Chapter 415 – The Battle Ends, Bad News from the Northern Frontier
Chapter 415 – The Battle Ends, Bad News from the Northern Frontier
Those two people, they had just actually self-detonated their physical bodies and their innate Pure Yang True Treasures.
The remaining Yuan Shen, although still able to let them continue to survive, but suffered such a serious injury, since then, their future path has been completely cut off.
Even their lifespan would be greatly reduced as a result.
Under normal circumstances, the lifespan of a Heavenly Monarch of Transformation God would probably be around five thousand years.
If it was combined with various life-extending spiritual substances, theoretically, it could live up to nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine years.
However, for the current Xiao Shenji and the upper channeler, their lifespan, at most, would not exceed a thousand years.
Moreover, unless it was the kind of life-extending spiritual substance that specialized in life-extension for Yuan Shen.
Otherwise, ordinary life-extending spirits would no longer have any effect on them.
And this is the price of blowing up the flesh and the original Pure Yang True Treasure.
Most importantly, after this battle, the East Extreme and Central Region’s attack on their Western Desert and Northern Border could be said to have failed.
Unless they were willing to gather all the power of the two domains and come out in full force.
But that was clearly impossible.
Once they did do that, then the rebel forces located in their respective territories would immediately make a move.
Take for example the East Pole right now.
When the news of the fall of the Yaoyang Heavenly Monarch, Chu Wuyou, Chu Tianzong, and the others spread out.
When the news of Xiao Shenji and the upper channeler’s physical bodies being destroyed came out.
Certain rebel forces located behind them immediately began to stir.
Especially the Eastern Pole.
One must know that in the front foot, in order to hinder Shen Ruyan from becoming a Taoist, three East Pole God-realizing Heavenly Monarchs, Daoist Huang Qiu, Swordfather Worryless, and Heavenly Monarch Shaoyang, had already fallen.
Now, in order to attack the Western Desert and Northern Border, they, the East Pole, had another three God Transforming Heavenly Monarchs, the Yaoyang Heavenly Monarch, Chu Wuyou, and Chu Tianzong, fall.
Before and after, the number of God Transformation Heavenly Monarchs that had fallen in the hands of Jiang Chengxuan and his wife in the Eastern Extremity had been as high as six.
What kind of concept is this?
As in the Southern Wasteland, there was only one Heavenly Monarch Wen Yuan.
As in the current Western Desert, there are only two God of Transformation in attendance.
Even in the Northern Border, there were only three Transformation Deities.
It can be seen.
Jiang Chengxuan and his wife, this time, the commotion they had created was just how big and shocking it was.
Under such circumstances, the four great Transformation God powers of the East Pole were clearly already somewhat on the verge of being unable to suppress the situation.
If they still continued to place a large portion of their power here.
Or even mobilize their forces from the mainland again.
Then there was no need to doubt that it wouldn’t be long before their four Great Spirit Transformation forces would inevitably face an attack from the native rebel forces.
So.
After Xiao Shenji and the Upper Channeler’s Yuan Shen, fled back to their home camp.
The Pingyang Heavenly Monarch, who had been rescued by Xiao Shencong and the Heartless Daoist, in passing, immediately raised the suggestion of whether or not to withdraw from the situation.
This was because by this time, he had already learned of the news of the change in their Eastern Pole from his own clan.
That Rising Sun Hall, had actually united many rebellious forces of all sizes in the East Pole and launched an attack on the Yellow Maple Sect and the Ling Yao Sword Sect.
Regarding this news, Xiao Shencong and the Heartless Daoist, they, too, had obviously been informed.
This caused their faces, at once, to become extremely ugly.
How many years had it been?
Neither they, the East Pole nor the Central Domain, had suffered such a great loss?
This was really taking advantage of the fire.
In everyone’s eyes, a cold chill could not help but emerge.
However, in this situation, it was useless even if they were angry.
The other party had clearly seized this opportunity.
Let’s see if you guys want to return to help or not.
If back to help, Xiao Shencong they can already imagine, the other party will certainly be like the initial, at once run without a trace.
This kind of thing in the past, has long been more than once.
Only at this juncture right now, it made them feel even more like they were incomparably stifled and suffocated from the inside out.
“Second Prince ……”
At this time, the Pingyang Heavenly Monarch was clearly already somewhat unable to sit still.
Because in his thoughts, this battle, if their side still wanted to continue, it was obviously already unlikely.
If they insisted, there would only be one result, and that would be to make their side lose even more.
Since that was the case, it would be better to withdraw first and go and settle the matter of the native rebellion.
Otherwise, if there was no victory on this side of the battlefield, their side would be messed up by those rebel forces.
Then it would really be a defeat on both ends, and injuries on both ends.
“Everyone, what do you think?”
Xiao Shencong turned to look at the Heartless Daoist, Blade Heavenly Monarch, Xiao Shenji, and the Upper Channelers present.
Several people had obviously lost any battle spirit at this time as well.
Especially Xiao Shenji and Shangdao Daoist.
Without their physical bodies, what they were most concerned about right now wasn’t war, but rather how to recover from the injuries they had sustained and make up for their lost longevity.
Other than that, they didn’t want to care, nor could they.
“I think that hustling the outside world is still the first thing to do.”
At this time, the Heartless Daoist was suddenly speaking leisurely.
“The East Pole’s Rising Sun Hall, they’ve existed long enough.
I think this time, if it is possible, we should first try to do our best to resolve this hidden danger.”
Hearing Daoist Heartless’s words, Heavenly Monarch Pingyang was the first to nod in agreement.
If this time, they could borrow the power of the Central Domain to completely resolve the hidden danger of the Hall of the Rising Sun, that would more or less be considered a consolation.
“I have no opinion.”
At this moment, the Blade Heavenly Monarch on the side faintly spoke.
Hearing his words, Xiao Shenji and the Upper Channeler, both nodded as well.
Thus, Xiao Shencong didn’t insist anymore.
“Since everyone thinks so, then let’s withdraw to the East Pole first and settle the hidden dangers that exist in the East Pole.”
Soon.
Jiang Chengxuan and the others then noticed that the cultivators from the East Pole and the Central Domain began to withdraw.
Jiang Chengxuan and the rest of them were obviously a bit surprised, not expecting the other side to choose to withdraw so quickly.
“If my guess is right, it should be that something unexpected has happened at their rear.”
At that moment, he heard Dongfang Tianxing speak thoughtfully.
Hearing his words, Jiang Chengxuan and the others reacted.
The other party had withdrawn in such a hurry.
Apart from having suffered a heavy blow, it should be that, as Dongfang Tianxing had said, there was some sort of problem at their rear.
“Then we take over, are we going to pursue, or ……?”
Murong Xian tried to speak.
Then he saw Dongfang Tianxing shake his head.
“I suggest it’s best not to chase.
Nowadays, although they have been heavily injured, they are not without the power to counterattack and fight, and if we really push them to the brink, none of us can guarantee that there are still any hidden cards among them.
Fellow Daoist Jiang, what do you think?”
With these words, Dongfang Tianxing had already turned his gaze, towards Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan several people looked at each other.
Eventually, they saw Jiang Chengxuan nod his head and said:
“I agree with Fellow Daoist Dongfang.
After this time, if they want to attack the Western Desert and Northern Border in the future as they did this time, it’s already not that easy.
Let’s not talk about anything else.
When that time comes, I’m afraid that this Heavenly Demon Sea will become the biggest barrier to their advancement.
Of course.
This place, likewise, will become a territory that threatens us.”
“Well, fellow Daoist Jiang, what do you mean ……?”
Murong Xian’s expression moved as if he had thought of something.
Then he saw Jiang Chengxuan nod his head.
“Not bad, the next thing we have to consider is the threat from the Demon Race.
After all, when the protection period passes, the Demon Race will definitely not be idle anymore.
They will definitely make very large movements after having already been building up their strength for such a long time.
Especially this Heavenly Demon Seas.
Although we have used it as a battlefield, we have accordingly formed an extremely deep karma with the demon race here.
When the time comes, they will inevitably look for trouble from us.
So.
Before that, we need to further, fortify the defenses here.”
After hearing these words from Jiang Chengxuan, the people present, could not help but nod in agreement.
Taking over.
Jiang Chengxuan, as well as Shen Ruyan and the others, didn’t leave this war fortress at this point, but instead, all of them stayed behind to closely observe the movements of the East Pole and the Central Domain’s side.
After all, the current them, although they had made a move to withdraw.
But no one could guarantee that it would not be just a blindfold for them.
It was necessary to make sure that nothing was wrong.
Just like that, time flashed by for several more years.
During these years, Jiang Chengxuan and the others, indeed, had never seen any more traces of the East Pole and Central Domain cultivators.
This was something they could very much confirm.
Most importantly, through their eyes everywhere, they had learned with certainty that Xiao Shen Cong and the others who had left had gone to the East Pole and, at the East Pole, had broken out into a great battle with the Rising Sun Hall there.
Fortunately, the Rising Sun Hall had prepared for this, which prevented them from being annihilated by Xiao Shen Cong in one fell swoop.
And, the stronghold they were in was extremely secretive.
Even though Xiao Shencong and the others had used all their power, they hadn’t really dug out their hiding place.
Since then, Jiang Chengxuan and the others finally determined that Xiao Shencong and his party had, indeed, evacuated this region.
And so.
Jiang Chengxuan, Shen Ruyan, Heavenly Monarch Changshan, and Heavenly Monarch Wanhai did not continue to stay here.
Some time later, the four of them finally returned to the Northern Borderlands with their respective people.
Just after returning to the Northern Borderlands, the four of them suddenly received a transmission from Heavenly Monarch Xuan Yang.
The matter was about the Violet Flame Heavenly Monarch.
According to Heavenly Monarch Xuan Yang, just a short while ago, Heavenly Monarch Violet Yan’s injuries suddenly erupted.
It was already on the verge of being suppressed.
This immediately caused the four Jiang Chengxuan’s faces to change.
They also didn’t expect that they had only just returned to the Northern Border when they heard such bad news.
At that moment, the four of them didn’t dare to be the slightest bit slow, and immediately headed in the direction of the Purple Sun Palace.
When they arrived at the Violet Sun Palace and saw the Violet Yan Heavenly Monarch, the hearts of all four of them sank violently.
Only to see that at this moment, the Purple Inferno Heavenly Monarch, up and down his body, was permeated with a rotten aura.
His hair was white and his skin was wrinkled.
The entire person had completely turned into a twilight state.
Even some of the dao rules on his body were vaguely on the verge of having signs that they could not be locked up, and had the tendency to start spreading out soon.
This moment.
The faces of Jiang Chengxuan’s four people all became incomparably heavy.
