There was actually more than one way to obtain battle merits.
However, killing Barbarians was the most direct way. The other way was to accept missions.
There would be some missions listed in the battle fort, and completing them would give the corresponding battle merits as a reward. The minimum reward was ten points, while the maximum reward was hundreds or even thousands of points. However, completing missions often required time and risk.
However, if missions were combined with killing Barbarians, the speed of obtaining battle merits would be greatly increased.
Li Hanchao was a true disciple of the Heart Chen Palace of the Will Heavenly Palace. He was a fellow disciple of the same sect as Chen Zong. Although this was the first time they met, he was very responsible. Not only did he inform Chen Zong of various things to pay attention to, but he also gave Chen Zong many suggestions in the end.
For example, it would be relatively safer to take on patrol missions first and use a few years to familiarize himself with the environment here.
Chen Zong thought about it and rejected the suggestion.
The battle merits of patrol missions were too little, and the duration was too long. A patrol mission would last at least three months, and he would only be rewarded with ten battle merits.
He wanted to obtain 100,000 battle merits. Ten battle merits were like a drop in the bucket. How many patrol missions would he have to carry out to obtain that amount? The cost was too shocking.
For example, the three seven-star Barbarian Warriors he had killed when he came here were worth 21 battle merits.
Thinking of the three Barbarian Warriors who had attacked him but were killed by him, Chen Zong immediately took out their corpses.
"This is …" Li Hanchao was slightly startled and focused his eyes.
"Senior Brother, this is the Barbarian Warrior I killed when I was 40,000 light miles away from the battle fort," Chen Zong said unhurriedly.
"40,000 light miles!" Li Hanchao's tone suddenly became very serious.
40,000 light miles sounded very far, but it was actually not far at all. With the speed of a Yuan Underworld expert, he could cross it very quickly.
It was very shocking that there were Barbarian Warriors hiding 40,000 light miles away from the battle fort.
One had to know that there were quite a few Path Manipulation Realm cultivators who had taken on patrol missions. They usually moved in groups and patrolled everywhere, covering at least a hundred thousand light miles. Theoretically speaking, the Demon Barbarian Warriors should not have been able to sneak in.
"Junior Brother, are you sure?" Li Hanchao's tone was very serious, and his expression was very serious.
"I'm sure." Chen Zong sounded very certain.
"This is no small matter. Junior brother, I will gather the other generals first. When the time comes, I will need you to explain everything in detail." Li Hanchao said in a serious tone. He was afraid that Chen Zong would resist, so he explained the seriousness of the matter.
Hidden Demon Barbarian Warriors had appeared forty thousand light miles away from the battle fort, which was very shocking. If they were not careful, there might be Demon Barbarian Warriors hiding even closer, which would be a hidden danger.
Therefore, it was necessary to gather the other Great Generals.
After issuing the summons, Li Hanchao and Chen Zong quickly rushed to the Conference Hall.
Five of the ten Yuan Underworld Generals left the fortress to fend off the Barbarian Braves as much as possible.
"Han Chao, what is the important matter you mentioned?"
As soon as Li Hanchao led Chen Zong into the Great Council Hall, a loud voice rang out like a large bell. It was a black man with a very strong physique. He wore a short robe and looked tall and sturdy, as if he contained an extremely terrifying power.
He was a Yuan Underworld Body Refinement cultivator. The aura emitted by his tyrannical physique formed a shocking suppression on the surroundings.
The other three Great Generals were also present. All of their auras were restrained, but there were still traces of them that permeated the surroundings, forming a suppression.
Immediately after, numerous gazes landed on Chen Zong, immediately exerting an extremely strong pressure on him. However, Chen Zong's willpower was strong and far surpassed the Dao Controlling Realm. In fact, it was even comparable to the Yuanming Realm. Therefore, his calm and unruffled expression made people secretly admire him.
"Li Hanchao, don't tell me the important matter you mentioned is to bring a Dao Manipulation Realm expert here?" Suddenly, one of them smiled with a hint of sarcasm. Then, he suddenly looked enlightened. "Don't tell me this person is from the Will Heavenly Palace. Haha, the Will Heavenly Palace is indeed amazing, but everyone is the same here. Li Hanchao, don't be too self-righteous."
Chen Zong knew that this person didn't get along with Senior Brother Li.
Even if there were external enemies, there were still many conflicts of interest within the Human Race. This wasn't surprising.
There were always some people who liked to engage in internal strife, or were narrow-minded and jealous of others.
"General Yunshe, General Han Chao is not someone who doesn't know the severity of the situation." On the other side, an old man in a green robe smiled. His tone and expression were gentle, and his voice seemed to have the power to calm people's hearts.
This old man seemed to have some prestige. General Yunshe snorted softly and didn't say anything else.
General Han Chao waved his hand and the corpses of three Barbarian Warriors appeared in front of everyone.
"What are you doing? Showing off?" General Yunshe spoke again, as if he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't mock General Han Chao. "Even if you want to show off, you should show off the corpses of the Barbarian Warriors, not the Barbarian Warriors."
"Everyone, these three corpses of the Barbarian Warriors are the important matter I want to talk about." Li Hanchao ignored General Yunshe's sarcasm and glanced at them calmly. "This is Chen Zong, the fifth true disciple of the Will Heavenly Palace's Will Heavenly Palace."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's expression turned solemn.
Will Heavenly Palace!
It was a palace established by Heavenly Lord Will Heavenly Palace. It was said that Heavenly Lord Will Heavenly Palace was very powerful, and his battle strength was monstrous.
The fifth true disciple was definitely not ordinary.
"I, Chen Shidi of the Heavenly Palace, came to serve. I was attacked by these three Barbarian Warriors forty thousand light miles away from the fortress and killed them." General Han Chao said again.
This simple sentence caused the expressions of the four Great Generals to change drastically, and they were all shocked.
"Are you sure?" The green-robed elder looked solemn.
At this time, it was Chen Zong's turn to speak. Chen Zong did not hide anything. He told them everything in detail, from the first patrol he encountered. He even told them the location of the attack.
Everyone's expression became more and more solemn.
"Damn it, how did these Barbarians sneak in?" The tower-like Body Refining Expert said angrily.
This wasn't a small matter, it was a big matter because three Barbarians had sneaked in, which meant that more Barbarians would sneak in. If so many Barbarian Warriors and even Barbarian Warriors sneaked in, it would be a disaster for the fortress.
Next, the five Great Generals naturally had a secret meeting. Chen Zong got up and left first.
Returning to his residence, Chen Zong began to think about how to get more merit points.
Chen Zong roughly knew his master's intention of asking him to serve for a hundred years or to get 100,000 merit points.
The key was to get 100,000 merit points. The conditions for serving for a hundred years were the same. It was not difficult to get 100,000 merit points. He only needed to guard the fortress. However, that was the most inconspicuous way.
Gaining merit points was a way to prove himself.
100,000 merit points was definitely not a small number. In fact, it was a lot.
However, the title of Wushuang that his master gave him was indeed extraordinary. Perhaps, if he really wanted to get this title, he would have to put in more effort to prove himself.
Merit points!
Killing Barbarian Warriors was a must. Chen Zong also intended to do so. However, how could he get more merit points while killing Barbarian Warriors?
That was missions!
Patrol missions were not necessary. They were time-consuming and low-reward, so they were ruled out.
However, except for patrol missions, there were few other missions, and they would be taken as soon as they appeared. Therefore, they were quite rare.
About an hour later, Li Hanchao came to see Chen Zong in person. He looked serious and seemed to be unhappy.
"Senior Brother Li, what's wrong?" Chen Zong knew something was wrong when he saw Li Hanchao's expression.
"I'm sorry, Junior Brother." Li Hanchao sighed slightly and immediately apologized to Chen Zong.
"Senior Brother, why do you say that?" Chen Zong asked in reply.
"Just now, the five of us had a discussion about the invasion of Barbarian Warriors. Finally, we made a decision to lure them out," Li Hanchao said seriously.
"Senior Brother, am I the bait?" Chen Zong thought for a moment and immediately understood.
"Yes." Li Hanchao's heart was heavy. It was General Yunshe's idea to let Chen Zong be the bait, but it was supported by the other three generals. Li Hanchao's repeated objections were useless.
This was the rule in the fortress. Once more generals agreed, it was basically settled.
The minority followed the majority.
"Junior Brother, I'm sorry, I …" Li Hanchao said again, full of regret.
"Senior Brother, you don't have to be like this," Chen Zong smiled, "since you want to lure them out, let me be the bait. It's a mission, right?"
"It's a mission." Li Hanchao nodded.
"Since it's a mission, how many merits will I get?" Chen Zong asked again.
"One hundred." Li Hanchao was a little embarrassed to say it.
However, the number of merits for a mission was decided by a vote after the generals discussed it together.
"One hundred merits is too little." Chen Zong said directly, "Senior Brother, please make a request for me. One thousand merits, and you can spread the news about my identity first. Then, I'll go out alone to attract the Barbarian Warriors. If there are more lurkers around, I believe they will take action."
"No, Junior Brother, it's too risky." Li Hanchao immediately refused.
This was the battlefield, not other places. Once he became the bait, the possibility of death was very high.
Moreover, he had to spread the news about his identity first.
A true disciple of Will Heavenly Palace!
This alone was enough to make many Barbarian Warriors want to kill him. Every time a true disciple of Will Heavenly Palace came out, the Barbarian Race would suffer a lot of casualties.
Of course, it was the same for true disciples of Will Heavenly Palace and Eternal Battle Fort. Basically, all true disciples from the major sects had the same treatment in the Barbarian Race.
Moreover, Chen Zong's identity was not an ordinary true disciple, but an elite one.
"Senior Brother, don't worry. Master has given me some life-saving means." Chen Zong smiled, full of confidence.
"Well, in that case, I won't persuade you." Li Hanchao nodded after thinking for a while, "Don't worry, I'll follow you secretly. If there's any danger, I'll act immediately."
"If that's the case, I'll have to thank Senior Brother." Chen Zong bowed.
