Attacking this tribe might cause decades of previous efforts to be wasted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Military merit and official positions were not easy to rise; they required multiple victories to accumulate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But falling only required one disastrous defeat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I know.\" Zhao Xing nodded. \"I have already notified the front line to let them send a ten-thousand-man team back to protect the transportation line.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In this way, efficiency is reduced,\" Che Shihai said. \"Generally, combat power transferred back is useless.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let's do this for now.\" Zhao Xing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A soul-bewitching array appeared on the supply line, and the range was not small, which led to the original safe transportation route being unusable, so they could only take a detour through the enemy-occupied area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The scale couldn't be too large, otherwise it would be easily discovered and intercepted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Changing the road now was just a stopgap measure. Ultimately, it still had to be solved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But whether to retreat or not still depended on the decision of the main commander at the front. Zhao Xing, this logistics director, could only manage his own affairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After instructing Wang Ji and Han Bing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing intended to go back to find Liu Tianning, but at this time, the Earth Mirror trembled.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He took it out and saw that it was a mission issued to him by the Soldier Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Soldier Realm Mission: 'Stabilize the Soul-Sacrifice Pass Supply Line']\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>[Soldier Realm Intelligence: Large-scale high-level soul-bewitching arrays have appeared on Anping Road and Nanxiang Road from Tonghuo City to the Soul-Sacrifice Pass.

If the supply line cannot be maintained, leading to failure in front-line operations, you will be deducted a large amount of military merit.

After two days, the Soldier Realm also collected enough intelligence and deduced the direction of the war.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now Zhao Xing estimated that he was not the only one who received the mission, but also the main commanders at the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The content could also be guessed, which was that logistics supplies would have problems, leading to an increase in the difficulty of fighting. Under this premise, one head would count as two merits.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the corresponding casualty rate would also become higher.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Continue to fight, the military merit reward would become higher; this was because the opponent's strength had also been upgraded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Of course, if they lost the battle, the deducted military merit would also be quite serious, and even all previous efforts might be in vain, with military merit directly returning to zero, just like Min Zhiheng.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The last large-scale military merit mission of this stage, I cannot easily give up.\" Zhao Xing thought to himself. \"The further back, the harder it is to earn military merit, especially after next year, the Jing Emperor gradually becomes impatient, and the Southern Barbarians have stabilized their decline but are becoming more and more tenacious.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"My current military merit, I estimate I can only get a regular sixth-rank. Because the previous million military merits were exchanged for the Yin Deity quota, there is not a single level of scattered rank and scattered title.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing didn't care much about scattered official titles, but after transferring to a civil Si Nong, having a title was best because the civil official system valued this relatively much.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Scattered rank was related to the annual extra bonus, which was relatively large in wartime rewards, especially the merit of breaking a city, which added a lot to the scattered rank.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now Zhao Xing didn't lack money, but after reaching the sixth rank, he would definitely lack money because the seeds and treasures of the middle and high ranks began to slowly become scarce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And he wanted to mix to the fifth rank during the Jing Emperor period, practice the Inner Five Elements Heaven and Earth, and strengthen the \"Houtu Gravel,\" all of which required a large amount of resources.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he didn't intend to embezzle, relying on that little basic salary of his official position, don't think about practicing up on his own.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he didn't rely on himself, he had to rely on the imperial court.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in this way, after being demoted, his cultivation would drop greatly, he would be controlled by the Great Zhou's national destiny system, and it would affect Zhao Xing's longevity plan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn't intend to rely on the imperial court to improve his cultivation and spell realm. He only wanted national destiny and longevity!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is now November 7th of the 17th year of the Jingxin Calendar.\" Zhao Xing thought to himself. \"Military merit! I must earn more military merit!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liu Tianning arrived at the Chen hour (7-9 AM) and instructed Zhao Xing to prepare materials.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The materials were ready by the Wu hour.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But in the meantime, Zhao Xing received news from the front line again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, Liao Ruolong contacted Zhao Xing through the Earth Mirror to ask about the supply line problem.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing received the mission, and they naturally received it too.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can you guarantee the army's supplies?\" Liao Ruolong asked. \"If not, we can retreat to the vicinity of Tonghuo City first and then make other plans.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes,\" Zhao Xing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liao Ruolong and Xia Jing were together, but Xia Jing didn't ask because he believed Zhao Xing could handle it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Jiang Ming and Li Que of the Town Sea Army didn't ask either, because the two of them didn't receive this mission at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the front line, the two of them were deputy generals of the coalition army and had no decision-making power.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the main army retreated, they would follow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Part of the Town Sea Army's warships also shouldered the task of logistics supply transportation. In terms of logistics, they had to listen to Zhao Xing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So there was no need to worry at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But on the other two lines, the Qi Yuan Army, Wen Shaoyang, Yi Yue, and Nangong Ye all sent messages to inquire.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Among them, Nangong Ye and the Qi Yuan Army had relatively gentle wording.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because for more than half a month, Zhao Xing hadn't made any mistakes, and every time he sent them on time and in quantity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Yi Yue was relatively excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Zhao Xing, can this supply line of yours be stabilized?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you can't, I will transfer more people from the Yuanhua Army!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Yue was so excited for a reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the supplies Zhao Xing sent out a few days ago were trapped by the soul-bewitching array on Anping Road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The supplies for Yi Yue's Yuanhua Army were delayed for nearly two days.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yi Yue was ranked third on the seventh-rank military merit list. He was a hot-tempered person. When talking to the Qi Yuan Army and Nangong Ye, he would slap the table.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What he meant was that if you, Zhao Xing, couldn't do it well, then change to someone else. My Yuanhua Army has plenty of logistics that can be transferred over.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"General Yi, calm down. There will definitely not be such delays in the future,\" Zhao Xing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What if there is such a thing again?\" Yi Yue was aggressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then this position of mine will be given to General Yi's people!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Good, it's a deal!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, Yi Yue cut off the communication.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yi Yue has great ability, and his temper is also great,\" Che Shihai on the side said. \"Daring to talk to the boss like this.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It can't be blamed on him for speaking loudly. This matter concerns the lives of thousands of people in his army,\" Zhao Xing said. \"If it were me, I would also be angry.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In such matters, there was no question of face or no face; it was about the matter, not the person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing didn't feel that Yi Yue was targeting him, after all, it was really delayed for two days before.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Must solve this problem quickly... Wang Ji, is the thing you made ready?\" Zhao Xing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ready, it has been moved to the big drill ground in the south of the city,\" Wang Ji said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Han Bing, you go notify the priest Zhang Yi and let him bring people over,\" Zhao Xing said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everything was ready. Liu Tianning set up a small soul-bewitching array on the southern drill ground of the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was called small, but the array also covered nearly ten thousand acres of farmland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And it reached the level of a high-level array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A high-level soul-bewitching array already involves the path of Yin and Yang,\" Liu Tianning stood in front of the array with Zhao Xing. \"The one I set up is just a simple version, using many materials, and there are people guarding the array, barely reaching the high-level level.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But what you encountered should be an array without guards, set up with the Five Elements of Heaven and Earth as the base and vengeful spirits as materials.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, the principle is the same,\" Liu Tianning said. \"If you can break through this array, you can also pass the arrays on Anping Road and Nanxiang Road.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Can only break through, not break?\" Zhao Xing asked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Cannot be destroyed,\" Liu Tianning said. \"Such a large-scale array is very difficult to destroy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing thought about it, and it was true.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The defensive array of the Fire Dragon Pass also stretched for hundreds of miles. That kind of large-scale array required the Divine Might Army and Black Armor Army to send a total of 18,000 people to climb over the Flame Mountain and destroy it from the inside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They blew up dozens of cities, and it only made the defensive array temporarily invalid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Afterward, with the fierce bombardment of a large number of Town Sea Army tower ships outside the pass, it was finally broken.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The current soul-bewitching array, although not as good as the Fire Dragon Pass defensive array, was also a large-scale high-level array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was also very difficult to destroy from the inside because inside it, you would get ghost-walled and couldn't find the direction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You just need to be able to pass,\" Liu Tianning said. \"The soul-bewitching array has no offensive power; it is mainly used to block and trap the enemy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You understand how to pass this array, and then learn the Self-Straw Man. Every time you transport supplies in the future, you lead the team yourself, and you can solve this problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Understood.\" Zhao Xing nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Starting from November 7th, Zhao Xing handed over military affairs to Han Bing and Wang Ji. At this time, he could only believe that they could complete the mission of \"detouring to transport supplies.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He himself focused on learning from Liu Tianning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What to learn?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>One was to pass the high-level soul-bewitching array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>For the high-level soul-bewitching array, Zhao Xing's speed of passing the array was very fast.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, he had Liu Tianning's guidance; second, he had a foundation in array methods; finally, his fate soul reached the sixth rank, and he also possessed the Heavenly Eye Method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With many factors superimposed, Zhao Xing quickly mastered the technique of passing the array.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second was to practice the Self-Straw Man method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Self-Straw Man method had a minimum threshold of five methods perfectly combined.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The lowest-level Self-Straw Man was also a high-level spell, and the highest level had no upper limit. It could be called the \"ultimate spell\" of the straw man method.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing's previous straw man method could achieve three methods perfectly combined, which were Flying, Divine Courage, and Martyrdom Explosion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Four methods combined only had the intermediate seventh-turn level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wanting to achieve five methods perfectly combined in a short time was actually quite difficult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he hadn't taken the Fate Soul Pill before, even with Liu Tianning's personal guidance, Zhao Xing wouldn't expect himself to be able to do it in a short time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now that he had taken the Fate Soul Pill and had Liu Tianning personally demonstrate the Self-Straw Man method, there was a glimmer of hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Soldier Realm, Hundred Soldier Tower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Hou Wang, Ling De Wang, and Tian Yan Wang gathered together.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tian Yan Wang, Luo Hou Wang, the turning point of your gambling game has come,\" Ling De Wang said. \"Zhao Xing did not give up the mission assigned by the Soldier Realm, and the main commanders in front of the Soul-Sacrifice Pass have not retreated.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This kid is taking risks again,\" Tian Yan Wang couldn't laugh at this time either. \"Before, he was taking risks at the Fire Dragon Pass. This time, knowing that the mission is difficult, he still refuses to give up.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Qi Yuan Army, Nangong Ye, Yi Yue, Xia Jing, Liao Ruolong... are all geniuses who take risks. Only Wen Shaoyang is steady. The few of them together are really birds of a feather,\" Tian Yan Wang shook his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If the main commanders didn't agree, then Zhao Xing couldn't take this mission, and the army would retreat, and it would disappear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Zhao Xing felt it wouldn't work, then without the guarantee of logistics supplies, the armies on the three roads in front would also retreat to Tonghuo City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhao Xing divined the future with the Turtle Coin Divination Method before, and the hint he got was to follow the trend and preserve the existing fruits of victory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tian Yan Wang also felt that they should stop for a while, but these few people didn't stop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It may not necessarily be taking risks,\" Luo Hou Wang looked at the intelligence reports. \"The army at the Soul-Sacrifice Pass is clearly afraid. They can't win head-on, so they want to cut off their supply line to make them retreat in the face of difficulties and strive for a breathing space.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If the supplies are not lost, in another two months, the Soul-Sacrifice Pass will not be able to hold on.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling De Wang said: \"The deduction of the Creation Plate feels that the Eastern Front army is relatively dangerous, Luo Hou Wang, the premise is that they must be able to persist.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The Creation Plate is not necessarily 100% accurate; it only provides possibilities,\" Luo Hou Wang said. \"Ling De Wang, do you want to gamble too?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling De Wang was stunned, and then smiled: \"Since you, Luo Hou, invite, of course I have to give face. How do you want to gamble?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I bet Zhao Xing's supply line will not be lost, and the Soul-Sacrifice Pass will be taken within two months,\" Luo Hou Wang said. \"Bet two seventh-rank divine weapons.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hahaha.\" Tian Yan Wang laughed. \"Luo Hou, don't get deeper and deeper. You bet a seventh-rank divine weapon with me, and now two with Ling De Wang.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling De Wang smiled: \"Taking the Soul-Sacrifice Pass within two months, then Zhao Xing must immediately solve the soul-bewitching array problem, but I still won't bet.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Luo Hou Wang said: \"Forty days! I bet the Soul-Sacrifice Pass will be taken within forty days!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling De Wang was surprised. He thought about it slightly, and finally couldn't resist the temptation: \"Good, I bet! Let's see whether the Creation Plate is accurate or your Luo Hou's vision is accurate.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Maybe Luo Hou can win back some blood from you,\" Tian Yan Wang laughed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ling De Wang, you will lose,\" Luo Hou said indifferently. \"Didn't I tell you? People who can create opportunities even when there are none are absolute geniuses. They can often create miracles.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And now, there is more than one such person on the Eastern Front.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ling De Wang was a bit stunned. He immediately took out the Earth Mirror to search: \"Damn! Luo Hou, you tricked me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Liu Tianning also went to the war zone, does this count? This doesn't follow the rules!\" Ling De Wang protested.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why can't it count?\" Luo Hou Wang showed a smile: \"He is just a clone with sixth-rank combat power. He went to teach his disciple and didn't take action directly. The hard conditions for breaking through the high-level soul-bewitching array are there.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You...\" Ling De Wang was speechless. If it were only Zhao Xing, he would really dare to bet, but now that Liu Tianning also ran over, he was really a bit empty. In the Soldier Realm Supervision Department, the evaluation of Liu Tianning was very high! If he went to teach Zhao Xing, he might really be able to create a miracle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>November 9th, Zhao Xing was already able to shuttle back and forth in the soul-bewitching array on the southern drill ground of the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>November 10th, Zhao Xing began to practice the combination of four methods, which were Flying, Divine Courage, Martyrdom Explosion, and Hidden Straw Man.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>November 13th, the straw man method was perfectly combined with four methods!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But at this time, the transportation of supplies from Tonghuo City to the front line was also frequently attacked and damaged in many places.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Tonghuo City's supply production was sufficient. Zhao Xing insisted on executing the saturation transportation method under pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That is to say, every time he sent supplies, he sent three to five times the amount. Since he was taking a detour, he would set up more lines, divide them into multiple batches, turn the whole into parts, and play hide-and-seek with the enemy troops intercepting the road.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if there were losses, the losses were shared by multiple teams. Under such circumstances, the supplies to the front line were barely guaranteed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under such pressure, time came to December 3rd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, whether it was the Divine Might Army, Town Sea Army, Black Armor Army, Zhaoyuan Army, Phantom Nether Army, or Yuanhua Army, the offensive was becoming more and more fierce, and the resistance of the Soul-Sacrifice Pass was also more tenacious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Great Zhou side wanted to take the Soul-Sacrifice Pass quickly because they knew that the supply line was always a hidden danger. The supply line controlled by Zhao Xing hadn't had any major problems yet, but it was not guaranteed that it wouldn't have problems if it dragged on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The six main commanders were also under great pressure.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The main commanders of the Soul-Sacrifice Pass were also under great pressure. The Six-Army Alliance's configuration was not luxurious.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Qi Yuan Army, Yi Yue, and Nangong Ye were all genius main commanders ranked in the top five of the seventh-rank military merit list.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Zhaoyuan Army, Yuanhua Army, and Phantom Nether Army were first-class strong armies among the Five Great Cave Heavens.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially the Phantom Nether Army, when facing Soul-Controlling Warlocks and ghost attacks, could often form an overwhelming advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At the beginning, the Soul-Sacrifice Pass dared to come out to fight, but later it only passively defended and dared not let the ghost army out again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was just that the teams sent out to harass the supply line were also increasing, striving to alleviate the pressure of attacking the pass from this aspect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as there could be a breakthrough in this aspect, then repelling the Six-Army Alliance would be a certainty.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>December 5th, Zhao Xing had already begun to practice the combination of five methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He used the five straw man methods of Divine Courage, Flying, Martyrdom Explosion, Hidden, and Soul-Detaining as a basis, attempting to perfectly fuse the five methods.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Peng!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A straw man exploded in front of his eyes.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is already the 19,873rd failure.\" Zhao Xing's face was a bit pale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was also under great pressure now because the bad news was slowly increasing. The saturation transportation method could not last long, and even enemy troops had begun to frequently attack Tonghuo City and the supply cities along the line.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I not only didn't get military merit this month, but also deducted more than 50,000.\" Zhao Xing thought to himself. Originally, providing supplies and transporting supplies had military merit every month, but this month, due to heavy losses, the monthly military merit reward was deducted, and he was also fined more than 50,000.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was like this, and those below him also began to \"owe debts.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The decisions of those in power would affect those below. Zhao Xing chose to persist in this mission and not let the army retreat, so he had to bear this risk.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Only in adversity can one see the Great Dao.\" Liu Tianning walked to Zhao Xing's front. \"The pressure you are under now is not enough. I will help you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What?\" Zhao Xing was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I will demonstrate one last time for you now,\" Liu Tianning said indifferently. \"Next, this straw man of mine will completely disintegrate, and I will not send any more straw men. You only have this last chance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If you can't learn it, your mission this time will definitely end in failure.\" \u003C\u002Fp>",4218,"2026-06-17T16:13:07.318Z","2026-06-18T03:34:23.509Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","52c95322d82afc3f833ac0909009cb1b804f6e8670903197957c5146b6667ae3","shennong-dao-lord-chapter-205","shennong-dao-lord-chapter-203",666,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fshennong-dao-lord-cover.jpg"]
