Nineteenth Defense Zone! Thanks to "New Year's Eve Baby" for the ten-thousand-yuan tip!

Besides Qingshan and Qingyu.

Lu Qingfeng's own cultivation aspect—

"In reality, those who cultivate to become True Immortal already possess the initial ability to protect themselves."

He will then cultivate step by step. With his cultivation level Earth Immortal, he will surely be able to attain enlightenment again in the Spirit Domain within ten thousand years at most.

There's no need to worry about that.

As for 'preaching'.

"Nine Nether Domain, there are more than 3,600 small worlds."

"There are no fewer than tens of thousands of small worlds in the entire Spirit Domain."

"If one can enter even one tenth of its worlds, becoming Earth Immortal is no problem."

Lu Qingfeng had tried the "Preaching" technique both in the game and in real life, and had some understanding of how much this technique could improve his strength.

But the Spirit Domain has Immortal Court.

Without the decree of the Immortal Court, no cultivator may enter the lower realm at will.

It's one thing to do it secretly.

However, his method involves grandly expounding the Great Dao, which creates too much noise and inevitably attracts the attention of the Immortal Court.

"The three branches of Daoism and two Buddhist Sect jointly built the 'Immortal Court'."

"This is a behemoth."

Lu Qingfeng shook his head.

Without knowing the details of the Immortal Court or the depths of the Spirit Domain, he dared not act rashly.

After we learn more about the Spirit Domain and the Immortal Court, we might be able to find a way to exploit a loophole.

But from outside the region—

"There is great potential!"

Lu Qingfeng thought of the situation abroad.

Beyond the realm, Devil Creature wreak havoc, making it a lawless zone beyond the control of the Immortal Court, a chaotic battlefield where two sides clash. Within this realm, there are also many large and small worlds, where chaos is difficult to detect, making them suitable for "preaching" and quiet development.

Lu Qingfeng possesses extraordinary Divine Ability and extensive knowledge, making him perfectly suited for venturing into the outer realms.

But.

The land beyond is dangerous; it is not advisable for my true form to go there.

"I now have two External Incarnation."

"First, there is the 'Azure Wood Avatar' among the Three Mountains and Nine Rivers."

"Secondly, it is an 'Eight Desolations Avatar' from beyond the realm."

Two clones.

He was of great use when Lu Qingfeng was still in a lowly position.

However, as Lu Qingfeng advanced to True Immortal, his External Incarnation, forged with an eighth-order Law Artifact, appeared somewhat weak.

Firstly, the inability to cultivate Divine Ability or refine magical Law Artifact and Immortal Artifact would have a significant impact on one's strength.

Like Eight Desolations Avatar.

His Law Power is comparable to that of True Immortal, and his eighth-tier Law Artifact body is no weaker than that of True Immortal. However, he has no other means of dealing with magic besides the power of his Law Artifact.

The strength of the Eight Desolations Avatar lies in the Battle City that Lu Qingfeng built at great expense.

Dig open the Battle City.

In a one-on-one fight, the Eight Desolations Avatar are only equivalent to a True Immortal of the First Realm (True Immortal of the First Realm of Mahayana Resonance Realm).

As for the Azure Wood Avatar, it only possesses the Primordial Spirit and combat power of Primordial Spirit.

"Although I have now left the Three Mountains and Nine Rivers, I still need to pretend that I am still in the Mountain-Water Realm as the 'Daoist Du Tian'."

"Azure Wood Avatar needs to show his presence every now and then."

"We cannot evacuate."

Lu Qingfeng was clear-headed.

If Lu Qingfeng had just ascended to immortality and the Daoist Du Tian of the Three Mountains and Nine Rivers had also disappeared at the same time, it might arouse suspicion from those with ulterior motives.

It's never a bad thing to have extra precautions.

It was just a clone, and it didn't have much of an impact on Lu Qingfeng.

Other cultivators, even Mahayana True Immortal, who have obtained the Divine Ability 'External Incarnation', dare not refine too many clones, lest their Primordial Spirit become too divided, their spirituality become thin, and their comprehension be reduced, making it difficult to comprehend the Great Dao.

His cultivation progress was affected.

Lu Qingfeng, don't worry.

He improves his cultivation in the novel "Primordial World," but in reality, as long as his comprehension is sufficient, it doesn't matter much.

External Incarnation is then free from all taboos.

Certainly.

Ideally, one should obtain Spirit Root such as the 'Pure Law Bamboo' or the 'Seven-Treasure Gourd' to cultivate an avatar.

Firstly, its strength is improving rapidly, and secondly, its potential is enormous.

If it were an ordinary clone...

Examples include the "Azurewood King Cauldron" and the "Eight Desolations Profound Fire Mirror".

Consumes resources.

It takes a lot of effort.

Ultimately, he could only advance to the level of True Immortal, which was far too unworthy.

"Spirit Root are hard to find."

"But within the Human Dao Dharma Domain, I obtained the methods and secrets of 'Fangxian Path', 'Literary Path', 'Martial Path', and 'Path of Fortune'."

"There is also the * Yellow Court Scripture *, which is not afraid of Karmic Power."

"You can easily create several clones, cultivate the 'Fangxian Path,' the 'Literary Path,' the 'Martial Path,' and the 'Imperial Path.' Starting from the mortal world, as long as the land is vast and the population is large, your strength can rise rapidly."

"If another spirit is created, it can spread the Dao everywhere. Later, it can be retrieved to increase Law Power and strengthen the primordial Primordial Spirit."

Lu Qingfeng already had a plan in mind.

The Primordial Spirit is brewing.

Five strands of Primordial Spirit essence were peeled off and thrown into the black hole vortex at the core of the Primordial Spirit.

A moment can encompass a vast distance.

Lu Qingfeng was a newly promoted True Immortal upon entering Heaven-Piercing Gorge.

Current priority.

It is to solidify the realm of the True Immortal Realm.

It is to be familiar with the environment of Heaven-Piercing Gorge and Spirit Domain.

There are no specific matters at the moment.

Therefore, Lu Qingfeng focused his energy on the 'Eight Desolations Avatar' outside the realm.

In this vast and desolate place, the sky is dark and sand flies everywhere.

On the earth.

There stands a magnificent city, with the words "Eight Desolations" inscribed on its city gate.

The dragon and phoenix danced, imbued with an extremely powerful sword intent.

A Daoist priest in a red robe with long hair, unrestrained and free, exuded Savage Wilderness and untamed aura, radiating a fiery and scorching presence.

It was indeed the 'Eight-Wastes Daoist'.

Eight-Wastes City.

One after another, the barren mountains rose up like giants, running through the wind and sand.

Boom boom boom!

The earthquake trembled.

Arriving at the four corners of the Eight-Wastes City, surrounded by barren mountains, the rocks shifted and instantly formed five fortified cities.

Surrounding the Eight-Wastes City.

Books are divided into: 'Mountain Spirit', 'Demon Slayer', 'Divine Fire', 'Cold Rain', and 'Broken Army'.

This is named after the Five Elements Dao Soldiers.

Mountain Spirit Warrior.

Immortal-Slaying Dao Soldiers.

Divine Flame General.

Cold Rain Immortal.

The Army-Breaking Swordsman.

Speaking of these Five Elements Dao Soldiers, they were captured by Lu Qingfeng when Daoist Hu Feng from beyond the heavens attacked the Three Mountains and Nine Rivers. After years of cultivation and several refinements and enhancements in the game, these Five Elements Dao Soldiers are already among the top-tier fourth-tier Dao Soldiers.

Currently, there are 2,400 Five Elements Dao Soldiers in the Eight-Wastes City.

They are incredibly powerful.

In this chaotic world beyond, it will be of great use.

As the five fortified cities rose, Zhu Yang strode in from beyond the heavens, accompanied by the ferocious and terrifying 'Eight-Legged Blade Chi' that followed Zhu Yang like a wolf or a dog.

Go straight into Eight-Wastes City.

"General."

"The Azurecloud Great Realm and the two sub-realms, Nine Cauldrons and Black Sea, have all been taken over. The original Primordial Spirit teams stationed there have all returned to 'Guan Hai City'."

"The defenses of the Three Realms are currently weak."

"In addition, there are eight minor realms within the 'Nineteenth Defense Zone' guarded by the Eight-Wastes City. The minor realms are easy to deal with, but the Three Realms Azurecloud, Nine Cauldrons, and Black Sea still lack Primordial Spirit to suppress them. During this period, large and small battles have been fought on various battlefields, and many Devil Creature have scattered and fled into the worlds of varying sizes in a panic. They need to be purged urgently, or chaos may ensue if left unchecked."

Zhu Yang went straight to Lu Qingfeng and, disregarding his travel-worn appearance, reported to Lu Qingfeng.

The Outer Realm Battlefield is chaotic yet orderly.

Years of struggle.

The Devil Creature are rampant.

The Spirit Domain Immortal Court successively opened up battlefields in all ten realms.

For example, the 'Nine Nether Domain' has constructed multiple lines of defense, including seven lines of defense and seven battle zones.

From the inside out, they are the seventh to the First War Domain.

The battleground extends downwards.

It is further subdivided into war zones and defense lines.

Lu Qingfeng and Zhu Yang, having traveled from the Lesser Dragon-Tiger Realm aboard the 'Jade Dragon,' arrived at the Outer Realm Battlefield. They are currently in the 137th War Zone of the Third War Domain.

Guarding this battlefield were two disciples of Patriarch Qin of Heaven-Piercing Gorge—

The eldest disciple, Yan Guanhai.

The second disciple, 'Tingfengzi'.

Yan Guanhai was ranked as a Grand General, in charge of the 137th War Zone.

The battlefield was divided into twenty defense zones.

Lu Qingfeng came to seek refuge, and with Han Ling'er's introduction, he was entrusted with an important task.

He was awarded the rank of 'General' and ordered to guard the Nineteenth Defense Zone.

It has one great realm under its jurisdiction, capable of accommodating Mahayana True Immortal, called 'Azurecloud'. It also has two secondary realms capable of accommodating Primordial Spirit cultivators, called 'Nine Cauldrons' and 'Black Sea' respectively.

In addition, there are eight smaller realms that can only accommodate Golden Core cultivators.

These major, minor, and secondary realms, though mostly ruined and lacking in resources due to war, are now largely devastated.

But there are also many Spirit Birth inside.

The defense zone is quite large, but there are no subordinates.

Lu Qingfeng is under considerable pressure guarding this place.

After listening to Zhu Yang's report, Lu Qingfeng shook his head and said, "The 137th War Zone suffered heavy losses after being attacked by two 'Azure Jade Demon Spirit' legions. Even the immortal ship 'Jade Dragon' was almost destroyed. 'Guan Hai City' is guarding the five most dangerous defense zones and is short-handed at the moment."

Foreign wars continue.

Of the seven battle zones, the First War Domain is the most dangerous. The Third War Domain is not far away, and it is also a place where major battles are frequent, with smaller skirmishes constantly occurring.

He and Zhu Yang had just arrived.

It just so happens that a major battle is taking place.

Two 'Azure Jade Demon Spirit' legions stormed into the 137th War Zone. Although they were scattered, the damage they caused was considerable, and even a True Immortal was killed in battle.

The 'Jade Dragon' was also nearly destroyed.

As for the Primordial Spirit cultivators, countless have died in battle, and the current forces are severely insufficient.

The "Jade Dragon" made its way back through Heaven-Piercing Gorge.

In addition to repairing and resting, it is also to recruit more Primordial Spirit cultivators as soon as possible to replenish the empty defenses under Yan Guanhai's command.

Even the 137th war zone is short-handed.

Not to mention the Nineteenth Defense Zone assigned to Lu Qingfeng.

Aside from the three hastily recruited Nascent Primordial Spirit teams, totaling thirty Primordial Spirit cultivators, Lu Qingfeng only had Zhu Yang under his command.

As for Dao Soldiers.

The restrictions are too great.

Although their combat strength is considerable, they lack autonomy.

It's fine for fighting, but it's not enough to guard a realm. Not to mention, there are also many Devil Creature lurking in the void stars beyond the realm, posing a considerable threat that also needs to be dealt with.

"I have already used the 'General's Seal' to issue a mission to attract 'streets' to come and clear out the Devil Creature in the defense zone."

"As for the realms of Azurecloud, I will personally supervise and dispatch Dao Soldiers to suppress them for the time being."

Seeing Zhu Yang's grave expression, Lu Qingfeng immediately spoke.

It would take at least twenty Nascent Primordial Spirit teams to suppress the Azurecloud Great Realm.

Both the Nine Cauldrons and the Black Sea realms require two or three Primordial Spirit squads.

However, the 'Eight-Wastes City' only has three Primordial Spirit squads.

The shortage is simply too large.

Currently, only Lu Qingfeng can step up.

"But ultimately, it's not a long-term solution," Zhu Yang said with a wry smile.

Outer Realm Battlefield.

Mahayana True Immortal serve as generals, Primordial Spirit cultivators serve as soldiers.

The soldiers and generals each took their positions.

True Immortal must oversee the entire situation, guard against fifth-tier Devil Creature, and also find time to cultivate.

Where would we find the extra energy to deal with the endless stream of mid-level Devil Creature lurking in the vast and boundless world?!

"That's all for now."

Lu Qingfeng had a plan in mind and was not flustered. He said to Zhu Yang, "I'll trouble you, Brother Zhu, to go and recruit a few mining teams in the Azurecloud and other realms. Most of the mines in the Nineteenth Defense Zone have been destroyed and need to be rebuilt to have enough resources to attract more Primordial Spirit warriors and Primordial Spirit soldiers to serve us."

The area guarded by Mahayana True Immortal is extremely dangerous; a slight mistake could result in being killed by a fifth-tier Devil Creature.

But the returns are also substantial.

Besides the various materials obtained from slaying Devil Creature, there were also many minerals in the garrisoned area. After mining them, apart from handing over a portion, most of the remainder went into the True Immortal's pocket.

These minerals are not necessarily rare.

But its advantage lies in its large quantity.

Little by little, over hundreds or thousands of years, the harvest can be quite substantial.

Also.

True Immortal guard and manage their respective regions.

Take Lu Qingfeng, for example. He is stationed in the Nineteenth Defense Zone, and he governs and manages eleven worlds, large and small. He passes down his lineage and selects geniuses from among them to become his disciples.

If they operate for thousands or tens of thousands of years, they might even cultivate one or two True Immortal disciples.

This is also a hidden benefit.

However, this is an ordinary True Immortal.

For Lu Qingfeng, the greatest benefit, however, lies in—
