?"

Quan Sanbao was also somewhat helpless. The underground teleportation technology was already very mature. He really didn't know what was the point of Yi Dong wasting time here.

"Go tell Yi Fu to bring those three militia members here."

"Friend Yi, the county militias are not subordinate to each other."

"Go and tell them that the laws of the fairyland only apply to the land of the fairyland. The underground is not a place that can be governed by the law.

Whether they come or not, they have to think carefully. When they go down to the underworld, I don’t care what kind of creatures there are. I will destroy those who disobey me first.

By the way, if the three militia supervisors dare to stop us, tell them that they are no exception. On the surface, they are immortal officials, but underground, they are nothing in front of me. "

Yi Dong, who had been plotted against by Zhu Maorong, was too lazy to maintain superficial harmony with the immortal officials such as Quan Sanbao.

In the fairyland, the law can restrain him.

Once he goes underground, he is the law. Anyone who dares to say "no" will be made to never see the light of day again.

Whether it was the three militia supervisors or Quan Sanbao and his three men.

Quan Sanbao was stunned at first and wanted to say something, but when he saw Yi Dong's eyes, he shuddered.

I almost forgot how Yi Dong led the Yi family to rise during the Kunxu Rebellion.

In Yi Dong's eyes, human life may be weightless.

Thinking of this, Quan Sanbao couldn't help but bend his waist slightly.

Originally, he still maintained the reserve of an immortal official in front of Yi Dong, but at this moment, he understood how to judge the situation.

An hour later.

More than 300 people were forced to come down to the outside of the pagoda by a group of immortal cultivators from the Yi family.

Yi Dong walked out of the pagoda and glanced at the committee members who dared to be angry but not to speak.

“I’ll only say this once.

Next we are going to enter the underground world. I don’t care who you are or what your relationship is.

From now on, you have to listen to me.

Just in case some of you fearless idiots don't understand.

Let me explain to you briefly. We are the vanguard, and more people will be recruited to go underground.

If there is an idiot who really doesn't follow my rules, no matter whether you are from a noble family or a casual cultivator, your family and friends, whether they are cultivators or mortals, will be recruited into the subsequent support legion.

My Yi family has always been in Xia County. In the entire Pingyuan County, there are many things that our Yi family cannot do, but we can still do the small thing of recruiting several aristocratic families into the militia.

If you don't believe me, you can try and see if I, Yi Dong, can gather your entire family underground.

Without further ado, enter the dungeon in the order of Songping County, Pengshui County, and Wen County."

After saying this, Yi Dong looked at the cultivators of the Yi family.
"If anyone has any comments, please write them down and give me the list."

After saying that, Yi Dong glanced at these so-called committee members calmly, turned around and returned to the pagoda.

Outside the pagoda, the anger disappeared from the faces of the committee members from the three counties.

Immortal cultivators who are able to cultivate to the stage of foundation building and golden elixir are generally past the age of passion.

Yi Dong's meaning was very clear. If anyone dared not to listen to him, he would not only kill that person, but also his entire family.

Most of the immortal cultivators in Pingyuan County have heard the legend of the Yi family in Zijin Mountain.

The legend of the Yi family's rise began with their collusion with the immortal cultivators of Kunxu to massacre the seven major families in Xia County.

Putting aside the question of whether the legend from a hundred years ago was true or not, earlier in Pingyuan County, rumors that the Yi family did not give face to the Marshal, but nothing happened, had spread throughout the militias in various counties.

Facing the meritorious families, the Yi family has the confidence, and there is a high probability that the Yi family can destroy these families.
