eared.The Dragon's Cry echoed throughout the heavens and earth within the Fangtian Painted Halberd. Lu Xiaotian felt a surge, as the Fangtian Painted Halberd flew towards him. Holding it, he didn't fe...Well, my military-themed old book has been shelved, alas. It's a political issue, really troublesome. It's been half a year since the old book ended, and I still get over two thousand in subscription income every month. The new book, even with daily updates, only brings in over seven hundred. So I have to rush to modify the old book. The original plan was three updates a day, but now it can only be reduced to two, and work has already started getting busy, leaving me feeling overwhelmed and powerless. Please forgive me, dear readers. With the old book shelved, I'm currently facing an economic crisis. I rarely asked for subscriptions before, but now, if any capable reader wants to subscribe, please do so. Your support would be immensely appreciated.
For several months, the entire squad was engaged in this kind of sneak attack-based combat. Cao Haihua's experience earned him everyone's recognition. Under the leadership of this veteran cultivator, Lu Xiaoxiao happily took care of fewer things. However, the existence of Lu Xiaoxiao's fire-element dan yuan artifact couldn't be ignored by anyone. With Lu Xiaoxiao as their guardian, everyone in the squad felt much more at ease. Besides, Lu Xiaoxiao didn't seem to have any desire to compete for credit with them. Over several months, each of them had harvested a number of merit points, varying in quantity.
Don't underestimate these achievements. They have only been fighting for a few months and haven't suffered any major losses. Besides, they have all gained quite a bit of spiritual items. Just the confiscated magic weapons are worth a lot of spirit stones. Everyone has benefited, especially since Lu Xiaoteng deliberately let others win, making the team atmosphere much more harmonious than at the beginning. Even Qian Dali had been honest this whole time. Lu Xiaoteng was thinking about when to find a quiet place to cultivate the mysterious splitting technique, and most of the time he was also deducing formations. With everyone present, he didn't bother with them either.
The squad of cultivators was in high spirits, about to head to a temporary camp where they had heard injured cultivators from another domain were recuperating. Suddenly, a blinding white figure streaked across the sky at an impossible speed, emanating a powerful aura, yet seeming somewhat flustered as well.
"Conceal yourselves!" With the enemy and ally unclear, Cao Haihua's face changed slightly, and he hissed in a low voice.
However, Wu Yan noticed that Lu Xiaottian's usually placid eyes suddenly burst forth with a look as sharp as arrows, making it impossible to meet his gaze. Wu Yan and Peng Da, who were close by, were both taken aback. They hadn't expected Lu Xiaottian's aura to be so frightening. She knew that Lu Xiaottian didn't want to vie for merit points with them. Besides the fire-elemental dan yuan artifact, he hadn't shown anything out of the ordinary these past few months. But only at this moment could they feel the sharpness hidden beneath Lu Xiaottian's placid exterior, like a peerless sword about to be unsheathed. It was only in the face of life-and-death crisis in the Blood-Colored Forbidden Zone that they had seen such a demeanor.
"They're from the Flying Cavalry Tribe!" Peng Da shrank his neck, further burying himself under the tree. During their time lurking outside Xuan Ye City, they all knew that most foreign cultivators could be killed, but it was best to avoid provoking the Flying Cavalry Tribe. The group of imposing Flying Cavalry warriors in front of them numbered over twenty. Most carried black longbows with quivers full of heavy arrows on their backs. Several others wielded spears, their auras terrifying.
Over twenty cavalry tribesmen dashed past in a blur. Before they could even blink, three terrifying auras chased after them from the sky. It seemed like two of them were cultivators from the Heavenly Expanse Realm, and one was wearing colorful robes, carrying a curved saber at his waist, very much resembling a cultivator from the Southern Wasteland. The aura emanating from their respective magical artifacts was truly frightening, even surpassing Lu Xiaoteng's blazing Inferno Sword in intensity. Over these past few months, although Lu Xiaoteng hadn't gone all out, they could still sense the terrifying power he possessed. These three before them not only had auras that reached the late stage of Foundation Establishment, but they also wielded Dan Yuan magical artifacts. One even gave them a sinister look.
"What a terrifying gaze!" At this moment, even Cao Haihua and the others couldn't help but feel a jolt of fear. From that young man with the green saber's eyes, Cao Haihua, based on his years of adventuring experience, could judge that the other party had definitely discovered their presence, but it seemed they were preoccupied chasing someone more important and ignored these small fry. Thinking that he, a cultivator at the late stage of foundation establishment, and even the peak master of one domain in Lingxiao Palace, was directly ignored by the enemy, Cao Haihua couldn't help but feel a bitter taste in his heart.
However, the will to survive soon took over. Being ignored was nothing compared to that. Cao Haihua quickly felt a glimmer of hope in his heart. Thankfully, the other party had more important targets. Otherwise, those two waves of people just now, no matter which wave stayed behind, would have been a disaster for them.
"We've been discovered, we have to evacuate immediately!" Cao Haihua only wiped the cold sweat from his forehead after the other party disappeared.
"Yes, leave quickly, this place is not safe to linger." As soon as Cao Haihua spoke, the others echoed him in unison, clearly realizing the danger of their current location.
"Lu Shixiong, what's wrong" Wu Yan saw the strange expression on Lu Xiaoteng's face and hurriedly asked.
"You guys go on, I have to take a look." Lu Xia Tian shook his head.
"You can't go! There are so many of them, you'll be walking into a death trap!" Wu Yan was instantly panicked, tears welling up in her eyes. She took two steps forward, trying to pull Lu Xia Tian back, afraid he would do something reckless.
"Alright, Junior Brother Lu, your strength is impressive, but the other side isn't weak either. Moreover, they have too many people. Both groups, whichever one we face, if we all go up, it'll be a suicide mission. You going alone wouldn't leave you a chance to come back."

Cao Haihua was also startled. Over the past few months, their squad had been able to remain safe and sound. Besides his relative familiarity with the situation around Xuan Ye City and his wealth of experience, Lu Xiaottian's combat strength played an irreplaceable role. Otherwise, even if they could have lasted until now, their squad would have definitely lost several people instead of being one short. If Lu Xiaottian went this time, where could they find another strong reinforcement like Lu Xiaottian In the entire Lingxiao Palace, there were only a handful of foundation-building cultivators who could compete with Lu Xiaottian. How could such a person give him false excuses
“I have a reason I must leave. You've all made considerable gains these past few months, gathering much information about the cultivators from other realms. It's time to go back and consolidate your findings. This place is dangerous, and I may not be able to stay with you. Please be careful.”
As soon as Lü Xiaotiān's voice fell, the wheelchair flashed, dodging Cao Haihua's grasping hand. A streak of blue light whizzed past, and before anyone could react, Lü Xiaotiān had boarded the Qingfeng Sail and sped off in the direction where the Feiqí Tribe cultivator and those three formidable Zhújī cultivators with Dányuàn artifacts had just left.
"Senior Brother Lu, I'm going with you." Wu Yan was so angry that she stomped her feet and drew out her magic weapon to catch up, but Lu Xiaoteng didn't even turn his head back as he slapped out with his palm. A powerful force surged over, making it impossible for Wu Yan to resist. Wu Yan flew backwards several meters. If it wasn't for the fact that Lu Xiaoteng's attack was a gentle force, at this time, Wu Yan would probably be quite embarrassed even if she wasn't injured.
“You can't help me, take care of yourself!” As soon as Lu Xia Tian finished speaking, Qing Feng Fan had already transformed into a green shadow.
"Late stage of foundation building!" Cao Haihua cried out in surprise. The pure mana of this palm was almost the same as his own. He didn't use any magic artifacts, which was definitely not something a mid-stage foundation building cultivator could achieve.
"What Senior Brother Lu is already a late Foundation Establishment cultivator" Peng Dayu, who had come to his senses, felt that his brain wasn't enough. He entered Lingxiao Palace with Lu Xiaoteng. He had only just reached the fourth level of Foundation Establishment, while the other party was so far ahead.
Wu Yan felt a pang of bitterness in her heart, but she didn't take Cao Haihua's words to heart. Perhaps what was shocking to others wasn't so outlandish to her. Lu Shishu, compared to those talented cultivators, was no different. Those Jindan cultivators looked down on him, it was simply that they had overlooked him. Lu Shishu, with his own strength, in her estimation, hadn't met an opponent of the same rank. The only thing was, why did Lu Shishu have to leave Was it because of the white figure that appeared before Thinking of this, Wu Yan felt a twinge of sorrow.sms. The crystal-clear aura inside gradually increased with the fluctuations of the bloodline law's profound meaning, and at the same time, it carried Wen Yan's unique golden law power.... "Listening...
