CHAPTER 483: CHAPTER 476: PEACE IN CHU COUNTRY, WU AND YUE BATTLE AGAIN (SECOND UPDATE, PLEASE SUBSCRIBE)

Shua shua!

At this moment, by channeling magical power, the Nine-Colored Divine Saber was formed in an instant, ready to strike and kill.

A Divine Saber at the Great Perfection Realm, already comparable to the Peak of Half-Step Divinity Transformation, infinitely close to Divinity Transformation.

With a quick flash of steps, the speed was even faster, and with the use of Vertical Earth Golden Light, the duration was extended, able to sustain for twenty breaths before mana was exhausted.

Buzz buzz!

Five halos rose up, continuously revolving and ceasing, and the defense was significantly enhanced.

Once again, Pure Yang True Flame was activated, runes flickered on the flames, greatly enhancing the attack power.

Again, various magical treasures were operated, their lights flashing, evolving into forces of slaughter and destruction.

Feeling the enhancement in cultivation, combat power heightened significantly, a sense of joy could not help but arise in the heart.

The increase in cultivation signified a higher probability of survival in the ensuing battles, enabling the killing of more enemies.

At this time, True Monarch Mo Yu approached from afar and laughed, "Congratulations, fellow Daoist, for entering the sixth layer of Nascent Soul."

"You’re not bad either, having also reached the peak of Nascent Soul!"

Lu Xuanji stepped forward, smiling.

"Congratulations to both!"

True Monarch Mo Yu laughed, "Ten years ago, the Sea Race began large-scale retreats, and now over the East Sea, their elite forces have entirely withdrawn, leaving only a few Golden Core Cultivators and Purple Mansion Cultivators. The eastern front of our Chu Country’s war is temporarily over, and we are safe!"

Lu Xuanji worriedly said, "Fellow Daoist, be cautious of the Sea Race’s trickery, beware of a surprise counterattack!"

"Haha, it won’t happen because after their massive retreat, they landed in Wu Country, in Yue Country, where intense battles are occurring continuously!" True Monarch Mo Yu laughed, "The battles there also imply that here, we are safe!"

"Safe!?"

Lu Xuanji was still perplexed, feeling like he was in a dream.

I was ready to fight to the death, yet the Sea Race retreated.

Are they playing with me!?

True Monarch Mo Yu laughed, "It’s safe. At least before the fall of Yue Country or the fall of Wu Country, we are safe. For the time being, Chu Country can recuperate, and we can finally catch our breath!"

Lu Xuanji said, "Does it end just like this!? We killed quite a few Nascent Soul True Monarchs and Golden Core True Masters from the Sea Race, they itch for revenge, yet it just ends like this!"

"It won’t end, but we are too hard to swallow. To conquer Chu Country would require massive costs, with many Golden Core True Masters and Nascent Soul True Monarchs needing to die. Those Divinity Transformation Cultivators must consider the lower cultivators’ requirements, they may need to retreat instead of fighting to the end!"

True Monarch Mo Yu said calmly.

Even Divinity Transformation requires friends, subordinates, comrades, and so on.

As long as one doesn’t wish to become isolated, they must consider the opinions of friends, subordinates, and comrades.

After that battle, many Nascent Soul True Monarchs and Golden Core True Masters, among others, don’t wish to fight anymore.

Those Divinity Transformation powerhouses cannot disregard everyone’s opinions and act arbitrarily.

"Safe!"

In a daze, Lu Xuanji returned to the cave mansion.

Still feeling like he was dreaming.

Couldn’t believe the war ended just like that.

As if remembering something, Lu Xuanji opened his phone, and opened Baidu Map, the map showed the East Sea.

In the image, there were only a few Golden Core Cultivators and many Purple Mansion Cultivators, along with various Sea Race beings, these sea creatures were insufficient in number and quality for a major decisive battle.

The map zoomed in again, showing the map of Yue Country and Wu Country.

On the map, fierce battles occurred in those areas.

Many coastal regions of Wu Country and Yue Country fell, turning red in some areas.

The cultivators of both sides were engaged in deadly battles, the intensity of the combat was high, unending bloodshed and amazing slaughter.

The fallen regions of Wu Country were more extensive, approximately two-thirds of its territory was lost; as for Yue Country, about half of its territory fell. Surrounding some fortified strongholds and strategic locations, both sides were in fierce battles.

With the Sea Race’s initial gluttony, they began gradually advancing and consuming, continuously draining the cultivators of Yue Country and Wu Country, continuously bleeding them. The moment when these two countries become bloodless is when they would be completely destroyed.

After these two countries’ demise, they would attack from the east and south, possibly even obliterating Chu Country, seeking revenge.

The image zoomed in again, revealing certain battle scenes and slaughters.

The Sea Race cultivators were fighting with those of Wu Country and Yue Country.

"The Sea Race is training!"

Watching the battlefield scenes, Lu Xuanji suddenly realized something.

At the bottom of the East Sea, more demons resided, more resources were contained, birthing many more cultivators with greater strength.

However, it seemed that under the constraints of the East Sea Dragon Palace, the various races were relatively peaceful, leading to a relative lack of combat experience and combat will.

Just the right opportunity to invade the Human Race and start training, enhancing combat experience.

In the beginning, Qi Refining Cultivators fought each other, followed by battles of Foundation Establishment Cultivators, and later Purple Mansion Golden Core, all using a tinge-and-oil strategy, constantly rotating in battle.

...

After observing for a while, Lu Xuanji turned off Baidu Map and exhaled slightly.

War requires calculation of costs and benefits.

Two types of wars are to be avoided: those with too little return to continue, and those with too high a cost to be worth starting.

In a previous life, the rabbit and the eagle sauce fought in the Korean war, ending three years later.

In the end, the eagle sauce said they won, pushing the enemy from Pusan to the 38th parallel, the enemy lost 390,000, they lost 110,000, the enemy died more than they did, somehow victorious in a great win. Yet the rabbit also said it won, pushing the enemy from the Yalu River to the 38th parallel, defending the country victoriously, a great victory.

Both celebrated victory, then stopped fighting. Because continuing had too little return and high costs, better to cease hostilities! Rather than killing endlessly out of spite, we’re not children.

At this moment, the opposing Sea Race saw continuing would incur huge costs with little benefits.

Hence, they turned to battle Wu Country and Yue Country instead.

Chu Country temporally remains peaceful.

This peace is fragile and easily broken, yet at least now it’s peaceful.

...

With the Sea Race retreating, Chu Country also withdrew from the eastern front, leaving a few cultivators stationed here to serve as a warning.

Lu Xuanji also departed.

About three days later, he returned to the Lu Family.

As he walked along, countless villages rose from the ground, and streams of people bustled about.

After decades of recuperation, Chu Country once again regained a hint of vitality.
