Chapter 905: Chapter 601: Planning (Part 2)
Each swallow allowed them to see blood energy circulating around their bodies, nourishing their physique and spiritual energy.
In the central area of the base, there stood a blood pool of moderate size. Unlike the calmness of other blood pools, this one was like boiling lava, bubbling intensely, with a searing aura wafting over.
A figure sat cross-legged, hovering above the blood pool. The dark wings of the Demon King slowly spread, the shadows cast by the wing tips stably supporting his body.
Scarlet blood pillars rose from the pool, surging toward his body as if they were alive, and were completely absorbed the instant they touched his skin.
The golden patterns on the wings of the Demon King slowly wriggled, as the pressure emanating from him grew more immense and majestic, like a king in the night, surrounded by an overwhelming aura of dominance, making it impossible for anyone to look directly at him.
Qin Tian hid in the shadows, watching Li Qi above the blood pool with satisfaction.
Compared to other golden bloodlines, the Night Demon King Bloodline had a unique advantage — it could absorb the power in blood to refine the physique and enhance spiritual energy, far more efficiently than ordinary cultivation methods.
It so happened that he could continuously obtain Dragon Blood from the Mythical Society, supplied by the God of War Ares, including a significant amount of Tier Seven Dragon Blood, enough to support Li Qi’s bloodline refinement and also satisfy the consumption of many high-tier Night Demon Apostles under his command.
He believed that in half a year, Li Qi’s strength could break through to Peak Tier Six, and many elites at Tier Six could also emerge among the Night Demon Apostles.
These individuals would become indispensable backbones in the Nine Stars Martial Tournament.
“Let’s check out other places,”
Qin Tian had a thought and the next moment, he teleported to the Ice Extreme Pass martial training ground.
Boom——!!!
A thunderous explosion suddenly echoed throughout the training ground.
In the center of the training ground, two burly figures were fighting fiercely, their weapons clashing, the battle extremely intense.
Xiong wielded a giant axe surrounded by intense blood-colored battle qi, each slash carrying the force of ten thousand pounds, unstoppable.
Terreda held the Zhanshou saber, with pitch-black demonic flames raging, scorching the air. Each swing was accompanied by a sharp gust of wind.
The two top-tier spiritual artifacts clashed heavily, creating earsplitting explosive sounds, terrifying energy waves spreading outward like a hurricane, kicking up swirling dust.
Xiong and Terreda, like top warriors in an ancient Roman gladiatorial arena, let loose completely, fighting without reservation, sweat covering their faces, yet their eyes burned with fighting spirit. The spiritual artifacts in their hands seemed to resonate with their excitement, continually emitting clear trembling sounds, as if cheering for this exhilarating battle.
At the edge of the training ground, many Barbarian Warriors gathered, watching while discussing in low voices.
“The chief and Boss Xiong have fought dozens of times, haven’t they? Why don’t they get tired of it?” a young Barbarian Warrior scratched his head, full of confusion, and asked.
“You don’t understand, I recently learned a term called ‘evenly matched opponents,'”
an older warrior next to him smiled and explained: “Look, in terms of strength, Boss Xiong is clearly superior, his brute force unmatched; but the chief is more agile, with flawless dodging and maneuvering; Boss Xiong is blessed with spiritual energy, his explosive power astonishing, while the chief has the Barbarian Battle Pattern providing Dragon Power and demonic flames, his endurance exceptional. Plus, their weapons are equally matched, so they end up in a stalemate.”
“To be honest, with Boss Xiong’s strength, he’s really overqualified to always be our chief’s second-in-command,” someone couldn’t help but sigh, “With Boss Xiong’s capability, he’s fully qualified to lead a troop independently.”
“Exactly! Not to mention our Instructor Xue, who is not only powerful, but also top-notch in military leadership, much better than the cadres of the White Tiger Legion!”
Another warrior chimed in, “Why can’t Boss Xiong and Instructor Xue do what they do? I think our chief should suggest it to the Military Lord!”
“Yes! I think so too!”
Qin Tian, hiding high above, listened quietly to the discussions of the Barbarian Warriors below, a thoughtful gleam in his eyes.
It must be said, these warriors made a lot of sense.
Xiong may be simple and not good with words, but his strength is undeniable, and his loyalty unassailable. For years, he has diligently served as the deputy leader of the Barbarian Battle Group, earning numerous merits.
Staying in the deputy position indeed stifles his abilities.
However, Qin Tian also knew that for Xiong to lead a troop now, he was still a bit short.
Xiong has courage in excess but lacks strategy, lacking the ability to organize independently. He needs a reliable adjutant to assist him in handling military matters and to complement his shortcomings.
Just then, a candidate instantly appeared in Qin Tian’s mind — Zhuge Mubai.
This was one of the fifteen people recommended by Zhuge Yu, and also Zhuge Yu’s cousin, half a year younger than Zhuge Yu. He had just graduated with excellent grades from the Conducting Department of the Military Academy, not only solid in theoretical knowledge, but also achieved impressive results in military simulations and assessments within the Zhuge Clan, showing exceptional strategic and organizational skills.
Zhuge Mubai’s spiritual energy talent wasn’t outstanding, currently just a Tier Four Spiritualist, relatively weak, but he was exceedingly intelligent and meticulous, good at strategy and organization, exactly the best choice as an adjutant to support Xiong.
Xiong focuses on martial prowess, Zhuge Mubai on strategy, complementing each other, surely able to forge an elite force.
Additionally, the chief instructor of the Barbarian Battle Group, Xue Wuyang, also earned Qin Tian’s high regard.
Xue Wuyang still held his position in Zuiyu, but with his formidable strength and solid military skills, he not only trained the Barbarian Warriors into elites, gaining their love and respect, but even the commanders and soldiers of the White Tiger Legion admired him greatly, willing to submit to him.
Given Xue Wuyang’s strength and capability, leading a troop independently is certainly justified.
However, the Ice Extreme Pass is currently in a phase of expansion, with troop strength already quite strained, making it unrealistic to immediately allocate enough personnel for Xiong and Xue Wuyang to each lead their own troops.
Yet Qin Tian was not in a hurry, as he already had plans in mind.
This issue of troop shortage will be resolved before long.
Firstly, through the supplementation of Barbarian troop strength.
Previously, in the Azure Wood Star Realm, he had planted a Soul Seal on a slave merchant.
Now, with the full support of Lingfeng Trading Company, this slave merchant had gathered a large number of Barbarian slaves from Terreda’s home planet.
These Barbarian Warriors are naturally fierce and unruly, even as slaves, they refuse to bow or submit, their inherent wildness never quenched.
Moreover, their overall strength at the moment was not considered strong, so their prices in the slave market remained low, giving the slave merchant an opportunity.
The slave merchant used Lingfeng Trading Company’s funds to purchase all unsold Barbarian slaves on the market, and after initial training by Lingfeng Trading Company, dispatched a spaceship to send these Barbarian Warriors to Mingwang Planet.
The number of these Barbarian Warriors exceeded a hundred thousand, enough to form two elite legions.
More importantly, once these Barbarian Warriors consume the improved Superman Potion, almost every one of their strengths could break through to Tier Four and above.
A legion composed of over one hundred thousand Tier Four warriors, once formed, would be a truly formidable and daunting force, also allowing the conception of Xiong and Xue Wuyang each leading their own troops to become a reality.
Besides this group of Barbarian Warriors, the Ice Extreme Pass has another channel for troop supplementation — the Recruitment Order.
This is a special policy promulgated by the Empire to support the development of the Ice Extreme Pass, allowing it to recruit soldiers independently under the full supervision of the Military Department, for the purpose of defending the rapidly expanding territories of the Ice Extreme Pass against wild snow beasts and other potential threats.
Currently, as the great development of Mingwang Planet progresses, waves of immigrants will flood into the Ice Extreme Pass, among them not a few with spiritual energy talents, users with special abilities, and many retired veterans.
Some of these people would be willing to join the Ice Extreme Pass.
Their inclusion will not only quickly fill the troop gap of the Ice Extreme Pass but also enrich its troop composition, breaking the current single-force structure dominated by Barbarian Warriors, and making the overall troop configuration more reasonable and stable.
Next, Qin Tian went on to check on Adif, Kane, Ran Tu, and Old Ghost, evaluating their current status and making preliminary plans for their future.
Then, he arrived at Robert’s mechanical factory to experience Robert’s latest development in battle armor.
