Capítulo 1911: Chapter 1880: Assignment

Jin Luo’s words were heavy, just like his mood.

As a veteran who had fought many times, he knew better than anyone the danger of the Ancient Battle Realm.

Because the caution required here wasn’t limited to the experts from other Great Realms; one also had to be wary of the dangers inherent in the Ancient Battle Realm itself.

Moreover, this time, an additional force had emerged in the war, making the situation even more chaotic.

The current Ancient Battle Realm was like a danger-infested pond filled with lethal crises.

A place of chaos, danger lurking everywhere.

After bidding farewell to Jin Luo and the others, Li Chen set off with his sixty immortals.

“Director Lin, where are we heading now?” A Daluo Golden Immortal asked Li Chen with a bow.

As Domain Realm experts, even though they were now soldiers, they didn’t want to be left in the dark.

Hearing this, Li Chen couldn’t help but smile wryly: “You heard Commander Jin Luo earlier. We’re acting separately now, without a specific destination. Our main task now is to search. Search for the missing people of the Three Great Legions, and also search for our Main General and Legion Commander.”

The Daluo Golden Immortal nodded and then fell silent.

“We’re all brothers here, no need to call me sir, just use my name. For the time being, we’ll have to rely on each other for life and death in this Ancient Battle Realm. I hope everyone can harmonize a bit; after all, unity is the greatest strength,” Li Chen said with a smile.

Hearing Li Chen’s words, the immortals finally relaxed a bit.

Because Li Chen had not been in the Starry Sky Immortal City for long, and their contact with him was limited, everyone was quite reserved.

However, after Li Chen’s speech, everyone relaxed quite a lot.

In fact, there were some Immortal King Level beings in the Metal Gengjin Fifth Camp, but because Yang Xin, who was an Immortal King, and Bai Tianyi, who was an ‘Immortal Sovereign,’ were with Li Chen, other Immortal Kings were assigned to Pang Gai and Hai Ming’s teams. Li Chen’s team, besides these three, only consisted of Daluo Golden Immortals and Great Yi True Immortals.

“Before taking action, I want to understand the abilities of everyone,” Li Chen said. “As I mentioned earlier, the strength of unity is the greatest. So, I want to know everyone’s abilities in the team and allocate tasks reasonably to improve efficiency and minimize casualties.”

Perhaps managing too many people wasn’t Li Chen’s forte. As in the past on Earth, he often acted as a hands-off leader in the Palace of the Nether King, but he was truly exceptional in leading small combat units.

Sixty Domain Realm experts weren’t particularly many, nor few.

Li Chen organized the sixty experts into reconnaissance, combat, and logistics teams.

Li Chen was pleased that, despite not necessarily having exceptional combat power, the Domain Realm experts from the Starry Sky Immortal City all had some special abilities.

For example, among the ten responsible for reconnaissance, almost everyone had unique methods, such as insect control, wind listening, and earth vision, which pleasantly surprised Li Chen.

After all, he couldn’t keep his Eye of the Dao and Divine Sense constantly active, as it would consume him too.

And so, the role of this reconnaissance team was evident.

Among the immortals handling logistics, each had their own specialties.

There were those skilled in defense who could provide defensive support for combatants, and those adept at healing who could perform emergency treatments for wounded when pills were too slow.

“For some reason, I’m quite satisfied with them,” Li Chen quietly said to the two women beside him. “Perhaps we won’t survive here without them.”

“Then just take them along,” Yang Xin said. “After all, we don’t know when we will encounter people from Heaven Realm, and as you mentioned, you have many enemies there. Having them with us is somewhat safer.”

Li Chen nodded. He understood Yang Xin’s implication.

Though it sounded harsh.

Yang Xin was no longer the ordinary girl who understood nothing. Over the years, she gradually understood the brutal world she lived in.

If not for her luck in joining a large family like the Mo clan, she might not have survived until now.

Yet such a behemoth as the Mo clan vanished overnight.

This is the cruelty of this world.

These immortals, in the eyes of both Li Chen and Yang Xin, were more of a burden than an asset.

Yang Xin’s suggestion was subtle, but Li Chen understood her point. If they faced insurmountable danger, these people might serve as a rearguard.

“Don’t worry, though I dislike such actions, I’m no fool. If we encounter such situations, I won’t hesitate,” Li Chen said.

Bai Tianyi didn’t fully grasp their conversation, merely blinking her large eyes twice.

Li Chen patted Bai Tianyi’s head, smiled, and didn’t explain further.

His power was too weak to protect everyone, so he had to prioritize.

Compared to those unfamiliar immortals, Yang Xin and Tian Yi were clearly more important to him!

“I truly am a bastard,” Li Chen thought to himself.

“Boss, a black giant beast appeared two thousand miles ahead, power unknown, but likely exceeds Domain Realm. It’s already noticed me and is heading toward us,” a Daluo Golden Immortal suddenly reported to Li Chen.

Li Chen’s expression changed.

He hadn’t expected to encounter this so quickly. And right off the bat, it was quite a challenge.

Beyond Domain Realm, it was Soul Realm. In other words, a creature at least equivalent to Immortal Venerable Realm was approaching them.

Li Chen’s Eye of the Dao opened instantly, and his gaze locked onto a colossal, pitch-black beast nearly two hundred meters tall.

Two thousand miles was no distance at all to a Soul Realm creature; evidently, they’d been discovered, and hiding wasn’t an option now.

“Combat team, scatter formation, prepare to engage,” Li Chen ordered immediately. “Also, logistics team, be ready to act at any time! Reconnaissance team, continue scanning the surroundings. If any other enemies are found, report to me immediately!”

“Yes!”

“Understood!”

Li Chen squinted his eyes, looking at the black giant beast.

“That black giant beast is at the Immortal Sovereign Level, prepare accordingly. I’ll handle the front, others flank and restrain. As long as we limit its movements, with our strength, we can take it down!”

“I heard the indigenous creatures in the Ancient Battle Realm hold tremendous energy within their bodies, greatly benefitting cultivators. Whether we get a taste depends on everyone’s efforts!”

The immortals burst into laughter upon hearing this.

“I’ve never tasted a creature of Immortal Sovereign Level before!”

“After decades of closed-door cultivation, it seems today we’ll have a feast!”
