ow swept past their heads.The next moment, a pure white tiger appeared in sight. On the tiger's back was a young man in black...White Tiger, young man...In an instant, the seven cultivators present al..."Joining the Bingzhou Guard, depending on your military rank, you receive a different level of monthly salary. This salary isn't in elixirs or spirit stones, but... war merits!" Shui Yuan spoke slowly.

Li Yemu raised an eyebrow!

And the pay is still in monthly salary form. In other words, once you join the Bingzhou Guard, you get paid every month for your military achievements. Just this point alone makes it that among the nine states, countless cultivators would want to join the Bingzhou Guard.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

With this as an incentive, the Bingzhou Guard did not need to draw personnel from major sects at all. Cultivators of various sizes and sects throughout Jiuzhou would actively choose to join the Bingzhou Guard once they reached a certain level of cultivation.

>>> Only the Bi Xue Sect's situation is a bit special. Lu Ye had never known about the Bingzhou Guard before, so he had never considered it.

"Monthly pay is only the base. If you carry out missions for the Bingzhou Guard, or kill enemies in battle, you can earn military merit."

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"That's great!"

"So, besides the cultivators above the Yunhe realm in Bingzhou Wei, there are also many in the Lingxi realm. Some disciples from sects would plan ahead and join Bingzhou Wei even when they were in the Lingxi realm. This way, they could earn military merit and prepare for the future."

Of course, the cultivators from Lingxi Realm aren't very powerful and have weak self-preservation abilities. Even if they joined the Bingzhou Guard, they wouldn't be assigned too dangerous missions. Most of them would stay in one place, cooperating with higher-level cultivators to defend against enemies. Moreover, they wouldn't stay there for long. After acquiring some military merits, they would return to the Lingxi battlefield for cultivation.

This is relatively more dangerous compared to the Lingxi battlefield, but the military merit gained here surpasses anything achievable at Lingxi.

The more Lu Ye heard Shui Yuan speak about the various things happening in Bingzhou Guard, the more excited he became. Originally, he had no aversion to joining Bingzhou Guard, and now he was actually looking forward to it.

He also knew that once he truly joined the Bingzhou Guard, his days would no longer be as carefree and relaxed as they were on the Yunhe battlefield.

No matter whether it was the Lingxi Battlefield or the Yunhe Battlefield, all the enemies he had encountered before were cultivators of the same realm. But after entering the Bingzhou Guard, the enemies he faced were no longer limited to those of the same realm. True Lake Realm and Divine Sea Realm cultivators were also active on the front lines of the confrontation between the two camps.

"Do you have confidence, little brother, in being promoted to Zhenhu within three days" Shui Yuan asked.

Lu Ye shook his head. "I just advanced to the Ninth Layer Realm. It's still a ways off before I can advance to the True Lake Realm."

While the golden spirit tokens on hand are enough, time is tight. Three days certainly won't be enough.

"That's a pity." Shui Yuan spoke.

If Ru Lu Ye could be promoted to Zhenhu and then enter Bingzhou Wei, his self-defense ability would also be greatly enhanced. Moreover, every person who enters Bingzhou Wei has their own position. The higher the cultivation level, the higher the starting position they can hold, and the more monthly salary they naturally receive.

The treatment you receive in the Yunhe Nine Layers Realm and Zhenhu Realm is completely different.

Luckily, Lü Ye was not far from Zhenhu Realm.

"Second Senior Sister, I want to know that after I advance to the True Lake Realm, how should I cultivate The spiritual energy of the Kyushu mainland is not abundant, and it's even inferior to the Lingxi Battlefield. If I keep absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in this way, wouldn't my cultivation efficiency be too low"

He himself wasn't primarily focused on absorbing heaven and earth spiritual energy as his main cultivation method, but if there was enough rich and concentrated heaven and earth spiritual energy, it could also improve the efficiency of his cultivation.

Of course, I should first make sure that Huacai and Jujia are both present so they can hear it too.

"Cultivation above the True Lake Realm is extremely taxing..." Shuixuan spoke slowly.

The three of them, Lu Ye and his companions, listened intently and finally understood how cultivators above the Zhenhu Realm practiced.

He was speechless. Before, he only knew one thing: cultivators above the True Lake Realm consumed a lot of resources during their cultivation. However, he wasn't quite clear on how they consumed them.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

It wasn't until this moment that it dawned on me!

That's why Shui Yuan had always stayed in the Zhenhu Realm, even though she was gifted. It would have been difficult for her to advance until Lu Ye brought back a large amount of resources for the Bixue Sect. Only then did Shui Yuan make a breakthrough to the Shenhai realm.

Not until two hours later did Lu Ye walk out of the Heavenly Mechanism Hall, his figure flashing toward Cui Zhu Feng.

He entered his own bamboo hut, sat cross-legged, and both Amber and Yiy were gone. The former was by the giant's side, while the latter was with Huac.

Lu Ye held a detailed map in his hand, examining the location of Haoxian City.

This treasure map is something he just bought from the Heavenly Machine Treasure Vault. It’s a complete map of the entire Nine States, quite expensive, but worth every coin. Traveling throughout the Nine States in the future, this thing will be indispensable.

From the map, the entire Kyushu is divided into nine major plates, which are exactly the nine states of land in Kyushu.

Among Qingzhou, Wuizhou, and Cangzhou, the three places are colored blue, as Shui Yuan said, these three states are controlled by the Haotian Alliance.

Yúnzhou, Léizhou, and Yōuzhou are red.

While Tianzhou, Bingzhou, and Dingzhou were decorated in alternating red and blue, foreshadowing the clash between the two major camps.

Lu Ye glanced over it roughly, taking into account Shui Yuan's previous words, gaining a slight understanding of the overall situation in Kyushu.

Looking again at the map of Bingzhou, where red and blue colors intersect, there are twelve passes standing across like majestic mountains, forming the most advanced defense line of the Bingzhou Haoteng Alliance.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This is the twelve passes of Bingzhou, each pass is guarded by a massive number of cultivators.

After these twelve levels, there stands a magnificent city, the very Tianhao City.

This city is the hub of the Bingzhou Weishi, where all orders and military decisions are made. The previous Zhao Che came from the Haotian City Transmission Division.

Inside Haotiang City, there's also a council of elders led by Zhengqi Men's Pang Zhen. All the members are powerful cultivators at the Divine Sea Realm from major sects in Bingzhou.

The Grandmaster Tang Yifeng is actually a member of the Elder Council. Logically, he would be eligible to reside in Haoxian City and become one of the decision-makers. However, the Grandmaster has never interfered with these matters.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Due to the war decades ago, the reputation of the Bixue Sect plummeted. Many powerful figures from other sects harbored grudges against them. Under such circumstances, how could the sect leader go around courting animosity

If it weren't for Lu Ye's sudden appearance and the hope he brought to the sect's revival, the headmaster wouldn't have changed his usual low-key demeanor.

Now things are different. The esteemed image has been completely shattered, and when people in Bingzhou hear the name Tang, their faces change color.

All Lu Ye has to do now is rush to Haotiang City within three days to report, join the Bingzhou Guard there, confirm his position, and then see where Haotiang City sends him.

But it seemed like someone was watching him from the Haotian City side. After the incident at the Yunhe Battlefield, the order came down very quickly. It's clear how efficient they are.

Lu Ye understood that upon arriving at Bingzhouwei, the task assigned to him wouldn't be a pleasant one.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

It's pointless to dwell on things that can't be changed. It's more important to focus on improving one's cultivation. Time is short, but it should still be enough for him to use a golden spirit talisman.

Lü Yè crushed a golden spiritual token and sat down to meditate, calling back Yiyi and Huóbǎ.

After a day and night, the efficacy of the spirit talisman had worn off. Lu Ye rose to his feet and pushed open the door.

"Let's go!" he whispered, his figure soaring into the sky.

There is no need to say goodbye to anyone, as there will always be a day to meet again. It's perfectly normal for monks to come and go.

Shouge Feng stood atop the peak, Shui Yuan opened his eyes and gazed at the direction where Lu Ye had disappeared. He slowly got up.

On the summit of Mingxin Peak, two figures stood tall, none other than the Headmaster and Madam Yun.

"Have they found out who it is" Yun Fu's voice was icy cold.

The moment the order was given, Lu Ye could feel that he was being watched by someone. Yun Fu-ren certainly sensed it too.gxi battlefield, are countless. Compared to true sects, they are naturally incomparable.Lu Ye had participated in the declaration of war between Xuanmen and Jiuxingzong. Although both sects were only...
