I Have A Qi Fortune Altar-Chapter 1537 - 738: Face the Battle! Face the Battle! (Part 2)

"King Yan is right! We anticipated the invasion of the Demon Race long ago. It's just a battle; they have Demon Gods, and we also have Immortals.

They have a million demon soldiers, but under our command, we have hundreds of thousands of elite warriors and millions of Shuzhou and South State citizens as our support. What do we have to fear?

Our names will be engraved in history through this battle!"

Chu Changfeng's gaze intensified, he spoke with firm resolve.

"Good!"

Jiang He nodded.

"Though Biyou Palace has no Immortals, it does possess some foundations. In such peril for the Human Race, this humble Taoist will not be stingy. If the Demon Race comes, we shall make them stay!"

Zhao Danqing smiled calmly. After all, being a thousand-year legacy Immortal Sect, there are always some foundations.

Ling Xu Taoist chuckled bitterly and said:

"This humble Taoist has only one Slaughter Immortal Sword left, the foundations exhausted at Purple Gold Mountain. However, my disciples of Shushan ultimately have some who are not afraid to die.

When the time comes, we may battle to the death for the Human Race!"

Everyone expressed their stance, elevating the atmosphere in the great hall to an intense level.

Chen Yuan nodded, stood up, and continued:

"It's just a battle, a life-and-death battle, which we have faced before. But, some preparations need to be made."

"Please give the order, King Yan!"

Everyone stood up in unison.

"First, spread the news of the Demon Race's million-strong army marching north in the shortest time possible through South State, throughout the world. Tell all South State citizens, martial artists, officials, that once the Demon Race breaches Zhen Nan Pass, not a single blade of grass will remain in South State, and everyone will become blood food slaves. Urge them to contribute all resources to resist the demon invasion.

Meanwhile, to prevent anyone from escaping, set twelve barriers at the Southern Shu border. From today, only southbound passage is allowed, and no one, no force is permitted to head north.

Order all troops at Zhen Nan Pass to prepare for battle, make all arrangements, mobilize the respective armies from each South State prefecture to bolster the troop capacity, and draw ten thousand elite soldiers from Shuzhou to Zhen Nan Pass.

Additionally, all Shushan disciples, Yan King Mansion affiliates, and all Jianghu forces, gather at Zhen Nan Pass for a decisive battle to the death against the Demon Race!"

Chen Yuan emanated killing aura all around.

Previously, he divided his forces into two, wary of Xiang Qianqiu making a sudden move, defending reluctantly, but now, relying only on these forces is absolutely insufficient to bar the Demon Race.

All forces must be united to stand a chance.

"This.... Deploying all of Shuzhou's forces to South State, what if Xiang Qianqiu or other forces launch a surprise attack on Shuzhou?" Ling Xu Taoist frowned.

Chen Yuan looked at Ling Xu Taoist and spoke word by word.

"If we preserve land while losing people, both land and people will be lost; if we preserve people while losing land, both people and land will be gained!

Spread the news of the Demon Race invasion to all forces in the world, tell them they don't need to come help with the battle. I, Chen Yuan, alone can block these demons. But, should anyone dare take advantage of the Demon Race moving north to strike Shuzhou or South State, don't blame me for being ruthless, abandoning Zhen Nan Pass to let the Demon Race move north.

Moreover, whoever dares make a move, I will lead all forces personally to hunt them down at any cost!

Tell them I, Chen Yuan, mean what I say. Anyone who doubts, feel free to try!" 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶

Everyone in the great hall was shocked by Chen Yuan's words. They didn't expect Chen Yuan to be so decisive and possess such great courage, to abandon Shu Central entirely and direct all forces to South State.

Here, they would engage in a decisive battle against the Demon Race army, winner takes all, loser becomes a bandit!

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

...

...

Under the frantic mobilization of Chen Yuan's forces, the news of Southern Border's million demon army set to move north to Central Plains rapidly spread throughout South State, causing a vast sensation.

Countless people panicked, wanting to flee north to avoid the Demon Race's iron hoof, but unfortunately, they could only imagine.

Because Chen Yuan had ordered South State sealed, no exit allowed, anyone caught would be executed. Even Chen Yuan, a foreigner, came here to share in South State's fate.

How could they remain uninvolved?

Some foresaw great benefits, crazily raising food prices, wanting to profit greatly during this time, but such people, once reported and verified, would face family and clan extermination, all possessions confiscated.

Of course, fear and greed are human nature. Naturally, there are also those who are fearless of death, upon hearing the news of the Demon Race army moving north.

They prepared supplies themselves and headed towards Zhen Nan Pass.

Gathering into a great procession.

The procession was filled with South State righteous warriors.

The invasion storm swept over South State, moving towards Shu Central. With Chen Yuan's order, affiliates of Yan King Mansion began migrating, and his women also converged on South State.

Eight hundred Shushan disciples descended the mountain to aid South State, leaving only two Yang Transformation True Masters and a group of recently inducted disciples at Shushan.

The Shuxi Alliance and Shu Central Alliance also began mobilizing. Some were afraid, secretly fled, or even colluded to rebel, but all were strangled by the Jinyi Guard.

All dissenting voices were suppressed within an extremely short time.

Regarding Chen Yuan's command, Tianxu Taoist, currently Shu Central's highest leader, remained silent for a long period, then found Chen Yuan's reasoning very sound and fully supported it.

Mobilizing some forces from Taixu Palace to converge in the Boundary Domain of South State.

Once South State and Shu Central moved, half the Southern region moved. The news couldn't and wouldn't remain hidden, quickly spreading worldwide.
