Chapter 1637
Zi Chen was sorting out the materials while Shoumu squatted beside Zi Chen.
"What are you going to do next? Continue to improve your strength." Shoumu turned his head and asked.
"No, there's only half a year left. I'll take them to gain experience first, gather all the equipment, and then attack the city." Zi Chen was still burying his head in sorting out the things. From beginning to end, he didn't even look at Shoumu.
"Time is too short. I'm afraid many people will die." Shoumu said in a deep voice.
Zi Chen put down the things in his hand, raised his head and sighed. "Yes, many people will die, but war is like this."
Looking back at Shoumu, Zi Chen asked in confusion, "It's been so long, but your realm hasn't recovered yet."
Shoumu smiled faintly and said, "I can only recover when I go back."
Hearing this, Zi Chen's heart skipped a beat. He said, "So, you've dropped two realms."
Shoumu nodded and said, "That's right. It was in the Qingtian Domain. At that time, I used a Devouring God Seal as a bet."
"And the result?" Zi Chen asked curiously.
Shoumu smiled bitterly.
Zi Chen saw the result from Shoumu's face and sighed. "You're bold. You lost once, but you still dare to bet."
The two of them chatted like this. Time passed quickly. As the cauldron trembled, the conversation ended.
"Give me all the refined weapons you have." Zi Chen turned around and said.
"You refined them so quickly." Shoumu looked at Zi Chen in surprise.
"Is it very fast?" Zi Chen was slightly proud.
"Incredible, really incredible. You can refine so many scorpion tails in such a short time. It seems that this small cauldron is a rare treasure. Where did you get such a treasure?" Shoumu looked at the cauldron in amazement and curiosity.
"The world I live in has been with me for more than a thousand years." Zi Chen said calmly.
"Your world? How is this possible? This should be something from this world." Shoumu exclaimed and lost his composure.
If the small cauldron was a treasure of their world, he could accept it. After all, they were all products of the same rules, but if it was something from the Zhan Wu Continent, how could it be recognized by this world?
Zi Chen didn't explain, but continued to throw the refined weapons into the pill furnace, until the last one was thrown in.
Before long, he would be able to obtain a new batch of armor-piercing weapons.
"Find a way to contact Shuntian and have them return as soon as possible. I have new arrangements."
Shoumu nodded and left. He had been greatly provoked by the small cauldron.
Three days later, everyone had returned. A total of 6881 people had gathered in the spacious area. During this period of time, Miu Si and the others who had been training outside had also brought back close to two hundred human experts one after another.
His gaze swept across the crowd. Many people were looking at Zi Chen with curiosity and awe. More than half of them were seeing Zi Chen for the first time.
"Everyone, from now on, stop all operations and attack the Desert of Death with full force." Zi Chen's words spread throughout the battlefield.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a small disturbance in the crowd.
"We're going to clean up this desert." Man Shi asked, his eyes flashing with excitement.
"No, we're just training. The time limit is half a year."
Zi Chen said loudly, "Everyone has to kill the male scorpions, and you can kill some female scorpions while you're at it. However, the male scorpions must be the main force. The old rules apply. The male scorpions will be ten spirit crystals, and the female scorpions will be five spirit crystals for the time being. But before that, all of you at the early stage of the seventh rank must form a team. Every five people will form an attack group.
After giving out the instructions, Zi Chen waved his hand and said, "Next, let's start the exchange. As usual, everything will be half price. A new batch of armor-piercing weapons has been released. 05,555 spirit crystals each. If you don't have enough spirit crystals, you can buy on credit."
The early stage of the seventh rank was quickly divided into groups. Next, they all entered the Desert of Death in groups. During this period, Zi Chen divided a group of people to guard the periphery in case the aliens suddenly arrived here.
Zi Chen followed the large group into the Desert of Death. The next refining process would be carried out in the desert.
According to the previous agreement, Old Man Schenker, who came this time, brought hundreds of refined weapons without any special effects.
After accepting these refined weapons, Zi Chen said, "Next time, bring all the armor and boots at once."
"Okay."
After a few simple words, Old Man Schenker looked at the results of everyone and left in satisfaction.
At the beginning of the battle, there was an endless supply of male scorpions for Zi Chen, so Zi Chen specially spent his free time refining armor-piercing weapons. As for the female scorpions' corpses, they were handed over to Shoumu. He extracted a kind of soul substance from the female scorpions, and after neutralizing it with several kinds of medicinal herbs, he was able to refine some simple elixirs. These elixirs could effectively defend against soul attacks.
The Desert of Death became a battlefield and a target for training. As time passed, the cooperation of the five people gradually became better.
Half a year was not enough for them to refine too many law crystals. Even if they did, it would not be of much use in the battle. Therefore, Zi Chen arranged for them to fight. Only in battle could they stimulate their potential.
Half a month later, the group advanced more than ten miles in the Desert of Death, killing countless twin scorpions.
Zi Chen also finished refining all the special effects weapons in this half a month. Now, he could guarantee that each of the 6,855 people had an armor-piercing weapon in their hands.
In addition, Zi Chen still had dozens of weapons on him.
Therefore, the mission to hunt down the twin scorpions came to an end. Zi Chen ordered the group to start going deeper into the desert to another area.
Two days later, the group arrived at the habitat of the giant lizards. This was the world of the giant lizards.
Before coming, Zi Chen transferred all the people in the periphery away. They would spend the next half a year in the depths of the desert.
Each of the giant lizards in this area was more than five meters tall. They were slow, but they had strong defenses and strong attacks.
What Zi Chen needed was the defensive special effects on the giant lizards.
The group, who were used to killing the twin scorpions, immediately suffered losses when they came into contact with the giant lizards. Fortunately, the continuous fighting made their cooperation more and more tacit, and they soon became familiar with this place.
In this desert, the night was as bright as day, so the group was always fighting.
Apart from the existences in the middle and late seventh stage, the group in the early seventh stage was divided into two hundred groups. On average, every one hundred groups had to fight in the desert for twelve hours every day.
During this time, the group's gains were all given to Zi Chen.
Zi Chen used the pill cauldron to refine battle armors with defensive special effects, and sold them to the group at half price.
The yellow sand below kept rolling, and one after another, giant lizards suddenly appeared and attacked the humans.
Zi Chen held the dragon spear in his hand, standing high in the air. His ice-cold eyes looked down below, constantly scanning the surroundings.
Suddenly, Zi Chen noticed that somewhere below, the yellow sand was rolling very violently, and a deep gully appeared after the rolling yellow sand.
A cold light flashed in his eyes, and golden energy surged around his body. His whole body was like a steady mountain, falling from the sky.
"Bang."
Zi Chen's body landed heavily on the yellow sand, causing a loud boom. The boundless yellow sand was swept up high like waves in the sea.
In the yellow sand, more than ten giant lizards were shaken out, but one of them was especially large, at least ten meters long. Its eyes fell on Zi Chen through the falling yellow sand, and its eyes were cold.
Zi Chen, whose body was surging with energy, immediately discovered that it was a giant lizard.
A hissing sound rang out, and a ripple visible to the naked eye appeared in the air. The giant lizard's long tail drew a line, like a long whip, and swept towards Zi Chen.
A sharp whistling sound came from the air, and it was obvious that this attack was full of power.
"Bang."
Zi Chen tapped his foot, and his body rose up, and a scratch grazed the bottom of Zi Chen's foot. After dodging this attack, the dragon spear in Zi Chen's hand flashed, and a dazzling silver light burst out from the spear, and he shot it towards the giant lizard.
Zi Chen's counterattack was on point, and his speed was very fast, piercing through the giant lizard's mouth in one strike.
This was the king of the giant lizards, and its combat strength was equivalent to a human's seventh layer. However, in this yellow sand, it could completely destroy a five-man human team.
After suffering several losses, the powerful existences in the team were specifically responsible for investigating the Giant Lizard King.
Below, when the crowd saw Zi Chen finish off the Giant Lizard King in one move, they immediately burst into cheers.
Soon, the Giant Lizard King's strength was swallowed and refined by the dragon spear. Zi Chen rose into the air again, and his cold gaze swept around.
At the same time, Shuntian and the rest were in charge of the same mission in other places.
Back then, after Shoumu taught them a set of cultivation techniques that could only be taught by themselves, their combat strength also increased crazily in a short half a year.
Now, each of the thirteen people could fight across realms.
They, who were in the middle seventh layer, had no problem fighting against an early eighth layer.
As the three women that Zi Chen trusted, their combat strength naturally increased by leaps and bounds. In this team of over a thousand people, their combat strength could definitely rank in the top twenty.
After Zi Chen attacked a few times a day, he returned to continue condensing the special effects armor. Speaking of which, everyone present knew that Zi Chen had a magical pill cauldron with extraordinary effects.
In the blink of an eye, two months had passed. In these two months, there was not a single giant lizard in sight within a radius of 75 miles.
And after killing many giant lizards, Zi Chen finally succeeded in condensing over a thousand sets of armor. Now, everyone was wearing a set.
The defense of these armors had already reached several tens of percent.
There were still three months left before the siege. Zi Chen led the team to the next place.
It was another area of living creatures, and all of them were sand snakes. They were known for their speed, and were even more difficult to deal with than the giant lizards.
That place was also Zi Chen's final battle. After Zi Chen condensed over a thousand pairs of combat boots with the special effects of speed, he would lead the team back and directly attack the lost human city.
The remaining time passed in the blink of an eye, and Zi Chen's goal was achieved.
As far as the eye could see, there were still over 6,755 people left in the team. Every one of them was surging with a murderous aura.
Their equipment was considered the best among those of the same level. Next was the siege.
"Return."
