Although Li Xingkong and Liu Shinian are only two people, their combined abilities are comparable to those of the four-person team.

There aren't many immortals who are related to the Si Xin (a type of immortal), and even in this Flying Cloud Pass, only immortal artifacts are stationed there. Compared to battle immortals, this ability to stabilize the rear is a rare and highly sought-after talent.

The spatial Traversal ability that Li Xingkong mentioned is also extremely useful for clearing the battlefield and transferring loot.

As you can see in this desolate place, even immortals who do not have a grasp of spatial concepts can only obediently use their immortal bodies to move things.

The two of them working together can indeed be as effective as a professional team.

The logistics officer considered the matter briefly before assigning the task to Liu Shinian.

He wasn't afraid that the two would boast about their abilities and fail to complete the mission when needed; military law would be in their place.

"Unfortunately, but congratulations to you both then."

The four members of the team didn't do anything to argue, given their limited resources. Besides, having a falling out with their fellow Daoists in Flying Cloud Pass would inevitably be noticed by the soldiers in the pass.

If a dispute over a mission has created a rift between them, how can they be trusted to entrust important missions in Guanzhong?

Besides, there are many things to do here, and this isn't the only cleaning task available, so there's no need for it.

"Fellow Daoist is joking. The two of us don't have much ability in direct combat, so we can only choose trivial tasks. With your configuration, you would be an elite team on the front lines."

Liu Shinian gripped the mission token, turned around, and bowed slightly to the immortal.

Now that we've received the goods, there's no need to put on airs and keep people at arm's length.

"This Flying Cloud Pass is different from the battlefields of the past. We've been too hesitant and wanted to observe the situation. Oh well, if we can't clean it up, we can at least take on the hard work of transporting supplies."

"However, the concepts of you two fellow Daoists are truly useful. If we ever meet again in the future, we will certainly prepare some fine wine and have a drink together."

The old man riding the deer spoke kindly, as if the dispute over the task had never happened.

"No problem, no problem. We'll get to know each other properly once we get back to our base."

While Liu Shinian was entertaining the guests, he tugged at Li Xingkong's sleeve.

"We two will go and familiarize ourselves with the mission first. Please, everyone, make yourselves at home."

Before the others could react, the two hurriedly ran away.

"These old guys are shameless."

Following the instructions on the mission board, Liu Shinian headed towards the Logistics Division. After getting some distance from the group, he spat out a curse.

Li Xingkong touched his nose and didn't say anything.

These guys probably only wanted to get to know Liu Shinian after they had argued about how useful his concept was.

The purposefulness is a bit too strong.

"Hey, you're pretty savvy, you know what I'm trying to say."

She thought Li Xingkong seemed honest, but she didn't expect him to be so clever at crucial moments.

"Uh, actually..."

Li Xingkong explain.

"No need for further explanation, I understand. Once we arrive at our destination, we'll set up the anchor point and use its backtracking capability to pull off a few raids. After we've used the anchor point, we'll move on to other missions."

Is it possible that I could actually Traversal space?

Li Xingkong wasn't the type to speak without making things clear. He activated his Traversal concept and flashed in front of Liu Shinian.

Liu Shinian, who was flying, stopped abruptly. She stared intently at Li Xingkong in front of her, as if looking at some strange object.

"You're not Human Immortal?"

"Yes."

"Then how can you grasp spatial concepts?"

"Because..."

Li Xingkong suddenly realized that this reason was indeed difficult to explain.

This thing is still the product of his own research, so it's really hard to say what will happen.

"Hiss, that's strange. You weren't lying, were you? You're really not Dao Immortal?"

Liu Shinian looked utterly shocked.

"No, you're a Human Immortal, how could you..."

She couldn't understand.

It's no wonder she was so surprised. Most of the Human Immortal are basically just cannon fodder in the immortal version. A large portion of the soldiers at Flying Cloud Pass are Human Immortal.

Li Xingkong's abilities were like the product of some cutting-edge laboratory appearing before the general public.

It's truly unbelievable.

"Forget it, forget it, don't explain, I don't want to know. I'll just treat you Dao Immortal."

Considering Li Xingkong's scholarly background, Liu Shinian concluded that this guy must be researching something extraordinary.

As everyone knows, these kinds of things usually involve a lot of people, and she didn't want to get involved in this mess.

"It's just some research result. My trip to Era of Chaos is also related to this matter."

"Broken."

Liu Shinian clapped his hands.

"What's going on?"

Li Xingkong was confused; he had already revealed his strength, so what was the problem?

"If I'd known you had this ability, we wouldn't have gone to that blind guy to apply the anchor point buff."

Upon hearing Liu Shinian's words, Li Xingkong couldn't help but chuckle.

Is it really that serious?

"What do you know? Human relationships are the most troublesome thing."

Chatting casually along the way, the two crossed the barrier at the checkpoint and arrived in the small world belonging to the Logistics Division.

The cleaning task may seem simple, but it requires unified command from the military, and pre-job training is essential.

The Logistics Division only sent a few Human Immortal to help the two identify the location of the logistics warehouse, gave them a book on classifying spoils of war, and then let them rest for the time being.

The war was protracted and its impact was vast. After a brief understanding of the situation, the two were assigned their first mission.

Head to the Blade Flower Sea to clean up the battlefield.

This Blade Flower Sea is not too far from Flying Cloud Pass. It got its name because of a great battle between two immortals, which greatly changed the landscape of the entire area. Various man-made swords and flowers are mixed together, forming a unique sea of flowers.

Because it was created through conceptual impact, the entire sea of flowers cannot be physically erased, making it a unique spectacle outside Flying Cloud Pass.

It's better to arrive at the right time than to arrive early, because the great battle between the two immortals had finally come to an end, and thus Li Xingkong and his companion were given their mission.

"Hey, I didn't expect a mission so soon. Let's go, time to get out of the pass."

"I am ready."

I wonder what the scene is like outside Flying Cloud Pass.

The two reported to the Logistics Division and received a pass to leave the border. They then made their way out of the logistics department's small world and arrived at the gate of the border.

The further Li Xingkong went beyond the pass, the more he could feel the profound concepts emanating from this pass.

Just considering the defensive aspect, there are more than ten layers on top of this city wall.

Even Li Xingkong couldn't figure out how to cross this pass and break into the interior.
