Chapter 207 Nascent Soul Battle: Withdrawal and Return to Defense (Please Subscribe)

As the saying goes, as long as the green mountains remain, there will be no shortage of firewood.

In Linghai Zhenjun's view, as long as he was safe, he didn't care if the capital city was destroyed.

He can organize manpower to rebuild it again in the future.

Although this time, Mingwu Zhenjun led his army to conquer their capital city, Xiancheng, causing great losses to Wuqi Kingdom.

However, Linghai Zhenjun believed that if one wanted to achieve great things, one should not be concerned about temporary gains or losses.

In his view, although Mingwu Zhenjun looked powerful and intimidating at the moment, he was only at the end of his rope.

As long as I don't confront him directly, but instead adopt an escape strategy, I can slowly wear him down.

By then, when their Xia Kingdom arrives, only the Northern Cold True Monarch will remain as a Nascent Soul cultivator.

He then joined forces with several nearby countries to conquer the capital city of Xia, kill the Northern Cold True Monarch, divide up a large portion of Xia's immortal territory, and then live and multiply for one or two hundred years.

At that time, their Wuqi Kingdom will be able to recover to its heyday, or even be stronger than it is now.

Therefore, upon seeing that True Monarch Mingwu had breached the protective array of their capital city, True Monarch Linghai naturally would not entangle himself with a dying man like True Monarch Mingwu.

Instead, he decisively abandoned the Chinese soldiers in the immortal city, used his escape technique, and chose to flee.

……

"Third brother, go after True Monarch Linghai. You don't need to fight him to the death, just keep him occupied."

Meanwhile, after breaking through the defensive formation of Wuqi Kingdom and rushing into their capital city, Immortal City, together with Beihan True Monarch, Mingwu True Monarch quickly locked onto Linghai True Monarch and Wanhe True Monarch with his divine sense.

Upon discovering the two individuals, they both decisively chose to flee.

Based on the strategy he had previously discussed with True Lord Beihan, True Lord Mingwu gave instructions to True Lord Beihan.

"Yes, Master..."

Upon hearing this, Bei Han Zhenjun thought of his master's next plan, and his heart sank. He then gritted his teeth and chased after Ling Hai Zhenjun.

Meanwhile, True Lord Mingwu swallowed a pill, used his escape technique, and chased after True Lord Wanhe.

Although in Mingwu Zhenjun's view, Linghai Zhenjun killed his sixth disciple, Chen Yuanxing.

However, according to Mingwu Zhenjun's understanding, Linghai Zhenjun's cultivation and strength are much stronger than Wanhe Zhenjun's.

Although he once reached the sixth level of the Nascent Soul Realm at his peak, he is now nearing the end of his lifespan and his bodily functions are almost exhausted. The strength he can exert is now only a fraction of what it used to be.

In this state, even if he were to risk his life and choose to self-destruct his nascent soul, he would still be in a precarious situation.

He wasn't entirely confident that he could kill the Spirit Sea True Monarch.

Especially when the other party is determined to escape.

Therefore, this time, in order to kill a Nascent Soul cultivator from Wuqi Kingdom and prevent Wuqi Kingdom from being able to deal with True Monarch Beihan in the future, they did so.

After some rational analysis, he had already discussed a countermeasure with True Lord Beihan.

He decided that after breaking through the defensive formation of Wuqi Kingdom, he would go and hunt down the weaker Wanhe Zhenjun.

Meanwhile, True Lord Bei Han was responsible for restraining True Lord Ling Hai to prevent him from joining forces with True Lord Wan He to deal with him.

This also prevents True Monarch Linghai from hunting down Yang Feng and other Nascent Soul Realm talents from the Xia Kingdom.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

As Nascent Soul cultivators, Mingwu Zhenjun and the others used their escape techniques to chase each other at an extremely fast speed.

In just a few breaths, the four of them, in a chase and a flight, disappeared from the sight of the soldiers of the two countries below.

"grass……"

"That old bastard actually chased after me..."

“It was clearly the Spirit Sea True Monarch who killed his disciple this time.”

"I never expected that this old bastard wouldn't chase after my senior brother, True Monarch Linghai, but instead came after me..."

"Does this mean they think I'm weak and easy to bully?"

When Wanhe Zhenjun, who had escaped from the capital city of Xiancheng, discovered that the person chasing him was Mingwu Zhenjun, he felt a surge of frustration and couldn't help but curse loudly.

Especially when he saw that Mingwu Zhenjun was significantly faster than him.

After being chased by Mingwu Zhenjun for a while, Wanhe Zhenjun watched as the distance between the two closed at a visible speed as time went by.

Wanhe Zhenjun estimated that if he continued to flee at this speed, he would probably be caught up soon.

He knew very well that once he was caught up by that True Lord Mingwu...

With his cultivation and strength at the second level of the Nascent Soul Realm, he is probably no match for that True Monarch Mingwu.

Especially since the other party's lifespan is nearing its end, if he intends to choose to perish together with him by self-destructing his nascent soul, then his life will probably be in danger as well.

Realizing this, True Monarch Wanhe had no choice but to grit his teeth and consume his own lifespan to use the Blood Escape Technique to speed up his escape.

"call out……"

Even so, Wanhe Zhenjun discovered that his speed was still not as fast as Mingwu Zhenjun's.

He then had no choice but to change direction and fly in the direction that his senior brother, True Lord Linghai, had just fled.

He attempted to catch up with his senior brother, Linghai Zhenjun, and join forces with him to fight against Mingwu Zhenjun behind him.

……

at the same time.

After escaping the capital city, the Immortal Lord Linghai discovered that the person chasing him was the True Lord Beihan.

He couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

Although, as far as he knew, this Northern Cold True Monarch's cultivation had long since reached the peak of the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm, and he was also much older than him.

However, his cultivation level has now reached the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm.

Even though their overall strength is slightly weaker than each other's, their cultivation levels are currently at the same level.

Therefore, in Linghai Zhenjun's view, he was definitely not in great danger of dying when facing Beihan Zhenjun.

Therefore, after escaping for some distance, True Lord Linghai stopped and looked at True Lord Beihan who was pursuing him.

I also wanted to take this opportunity to have a match with True Monarch Beihan.

Let's see how strong the other side really is.

“True Lord Bei Han, I have heard that you attempted to break through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm many times in your early years, but all of them ended in failure.”

"Now that you are over eight hundred years old, your physical functions are declining. I wonder how much of your strength you can still exert."

"It just so happens that a few years ago, my cultivation also reached the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm, and I would like to spar with you and learn from you..."

Linghai Zhenjun summoned his natal magic weapon, and after Beihan Zhenjun flew closer, he looked at Beihan Zhenjun and smiled faintly.

"it is good……"

"I also want to see your strength, Spirit Sea True Monarch, and see if you have the potential to break through to the mid-Nascent Soul Realm."

Upon hearing this, True Monarch Beihan looked at True Monarch Linghai and immediately summoned his own natal magic weapon to confront him.

As leaders of their respective countries, the two men have gained some understanding of each other's situation through their respective intelligence agencies over the years.

But this was still the first real meeting between the two.

Bei Han Zhenjun sensed that Ling Hai Zhenjun's cultivation had not yet reached the peak of the third level of the Nascent Soul Realm, so he was not afraid of the opponent.

They also wanted to take this opportunity to see how strong Linghai Zhenjun was overall... So the two flew up to the Nine Heavens and began their battle.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

"Bang bang bang..."

The two wielded their natal magical treasures, unleashed their spells and supernatural powers, and combined their respective understandings of the true meaning of the Great Dao to continuously engage in combat.

In an instant, dark clouds gathered and lightning flashed and thunder roared in the Nine Heavens region where the two were located, resembling a scene of tribulation.

However, since the two were evenly matched in cultivation and neither intended to fight to the death, their battle, though seemingly grand, was ultimately a stalemate where neither could gain the upper hand in the short term.

……

"Hey, there are people fighting in the Nine Heavens ahead."

"It seems to be Senior Brother Linghai Zhenjun and that Northern Han Zhenjun from Xia Kingdom."

At the same time, Wanhe Zhenjun consumed his own lifespan and used the Blood Escape Technique to fly continuously in the direction that Linghai Zhenjun had fled.

However, as time went by, he watched as he got closer and closer to Mingwu Zhenjun, and he became more and more anxious.

Fortunately, after a period of escape, he saw people fighting in the Nine Heavens ahead.

This gave him a glimmer of hope.

Immediately, they flew towards the Nine Heavens ahead, to the location where the two were fighting.

"Ok?"

On the other side, Linghai Zhenjun and Beihan Zhenjun were engaged in fierce combat when their divine senses suddenly detected their junior brother, Wanhe Zhenjun, flying rapidly toward their location.

A few breaths later, he discovered that True Monarch Mingwu was also pursuing him at an extremely fast speed.

"What do we do? That True Lord Mingwu is chasing after us..."

"To fight or to flee?"

Linghai Zhenjun's divine sense locked onto Mingwu Zhenjun and his junior brother Wanhe Zhenjun, who had rushed over.

Quickly weigh the pros and cons in your mind.

Given the current situation, if he chooses to join forces with his junior brother to deal with both Bei Han Zhenjun and Ming Wu Zhenjun...

Given Mingwu Zhenjun's strength and methods, under Beihan Zhenjun's restraint, the other party might very well choose to self-destruct his Nascent Soul to take them both down with him.

However, if he were to abandon his junior brother, Wanhe Zhenjun, and choose to escape alone...

Then his junior brother, Wanhe Zhenjun, will surely die when he faces a pincer attack from Beihan Zhenjun and Mingwu Zhenjun.

But once Wanhe Zhenjun dies.

At that time, with his strength alone, it would be virtually impossible for him to kill True Monarch Beihan.

If he cannot kill the Northern Cold True Monarch, annex most of the immortal city territory of the Xia Kingdom, and enhance the national fortune of the Wuqi Kingdom, given his current age and cultivation progress, his hope of breaking through to the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul Realm will be slim.

After weighing the pros and cons in his mind, True Lord Linghai...

He gritted his teeth and decided to join forces with his junior brother, True Monarch Wanhe, to deal with True Monarch Mingwu and True Monarch Beihan.

Although the arrival of Mingwu Zhenjun made him feel a certain threat.

But Linghai Zhenjun thought that if his junior brother died, he would lose the possibility of advancing further in this life.

Therefore, even if he and his junior brother were to join forces to deal with True Monarch Mingwu and True Monarch Beihan, and were likely to be seriously injured or even die, he decided to take the gamble.

……

at the same time.

Near the capital city of Wuqi Kingdom, Xiancheng.

The generals and soldiers of Xia Kingdom, along with Yang Feng and others, saw that after Mingwu Zhenjun and Beihan Zhenjun broke through the protective formation of the capital city of Wuqi Kingdom, they were chasing after the two Nascent Soul cultivators from Wuqi Kingdom who had fled.

Yang Feng, Zhao Qingting, Gu Xi, Li Chengxuan, and the other four Golden Core cultivators with the highest status in the Xia Kingdom did not lead the group of Core Formation cultivators and more than two million soldiers to invade the capital city of Wuqi Kingdom.

Instead, following the orders given in advance by True Lord Mingwu, they chose to withdraw their troops and return to the capital city of Xia as quickly as possible.

After all, the purpose of Mingwu Zhenjun leading his generals to attack Wuqi Kingdom's capital city, Xiancheng, was simply to use the strength of Xia Kingdom's generals to break through Wuqi Kingdom's capital city.

This would allow him to storm into the capital city of Wuqi Kingdom and kill one of its Nascent Soul cultivators.

After his death, Wuqi Kingdom will only have one Nascent Soul cultivator left.

At that time, Wuqi Kingdom will no longer be able to unite with the other nearby countries to jointly deal with their Xia Kingdom.

Moreover, this way, he can also give several disciples and create a stable environment for their cultivation for at least one or two hundred years to come.

At that time, as long as one of his three disciples still has the hope of achieving the Nascent Soul stage...

One person will be able to break through to the Nascent Soul realm before the Northern Cold True Monarch's lifespan ends.

Then their Xia Kingdom could continue for at least another hundred years or even several thousand years.

As for sending the Xia Kingdom's soldiers to invade the Wuqi Kingdom and engage in battle with them, in Mingwu Zhenjun's view, it would only increase the death toll of both countries and weaken his own country's strength, which would be of no benefit whatsoever.

Therefore, Mingwu Zhenjun would naturally not allow his many soldiers to invade the capital city of Wuqi Kingdom.

Especially now that their Xia Kingdom is vulnerable, and two other countries are amassing large armies, eyeing their army's movements from the Xia Kingdom's border.

In this situation, once the Xia Kingdom and the Wuqi Kingdom's generals and soldiers go to war in full force...

At that time, the other two countries will definitely take advantage of the situation and seize a large amount of immortal city territory on the border of Xia Kingdom.

……

And the other side.

On the side of Wuqi Kingdom, they saw that their capital city, Xiancheng, had been captured by Xia Kingdom.

Especially when they saw that the two Nascent Soul Realm kings of their Wuqi Kingdom had both chosen to flee.

They were initially in a state of panic, fearing that the more than two million soldiers of the Xia Kingdom would storm into the capital city of Xiancheng.

Many of them were even prepared to escape during the chaos.

As it turned out, they discovered that the Xia Kingdom had breached their capital, Xiancheng.

They actually chose to withdraw their troops directly.

This left them somewhat bewildered, but they also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Subsequently, countless civilians and soldiers in the capital city of Wuqi Kingdom quietly watched as the more than two million soldiers of Xia Kingdom evacuated.

It wasn't until a few days later, when the Core Formation generals of the Wuqi Kingdom's capital, Immortal City, sent out scouts and learned that all of the more than two million soldiers of the Xia Kingdom had withdrawn from Wuqi Kingdom's territory, that they were finally completely relieved.

"All soldiers, continue to increase your speed and strive to return to the capital city of Kyoto as quickly as possible!"

On the Xia Kingdom's side, Yang Feng, Gu Xi, and others led a group of Xia Kingdom soldiers out of Wuqi Kingdom without allowing them to rest.

Instead, he urged his troops to speed up their march and return to the capital, Xiancheng, as soon as possible.

This was to prevent the other two countries from receiving the news and taking advantage of the fact that their capital city was currently without any Nascent Soul cultivators stationed there, thus weakening their defenses and allowing them to breach the city's protective formations and carry out acts of arson, murder, and looting.

As for the outcome of Mingwu Zhenjun and Beihan Zhenjun's pursuit of the two Nascent Soul cultivators from Wuqi Kingdom, that was not their current concern.

They wanted to know what the final outcome would be.

They can only find out when their master and True Monarch Beihan return to the capital city.
