I Have the Alchemy Emperor in My Head-Novel2

Chapter 1857 Wherever the Flag Went, It Was Invincible

The matters in the world were big and small, but in general, they were just matters between the top figures. However, those big shots who could really influence the situation of the world would not easily make a move. Once they made a move, it would definitely be a major event that would shake the world.

Therefore, the people who were the most in the limelight and the most active were none other than the young geniuses on the prodigy list. All kinds of things in the world that caused a sensation were more or less related to these geniuses. As time passed, the strength and influence of these geniuses continued to grow, and they gradually came to possess the ability to influence the world.

When these prodigies started secluded cultivation, the situation in the world suddenly became calm. As the rankings kept changing, many people suddenly realized that Chu Yunfan, who was famous a year ago, had fallen down to below 60th place.

From the original 35th place on the prodigy list, he had suddenly fallen to the 67th place. In front of him were all Creators. In other words, he was the number one person below the Creation Stage.

However, this title wasn't a pleasant one, especially when Chu Yunfan had rushed into the top 30 and stepped on many prodigies. It had aroused the dissatisfaction of countless people. If Chu Yunfan could maintain his strength, it would be fine. Once Chu Yunfan showed the slightest fatigue, he immediately became the target of ridicule.

"It's only been a year and he's already fallen to 67th place. In another year, when the rest of the people have broken through to the Creation Stage, he'll probably reach the end of the rankings. In another two years, when those geniuses behind have also broken through to the Creation Stage, he won't even be able to stay on the prodigy list. In the end, he's just a nouveau riche without any foundation."

Almost everyone thought so. For a time, all kinds of strange theories spread. For a moment, Chu Yunfan had gained the recognition of the vast majority of people. After all, the Creation Stage was a natural moat in front of Chu Yunfan.

From the looks of it, he could cross this natural moat. The number of people who pursued him back then was now the number of people who mocked him. It was as if it was not enough to show how extraordinary they were.

Baotai, a border city, had undergone earth-shaking changes in just a few years after Chu Yunfan moved in. The city walls that had not been renovated for many years had been renovated, and the arrays and enchantments had been repaired and supplemented. In just a few years, Baotai had expanded to more than twice its original size.

The originally declining border town had now become a central city. The garrison troops that were stationed in this city had also been upgraded to an external army a year and a half ago. The presence of tens of thousands of soldiers greatly increased the sense of security in Baotai. In just over a year, many people had moved over from other places with their families. The city's population exceeded a million, and it became a well-known economic and military town.

The ordinary citizens in Baotai did not know much about the changes on the prodigy list, nor did they know about the rumors. To them, they could clearly feel that ever since Chu Yunfan led the external army into the city, the entire city had improved. action

The aristocratic families that were originally entrenched in Baotai relied on sucking the fat of the people to live a decadent and rich life. After Chu Yunfan uprooted these aristocratic families, the shackles on the ordinary people of Baotai were removed. Other than the taxes that had to be paid, there was no need to care about anything else, let alone all kinds of exorbitant taxes.

Baotai became more prosperous as the days went by.

Chu Yunfan had no interest in exploiting Baotai. Although he wanted to raise an army of tens of thousands of people, with his strict standards for the army, the resources consumed were countless. The income of Baotai alone was not enough to support such an army.

Fortunately, ever since he was promoted to Faraway General, the Imperial Court had changed its previous attitude of not caring about him. Not only did the Imperial Court allocate the best recruits, but it also allocated elites in all kinds of military affairs to Baotai.

Even so, it was still very difficult for Chu Yunfan to feed such an army. This was because he was ambitious and wanted to build a trump card army that far surpassed ordinary elites. Therefore, he was not stingy with all kinds of resources, especially with low-level cultivation resources. For the current Chu Yunfan, they were of no use at all, but for the external army, they were of great use.

In just a year, the entire army had undergone earth-shaking changes. Among the tens of thousands of troops, except for the members of the early Baotai garrison who had followed Chu Yunfan, who had long become Abstracts, the soldiers of Baotai had become Abstracts. The new recruits had also stepped into the Abstract Stage after more than a year of training.

With an Abstract army of over ten thousand people in his hands, it was hard to imagine how terrifying the army spirit could be. Chu Yunfan even dared to say that with this army, he could fight against a Creator without even fighting.

Within a year, the entire army had undergone earth-shattering changes. They were using the original guards of Baotai as a framework to expand. The ordinary guards of Baotai were promoted to low-level officers such as centurions.

In addition, Chu Yunfan's reputation in the Flying Celestials had increased greatly. Countless people had attached themselves to him and became his followers. Among them, many elite disciples had been stuffed into the army by Chu Yunfan to become middle and high-level officers. These elite disciples were all experts at the Abstract Interpretation Stage and could be field officers. Now that they were all gathered together, such a configuration could simply be said to be super luxurious.

It was precisely because of the addition of these elite disciples that the entire army could undergo earth-shaking changes in just over a year. It truly possessed the standards of a strong army.

Chu Yunfan knew that a strong army couldn't be raised in a greenhouse. When this army was established, they used the geographical advantage of being at the border to attack everywhere and pacify the place.

Originally, due to the lack of control over the border regions, Grand Xia was unable to control them well, causing all sorts of bandits to run amok. There were demons, the Hus, barbarians, and other foreign races that infiltrated the border regions.

In just over a year, they were all wiped out. They were either uprooted or fled thousands of miles away after hearing the name of the external army. Wherever the flag went, it was invincible.
