At this time, the demon barbarian coalition forces broke through the two lines of defense of cultivators, which also met the old saying.

One round of energy will decline again.

In order to avoid the consequences, they did not rush to launch the third attack.

This gave Wang Cheng some buffer preparation time for monks who retreated from the front line of defense.

In the previous two wars, these people basically consumed most of the trump cards that they had prepared.

The decisive battle is about to begin. In order to survive in this last decisive battle, they must find some trump cards for themselves before the war begins.

If there is demand, there will naturally be a market.

In order to facilitate the front-line war monks to trade various materials, some places on the third line of defense at this time have established temporary markets by some merchants who came from "Baixiangfang". The various treasures sold in them are "original goods" brought directly from the stores of "Baixiangfang".

Wang Cheng is now in a temporary market closest to the Qingyun Sect monks' station.

Because it may be abandoned at any time, this temporary market did not deliberately put in any effort to decorate it. It just built some wooden houses on a flat ground, and a sign with the same name as the shop in "Baixiangfang" was hung in front of the wooden house to facilitate the identification of monks.

Wang Cheng took a look in the market and found the shop in Shenbing Valley.

He walked into the shop and found that there were two foundation-building monks talking to the shopkeeper and clerk inside, so he sat down at the tea table beside him and waited.

This kind of shop in a temporary market is not as good as a shop in a real market, and it will not be equipped with so many ordinary clerks. They are actually mainly engaged in business and are also monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage.

After Wang Cheng waited for a while, the clerk left the customer who had just bought the goods and came over to greet him.

He didn't say anything, and looked at the clerk and said, "I need some talisman arrows that can be used with the second-level spiritual bow. I wonder if your store has stock now?"

"Yes, our store now has five kinds of talisman arrows suitable for the needs of our predecessors. They are [Gengjin Armor Breaking Arrow], [Exploding Flame Booming Arrow], [Ice Crystal Split Arrow], [Poison Dragon Armor Breaking Arrow], [Wind and Thunder Armor Breaking Arrow]..."

Although the clerk was only at the late stage of Qi Refining, he had long kept all the treasures in the store in mind. After hearing Wang Cheng's request, he could easily tell him all the relevant talisman arrow information.

Among these talisman arrows, Wang Cheng is still familiar with the first and fifth types, but this is the first time he has heard of the other three types.

After listening to the clerk's introduction, he pondered for a moment and said to him: "Get me a [Gengjin Armor Breaking Arrow], a [Ice Crystal Splitting Arrow], and a [Wind and Thunder Armor Breaking Arrow]."

These three talisman arrows consumed 23,000 low-grade spirit stones in one go.

But Wang Cheng had no intention of being stingy with spirit stones at this time.

If you can't survive this decisive battle, what's the use of keeping the spirit stone?

Moreover, if these talisman arrows are used well, they may not be able to convert the consumed spirit stones to the successful medal.

Afterwards, Wang Cheng went to another store and spent 35,000 low-grade spirit stones to buy six second-level spirit talismans.

This time, the sect Gongku Lingshi he brought from Lin Yuanshan to consume a lot of money.

Next, he sold all the snake galls he had assigned from the Snake Valley to an alchemy shop, and exchanged them for a second-level detoxification pill and two second-level healing pills.

After purchasing all the supplies in this way, Wang Cheng went to the nearest temporary branch of the Longshan Academy Examination Division and checked the merits of himself and the Qingyun Sect monks.

This review was quite satisfying to Wang Cheng.

During the battle between Xiaoxiong Mountain, he first killed a second-level low-level crane demon and killed many first-level monsters, and won a total of 752 merit points.

In the subsequent Battle of Black Crow Mountain, he shot and killed a second-level barbarian sorcerer, indirectly saving the mountain protection formation of Black Crow Mountain. In addition to the original 100 merit points, he also received a reward of 150 merit points. In addition to the merit points provided by other first-level monsters, he also received 887 merit points in the battle of Black Crow Mountain.

What satisfied Wang Cheng the most was that he reported through Zhang Qi that he killed the monster [Snaketail Eagle] on his way to break through. After verifying the pair of poisonous claws and feathers he provided, he also verified from other survivors who participated in the Battle of Black Crow Mountain that there was a second-level mid-grade [Snaketail Eagle] at that time, he obtained another 200 merit points.

After comprehensive calculations, Wang Cheng’s current merit value is as high as 1839 points!

According to the merit value exchange standards issued by Longshan Academy, 500 merit value can be almost redeemable for a second-level low-grade spiritual weapon.

In other words, the merit values ​​accumulated by Wang Cheng can be almost exchanged for nearly four second-level low-grade spiritual weapons!

In this way, the talismans and arrows he consumed in the previous war were also worth the money.

Unfortunately, he is not good to use these merit values ​​to exchange for consumable treasures such as second-level talismans, because Longshan Academy has long distributed relevant inventory to all the inner disciples, and it has to be transferred from the rear, which will take a long time.

Compared with Wang Cheng's huge merit value, Lin Yuanshan has much less.

After the two wars, Lin Yuanshan's total merit value was only 437 points, which was not enough to exchange for a second-level low-grade spiritual weapon.

As for other Qingyun Sect disciples, that is even worse.

Li Zitao's merit value is 114 points, Yang Jing's merit value is 83 points, Fang Renli's merit value is 76 points, Qin An's merit value is 62 points, and Xiao Yiming's merit value is 57 points.

But no matter what, the merits of Fang Renli and Qin An met with Wang Cheng's promise to them at that time.

If they can survive the next decisive battle and return to Qingyun Sect, they can be promoted to inner disciples.

After checking the merit value, Wang Cheng did not stay outside for more time and directly returned to the Qingyun Gate's base.

When he returned to the station, Wang Cheng first gave the six second-level talismans to Lin Yuanshan and two elders Xu Jinfeng each to facilitate them to protect themselves in the next decisive battle.

Later, he also distributed all the strategic reserve talismans brought by Lin Yuanshan to all the Qingyun Sect disciples who came to participate in the war free of charge.

A long time ago, when Wang Cheng made talismans, he would follow a rule, that is, to draw one of the ten points and deposit it into the sect treasure house, a special small room, to serve as a strategic reserve for the sect.

As the name suggests, this strategic reserve is something that will never be used until the sect wars and face great difficulties.

Moreover, in order to prevent some talismans from weakening or failing due to time, he will replace them with newly made talismans every two years.

This time, Qingyun Sect was summoned to the front line to participate in the battle. Lin Yuanshan, in accordance with the sect's rules, launched these strategic reserve talismans and brought them to the battlefield.

Now that Wang Cheng has sent it, every Qingyun Sect disciple can get twenty or thirty spiritual talismans, most of which are first-level top-grade spiritual talismans.

After the talisman was distributed, Wang Cheng also gave a pre-war speech.

"I think everyone has heard about it these days. The decisive battle between our demon barbarian coalition is coming. This decisive battle not only determines who will be the real master of this land in the future, but also determines the life and death of all of us!"

"If we win this battle, this land will be completely included in the cultivation world in the future. Our Qingyun Sect and all the monks present will leave a legend on this land in the future. Later generations will know that among the first cultivators who set foot on this land to clear the wasteland, there is a sect called Qingyun Sect!"

"At the same time, we won this battle. In the future, the biggest external threat to us, the sects who have been rooted in this place, will no longer be a threat. All sects on our land will usher in a real takeoff, and all cultivators from all sects will also benefit greatly!"

"But the other way around, the same is true. Once we are defeated in this battle, even if you and I can escape from the battlefield by chance, they will be caught up by the demon barbarians who have driven straight into the future. This land will have no place for you and me. The spiritual fields we have worked hard to reclaim over the years and the results of our struggle over the past ten years will fall into the hands of the demon barbarians!"

"I'll ask you, would you like to see that happen? Are you willing to be chased back by the demon barbarians as wrecked dogs?"

When Wang Cheng said that, his voice suddenly rose several times, almost roaring and roaring.

Such a tone is indeed very motivating.

At least after hearing his words, most of the disciples of Qingyun Sect were filled with blood and shouted loudly: "I don't want to!"

The passionate roar spread over a radius of more than ten miles, making countless monks who heard it look sideways and can't help but look in the direction of the roar.

When Wang Cheng saw this scene, he couldn't help but nodded with relief and said, "Very good. Since we don't want to see that scene, then in the next decisive battle, we must try our best to exert our strength and contribute our strength. In this way, even if we fall here, we can leave no regrets!"

This pre-war speech soon spread throughout the position where Qingyun Sect was located.

As the commander-in-chief of Longshan Academy stationed in this position, Zhang Qi also admired Wang Cheng's approach of being the most important thing and praised him after learning about this.

It even used a typical example to send a letter to the Jindan stage monks in the sect, indicating that the entire line of defense could be promoted.

A war will always bring about all kinds of heroic and touching deeds, and it will be easy to discover and magnify the advantages of some people.

A smart commander will make full use of some touching positive deeds as propaganda, inspire the morale of the participants in the war and boost confidence.

When Wang Cheng gave a pre-war speech, he didn't think so much. He just felt that he had to say something to gather the confidence of his disciples in the sect and let them know who they were fighting for and why.

This is a necessary skill for those war commanders in his previous life.

But in the world of cultivation, such pre-war speeches are extremely rare.

Because wars in the cultivation world are often for the purpose of competing for resources and interests, and the cultivators participating in the war are also "cultural people", and they clearly understand what this war is for.

Of course there is no need to give such a speech.

But now it is different. Now it is a racial war between three different races. In addition to the dispute over interests, there are many factors such as racial hatred and personal reputation.

Because the factors of this war are complex and the intensity of the war is extremely high, many low-level cultivators who were recruited to participate in the war were confused by the large-scale casualties of the previous wars, and had a strong resistance to the war, and even doubted why they wanted to participate in this war.

In this case, a pre-war speech that can help the participants dispel confusion and boost confidence is very valuable.

So when Zhang Qi's presentation was handed over to the Jindan stage monks, after research by all the Jindan stage monks, he quickly made some polishing and modifications, and ordered the commanders of the fronts from all over the place to give speeches according to the model book to boost the morale and confidence of the participants.

Naturally, the names of Wang Cheng and Qingyun Sect also officially entered the eyes of all the Jindan stage monks in this unexpected form.

Even after discussion and voting by a group of Jindan stage monks, he was rewarded with 1,000 merit points alone for this pre-war speech, and he also waived the loan from Qingyun Sect to purchase the mountain protection array [Rongyi Qingguang Array] in one fell swoop!

This is a really unexpected surprise!

When Wang Cheng learned about this from Zhang Qi, he was also extremely surprised. Unexpectedly, such good things fell on him.

While he was surprised, he did not forget how this good thing came about. He immediately bowed to Zhang Qi and gave a deep bow, thanking him sincerely: "Fellow Daoist Zhang is really a noble person from Wang and Qingyun Sect! It is a blessing for Wang to meet him in this life. Please accept Wang's greeting!"

"It's impossible to use it, but it's impossible to use it. Master Wang is going to get up quickly."

Zhang Qi quickly reached out and helped Wang Cheng up, sighing: "These are all worthy of the Master Wang. There are not many sects on the front line who can have a sense of overall situation like Master Wang!"

After saying that, he looked at Wang Cheng with great meaning and said, "President Wang, you have truly entered the eyes of all the uncles of this sect this time. As long as you continue to work hard in this war and make more merits, you will definitely get unexpected results when you reward merits after the war is over!"

When Wang Cheng heard his words, he felt a move and couldn't help but remember them in his heart.

He also smiled and said to him with a smile: "When the war is over, please be sure to visit our sect as a guest. Wang must sweep the bed and wait, and open the mountain gate to welcome fellow Taoist Zhang!"

"Hahaha, it must be. If Zhang can survive until the end of the war, he will definitely visit Qingyun Sect."

Zhang Qi burst into laughter on his face and readily agreed to Wang Cheng's invitation.
Chapter completed!
