Fang Ning watched as the System Notification showed, [The System consud a massive amount of experience points and upgraded the Atmospheric Morality Technique complete version to Advanced-level, reaching the bottleneck of the current level. The System will gain new effects as follows:]

[The lizard demon died.]
[The System obtained 14.2 million experience points.]
[The System obtained a huge amount of Heroic Fa.]
[The System obtained a massive amount of Morality, all Morality Bars full.]
Fang Ning said, “That’s… impressive…”
The System replied, “What a sha, they all ran so quickly. If only the soldiers could keep it up for a few more minutes, I could’ve slain another one.”
Fang Ning said, “Stop being greedy. If it were just us, don’t even think about stopping them from running away. We would’ve spent several days, maybe even a dozen days before you could defeat one. You’re lucky to have all the support behind you to one-hit KO this one, and you didn’t even consu that much vital energy to begin with.”
The System responded, “Don’t just say that I’m lucky. From what I can see, Qiao Anping seems to begin to break through. I’m guessing it was his first Pond-level monster too, so he would benefit a lot from this. And those n-in-black? Being a lower level, most of them would have advanced soon after experiencing this battle.”
Fang Ning nodded, “True. They had been cultivating in the Land of Heritage where Vitality is so concentrated, I’m guessing many of them would have reached the bottleneck, missing only an opportunity to break through. I say this is a win-win situation. After a few more battles, this army would have evolved into a superior army.”
The System muttered, “Still, slaying a demon head-on would’ve given more Morality and fa. It’s easy to steal a kill, the experience points are the sa, but the rest were cut down so much.”
Fang Ning quipped, “Nonsense, it wouldn’t have given us much fa anyway. Oh right, rember not to pocket the whole lizard carcass by yourself. We need to leave them so so they would help us again next ti.”
The System said, “I really would have pocketed it if you didn’t remind …”
***************
Everyone at the Truth Departnt welcod Vigilante A into the hall and took their seat.
A dangerous incident had passed without any casualty. Even if Vigilante A was not there to help them, they would still be able to survive this encounter. However, they would have needed to sacrifice quite a bit.
For the first ti in days, Elder Hai’s face finally loosened up. He chuckled and said, “It’s just like the Venerable One said, that powerful fiend was desperate to advance into the next stage after having stayed in the Land of Heritage for so long.”
“If we’d just keep occupying this space and don’t allow it to contact the Indians, it will send beasts to attack us. However, it didn’t realize that it will only be helping us train our army, increasing our might. Venerable One, your plan was truly impressive.”
Vigilante A answered, “You’re welco.”
Qiao Anping looked as casual as he usually did. It was his first attempt to slay a Pond-level creature, and it gave him much to think about.
He continued the conversation, “Elder Hai was right. Hu Feng’s n were lucky. Those beasts were hard to kill. Our n used to only be able to wound them, but had never been able to catch up to them once they started taking off due to their injury.”
“This was the first ti we could kill even one of them so easily. Our Tiandao formation had increased in power after this battle, and even I had been able to gain much experience from it. All these were thanks to you, Venerable One.”
The System muttered, “You could stop praising with useless words and start giving more money…”
Fang Ning warned, “Behave. We gained quite a bit from this as well. We’ll still need their help in the future, don’t be so money-minded.”
Vigilante A replied, “That’s nothing. Your Tiandao formation was the one that did most of the work. If it were soloing those creatures, I don’t think I could kill even one.”
Elder Xu joined in the conversation, “You’re too humble. Elder Hai, I think Hu Feng’s n could still work harder on their cultivation. If the creatures attack again, they would not be able to defend for long.”
Elder Hai was confident. He said, “That’s not a problem. Even though we were never able to train a huge number of alchemists, we did have a healthy stash of pills for ergencies. We can issue them five tis their usual approved amount of pills from our backup stash.”
“Opportunities to slay Grade-A creatures like this were hard to co by. We should seize the opportunity now that we have the Venerable Dragon God to lead the army. We might not get chances as good as this in the future with the monsters fleeing manically.”
Fang Ning heard that and hinted to the System, “Aren’t you an alchemy master? Should we offer to make their pills for them, since even one portion of those could make more money than my restaurant can in a few years?”
The System snapped back, “I’m also a cooking master, should we also offer to make all their food?”
Fang Ning could not think of a counterpoint, “You could’ve just said those take up a lot of ti and will eat into your schedule to farm monsters, do you really have to snipe at ?”
The System said, “Stop with the nonsense. From what they were saying, the farming spot is already done. They will definitely cooperate when I’m farming those monsters. After we get out of here, I will transfer one hundred million over to you.”
Fang Ning responded, “Heh, heh. That’s good enough. You really are a hero who keeps his words. I approve.”
***************
The next day, a sudden fog flooded the valley.
Caution kicked into high gear as the black-uniford army ford their ranks.
Through conning Long Fan daily, the map of the Land of Heritage had been in a state of being unveiled.
The System Map did not show any creatures assembling near the walled city, but the System was concerned about the fog being able to conceal the monsters from its map, so it did not stop the army from forming.
However, it did not just watch as the people gathered. As Vigilante A, it inford Chief Hu that only half the personnel were needed, letting the other half rest.
With System Notification as its lookout, the System could see how dangerous an encounter could be before it happened, that was sothing no other powerhouses could compare. It could easily determine how much power it needed to defeat a Pond-level berserk beast without wasting any manpower.
With that order carried out, people were also less concerned. If they could battle in two shifts, it would be a lighter load on their pill usage too.
However, until the fog dissipated, there was not even one monster that appeared.
The System wondered aloud, “What happened? Why did the king cobra not attack us with any of those monsters?”
Fang Ning answered confidently, “Just be patient. It had just lost, so it must be trying to think of a way to defeat us. I doubt it can though.”
“I had already tied up all the loose ends, its best way against us is to send beasts after us unless it doesn’t mind risking injuring itself. If it did co, just hit it with a Dragon Force Tiandao. Let’s see if it’s strong enough to co out of it unscathed.”
The System said, “So that’s why. Host, you’re clever, it would most definitely not be able to find a loophole in your plan.”
Fang Ning said, “No worries, no worries. Everything is under my control.”
On the third day, it was still eerily silent around the walled city in the valley due to the king cobra not showing up.
The System, “…”
Fang Ning, “…”
The fourth day, still nothing.
The System said, “You tricked ! This farming spot was not built at all! The king cobra did not even take the bait. Your reward is canceled.”
Fang Ning replied imdiately, “Please don’t, don’t cancel the reward, let think.”
The king cobra was an intelligent boss. Since it realized the controlling effect it applied to the monsters would be dispelled with the Tiandao and Sealing Formation combination, it would, naturally, not send any monsters out anymore.
Everyone in the Truth Departnt was patient enough to not question Vigilante A’s plan.
They had been surviving in the Land of Heritage for years. All of them had pretty good perseverance. To keep the mutated beasts away from their herb bases, they often needed to keep going for weeks before they could rest. A few days would not have even touched the upper limit of their patience.
Defending the walled city in a relatively safe circumstance allowed them to absorb Vitality at their own ti. Doing so kept their food and water consumption relatively so low that they could maintain it for months.
So people scheduled for resting took advantage of it and went into secluded cultivation, attempting to advance their stage by assimilating their experience of the previous battle.
Fang Ning took a long ti to think, but he could not co up with anything better, so he muttered, “Dammit, what is this cunning spadehead thinking?”
The System said, “Don’t ask , I don’t know.”
Fang Ning cursed again, “Dammit! If it were as smart as you, I wouldn’t have to waste so much of my brain cells.”
Fang Ning’s head started aching, so it turned into his dragon form and started to charge in the air haphazardly when he suddenly saw the ga book on the desk in the System Cyber Cafe.
An idea flashed through his mind, and he said, “Hey, I think I have an idea.”
