olently collided. The second clash between Jiang Yun and Huanxu had officially begun.Although there was no sign of anything amiss on Jiang Yun's seated body, this encounter was even more perilous.This...Although these guards were formidable in strength, far surpassing the former members of the Horde and the disciples of the Inquiry Dao Sect, forming an array was not merely about raw power. It required more than just strength to fully unleash the array's potential.

Over the past twenty days, they have indeed been putting all their effort into mastering this formation, hoping to avenge their defeat as soon as possible. However, in Jiang Yun's eyes, there were still too many shortcomings.

Jiang Yun, since he wanted to let these guards win military merit from other guards, he naturally had to ensure things went flawlessly.

And, we must win convincingly, a victory so resounding that those who lose will be convinced and have nothing to say.

Hearing Liu Meng's summons, all the guards instantly transformed into streaks of light.

In just two breaths' time, they had all assembled, standing in perfect formation before Jiang Yun.

Looking at the speed of these guards, Lin Ruiguang's eyes flashed again.

He hails from the Nine Heavens, under the command of Yan Tianqi.

As the leader of the celestial army and aspiring to become the Heavenly Marshal, Yan Tianqi not only possessed extraordinary personal strength but also implemented the most rigorous training for his subordinates.

Even if we disregard the power of the heavenly generals in each heaven and only consider the overall combat strength, the Nine Heavens would still undoubtedly be ranked first.

But even those guards under Yan Tianqi were inferior in terms of gathering speed compared to the thirty-three districts' guards present, which surprised Lin Ruigang.

But he soon let it go.

Jian Yun, besides killing over two hundred guards on his first day in office, instilling fear in the rest and leaving a deep shadow in their hearts, also persisted in absorbing celestial power within the Tiangong Tower for six hundred breaths during this time. This feat was also spread among these guards.

And among these guards, there were also some who had once tried not to take the Bi Tian Dan, relying on their own cultivation to persevere.

Not only did they not last for a hundred breaths, most of them didn't even last for ten or so breaths. This made them admire Jiang Yun even more.

Besides, Ginger Cloud's teaching of the Nine Blood Chain Formation benefited them greatly.

Therefore, don't think that after Ginger Cloud's massacre he did nothing. In their minds, Ginger Cloud's image became taller and they truly recognized Ginger Cloud as the new deputy general.

Jiang Yun didn't feel much about the speed at which everyone gathered. After scanning the crowd, he spoke in a loud voice: "I heard that you have all been diligently familiarizing yourselves with the formation over the past twenty days."

"Now, I will test your proficiency in formations."

"Choose nine of you who are most familiar with formations, form a formation, and I will limit my cultivation to the same level as yours. Let's see the power of your formation."

Gingercloud's words left the guards staring at each other in surprise, but then nine of them stepped forward and bowed to Gingercloud in unison. "Please, sir, instruct us!"

These nine people, Jiang Yun was already familiar with. They were Shen Zhaozun and Li Mo, among others, whom he had taken from other Heavenly Generals, and they were also the commanders of all sizes here now.

These nine people's formation arrangement can be said to be personally taught by Jiang Yun, so they are naturally most familiar with the formation.

Ginger Cloud smiled slightly and said, "Set up the formation!"

Nine figures immediately trembled, instantly completing the formation layout. As the formation began to operate, Jiang Yun also stepped forward and entered the formation, controlling his cultivation at around the sixth level of breaking the law.

"I'm going to make a move!"

As soon as Jiang Yun spoke, everyone felt a flash of light before them. Shen Chaojun and the other nine were instantly sent flying to the ground, each with a look of bewilderment on their faces.

No one could quite figure out how Jiang Yun had broken through the formation.

Although this left them feeling a little down, they were mostly excited.

Because formations are easier to break, it means their power and potential for improvement are greater.

Come on, again!

Ginger Cloud started to break through the formation again.

This time, while breaking through the enemy lines, he also meticulously pointed out the flaws in the formation to everyone and how to rectify them.

This guidance lasted for over two hours.

When Jiang Yun withdrew, he couldn't help but sigh inwardly. Even for his three disciples, he had never spent so much time guiding them all at once.

Now, he was being so serious with a group of his own guards.

This is the thrill of military merit!

However, seeing the joy on all the guards' faces, Ginger Cloud nodded in satisfaction.

Military merit, it's a sure thing.

Next, Jiangyun introduced Lin Ruigang to all the guards.

Although he was not described in detail, he made people obey him for a period of time.

For Ginger Cloud's command, everyone naturally felt a little puzzled.

Especially Liu Meng, couldn't figure out why Jiang Yun would suddenly trust this small commander from Yan Tianqi's men so much.

However, now they didn't dare to disobey Jiang Yun's orders in the slightest, so naturally they all agreed.

Jiang Yun patted Lin Ruigang's shoulder again and said, "Lin Commander, I'm counting on you!"

Lin Ruiguang bowed to Jiang Yun and said, "I will certainly not disappoint your trust."

Although on the surface Jiang Yun had handed over command of the guards to Lin Ruiguang, he certainly couldn't truly trust the other party completely. So, secretly, he sent a voice transmission to Shen Chaojun and others, asking them to be more careful.

If you find anything amiss with Lin Ruiguang, please notify me immediately.

After arranging everything, Jiang Yun once again became a hands-off manager, leaving his mansion and heading straight to Leng Yichen's place.

Although Lin Ruigang would help him strive for military merit, during the grand competition, he challenged Lu Wenlin and won, and seeing Yan Tianqi and Di Zun collude, naturally he could also earn some military merit. He wasn't prepared to give up.

——

Let me know if you'd like anything else translated!

Seeing Jiang Yun standing before him, Leng Yichen said impassively: "You are a general of the first heaven, if you have something to do, you should see Mo Ze. Why did you come to see me directly This is a bit against the rules!"

Jiang Yun clasped his fists in a salute and said, "My lord, the matter I wish to speak of is probably beyond the authority of someone like Mo Tianjiang to decide. That's why I dared to come before you."

"Oh" Leng Yichen said nonchalantly, "What happened Even Mo Ze doesn't have the right to decide. Tell me about it!"

Jiang Yun deliberately looked around and said, "Master, is it safe for you to speak here"

Leng Yichen sneered coldly, "If this place isn't safe for me, then there is no safe place in Tianwai Tian."

"If you have something to say, just spit it out. If not, scram."

"Yes, yes, yes!" Jiang Yun nodded. "The main reason is that this matter is extremely important, so my subordinate had to be more careful."

"My lord, when I participated in the ancient relic hunt back then, after entering the restricted area, I saw Yan Tianjiang and a rather plump old man with a kind face and gentle eyes under a cliff."

Moreover, Yan Tian was still very polite to the elder, and in the end, he was even taken away by the elder.

Although his subordinates did not recognize the elder, they could be certain that he was from ancient times.

After finishing, Jiang Yun raised her head and looked at Leng Yichen.

While Leng Yichen remained expressionless, he said: "Just this"

Leng Yichen's so-ordinary reaction couldn't help but make Jiang Yun stunned and said, "Sir, Yan Tian is the leader of my Heavenly Outside Heaven, while my Four Realms Hidden and Ancient are sworn enemies."

"Yan Tianjiang will meet with Gu secretly within the forbidden grounds, and his demeanor is respectful. This clearly indicates that he is colluding with Gu in secret, betraying TiwaiTian and the Four Realms!"

"This is a grave sin!"

Leng Yichen said faintly, "I've known about this for a long time, but I've always lacked evidence."

Jiang Yun hurriedly said, "I am the evidence!"

Leng Yichen smiled slightly and said, "Don't even mention you, even if I saw it with my own eyes, without any evidence to capture the elder you mentioned, I wouldn't be able to testify."

And you should also be able to see that Yan Tian holds considerable prestige in the Heavenly Realm, even rivalling my own.

If I were to act against him based on this, without any evidence, once it was revealed, people would surely say that I was jealous of his talent and feared he would surpass me, so I took preemptive action.

Ginger frowned and said, "Then, should we just let it be"

Leng Yichen stared at Jiang Yun and said, "Originally, that was indeed the case, but since you have appeared, I also have an idea."

"I'm starting the archaeological hunt again. After you go in, no matter what method you use, find evidence of Yan Tian colluding with Gu Gou! How is it" help himself or prevent the reversal of time!This made his face extremely ugly, his eyes fixed on Jiang Yun.Ginger Cloud, however, merely said faintly, "The rules you've set are numerous, but it seem...
