This is Flying Cloud Pass.

A massive, endless city wall stretches out to both sides, and Flying Cloud Pass stands between these walls.

The entire pass was heavily guarded by countless concepts, and the group had only walked around Flying Cloud Pass for a short while when they felt the pressure it brought.

After waiting at the ferry for a short while, several immortals flew out from the checkpoint and landed in front of them.

"I am Huang Feihu, stationed at Flying Cloud Pass. Welcome, fellow Daoists."

The newcomer was dressed in heavy armor and looked like a military general.

"Enough of the small talk, gentlemen, please come inside the pass for a chat."

His attire revealed his decisive and efficient personality; without any unnecessary words, he immediately invited everyone to enter the pass.

Without any hesitation, the group followed Huang Feihu into the pass, having already arrived at the front lines.

Flying Cloud Pass contains several smaller worlds, within which all the supplies and logistical support for the entire pass are carried out.

In other words, except when high combat power is needed and reinforcements are required from the garrison, the entire Flying Cloud Pass can operate on its own at other times.

The entrances to the small world are all located in the military camp hall inside the pass, guarded day and night by immortals. Almost no one can sneak in and cause trouble under their noses.

The group followed Huang Feihu to the training ground inside the pass, where many cultivators were practicing their skills. Upon seeing these newly arrived immortals, they couldn't help but turn their heads to look over.

"Since you have all accepted this task, I won't say any more. Flying Cloud Pass is short of manpower everywhere. I will summon the garrison personnel from each department in a moment. You can then receive your tasks and go about your business."

As the group arrived at the training ground, several cultivators who appeared to be generals surrounded them from the military camp.

Huang Feihu pointed to several officers one by one and said.

" War Division, Shao Division, Logistics Division, Engineering Division, Guard Division."

" The Five Flying Cloud Divisions each have their own responsibilities. Please choose a task according to your abilities."

"By the way, our main adversary this time is the Spirit Clan. We need to be mentally prepared after we emerge from seclusion to avoid falling into their trap."

After briefly explaining the situation inside Flying Cloud Pass to everyone, Huang Feihu turned and went into his tent.

These immortals who came to provide support naturally had different tasks than ordinary soldiers. Strictly speaking, they had no superior-subordinate relationship with Huang Feihu; they were equals.

Military regulations were difficult to apply to everyone, and Huang Feihu was too lazy to negotiate with them further.

To him, these immortals were all just passing through, and there was no need to interact with them.

As a War Immortal, he will Jidu be able to rise and fall in this Era of Chaos for the rest of his life. Apart from this Era of Chaos, there is basically no room for War Immortals to exert their abilities in the peace and stability of other eras.

Retirement is nonsense for immortals.

After Huang Feihu left, the immortals who had gathered in the center of the training ground dispersed and headed towards the Five Divisions.

Because most immortals had extensive experience traveling through Era of Chaos, they knew what they were good at and quickly took on the tasks they were best at.

What mission are you planning to take on?

Seeing that everyone had a goal, Liu Shinian looked at Li Xingkong.

"I'm new here, so I don't know anything either. What about you, Fellow Daoist Liu?"

"Don't call me 'fellow Daoist,' just call me Little Liu."

Liu Shinian paced back and forth several times.

"If it were just me, I could just take on a logistics task and stay in the rear, contributing without lifting a finger. But, well, newbies always need to see the world..."

Liu Shinian thought for a moment, then slapped his forehead.

"We can't have a proper fight. Neither I nor you are combat-oriented immortals. With the little blessing we have, we can only protect ourselves at best."

"The missions at the rear are nothing interesting, incredibly boring."

"By the way, even though you're Human Immortal, do you have any special skills?"

Liu Shinian suddenly remembered that she hadn't asked Li Xingkong what he was good at yet.

"I'm good at spatial Traversal."

Li Xingkong examined himself and found that the talisman inside his body, which was still slowly rotating, was functioning normally.

"Hey, hey, hey, this Flying Cloud Pass is a spatially desolate place, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Liu Shinian didn't believe that a Human Immortal like him could Xingkong jumps in this environment.

Just as Li Xingkong was about to explain, he saw Liu Shinian clap his hands together.

"Hmm, how about this, let's go get a cleaning job."

"Cleaning task?"

"Yes, yes, this is perfect. It's safe, there's no fighting, and we can even go to the front lines to watch the excitement."

As she spoke, she led Li Xingkong to the Logistics Division department.

"What does this cleaning task entail?"

"Simple. There are always spoils of war after a battle on the front lines, and the battlefield always needs to be cleaned up. These things need to be done by specialists."

The two quickly found cleaning-related tasks from the Logistics Division officer, but such leisurely tasks were certainly not unpopular.

"Young friend, this cleaning task is quite complicated, and I'm afraid the two of you won't be able to handle it. How about you transfer it to me?"

Just as Liu Shinian took the task in his hands, he heard a voice coming from behind him.

The two turned around and saw a small team of four.

The person who spoke to me was an elderly man with a sage-like demeanor, who rode a deer and slowly approached.

Behind him stood a burly man, 4-5 meters tall, shirtless, his muscles bulging explosively, followed by two identical cultivators, like twins.

The only difference was that one person was dressed in black and the other in white.

"This task was assigned on a first-come, first-served basis, and since we've also taken a liking to it, there's no reason for us to give it up."

Liu Shinian clearly had no intention of reselling it.

"That's not quite right. The mission at Flying Cloud Pass isn't about order of arrival, but about the allocation of personnel. It's best if the officer decides who gets the mission."

The logistics officer nodded; clearly, this was indeed the practice of Flying Cloud Pass.

"Hmph, let's compete then."

Liu Shinian slammed the mission card on the table.

"Young friend, don't be so impatient. For this mission, it's best to choose the one that suits you best. My concept leans towards reconnaissance, and I'm called ' Seeking and Appraisal.' This strongman's concept is 'Cauldron Lifting,' possessing immense strength. And these twins, although Human Immortal, have incredibly fast speed and are aided by magical treasures, so moving them will be no problem."

Judging from these people, their team was clearly well-equipped, with exploration and transportation being the basic concepts involved.

A professional team, you can tell they're a professional team at a glance.

"Hmph, we're not bad either."

Liu Shinian gave a light snort, and then spoke.

"As the person in charge of integrity, everything I do is in accordance with my conscience, and I would never engage in any act of embezzlement or corruption. But this fellow Daoist..."

Li Xingkong picked up the conversation.

"I am skilled in spatial Traversal and also cultivate my Dao of Self; all kinds of techniques are readily available for my use."

Although Liu Shinian didn't say anything, he secretly gave Li Xingkong a thumbs up.

It's true that she can't lie, but that doesn't mean Li Xingkong can't. He'll take on this mission first.

At worst, the two of them can simply use the blessings from their anchor points for a transfer.
