188. Chapter 188: Strategy (Seeking Subscriptions)

"Even for the weakest side force, the commander-in-chief needs at least Jin Dan combat power... The elders and deacons of the outer hall of the sect must follow me to the main battlefield. Therefore, at most, one False Dan can be brought, which is extremely dangerous."

Fu Hongyi looked at the group of true disciples, and his gaze fell on Fang Xing.

"This disciple is willing to go to the Wuxing Sect!"

Fang Xing did not yield and spoke up.

"Good, let it be decided as such, Lv Yi is yours to command!"

Fu Hongyi nodded and immediately made the decision.

Seeing that it was Fang Xing who came out, Yujianzi, who had been eager to try, immediately stopped talking.

He knew his own situation; although his Foundation Establishment magic power was deeper and he had cultivated sword aura, he could at most save his life in front of a False Dan cultivator.

To say that he could kill a False Dan Zhenren with one sword was absolutely impossible.

Encountering a real Jin Dan cultivator, he would have to kneel even more!

Among sword cultivators, the sword comes first.

Fang Xing's strength was high and his reputation was great, so naturally, no one was dissatisfied when he stood out.

As for why he chose the Wuxing Sect, he naturally had a little bit of selfishness.

Because Fang Xing flipped through the intelligence and found that the Wuxing Sect controlled a large 'Wuxing Sha Acupoint', which could extract several 'Wuxing Sha Qi' every year to provide for cultivators of Wuxing techniques to use for Foundation Establishment. It was one of the most famous Sha acupoints in the land of the Five Sects and Ten Nations.

'After the Martial Way Jin Dan, there is no high requirement for the attribute of Sha Qi, as long as it is Sha Qi... but the 'Wuxing Sha Qi' is upright and peaceful, born from Yin and Yang to form the Five Elements, which is the most reliable path.'

In other words, Fang Xing was determined to win this 'Wuxing Sha Acupoint'!

A moment later, a large number of cultivators flew out of Wan Shoushan and divided into three groups.

The largest wave, with spiritual warships filling the sky and arrays faintly visible, headed toward the Musha Sect.

The second largest batch, led by a green-robed sword cultivator, directly attacked the Tianpumen.

Fang Xing's side had the fewest people, only a thousand or so cultivators, and most of them were cultivators from the Zheng Nation.

As Zheng Nation cultivators, they were used to his prestige, so they could barely be driven.

"The uncle gave five spiritual warships, which can hold everyone... let's go!"

Fang Xing looked back at the mountain gate of Wan Shoushan and gave orders.

"Yes!"

Zhenren Lv Yi seemed to have become his housekeeper, going down to assign personnel and boarding the warships one by one.

Fu Hongyi assigning Zhenren Lv Yi to Fang Xing was not because he wanted to pit him.

It was because Fang Xing's subordinates were mostly Zheng Nation cultivators. After the Wan Shouzong was gone, the Qingxuan Sect was the boss. With Zhenren Lv Yi coming forward, she could suppress the largest group of Qingxuan Sect cultivators.

Things would be easier to handle next.

'Sure enough... the biggest disadvantage of sword cultivator sects is that there are too few people... The Si Tian Jian Sect is better, at least it established an outer hall.'

'Otherwise, with those few hundred swords in the inner sect, now that the troops have been divided, they wouldn't even be able to find people to guard the Wan Jian Gui Zong Array...'

Sword cultivation is extremely dependent on talent, and excellent disciples are hard to find.

Fang Xing sighed in his heart and immediately ordered: "Set off!"

The spiritual light on the hulls of the five pot-bellied spiritual warships flickered, flags fluttered, and they headed south together.

Many cultivators stood on the deck, some excited, some confused, some terrified...

'After this great war, I wonder how many of these thousand-plus cultivators will survive?'

Fang Xing calculated secretly in his heart.

'The total number of cultivators assigned to me is one thousand and twenty-seven... among them, one False Dan, forty-eight Foundation Establishment cultivators, and the rest are Qi Condensation.'

'Letting them practice the 'Wuxing Sword Array' for a period of time, now they can only be considered 'half-soldiers' who are barely proficient. Gathering the power of the battle array can probably raise Lv Yi to the level of a Jin Dan Zhenren... or temporarily give me the magic power of a mid-stage Jin Dan...'

'Strictly speaking... they are still trash! Far inferior to the treasure for breaking arrays supported by the sect.'

He swept a glance at the deck and then turned into the cabin: "Lv Yi... come here!"

Zhenren Lv Yi didn't know why, but her face actually flushed, and she had a bit of a young girl's posture of light anger and thin resentment.

But after hesitating for a while, she still followed into the cabin that the commander-in-chief possessed alone.

Seeing this, although the other cultivators didn't dare to say much, they looked at each other, and there was an ambiguous atmosphere.

On the deck, within the Qingxuan Sect camp.

Han Qingyun and Meng Zijin looked at each other: "Although Uncle Su had already hinted, after truly seeing it, it's still a bit... hard to believe."

"That person is actually the descendant of an old acquaintance from the market..."

Han Qingyun murmured, then shook his head: "He only had old ties with our elders, and even Elder Su didn't give him any face, so what face do we have? Now that the war is imminent, it's better to think about how to save our own lives..."

"Yes..."

Meng Zijin sighed. Needless to say, he definitely had no face in front of that commander-in-chief who shook the Zheng Nation.

... For Fang Xing, Han Qingyun was a subordinate he had collected before, and there was no relationship to begin with.

Furthermore, later on, these two also defected to others.

Although... now they have followed Su Ye to join his command again, there is indeed no relationship.

Meng Zijin is even more nonsense; he was just the son of a neighbor where he lived temporarily, and he only made a deal with his mother.

If they can stand in front of him with war merits after this great war, perhaps he will have the interest to invest in them.

If they accidentally die in battle, then they are dead...

He thought faintly in his heart and looked at Zhenren Lv Yi opposite him.

Using her to command the Qingxuan Sect, and then using the Qingxuan Sect to supervise other Zheng Nation cultivators, it's basically about the same.

Because the Qingxuan Sect is a sect! Loose soldiers and scattered generals just can't beat a well-organized legion!

'Wait a while and pull in that supervisor of the Heitian Temple, there shouldn't be much of a problem commanding them...'

A thought flashed through Fang Xing's mind, and he looked at the blushing Zhenren Lv Yi: "Do you know... why I called you in?"

"I don't know..." Zhenren Lv Yi felt some grief and indignation in her heart. Could it be that she had to take the initiative for this kind of thing?

"Hmm, as the Supreme Elder of the Qingxuan Sect, you should be relatively familiar with the Wuxing Sect. Tell me about the intelligence."

Fang Xing coughed.

"Just... discussing the war situation?" Zhenren Lv Yi couldn't tell if she was lucky or disappointed in her heart, but she was a False Dan Zhenren after all, so she quickly collected her mind and said: "The Wuxing Sect is good at various Wuxing spells... The current Supreme Elder calls himself 'Wuxing Dan Laozu'... This Wuxing Dan Laozu is an honorary title held by successive Supreme Elders of the Wuxing Sect. It is said that the 'Wuxing Dan Laozu' who founded the Wuxing Sect had cultivation that shook heaven and earth, and was only half a step away from condensing a Yuan Ying... He also cultivated a powerful divine light that could break all Wuxing divine abilities, and he made a great name for himself..."

Fang Xing listened very carefully.

Although he was always arrogant when drawing his sword, he would not look down on any of his opponents to avoid capsizing in the gutter.

"Fortunately, according to intelligence, the current mid-stage Jin Dan Wuxing Dan Laozu has been invited to the Musha Sect. The Wuxing Sect should be guarded by 'Zhenren Huoyu', who is also a Jin Dan cultivator. He should be in the early Jin Dan stage now, and his famous magic treasure is the 'Hunyuan Bowl'..."

Concerning life and death, Lv Yi was very dedicated, even telling him about the dark agents the Qingxuan Sect had in the Wuxing Sect.

It's a pity that the dark agent of the Qingxuan Sect was doing just average, and was still struggling in the outer sect, so it wasn't of much use.

'These cultivators... every one of them has a dirty heart...'

After Fang Xing finished listening, there was only one thought in his heart.

The Qingxuan Sect dared to send spies to the land of the Five Sects and Ten Nations, and they must have also tried to plant eyes in the Si Tian Jian Sect.

This was not for a sneak attack, but just to obtain some general intelligence to facilitate self-preservation in the future.

But if the strength relationship were reversed, it would be hard to say.

'The Wan Shouzong must also have similar arrangements... but I just cut the Gordian knot without reasoning, avoiding a lot of trouble.'

Fang Xing gave himself a like in his heart and encouraged her a few more times: "I intend to hand over the Wuxing Sword Array to you to manage, don't let me down..."

Although this battle array can raise magic power, it is too troublesome to move, losing the flexibility of a sword cultivator.

He also didn't care about the little magic power raised, so he could only hand it to Lv Yi.

A flash of surprise appeared on Zhenren Lv Yi's face, and she hurriedly humbled herself a few times.

"No need to be humble, there is only one False Dan Zhenren here, if I don't give it to you, should I give it to that Heitian Temple Foundation Establishment?"

Fang Xing shook his head: "In this battle, you must accumulate more war merits. After the war, I can make the decision to reward you with a magic treasure."

False Dan cultivators have no hope of improving their realm, and the only way to increase their strength is through external objects.

A magic treasure is very suitable.

Fang Xing even thought of the 'Flying Phoenix Hairpin' that had been eating dust in his storage bag, which was a relic of the previous Supreme Elder of the Qingxuan Sect.

Both sides are of the same lineage, and whether it is the main cultivation technique or the restrictions for refining magic treasures, they are about the same, and it can exert ninety percent of the magic treasure's power.

'I just don't know what expression Lv Yi will have then? But even if she thinks I killed the previous Supreme Elder, she can only smile at me!'

'Furthermore, I personally paid for the reward. According to the rules, Lv Yi's war merits must be given to me entirely... only by me going to exchange them can I exchange for more good things. This is a win-win!'

"You go out, and by the way, call the supervisor of the Heitian Temple in."

Fang Xing waved his hand, dismissing Zhenren Lv Yi, and not long after, he saw a skinny old Daoist.

This old Daoist came in and bowed deeply: "Heitian Temple 'Old Wu Xuan', see the commander-in-chief!"

"Hmm, you are already at the Foundation Establishment perfection, and have a chance to peek at the Jin Dan realm, so you must not miss it..."

Fang Xing said a few words of both kindness and severity as usual, and finally gave a promise: "In the Wuxing Sect, there might be Jin Dan spiritual objects. You must work hard. The Heitian Temple is a Jin Dan force after all, and it must have a Jin Dan cultivator sitting in it to be stable."

It immediately made Old Wu Xuan so excited that he couldn't control himself.

However, this old Daoist was an old hand in the world, and he didn't know if he was pretending or if it was real.

But Fang Xing didn't care, as long as the other party could stabilize the Heitian Temple cultivators and not cause any trouble.

After pulling in the two major sects like this, and then letting the two sects supervise those loose cultivators.

And putting Si Tian Jian Sect disciples in several key positions, Fang Xing barely managed to control this thousand people.

A few days later.

The flying boat crossed the vast mountains and truly entered the chaotic land of the Five Sects and Ten Nations.
