When Long Yu heard the name "Ascetic Alliance" from Dao Qing, he subconsciously thought of the Heavenly Prison Thunder Emperor and his father, Long Zaitian, whom he had yet to find. He immediately felt his heart throbbing.
Of course, he wasn't too excited about this because the Bitter Walker's Alliance was too big. Even if he met up with the members of the Bitter Walker's Alliance who were participating in this mission to escort the Fierce Fire Talismans, the possibility of him meeting the Heavenly Prison Thunder Emperor was too low.
"Right now, the people of the Ascetic Alliance have just been stopped by over two hundred Ice God Great Rulers. The situation is rather dangerous. The large legions of the Battlefield Legion are all held up by the Ice God Race at the frontline and can't return. Therefore, the battlecruiser fortress and another nearby fortress have already issued a reinforcement mission."
Dao Qing continued, "Our previous mission can be considered completed. If you don't want to continue, you can go directly to receive 100,000 Battlefield Army Merit and the mission will be over. If you want to continue, go and reinforce the people of the Ascetic Alliance. When the Fierce Fire Runes are delivered to the frontline, the reward of 100,000 Battlefield Army Merit will be doubled! "
Hearing Dao Qing's words, everyone was overjoyed. The choice given to them by the Battlefield Corps was really not bad. If they were afraid of danger, they could just claim the reward from the previous mission. But if they were willing to continue escorting the Fierce Flame Talismans to the frontline where the battlecruiser fortress was located, then their reward would be doubled!
Doubling the reward was really a very tempting condition. 100,000 Battlefield Army Merit could already be exchanged for a lot of cultivation resources. If it was doubled, many people's martial realm and cultivation might break through as a result!
However, Long Yu was a little puzzled. Right now, he was only a five-star Emperor. When he accepted the mission, he had already said that if he completed the mission, he would only receive 5,000 Battlefield Army Merit. Even if it was doubled, it would only be 10,000. It was really too little. Most importantly, although Long Yu's martial realm was relatively low, his demand for cultivation resources, especially creations, was not lower than others!
"How about it, do you want to go?"
Long Yu turned his head and asked Red Oriole.
Red Oriole chuckled, "Wouldn't I be letting myself down if I don't go? This is a reward of 100,000 merit points, I don't want to give it up. Moreover, our follow-up mission this time is to reinforce the Ascetic Alliance, so the danger is much lower than before. It would be a waste not to go. "
"Well said. I also intend to continue participating. Now, let's vote by a show of hands. If you want to continue participating, you can stay here. If you don't want to continue, you can go collect your reward. Let's part ways here."
The burly man, Dao Qing, looked around and said solemnly to everyone.
"I'll join."
Tian Cang and Hai Shu were naturally on the same side as Dao Qing. Since Dao Qing was participating, the two of them had no reason not to participate. All three of them were from the Colossal Wing Galaxy, where the various races were known for their unity. Especially now that the rewards were better, they could not back down.
"I'll join too."
The Firebird Hegemon nodded as well, quickly coming to a decision. As far as he was concerned, he had reached a bottleneck in the Martial Dao. If he wanted to increase his cultivation base, the easiest way was to experience life-and-death battles and attempt to make a breakthrough!
Therefore, the Firebird Hegemon did not participate in this mission for the 100,000 merit points. His main goal was to break through the bottleneck in his cultivation base and step into a higher Martial Dao Realm.
"There's still us."
On the other side, the Purple Skywolf and the Black Flood Dragon, two Yao cultivators, also stood up, indicating that they would continue participating in the reinforcement mission. These two Yao cultivators were quite strong, at least much stronger than the other first-stage Sovereigns.
The Black Flood Dragon had mastered the power of the dual-attribute Divine Text of Black Thunder. Its power was not much weaker than the power of the revelation-level Divine Text. Moreover, he had completely mastered it, and when combined with his divine abilities and martial techniques, he could unleash extremely terrifying power. When Dao Qing's team was attacked by the second Ice God Sovereign, the Black Flood Dragon had contributed greatly to the team.
As for the Purple Skywolf, he had mastered a first-grade Divine Array, Sky Fiend, which could summon countless purple lightning bolts to bombard the opponent. First-grade Divine Arrays were rumored to be the key to the Demigod Realm, so it was obvious how powerful they were.
Although not every cultivator who had mastered a first-grade Divine Array could step into the Demigod Realm, if one wanted to step into the Demigod Realm, it was necessary to practice a first-grade Divine Array. This was because a Divine Array was actually the mastery of the Divine Text. After mastering a first-grade Divine Array, the cultivator could master the Divine Text of that element to the peak, and naturally, it would be easier for them to step into the Demigod Realm.
Seeing that all the experts in the team had chosen to continue with the mission, the handsome young man of the Divine Wood Yao Clan, Han Hen, also stood up. "I'll also participate in the follow-up reinforcement mission. After all, we're reinforcing the Ascetic Alliance. We might not even have to do much, and we can easily get double the reward. Why not?"
The other first-stage Sovereigns all nodded in agreement. None of the thirteen people, including Long Yu and Red Oriole, chose to withdraw.
"Alright, if that's the case, we'll set off as a small team. We've worked together before, so if we meet another opponent, it'll be easier for us to deal with them."
When Dao Qing saw that no one had withdrawn, he immediately revealed a rough smile. He had been worried that if too many people withdrew, it would increase the difficulty of the reinforcement mission. However, it seemed that his worries were unnecessary.
Of course, it was easier with more people. Although the Ascetic Alliance already had more than two hundred Sovereigns escorting this large batch of Fierce Fire Talismans, the more reinforcements there were, the better the chances of success.
"This time, when we go to reinforce, it's very likely that we'll encounter the Ice God Clan Sovereigns from before, including the Long-Horned Ice God Clan Sovereigns and the Pentagonal Ice Crystal Sovereign. After they retreated, there's no way they would leave this area. They must have received news that they were sent to deal with the Ascetic Alliance."
Red Oriole pondered for a moment and guessed.
"That's right. The thirteen of us are relatively familiar with those two Ice God Clan Sovereigns. If we encounter them again, the chances of us killing them are not low. We'll have to rely on you guys," a first-stage Sovereign said with a nod.
A first-stage Hegemon nodded, his gaze focused on Redbird, Daoqing, and the Firebird Hegemon.
This feeling of being ignored seemed to make Han Hen of the Divine Wood Demonic Tribe very uncomfortable. However, this handsome youth didn't say anything. After all, it was an indisputable fact that Red Oriole and the others were stronger than him. There was no point in him retorting, and he couldn't change the opinions of others.
It should be known that even Han Hen himself was like this. He was now extremely respectful to Red Oriole and didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction. However, he was still the same towards Long Yu. This was because he looked down on the weak. At the end of the day, it was the same reason why others looked down on him.
However, this made Han Hen secretly decide that as long as he had the chance, he would definitely show off his strength and let these people see what he, Han Hen, was capable of!
Most importantly, after the battle with the Ice God Clan Sovereigns, Han Hen's Battle Weapon seemed to have reached a higher level of compatibility, reaching the highest level, the Unparalleled Realm. That way, the Battle Weapon would develop its own consciousness, and its power would increase by at least tenfold!
Unparalleled compatibility was the highest level of compatibility between a cultivator and the Battle Weapon. It allowed the cultivator to unleash all the power of the Battle Weapon, and some might even surpass it. If it was used in conjunction with an Unbounded martial skill, the explosive power would be absolutely astonishing.
Even for Long Yu, with the exception of the Netherworld Dragon Dagger, he hadn't reached the Unparalleled Realm with any other Battle Weapon. Furthermore, the Netherworld Dragon Dagger's grade was too low. If he didn't find a way to improve it, it would probably become less and less useful to Long Yu in the future.
That was something that Long Yu had always kept in mind. Unfortunately, it wasn't that easy to improve the grade of a Battle Weapon. Otherwise, there wouldn't be so many low-grade Battle Weapons in the world.
According to what Red Oriole and Concubine Yu had said, there were two things that needed to be done to improve the quality of the Void Netherdragon Blade. The first was to find a precious material known as the "Primordial Origin", and the second was to have the help of a reliable weapon refinement master.
Long Yu wasn't worried about the weapon refiner. With the wretched old man Wei Yuyan around, it shouldn't be difficult to improve the Netherworld Dragon Dagger's grade. The problem was that the precious material, the Primordial Essence, was simply too difficult to find.
If one was lucky, the Primordial Essence could be found anywhere in the world. After all, it was the origin of the Primordial Five Elements. Simply put, it was the power that existed before the Primordial Five Elements were born!
However, the Primordial Origin only existed for a short period of time. No matter where it was nurtured, it would quickly transform into the purest Primordial Five Elements Power. Because of this, it was extremely difficult to obtain the Primordial Origin.
It was safe to say that almost all the cultivators in the world wanted to improve the grade of their most commonly used Battle Weapon. However, the amount of the Primordial Essence that they could obtain was very little. In the entire territory of the Demon Race, it could only be seen a few times in a year. It was more about luck than strength. That was the most difficult part. Even for a demigod, it wasn't easy to obtain the Primordial Essence.
…
After they decided to continue with the reinforcement mission, they soon prepared to set off. Before they set off, they bought some Fierce Fire Runes in the market of the battlecruiser fortress.
The Fierce Fire Runes weren't exclusive to a legion on the battlefield. As long as one knew how to refine them, any weapon refiner with a certain level could refine them and use them in battle.
