Chapter 406 Dinghai Shenzhen
"The last blood disaster happened seventy years ago. I also participated in it. But compared to the last time, this time was much easier, and the losses were far less than the last time."
"Prince Lu's attainments in the art of formation are too great. I feel that if Prince Lu hadn't intentionally let us off, we wouldn't even be able to get a bite of soup and would all be killed by Prince Lu."
"Prince Lu is a combat expert ranked nearly 100th on the Blood Demon Ranking, second only to the Earth Lords. These blood beasts are nothing but chickens and dogs in front of him. Moreover, he has the assistance of the formation, so there will be no problem at all."
"Haven't you heard that a few days ago, Prince Lu used the Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Mysterious Array Group to defeat the Nine Yin Elephant's Inner Elephant Elder Cao Mei, whose strength had reached the level of a mid-level Earth Venerable, but was still beaten and fled by Prince Lu."
……
A good formation master can indeed play a huge role in war, especially an almost omnipotent formation master like Lu Changjing, who can play a decisive role.
Under his control, the entire Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Mysterious Array was as easy to control as his own arms. The wind blades seemed to have eyes and pounced towards the surrounding blood beasts.
Both in power and operational ability, he far surpassed Zhou Zhi.
Possessing twenty-one times the mysterious soul power of a warrior of the same level, Lu Changjing's computing ability has reached a terrifying level, in no way inferior to the super brain of his previous life.
The entire Mysterious Soul Sea is like a supercomputer. One by one, the Mysterious Souls merge into the Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Mysterious Array group according to different trajectories and are controlled in an orderly manner.
He can effectively perform different operations based on the number, strength, size, etc. of the surrounding blood beasts, controlling a large number of wind blades to kill all the blood beasts and turn them into Lu Changjing's trophies.
At this moment, Lu Changjing was like a ruthless killing machine, and the entire Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Profound Array Group was his killing tool. Without using his major and minor magical powers, the power of the Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Profound Array Group was not much worse than if he were to do it himself, and it even had an advantage in group attack.
The only drawback is that the consumption is too great. A huge amount of spirit stones and black stones are being consumed at a terrifying rate. Countless spirit stones and black stones are consumed every minute and every second.
It is true that wars are fought for wealth.
However, Laiyun Island had been well prepared for this trip and had stored a large amount of spirit stones and black stones. Moreover, compared to these consumptions, the value of the blood beast corpses that could be harvested far exceeded these losses.
Laiyun Island is on the defensive side, so it already has an advantage. The blood beasts often need to expend ten or a hundred times more energy and suffer more damage just to move forward a little bit.
Moreover, with Lu Changjing controlling the wind, fire, thunder and wheel mysterious formation group, the blood beasts suffered greater losses, but achieved smaller results.
Soon another day passed, and at this moment Lu Changjing's ranking on the contribution list had reached 9956th.
Included on the Contribution List are all the official disciples of the Wanxiang Sect who are under a thousand years old. Among them, the number of true princes alone is probably as high as several thousand, and the rest are some veteran inner disciples.
As for the outer-image disciples, none of them are listed on the Contribution List, and there are even no outer-image disciples on the Auspicious Cloud List and the Blood Demon List, because any outer-image disciple who can be ranked on those lists will be accepted as an inner-image disciple as soon as possible.
There are many inner-level disciples on the contribution list who have lived for nearly a thousand years and have accumulated hundreds of years of experience. How could Lu Changjing catch up with them in such a short time?
There are also those true princes who, with the help of their huge forces, have harvested hundreds of years of tasks, and the contributions they have earned from all things are simply astronomical.
It is remarkable that Lu Changjing was able to rank at the bottom of the contribution list in a short period of time.
He could also feel that his ranking on the Wanxiang Contribution List was improving very slowly, even though the number of blood beasts he killed every moment was as many as the number of blood beasts killed by many outer and inner disciples in years or even decades.
The full names of the three major lists are the Wanxiang Xiangyun List, the Wanxiang Blood Demon List and the Wanxiang Contribution List. Among them, the Wanxiang Xiangyun List has the largest proportion in the Wanxiang War, followed by the Wanxiang Blood Demon List, and finally the Wanxiang Contribution List.
But privately, many disciples of the Wanxiang Sect feel that the Wanxiang Blood Demon List should be the most valuable, followed by the Wanxiang Contribution List, and the Wanxiang Auspicious Cloud List has the lowest value.
I don't know why the sect attaches so much importance to the Wanxiang Xiangyun List, far surpassing the other two lists.
In addition to these three highly-anticipated lists, there are also some lists between each elephant, such as the Nine Yang True Disciple List, the Nine Yang Inner List and the Nine Yang Outer List of the Nine Yang Elephant, which rank the Nine Yang Elephant's true disciples, inner disciples and outer disciples respectively.
This list is not ranked according to strength, but according to the potential of the many disciples of the Nine Yang Elephant. In addition to these three major lists, there is also a Nine Yang General List.
The Nine Yang Ranking does not distinguish between true disciples, inner disciples and outer disciples. All formal disciples compete for the ranking together, and the ranking is also based on potential.
When he first joined the Nine Yang Elephant, Lu Changjing was ranked only 85th on the Nine Yang overall list, which could be said to be the last among the true princes.
After all, there are only about a hundred true princes in the entire Nine Yang Elephant. By the way, there is no age limit for this ranking, those under a thousand years old can be ranked above it, and those over a thousand years old can also be ranked above it, including all the formal disciples of the Nine Yang Elephant.
There is still some value. At least the value of the Nine Yang Elephant should exceed that of the three major lists. After all, the three major lists only include formal disciples under the age of one thousand. If they are over one thousand, they will automatically withdraw from the list.
The four major lists of Nine Yang Elephant may sound a bit inferior, but if you know that the huge Nine Yang Elephant has more than one million formal disciples, you will not feel inferior.
Those who can rank among the top among the more than one million formal disciples are all peerless geniuses.
The Nine Yang Elephant is one of the middle-ranking elephants, and one of the top elephants among the middle-ranking elephants. Even for outer-ranking elephant disciples, the requirements are quite strict. Generally, they are required to have a yang physique, and the one yang physique can be said to be the worst.
Inner-image disciples generally have a physique with four or more Yang, or a physique of the same level of Yang. Not to mention the true disciples, a physique with seven or more Yang, or a physique of the same level is the most basic, and various other specialties are also required.
If every outer disciple of the Nine Yang Elephant were placed in the Lieyang Divine Dynasty before Chang'an Island, they would all be geniuses who were cultivated with emphasis.
But when he reached the Nine Yang Elephant, he was just an ordinary Outer Elephant disciple, not even an Inner Elephant disciple.
Later, as Lu Changjing soared on the Xiangyun List and made a splash on the Blood Demon List, it caused a sensation. He also began to soar on the Jiuyang List and is now ranked thirty-sixth.
However, since there were not many rewards for being ranked on the Nine Suns Overall Ranking, Lu Changjing had not paid much attention to it. He was mainly concerned about the three major rankings of the Wanxiang Sect. After all, even if it was the Wanxiang Contribution Ranking, which was ranked at the bottom, as long as one was ranked on it, the rewards received each year were enough for ordinary Xuanzun to practice. The higher the ranking, the richer the rewards.
As for the Wanxiang Blood Demon List and the Wanxiang Auspicious Cloud List, there is no need to mention them. However, although the Wanxiang Contribution List is ranked last, it is said that when examining whether disciples under the age of one thousand are qualified to hold important positions, the Wanxiang Sect mainly refers to the Wanxiang Contribution List.
When conducting the assessment of the Elephant Master, the contribution of all things is a particularly important part, far exceeding other aspects. The three major lists can be said to have their own merits.
It is said that there are also some rankings for disciples over a thousand years old, but because they are a bit far away from Lu Changjing, after all, he is only in his few dozen years old, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
On the third day, the blood disaster became even more severe. Overwhelming blood beasts came from all directions, flying in the sky, crawling on the ground, swimming in the water... It was an all-out attack by land, sea and air, and Laiyun Island faced even greater pressure.
Lu Changjing remained calm and composed, manipulating the Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Mysterious Array Group, constantly killing the blood beasts around him. The Wanxiang Contribution on the Nine Yang Token was changing every moment, increasing at a rapid rate.
Moreover, as the commander-in-chief of this war, who was previously considered to be the commander-in-chief who was just making contributions for free, he can also get a considerable share of the Vientiane contribution, which is the Vientiane contribution obtained for protecting Laiyun Island.
Lu Changjing also has a share of the Wanxiang Contribution obtained by all the warriors who come to Yun Island to kill blood beasts. After all, in many cases, the commander cannot directly obtain the Wanxiang Contribution, but it can play a decisive role in the war. Therefore, he will get different shares of the Wanxiang Contribution according to the size of the contribution.
But Lu Changjing was different. Not only could he directly manipulate the Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Mysterious Array to kill a large number of blood beasts and obtain considerable contributions from all things, he also indirectly became the core of this war, determining the course of the war, and everyone was convinced of him.
Under such circumstances, Lu Changjing was able to obtain the maximum amount of Vientiane contribution, and was able to be ranked on the contribution list in just a few days, and his ranking is still rising.
The more blood beasts there are, the more Wanxiang contributions Lu Changjing will naturally gain.
The warriors responsible for guarding the island were also shocked to find that even though there were more blood beasts on the third day, the enemies they faced were not much more than those on the previous two days, and they were basically all low-level blood beasts, and there were very few blood beasts above level 30.
Obviously, most of the blood beasts were stopped by Lu Changjing, especially those high-level blood beasts. If Lu Changjing had not deliberately let some of them slip through, they would not even be qualified to drink the soup, let alone eat meat.
Comparing people with others will lead to death, and comparing goods with goods will lead to throwing away.
After comparing himself with Lu Changjing, Zhou Zhi realized how mediocre his operation of the Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Mysterious Array Group was before. Not to mention its full power, he couldn't even unleash one third of its power.
Taking this opportunity, Zhou Zhi also learned a lot of methods of operating the Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Xuan Array Group from Lu Changjing, so that he could exert greater power when operating the Wind, Fire, Thunder Wheel Xuan Array Group in the future.
As time passed, more and more blood beasts attacked Laiyun Island. However, under Lu Changjing's guard, these blood beasts were like waves hitting the shore. Apart from turning into broken flowers, they could not play much of a role at all.
Large numbers of blood beasts fell down like straw and turned into corpses. They were then transported in by warriors from Yun Island and placed in various warehouses.
Under Lu Changjing's effective control, the number of blood beasts faced by the warriors of Laiyun Island is limited, and basically there will be no casualties. They can only become trophies of the warriors of Laiyun Island.
This made the warriors who came to Yun Island unable to stop. They only hoped that this blood disaster could continue forever. They really liked this kind of war where they could collect spoils without any danger.
In every previous blood disaster, hundreds of thousands or even millions of warriors would die. But this time, the number of warriors killed so far is less than 10,000, and it has been ten days.
Although Lu Changjing's ranking on the Vientiane Contribution List is not improving quickly, it is very stable.
He is now ranked 8615th and is about to surpass his ranking on the Xiangyun List. In just ten days, he has not only made it onto the Wanxiang Contribution List, but has also broken through the rank of more than one thousand. He has begun to attract the attention of more and more Wanxiang Sect disciples.
Even though we know that Lu Changjing went to Laiyun Island to get contributions, how could he get so many contributions? Isn't it a bit too much?
Even if it is to get contributions, generally you can only get a part of the contributions. But looking at the current situation, most of the contributions of this blood disaster seem to have gone to Lu Changjing, otherwise how could he have hit so many rankings in one go.
It’s not like there haven’t been true princes who have made contributions in small-scale blood disasters before, and the number was quite large. However, no true prince has ever made so many contributions. Not only did he make it onto the Wanxiang Contribution List, but he was able to rush up to more than a thousand places in one breath, and he is still constantly rushing up the list.
Isn't this a bit too exaggerated? Could it be that the people who came to Yun Island crippled all the blood beasts and handed them over to Lu Changjing to kill? Otherwise, how could they get so many contributions from Wanxiang?
Many Wanxiang Sect disciples also became puzzled. Even Zhao Jingang, who gave the opportunity to Lu Changjing, was extremely surprised when he heard the news. He quickly sent a message to Laiyun Island, asking Wu Xingping and others not to go too far. Otherwise, not only would it not bring any benefits to Lu Changjing, but it might make him a laughing stock.
However, after learning about the specific circumstances of how Lu Changjing earned Wanxiang Contribution on Laiyun Island, Zhao Jingang fell silent. He had never imagined that his junior brother was so terrifying.
It would be fine if he was good at cultivation, but his attainments in formation were also so terrifying. What kind of monster did my master recruit?
Even if it is a reincarnated person, being able to recover to this level in just a few decades and possessing such strength and attainments in formations is quite remarkable, isn't it?
If Zhao Jingang was given this opportunity, he knew he did not have the ability to achieve such brilliant results in just a few decades after reincarnation.
Many people thought that their junior brother had taken advantage of reincarnation to be able to make such rapid progress, but they never thought about whether they could achieve such results if they were given a chance to reincarnate.
Under normal circumstances, this news would not cause much waves, but no one expected that Lu Changjing could achieve such a brilliant record with just a small blood disaster.
The Lu family began to pay attention, the Nine Yang Elephant began to pay attention, and many elephants that were on good terms with the Nine Yang Elephant also began to pay attention... Some forces and individuals who originally suspected that Lu Changjing and Lai Yun Island had engaged in some illegal operations were speechless after learning the details of the matter.
"This child is like me, this child is like me."
On Chaoyang Peak, Cai Chaoan said for who knows how many times that as a great Tianzun, whose comprehensive strength is comparable to that of a higher-level Tianzun, he was smiling happily at this moment, no longer as calm as usual.
The excellence of this last disciple far exceeded his imagination, and he really seized the opportunity this time.
