Chapter 52: REPORTING

Long Tao was currently sitting within the residence after he got assigned here. He was to wait for a day until the next order for him arrived. The rest of the avatars have left to join up in the respective academies. Long Tao chose this place so that he could gain live experience and train his skills against real enemies. Soon enough the tabloid of his arrived and he put his Qi into it. The rules enlisted were soon displayed to him. This was genuine information about the north-eastern military. The north-eastern military region was said to be the most chaotic region of the whole Jiao borders. That is the reason, the most powerful troops were stationed here. There was a direct confrontation with two countries with equivalent power to that of Jiao in this frontier and this was the perfect training ground for Long Tao. Long Tao chose this region for the varied regions. He knew that he was not going to stay in the Jiao country for more than 2 years from now and his aim by the time he gets out is to reach mid-Qi general realm at least. Only then with Long Tao’s power growth scenario will he be able to fight with Qi Kings. That would be enough to at least get out of the region into the broader world. He would love to pick up the pace even more if he was able to do it. Although he gets to experience in tempering himself by fighting the puppets in the practice arena of the Crimson Lord world he needs to fight real-life opponents. The basic difference one could see instantly between fighting a puppet and a real person of the same realm is that the puppet is pre-programmed to react in a particular way during a fight whereas humans aren’t. The human mind is always a mystery and there is no clear definition for the path he/she would follow up during a fight. That is why their actions were unpredictable. Being able to predict the next step for a human mind’s thinking is a great feat and can only be achieved in a controlled environment. Long Tao thought the north-eastern region s to not only be a good training ground but also a pathway of exposure for his future planning. The tabloid that was handed to Long Tao mentioned the basic situation of the northeastern regions, the conduct rules of soldiers, the map of the region around the Jiao nation, the troop strength of the Jiao country, the forbidden zones near the Jiao country, the various ranks within the army, the reward system, the major missions, and vision. The overall point of the whole thing was to provide the required information to the soldiers so as to avoid any confusion from the beginning. The north-eastern military was the most active war zone of the country the location to gather the maximum rewards points too. Therefore, lots of people joined the north-eastern military.

The ranks were divided into Foot soldiers (until mid-Qi child realm), vice-leaders (high-grade Qi child realm), Leader ( Qi master preliminary), Sergeant ( QI master intermediate), Lieutenant ( Qi master intermediate with contribution point), Wing Commander ( Qi master high grade ), Squadron leader ( Qi master high grade with contribution point), Vice- Generals ( QI general realm), General ( The strongest QI General in the camp). The division was related to the strength of the practitioners. Each grade had its own set of benefits. Be it monthly ration quota, reward points, resource allocation, and other situational benefits too. The most important thing in the military was the strength and how useful you prove yourself to the higher-ups. Long Tao, with his current strength, could easily have a rank of Wing commander while still being at the Qi child realm. But he decided to be low key. He would start with the position that related to his cultivation level. Not only would it not attract any attraction to himself, but he would also be able to have a conflict for some time. Soon enough the call for his presence was sounded and he went out to see a soldier standing there.” Are you Long Tao, who decided to join the military after the royal gathering?”. Long Tao shook his head in agreement.?? You are to come with me to the reporting station.”. Long Tao followed the soldier to the reporting station where another man was sitting on the counter. “State your name and cultivation level.” “Long Tao from the royal capital. Cultivation level at Peak Qi child realm.”. The man got the information jotted down, and soon enough handed over an identity token to Long Tao.” This is the identity token that identifies you as a member of the Jiao military. It will record the number of kills you obtain along with all the details regarding the cultivation of the enemies you slew etc. You can get it verified to obtain the contribution points you would obtain from killing. It is also the media where you would receive the mission details that are allocated to your group. The genuine details about your allocation are already listed in there. You should now pour a drop of your blood and bind the token with a blood contract. No matter what happens, don’t lose it. With it will go away your identity and contribution points, which in these regions could get you killed. The rest of the functions are listed below. The guy with you will be responsible to make you acquainted with the region and leave you at your group’s residence area.”. Long Tao did as was instructed to do. The token shinned up with a glow and his name shinned upon it. As he put his consciousness inside, he got to know of the various information that was stored in it. The solider asked Long Tao to accompany him. They moved around the campsite first, viewing the location.

Crimson Lord World-

Long Tao was currently sitting within the cave. his final rotation has formally been completed. It took nearly 8 months to complete the last 5 cycles of the hellspawn sutra with complement to the forge of death. Long Tao was currently concentrating on the learning of formation and upgrading his level to the 2nd level formation master. He wanted to set up the formation before entering the Qi master realm. It was because he knew that the requirement of the hell Qi is going to be very high after Qi master. He was going to continue the 12 forges of death even after entering the Qi master realm. This was because the 12 forges gave a huge physical boost even in the Qi child realm. He was sure it would provide the same benefit in the Qi master realm too. Long Tao decided to continue practicing the 12 forges until the time where it gives the boost. The formation was difficult to understand, but Long Tao still continued the study. He had to arrange the formation anyway. After around a whole month of comprehension, Long Tao finally broke through the 2nd level formation master and understood the gathering formation that was given with the Hellspawn sutra. The formation was a diagram that helps provide a linkage to the hell realm and absorb Qi from there. “Hell, the realm was one of the upper realms, according to the Keeper, Long Tao was not eligible to know about them yet. He decided to put up the formation fast. Now the drawing formation didn’t require any materials like traditional formation. It required the drawer’s blood and Qi combination to draw up the whole diagram. Long Tao understood the basic procedure of drawing it out and then asked the keeper to allocate an isolated space within the realm to him where he will draw the formation. Long Tao’s plan was quite clear, the formation to be drawn will e isolated from the rest of the realm. It will be concentrated upon in a particular spot. What Long Tao wanted to create was the same type of liquefication of Hell’s Qi as there was in the thunder-god academy and the forbidden land. Only such an atmosphere would be suitable for his requirements of Hell’s Qi. The Keeper complied with the idea and created an isolated region within the open grounds of the Crimson world realm. Long Tao started drawing the formation. The blood QI along with the hell-heaven Qi started drawing out of Long Tao’s body as he continued the process of drawing the formation. As expected by Long Tao, the lines created were of the mixture of both Hell and Heaven Qi. Long Tao expected that not only hell, the formation would be able to create a link to the Heaven realm also, drawing the aura from there too. Only then could he still maintain the balance of the two auras in his body. The figure was finally complete after a long period of hard work. The formation was finally ready. The last step was to drip the blood essence to invoke the formation. Long Started dropping his blood onto the formation and it started working. The aura was faint but slowly it was starting to gain a link with the realm. The one thing that elated Long Tao was the fact that it was invoking to establish a connection to both Hell and Heaven realm. This was a major achievement for him. Soon enough the Formation had started to stop absorbing any more blood essence, and the auto-working schedule started itself. The isolated space finally started having Hell and heaven Qi. The Qi was slowly filling up space. Long Tao knew that it would take a bit of time even with the formation working continuously to reach the level of density Long Tao was expecting. SO he left the area and proceeded toward his dwelling to continue his cultivation, forgetting about the isolated space as of now.

Tamar-

Long Tao reached at a shabby looking building at the outskirts of the city, towards the enemy territory. This was the residence indicated in his tabloid. This was supposed to be the dwelling of the group he was assigned to. He opened the gate and proceed towards the inner building. But just as he was about to enter.” Who are you, trying to sneak into our squad house?”. A figure showed itself in front of Long Tao. It was a man in his middle twenties. He had a cultivation realm of Peak mid-Qi child. “Are you a member of the Blackbuck squad.” The man arrogantly showed a disgusting face and said:” You are not to ask the question”. But then suddenly, he felt a slap on his face as his body was sent flying, breaking up the wall in front and embedding itself on the floor. Long Tao took out his sword, pointed its edge at the man’s neck, and asked:” Final chance, are you a member?”. The man was too scared and injured to say anything. “Times up.” Long Tao raised his sword and swung it down, but at the last moment it was stopped by someone.” You are not to harm members of my squad”. A female voice sounded in Long Tao’s ears.” He is a member of the blackbuck squad and this is our territory, behave.”. Long tao took his sword back and asked the female. “Who might you be?”. “Mengdi, vice-captain of blackbuck squad.”, but before she could say another word, her lower abdomen suddenly hurt and she was sent flying too.” Good enough. I am the new joining Vice-leader. And I don’t take orders or opinions from weakling like you. Now where the fuck is the leader of this squad?”. Mengdi was not even able to move from the last attack. This guy was a Qi child realm practitioner just like her, but she was not his match. Long Tao proceeded to keep his luggage on the couch and waited. Soon enough another female appeared. The batch of captain hanged on her belt. She saw the scenario and was angry with it when she saw the figure of Long Tao relaxing on the couch. “Did you do this to them?”. “When subordinates don’t understand how to respect their superiors, they are to be punished.”. The lady seems to realize something and said “You must be Long Tao. Although I understand if they show you some disrespect, you need to show them some care as being the leader of their squad.”. “Everything in this world is based on strength. These weaklings have no strength but are arrogant. The same goes for you. Report your damn name.”

The lady was astounded. She was the squad leader and a vice-leader was not giving her face. She released her aura and proceeded towards Long to. But when Long Tao just turned around and glanced at her, the whole aura released was completely suppressed and wiped out, as if it was not present in the first place. The pressure in the atmosphere brought Su Menqi (the squad leader) to her knees. “Weakling.”. Long Tao adjusted his throat, gasped some air, and with a loud roar said ” all the squad members of the Blackbuck squad, report immediately at the lobby within 1 min, or you will be dishonorably discharged from duty and executed right here.” The roar reverberated the whole building, making it shake. Soon enough multiple figures were visible within the lobby.
