Chapter 21 Straight to the Top

Chengtou was still immersed in the joy of victory at this moment.

Since the war against the demon clan, humans have rarely had such a great victory.

So when Tang Jie fell on the city, every soldier, including the cultivators, looked at him with respect and admiration. When Tang Jie passed by, everyone automatically made way for him and bowed to him from the bottom of their hearts. pay tribute.

There were also cultivators who came forward to get close to Tang Jie. Tang Jie did not put on airs and talked with each other. Soon he got to know some cultivators, including those he had noticed before.

The man in white with the sword who has the ability to see is called Ximen Changfeng, who is a swordsman from the Western Region of Fengshan; the one who uses the Yaoqin is called Binghuang, but no one knows his real name; the one who wields the soul gathering flag is called Ye Xiao; the one who controls the sword is called Ye Xiao; The puppet's name is Shentu Yuan, and he is a descendant of the Shentu family in Fengshan. The last old man who rides a yellow sheep and holds a white lotus is called the old man Huang Yang, but he is a hermit who finally entered the world because of the great catastrophe of the human race.

Although we met for the first time, we were very happy to meet each other.

While they were talking, an officer came over and handed a brocade box to Tang Jie: "Gu Chengshou asked me to hand this to you, sir."

Tang Jie took it and took a look, only to see that there were thirty Huitong Bank notes inside, each with a denomination of one hundred thousand. Huitong Bank is a bank in Fengshan Kingdom that specializes in the trading of cultivators and has branches in various places. Since Gu Pinzhang asked someone to send this, there should be a semicolon in Dongjin Pass.

Tang Jie accepted it and said, "Thank you, General, for the generous gift."

The officer went back without saying anything more.

Tang Jie then said goodbye to everyone on the pretext that he was exhausted from the battle and needed rest.

Not long after walking, a person suddenly ran up from behind: "Zhenren Tang, Zhenren Tang, please wait a moment!"

Looking back, it was Zhao Qingzheng running over panting, holding something in his hand, which was the jade pendant magic weapon that Tang Jie had given him earlier.

Zhao Qing ran over and said, "Sir, this is your thing and I haven't returned it to you yet."

Tang Jie smiled: "I gave it to you, just take it."

"How can that be done? I have only done a trivial thing, how dare I receive such a treasure." Zhao Qing said anxiously, looking at his expression to see if he was doing something wrong.

"What an important treasure..." Tang Jie whispered. For a mortal soldier, this jade pendant can indeed be regarded as a family heirloom.

After thinking about it,

Tang Jie said: "Well, I'm new to Dongjin Pass and I'm not familiar with many places. You can be my guide and take me around, and I will reward you with this treasure. How about that?"

Zhao Qing was stunned when he heard this.

Just by being a guide, can you officially obtain a magic weapon?

"What? Not willing?" Tang Jie asked lightly.

Zhao Qing was stunned and nodded hurriedly: "Yes! Yes!"

"Then let's go." Tang Jie had already left.

Unlike other cities, although Dongjinguan is large in area, it is not prosperous. There are not many people living here, and almost everyone exists to serve the soldiers who defend the city. As an important human town to resist the demon clan, the entire city was designed and built for war from the beginning.

The entire interior of Dongjin Pass is like a huge maze. Not only does it have no city gates, but even the internal layout is arranged according to the needs of the world war. There is an air-forbidden formation above the city, and no monster clan can fly directly over the city; the streets below are narrow, and the buildings on both sides are mostly made of steel. The windows face the streets, and people living inside can directly launch attacks; the roads are complicated, The architectural layout is basically the same and looks like a labyrinth. Unless someone has lived in it for a long time, outsiders entering will not be able to figure out the way for a while and will definitely lose their way. There are also underground passages dug underground in Dongjinguan. These tunnels extend in all directions and are countless. Together with the ground buildings, they form a three-dimensional Dongjin defense system.

Finally, the invading demon clan is weakened through magic circles such as forbidden spirits and partitions, so that civilian soldiers also have the opportunity to make contributions.

Through various means, humans have built Dongjin Pass into an iron wall, so that even if the demon clan breaks through the city wall, it does not mean victory. What awaits them is more intense and bloody street fighting and strangulation.

Cultivation wars and mortal wars are both different and similar.

The difference is ability. The difference in abilities makes many constraints in mortal wars non-existent for cultivators. For example, due to the ability to fly, the complex terrain is almost meaningless to the cultivators. Instead, a huge and complex protective array is formed.

Dongjinguan itself is a huge city protected by the magic circle, but this huge city is actually one of the core centers of a larger Qianluo Devouring Divine Royal Formation. It was this super large magic circle that replaced the high mountains and ridges to prevent the invasion of the demon clan, and also made Dongjin Pass a must-attack place. In addition to Tang Jie, there are currently sixteen soul-transforming cultivators on the Dongjin Pass front line, and most of them are stationed at other key points centered on Dongjin Pass, forming a larger and more complex defense system.

The same thing is tactics. Whether it is a mortal war or a cultivator's war, the core ideas of using more to defeat fewer, using the elite to defeat the mediocre, and obtaining the greatest victory at the smallest cost will not change, they are just reflected in different ways.

At this moment, under the leadership of Zhao Qing, he walked all the way to Dongjinguan, and Tang Jie gradually learned a little about this city.

The more you know, the more excited you are!

For Tang Jie, coming to Dongjin Pass was like coming to the paradise of formations.

Looking around, the brilliance of formation patterns is shining everywhere. The floors laid on the ground, the animals carved on the eaves, and the plaques hanging on the gates, each piece may have a profound meaning. Even the layout of the entire city is set up according to the needs of the formation. The streets are the formation patterns. The buildings with unique shapes are the nodes, the winding and deep alleys are the loops, and the cool and refreshing water wells are actually the holes somewhere.

Once the monsters break through the city wall and enter the city, what awaits them is not harvest, but more terrifying formations and strangulation of soldiers, just like hunters hunting beasts in cages.

The combination of formations and nature has reached its peak in Dongjin Pass. The large formations are nested within small formations, and the small formations are combined with the large formations. Zed was completely entranced.

Some of these things he could do, some he couldn't, and some he had never even thought of. After seeing them, he suddenly realized that the formations could be deployed in this way.

Such a large and complex array cannot be completed by one person. The formation here gathered hundreds of the best formation masters from Fengshan Kingdom for thousands of years. It took a lifetime of hard work to build it and gathered the efforts of countless formation masters.

Because of this, to others, Dongjin Pass is a killing battlefield, but to Tang Jie, it is a paradise of formations.

Tang Jie fell in love with this place from the first moment he saw it.

In the following days, Tang Jie stayed at Dongjin Pass.

Gu Pinzhang arranged a place for him to live, which was supposed to be free, but General Gu charged him 10,000 yuan. A house was sold for 10,000 souls, and the old general was ruthless in collecting the money.

Tang Jie didn't care, and then he plunged into the study of this formation. In the past, Tang Jie did not love the formation, but the formation loved him. But as the years passed, Tang Jie fell deeply in love with this way after being immersed in it for a long time. In order to study the formation, he even slowed down his penetration into the demon clan's mainland.

The magic circle in Dongjin Pass was vast, complex, and boundless. Once Tang Jie studied it deeply, he was quickly fascinated by it and fell into it. So people often see Tang Jie's figure appearing in any corner of Dongjinguan City, sometimes looking up to the sky and saying nothing, sometimes squatting on the ground watching ants, sometimes going crazy and scribbling and jumping around in the city. Up and down, what's more, it will trigger a magic circle, causing the sky to tremble and the earth to tremble. Finally, I figured it out early every time and didn't cause any big trouble. As time went by, people gradually came to know that Tang Jie was a bit neurotic. As time went by, some people called him Crazy Tang Jie.

There are also many knowledgeable people who know that Tang Jie is using Dongjin Pass to study the formation. I'm just curious, aren't all physical practitioners just big-hearted and brainless? Why are you still so obsessed with Tao?

In addition to studying the formation, Tang Jie would also take some time to practice in Qingyun Gangfeng every day and polish his body.

The battle in Dongjin City allowed him to obtain a large number of demon corpses, which was a good time for another round of training. More than four years of constant entry and exit into the Qingyun Gangfeng layer have greatly extended his stay in the Gangfeng layer. Although there is no guarantee that he can break through the Gangfeng layer, it is certain that with the growth of strength, Tang Jie is no longer far away from this day.

Today, Tang Jie finally consumed the demon corpse to the last bit, and his resistance to the Gangfeng was greatly improved again.

Looking at the sky above his head, Tang Jie murmured to himself: "It's time to give it a try."

Back then, he was able to enter the Qingyun Realm because of the support of the Jade Immortal Pavilion and the Mica Fine Gold Armor, but this time, Tang Jie had to rely on himself to overcome the Qingyun Gangfeng.

Summoning the avatar from the Sheji Diagram, the main body and the avatar have been reunited.

After merging, Tang Jie has the toughness and fortitude of the original body, but also has a bit of elegance and unrestrainedness of the clone.

Standing under the dome, looking at the green wind above his head, Tang Jie smiled first, and then flew into the air with all his strength.

Like a shooting star, it kept flying towards the sky. The green wind was half-coiled around him like a flame, bringing up a green air current. The higher you go, the stronger the wind becomes, full of destructive power.

However, Tang Jie didn't care at all and just flew upwards desperately. The strong wind blew against his face, causing sharp pain like a knife. But so what? Compared to the first time he entered, when every gust of wind swept away large pieces of his flesh and blood, the damage done to him by the current strong wind has been greatly weakened. Tang Jie's powerful recovery ability continued to restore the damage, making a desperate resistance against the terrifying Gangfeng.

As someone who has been in and out of the Gangfeng countless times and has already grasped the pulse of the Gangfeng, Tang Jie is undoubtedly destined to be the final winner of this fight. Although in the process, there was a little surprise, that is, Tang Jie found himself flying away from Qingyun. It takes significantly longer to enter the Qingyun Realm than to enter the Qingyun Realm. This may be because falling is faster than rising.

This accident made Tang Jie take nearly a moment longer than planned, but no matter what, he managed to survive.

The moment he broke out of the Gangfeng layer, Tang Jie returned to the endless void again.

Looking down at the rolling blue clouds below, Tang Jie laughed loudly: "I succeeded!"

A huge improvement!

From today on, Qingyun Realm is no longer his own prison, but will be allowed to come and go as he pleases! r1058
