The one-armed male cultivator felt a little overwhelmed when he thought of the black flames majestically turning his flying sword into molten iron.
He admitted that his way of snatching military honors was a bit unkind, but on the battlefield, it is normal for you to fight for military glory.
It's just that the other party destroyed his flying sword, which was a bit too much.
He suppressed his worries and saluted Xu Chunniang with cupped fists.
"Fairy, I just heard from Brother Lan He that your surname is Xu, right? I dare to ask Fairy Xu, what is that black flame of yours just now?"
The question of the one-armed male cultivator immediately aroused the curiosity of several others.
They also wanted to know what was so weird about that black flame that it could actually burn a strong person in the Void Refining Stage alive.
Xu Chunniang smiled slightly and asked instead without answering.
"I sensed that two more black dots on the military order disappeared, leaving only the last two. Are you sure you want to continue chatting?"
Lan He coughed dryly, "I just received a message from the team leader. The orcs are coming fiercely. He asked us to retreat first and return to the base area in the upper reaches of the Gray River."
Blue River had received this message as early as when the female half-orc escaped.
It's just that he was very interested in the orc corpses in the Void Refining Stage and the black flames controlled by Xu Chunniang, so he delayed it until this point.
There were no words on the way back, and the group of five people successfully returned to the Black Tiger Army base in the upper reaches of the Gray River.
"It is relatively safe here, but occasionally you will encounter attacks by orcs, and the orcs you kill can also be exchanged for military merit here.
Military merit has many uses. In addition to shortening the service time, it can also be exchanged for spiritual crystals and spiritual items. However, correspondingly, the higher the level of the spiritual item you want to exchange, the more military merit is required."
Lan He briefly introduced the distribution of the base areas and the use of military industry to Xu Chunniang and the others, and then led them to the headquarters of the Sixth Group.
"This is the territory of our six groups. Some monks in other groups have bad tempers. For no special reason, you'd better not step into the territory of other groups."
Lan He warned with a serious expression, "If you get into trouble because of this, you will be responsible for the consequences."
Xu Chunniang glanced at it and found that the territory occupied by the Sixth Group of the Black Tiger Army was only ten miles in radius.
In the center, there is a tall black tent, which should be the team leader's residence.
The black tent was surrounded by nine smaller gray tents, which seemed to be their residence in the Black Tiger Army.
Sure enough, as she expected, the next moment she saw Blue River pointing at several empty tents.
"None of these tents are inhabited, you can just pick any one you like."
Guo Xuelian looked towards the empty tent pointed by Lan He and chose the tent at the back without thinking.
"Since they are all uninhabited, I will choose this place."
Brother Lan He just said that although the base area is relatively safe, it will be attacked by orcs from time to time. It is undoubtedly safer to choose a position at the back.
Tang Yue glanced at the remaining tents, but said nothing, as if he planned to let Xu Chunniang choose first.
Xu Chunniang glanced at it and pointed at a random place, "This is it."
Seeing that she had made a good choice, Tang Yue chose the tent closest to her.
Seeing that the three of them had chosen tents, Lan He nodded slightly and explained.
"Okay, there should be nothing going on in the next one or two days. You can take a short rest and wait until the team leader comes back to talk about everything.
Remember, you are not allowed to leave the base area without permission, otherwise you will face extremely severe punishment."
Hearing that even the base area was not allowed to leave easily, Xu Chunniang frowned secretly, realizing once again how insignificant the god-transforming monks were in front of the real power.
Chess pieces are not qualified to control their own destiny. Only by jumping out of the chessboard can they take the initiative.
Seeing that Lan He had finished explaining what he had to explain, the one-armed male cultivator who followed him finally couldn't help but speak.
"Fairy Xu, now you can tell me, what kind of magical power is the black flame you used just now? And the giant ax of the bull-headed orc, how come there is such a big gap in it even though it is so good?"
"Hmph, that's your uncle Feng's burning black flame. What, you kid also wants to taste my black flame. Can't I be buried with your flying sword that turned into molten iron?"
Xu Chunniang quickly pressed down the soul-suppressing pot that was eager to try, and looked at the one-armed male cultivator.
"When you were dodging the giant axe, did you use an umbrella-shaped magic weapon?"
The one-armed male cultivator nodded hesitantly, "Yes."
"I'm somewhat interested in your umbrella-shaped treasure. Why don't you take it out and let me take a look."
The one-armed male cultivator's face looked a little ugly, "Xianzi Xu, that is my life-saving thing, how can I take it out and let you look at it as you like?"
"So that's it. To be honest, that black flame is also my life-saving thing. It's not enough to tell outsiders."
Xu Chunniang's tone was understated, and she kicked the question back with all her strength, treating the other person in the same way.
The one-armed male cultivator's face turned green and white, and he wanted to get angry, but he was afraid of her strength and dared not speak out.
When Lan He saw this, he knew that Xu Chunniang had no intention of explaining the black flame.
Come to think of it, who would be stupid enough to take the initiative to reveal his own methods to others?
He coughed lightly and said at the right time, "Nothing's wrong, I'll go back to the tent to rest. Remember what I said and don't wander around."
After Lan He left, Tang Yue was worried about his injuries and left in a hurry.
Seeing this, the one-armed male cultivator had no choice but to find an excuse and left in despair.
The only ones left behind were Xu Chunniang and Guo Xuelian.
Guo Xuelian was not in a hurry to return to the tent. She looked at Xu Chunniang with an expression of admiration.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, you are too powerful. Even the bull-headed orcs in the Void Refining Stage are no match for you. Are you really a monk who ascended from the lower world?"
Xu Chunniang couldn't explain how she felt in her heart. From Guo Xuelian's tone, it seemed that monks who ascended from the lower world should be inferior to others.
She said calmly, "Being able to kill the bull-headed orc was just a fluke. I was also surprised."
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Xu is too humble. With your strength, in a month or two at most, you can earn enough military merit to break away from the Black Tiger Army."
With only twelve points of military merit, a monk in the transformation stage can be exempted from military service for one year.
Xu Chunniang has only eighteen years of military service in the Black Tiger Army. After all, it is enough to earn 216 military merit points.
"I'd like to lend you some good words."
Seeing that Xu Chunniang still looked like she was not very talkative, Guo Xuelian secretly frowned and asked him directly the doubts in her heart without thinking about him.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, I'm very curious, did you really ascend from the Small Thousand World? The rules in the Small Thousand World are incomplete. Logically speaking, you shouldn't be able to practice to the late stage of becoming a god."
