Chapter 758: Chapter 442: The Fourteenth Level of the Immortality Sutra(8k))_1 Chapter 758: Chapter 442: The Fourteenth Level of the Immortality Sutra(8k))_1 I’ll just do it.
Chen Mobai immediately took out the Formless Puppet and extrapolated the cultivation process of the Precious Golden Light. As it turned out, his cultivation speed was quite commendable.
Probably because his Metal Spirit Root was at 23 points.
After all, before he got the opportunity from the Turtle Treasure, Chen Mobai had True Spirit Roots of gold, wood, and water. He even dreamed of becoming a prominent and handsome Sword Cultivator when he was young.
However, because he later practiced the two-phase technique that integrated both wood and fire, his Metal Spirit Root was basically never developed.
Now that he is in the Perfection stage of Foundation Establishment, practicing this Precious Golden Light method with the assistance of the Formless Puppet is naturally easy to comprehend.
Regrettably, he was currently on a battlefield. Chen Mobai didn’t want to be distracted, so he temporarily put this Precious Golden Light method in his Storage Bag, intending to practice it when he had spare time after the war ended and he returned to Xiao Nanshan.
Having a clear plan, Chen Mobai tidied up the things he had poured out from Xuan Jinzhi’s Storage Bag.
Things like Spirit Stones, elixirs, and cultivation techniques were of course kept in his bag.
Those useless clothes were returned to the original Storage Bag. Then he called Luo Yixuan over and asked his disciple to deal with them.
“How is the team assembly going?”
Chen Mobai asked about the situation with the previously dispersed cultivators. Luo Yixuan, who was guarding outside, could see that quite a few people had been successively returned by the Qi Practitioners of Foundation Establishment from the Divine Wood Sect.
But the number of people was much fewer.
Both master and disciple stepped out of the tent. Chen Mobai flew mid-air for an overview of the camp and roughly calculated that there were around 2,700 people.
Of these, 1,000 were those he brought. This meant that of the original 3,000 people, besides the 1,000 from his own Divine Wood Sect, only 700 Loose Cultivators and disciple from influential families remain after the debacle.
Chen Mobai called Xie Yuntian and Yuan Chiye, who were left in the camp, over to confirm the specifics of the troop makeup.
“Only over a hundred of the fleeing Loose Cultivators were caught and brought back by Junior Brother Zhou’s group. The other 600 are Qi Practitioners from influential families and minor sects. Most of them have concerns and did not dare to run too far. They all rushed back when they saw your great power from not far away.”
Having heard Xie Yuntian’s statement, Chen Mobai nodded lightly. He had not harbored much expectation towards these Loose Cultivators who fled.
“Let’s aim to gather 3,000 people. With that, we will be able to evolve three Giant Wooden Armored Soldiers, which will increase our chances of victory when attacking Shake Mountain.”
After Chen Mobai issued a command, Xie Yuntian immediately nodded. The camp had also stabilized by this time. After all, the final result was their Divine Wood Sect’s victory. For the sect disciples and attached influential families and minor sects, this was a reassurance.
“In this battle, probably over 300 Qi Practitioners have died, of which 36 were our sect disciples. More than half of them were from our sword training department.”
After they finished speaking, Yuan Chiye also stepped forward to report on casualties.
After hearing this, Xie Yuntian’s face turned somber.
Before Chen Mobai arrived, the cultivators from Shake Mountain had entered the Divine Wood Sect’s camp through the Golden Bridge Battle Array and slaughtered wildly.
If it wasn’t for Xie Yuntian leading the sword training department to check Xuan Xiao Taoist Palace’s 300 disciples in time and single-handedly stalling Xuan Qiao and Xuan Jinzhi, I’m afraid the casualties would have been greater.
The sword training department lived up to its reputation as the number one combat department of the Divine Wood Sect, stalling the first wave of the most violent attack on the most dangerous battlefield.
“Elder Yuan, take note. After the war ends, give the descendants compensation as agreed upon for casualties.”
After hearing this, Yuan Chiye nodded.
By nightfall, Zhou Wangshen and other Qi Practitioners of Foundation Establishment returned and brought back more than a hundred people.
The next day, Chen Mobai did not send them out again.
He started to command everyone to divide the soldiers and practice. Here, there were a total of 24 Qi Practitioners of Foundation Establishment from the Divine Wood Sect.
Among them were two Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Lei Nation, and they were precisely the ones familiar to Chen Mobai: Lian Chenghai and his group.
Originally, there were three, but one of them unfortunately fell during the previous battle with Shake Mountain.
But it wasn’t just him, even two Foundation Establishment cultivators from the Divine Wood Sect had died in battle too.
Chen Mobai divided the over 2,800 Qi Practitioners. He had each Foundation Establishment cultivator lead a team of 100. The two teams under his command as the chief general remained the same.
Among them, Xie Yuntian continued to lead his 300 elite sword training department members, serving as the mobile troop during battles.
Chen Mobai was in no rush. He led this army to besiege the camp where Shake Mountain was located, using the Fixed Mountain Battle Array across them for daily training and drilling.
Under his command, the Alpha Wood Soldier formation became more and more proficient. Once, ten squads combined to form a giant Taoist Soldier over 30 meters tall.
The Giant Taoist Soldier had demonstrated the power of the Golden Core Stage. Chen Mobai did not miss this opportunity and experienced it with his own Divine Sense serving as the core.
He manipulated and drove the blue giant, formed by the combined spiritual energy of a thousand Qi Practitioners. The left hand commanded a hurricane, the right hand thunder. He bombarded Shake Mountain’s battle array relentlessly.
This made the protective mountain barrier began to distort slightly. Unfortunately, they still couldn’t break it.
Additionally, the form of ten combined, producing the Giant Alpha Wood Soldier, couldn’t be sustained for long. Just after a few minutes, Chen Mobai felt a rapid decline in power.
