The Yue Province was located in the southeast of the Central Prefecture. After leaving the Jiuyuan Mountain Range, it was the territory of the Yue Province.
The Sky Mist Dynasty ruled over the entire Yue Province in name, but in reality, as one of the eight sacred grounds, the Body Sect was the supreme existence in the Yue Province.
Thus, even though there were many cultivators and sects in the Yue Province, the ones who truly stood at the peak of the cultivation world in the Yue Province were the body cultivators.
The four great clans of the Yue Province were all body cultivator clans and were related to the Body Sect.
Xie Tian changed his appearance and looked like he was ten years old. He flew silently and after a day, he finally saw the first big city of the Sky Mist Dynasty, Jiuyuan City.
"Cultivators need to pay a hundred spirit stones to enter the city. Body cultivators can enter directly!"
The guard's words made Xie Tian feel the glory of being a body cultivator for the first time in his life. However, he was confused about the Sky Mist Dynasty's actions.
"This action will deepen the conflict between cultivators and body cultivators. Why is the Sky Mist Dynasty doing this?"
After thinking about it, Xie Tian gradually had a guess. The Body Sect was far stronger than he had imagined, which was why they were able to intimidate the entire Yue Province.
"Fortunately, my mission does not require me to enter the Body Sect. I only need to investigate the military situation of the Sky Mist Dynasty and that Fangcun Mountain!"
After randomly choosing an inn and resting for a while, Xie Tian started to think about his future plans.
"The best way to investigate the military situation of the Sky Mist Dynasty is to enter the military. However, the imperial court has always been strict in appointing and dismissing officials. My identity cannot pass the investigation!"
Excluding this method, there was only one path left for Xie Tian, and that was to join the army of the Sky Mist Dynasty. Furthermore, he could only join the border army.
Not only because the border army had many military merits, but also because the Sky Mist Imperial Army would also strictly investigate the identity and background of the soldiers.
"Jiuyuan City may be a border city, but it is too close to the Central Prefecture. If my identity is exposed, the She Family's influence is enough to affect this place!"
Thinking about this, a map of the Yue Province appeared in Xie Tian's mind. Not long later, he opened his eyes and muttered, "Shangyou City!"
Other than the Central Prefecture, the Yue Province was also connected to the Lan Province to the northeast. Although the two provinces did not have any major conflicts, the necessary military defense was still needed. Shangyou City was the border city near the Lan Province.
However, Xie Tian was still a bit hesitant. This was because Shangyou City was also under the You Family's control.
"I've changed my appearance. If I act carefully, I shouldn't be exposed. But it's best if I can find a reliable identity."
After thinking about it, the threat of the She Clan was still the greatest. Xie Tian finally made a decision. Then, he sat cross-legged to recuperate and strive to refine the last 10% of the divine ability power in his body.
The next morning, Xie Tian went to the relay station in Jiuyuan City.
In the entire Nine States Major World, only the Central State's Jin dynasty had a Teleportation Formation. Other provinces basically relied on Spirit Boats to travel.
After paying several thousand spirit stones, Xie Tian boarded the spirit boat and entered an ordinary cabin. Just as he was about to heal his injuries, he glanced at the cabin door and closed his eyes to meditate.
"Brother, did you see it clearly?"
"There's no mistaking it. He took out several thousand spirit stones without even counting them."
"That's definitely pretentious. Why didn't he take the You Family's Spirit Boat to Shangyou City? He wouldn't have to stop along the way. Why did he have to take this ordinary Spirit Boat? It's time-consuming and expensive!"
The fat and skinny men chatted for a long time before sneaking away.
The Spirit Boat moved and stopped. Three days passed, and they had traveled less than two million miles.
Xie Tian didn't care about the slow speed. If he wanted to be fast, he could just run. His abundant essence Yang could allow him to run for ten days without rest. In terms of speed, it was comparable to the Spirit Boat to Shangyou City.
"Huff!"
After letting out a mouthful of impure air, Xie Tian's body relaxed. The last trace of divine ability power was very stubborn. He used a full three days to refine it.
However, this was a blessing in disguise. After refining this power, his Evil Body was slowly changing.
Of course, he was also clear that the quality of the divine ability power was too high. Even if the Evil Body changed, it wouldn't be able to ignore the divine ability power.
Feeling the changes in the Evil Body, Xie Tian relaxed. He released his Evil Kill slightly and found the aura of the fat and skinny men.
Six days later, the Spirit Boat finally arrived at Shangyou City. Xie Tian got off the Spirit Boat and walked to the most remote place.
"Boss, are we really going to steal it?"
"Brother, the best thing in the world is the spirit stones in other people's storage bags!"
"Boss, I'll go first!"
In the middle of the alley, Xie Tian stopped and smiled.
The fat man who was blocking the way felt his body go numb from Xie Tian's smile. Before he could do anything, he saw his skinny big brother use his palm as a knife and chop towards the fat sheep's neck.
Bang!
"Ah!"
The fat man looked at the skinny big brother screaming as he flew backwards.
Half an hour later, the fat and skinny duo knelt in front of Xie Tian and begged for mercy with tears streaming down their faces.
"Let me introduce myself."
"I, I am Hu Tai, he is Hu Pi. The two of us have no parents and followed a Master. We wanted to enter the Body Sect, but we were rejected because of our appearances!"
Using the Soul Art, Xie Tian confirmed that the two of them were speaking the truth and was delighted.
"From today onwards, I am Hu Lai. The three of us are from the same sect. We were adopted by Master when we were young and we depend on each other. The two of you, make an oath!"
The fat and skinny duo did not dare to resist. After making the oath, Hu Tai said weakly, "Junior … Junior Brother!"
"En!"
"Senior Brother, Senior Brother!" Hu Tai quickly changed his words. "I just wanted to ask, when … when will you let us go?"
"One or two years."
Xie Tian sighed. A Grade Nine Mission was at most two years. In such a short time, even someone as strong as him could not guarantee that he could complete the mission.
"When the time comes, I will let you go, and all the spirit stones on me will belong to you."
The currency of the Nine States World was spirit stones. They were divided into four grades: Mortal, Supreme, and Supreme. The higher the grade, the richer and purer the Spirit Qi.
Mortal grade could be used to cultivate in the Dharma Power and True Essence realms. Supreme grade could be used to cultivate in the Demonic Qi and Pill Tribulation realms. Supreme grade could be used to cultivate in the Soul Transformation Realm. Supreme grade could be used to cultivate in Lu Xian.
To reassure the two of them, Xie Tian gave them one hundred thousand mortal grade spirit stones. One death camp merit could be exchanged for a hundred spirit stones. He could have as many as he wanted.
"Senior Brother, this …"
"Listen to me. I will not harm you. If you don't, don't blame me for being rude. Let's go."
When he said the word "rude", Xie Tian released a trace of murderous aura. The two of them felt as if they had fallen into an ice cave. They looked at each other in horror and realized how terrifying their new senior brother was.
"Big, Big Brother, how many people did he have to kill?"
"Shut up. From today onwards, he is our father!"
Two hours later, as Xie Tian wished, the three of them successfully entered the Shangyou Army and became ordinary soldiers.
The border of Shangyou City had been peaceful for many years and there were almost no wars. Xie Tian was a little unhappy about this. Without wars, there would be no military merit. Without military merit, how could he be promoted and get close to the military?
"Maybe it can be like this!"
Three days later, the new soldiers were led by the veterans to the True Breath Mountain Range at the border of Yue and Lan Prefectures.
"Little brats, this will be our cemetery in the future. Set up camp here tonight and experience this desolate and harsh atmosphere. We will return to camp tomorrow!"
The new soldiers trembled in fear when they heard the word cemetery. When night fell, all kinds of nightmares and howls rose and fell.
The veterans laughed heartily, but they did not know that three new soldiers had snuck out of the camp and were heading towards Lan Prefecture.
At this moment, in the Heaven Expansion Second Camp of the Jin Dynasty in Zhongzhou, the weather had changed.
After cultivating hard for close to a month, Xie Tian had improved by leaps and bounds. He had reached the tenth level of the Dharmic Power Realm and the Dao Fruit had appeared.
Such a cultivation speed nearly scared the group of Great Perfection Xiantian geniuses who were determined to become the second Xie Tian to death!
"This speed is comparable to the fifteen in the seventh camp!"
"Three-hundred-foot auspicious cloud, this, this is the supreme Dao Fruit!"
"So what if it's the supreme Dao Fruit? Wait for him to break through and send him to the killing platform!"
Inside the camp, Xie Tian did not immediately feel his supreme Dao Fruit. Instead, he was observing the Indestructible Body.
"This body is very strange. When cultivating, it actually has an additional effect on the cultivation technique. The longer I cultivate, the more terrifying the effect!"
Apart from the cultivation speed of one realm per month, what shocked Xie Tian even more was that in just a month, his Army God Art had reached thirty-five waves!
"Only those with the bloodline of the She Family can achieve great success?"
Xie Tian smiled coldly and immediately changed his mind and walked out of the camp.
"Your She Family dares to boast, then I will let this world have another person who has achieved great success in the Army God Art!"
