nChapter 162: Super Military Requirement List (1)

nTranslator: Daoist6fubtiW

nRedwood Island.

nIn a newly built palace.

nThis was where the temporary headquarters of the West Defense Zone was located.

n“What is it? You want us to help mortals build cities?”

nA Foundation Establishment Cultivator in a green Daoist robe suddenly stood up and said in disbelief.

nSeeing this.

nAll the generals in the western defense region looked at him.

nCommander, forgive me for being blunt, but we are here to guard against the corpse tide on Lotus Flower Island, not to build a city for mortals!”

nThe green-robed cultivator was filled with righteous indignation, as if he had caused a great humiliation to the mortals.

nSeeing this scene, the other cultivators also showed a cold expression.

nCultivators were cultivators, and mortals were mortals.

nIn this world, there was only the principle of mortals kowtowing and bowing to cultivators. There was no reason for cultivators to carry bricks to build a city for mortals.

nEver since the human race became the overlord of this world through the power of cultivators, cultivators had always been high and mighty.

nHe could even kill and punish ordinary mortals at will.

nIn the Infinite Star Sea, this phenomenon was slightly better.

nThis was because the laws of the Qianyuan Sword Sect provided basic protection for mortals.

nKilling mortals wantonly violated the laws of the sect, even if the mortal was a slave.

nHowever, it was somewhat unacceptable for Chen Daoxuan to let cultivators build houses and cities for mortals.

nThis was like sending a high and mighty leader to the front line of the construction site to carry bricks.

nEven if it was because of their pride as a ruling class, it made the cultivators feel particularly uncomfortable.

nIt was fortunate that Chen Daoxuan, who had given them this order, was their direct superior and a sword cultivator that cultivators of the same level looked up to.

nIf other cultivators of the same cultivation level dared to say this to him, he might even use his sword to argue with the other party.

nHearing this.

nChen Daoxuan sized up the cultivators in the palace.

nHe realized that even Zhou Mucheng and Zhou Siliang were frowning, as if Chen Daoxuan’s actions had indeed challenged everyone’s bottom line.

nBut Chen Daoxuan was unwilling, and it was impossible for him to give in to the cultivators at this moment.

n“If I remember correctly, you’re a cultivator of the Wei Clan, right?” he asked coldly.”

n“Commander, this subordinate is from the Wei family!”

nThe middle-aged cultivator in a green Daoist robe cupped his hands and said respectfully.

nTowards Chen Daoxuan, he was still convinced from the bottom of his heart.

nAfter all, a few days ago, Chen Daoxuan had defeated the famous Lei Zhen in front of everyone with a single sword strike, which was extremely shocking.

nOne had to know that Lei Zhen was so famous among the rogue cultivators not only because of his eager and righteous personality, but also because of his top-notch strength among the foundation establishment cultivators.

nEven so, he was still defeated by Chen Daoxuan, an early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator, in one move.

nWei Lidao knew that with his mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation, he was no match for Lei Zhen.

nOne could imagine how big the gap in strength between him and Chen Daoxuan was.

nBetween cultivators, the reason why status was determined by cultivation level was essentially because of the difference in strength.

nNormally, a high-level cultivator would be able to suppress a low-level cultivator.

nHowever, that didn’t include geniuses like Chen Daoxuan and Zhou Mubai.

nIt was difficult to estimate the combat strength of such a prodigy using cultivation. To them, fighting someone of a higher cultivation level was as easy as eating a meal.

nFor such a prodigy.

nNaturally, Wei Lidao didn’t dare to offend him.

nIf Chen Daoxuan’s request wasn’t so unreasonable, Wei Lidao wouldn’t have stood up to object.

nAfter all, this was the first official order given by the commander after he arrived at the encampment.

n“Very good!”

nChen Daoxuan nodded.” Let me ask you, do you choose to stay in your original clan or migrate to Redwood Island?”

nHearing this.

nWei Lidao frowned and cupped his hands.”

n“How many clansmen do you have?”

n“Commander, the Wei Clan has over 300,000 clansmen!”

n“More than 300,000 people. Tell me, where will they stay on Redwood Island?”

n“This…”

nWei Lidao was dumbfounded.

nIndeed, with so many people migrating here, where to live was a very serious problem.

nMortals were different from cultivators.

nIf a cultivator wanted to build a palace, they could build it in a day or two with a wave of their hand.

nMoreover, with the adaptability of cultivators to the environment, even eating wind and drinking dew was nothing to them.

nBut not everyone.

nWithout houses and food, they would freeze to death or starve to death.

nCompared to cultivators, mortals were much more fragile.

nMoreover, the Wei family was only a portion of the mortals that had migrated here. There would be more families and mortals under the command of itinerant cultivators that would continue to migrate here.

nHe had no choice.

nIn order to deal with the zombie tide and Daoist Shenjue, everyone had no choice but to gather together for warmth.

nOtherwise, if a single clan or individual were to encounter the Zifu Zombies, it would be no different from sending themselves to death.

nThe Zhao Family was so powerful, but their entire family was killed in the chaos, let alone the other families.

nSeeing Wei Lidao say something,

nChen Daoxuan continued,” The first batch of mortals will arrive here in at most a month. Before that, if we don’t build the first batch of houses, they will freeze to death!”

nChen Daoxuan looked around at the crowd and hugged his hands.””Why? Do you want to see your clansmen or the mortals under your command freeze to death?”

nUnder Chen Daoxuan’s gaze, everyone lowered their heads.

nSeeing this.

nChen Daoxuan gave Zhou Mucheng a look. Zhou Mucheng immediately stood up and said,”This is an urgent matter. I’m willing to build a city for mortals!”

nEveryone looked at each other when they heard this.

n“We’re also willing!

n“Very well,”

nChen Daoxuan smiled.” You’re not the only ones who are willing. The ten of you, as the ten thousand soldiers of our Western Defense Region, have to let the soldiers under you understand this meaning and help the mortals build the city together!

nNow that Guang ‘an Prefecture was facing a crisis, both cultivators and mortals had to work together to tide over the difficulties!

nDon’t let me hear anything about cultivators bullying mortals.

nOtherwise, even if I recognize him, the sword in my hand won’t!”

nAs he spoke, Chen Xuan’s tone revealed a cold killing intent.

nAt this moment.

nOnly then did everyone understand that the commander in front of them was not only a Foundation Establishment Cultivator in his twenties, but also a genius Swordsman who held the power of 100,000 soldiers!

nAll the cultivators who had been to the frontlines knew that Wei Lidao’s refutation of Chen Daoxuan’s order was enough to warrant execution in the Yun Nation’s frontlines.

nThe crime was naturally disobeying military orders!

nThe current Guang ‘an Prefecture was no different from the frontline of the Yun Nation. It had also been designated as a war zone by the Qian Yuan Sword Sect.

nSince it was a war zone, the laws of the front line were naturally implemented.

nWei Lidao finally reacted. He had actually walked around the gates of hell just now, and he couldn’t help but break out in cold sweat.

nEveryone was silent.

nChen Daoxuan nodded in satisfaction and continued,””The second thing is about the supply of magic tools in the western defense zone. Do you have any good channels to buy magic tools?”

nEveryone was not stupid. When they heard this, they immediately knew that the opportunity to suck up to their superiors had arrived.

nLei Zhen was the first to stand out. His voice was like thunder and caused the entire hall to rumble. Lord Commander, our magic tools are mainly used to supply those Qi Refining soldiers with no magic tools.

nTherefore, 1 believe that a low or medium level one magic tool is enough. Although a high level one magic tool is good, it is too expensive and can only equip a small number of elite Qi Condensation cultivators.

nIn Guang ‘an Prefecture, the Chen family of Shuanghu Island was naturally the best at making low-level magic tools. This was a well-known fact.”

nEveryone nodded in agreement.

nSeeing his subordinate being so sensible, Chen Daoxuan was very satisfied. He finally had some taste of being a commander.

n“Since you all think that my Chen family makes the best low-level magic tools, then this military bill will be handed over to my Chen family!”

nChen Daoxuan immediately made the decision.” As the amount of military supplies is quite large, you have to pay a portion of the deposit to my Chen family. Otherwise, I’m afraid that my Chen family will go bankrupt.”

n“Hahahaha! It’s only right, it’s only right!”

n“It’s what it should be.”

nThe cultivators echoed.

n“For the first batch of military supplies, I plan to buy 50,000 flying swords. Among them, there are 30,000 low-grade level one flying swords and 20,000 mid-grade level one flying swords. According to the market price, this batch of flying swords will cost 3,500,000 spirit stones.

nHalf of the deposit, which was 1.75 million spirit stones, would be paid to the Chen family first. The rest of the spirit stones would be settled within three years.

nThe Chen Clan also needed to hand over these flying swords within three years!”

nHearing this.

nEveryone felt that there was not much of a problem. The only question was why it was 50,000 flying swords and not 100,000.

nHearing this question.

n“I’m afraid that my Chen family won’t be able to take it all. Let’s take it slow!” Chen Daoxuan explained.”

nEveryone nodded.

nAt this time, as long as one was not stupid, they would know that magic tools, some special pills, and spiritual talismans would become scarce resources.

nIn a war, logistics were the main focus.

nThis was the same principle for the war between cultivators.

nHowever, compared to the ancient wars in his previous life, in a war between cultivators, other than the logistics resources, the difference in strength between the cultivators on both sides was also important.

nFor example, a Qi Condensation cultivator, no matter how good a magic tool he had, would still be no match for a Zifu Disciple. Even if a Zifu Disciple didn’t use any magic tools or any external items, he would still be able to defeat a Zifu Disciple.

nWhen the difference in cultivation was large to a certain extent, external objects were almost unable to make up for it.

nThis was the biggest difference between cultivators and mortals.

nCompared to the wars between mortals that relied solely on equipment, the wars between cultivators depended on the strength of both parties.

nHe accepted this large military order.

nThe Chen family did not do anything and immediately received 1.75 million spirit stones.

nThis was only the first business deal. In the future, the eighty million spirit stones, other than the cost of building the spirit vein, would slowly fall into the Chen family’s pocket.

nIf he couldn’t do that…

nChen Daoxuan would have wasted all these years.

nMoreover, these newly built spiritual veins would eventually belong to the Chen family.

nThis was no different from the Chen family’s own spirit vein.

nAs long as he continued to be the commander of the western defense zone, would anyone be able to snatch the right to dispose of these spirit veins from him?

nAs for the position of the Western Defense Region Commander, even if Chen Daoxuan were to step down in the future, only the Chen Clan cultivators would be able to take up the post.

nThis was because the area west of Guang ‘an Prefecture was already within the Chen family’s sphere of influence.

nThis point.

nA few days ago, when the Zhou family divided the defense zones, it was confirmed..
