Chapter 570: A Man Should Spill Blood on the Battlefield, Drunk and Raising His Sword to Pierce the Sun

Random Recommendation:

Tu Ming, who had grasped divine abilities, was a being known as a True Monarch among Nascent Soul cultivators.He himself held a high and influential position, serving as the Grand Priest of the Hundred Poisons Tribe. The Azure Moon Tribe, the Ancient Vine Tribe, and the Hundred Poisons Tribe were the three largest barbarian tribes in the Thousand Peaks Forest, each boasting a population of around a million.However, in the entire campaign of the Thousand Peaks Forest, Tu Ming's contributions were few, his achievements pitiful. He had only shown some promise in the initial ambush battle.He felt greatly wronged. Were it not for Shen Qinghe's terrifying restraint, he would undoubtedly have achieved more.Alas, reality was reality. Tu Ming's life hung by a thread, and he could only hope for reinforcements.Yet, almost everyone in the Hundred Poisons Tribe specialized in poison arts, making them as vulnerable as chicks before Shen Qinghe. Hadn't she slaughtered everyone in the vast Poison Pool Mountain?Shen Qinghe utterly detested all poison cultivators in the world and had always sought to hunt down Tu Ming. At this moment, she meticulously searched the mountain, acre by acre, giving Tu Ming no chance of escape.Seeing the Azure Spirit Dharma Light about to shine upon him, Tu Ming could not help but fall into despair.But Shen Qinghe's movements paused slightly.She had received a flying letter, which spoke of the shocking change on the main battlefield."What? Commander Du was once again stabbed by Young Master Sheng Xu, his injuries so severe that he can only withdraw the army?"Shen Qinghe's first reaction was disbelief, suspecting it was a stratagem by Tu Ming and other enemies to trick her into withdrawing.But the aura of the Two-Realm Nation's power emanating from the seal on the flying letter was genuine, extremely difficult to fake. "It seems this Tu Ming's fortune is not yet exhausted," Shen Qinghe sighed in her heart, then transformed into a beam of azure light, quickly flying away from Poison Pool Mountain.The reason she could penetrate deep into the Thousand Peaks Forest was because the Two-Realm Nation's grand army was holding the central area, providing Shen Qinghe with space to act.Now that the grand army was gradually withdrawing, the reaction speed of the Thousand Peaks Forest Allied Army was unpredictable. If they reacted,and organized a counterattack, Shen Qinghe would be as if she were in the enemy's camp, which would be very dangerous.Fearing being surrounded, Shen Qinghe could only retreat.

The defeated forces of the Thousand Peaks Forest gathered in one place."Lord Long! Wuwuwu—." Many soldiers covered their faces and wept, their grief and hatred intertwined.The death of the commander led to widespread sorrow among the remaining forces.Not only Lord Long, but the Dragon King Temple faction, as the main force in this battle, also suffered the most severe losses in terms of troops.Chen Lingfeng was being carried, already in a state of coma. From time to time, his body would twitch violently, white foam bubbling from the corners of his mouth, his eyes rolled back, wide open, unable to close no matter how hard they tried.This was the price of overusing his innate talent.The latest intelligence reached Lu Hongtu's hands. At first, he couldn't believe it. After confirming it was correct, he then shouted and announced the matter to everyone.The faces of the officers and soldiers were blank.After they reacted, cheers gradually arose, scattered and sparse.Among them, some cultivators proactively suggested taking advantage of the situation to counterattack, but few responded.More people refuted, saying that although Du Tiechuan was injured, he was not killed in action after all. Returning to fight, their side would still face the powerful Two-Realm Nation army. What was the difference from before?The difference was that Lord Long had already died in battle!Who could hold up the overall situation?Lu Hongtu saw the reactions of the crowd and shook his head in his heart: "The morale of the army is difficult to use."Even if Young Master Sheng Xu achieved merit, Du Tiechuan was severely injured and voluntarily withdrew the army, it was difficult to change the morale of the Thousand Peaks Forest Allied Army. The latter generally had low fighting spirit and were more inclined to rest and cease hostilities."Unless I step forward and forcibly organize an army. Or Xiang Yue would also do—"However, our two's rallying power can only affect a small portion and cannot be compared with Lord Long at all.""Forget it.""Such a result is actually very good!"Lu Hongtu was happy to see such a development.In this battle, he had gained many military merits, widely spread his reputation, and forged good relationships with cultivators and forces from all sides.It could be said that in terms of diplomacy, he and the Six Caves Sect had achieved tremendous improvement in the Thousand Peaks Forest.In terms of spoils of war, Lu Hongtu had also gained a lot.Overall, the gains were greater than the losses.The Six Caves Sect's greatest loss was in the Demon Heart Cave Lord's faction. The Demon Heart Cave Lord's beloved son, Lin You, died in battle, and the Cave Lord himself only escaped with his Nascent Soul.As for the Blood Shadow Cave Lord and the Poison Exhaustion Cave Lord, they were indeed the individuals Lu Hongtu had carefully selected. The two fiercely fought on the front line and both survived."The two God Transformation level combatants sent by the Two-Realm Nation this time are one dead and one injured, and they will not raise troops again in a short time.""The Ginseng Beard Dragon King chose to attack the Old Monster in Stone, highlighting his hostility. Although it is not the true Old Monster in Stone, in essence, the Thousand Peaks Forest has already fallen into internal strife.""The upper level forces have suffered massive losses, creating a standoff, and are unable to attend to others. Isn't this precisely the opportune moment for my Six Caves Sect to greatly expand and continue to rise?"Lu Hongtu assessed the major forces in the Thousand Peaks Forest.The largest faction, the Dragon King Temple, suffered the most severe losses. Lord Long, as the public face of the Dragon King Temple, his death was a great loss to the Dragon King Temple.Among Lord Long's former trusted aides, Wu Hen had been captured alive, and although Chen Lingfeng survived, due to his own chaos, he caused considerable trouble and losses to his own army, lost trust, made enemies in many places, and his reputation plummeted.Under these circumstances, Lord Long's political legacy was not inherited by anyone in his own faction, and it strangely shifted to an outsider—Xiang Yue!Therefore, Lu Hongtu estimated: "Xiang Yue has received Lord Long's legacy, and his personal strength has greatly increased. Moreover, his performance in the second grand battle has earned him much respect and recognition. He will be the representative among demon cultivators.""And I, will be the leader of human cultivators in the Thousand Peaks Forest.""The barbarian forces have suffered heavy losses!""The Ancient Vine Tribe's Azure Vine Doctor died in battle, only his Nascent Soul escaped. Di from the Azure Moon Tribe died earlier, not even his Nascent Soul remained. Only Lone Tooth remains to hold up the overall situation. As for the Hundred Poisons Tribe——""I wonder if Tu Ming is dead? If he died at Shen Qinghe's hands, then the Hundred Poisons Tribe will also head towards a complete decline and must give up many of their original territories.""Even if he didn't die, based on his performance in this battle, he was defeated almost every time, and his reputation has greatly declined."The more Lu Hongtu thought about it, the more his heart burned with excitement.The existing forces, which originally occupied many territories, had experienced a significant decline in strength.The Six Caves Sect and the Pale Barbarian Cultivators, benefiting from the war, were bound to rise!

"Military Advisor Lu, if I join your sect, what can I gain?" A divine sense message was secretly transmitted to Lu Hongtu.It was Li Jiuyi!This Gu cultivator was countered by Mo Yechen's mynah bird in the grand battle, losing many Gu worms, and both his strength and reputation declined significantly.He also saw the rising trend of the Six Caves Sect and actually proactively requested to join."With such a powerful demonic cultivator joining, my Six Caves Sect's strength is bound to greatly increase!" Lu Hongtu couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised.He was just about to lead his subordinates to achieve great things, and before he even took action, he had a great opening success.It was truly wonderful!

Meanwhile, in another place—Nascent Soul True Monarch Bai Ling leaned against a pine tree, looking at the cultivators around him.They were Ju Bing, Qian Ye, and Jin Tunhe.Bai Ling slowly opened his mouth: "I have gathered you here because we are all demon cultivators."Bai Ling himself was originally a white crane, Ju Bing was a wild boar, Qian Ye was a fox, and Jin Tunhe was a toad.Ju Bing and Qian Ye focused their attention on Bai Ling, while Jin Tunhe yawned, his eyes hazy with sleep. He had eaten too much in this battle and needed to continue hibernating to quickly digest it.Bai Ling glanced at Jin Tunhe: "I will keep it brief. Although the Two-Realm Nation's grand army retreated in this major battle, their strength was well preserved.""Our side has already been defeated twice on the main battlefield. The recent one resulted in even more severe losses.""You and I are demon cultivators, we like freedom and living independently. But in the future, I'm afraid the Two-Realm Nation will raise troops again. At that time, will our Thousand Peaks Forest still have such good fortune?"Ju Bing directly asked: "So, Lord Bai Ling, what do you intend to do?"Bai Ling smiled slightly: "It's very simple. We must join hands and help each other."Qian Ye: "Should we contact the Elephant King? He is also a demon cultivator."Bai Ling was silent for a moment: "Xiang Yue's whereabouts are currently unknown, but based on his strength, unless he encountered a God Transformation level being. Let's discuss it first, then we will contact him."

Rumble rumble...Xiang Yue chased after Ning Zhuo all the way. With every step he took, the ground trembled, rumbling, stones and soil flew, and dust rose.His divine sense transmitted: "Little brat Ning Zhuo, where else do you intend to flee? Stop quickly and tell me the matter. If you dare to be evasive, I will surely tear you in half!"Ning Zhuo, however, said: "Elephant King, don't be in a hurry. This place is still close to the battlefield. Let's go a little further; it will be safer and more secure."Xiang Yue was already impatient: "You've said this several times. Do you think this king is easy to fool? Stop for me!"Saying so, Xiang Yue suddenly attacked, employing martial arts, his speed greatly increasing. In just a few steps, he caught up to Ning Zhuo's back.He extended his large hand, directly grabbing towards the back of Ning Zhuo's neck. If he grasped firmly, Ning Zhuo would be lifted up like a little chick.At the critical moment, a voice suddenly sounded: "Elephant King, calm down."Zhu Xuanji suddenly appeared and fiercely clashed with Xiang Yue head-on.The two each took a step back, forming a standoff.Xiang Yue looked at Zhu Xuanji with a look of surprise: "A mere Golden Core, and you can match me evenly? Who are you?!"Several divine abilities on Zhu Xuanji's body quietly vanished. He shook his numb fist: "I am a member of the Southern Bean Nation's royal family, Zhu Xuanji."Xiang Yue thought for a moment: "Southern Bean Divine Constable?"He clenched his fist: "Again!"Xiang Yue's muscles bulged, he employed martial arts, and blood flames burned on his fist, swinging it again.Zhu Xuanji was not afraid. His divine abilities advanced, and for a time, golden light enveloped his body, and jade energy spread. Within the golden energy, mountains and forests were faintly visible, every tree with golden branches and jade leaves, magnificent and noble.The two clashed again, both retreating, evenly matched.Xiang Yue had a solemn expression, all because Zhu Xuanji used only his physical body, divine abilities, and so on to resist him, without using any magical treasures or national artifacts."Although I didn't use my full strength, it was close.""The crucial point is that for two consecutive times, both Zhu Xuanji and I each took a step back. What does this mean?""It means that he also didn't use his full strength, but only accurately judged my strength and then used the same strength!"Thinking of this, Xiang Yue let out a low exclamation: "Good."He unclenched his fist, letting his arms fall naturally, and quickly acknowledged Zhu Xuanji: "Was my encounter with Hong Feng arranged by the Southern Bean Nation?"Zhu Xuanji: "Elephant King, all of this was just a coincidence, and my Southern Bean Nation simply went with the flow, placing an idle chess piece."Xiang Yue's heart sank. Zhu Xuanji's frank admission forced him to re-examine the lover he had been thinking about day and night, "Hong Feng—." Xiang Yue was a passionate character, moreover, Hong Feng was carrying his child in her belly.The Pale Barbarian Elephant tribe's reproduction was difficult. Xiang Yue had repeatedly sought Elephant Pulse Fertility Pills for the sake of the tribe's continuation.And there was a rule in this world that the higher the cultivation level of a being, the more difficult it was to procreate bloodline descendants.Xiang Yue, as the Elephant King, with the superposition of these two factors, had a very low possibility of procreating offspring. He could not not pursue his lover and child!"Alas!" Xiang Yue sighed deeply, glanced at Ning Zhuo, and fixed his gaze on Zhu Xuanji, "What does your Southern Bean Nation want this King to do?""Wait a moment." Ning Zhuo suddenly waved his hand, "I will take my leave first. You two distinguished gentlemen can talk slowly."Although Ning Zhuo had a close relationship with Zhu Xuanji, and the Zhu family of the Southern Bean royal family and the Ning family also had an alliance, Ning Zhuo had never lost sight of the proper boundaries.Zhu Xuanji represented the Southern Bean Nation and was making arrangements in the Thousand Peaks Forest. This was a national secret, and Ning Zhuo did not want to know too much.But Zhu Xuanji said: "It's alright."Ning Zhuo gave a wry laugh, but still chose not to stay, and voluntarily retreated.Zhu Xuanji showed a confident and composed smile: "Ning Zhuo, it's alright if you don't want to listen, but don't be in a hurry to leave. I have news of your mother. And this information is extremely valuable to you."Ning Zhuo was stunned. After reacting, his expression changed dramatically, unable to conceal his excitement: "Is what Lord Zhu said true?"This time it was Xiang Yue who gave a wry smile: "Is this the way of the Southern Bean Nation's Divine Constable?"He was caught by the handle and had to comply. Seeing that Ning Zhuo was also caught by his weakness, he couldn't help but feel less hostile towards the latter and seized the opportunity to mock Zhu Xuanji.Ning Zhuo, however, did not feel much ill will towards Zhu Xuanji, but instead felt grateful: "Old Zhu is one of the few people who knows my true purpose. I didn't expect him to secretly gather information for me and do so many things. He is indeed Old Zhu, a good person."Ning Zhuo still voluntarily withdrew, allowing Zhu Xuanji and Xiang Yue to have a private conversation.He came to a mountainside and looked out at the mountain scenery.The lingering sunset, the setting sun like blood.This grand battle began in the early morning and lasted until evening.Just then, a strong mountain wind blew, stirring the pine waves among the mountains like a rolling tide, and also blowing Ning Zhuo's long hair and fluttering clothes.The light of the sunset illuminated Ning Zhuo's entire body.Ning Zhuo was wearing a white robe stained with blood. He had just emerged from a major battle, his entire body was still boiling with blood, his eyes were shining, and he was full of energy.At this moment, recalling the scenes on the battlefield, thinking of the life-and-death struggle between the enemy and ourselves, the various characters appearing one after another, each displaying their abilities, it was wonderful and diverse.Princess Ingenuity was willing to be the mainstay, Muran's Divine Arrow was fierce and pressing, Xu Dali fought hard, Zhao Xi cleverly fled, Lord Long fought to the death and sacrificed himself, Xiang Yue crushed everything, Li Jiuyi was sinister and poisonous, Chen Lingfeng went berserk and became demonized, Jin Tunhe's talent was extraordinary, Lu Hongtu was mature and steady, Ding Pi Jia Wan contained murderous intent, Du Tiechuan's God Transformation power, Young Master Sheng Xu overturned the battlefield—There was also the Fire Cloud Camp which incinerated countless enemies, the White Jade Camp was completely annihilated, the Three Generals Camp became more seasoned, the Red Flower Camp achieved numerous victories—All these things flowed through his mind like a revolving lantern, stirring up his emotions, and he couldn't help but let out a light whistle.The少年's whistle echoed in the mountains and forests, causing another gust of mountain wind to rise from the ground, rolling up a vast azure sea."Without traveling, how can one personally experience such a wonderful life?""I still want to experience a battlefield like this.""Fighting with various heroes, in life-and-death battles, racking one's brains and exerting one's full strength to display one's own brilliance, and also witnessing the highlights of others, is like drinking a strong wine, making one involuntarily intoxicated.""Boss, I suddenly understand you."Ning Zhuo sent a divine sense message to Sun Lingtong: "Is this the excitement you seek?"Sun Lingtong was suddenly inspired, his eyes rolling: "This is called: A man should shed blood on the battlefield, drunkenly brandishing a sharp blade to pierce the sun's glory."Ning Zhuo chuckled: "It's rare for Boss to be in a poetic mood."Sun Lingtong giggled and called out: "I only thought of that one line."Ning Zhuo: "Then I will complete it for you, Boss."He thought for a moment, and in just three breaths, he low chanted: "Divine arrow shatters clouds, fire illuminates the sunset glow. Wild saber drinks blood, iron gives birth to flowers. Three armies thunder, crushing mountains and peaks. A single whistle, wind gallops, rolling up yellow sand. A hundred battles, why shun the body turning to ashes? A thousand tribulations, the spirit remains boundless. A man should shed blood on the battlefield, drunkenly brandishing a sharp blade to pierce the sun's glory!"As soon as the words fell, Zhu Xuanji appeared and praised in unison: "Good poem!"
