I forged immortality in my past life.

"It's good that you have confidence."

Li Wu Hui nodded.

continued:

"Mingyue, I'm about to advance to level 7. Protect me for a moment."

"Alright, Senior Brother, don't worry, Mingyue won't let anyone disturb you."

Gao Mingyue patted her chest, looking confident.

After fighting side by side in the enemy lines, their mutual trust seemed to have increased significantly.

Li Wu Hui smiled gently.

Close your eyes, and a panel pops up in your mind.

Then, 10,000 experience points were consumed to advance to the next level!

[You are advancing to level 7 soldier. Since you have chosen Protective Qi as your enhancement direction, automatic enhancement has begun. Your base full-strength Qi usage has increased by 6 times, and all your Cloud Ladder Sword Immortal skill levels have increased by 1.]

This time, the level advancement was exceptionally fast.

Li Wu Hui felt a sudden realization, and with the addition of more than ten years of cultivation memories, all his skills genuinely improved to a higher level.

After increasing one's Qi by half, it is not an improvement in the body's inherent endurance.

However, it further enhanced the control over the physical body.

Li Wu Hui's explosive power has increased by 20%, and his actual endurance has improved by 30%, which is probably due to his level 8 walking energy recovery skill.

Now that things have come to this, check the panel to see if the evaluation of yourself has changed.

【Li Wu Hui】

[Identity: Elder of Logistics in the Taoist Sect, Cloud-Ladder Sword Immortal]

[Troop Level: 7 (3697/30000)]

Current lifespan: 18/82+10 (after regression)

[Protective Qi: 18 + 10 (Qi recovery enhancement during walking), each Qi can resist 80% of one's own full strength]

[Military Merit: 18457 + 20000 (Killed 800 Ghost-Faced Drumming Cavalry, helping Meteorite City turn the tide of battle)]

【技能：8级梯云纵（100/100），8级闪避反击（1/100），8级行走回气（1/100），8级飞鹰剑术（1/100），8级飞鹰枪术（1/100），5级骑术（55/100）】

[Treasures: Level 4 Taoist Sword, Level 5 Taoist Sword, Level 8 Eight Trigrams Ghost-Sealing Mirror]

[Mounts: Level 5 Swift Wind Steed, Level 4 Swift Wind Steed]

[Combat Strength Assessment: Capable of taking on a thousand enemies single-handedly, and a top dog among a vast army of miscellaneous soldiers! Unrivaled among level 7 units, capable of killing one person in ten steps, leaving no trace for a thousand miles; truly possessing the aura of a sword immortal.]

Li Wu Hui let out a sigh of relief.

He had seen his own stats when he was a Tier 6 unit, and at that time he was rated as capable of taking on a thousand enemies single-handedly.

As a result, being promoted to level 7 soldier also earned him the reputation of being the best among the miscellaneous soldiers.

Does something that has actually been done really need an unnecessary evaluation from the control panel?

Ugh!

"The strength improvements after level 6 are all quantitative changes; the Daoist predecessors were right!"

"However, we should be content."

At the very least, my lifespan has increased by ten years, reaching 82 years old, which is something I can bring back to my original body.

For Li Wu Hui, lifespan was more important than the reward of extraordinary power.

Therefore, any promotion would be a huge gain for him.

Li Wu Hui opened his eyes.

"Senior brother, you've successfully advanced."

Gao Mingyue could sense that the dangerous and resolute aura emanating from Li Wuhui had become even more pronounced.

If someone gets close to him, or even if they are hostile.

Facing Li Wu Hui, you would feel like you are facing an iron wall covered with spikes!

"Um."

Li Wu Hui smiled slightly.

Gao Mingyue's panel popped up in front of him.

【Gao Mingyue】

[Level 4 Messenger Elder (632/1000)]

Even after numerous battles, Gao Mingyue, as the commander, often had to oversee the entire army and didn't have time to kill enemies, so her experience points were only just over 60%.

In fact, 400 of those points were accumulated because I charged into battle with Li Wu Hui today, allowing me to kill enemies without fear of danger.

"I still need to take you to fight more enemies."

"I'm already level 7, and you're only level 4, Mingyue. I'm afraid to leave you now."

Li Wu Hui simply made a normal sigh.

Unexpectedly, Gao Mingyue took it seriously.

Her expression changed, and she asked with a bitter tone, "Senior brother, are you trying to send me away?"

Li Wu Hui was taken aback and quickly composed himself.

"That's not true. Why are you suddenly saying such discouraging things?"

"As expected, it's because I had imagined during the battle that the Emperor would back down because the Daoist sect was a tough nut to crack."

Gao Mingyue gritted her teeth and lowered her head.

"Senior brother, weren't you disappointed in me because I said those discouraging things?"

This time it was Li Wu Hui's turn to widen his eyes!

When did he ever have such a thought?

Not to mention that you, Gao Mingyue, are the person I trust most in this world.

Just considering your own abilities, the two of you forming an army will give me a 30% boost to my combat power. Combined with my world-class level 7 troops, that would be like adding wings to a tiger!

How incredibly stupid of me to ignore you and refuse to fight alongside you?

Damn it, I thought I had finally changed Gao Mingyue's insecure personality.

Who did it again?

Could it be me?

It's impossible!

Li Wu Hui would not accept such a thing.

He immediately hooked Gao Mingyue's chin with his right hand: "Listen, Mingyue, the luckiest thing for me since I came into this world is meeting you."

"You may not realize it yourself, but you possess exceptional military command abilities. With your assistance, I can confidently entrust you with managing the army, charging into battle, and even making rapid progress in your martial arts!"

"Furthermore, your command and your genuine concern for me allow me to unleash 30% more power than I ever have at my peak!"

"These are all undeniable facts!"

"You're great, and I'm glad to fight alongside you."

"I'm seriously considering helping you fight enemies and become stronger, because I see that your martial arts talent is not much inferior to mine, understand?"

Li Wu Hui spoke at once.

There are some things that are better left unsaid to the native inhabitants of another world.

But it might be due to memories of a past life.

Li Wu Hui couldn't treat the otherworldly beings like game NPCs, just like the other Earth recruits.

They truly live here, believe in Taoism, and are willing to sacrifice their lives for it!

And I, too, am burning through my lifespan, fighting alongside one of them.

If I consider Gao Mingyue as a passerby who is temporarily standing shoulder to shoulder with me.

Isn't that denying one's own life?

Li Wu Hui didn't know if such an idea was immature among the recruits.

But that's really what he thinks now.

and,

I don't want to change.

Gao Mingyue stared intently at Li Wuhui.

The disappointment, grievance, and a hint of deep-seated inferiority in his eyes finally disappeared.

She suddenly laughed.

"Li Wu Hui, may I call you that?"

"Of course, Mingyue, you can call me whatever you want."

Li Wu Hui thought the girl had regained her confidence after his comforting words, and he felt very happy.

But all that was seen was Gao Mingyue brushing her hair aside.

Then, her jade-like hand, carrying a faint fragrance from her hair, wrapped around the back of Li Wu Hui's neck, and her chin gently rested on his shoulder.

Her voice was as gentle as a knife made of water.

It's soft and makes a lasting impression.

"Li Wu Hui, can I trust you?"

"certainly."

Li Wu Hui swallowed hard, hesitated for a moment, and then firmly pressed his right hand down on Gao Mingyue's head.

"it is good."

Gao Mingyue let out a soft laugh.

Li Wu Hui felt as if he could remember it forever.
