"He broke through."

Cao Zhi put down the battle report and took over the conversation, saying, "Chen Sanshi broke through in the midst of battle and is now above the Martial Saint level. Apart from Immortal Masters, he has reached the pinnacle of martial arts in this world."

Hear this.

Silence fell once again inside the Zhongjue Hall.

The expressions on the faces of the civil and military officials changed from excitement to calm, and then to fear.

Sun Xiangzong passed away only two years ago.

They haven't forgotten.

How arrogant this old governor was back then.

I didn't expect it to be so fast.

In the Northern Liang Governor's Mansion, another martial arts master above the Martial Saint realm appeared.

"Everyone."

Prince Cao Huan of Jin spoke up, "Let's first discuss how to conclude the subsequent battles, and what matters need to be addressed after they are completely over."

……

Wanshou Palace.

After the two cultivators from the Ascending Cloud Sect entered the Eastern Divine Continent through the teleportation array, they went straight to the imperial palace.

"I'm afraid you're too late, esteemed immortals."

They were not able to see the emperor; only eunuchs came out to greet them.

"late?"

The two cultivators exchanged a glance.

Huang Hong, the Grand Eunuch of the Directorate of Ceremonial, explained: "Our Great Sheng Dynasty has done everything in its power, but unfortunately, we are short of supplies. The army at the front should already be in a dangerous situation."

"Heaven and Earth Seal Restriction!"

The cultivator said anxiously, "Our teleportation array can only teleport a limited number of cultivators of a certain level at regular intervals. We really don't want to waste time."

"Yes."

The person accompanying him added, "My sect has already contacted a martial arts family at the True Strength realm, and they will arrive soon. Why can't you hold out for a few more days?!"

"Two immortal masters."

Huang Hong said, "Why don't you head to Guandu now? You might still be able to come and help."

The two cultivators dared not waste any more time and hurriedly flew away on their swords.

"His Majesty."

After they left, Huang Hongcai entered the hall.

"Your Majesty, the situation at the front is unfavorable."

He said in a heavy tone, "Not long ago, Commander Chen burned the letters treasonous with the enemy and opened the granaries to distribute grain to stabilize the morale of the troops, but this also led to the rapid depletion of food supplies. As of today, we have probably been without food for half a month..."

"Alas!"

Behind the curtain, the Longqing Emperor's voice was filled with sorrow:

"A talented man has returned to the netherworld, forever separated by the earth."

"Alas, alas~"

"I hope Your Majesty will take heed of your grief. His Highness Prince Jin has already sent people to Guandu to search for Commander Chen's remains, and will surely ensure that he is able to return to his homeland."

Huang Hong wiped away his tears: "The most urgent thing is for Your Majesty to calm down, take the Foundation Establishment Pill to break through your cultivation level, and protect this world."

"Valley of Fallen Leaves"

The Longqing Emperor spoke first: "How should we respond?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry."

Huang Hong said, "The contract that Zhu Gui brought was personally signed by an elder of Falling Leaf Valley. He will definitely not go back on his word, and he will probably send the Foundation Establishment Pill soon."

"Good news——"

outside the temple.

Suddenly, the loud voices of the other eunuchs rang out.

"Where has the good news come from?"

The Longqing Emperor asked a question.

"This servant will go and see."

Huang Hong quickly returned, holding the opened battle report in both hands, his voice trembling slightly: "Your Majesty... it's good news! Chen Sanshi has broken through to the Martial Saint level, killed the War God Han Xiang in battle, led his army to break through the fortified city, and inflicted a great defeat on the enemy army! They are right before our eyes!"

Behind the curtain.

The Longqing Emperor, who was recuperating cross-legged, suddenly opened his dragon eyes.

……

Guandu.

The great battle, involving hundreds of thousands of troops from both sides, has entered its final stage.

April 12th, the 76th year of the Longqing reign.

After the fall of the fortified city, the Western Qi army ran out of food supplies within ten days and had to retreat.

April 29th.

At Suishichuan, they were ambushed, and the Western Qi suffered 20,000 casualties, with their deputy general Gong Yu killed in battle.

April 30th.

All the cultivators in Fallen Leaf Valley abandoned Xiqi.

When the Western Qi army crossed the Luo River, they were pursued and killed, losing 50,000 soldiers and six generals. The corpses, along with all kinds of weapons, piled up and almost blocked the Luo River.

May 20th.

The Western Qi army in the Yiling region encountered pursuers again, suffering a loss of 60,000 men and countless casualties along the way, once again creating a scene of fear and unease.

Until June 20th.

Of the 350,000 troops of the Western Qi, only 150,000 remained. Thanks to Zhong Wuxin's near-perfect retreat route, and with the cultivators returning to provide assistance under orders from their sects, they were able to retreat west of the Great Wall and receive reinforcements, thus stabilizing the situation.

This is the end.

The Great Sheng army recovered the entire western border.

en route.

Chen Sanshi also collected the spoils of war from various battles, including magical artifacts from Zou Hu, Han Xiang, and others; he even had as many as twelve storage bags.

However, he himself is also recovering from injury.

The realms of transcendence and true power are like the difference between immortals and mortals.

Chen Sanshi fought against a true martial artist without being defeated, and even if the fight had dragged on one-on-one, he could have won. However, this came at a price: he suffered a serious internal injury, the most severe injury he had ever sustained since he began practicing martial arts.

Of course, all that's needed is a period of rest; there's nothing seriously wrong, and it won't interfere with cultivating the "Fire-Swallowing Technique."

[Cultivation Technique: Fire Swallowing Technique, Qi Refining Level 3]

【Progress: 122/800】

Chen Sanshi only needed to sit in the central command post and take charge, while Wang Jun handled all the other miscellaneous tasks.

This person went to great lengths to obtain the Foundation Establishment Pill, and was busier than Tong Xiaochu every day.

at last.

The army advanced westward.

We arrived at Chongming Prefecture.

This is the largest and most fortified prefecture city in the Mangshan area. After the army occupies this place, it will completely stabilize Mangshan and occupy this ancestral vein!

Chen Sanshi used the [Qi Observation Technique] to carefully observe and even went into the mountain himself, but he did not find any spiritual energy emanating from the mountain peak.

Obviously.

The revival of spiritual veins is not something that can be achieved overnight.

The spiritual veins that were once located at the ends of the earth were actually still dormant; they were simply dug out of the ground by my master.

The spiritual vein is in hand...

For the time being, there is no need to worry about Fallen Leaf Valley helping Western Qi to wage war, but the Ascending Cloud Sect is probably not a good thing either.

These are not issues we should be considering right now.

Distracted.

A majestic and towering city came into view.

The vanguard entered the city early, and now the city gates are wide open, welcoming the arrival of the main army.

On the city wall, one could see...

A man in a white robe stood on a high place, carrying a wine jar. He was drunk, and his voice was incredibly loud:

"Without my white-robed strategist, your army of hundreds of thousands would have long been nothing but bones in a grave. How could you have achieved such a great victory today?!"

"Black-robed San Shi, am I right?!"

"you're right."

Chen Sanshi calmly replied, "Without Mr. Liao, I wouldn't dare to be certain that the grain supplies are in Wucheng."

"Hahahaha!"

"What military genius Han Xiang!"

"What kind of supervisor is Chen Sanshi!"

"One fell for my brilliant plan, and the other relied on me to win the battle!"

The humiliation that had been suppressed for over a year finally dissipated, and Liao Fang was in high spirits. He took another swig of wine, then stared at the white-robed figure on the ground, frowned, and shouted sharply:

"My son has three stones!"
