Far to the west of the town of Lingko a large group of troops sent to reinforce the border's defences seemed to be hiding while resting, they were originally going to approach the town of Lingko but one of their three generals who were members of the Iron Blood Forces suddenly stopped them and asked them to hide.

Far ahead the general of the Iron Blood Force could see a fight between three people who were up against one person who had been overwhelmed, the general felt that the city of Lingko had fallen into the hands of the enemy especially when the person who was struggling was killed he was still staring towards the city of Lingko.

A short while later the general saw that there were a lot of troops approaching, as he was about to sharpen his mycical Divine Sense he felt a great pressure that made him fall down and get quite severe internal injuries.

His body trembled violently as he felt an extremely powerful aura pressuring him to his knees and he felt his body seriously injured especially some of his bones that were shifting just because of the aura he was feeling, and he felt, behind him the troops he was carrying were also not lucky as they also felt the pressure of even getting very serious internal injuries and there was a quarter of the members of the relief force who had died of incapacity resisting the aura that was suppressing them.

After a while the pressure they felt disappeared making them able to move as usual, the general took out a jade bottle containing a golden-white liquid that was Heavenly Water as well as his remaining and still-living troops.

"Immediately drink the Heavenly Water you have and move to the city before! Lingko City has fallen, lest the city we stopped before also fall into the hands of the enemy!".

"YES!".

The relief force turned around and returned to the city they had visited before, their movement was fast as there were dozens of horses still surviving used to carry the corpses of their fallen comrades before fighting.

The horses used by the Han imperial troops were driven quickly because they wanted to leave their place and quickly head to the nearest town from the city of Lingko, there were actually three other cities that were located quite close to the city of Lingko but in three different directions the city they had visited before was the closest city so it could be ascertained that the forces of the black alliance will move towards there.

The troops previously sent to defend the city of Lingko finally reached the city where they had stopped before within a day's journey, after arriving at the city the first thing the imperial troops did was to dig a tomb for the dead troops while the generals and commanders of the troops moved towards the residence of the city lord.

"General has the city of Lingko fallen?" The city lord immediately asked as he looked at the generals and commanders of the troops who had previously stopped in the city.

"Right and for that we will return here immediately to strengthen the defense of this city, your city lord I ask to send word to the capital regarding the fall of the city of Lingko into the hands of the enemy" the general of the iron blood army replied as well as made a request.

"Of course the general! Then I'll send you a letter delivery bird!".

After the departure of the city lord the generals and commanders of the troops went straight to the central room of the city lord's residence and set up a strategy there, he said, one of the bodyguards that the city lord had previously asked to summon the commanders of the city guard soldiers had also come along with the ten supreme commanders of the city guards.

"The commander of the guard soldiers, I am the general of the iron blood troops and the leader of the relief forces who are currently evacuating to this city. The city of Lingko has fallen into enemy hands, I ask that you immediately order the security guards to deploy evacuation orders throughout the city. In addition to providing food to the troops we brought, they must be ready for war because no matter when the enemy will arrive at the door of the city. Clear!?".

"Understand the general, then I will immediately arrange for my soldiers".

One of the commanders of the city guard force immediately sent out instructions through a round stone that was none other than a communication stone, a communication stone, the communication stone used is a stone commonly used by soldiers who are ordinary humans to send messages to each other.

In the world of cultivators known a lot of Spirit Tools are divided into various types according to their functions, one of the most common Spirit Tools is a communication stone.

The communication stones used in the world of cultivators were different from those used by ordinary humans, the communication stones used by ordinary humans were round without being included in the Spirit Tool and the range was also limited.

In the world of Cultivators known Spirit Tool with a communication function for those who do not yet have Divine Sense or inner contact with acquaintances, he said, The Spirit Tool for the communication of cultivators consisted of Mortal-grade with one star whose range was one kilometer for the Low-tier and continued to increase according to its level.

Spirit Tool Middle-grade communicators have two stars with a range of 10 km for Low-tier and continue to increase 5km for the next level.

The Spirit Tool High-grade communicator has three stars with a range of 50 km for Low-tier and increases by 10 km each level.

Spirit Tool Earth-grade communicators have four stars with a range of two cities for the Low-tier with the addition of a range of 40 km per level.

Spirit Tool Sky-grade communicators have five stars with a range of five cities for the Low-tier with the addition of a range of 60 km per level.

The Heaven-grade Spirit Tool communicator had a range of fifteen cities for the Low-tier ones with the addition of eight cities each tier, respectively, while at the Heaven-tier level this Spirit Tool was able to reach the entire landmass of the Eastern Star Continent was even able to reach the boundary of the intercontinental oceans which was the center of the barrier wall separating the four Continents which was the inhabited by living beings like humans.

Okay, we're back to the story.

The atmosphere of the city was so rowdy as the warnings and orders to evacuate had been spread by the city's guard soldiers, many residents who were ordinary humans flocked to leave the city with families carrying treasures they could bring to save themselves.

Those who still survive in the city are mostly neutral cultivators or Rogue Cultivators who want to help defend the city, the others were ordinary residents who did not want to leave their cities with the various excuses they used.

The city guard soldiers immediately made additional defenses in the form of traps in hopes of slowing down the movement of the black alliance troops even though it was not very useful because their enemy was a cultivator, the relief forces also formed additional defenses as well as preparing themselves for battle if their enemies had reached the front of the city gate.
