Chapter 115 The Scout Squad(1/2)
Chapter 115 Scout Team
The boss went out for a visit and his words were full of wisdom and humor, but he was so good at chatting that it was difficult for the senior management of the client to get in touch with him.
Before Jiang Zhe left, there was a symposium with all the branch staff.
After his passionate speech, he introduced the topic to several ongoing reforms.
For example, Zongmen believes that the front-line personnel stationed in each peak must have experience in mining spiritual minerals and operating mines in order to be able to make practical solutions.
In his final summary, the leader returned to this point again.
As if to strengthen everyone's understanding, he looked around and suddenly pointed at the key member of the Holy Sword Hall who had accompanied him to visit customers and asked:
"Your name is Jin Ziming, right? Have you ever opened a mine? Have you ever managed a mining area?"
"No, Master." Jin Ziming gritted his teeth and answered truthfully.
"Well, starting from tomorrow, you will take over the job and work in the mining area for three years. If you are qualified, you will return to your original position.
If the comprehensive ability has been significantly improved, the branch can apply to the sect for rapid promotion."
"ah?"
Jin Ziming was stunned for a moment. He hid silently in the crowd. He kept a low profile and didn't ask any questions. How could he be noticed? It was an unforeseen disaster.
Is this to set a role model and build yourself into a model who starts from the bottom and grows quickly?
Jin Ziming looked bitter and did not dare to refute in person.
After the leader left, he quietly found Liu Yangjun and asked:
"Great Elder, what should we do?"
Liu Yangjun patted his shoulder with a smile and said:
"Zi Ming, you have to seize the opportunity! The leader wants to train you."
"Great Elder, don't make fun of me." Jin Ziming said resentfully.
"Okay, let's get back to the topic. Don't just listen to what the leader says. He's talking about you, not you, just an abstract version of you." Liu Yangjun said seriously.
"What do you mean?" Jin Ziming was confused.
"He is using you as an example to promote a culture that the sect wants to establish.
So, when he returns to the headquarters tomorrow, do whatever you should do."
Jin Ziming felt relieved.
Half a month later, Rui Ying and her two senior sisters stopped by Lei Ming, handed Jin Zi Ming a page of gold foil, and said:
"Brother, I'm very sorry. One of the powerful elders in the sect is practicing in retreat with two pages of gold foil, so I only brought one page this time.
Please give me some more time. When the elder comes out of seclusion, I will definitely get it for you."
Jin Ziming said helplessly:
"Okay, as soon as possible."
After bidding farewell to the three of them, he returned to his residence, took out the gold foil and took a look, and found that it was "Volume 4. Whirlwind of Divine Soul". The technique was so fantastic that he couldn't put it down.
However, thinking of Ye Ranyi's prediction of an imminent war between humans and demons, he decided to practice the "Wandering Dragon Sword Technique" first to increase his combat power as much as possible to avoid becoming cannon fodder.
This set of sword techniques has a total of fourteen moves, namely "Enter the Sea Style", "Flying Style", "Earth Dragon Escape", "Fire Dragon Slash" and "Poisonous Dragon Saliva".
After practicing hard day after day, the "Youlong Sword Technique" gradually became a success.
In order to avoid being recognized when he bumped into Fu Chuanyi and Zheng Chengxuan in the future, he specially used Leng Yue and Qiu Yuan knives to practice.
There is still about a year left before the date predicted by Fairy Ye, and the monsters are becoming restless.
Three waves of small beasts appeared in the Wangyao Forest outside Thunder City, killing more than a dozen monks.
Various factions, including the Demon Sect, mobilized and began to prepare for this disaster.
The Cultivation Alliance summoned the top leaders of the super sects, and after several quarrels, the Cultivation Alliance finally established the Cultivation Alliance Headquarters.
The first instruction issued was to require the super and first- and second-level sects to allocate manpower from Leiming stations or branches to form an advance team, led by Du Xianze, the elder of the Xingguang Sect, as the commander-in-chief.
Super and first-level sects need to send people, and each second-level sect needs to send thirty people.
Half of the manpower can be transferred from the next sect, as long as the cultivation level is above the middle stage of Jindan.
Lingyun sent the Leiming branch to conduct an internal competition to determine the first batch of fifteen people to participate in the battle.
Jin Ziming was dissatisfied with the lack of training time and actual combat opportunities, so he signed up immediately. With his abnormal combat power, he naturally stood out and was successfully selected.
After the fifteen members of the lower sect were in place, the Lingyun Pioneer Team was formed, led by Gao Zhengwentang, the director of Yuanying Dzogchen's Foreign Affairs Hall.
Five days later, the advance team of Hongqing Cultivation Circle gathered, and there were actually more than 1,100 people.
Commander-in-Chief Du Xianze issued a mission:
"Everyone, we need to be stationed on the dividing line between the Monster Watching Forest and the Monster Forest. The battle line will stretch for more than two thousand miles.
Therefore, seven war zones were divided. Among the super sects, Dan Dao Sect and Ling Fu Pavilion and their subordinate sects were stationed in the two southernmost war zones respectively. There were relatively few beasts here.
The other five super sects, from south to north, are Ten Thousand Buddhas Temple, Starlight Sect, Jianyun Peak, Demonic Elephant Sect and Xiaoyao Sect..."
The Starlight Sect brought by the Grand Commander is in the middle and is responsible for the area of more than 300 miles in the middle of the front. Jin Ziming is naturally also here.
Each vanguard also needs to set up two scout teams, each with seven people, responsible for detecting the enemy's situation.
Jin Ziming was appointed by Lao Gao as the captain of the first scout team.
In addition to the disciples of Lingyun Sect, this team also has three monks from third-level sects, namely Li Shaojie and Li Ao from Nankun Mountain, and Xu Lijin from Huiling Sect.
Li Ao is the Great Perfection of the Golden Elixir, while the other two are in the early stage of Nascent Soul. Xu Lijin was extremely dissatisfied when he saw a minor cultivator in the middle stage of the Golden Elixir come to lead him.
Although there was no explicit provocation, there was a look of disdain on his face. Jin Ziming was too lazy to convince others and said directly to him:
"How about we compete? If you beat me, you will be the captain."
"Really? Forget it, if I win against you, Commander Gao probably won't agree to me taking care of you."
"Don't worry, if you win Zi Ming, we will all listen to you and don't need to be appointed by Lao Gao."
The disciples of the Lingyun Sect on the side were well aware of his abnormal combat power, and immediately shouted.
Seeing Jin Ziming's expression and hearing what others said, Xu Lijin was a little hesitant, but now that the matter was over, he had to speak out.
Jin Ziming took out the Qiuyuan knife and said:
"You take action."
Xu Lijin holds a thin long knife and performs the "Liu Ye Fei" knife technique.
He did not dare to underestimate the enemy, so he started with "Willow Leaves to Blind Eyes", followed by "Flying Willow Leaves".
Countless blade-like willow leaves first floated out of the air. When blown by the wind, they immediately grew in size, and then shot at the opponent erratically.
Jin Ziming was about to try out the "Wandering Dragon Sword Technique" when he swung out a "tornado style" move, forming a high-speed rotating tornado with him and the Qiu Yuan Sword as the center.
Before Xu Lijin's sword was fully deployed, the suction force at the center of the storm had swallowed up the willow leaf, and the sword energy, spiritual energy and soul power contained in it instantly lost contact with it.
He was busy trying to change his moves, but before he had time, the eye of the wind locked onto him in the blink of an eye, and the powerful drag force made it difficult for him to stand still.
Xu Lijin reluctantly waved the "Concentric Leaf" and turned to defense. The lancet wrapped him into a green cocoon and protected him.
The storm cut the silkworm clothes, making a harsh sound, but he finally withstood the attack.
Before he could even breathe a sigh of relief, Jin Ziming's "tail-puckering" attack came.
Qiu Yuan set off a violent wave of air, and a dragon tail struck Xu Lijin on the chest like lightning, knocking him away and falling onto the grass.
This is of course because Jin Ziming stopped his hand and did not let the subsequent energy, sword force and long sword fall on him.
Xu Lijin got up from the ground and said sincerely:
"Thank you, Junior Brother Jin, for showing mercy. I'm convinced."
Li Shaojie next to him glanced at Li Ao, and the two of them smacked their lips secretly.
Jin Ziming led his team to stay at the designated location for three months, and dealt with three small animal waves, one of which went to aid his faction.
I was also ordered to enter the monster forest twice for reconnaissance. Since I didn't go too far, the strongest monsters I encountered were only at the early stage of the fourth level, so there was no danger.
Everyone gradually became familiar with each other, and the other three members of Lingyun Sect were Wu Liang, Chen Xing and the guy nicknamed Mu Mu.
In addition to Xu Lijin, the lower sect also has the pair of senior brothers from Nankun Mountain.
Li Shaojie doesn't like to talk, and often smokes tobacco in his hometown silently. He and his junior brother Li Ao are fellow villagers, both from the northwest of Xijinzhou. This time they took the initiative to come to the front line.
Their hometown was once ravaged by monsters, and many relatives died. He loved his junior brother very much and regarded him as family.
I didn't agree with Li Ao coming this time, but unfortunately the other party was facing the bottleneck of breaking through to Nascent Soul, and needed this kind of life-and-death experience.
In his free time, Jin Ziming began to study the newly acquired "Soul Whirlwind".
This is an indiscriminate soul attack method that is effective against all surrounding creatures, regardless of friend or foe, not only humans and monsters, but even spiritual plants are not spared.
When casting a spell, you first use your own soul power to form a whirlwind to hit the target.
The opponent will definitely resist with his soul. The beauty of this technique is that the whirlwind specializes in absorbing the soul power of resistance. The more you struggle, the more soul power you extract.
