Chapter 1206: Chapter 1206

Following this course, the Great Wall will eventually be unable to hold. Fresh chapters posted on ⓝovelFire.net

When that time comes, a single move could affect the entire situation.

However, the Nascent Souls on their side are no match for the Demon Path’s Nascent Souls in a direct confrontation, so they can only choose to defend passively for now.

The best outcome would be for the other battlefields on the border to win major victories, bringing more Tianshui cultivators to support them.

Thus, what they have to do is hold their ground.

The battlefield has once again reached an impasse, with a standoff lasting over two years.

With time passing unnoticed, it soon became the thirty-second year of Tian Wu.

After Chen Sansi finished his routine patrol of the Great Wall, he returned to the Central Army Tent to continue his cultivation.

[Cultivation Technique: Swallowing Fire Technique. Golden Core Middle Stage]

With the third-grade top-grade Spirit Veins in Wuzhangyuan, along with the pill recipe obtained from the Luoxiao Immortal Palace and his own Heavenly Spirit Root talent, Chen Sansi’s cultivation speed can be said to far exceed that of cultivators in the same realm.

Yet, even so, at this rate, it would take at least twenty years to reach the late stage of the Golden Core.

Accounting for Martial Arts as well, time would likely extend even further.

But this may not be a bad thing.

This great war cannot possibly end in a mere three to five years, and the longer it drags on, the more he can seize the opportunity to enhance his power.

The premise is that the Great Wall does not fall.

Thus, aside from cultivation, most of Chen Sansi’s time is spent delving into array formation techniques.

The "Sanqing Palace" in Sky Wall City, responsible for crafting formations, works tirelessly day and night to create various city defense arrays to place outside the Great Wall.

These formations, mostly second-tier, naturally cannot withstand the "Devouring Evil Dragon Formation," but they do help lessen the Great Wall’s strain to some extent.

Moreover, improving array formation techniques greatly benefits Chen Sansi, making it feasible to upgrade the Destructive Spirit Array into a Sealing Spirit Array, enhancing the spirit vein quality for the Eastern Continent in the future.

[Skill: Formation (Third-tier)]

[Progress: 1750/2000]

After personally setting up a third-tier City Protection Array, Chen Sansi handed it over to Dongfang Jingxing for deployment at the border, then left his tent to head to the Tianshui cultivators’ encampment in Sky Wall City.

In the past half-month, the frequency of demon cultivators’ assaults on the city slightly decreased, opting instead to use the "Devouring Evil Dragon Formation" to destroy the Great Wall’s restrictions.

However, the cultivators of Sky Wall City never rested; they either fulfilled their duties, cultivated, or gathered for drills.

Mortal soldiers need to practice the National Fortune Army Array, and cultivators must equally master various Immortal Path formations.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

Zhou Weizhen, in charge of drill command, saluted with a cupped fist and bowed head.

Behind him, thousands of Immortal Officials paused their activities, joining in saluting.

"Long live Your Majesty!"

The mountain call echoed through the heavens.

Ever since the last battle, when Chen Sansi plunged into the demon army alone to rescue several Nascent Souls in front of millions, these young cultivators held him in considerably greater awe than before.

"At ease, continue your drills."

Chen Sansi began personally directing the exercises.

At this moment, the cultivators were training in a sword array called the "Zhou Tian Star Demon Execution Great Formation," capable of mobilizing the power of star formations, and the more participants, the greater the array’s power.

Any formation requiring a large number of people to form and remain unbreaking and steady is an exceedingly difficult challenge.

But for Chen Sansi, it was precisely the opposite.

His previous {Commanding Soldiers} skill entry could be applied to the Tianshui cultivators of Sky Wall City as well.

Thus, when thousands deployed the "Zhou Tian Star Demon Execution Great Formation," it operated like a colossal machine in orderly cohesion.

Furthermore, Sky Wall City, unlike typical sects, functioned more like a "military unit," with Immortal Officials sharing meals and quarters, fostering inherently high levels of rapport.

The day after day of exercises finally led to a qualitative change today!

The cultivators seemingly understood their "comrades" nearby, channeling mana smoothly among each other, even achieving Yin Yang complementarity and Five Elements generativity.

In such a state, their sword edges not only bore the power of the star formation but also shimmered with a faint layer of golden light, causing the formation’s power to surge dramatically!

[Divine Skill: Controlling Immortals (Mastery)]

[Utility: Five Elements Rotation]

[Five Elements Rotation: Through day and night exercises, the Heavenly Soldiers and Generals attuned their minds, and during spellcasting, different spiritual powers complemented and counteracted each other, gathering a golden light of exorcism.]

Each cultivator had their own spirit root, often differing in attributes.

Yet, under the effect of {Five Elements Rotation}, it was possible to amplify each cultivator’s strengths and compensate for their weaknesses, eventually converging into an impeccable Five Elements Demon-Exorcising Golden Light!

After years of gradual honing, the Controlling Immortals divine skill finally advanced further.

"Report to Your Majesty."

A sharp voice rang in his ears.

Dongfang Jingxing appeared out of nowhere, whispering, "Visitors from the Demon Slaying Sect wish to have an audience."

"Demon Slaying Sect?"

Chen Sansi was slightly surprised; it had been years since he’d seen them: "Who has come?"

Dongfang Jingxing replied truthfully, "The leader is wearing a fox mask."

"Oh? Quickly, invite them to the Central Army Tent, but wait..."

Chen Sansi’s eyes darted, then he added, "Prepare a pot of wine, the best spiritual wine."

Dongfang Jingxing immediately complied.

Chen Sansi returned to the Central Army Tent to wait, and before long, two cultivators straightforwardly appeared before him.

One wore a fox mask, the other was stately and dignified.

They were unmistakably Dugu Ao and Shangguan Siheng.

Years had passed, Dugu Ao remained the same, while Shangguan Siheng had already achieved Core Formation.
