The years when I explored the fairyland.

Chapter 357: Battle, Victory

When Chu Zhou returned to the Red Dragon Palace again, the war here had ended.

Countless human soldiers and disciples of Xuanzhen Palace were cleaning up the battlefield, clearing corpses, searching for the wounded, and executing hidden enemies.

The demons don't count, they are just a bunch of crazy lunatics, but there are many ghosts who are pretending to be dead.

For the human race, those who do not surrender immediately are all enemies. Naturally, they must be found and killed!

The entire Red Dragon Palace has almost become a ruin. Perhaps only the Immortal Peach Tree, which is the core of the cave, and the Tianmen and Ruyimen, which are the key defense areas, are still intact.

In other places, there were remnants of fighting everywhere, including marks from swords and spears, fire, flooding, ice and poisonous water.

If the Red Dragon Palace is to be rebuilt, I don’t know how much effort it will take.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the Immortal Palace formation was not completely damaged, and the palace was still suspended in the air with no risk of falling.

Then there is the earth in all directions, which is even more miserable, with abyssal ruins, broken mountains and rivers, destroyed forests, and cut-off rivers...

The land looked like ruins, which really made Chu Zhou feel heartbroken!
These were all his, and now they were ruined like this, he really wanted to kill someone.

When Chu Zhou was examining the battlefield, he did not conceal his figure, so he was naturally discovered by others. The soldiers and immortal cultivators below exclaimed in surprise.

After a while, Xu Cheng, Yi Huai, Fan Tiehu, Wei Fangjie and Xiao Ji all came out of nowhere.

Xiaoji's injuries have not yet healed. His face is pale and his breath is weak, but his overall mental state is very good.

The five people came closer and called out "Big Brother" respectively. There was excitement, guilt, joy, and more bitterness in their voices...

As the second senior brother, Xu Cheng took the lead and said, "Senior Senior Brother, I didn't think this matter through. I should have listened to you and played it safe.

If we had not underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, we would not have given the extraterritorial demon Daban a chance, and we would not have caused such a disaster!"

"Big Brother, if you want to blame someone, blame me!"

After he said this, Yi Huai, Fan Tiehu and Wei Fangjie could no longer sit still. They all took a step forward and spoke.

"Big Brother, Big Brother, don't blame Second Brother, I am also responsible for this.

You know me, I always like to charge ahead, and every time I have to get involved in a battle, I am the most active. "

This is Yi Huai’s speech.

Fan Tiehu also said: "Big Brother, all actions were decided by us together, if you want to hold us accountable, then hold us accountable too.

This matter really can't be blamed entirely on Second Senior Brother."

Wei Fangjie also said: "Big Brother, what Second Brother said is not right. We did it together. How can he be the only one to bear the responsibility?"

Xiaoji, on the other hand, was well versed in the art of changing the subject. He pointed at Bingluan Caihong and asked, "Master, who is this beautiful lady? Can you introduce her to us?"

"STOP STOP!!!"

Chu Zhou's head hurt from their noise, so he quickly interrupted them loudly: "Shut up!"

After a loud shout, the noise finally died down. Chu Zhou looked at the people who were blushing and asked, "Who wants to criticize you?"

"What I want to say is that you have done a great job during this period, very good, much better than I imagined!"

"Although I told you to focus on stability, how can I know what the future holds?"

"You have done a great job by being able to break away from the cage I have set for you, have your own ideas, and guide planning based on actual conditions."

"Especially the shop you opened in Wanxian City. It has opened up a new source of income for Xuanzhen Palace. I couldn't do that!"

"So, don't underestimate yourself, you are doing really well!"

Chu Zhou's words were indeed from the bottom of his heart, and not just a simple way to comfort them.

He actually looks forward to the growth of his junior fellow apprentices, especially to the point where they can stand on their own.

However, with Chu Zhou around, they had some support in their hearts, so no matter how hard they tried, they always felt that something was missing.

But this time, he was away for a long time, and Xuanzhen Palace not only did not have any trouble, but also experienced three years of great development and explosive growth.

These were all excellent experiences for them, and were the three years of their growth.

Now, no matter where they are placed or where they are stationed, Chu Zhou can rest assured.

That’s not even counting Xiaoji’s pleasant surprise.

In the blink of an eye, the little girl had grown to a certain height, and her calmness and composure even made him look at her with new eyes.

After hearing Chu Zhou's words, the five of them fell silent. They looked at each other, and Xu Cheng spoke up: "Big Brother, you are not saying this to comfort us, are you?"

Chu Zhou rolled his eyes and said, "If you don't do well, I will hit you directly, just like this!"

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and slapped the four men on the head like lightning. The force was not strong, but the four men all shrank their heads and cried out in pain.

But his expression was relaxed.

"well, let's get back to business!"

Chu Zhou waved his hand and said, "Let me introduce this to you first. This person is from the Phoenix Clan, Bingluan Caihong, a good friend that your senior brother met in the Ice and Snow Secret Realm."

"You guys, just call her 'sister'!"

"These are my junior brothers and sisters who I brought up. I have told you about them before."

Xu Cheng and the other four were quite smart and immediately bowed and saluted: "Hello, Sister Caihong!"

Bingluan Caihong maintained her aloof goddess demeanor, nodded slightly, and said, "Hello!"

Xu Cheng and the other four felt a sinking feeling in their hearts, thinking that this sister was difficult to get along with, but only Chu Zhou knew this.

Bingluan Caihong has never had any contact with other people and doesn't know how to communicate. She maintains a cold attitude as a protective color.

But Chu Zhou didn't have the time to pay attention to it. He thought that he would become familiar with it after more contact.

Now, it’s not over yet!
"Okay, we can talk about the pleasantries later. Right now, the situation must be under our control."

After a pause, he looked at Xiaoji and asked, "How is your injury?"

"It's okay, if you have any questions, just tell me!"

"Then you will stay in the Red Dragon Palace. I will leave the cleaning of the battlefield to you. I need to know the details of this battle and the losses of my Xuanzhen Palace!"

"Yes!"

"Xu Cheng?"

"Elder brother, I'm here."

"You enter the Great Illusionary Realm and take charge of the Alliance of All Beings. Through the Alliance of All Beings, you connect with various battlefields, arrange the dispatch of personnel and materials, and do your best to do the logistics work."

"Yes!"

"Yi Huai?"

"Big Brother, I'm here!"

"Go to the Rising Sun Plains, contact Baidi and Donghuang, and help them end the ghost invasion there."

"Big Brother, just wait and see!"

"Iron Tiger?"

"Big Brother, give your orders!"

"You are in charge of the demon clan battlefield in Tanggula Mountain and the sea clan battlefield in the south.

If they are willing to retreat, that's fine; if they are not willing to retreat, then we should stabilize the situation first and wait until other battlefields are free, then we can deal with them."

"it is good!"

Wei Fangjie hurriedly asked: "Big Brother, what about me?"

"You are naturally responsible for the ghost battlefield in Dayun."

"Okay!" Chu Zhou continued, "When the news spreads, the defeat of these alien races is a foregone conclusion, but it is hard to say whether there will be those who will resist stubbornly.

My request is very simple, first, clear out all the enemies in the human territory in the shortest possible time."

"Then, inform everyone that I want to meet with them in the Grand Illusionary Realm."

"Yes!"

When the order was given, everyone seemed to have found a backbone and started to work vigorously.

Chu Zhou took Bingluan, Caihong, and Fan Zhong and returned to Xuanzhen Palace outside Baisha City through Ruyi Gate.

On top of the solitary peak, he took Bingluan to sit under a big willow tree, brewed a pot of tea, ate a box of spiritual fruits, and enjoyed the gentle evening breeze, feeling a sense of peace and tranquility.

Of course, the prerequisite for a peaceful life is that someone is carrying the burden and moving forward.

The old ghost Chiyou was sealed and the demon Daban fled, which meant that the commander-in-chief of this war had been eliminated.

The subsequent battle situation cannot be said to be smooth sailing, but for the ghost clan, the situation was already hopeless.

Chu Zhou's many arrangements were designed to speed up this process.

When Xu Cheng and the other three arrived at their locations, communication and operations between them immediately became smooth.

Where can we gather troops, where can we draw supplies, where do we need support, where can we give up first...

After these were decided, the original efforts to hunt down the ghost clan instantly increased many times over.

Countless human soldiers and immortal cultivators rushed forward like a tide.

Not to mention those ghost immortals, even the first-level ghost kings are like castles on the beach, which will be destroyed in one pounce.

Even if there were some ghost immortals who were unwilling to give in, such as Mu Shang, who still wanted to struggle, they had no choice but to flee in panic under the powerful attack of the human race.

The Muchang Ghost Fairy City was made from the remains of his original body, but this time he was forced to abandon it.

The ghost immortal Mu Shang even fled into the Yintu when he had nowhere to escape, but the Yintu was not his home, and Si Yuanyou chased him like a madman.

It is said that he has taken the ferry across the River Styx and is preparing to go to the underworld.

As for whether he can escape, it depends on whether he is more capable or Si Yuanyou is more powerful.

Of course, in addition to this, there are also a lot of news like snowflakes, using the Taixu Illusion Realm as a springboard and falling into Fan Zhong's hands.

Finally, it was delivered to Chu Zhou.

As time goes by, news continues to come from all sides.

For example, Xiaoji's battle report was delivered first.

In this battle, Xuanzhen Palace lost thousands of disciples and countless others were injured, especially since many of them were choosing the secondary cultivation route.

Their loss will definitely hinder the rapid development of Xuanzhen Palace.

Of course, this is considered good!

This was because the relatively low casualties were entirely due to the major role played by the Asgard Guards and the Yellow Turban Warriors.

Because of the head-on attack from the demon army, the Fairy Palace guards lost hundreds of people, and the Yellow Turban warriors left in the Xuanzhen Palace were almost wiped out.

In addition, there were as many as one million soldiers and immortal cultivators coming to support from various human countries, of whom nearly 300,000 were killed and nearly 100,000 were seriously injured.

Those who were only slightly injured were almost everyone, and there are no statistics at all.

The result of their battle was that all 300,000 demon soldiers were captured, without any prisoners, but no one escaped either!

After this battle, the Pure World Red Lotus Society and the Xuan Yue Sect are likely to be completely wiped out.

As for Chiyou's million-strong ghost army, 400,000 were killed in the battle, 500,000 were captured, and the remaining 100,000 or so fled in all directions.

The ghost clan is not demons. They are controlled by Chiyou, but they wish Chiyou would die.

Seeing that Chiyou was sealed, they naturally fled quickly.

However, Xiaoji has already dispatched tens of thousands of ghost-catching experts to various places in the secret realm to catch ghosts and exorcise evil spirits.

Although the secret realm is large, it is the private land of Xuanzhen Palace. These ghosts are trapped like turtles in a jar and cannot escape for long.

This battle may not seem to last long, but it is no exaggeration to say that it was brutal.

If Chu Zhou hadn't suppressed it forcefully, the human race would have suffered greater sacrifices.

Apart from that, on the battlefield in the human world, there were frequent reports of victory, so much so that the entire human race was in a state of excitement.

Among the nine great ghost immortals of Zhou Juetian, the Eight Desolations had died long ago, and the Ten Earths followed suit.

In this battle, Akao was surrounded by humans and failed to break out several times, and was eventually captured.

The Red-Feathered Ghost Immortal escaped quickly. Rumor has it that he had appeared in Yintu, but now his whereabouts are unknown and the Ghost Immortal City has been left to the human race.

There is also the ghost immortal Mu Shang, who has already fled into the depths of the underworld.

Fire Tongs and Ice Ghost Fairy escaped back to Zhou Juetian. After all, the Rising Sun Plain was not far from Zhou Juetian.

However, they also paid a huge price for this.

The only ones who were truly intact and escaped successfully were the Ghost Immortal Lei Ze and the Ghost Immortal Jin Feng.

When two of the best ghost immortals join forces, they are truly powerful beyond imagination.

The human race also organized several blockades, especially when they crossed the Rising Sun Plains, Donghuang and Baidi, together with Si Yuanyou's ghost army, failed to stop them.

A strong person has the capital to be arrogant!

However, the merits outweigh the flaws. In this battle, the human race ultimately won with overwhelming force, like the sky falling down, crushing the enemy.

The defeat of the ghost clan is a foregone conclusion!

Of course, there were some discordant things. To the south of Dayan, the sea tribe did something big.

Fan Tiehu accepted Chu Zhou's order and was in charge of the affairs of the sea clan and the demon clan. Originally, everything was going smoothly.

The attitude of the demon tribe's tiger vanguard is very clear: don't hit me and I won't provoke you, and both sides live in peace.

It was also Tiger Vanguard's tact that gave Fan Tiehu the illusion that the sea people would also be so sensible.

So, when he saw the sea people retreating, he didn't think much about it.

Who would have known that not long after the sea tribe retreated, a violent storm hit the territory of Dayan and it didn’t stop for several days.

In the end, several mountain floods broke out in Dayan, destroying many dams, submerging hundreds of thousands of hectares of fertile farmland, and affecting millions of people.

At the beginning, Fan Tiehu hadn't reacted yet and only felt that the flood came suddenly.

But later it was discovered that it was actually a group of dragons arranged by the Dragon King of the South China Sea.

By taking advantage of the power of turning water into a dragon, the flood it caused killed countless people.

Fan Tiehu took action in anger and gathered thousands of Yellow Turban strongmen to kill all these wandering dragons.

However, the losses caused are unavoidable.

However, this incident also shows that the Dragon King of the South China Sea has an unpredictable temperament, otherwise, he would never do such a thing that harms others and does not benefit himself.

In general, the human race was the winner of this great war, and many hostile forces in the territory were wiped out one after another.

It is only a matter of time before the war comes to an end.

But at this moment, Chu Zhou convened a new war meeting in the Alliance of All Living Beings in the Taixu Illusionary Realm.

We have been fighting for so long, but we are still being beaten on our own territory. It’s so frustrating.

At this point, it is time for the human race to take the initiative.
