Summoners: One Golden Term per Level

Jiu Li Battle Line.

Shen Fei listened to the message conveyed by Stabbing Immortal, raising an eyebrow slightly, ”Profound Lady Race? Interesting.”

It seems that Youxiong Tribe still has quite a few aces up their sleeve; these people of the Profound Lady Race or, should I say, cultivators resemble the profession type of support.

Moreover, quite formidable, just like the Exotic Beast army of Jiu Li at that time, it was also one of the trump cards of Youxiong unifying the northern tribes.

Heard to have some connection with a certain grand Dao lineage, or rather, akin to supplementary personnel.

Also seems to be related to the legendary Celestial Court.

”Is there a connection between the Celestial Court and Divine Dynasty, or is the Celestial Court itself the Divine Dynasty...”

To Shen Fei, the Ancient Secret Realm is not merely to complete the rank-up mission, given his previous arrangements.

Completing the final task for the camp seems not very challenging, even if the existence behind adjusts the difficulty.

After all, the Ancient Secret Realm is meant for talent selection, and it wouldn’t raise the difficulty unnecessarily just to prevent him from passing.

It will only make it more difficult.

Shen Fei is more inclined to use this Ancient Secret Realm to explore the so-called first epoch’s Ancestral Court.

The second epoch’s Divine Dynasty, these are likely connected to the Ancient Secret Realm.

He may even discover what the Abyss, Void, and similar entities truly are.

This is why he did not hastily destroy Youxiong during Ying Dragon and Drought Fiend’s ascension to True Immortal.

Instead, he wanted to continuously extract information from the Ancient Secret Realm, even if he completed the professional rank-up to obtain the ’Battle of Zhulu’ within the Ancient Secret Realm.

Its internal information might not be provided to him, perhaps only akin to post-conquest of the Abyss.

Or similar to a special world like the ’Nine Realms,’ perhaps even excluding figures like Shennong.

As to what may be unique, that remains to be seen upon acquiring it.

In face of Xuanyuan’s moves, Shen Fei naturally summoned Duan Xiu and others to discuss the matter.

”Profound Lady Race..., I’ve heard too. Indeed, has some relations with the Dao lineage that existed before Celestial Emperor Fu Xi, though it’s just a slight connection.”

Shennong spoke, ”They are adept at amplifying their side through various means.

Indeed, it poses trouble for us. But it’s nothing to be overly concerned about.”

”They excel in War Dance and War Music Formation, unless the clan leader of the Profound Lady Race, Nine Heavens Profound Lady herself, performs the ’Immortal Dance’.

Otherwise, it’s difficult to reverse the battle situation.” Shennong also had some understanding of the Profound Lady Race, as they are a force within the Human Race.

Even those with links to the Dao lineage, transcendent of the Human Race’s territory.

When necessary, Shennong could still make them appear, even when he succeeded as the Common Lord.

The Profound Lady Race even appeared to celebrate with dance.

”Yet we have to remain vigilant, but since Youxiong has already revealed a new trump card, it’s our turn.

Just as Leader Chi You perfected the battle array now.”

”When we clash again, we can witness its power.” Shen Fei chuckled, and in his prior arrangements, Duan Xiu mainly helped him iterate the weapons of Jiu Li.

While Celestial Dao Demon Venerable only assisted because he had other tasks to attend to.

Using witchcraft as the root, studying the battle array.

From the moment Shen Fei entered this Ancient Secret Realm, he regarded Youxiong as a potential enemy.

Reflecting on historical evolution, back during Zhulu’s decisive victory.

Partly due to Nine Heavens Profound Lady granting Youxiong superior military strategies and the comprehensive strength of Chi You’s battle array, they began to be outmatched by the Yan and Huang Alliance.

Array techniques, ultimately, are tools leveraging Heavenly Time, geographical advantage, and human unity, allowing those constructing the array to triumph over stronger foes, using the lesser to defeat the greater.

Since Youxiong mastered it, it’s unreasonable for Jiu Li not to.

It’s unfortunate that Jasper Pool is absent, needing to remain hidden to gather intelligence from the Profound Lady Race.

Nevertheless, still able to learn some array techniques recorded within the Profound Lady Race by virtue of its own identity.

Then let Celestial Dao Demon Venerable know, to perform a demon modification.

It’s quite effective now.

”Good!”

Shennong suddenly spoke, ”If we capture the people of the Profound Lady Race, try to spare their lives.

Behind this tribe, there are many associations.”

”Naturally.”

The group once again deliberated on the actions ahead, as they advanced deeper into Youxiong’s territory, whether attacks or logistical pressures were intensifying.

Moreover, the Youxiong Tribe acted decisively, leaving nothing for Jiu Li to replenish along the way.

If not for Jiu Li having researched warships early on, using the Water Dao to transport logistics to penetrate deeply into Youxiong’s territory, prolonged combat would have been challenging to maintain.

Of course.

The current approach breaks without assault, Youxiong intending to buy time through regions, while during this time Jiu Li’s construction has become specialized.

This was one of the reforms Shen Fei initiated for Jiu Li upon becoming High Priest.

Allowing the witch cultivators of witchcraft to specialize into specific jobs based on suitability.

Modular, streamlined.

Even witch cultivators aren’t held in high regard, preferring greater capability though.

During tribal construction, one must invest more effort, even if opposed.

Even Priest Duan serves the tribe, are you mightier than Priest Duan, or is your position above Priest Duan?

And the accumulated experiences burst forth during this campaign.

Building while fighting, lasting through the journey, cities nearly established with complete facilities.

And still constructing defensive lines, gradually encroaching on the boundary between Jiu Li and Youxiong.

Not simply advancing for attack purposes.

This resulted in Jiu Li’s advancing forces being incessantly replenished with vibrant strength.

In this grand push by Jiu Li, it finally faced a massive mountain range.

The mountain chain housed successive fortresses, far exceeding those hastily built by Li Mu.

These appeared to be checkpoints with long-term occupation.

Currently heavily guarded, numerous cultivators in the sky formed many arrays through arcane positions.

Each array was interconnected, forming a grand array in the air once more.

Also, bits of Celestial Sound reverberated in the air, far more formidable than the hasty defenses before.

Finally attaining a weather to contend with Jiu Li.

”Zhenyi Pass, Youxiong truly considered us barbarians.”

Shen Fei looked afar, seeing the plaque atop the city in the center of the fortress written in Great Wilderness characters.

’Zhenyi City’.

This didn’t evoke thoughts from Shen Fei and others, only bemusement.

”This array... if unleashed, could rival the Human Immortal, truly something Youxiong conjured.”

Duan Xiu observed the formation in the skies, his tone carrying a hint of surprise.

Though easily broken by him, the gap between Human Immortal levels is exceptionally large.

”The key lies in law, yet this array calls upon law without any Human Immortal presiding...”

”Calling upon the immortal through the human.”
