Recommending Oneself
When he instigated the 10,000 Swords Pavilion and the Ancient Star Sect, Chu Xingyun had already predicted that the Divine Wind Palace and the Daluo Golden Sect would not be willing to be left out. They would use all kinds of methods to display their wild ambitions.
Therefore, Chu Xingyun had been secretly thinking of a plan to resist the attacks of the Divine Firmament Palace and the Daluo Golden Sect and buy precious time.
Just as he had said, the monster tide triggered by the Revenant's Habitat could isolate the Divine Firmament Palace and the Daluo Golden Sect, but it would quickly dissipate as long as the monster tide was suppressed.
At that time, the Divine Firmament Palace and the Daluo Golden Sect would definitely seize the opportunity to attack without restraint.
To some extent, the outbreak of the monster tide was a sharp blade that could completely destroy the schemes of the Divine Firmament Palace and the Daluo Golden Sect, preventing the eighteen ancient cities and the eighteen dynasties from erupting into chaos.
On the other hand, Yanxiang Pass was a shield that stood on the eastern and western borders. It could resist the attacks of the Divine Firmament Palace and the Daluo Golden Sect, firmly guarding the last line of defense.
Therefore, the importance of Yanxiang Pass was self-evident.
Chu Xingyun's arrangements for Yanxiang Pass were still somewhat crude. Even with the help of Wu Jing Xue, he did not dare to be careless. He had to be meticulous in everything and think deeply about everything.
Just as Chu Xingyun was deep in thought, a familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears. "Relying on a dangerous place to forcefully resist the attacks of two great sects, I'm afraid only a kid like you can think of such a crazy move."
He opened his eyes and saw two figures slowly walking over from the void in front of him.
One of them was dressed in coarse hemp clothes and had a hunched back, as if a gust of wind could blow him away. He gave off a strong feeling of weakness.
The other person wore a green robe and had a composed bearing. Even though he was already old, every single move he made revealed a wisp of an indifferent and unrestrained feeling. Even more surprising was that this person's body actually didn't have the slightest aura of vitality or Death, and it was strange to the extreme.
These two people were Lin Tianchong and Mowang Gong.
"Seniors, why are you here?"
Chu Xingyun exclaimed when he saw the two people clearly. Judging from Lin Tianchong's words, it was obvious that the two of them had heard the conversation between him and Wu Jing Xue.
Lin Tianchong and Mowang Gong landed gently. Seeing Chu Xingyun's surprised expression, they looked at each other with smiles in their eyes.
Mowang Gong took the lead and said, "Wu Jing Xue led the three thousand Jingtian Army to suppress the eighteen ancient cities. During this period, the Army had experienced many fierce battles, and it was inevitable that there would be some damage. Therefore, I specially rushed to the Ancient Star Sect......."
Strictly speaking, Wu Jing Xue and the three thousand Jingtian Army were no longer human. They were spiritual puppets. They didn't feel pain and didn't fear death. But on the other hand, once they were injured, they couldn't recover on their own. Mowang Gong had to heal them personally.
Because of this, it was natural for Mowang Gong to appear in the Ancient Star Sect.
Chu Xingyun nodded slightly. Just as he was about to look away, Lin Tianchong's voice sounded. He said resentfully, "The Beast Tide has affected the eighteen dynasties and the eighteen ancient cities. There is danger everywhere. The matter of repairing the Jingtian Army can't be delayed. In the entire Wanjian Pavilion, only I can accompany and escort you."
Lin Tianchong's cultivation had reached the sixth stage of Nirvana Realm. A mere Beast Tide couldn't stop him.
Moreover, after Chu Xingyun's enfeoffment, all the people in Wanjian Pavilion, regardless of whether they were disciples or elders, were burdened with heavy responsibilities and couldn't leave at all.
In contrast, Lin Tianchong was much more relaxed. He was the best choice for escort.
"Originally, when we were about to leave Saint Star City, we heard the conversation between you and Wu Jing Xue. I didn't expect that you had secretly set up a scheme to resist the invasion of the Daluo Golden Sect and the Divine Wind Palace. What's more, I didn't expect that you didn't inform me about such an exciting thing!" Lin Tianchong fiercely glared at Chu Xingyun. There was a trace of blame in his voice, but more than that, there was excitement. His entire body was brimming with excitement.
"As the saying goes, those who see it have a share. Since I know about this matter, I have the right to participate. Ba Dao of the Daluo Golden Sect and Gu Zhong of the Divine Wind Palace, I've long wanted to learn from them!" Lin Tianchong added. He looked a little crazy and unreasonable.
Seeing Lin Tianchong's appearance, Chu Xingyun didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
He didn't intend to deliberately hide the matter at Yanxiang Pass. However, the significance of this matter was profound and it had to be carefully planned. He didn't expect that Lin Tianchong would take the initiative to participate and be so enthusiastic.
"This matter is interesting. I also want to participate." Just as Chu Xingyun smiled bitterly, Mowang Gong, who had been smiling silently, opened his mouth. His short words made Chu Xingyun's pupils tremble. He stared at him, full of disbelief.
Mowang Gong was also half human and half puppet. He was immortal and indestructible. However, he was completely different from Wu Jing Xue. The former didn't like to cultivate. He only focused on studying the way of wooden armor. His cultivation wasn't high, only at the first level of Yin Yang.
Moreover, Chu Xingyun knew that Mowang Gong didn't like killing and rarely participated in wars. However, at this moment, he took the initiative to participate in the battle at Yanxiang Pass. This was really unexpected.
Mowang Gong had already guessed Chu Xingyun's reaction, so he wasn't surprised. He said calmly, "Chu Xingyun, you have read the ancient books. You are no stranger to the existence of the Nature Work Sect. You even know a lot of secrets of the Nature Work Sect."
Chu Xingyun heard Mowang Gong's words and nodded in response. He didn't say much and listened quietly.
"Back then, the Nature Work Sect was an ancient sect with countless disciples and a vast territory. Almost everyone was proficient in the way of wooden armor. They could control countless spiritual puppets and greatly improve their strength."
"However, it was such a tyrannical Nature Work Sect that eventually declined and even perished. It only existed in the long river of history. During the long years of hiding in the Nature Work Secret Realm, I began to constantly reflect on this problem and find the root cause."
When Mowang Gong spoke, he raised his eyes slightly. His eyes were full of memories, and there was a trace of disappointment in his voice.
The Nature Work Sect was proficient in the way of wooden armor and could control countless spiritual puppets. It was no exaggeration to say that the existence of an elite disciple was comparable to a small team. Their strength was extremely terrifying.
A single person was already so terrifying, let alone a magnificent sect.
Unfortunately, the outcome of the Nature Work Sect was still decline and perish. As the master of the Nature Work Sect, Mowang Gong was also full of doubts about this. Even if he turned into a remnant soul, he was still constantly thinking.
"Until one day, I finally understood." Mowang Gong spoke again. His eyes suddenly looked at Chu Xingyun and said word by word, "The reason why the Nature Work Sect declined was because of the lack of strategy!"
Mowang Gong took a deep breath and said heavily, "The Nature Work Sect controlled countless spiritual puppets. Its strength was tyrannical and invincible. However, no one in the Nature Work Sect knew how to mobilize troops, let alone analyze the state of the battle."
"It's like a child with a sharp sword. Even if the sword is unparalleled and can cut everything in the world, he still can't defeat a strong enemy if he doesn't know the sword technique and sword momentum."
"Ever since I understood this point, I began to study the way of the military and read through all the ancient military manuals. My goal was to verify my understanding, and now, this opportunity is in front of me."
