nement realm cultivators.

In this illusion world, Qi Refinement realm cultivators were already the top of the world.

If word got out that there were more than a hundred Qi Refinement cultivators, any enemy would faint from fear.

After a period of famine, the people in this region were no longer living comfortably, and there were skeletons lying on the road.

Due to the large number of refugees that had surged into the two human cities not far away, the security became extremely poor, and civil complaints arose everywhere.

If this continued, there would definitely be a civil rebellion.

The officials could feed them for a month or two, but no more.

When the food supply was cut off, there would definitely be chaos in the city.

Then, the two cities simultaneously chose the same measures.

Conscription and war!

Using food to recruit refugees to join the army, firstly, they could increase their strength to suppress those refugees who were unwilling to join.

Secondly, they could send out troops to sweep the area and ease the food crisis.

Thirdly, if there was a war between the two sides, they could also make these extra people die.
Without them, wouldn’t there be more food and water for the rest?

The rapidly expanding Jiang City undoubtedly attracted the attention of the two cities.

Their location was in the middle of the two cities.

Under normal circumstances, this was a good place for transportation and development.

But now, it was the first choice for them.

How could they feel at ease without robbing such a prosperous city?

Two troops formed from refugees rushed towards Jiang Li’s group from the left and right.
Wherever they passed, there was practically no survivors.

They killed everyone in their way and snatched all that they could find.

When the scouts discovered that nearly 100,000 soldiers were rushing over from both sides, Zi Yao was so shocked that her face turned pale.

Although she had built a fence and made some mechanisms and defense tools that mortals could use, she could only deal with a small troop of a few hundred soldiers.
How could she withstand the pincer attack of tens of thousands of soldiers?

Logically speaking, they should pass the test as long as they survived this chaotic environment.

However, because Jiang Li’s village was developing too well, this situation was triggered after the target became larger.

However, no matter how well the villages developed, no matter how many refugees they recruited, during this era, they were unable to smelt metal on a large scale and forge weapons.
Compared to a true army, it was no different from courting death.

She did not know, or rather, she did not imagine, that there were already more than a hundred Qi Refinement cultivators in Jiang Li’s city.

Under the pressure of the army calamity, Zi Yao thought about it and made a decision.

She decisively led her villagers to abandon the stronghold and escape.
As long as they hid deep in the mountains, no one would be able to find them.

Although doing this meant that all her previous preparations had been wasted, she could avoid this calamity and find an opportunity later!

She softly said goodbye to Jiang Li’s village and left with the villagers.

However, this decision caused her to lose 30% of her villagers who went to join Jiang Li.

Abandoning her home, food, and water, she fled into the mountains.
It was already extremely incredible that 70% of the population chose to follow her.

Jiang Li had some ghost soldiers as scouts, so he was naturally much more well-informed than her.

In fact, although Qi Refinement cultivators were much stronger than mortals, ordinary Qi Refinement realm cultivators were almost at their limit when fighting hundreds of people alone.

In a battle of a hundred over Qi Refinement cultivators against tens of thousands of mortal soldiers, if both sides fought bravely and fearlessly, the chance of winning was really not very high.

However, cultivators were fast and had many methods.
They could completely use other methods to obtain victory.

For example, the shovel was a good tool to use.

The 108 villagers reincarnated from ghost soldiers were divided into two teams.
Each of them held a shovel and rushed towards the army on both sides of the road.

What they needed to do was not to kill those soldiers with shovels.

Instead, they destroyed the roads and obstructed traffic.

An army of nearly a hundred thousand people moved slowly to begin with.

Their transport carriages were even heavier.

At first, it was fine, but soon, the road in front of them became bumpy.
There was not a single flat area ahead of them.

That was the destruction caused by Jiang Li’s orders.
To those ghost soldiers, using a shovel to make a huge hole was not difficult at all.
The speed at which they dug the holes was much faster than the movement speed of the army.

Ordinary foot soldiers were fine, but the carriages carrying supplies and rations practically sank with every step, making it extremely difficult to move.

Under such circumstances, the army took longer and longer.
Soon, the heavy carriages fell behind.

Jiang Li then ordered two groups of ghost soldiers to go around the back, easily breaking through the defenses.
They directly burned the food carriages.

There were nearly 200,000 soldiers on both sides.
They were all stunned at this point.

There were no villages or cities in sight.
Without food supplies to support them, they would not be able to rush back and would starve to death on the way.

There was already a famine occurring, and now that they were faced with such fatal hunger, the army’s morale immediately collapsed.
