Chapter 244 - 161: Great Wilderness Major City



The next day at noon, the sun was directly overhead.

As Lu Yun pushed the door open and came to the first floor, he saw Meng Hongfei and Qin Yun, both of whom had fully recovered to their peak state, and there was a strong, murderous aura around them, as if they had just gone through an intense battle.

After a brief thought, Lu Yun knew that the two of them must have wiped out all the forces connected to Harvest County and the White Lotus Sect.

Lu Yun slightly bowed his fists: “Congratulations to both Senior Brothers for not only recovering but also completing the task.”

“We owe it all to Junior Brother Lu for arriving in time, otherwise, Qin Brother and I wouldn’t have seen today’s sun, let alone completing the task.” Qin Yun’s face showed lingering fear, as it seemed that he was truly tormented by last night’s experience.

Upon hearing these words, Meng Hongfei’s face was also not looking too good. The two of them, both being Second-level Sky Patrol Guards, had indeed suffered a great setback in this small Harvest County, and the murderous aura that had not yet dissipated became even more intense.

However, it soon settled down.

He wasn’t the kind of person to get angry easily. It was just that this setback was deep enough to leave an enduring memory.

So, when cleaning up the Huang Family in Harvest County, he did not hesitate.

When slaying the high-ranking officials of the County Government Office, he showed no mercy.

The Sky Patrol Guard, as long as they found someone with connections to the evil cult, regardless of their identity and status, had the authority of life and death.

The Huang Family and the high-ranking officials of the county government office were not only connected to the evil cult but thoroughly became peripheral forces of the White Lotus Sect.

Meng Hongfei’s gaze landed on Lu Yun, becoming much softer.

“Junior Brother Lu, what do you plan to do next? If you don’t have a place to go for now, you can join the Sky Patrol Office with Qin Brother and me. With your strength, you can directly become a Second-level Sky Patrol Guard.”

Lu Yun shook his head slightly.

”1 was on my way to the Great Wilderness Major City and just happened to be passing by Harvest County when I received the task from the Martial Academy. Now that the task is completed, I need to continue on my way to the Great Wilderness Major City, otherwise, it will be too late.”

Upon hearing Lu Yun’s words, Meng Hongfei and Qin Yun’s eyes flashed with brilliance, and their killing intent surged.

They both wanted to go with Lu Yun to support, but being Sky Patrol Guards, they had their own burdens to bear.

“In that case, I won’t persuade you anymore. With Junior Brother Lu’s current strength, your support should be able to lessen the burden on the defenders of the Great Wilderness Major City.”

“But I have a few words for Junior Brother Lu.”

“Please, Senior Brother Meng!.”

“First, don’t reveal all your cards unless it’s a life-or-death crisis. Second, no matter what benefits the Black Tiger Army offers, don’t join them.”

Lu Yun frowned slightly: “I can understand the first rule, but why can’t I join the Black Tiger Army?”

“Joining forces like the Black Tiger Army that control provincial armies would undoubtedly add a shackle to yourself, and it would be very difficult to break free from it unless you become the highest level in the army.”

“If Junior Brother Lu likes to hone your skills by slaying Demon Beasts, the Monster Extermination Army is undoubtedly the best choice, as it is more lenient and the top choice for martial artists and Martial Academy disciples.”

After a brief conversation, Lu Yun bid farewell to the two of them.

Now, in Ling Province, let alone the entire Spirit Martial Prefecture, the hidden evil forces of the past are becoming more active. Meng Hongfei and Qin Yun must return to Sky Patrol Office, ready to go on missions at any time, so they couldn’t accompany Lu Yun to the Great Wilderness Major City.

In fact, whether it was slaying demons or exterminating monsters, it was a kind of training and a way to fulfill their duties and contribute to the Morigin Dynasty.

Everyone’s choices were different, but the ultimate goal remained the same.

In the eight hundred and thirty-fifth year of the Morigin Dynasty, on the twentieth day of the fifth month.

The Demon Beast army invaded Spirit Martial Prefecture en masse, and the martial artists and civilians in the border counties became food for the Demon Beasts.

Of these, the East Field Giant City and the Great Wilderness Major City were the most critical defense lines, facing the greatest pressure.

In just five days, the Black Tiger Army of the Great Wilderness Major City had suffered ten massive attacks from Demon Beasts, an unprecedented intensity.

With every battle to defend the city, tens of thousands of Black Tiger Army soldiers and martial artists sacrificed their lives, and even several Origin Fluid Realm commanders fell.

Even if the war was extremely fierce, the Black Tiger Army could not be defeated. If they were defeated, the consequences would be unimaginable.

Great Wilderness Major City was one of the most important gateways to Spirital Martial Prefecture. Once it fell, the Demon Beasts, like a tidal wave, would be able to rampage into Spirit Martial Prefecture unimpeded.

At that time, the entire Spirit Martial Prefecture would become the backyard of the Demon Beasts, trampled at will.

The sky hadn’t even darkened yet when Lu Yun arrived at the Great Wilderness Major City.

There were also many martial artists entering the city with him.

None of the cultivation levels of these martial artists who volunteered to help were lower than the Meridian Passage Realm, and the number of True Qi Realm martial artists could be counted by the hundreds.

There were even more martial artists in the city, coming from Spirit Martial Prefecture and the surrounding prefectures.

For these idle martial artists, each time they helped defend against a beast tide was an opportunity for them to rise to prominence.

Martial arts were widespread in Morigin, but cultivation techniques were ultimately controlled by the Martial Academies, the Court, and a small number of aristocratic families.

For ordinary civilian martial artists, their access was limited to martial arts. To obtain cultivation techniques, they had two options: join the army or a Court institution and exchange their meritorious service for cultivation techniques.

The cultivation techniques exchanged for merits could not be shared with others.

In addition to this, the merits obtained from slaying Demon Beasts could also be exchanged for the pills they needed for cultivation.

Moreover, after these martial artists obtained a cultivation technique and broke through to the Origin Fluid Realm, they would have to join the Monster Extermination Army or the Demon Suppression Army to obtain more powerful cultivation techniques.

This was why Morigin could still have the strength to explore the endless Great Wilderness while suppressing the Evil Cults and Demon Sects.

Lu Yun?!

As soon as Lu Yun entered the city, a voice called out to him.

Lu Yun looked towards the source of the sound, and saw an old familiar face.

It was Liang Shaowen from the Gray Parasol Martial Arts Academy.

Two years ago, he had fought side by side with him in East Field Giant City. He didn’t expect to meet him here today.

With Lu Yun’s sharp eyes, it was obvious that Liang Shaowen’s cultivation had already reached the mid-stage of the Transforming Origin Realm.

In just two years, he had advanced from the True Qi Nine Refinements to the mid-stage of the Transforming Origin Realm. He was indeed a Heavenly Pride of the Gray Parasol Martial Arts Academy.

Furthermore, Liang Shaowen had already begun to touch upon the True Qi Ten Refinements back then, so his true strength was probably more than what his appearance suggested.

“Brother Liang!”

Lu Yun greeted with a smile and a bow.

He had had a good relationship with Liang Shaowen in the past, and now that they were reunited, a knowing smile appeared on his face.

“Haha, I can’t believe it’s really you!” Liang Shaowen walked over with a silver-white spear and gave Lu Yun a big hug.

Seeing an old friend again after many years was naturally an emotional moment.

“Is Xiao Chen not with you?” After hugging each other, Liang Shaowen suddenly remembered something and asked.

He still vividly remembered the battle with the Demon Beasts outside East Field Giant City back then.

His own strength had improved so much in the past two years, partly because he had been inspired by Lu Yun and Xiao Chen.

Hearing the mention of Xiao Chen, Lu Yun trembled slightly, and the image of a young man with a handsome face and an icy demeanor flashed through his mind.

Lu Yun shook his head slightly and smiled, “Speaking of which, I haven’t seen him for a long time.”

Hearing this, Liang Shaowen also sighed softly and revealed a bitter smile on his face, “Ah, since we parted last time, I haven’t seen Zhang Kuang, Liu Wuhen, and the others either. With their talents, they should be at least at the Transforming Origin Realm by now.”

Lu Yun nodded in agreement; the two of them were no less talented than Liang Shaowen, and it was unheard of for them not to advance to the Transforming Origin Realm within two years.

“Let’s go register together!”

Liang Shaowen suggested.

With more and more martial artists gathering, and the Black Tiger Army’s high-ranking officials issuing a wartime reward system, they needed to register and receive relevant items before joining the battlefield in order to facilitate post-war settlements.

Otherwise, in the chaotic battle between tens of thousands of troops and Demon Beasts, it would be impossible to determine who killed how many Demon Beasts.

“We shouldn’t delay any longer. Let’s go!”

Lu Yun nodded in agreement.

In a short while, they arrived at a huge, wide-open square.

However, their arrival did not cause much of a stir.

Although their cultivation of Transforming Origin Realm peak and mid-stage was good among the numerous martial artists, they were not the most outstanding..
