Chapter 1062: Chapter 1021: Assault from Thousands of Miles Away

Now, the human race had only five remaining cities, which were surrounded by each other, with four on the outside and Han Yun City at the very center.

Jiguang City was vast, but it was impossible to encompass all the roads leading to Han Yun City.

If the Ice Race and the Evil Clans chose to bypass Jiguang City and strike directly at Han Yun City and the other three cities, they could certainly do so.

However, under normal circumstances, the Ice Race and the Evil Clans would not choose this option.

Because not uprooting Jiguang City and instead choosing to push directly forward would most likely result in being sandwiched between Han Yun City and Jiguang City from the front and back.

But there is always a “what if,” and if the Ice Race and Evil Clans played their cards unpredictably, or opted for a small force to penetrate the human race’s rear, and the humans did not notice, it would appear extremely passive.

Thus, at the locations between Jiguang City and Han Yun City that were not protected by city walls, Jiguang City needed to station personnel to keep watch and immediately report any incidents back to Jiguang City.

Moya Mountain was one such location.

Moya Mountain was two thousand li away from Jiguang City, a distance which was insignificant for someone in the Rule Integration Realm.

Considering that Chen Fei had just broken through to the Rule Integration Realm not long ago and his realm might still be stabilizing, such a position was chosen for Chen Fei.

Should anything happen, Chen Fei could choose to leave Moya Mountain and report back to Jiguang City.

Every individual of the human race in the Rule Integration Realm needed to bear their own responsibilities.

By arranging it this way, Jiguang City was already giving preferential treatment to Chen Fei, and the rewards for the task of guarding Moya Mountain were no less than for other guarding tasks.

On the third day after leaving Jiguang City, Chen Fei came to Moya Mountain alone.

Jiguang City had asked whether to send some warriors from the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm to assist Chen Fei, but Chen Fei ultimately shook his head and declined.

Scouts and the like are indeed better suited for the Sun Moon Realm, as it’s not feasible for those in the Rule Integration Realm to handle everything personally.

However, unlike other Rule Integration Realm cultivators, Chen Fei had the ability to “create soldiers from beans,” equivalent to having one hundred and eight warriors from the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm with him, who were not afraid of betrayal and could be sacrificed at any time.

Otherwise, in an extreme situation, Chen Fei would have to consider protecting those from the Sun Moon Realm, potentially putting himself in danger.

Chen Fei found a cavern to sit cross-legged in, and in an instant, one hundred and eight warriors appeared.

As the “Indestructible Vision” and “God-slaying Sword” divine powers operated, the aura of the warriors continuously climbed.

With the improvement of Chen Fei’s cultivation, the cultivation level of the warriors had also slightly increased, but since they had already reached the pinnacle of the Sun Moon Realm, further improvement was limited.

To bring the warriors to an early stage of the Rule Integration Realm with the current structure of the “create soldiers from beans” divine power was impossible; it required a reoptimization of the divine powers.

With Chen Fei’s current foundation, he was not capable of doing this.

Unless Chen Fei acquired the other fifty-two Emperor inheritances from the human race, there might be some hope after adopting the best aspects of all of them.

Or it could be Chen Fei’s own talents, truly astounding enough that through constant refinement, he could optimize “create soldiers from beans.”

In a way, allowing the warriors to use “Indestructible Vision” and “God-slaying Sword” was already a significant optimization.

By integrating nine warriors into his body as a unit to form fragments of rules, he was really getting creative with the “create soldiers from beans” concept.

However, these were at most application optimizations; elevating the foundational realm of the warriors to the Rule Integration Realm would be a true transformation.

The one hundred and eight warriors dispersed in all directions, and at the first sign of any unusual situation, they would report back to Chen Fei through a soul connection.

Meanwhile, Chen Fei himself continued to cultivate martial arts techniques and skill levels within the cavern.

Without the bonus of Jiguang City’s cultivation room, Chen Fei’s speed of improving skill levels might be slightly slower, but the impact was not significant.

In martial arts cultivation, to achieve advancement, one ultimately needed to rely on persistent perseverance to reap any rewards.

Compared to others, Chen Fei’s situation, where effort invariably led to rewards, was already the most fortunate.

After resting for several days, ten thousand li away from Jiguang City, the Ice Race and Evil Clans’ armies resumed their advance.

This kind of racial war generally lasted a very long time unless other significant external forces intervened; even a duration of more than a decade would be considered short.

Twenty days later, Jiguang City’s army and the armies of the Ice Race and Evil Clans clashed for the first time.

Chen Fei stood in mid-air, gazing into the distance thousands of li away.

At this distance, which was beyond the observational range that early stages of the Rule Integration Realm could handle, Chen Fei naturally could not see anything.

At most, through the fluctuations of the vital energy of heaven and earth, he could vaguely sense the overall direction and eventual outcomes of this battle.

Such a clash would not decide any victories or defeats, but the numbers of warriors from the Sun Moon Realm and Mountain Sea Realm who would perish would be significantly large.

The Ice Race and Evil Clans must have been scheming for something within the human race; otherwise, they would not have initially launched a surprise attack on Sky Sea City, which resulted in Dao Yuefeng luring them into a trap and slaying three Emperors.

Initially, the Evil Clans believed they held the winning ticket, especially since their Open Heaven Realm ancestor, though not fully recovered from old injuries, was more than enough to deal with those in the Rule Integration Realm.

The outcome was that the human side schemed and directly inflicted severe injuries on the Evil Clans’ ancestor.

This incident completely ignited the grudge between the human race and the Evil Clans and the Ice Race, making the war between them now inevitable, just waiting to see which side would fail to endure first.

In their hearts, the Evil Clans and the Ice Race still had strong confidence, supported by their ancestor from the Open Heaven Realm, even though he was sneak attacked by the human race’s Qiankun Cauldron, aggravating his old injury with a new one.
