Previously on Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield...
After suffering a defeat, the Heavenly Court discusses replenishing their forces by extracting spiritual charm from mortals, which requires a significant increase in sacrifices. The Heavenly Emperor plans to ally with the Western Realm to conquer the Mortal Realm. Meanwhile, the Eastern Continent's Immortal Sects are ordered to triple their spiritual charm tribute, causing distress among sect leaders. In a minor world, Zhao Feng forms the Daqin Xuanjia Army, a hundred thousand elite soldiers, whom he empowers with Spiritual Charm Pills, preparing them to crusade the Immortal Realm. He also anticipates the eruption of the Immortal Miasma, a potent poison targeting Immortals and Buddhas.
By Zhao Feng's decree! "Open the thirteen sixth-tier Treasure Boxes." "Obtained the top-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasure [Nine-Grade Golden Lotus]." "Obtained the Innate low-grade Spiritual Treasure [Thunder Order]." "Obtained the Divine Skill [Five-Colored Divine Light]." "Obtained the Innate low-grade Spiritual Treasure [Palm Leaf Fan]." "Obtained an Innate top-grade Spirit Root [Enlightenment Tea]." "Obtained a [top-grade Spirit Vein]." "Obtained the top-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasure [Nine-grade White Lotus]." "Obtained the Postnatal Killing Treasure [Demon Sword]." "Obtained the Innate Level Divine Power [One Qi to Three Pure Ones]." "Obtained the top-grade Postnatal Spiritual Treasure [Nine-grade Red Lotus]." "Obtained the Acquired [Alchemist Inheritance]." "Obtained the Acquired [Artifact Refiner Inheritance]." "Obtained the Principle Seed [Reincarnation Seed]." Thirteen notifications followed in rapid succession. All thirteen Treasure Boxes had been opened. "Golden Lotus, White Lotus, Red Lotus, coupled with my original Black Lotus and Green Lotus, I have truly gathered them all this time." "Yet, I still haven't reached the Twelfth Grade, which is the path to the true Supreme Defensive Treasure." "Furthermore, the Enlightenment Tea will allow complete immersion in the comprehension of the Dao and understanding of the Laws, accelerating cultivation speed. This will undoubtedly aid my all-attribute enhancement with unwavering focus." "A top-grade Spirit Vein can be continuously integrated into the cultivation site within the Minor World." "The Postnatal Killing Treasure, the Demon Sword! Although Postnatal, its power as a Supreme Treasure is on par with Innate artifacts." "Inheritance of the Alchemist and Artifact Refiner. Now, genuine Immortal Pills and Immortal Artifacts can be refined. This inheritance can be documented and passed down, elevating the overall quality of Qin's alchemists and artifact refiners." "Five-Colored Divine Light, capable of suppressing myriad Magical Treasures with the power of the Five Elements. This is Kong Xuan's Innate Divine Ability; I never imagined obtaining it, yet it stands as another skill to crush opponents." "One Qi to Three Pure Ones." "This requires no further explanation. It is the supreme divine skill of Taiqing, the foremost among the Three Pure Ones, and cannot be compared to my previous Doppelganger Shadow technique." "Reincarnation Seed." "A Principle Seed, heralding a profound transformation for the Minor World." "Reincarnation, the fundamental core of any true world." "With Reincarnation, all souls within the Minor World will possess a cycle of rebirth. In the future, the power of Heavenly Dao will no longer need to be expended on soul differentiation, greatly propelling the world's advancement." Zhao Feng's eyes gleamed with joy. There was no doubt. This Reincarnation Seed held immense significance for both Zhao Feng and the Minor World. Without further deliberation, Zhao Feng's Divine Thought once again entered the Minor World. The Divine Thought reached the location of Jianmu. A pit was dug directly, and the Enlightenment Tea was planted within, watered by the Spiritual Spring. The Black Dragon, resting upon Jianmu, cast a casual glance before settling back down. Since taking up residence at Jianmu, being closest to the baptism of the World Law's power, the Black Dragon had shed its primal brutality and developed spiritual consciousness. "Reincarnation Seed." Zhao Feng summoned the recently acquired Principle Seed. He directly channeled the World Law and absorbed the Reincarnation Seed. Instantly! The entire world trembled subtly. "Previously, no Principle Seed introduced such a commotion in the Minor World. It seems this Reincarnation Seed is truly vital." "Reincarnation, indispensable for a true world." "Once the world fully integrates the Law of Reincarnation into its World Law, the world itself will possess Reincarnation." "Not only will the world be elevated, but in the future, the souls of the Elite Soldiers who perished for my Qin will also have a place of rest." Zhao Feng mused silently. He felt the World Power absorbing the Reincarnation Seed, a process slower than that of other Laws. "It appears more time is required." "It is best to utilize this period to enhance my strength, preparing to refine the Spiritual Charm Pill for the hundred thousand elite soldiers and then invade the Immortal Realm." ... Time marched on! A day in heaven equates to a year in the Mortal World. Following the loss of one hundred thousand Heavenly Soldiers and Generals in the Heavenly Court, and with Wang Lingguan returning news of the Slaying Immortal Sword Formation, the Heavenly Court will refrain from dispatching troops to the Lower Realm for the time being. Within the Minor World.
Within the sacred cultivation grounds of seclusion.
Breakthrough auras erupted almost every single moment.
Fifty years had elapsed.
Bolstered by two top-tier Spirit Veins and the accelerated time within the Tianxuan Mirror, every individual experienced significant advancements in their cultivation journey.
It was sufficient to ascend at least two Great Realms.
Furthermore, on this momentous occasion, Zhao Feng generously distributed the Spiritual Charm Pill, bestowing a substantial boost to these hundred thousand elite soldiers.
And so it came to pass.
The assembled contingent of one hundred thousand elite soldiers stood ready.
A manifestation of Zhao Feng's Divine Thought materialized in the ethereal expanse above.
"We pay our respects to Your Highness," they proclaimed in unison.
The entirety of the hundred thousand elite soldiers, accompanied by more than a hundred generals, bowed deeply towards Zhao Feng's Divine Thought suspended in the void.
At this precise juncture.
Their collective momentum blazed like a vibrant rainbow.
Their formidable power reverberated, shaking the very heavens.
Compared to their state fifty years prior, their martial prowess had undergone a monumental leap.
"You may rise," Zhao Feng commanded.
"We thank you, Your Highness," responded the assembled ranks.
Zhao Feng's gaze traversed the assembled soldiers, a subtle yet palpable sense of satisfaction gracing his countenance.
"Not bad at all."
"After fifty years of dedicated cultivation, not a single soul's foundation rests below the Martial Arts Realm of the Divine; every one of you has surpassed the Third Level of the Martial Arts Divine Realm."
"Indeed, a thousand among you have even ascended to the Martial Arts Great Power Realm."
"My soldiers have truly lived up to my expectations," Zhao Feng declared with a hearty, resonant laugh.
"All of this is thanks to Your Highness's benevolent grace," the soldiers echoed, their voices filled with fervent emotion.
"We pledge our lives and unwavering loyalty to Your Highness," the elite soldiers avowed in unison, their hearts swelling with exhilaration.
"You have now earned the esteemed qualification to join my Qin's Mystic Armor Army, and subsequently, you shall accompany me on the grand expedition into the Immortal Realm," Zhao Feng announced with a smile.
Then, with a mere wave of his mental intent.
As if conjured from thin air.
The void unveiled a hundred thousand sets of pristine black Battle Armor. More than mere armor, these were complete sets, including Battle Helmets redesigned with a fearsome tiger motif, a stark departure from the customary styles of the Heavenly Court.
Once donned, the armor encased the wearer entirely, leaving only two openings for the eyes, thus ensuring comprehensive protection.
