Chapter 518: Chapter 192: Defying Orders at Huqiu Mountain, Marching Straight to the Great Capital City_2
“Report—”
In the midst of blizzards, a rider hurriedly approached.
“Bring the intelligence, intelligence has arrived!”
Yuwen Jingwen spoke in a deep voice, “Speak, how many people have escaped from outside Liangzhou City by now?”
“At Huqiu Mountain, there are fifteen thousand men from Beiliang Hongze Camp.”
The soldier knelt in the snow, “At the edge of the Great Wall Barrier, roughly two to three thousand soldiers and horses are estimated, led by Ji, surmising he is leading two camps to meet with Hongze Camp at Huqiu Mountain.”
“So, you’re saying, within the Great Desert, there are now three camps?”
Yuwen Jingwen muttered pensively, “In such a snowstorm, they still dare to deploy troops outward, neglecting even their logistic supplies, whose idea? It must be Chen Sansi.”
He answered his own question.
Yuwen Xin calculated, “Three camps of soldiers, according to their structure, is roughly around forty-five thousand men. That’s no small number. Uncle, if they head towards You State, couldn’t that spell trouble?”
“Not a big problem.”
Yuwen Jingwen patiently explained the situation to his nephew, “In the corner of You State, most likely a breach has already been torn open, firmly defending Zhu Tuo Pass. Moreover, not only do my Heavenly Clan’s four divisions have one hundred and fifty thousand soldiers and a Martial Saint, but also an Immortal Master helps, so even if their three camps manage to arrive, just a single Martial Saint is fundamentally futile.”
“The most crucial point, nephew, you must not forget.”
“We don’t even need to win this battle, we just need to protect the Array Eye, delay time, wait until the Blood Sacrifice Array is completed, and after the Slaughter Vein revives, the rest will naturally be handled by the Immortal Masters of the Ancient Demon Clan.”
“So Uncle means…”
Prince Yuwen Xin seemed to understand but not quite, “Ignore them?”
“Let them be.”
Yuwen Jingwen spoke indifferently, “Even if the three camps truly go to You State, they are no more than a drop in the bucket.”
…
Huqiu Mountain.
Hongze Army Camp.
“Sir!”
“Look towards Liangzhou!”
“…”
“The Barrier?”
Chen Sansi ascended to the top of Cloud Tower, witnessing firsthand the whole process of the crimson blood mist enveloping Liangzhou.
Matters had become increasingly thorny.
It seemed that the issues within the Luotian Mountain Range were difficult to resolve.
The soldiers of Hongze Camp looked around in confusion.
Their families were still within the city; how could their thoughts not be in turmoil.
“Elder brother!”
Cao Zhi ascended to Cloud Tower and came next to him, “What should we do now?”
Chen Sansi did not answer.
He too was waiting.
Finally, in the midst of the blizzard.
The intelligence brought by the blue bird.
Reading the handwriting, it was personally written by Fourth Brother, Fang Qingyun.
In the letter.
Fang Qingyun, after communicating with his master, detailed the situation within the Luotian Mountain Range again.
“My Sixth Brother is in the city, and Father King is also in the city!”
Cao Zhi saw it distinctly, his voice somewhat trembling, “That means, after the Blood Sacrifice Array ends, won’t they all leave me?”
“Prince Yan, you should read it in full.”
Chen Sansi reminded, “After the Slaughter Vein revives, the Cultivators of the Ancient Demon Clan from the Cultivation World will be able to roam the heavens and earth, by then it won’t just be about the destruction of Liangzhou City.”
“Right right right, I understand.”
In just two breaths.
The expression on Cao Zhi’s face rapidly changed: surprise, excitement, agitation, loss, and finally to solemnity, “Elder brother, what should we do next? I have the map right here.”
He personally opened the map, “After merging with General Lv’s forces, should we immediately head to You State?”
“That might not be in time.”
Chen Sansi indicated for him to put away the map.
“Not in time?”
Cao Zhi asked, “Then, elder brother, do you have any better ideas?”
“Let’s wait until General Lv arrives and then decide.”
Chen Sansi estimated that, at most, half a day more, Xuanwu Camp and White Tiger Camp should also arrive.
He asked Cao Zhi to help organize the troops first while he himself found a secluded place, picked up his long spear, and practiced.
Martial Saint.
As the situation grew more severe, he must break through to the Martial Saint Realm before the final battle to gain a slight edge.
This stand might likely face an Immortal outright.
Martial Saint Realm.

To turn Mysterious Phenomenon Gang Qi into True Qi, even if it meant reaching the peak of the First Realm of Transcendence Realm, going beyond that would be above Martial Saint.
But how easy is this step?
Even though Chen Sansi had supreme talent and the aid of Spiritual Grain, it wasn’t something that could be achieved overnight.
Normally, it would still need half a year.
Which was exactly three years after arriving in Liangzhou.
The timeline set by his master back then.
[Cultivation Technique: National Guardian Dragon Spear. Martial Saint]
[Progress: 20/100]
After marching.
He would also carve out some time every day for practice. In real combat, his spear technique also improved, yet the progress was still merely one-fifth.
True Martial Pill!
Now it seems, if he wanted to speed up.
He must concoct the True Martial Pill.
Pill Furnace, materials he had them all, but now there wasn’t time.
He had to act according to circumstances.
Besides this.
There were various spells.
Ever since he knew his master had given him the Spirit Vein, he had been rushing to enhance them.
Improvement in spells, compared to the speed of “Five Elements Decision,” was much faster.
[Spell: Thick Earth Decision (entry-level)]
[Progress: 200/500]
…
[Magic: Ten Thousand Swords Arrival. First Rank]
[Progress: 258/1000]
After Sword Qi Skill had broken its limits, it transformed into Ten Thousand Swords Arrival.
Not just spells.
Chen Sansi also had some spoils of war obtained from the ends of the earth, a Golden Light Flying Knife, but only a first-rank low-grade magic tool, with an addition of two hundred Ghost Vein Arrows as his entire holdings.
Spells and magic tools.
Unless absolutely necessary.
He would not use them.
But now he had reached the brink of absolutely necessary.
He calculated the time was almost right, then returned to the camp, and within the time of a tea brewing, his subordinate came to report that Xuanwu Camp and White Tiger Camp had arrived.
…
You State.
Li City Prefecture.
This place.
Was the gateway to You State, where the great battle abruptly commenced.
