Chapter 294 Second Army Commander
"Whose name is this monk?! How could he appear in the area we are responsible for?" In a stronghold of the Demon Slayer Alliance, a Nascent Soul monk pointed at the scene in front of him and said.
In front of him stood a two-meter-tall mirror.
The footage of Cao Rui's battle with the demon team was being played repeatedly on it.
I saw Cao Rui standing on the spot with a cold face, surrounded by sword light like rain, holding the sword formula with his right hand, and holding his left hand behind his back, exuding a fierce aura.
And around him, demon spirits and bodies exploded one after another, which was so majestic.
All the Golden Core cultivators under his command shook their heads to show that they did not recognize him.
This Nascent Soul cultivator murmured: "It seems that he must be a casual cultivator who has just left the mountain."
He secretly thought to himself that this Golden Core cultivator was so powerful in combat and seemed to be a casual cultivator. If he could recruit him under his banner, it would undoubtedly be a huge help to him.
So he decided to send one of his men to find the monk and bring him back to the stronghold.
"Yunxiao, go and bring this monk to me. Pay attention to your attitude." Yuanying monk said to a young Jindan monk next to him.
"I obey, elder!" The young Jindan monk nodded slightly, set up the Escape Light and left in the air.
...
Cao Rui held Shi Shatian and Li Tianxing one by one.
After escaping for a certain distance, it fell from the sky.
Cao Rui's spiritual consciousness is so sharp that he felt the feeling of being spied on when he was fighting with the demons.
"The Demon Slayer Alliance should have set up monitoring instruments nearby."
In this case, the Demon Slayer Alliance should have discovered the traces of the three people.
Therefore, Cao Rui fell from the sky and walked forward slowly.
Sure enough, not long after, there was a ray of light coming from the horizon.
The light fell in front of Cao Rui and the others.
"Fellow Taoist, stay!"
What fell on the ground was a young monk.
He was promoted to Jindan at a young age, and his talent is evident.
"Fellow Taoist came to the front line, but are you looking for the Demon Slayer Alliance?" the monk asked.
Cao Rui nodded slightly, and had already prepared a set of words in his heart: "The three of us are all casual cultivators. We met by chance on the road, and decided to go together with the same goals. The purpose is to join the Demon Slayer Alliance and fight against the demons together. ." He looked at the other party steadily, hoping to leave a reliable impression.
The monk across from him looked stunned when he heard this, and nodded to express his understanding.
He continued: "Fellow Taoist, your news seems to be delayed. Since the Lingxiao Sword Ancestor successfully killed the two demon kings, the ancestor himself has also suffered heavy losses. Therefore, we have to move the defense line backward."
There was a trace of worry in his tone. The Lingxiao Sword Ancestor was the confidence of the entire Hongzhou to fight against the demons. If the Lingxiao Sword Ancestor did not come out for a day, the entire Demon Slayer Alliance was in a state of uneasiness.
"Previously, setting up a defense line close to the natural moat could indeed effectively block the invasion of the demons. However, the demons' bodies are extremely strong and they are at home in the death energy environment of the natural moat. This is very detrimental to us human monks."
The monk continued to explain.
"So, now we have established a demon-killing stronghold more than a hundred miles away from the natural chasm."
Although this will lengthen the defense line and may cause some demons to occasionally break through the defense line and invade inland areas, through the more than 100 miles of clear buffer zone free of dead energy, we can grasp the trends of the demons in advance and do what we need to do during the battle. Very well prepared for battle. "
"Looking at it now, after the defense line has been moved to the rear, our losses have been smaller."
When Cao Rui heard this, he showed a look of understanding.
This is indeed true.
Previously, monk Hongzhou went deep into the chasm to fight against the demons. He seemed to be fearless and fearless of death, and he had plenty of momentum. However, within the death aura of the chasm, the only ones who were more restricted were the human monks.
For more than half a year, Hongzhou monks had suffered many casualties.
While Lingxiao Sword Ancestor was injured and in retreat, it was a wise move to retire from the front line.
"I am the commander of the second army of the Demon Slayer Alliance, Young Master Yunxiao. If you want to join the alliance, you might as well come with me now to meet with the commander of the second army!"
"The alliance has deployed various detection instruments in the buffer zone to learn the demons' movements in advance."
"Previously, we saw the performance of fellow Taoist through the detector, and the commander-in-chief also wants to see you with his own eyes."
Young Master Yunxiao's mind flashed through the terrifying scene of Cao Rui destroying the team by himself, and he admired Cao Rui very much in his heart.
As for Shi Shatian, a physical practitioner, his performance was pretty good, but compared to Cao Rui, he was nothing, and he was not qualified to become a leader.
Not to mention Li Tianxing, who was in the foundation building stage, Young Master Yunxiao didn't take it seriously.
Young Master? Cao Rui's heart moved slightly. It seemed that he had a close relationship with Hongzhou, one of the five major immortal cultivating families.
However, Cao Rui did not forget the main purpose of his trip, which was to help Shi Shaotian and Li Tianxing get used to fighting on the front line and prepare for the subsequent live broadcast to the Yunzhou monks.
"I wonder, Commander, do you want to see me or the three of us?" Cao Rui asked.
Young Master Yunxiao cupped his hands and said, "The commander-in-chief only said that he would meet one Taoist friend. By the way, I wonder what I would call my friend?"
Cao Rui thought for a moment and said, "I am a poor man, Chen Fugui. It would be a good thing to go see the commander-in-chief with you."
"It's just that my two little brothers came to the front line with me. The three of us have been friends for many years and have even become sworn brothers."
"It's all to kill the demons, but I don't want to see anything happen to them."
"Especially my brother Li, who is only at the foundation-building stage, I wonder if he can be properly arranged in the Demon-Slaying Alliance?"
Young Master Yunxiao said: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Chen, I will follow up on the arrangements of the two fellow Daoists personally."
Some things cannot be said too clearly.
After all, the Demon-Slaying Alliance is a public welfare organization.
It is all for the purpose of uniting to fight against the demons.
Even if you have to use connections to arrange a safe position, you have to do it quietly.
Cao Rui naturally understood in his heart, and nodded slightly and said: "In this case, please lead the way and take us to the Demon-Slaying Alliance."
"Please follow me!"
Young Master Yunxiao set up the escape light and moved forward.
Cao Rui and the other two followed behind him.
Not long after, a war pagoda similar to the previous Tongtian Tower appeared in Cao Rui's consciousness.
Under the war pagoda, teams of cultivators came in and out from time to time.
In the pagoda hall, Young Master Yunxiao called another Jindan cultivator to arrange the positions of Li Tianxing and Shi Shatian.
"You two should keep a low profile and put your own safety first."
"I will come to see you again after a while." Cao Rui said.
Li Tianxing and Shi Shatian nodded in response, and then followed the Jindan cultivator who came.
"It seems that the relationship between Daoyou Chen and the two brothers is very deep." Gongzi Yunxiao on the side saw this scene and said.
Cao Rui smiled faintly: "Those who share the same ideals are rare, and we should cherish them."
"Please lead the way, Daoyou, take me to see the commander."
Gongzi Yunxiao nodded and said: "Daoyou Chen, please follow me!"
