Shi Jue went into seclusion again. He held the Tiangong Alchemy furnace in his hand, with one thought three points. He practiced and practiced alchemy at the same time. This is the benefit of one thought three points. His practice efficiency was equivalent to three times.
Shi Jue practices while practicing in his residence. The speed of alchemy in Longquan Continent is much faster than that in the trial area. Even a sub-immortal elixir furnace is only a few hours. The Tiangong Pill Furnace, which uses the best immortal crystal, exerts its true power and can be mass-produced.
In two months, Shi Jue sorted out all the things he had learned, and his practice ideas became clearer and clearer, and he no longer felt the stones crossing the river like before.
The alchemy and weapon arts have matured again. With the experience of forging immortal weapons, he also has the ability to refine immortal pills. However, he does not have immortal medicinal materials in his hand, and these materials are sky-high. Perhaps only those empires and the eighteen major sects have them.
Shi Jue has already penetrated into the range of the activities of the Holy Emperor monsters in the forest, and all he can get is the Holy Emperor level medicinal materials. With his current strength, he has no way to penetrate into the depths of the forest.
All tens of thousands of elixirs were completed. He handed over the house to Ye Zimei, took some fairy crystals and holy crystals from her and explained some things, and left the Dancheng again.
He learned about the situation in the north. There was no sect of Ice Palace, nor did there be any country or sect related to Ice. There was no clear climate here with four seasons. From hundreds of thousands of miles to the north, the climate was not very different. In other words, the range of human activities in Longquan continent is only a small part.
Judging from Bingwen's expression in the trial area, she should have a lot to do with this continent. And she should have come from a major sect on this continent, but why are there no sects related to her here? How many secrets do this huge continent still exist?
Although Shi Jue was curious, he didn't have so much time to investigate. For him, he not only had to guard against the temple, but also worked hard to improve his strength.
The north is an important base of the Rebel Army. No one knows where the base is. There are also some sporadic resistance organizations in the hinterland of Longquan Continent, but important organizations are deep in the northern forests.
There are still countless forests and mountains in the heart of Longquan Continent, and there are many monsters, but their strength is not very strong. There are many bandits in these forests and mountains, and there are also some small resistance organizations.
But the real main force is hidden within the scope of mercenaries' activities, and their base exists in the forest in the north. Therefore, this is also a place where the temple focuses on taking care of. The temple controls two principalities here and has a powerful palace guarding legion, which is dedicated to dealing with the resistance legion here.
Therefore, the Mercenary Hall also has a powerful army to guard Dancheng. The Mercenary Hall, which is in the gap between the two forces, holds the principle of not helping each other. As long as they are not in the scope of Dancheng, they will not tend to either side suppress the other side. Besides, the Mercenary Hall is still just a loose organization to the outside world.
So the mercenaries here are also very special. Maybe it is the power of the temple or the power of the resistance forces. The friction and battle between the mercenary teams here are also very fierce. Therefore, most mercenaries will choose the south, west and east, and few people choose to move in the north.
When he went deep into the forest, Shi Jue did not look for the base of the rebels, nor did he find trouble for the temple here. He has been in Longquan Continent for so long, but he does not belong to this continent. He is just a piece of duckweed floating wherever he goes.
For him, practicing like mercenaries in the forest is the most suitable for him, and he also likes this way of practice. Besides, in the hinterland of the mainland, he has been divided up by major forces and insufficient resources. Now he is wanted by the temple, so there will be a lot of trouble. It is better to take risks here.
The two principalities were on the left and right sides of Dancheng, and they also built bridgeheads in the forest. More than 100,000 miles apart, the direction of Dancheng deep into the forest did not have the power to station the temple, and this was still a paradise for mercenaries.
The strength of the mage mercenary group here is generally high, at least the team of holy generals and magicians. On the other hand, the mercenary team of mainland warriors is not very strong, but the number of people is more than hundreds.
Along the way, Shi Jue saw several conflicts between the mainland warrior mercenaries and the magician team. There are often victories and losses, and the mercenary team often wins with the number of people. But as long as there is reinforcement from the magician team, the mercenary team will definitely suffer a crushing defeat.
Every battle is a life-and-death battle, and the failed party will not leave any living. Often, a battle will leave a lot of food for the monsters.
This gave Shi Jue a chance to understand the magician. Controlling the energy attack in the world is much more powerful than using his own spiritual power to attack. The close-range attack profession must be limited by ranged attacks. This gap has caused the mercenary group to suffer losses in every battle.
Moreover, the magicians here have stronger combat skills and can accurately use cooperation and movement to control the rhythm of the battle. Each large skill causes a large range of damage, and then the magic swordsman breaks in. There is no good way to deal with this tactic.
Shi Jue realized at this time that this large-scale attack was not only used by the Holy Demon Master. It was only restricted by the mental power that the magistrate needed to recover after using it once. And its power was not large enough. In the southern forest, they dealt with single targets, so they did not use this large-scale skill to save mental power.
Only here did he fully realize the power of the magician. He indeed suppressed the warriors of the Longquan Continent from the perspective of martial arts and mental methods, which is also the reason why the temple can establish a huge power system on the continent.
It is not just a tactical and strategic issue to fundamentally change this situation, but a fundamentally organize the martial arts and mental system of Longquan Continent and develop a new method with long-range attack.
If you are in a trial place, the warrior's qi can attack dozens of meters or hundreds of meters, and the magician will not take any advantage.
Another way is that the two professions of bows and arrows and assassins can threaten the safety of magicians. However, the Holy General-level magicians can mobilize the energy of heaven and earth to form a very strong energy shield, which is even more powerful than the warrior's protective energy. To break their defense, the requirements for bows and arrows are very high.
At least it is only a high-level crossbow that can break the magician's energy shield. However, it has no effect on the holy demon. Because the cost is too high, the materials spent on creating ten thousand such bows will be unbearable even in a principality, not to mention that those crossbows are consumables, which are obviously not feasible.
There is no way for the assassin to face a magician one to two levels higher than him. It is easy to be discovered by them. Once they find that the assassin's ability to survive in battle is quite low. Unless Xiang Shijue has a formation to assist, it can pose a threat to magicians of level or higher level. In other words, only the dual cultivation of magic and martial arts is the only shortcut to defeat the temple.
Thinking of the relationship between the temple and himself, Shi Jue became more determined to study magic and martial arts. Only in this way can he have the strength to stand opposite to the temple.
Along the way, he kept increasing the speed of using mental power to control the energy circuit and the method of quickly condensing the energy of heaven and earth. Gestures, with the help of gestures! Because using mental power to control the spiritual power in the body forms an energy circuit like using martial arts, each attack gesture can quickly pass through the meridians to call the spiritual power in the body, which is conducive to quickly forming an energy circuit through mental power to borrow the energy of heaven and earth.
A set of standardized hands were formed in his sea of consciousness. Each action represents a method of condensing an attacking party to try. Open your big hand, condense a big hand over a hundred meters away, and then press it down. A huge rock flew across the ground, and the trees turned into powder.
Shi Jue nodded with satisfaction. Yes, he improved his control of the energy of heaven and earth one step further. The attack method is completely different from that of the magician. The speed of condensed energy of heaven and earth is fast, and it can also transform into various martial arts to attack.
It's just that its power is not as powerful as a range attack by a magician. It's much more powerful when it cannot be attacked in a single body. The advantage is that it can borrow the energy of heaven and earth quickly and the energy attacks are diversified.
With a new direction, one thought of him began to focus on the research of this gesture. This field is profound and profound and cannot be completed in a short time.
Shi Jue slowly penetrated into the forest with the white tiger in his arms, and the strength of the mercenary team became stronger and stronger. Suddenly, a team of women's mercenaries appeared in front of Shi Jue's eyes, and he stopped curiously...
...
Five legions, each of which has reached ten teams. That is, they have more than 900 people, and some people have joined in one after another. These people were rushed in this direction by the army, and were almost the same as the savages when they were taken in by them.
After their on-site inspections, the action plan has been issued. Several small towns nearly ten thousand miles away from Longxing Mountain have become their targets.
Tiecheng, Baimucheng and Nanjing City form a three-legged force. Tiecheng and Baimucheng are on the periphery of the forest. Although these cities are on the periphery, they sometimes suffer from the impact of beast tides. Therefore, there are not many villages around, and most of the residents here live in the city. They are more lively than other cities.
Although there is no organization of the Mercenary Hall, it is an activity base for civilian warriors to form teams to go deep into the forest to experience and earn income. The main reason why Yuan Hao chose this place is that on the one hand, there is no danger of being attacked on both sides, and on the other hand, there are relatively large migrant populations here, so their actions will have a great influence.
Three cities and five legions were divided into three parts. Yuan Hao personally led the Qilin Legion, White Tiger, and Green Dragon to divide it into two groups. Attacked three targets respectively. The two teams of Zhuque and Xuanwu served blocking tasks on the edge of the forest. This kind of fighting style Yuan Hao is often used in trial places.
Once the battle begins, the temple will reinforce through the teleportation array. The first thing to control is the teleportation array. Force the reinforcement troops to come from other cities. The distance between each city is thousands of miles, and they have to come over at least one to two hours by land. It is enough for them to retreat calmly.
Nanjing City.
Yuan Hao and the Qilin Legion scattered into the city through the teleportation array. Then they began to reconnaise the situation in the city. It looked like a square foot of two hundred miles, and most people in the Longquan Continent still lived in the city, which is already the tradition of the Longquan Continent.
About one-fifth of people live in the wild and most of them engage in agricultural production activities. Some people choose to live along the forest or choose to live in small blessed places in the forest. What they are greedy for is a comfortable and leisurely life.
There are about one or two million people living in the city, about hundreds of thousands outside the city, and about two hundred thousand people under the jurisdiction of Nanjing City. The Yuewu Duke’s Duke’s capital is about one thousand cities like this, which means that the Yuewu Duke’s capital is more than 1,000 miles, which is the base of 200 to 300 million people.
Therefore, many places here still belong to the primeval forest, and there are still a large number of not very powerful monsters. There are a large number of materials and materials in the forest, so there is no poverty like the trial place here.
After all, the area of Longquan Continent is too large, and the population growth rate cannot keep up with the speed of human death and continental area expansion. Every thousand years, humans will expand into the depths of the forests thousands of miles. There are countless people who die in the city of mercenaries every year.
