Chapter 196 The War Begins
"No, I only said that the magic energy is not tasty, but I didn't say I don't want to eat it. I also need the magic energy for my cultivation."
When Canghai's muffled voice came, Zhong Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there was still something to talk about, it would be easy.
"I don't think it's a big deal. If you want magic energy, just tell me. The magic energy of the entire battlefield is yours. You can take as much as you want. You can give the rest to the Magic Pearl. The Magic Pearl and I signed a master-servant contract. You are my companion pearl. We are one. Therefore, my servant is also your servant. If this Magic Pearl has a spirit, it will be your little brother. You can use it however you want."
Canghai flew out of his main body. A small human figure could be vaguely seen in the gray light ball. He circled around the Demon Spirit Pearl twice before flying in front of Zhong Ling'er. "You said it was just a servant, my little brother. It can only eat what I leave behind."
"Yes!" Zhong Ling'er answered without hesitation. There was no living creature in the Demon Spirit Pearl anyway, so whatever she said was what it meant. She had to appease this person first.
Canghai was satisfied, and the Tai Chi pattern behind him reappeared. Now the white area occupied the majority, and the black area was smaller.
"I'm about to transform. You see, I need to absorb the magic energy now. Without my permission, you are not allowed to give the magic energy to the black bead."
Zhong Ling'er said yes with a smile, and said a few more words to comfort him. Then, she left her sea of consciousness while Qinglong, Lao Ji and the others looked at her as a scumbag.
Wiping the sweat off her head, Zhong Ling'er sighed, it's not easy to enjoy the blessing of having many wives, and being too popular can be very distressing.
The monks who escaped from the battlefield have almost recovered in the past two days, and all forces have made preparations, but they did not rush into the battlefield again. Instead, they were waiting for the vanguard team to clear a path.
There have been some interesting news in the past few days. First of all, the news that the two heroes of Tai and Qiong were "looking at each other affectionately" was everywhere. The second time the Bai family went to the Gu family to propose marriage, it was completely ruined. The head of the Gu family clearly stated that the family tradition of the Bai family was too bad, and the Gu family disdained to have a relative like the Bai family.
The head of the Bai family sent someone to find Bai Luochen, but was blocked by Ouyang Ruochen. The head of the Bai family was so angry that he threatened to expel Bai Luochen from the Bai family.
Secondly, the news that Taiqiong Sect's leader, True Man Wu Chen, is about to get married has been widely spread before, and now there are pictures and the truth, so almost everyone who sees True Man Wu Chen will ask when the wedding will be held, and then come to ask for a glass of wedding wine to share in the joy.
Finally, there was a very explosive piece of news. Master Hu, a ninth-grade formation master, had obtained Master Zhong's "Tian Yan Sixty-Four Formation Diagrams" and had already understood the formation of the demon-sealing formation set up by Zhong Ling'er, and had also developed a jade talisman. The most important thing was that he only charged 10% of the cost of the formation materials. All personnel, including individual cultivators, could hand in a small amount of the materials in exchange for a jade talisman.
As soon as the news came out, several sects tore up their contracts and joined Master Hu's camp. Zhong Ling'er didn't react much. After all, they were all about exorcising demons, so why not exorcise them? They just had to not interfere with each other.
The third time entering the Shenyu battlefield, this time was not a test or a rescue, but a real fight against demons, so Zhong Linger gathered all her allies, took out the map and made a division.
She divided all participating sects into five echelons, and established connections with all of them, waiting for her orders to enter the battlefield.
However, she only gave thirty jade talismans to each sect, which meant that only thirty people from each sect could enter. This caused opinions from many sects. Zhong Ling'er reminded everyone that it was a good thing to gain merit, but sending disciples with low cultivation to the battlefield was to send them to their deaths. Even for elite disciples, it was impossible for them to stay awake all the time, so it was also important to arrange rotations to reduce casualties.
Some people took these words to heart, but some thought that Zhong Ling'er was afraid that they would get too much credit, so some sects withdrew from the alliance. Zhong Ling'er reorganized the alliance, and finally only four echelons were left.
The vanguard team was the first to enter the battlefield. Fortunately, there was a protective formation, so everyone was not attacked by monsters as soon as they entered. They then skillfully cleared out all the monsters that surrounded them.
At this time, Master Hu's direct disciples Hu Qi and Hu Sheng also came in with a large group of people. They set up a larger teleportation array not far from Zhong Ling'er's formation. Zhong Ling'er took a few looks and then teleported to the first location with the vanguard team.
The last time she came in, she threw out nearly a hundred teleportation array disks along the way, so this time she didn't need to rush and could just take the teleportation array. The first place was the resting point in the middle, which was where there was a row of shabby huts.
The protective formation here is still there, so after being teleported here, everyone went to the protective formation to rest for a while before starting to kill the monsters outside.
Zhong Ling'er hurried to set up the magic-sealing formation. Because Canghai needed magic energy, Zhong Ling'er followed the same method as last time, using magic flowers as a cover and placing the small tower inside to collect the magic energy.
When the first demon-sealing formation was raised, everyone cheered. Demons were formed and nourished by demonic energy. Strangling the monsters could only be a temporary solution, while eliminating the demonic energy was the fundamental solution. And to eliminate the demonic energy, this demon-sealing formation was the most useful.
The conscious monsters were very afraid of the Demon Sealing Formation and would avoid it from afar when they saw the formation runes. The remaining monsters were not very powerful, so the crowd did not kill them and just moved the monsters directly into the formation.
When the fifth demon-sealing formation was raised, Zhong Ling'er notified the three hundred people in the first echelon to come in. When they arrived, Zhong Ling'er led the vanguard team away to the next location.
When the second group of people entered, Master Hu's two direct disciples had also set up the teleportation array at the entrance. Then, they led a group of people and marched inside in a mighty manner.
Master Hu was very satisfied. The teleportation array of the first level was well-built and very fast, not inferior to Zhong Ling'er's at all. Moreover, it could teleport a hundred people each time, which was much better than Zhong Ling'er's which could only teleport no more than fifty people at a time.
Many of the sect leaders or family heads around him were very satisfied. During the time of setting up the formation, the disciples killed many monsters and some picked up some things. It was a small gain, not worse than what Zhong Ling'er had. Many people from each sect went in, so the gains were not comparable to those of thirty people.
True Man Wu Chen and Pavilion Master Xuanyuan also brought a group of people to anxiously look at the situation on the Taiqiong Mirror. Their people had all gone deep into the interior and the monsters they encountered were very powerful. Although they were only asked to move the monsters into the formation, there were too many monsters and if they were not careful, someone would get hurt.
In front of the Taiqiong mirrors in other big cities, many monks who were watching made comparisons.
"It seems that Junior Sister's progress is not going smoothly. Three hundred people are a little too few. They are simply not enough in such a large battlefield."
