After leaving the military merit exchange office, Xu Chunniang returned to the base of Group 6 and sent a message to Lan He.
After receiving the message, Lan He arrived soon after. "Has the military merit of the Minotaur been properly exchanged?"
Xu Chunniang nodded slightly, took out the bones of the minotaur, completed the transaction with Lan He, and obtained the remaining four points of military merit.
"Thank you very much. If you find the corpse of a half-orc in the Void Refining Stage in the future, you can come to me to trade. I will never let you suffer any loss in terms of military merit."
Xu Chunniang seemed to be thinking about something. For someone like Lan He to exchange military merits for the corpses of orcs, a lot of military merits would be consumed.
Why didn't he use his military merits to offset his years of service and leave the Black Tiger Army as soon as possible
As if seeing her confusion, Lan He smiled faintly.
“The Black Tiger Army is indeed dangerous, but staying in the Black Tiger Army allows us to obtain resources in the fastest and most direct way. Generally speaking, the risk and benefit are 50-50.
With the cultivation of the Void Refining Stage, I can almost protect myself. Of course, if I am unlucky enough to meet a powerful person in the Fusion Stage, then I will be unlucky. "
There was a hint of self-mockery in Lan He's tone. Having reached his level of practice, every bit of improvement was extremely difficult.
Fortune and wealth are achieved through risk. If one does not have the courage to risk his life, then his lifelong practice will basically be over.
A trace of helplessness flashed across Lan He's eyes, "When you reach the Void Refining Stage and the spiritual energy in the spiritual world can no longer satisfy your daily practice, you will naturally understand.
For ordinary monks like us who have no background, the Black Tiger Army is actually a good place to go. At least here, there are endless orcs to kill."
From the conversation with Lan He, Xu Chunniang further realized the current situation of human cultivators.
The spiritual world is vast, and with billions of people practicing, how many can actually ascend to the Tao
It is extremely difficult for most people to cultivate to the fusion stage.
The cruel reality has caused the human cultivators to no longer focus on cultivation and the pursuit of ascension, but instead to engage in intrigue and competition for a few cultivation resources.
For them, no matter how hard they practice, it is difficult to achieve the desired result, so they might as well get more resources to enhance their strength and accumulate their cultivation.
Lan He sighed, "Our human race's territory in the spiritual world is not large, but the number of cultivators is constantly increasing, which is one of the reasons why we ordinary cultivators are in a difficult situation.
The only way to break the impasse is to completely defeat the orcs and expand our territory."
But the orcs are not pushovers. If the human race's great masters and several major forces do not make any efforts, it will be a fantasy to defeat the orcs relying solely on the monks in the fusion stage in the army.
As he was speaking, a faint fluctuation suddenly came from the military order that Lan He carried with him.
Lan He's expression changed. "It's the team leader's news. He has escaped the orcs' pursuit and should be able to return to the base soon."
He picked up the military order and was about to reply when he suddenly frowned.
Xu Chunniang observed his expression and asked, "What's wrong? Did something unexpected happen?"
After sending several messages, Lan He put away the military order and shook his head slowly.
"The team leader said that he killed an orc leader. Through soul searching, we learned that the orc army is likely to attack the camp at night. Tonight, let us be prepared."
Xu Chunniang's heart trembled, and she subconsciously looked around the entire camp.
There are ten teams in the camp, all under the unified command of Yan Ruyu. Each team has no more than ten people, most of whom are cultivators in the God Transformation Stage.
"Did the team leader tell us how many orcs there are in the invading army?"
"Based on past experience, it is very likely that it is a group of 100 people led by a powerful person in the Fusion Stage."
Lan He looked solemn. "I have already informed Senior Yan Ruyu about this matter. She is on her way. You don't have to be too nervous. Just follow her arrangements."
After finishing his words hastily, Lan He was in no mood to stay here any longer and walked towards the bases of other groups.
Xu Chunniang withdrew her gaze and slowly walked back to her tent.
Wang Tianhu was a little surprised. "The orc army is coming to kill you, but you are so patient."
"What else can we do? Become a deserter?"
Xu Chunniang said in a leisurely tone, "Since the purpose of those high and mighty masters is to collect the power of faith, I think they will not let the human race lose too badly."
"That's true."
Wang Tianhu agreed, "When the fight really starts, all that matters is that you don't die."
Xu Chunniang smiled, "Don't worry, if I really encounter a life-or-death crisis, I will definitely throw you into the small world before I die. With the stability of the small world now, you will be trapped in it for thousands of years and you will never be able to escape."
Wangtianhu's nose was almost crooked with anger, and even the Soul-Calming Pot was shaking slightly.
"We have been working together for such a long time, do you really have to treat me like this?"
Xu Chunniang's lips curled slightly, "So you have to work harder later, and you must save my life. We are now in the same boat, and if one suffers, we will suffer together."
Wangtianhu suddenly became dejected. Why did he feel that he had suffered a huge loss by doing business with this cunning human
First he was thrown out like a sandbag, and then he had to find ways to save her life. He was ordered around by the little human cultivator. He should be the most miserable Sky-Watching Hound in history!
Wangtianhu felt so regretful in his heart. If he had known this would happen, he should not have gone to look for the soul-guarding grass.
There is no other way to keep the promise you made in person.
After receiving the news, Yan Ruyu quickly rushed back to the base and made a series of deployments.
"All teams listen up. The orcs may attack at any time. One team is responsible for vigilance. If you find any signs of trouble, report to me immediately."
Xu Chunniang finally met the leader of Group 6 and another surviving monk.
The leader of Group Six is a cultivator in the late stage of the Refinement Void Realm. He has a fair complexion, a feminine appearance, and speaks in a soft and gentle voice.
Perhaps for this reason, everyone called him the White Jade Scholar.
He glanced at the three newcomers, Xu Chunniang, Tang Yue and Guo Xuelian, and immediately looked at her differently after learning that Xu Chunniang controlled a powerful spiritual fire that could burn to death a minotaur in the Nascent Soul stage.
"You will stay by my side and help me kill the enemies. We will split the military merits 30% and 70% respectively."
Upon hearing this, the way others looked at Xu Chunniang immediately changed.
It was a great honor for a mere cultivator in the middle stage of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, with his purple mansion collapsed and his spiritual power dispersed, to be appreciated by the White Jade Scholar and to accompany him into battle to kill the enemies.
Not to mention, you can also get 30% of the military merit.
Faced with Bai Yushusheng's appreciation, Xu Chunniang refused without a second thought.
"To be honest, the black flame is not mine. It is the magical power of the magic weapon. It takes a long time to cultivate before it can be used. Last time I was lucky enough to kill the Minotaur Orc, I used up most of the black flame. The remaining ones are of no use."
"I see."
Bai Yu Shusheng was a little disappointed, but then he felt that this was normal. How could a cultivator who ascended from the lower realm have any good things
