The Great Wild God - Chapter 704
Chapter 704 Dishi Peak
The Imperial Relic Peak was 30,000 feet tall. Above the mountain peak, under the fierce winds, the profound ice would not melt for a million years.
Dishi Mountain and Snowdragon Mountain were two enormous mountain systems that were adjacent to each other, and even extended over the mountain ridges. However, due to the fact that Dishi Mountain and Snowdragon Mountain stretched for more than 100,000 kilometers, Dishi Peak, the central area of Dishi Mountain, was still 170,000 to 180,000 kilometers away from Dishi Mountain.
After the demons broke through the ancient Jiang Stillwater Continent, Jiang Tianchou led the Feng Hou clan’s 200,000 brutal martial artists and hastily retreated back to the Emperor Shifeng Peak. As for the other allied forces stationed in Light Island, they chose to cross the sea and retreat north as soon as they knew that something was amiss at the entrance of the Sea Ruins.
Suddenly, Dishi Feng replaced Sihai City in the south of Light Island and became the headquarters of the allied forces of the various sects. The Tier 4 Heaven and Earth Ten Heaven Devil Mountain Protection Formation had also retreated to Emperor Shifeng.
Twenty days had passed since the Stillwater Continent was attacked, but the core of the Stillwater Continent was still too far away from Emperor Shifeng. Even if there was any news, it was the first time that it was passed between the ten sects of the Immortal Dao and the four ancient races.
At this moment, Jiang Tianchou and the disciples of the Dishi Mountain Sect, who had retreated to Xuan Xiu, had yet to figure out why the Stillwater Continent had been instantly destroyed by the demons.
Yes, the demon race ambushed the ancient Jiang Clan’s sacred land, Stillwater Continent City.
The news had already spread from Xuan Xiu in the outer region of Stillwater Province to Snowdragon Mountain and Dishi Mountain.
It was almost certain that Immortal Jiang Chengge, Jiang’s Patriarch, had died in the Demon Race’s ambush.
However, for the time being, no Xuan Xiu had escaped from Stillwater Continent. How the demons managed to cross the Nine Heavens Spirit Wind Formation, how they managed to instantly break through Stillwater Continent’s defenses, and kill Immortal Jiang Chengge was still a mystery.
Everyone who had retreated to Dishi Mountain did not know how badly the primordial Jiang’s Yuan Qi had been damaged, nor did they know whether Immortal Jiang Chengge would have a chance to reincarnate in a short period of time after his death, causing everyone to panic for a moment.
Everyone knew that the demons were coming aggressively this time, and the chances of them defending Dishi Mountain were extremely slim. However, the decree from the Heavenly Dao Sect and the South Sea Immortal Palace ten days ago required their disciples to wait for reinforcements from the various sects in Dishi Mountain.
However, apart from the Heavenly Dao Sect and South Sea Immortal Palace, who each sent four True Monarchs from the Lower Three Realms of Nirvana to lead over a thousand disciples into Dishi Mountain, the so-called follow-up reinforcements had not even been seen.
Everyone in Dishi Mountain suspected that the two sects wanted to use them to test the strength of the demon army and their determination to invade the north. For a moment, they were filled with resentment, and their morale was extremely low, and they were on the verge of scattering.
The Heavenly Dao Sect and South Sea Immortal Palace were unable to order the disciples of the other sects and clans to obey the decree, but the disciples of the other sects, Xuan Xiu, were themselves ordered to garrison Light Island to defend against the demons.
Seeing the fierce demons coming, it was fated for these Xuan Xiu disciples to follow the current and withdraw from Light Island. However, at this moment, they had not even seen the shadow of the demon army, so they had returned to the sect without permission. No matter what, they could not explain it to them.
The vast majority of them temporarily chose to stay at Dishi Peak and wait for orders. They watched the commotion, but they had already made up their minds. If the demons were powerful and reinforcements were not arriving, the sect could not reprimand them for retreating without a fight if they withdrew from Dishi Mountain. Jue Ji wouldn’t just sit here and wait to die.
As for Jiang Tianchou, he had no choice but to retreat.
The Stillwater Continent had fallen, and the blood clouds had pierced through the sky. Even if the Jiang Clan’s strength outside Stillwater Continent City was preserved, it would still severely injure Yuan Qi this time. If he abandoned Dishi Mountain, where could he retreat to?
Jiang shi’s defeat might be inevitable, but no matter what, Jiang Tianchou was currently the commander of the alliance army of the various sects and the only Nirvana Middle Three Realms expert on Emperor Shifeng.
Although Jiang Tianchou was similarly panicked and uneasy, he immediately ordered the Barbarian Martial Cultivators of the Feng Hou clan and the nearby Wildlands tribes to gather in Dishi Mountain and wait for their mobilization. In the future, no matter if they retreated or defended, they would not fall into complete passivity.
The Feng Hou Clan’s territory was over a hundred thousand kilometers, no less than Light Island’s. However, in Dishi Mountain, it was ruled by large clans with medium clans and small clans with medium clans. Therefore, the scale of the barbarian martial arts under the direct control of the Feng Hou Clan had never exceeded a million.
As for the Blood Sea Demonic Tribulation, under Jiang Tianqiu’s strict order, the various tribes were extremely cooperative. Within 20 days, the number of Barbarian Martial Cultivators and Barbarian Cultivators who had gathered in Dishi Mountain, along with the disciples of the Tian Clan who had joined Dishi Mountain, quickly exceeded two million.
However, with such a small army, how could they withstand the hundreds of millions of demons?
Not to mention those Immortal Sect disciples who were ready to leave at any time, Jiang Tianchou didn’t even have the slightest bit of trust in him-with such a small army, it was even difficult to take down Danzhou, so how could he defend against the hundreds of millions of Demon Race troops?
**********************
Splashing Crane Peak was more than 20,000 feet tall and was located more than 2,000 miles southwest of Dishi Peak.
Tian left Qizhou City and joined Dishi Mountain. Nearly 200,000 clansmen were thrown upside down. Recently, they had a chaotic rest in the deep gorge north of Splashing Crane Peak.
However, at this moment, no one dared to relax their vigilance, and not even the bags of their clansmen were allowed to be removed from the bronze chariot.
No one knew when the hundreds of millions of demon army would cross the north of the sea. No one knew if reinforcements from the various sects would arrive. They had to be prepared to retreat north at any time.
Tian Luan and Tian Gong were in charge of keeping watch today. They held the tower in their arms and whipped magic treasures. They stood motionlessly on the summit of Splashing Crane Peak, staring at the south with extreme eyes, paying attention to the changes in the clouds between heaven and earth at any time.
Wang Chong, Wang Teng, and Gu Yangzi flew up from the valley and prepared to take over from Tian Gong and Tian Luan. They saluted and asked, “My teacher and Tian Zun haven’t returned from the Emperor Shifeng yet?”
When the blood cloud pierced through the sky, Yu Xuzi led Wang Chong, Wang Teng, Gu Yangzi, and the other direct disciples to leave Qizhou City, but Tian Huan quickly sent people to catch up with them and invite them to join Dishi Mountain.
In the past few years, Yu Xuzi had not obtained a foothold in the various realms. Wang Chong, Wang Teng, Gu Yangzi, and several hundred other disciples were the only ones under his command.
Scattered courtyards also had the benefits of scattered courtyards. At the very least, they would not be like the Tian Clan, which had hundreds of thousands of clansmen in their hands, in the face of a catastrophe.
Hundreds of disciples packed their luggage and left as soon as they said so. In fact, even a Heavenly Artifact Grade cave magic treasure could barely contain all disciples with low cultivation.
It was precisely because Tian Huan invited him that Yu Xuzi finally returned and led the disciples to join the Tian Clan in the Dishi Mountain.
At that time, they also believed that it was impossible for the allied forces of the various sects to defend Dishi Mountain. They thought that if they could retreat north with the allied forces of the various sects to the Heavenly Dao Sect’s main sect, the Cloud Wilderness Ridge, they might be able to obtain a place to settle north of the Cloud Wilderness Ridge with their escaping friendship.
No one had expected that the situation would undergo some unexpected subtle changes in the past ten days.
“But I don’t understand. What’s there to discuss? That dog thief Chen Xun ran to Light Island to die. Do we still need to listen to Zhao Xinglong’s encouragement and cross the sea to Light Island to die as well?” Wang Tengweng said.
Even though the Qilin Strait was a forbidden zone for profound and martial cultivators below the Dharma Realm, it was rumored that Chen Xunhui would lead Danzhou reinforcements to assist Light Island’s human race across the sea at Qilin Horn until the bloody battle in Yue Shan City lasted for three days. In fact, all movements in Qilin Horn were under Dishi Mountain’s close scrutiny …
However, the controversy over the rescue of the Qilin horn to help Light Island’s hundreds of millions of humans cross the sea started after Zhao Xinglong arrived at the peak halfway through the sea.
However, Wang Teng did not understand why there was such a controversy.
Hundreds of millions of demon army swept over. Not only Light Island, but also Dishi Peak and Snowdragon Mountain would be annihilated. They should leave this place as soon as possible.
Tian Luan and Tian Gong looked at each other, thinking that Wang Teng’s cultivation wasn’t weak, but his temperament was rough and he wasn’t familiar with the world. Unexpectedly, he didn’t even see the subtleties of the situation at this moment.
Neither Dishi Mountain nor Snowdragon Mountain had any particularly powerful Loose Cultivator Sect nor any particularly dangerous terrain to defend. If they retreated north, they would have to retreat all the way to the Heavenly Dao Sect’s sacred land, Cloud Barren Mountain, to block the attacks of the demon army.
For the Heavenly Dao Sect, they would not use all their strength to fight to the death against the demons until they had a clear understanding of the demons’ background. However, if there was a sliver of possibility, it was impossible for them to abandon Dishi Mountain and Snowdragon Mountain’s frontline and allow the demons’ hundreds of millions of troops to charge straight into the Cloud Barren Mountain …
Without reinforcements from the various sects, it was impossible for them to defend against the hundreds of millions of Demon Race troops. The sects would not be able to send out the heaven-defying experts of the sect until they had a clear understanding of the demon race.
However, who would have thought that Chen Xun would lead the tens of thousands of reinforcements in Danzhou and last for three days in the Qilin Horn without showing the slightest sign of defeat?
This actually meant that the demons who had invaded Tian Jun from the Sea Ruins might not be as strong as they had imagined, meaning that they still had a chance to defend Dishi Mountain and Snowdragon Mountain.
At this time, Tian Huan and Yu Xuzi flew over from the direction of Emperor Shifeng. Tian Luan, Tian Gong, Wang Chong, Gu Yangzi, and the others welcomed them.
Tian Luan anxiously asked, “Patriarch, did the Sovereigns come up with any ideas at Emperor Shifeng? Should they send reinforcements to the Qilin Horn to kill the demons?”
Tian Huan said, “Eternal Brightness Island has lost its natural harmony, The demon race’s main force was only five to six days away from Everbright Island. “Moreover, we will send more outpost mo soldiers at any time. No matter how many reinforcements we send, we will most likely be trapped in the Qilin Liquidation. True Monarch Tianqiu has decided to send someone to inform Chen Xun to withdraw from Everbright Island immediately. As many humans as he can save this time, it will be considered a great credit. Dishi Mountain will consider sending half of his men to help!”
“I’m afraid that this fellow doesn’t know the heavens and the earth, he doesn’t know whether to live or die, and he doesn’t want to withdraw. I’m afraid he won’t be able to escape.” Gu Yangzi smiled coldly and said gloatingly.
Tian Luan frowned slightly and asked, “Not even a single reinforcements?”
Although Chen Xun and Martial Emperor Xi had worked together to expel Mrs. Tian from Snowdragon Mountain, that didn’t mean that he wouldn’t even be able to understand the current situation because of hatred.
Whether Chen Xun was alive or dead had a huge impact on the morale and hearts of the people guarding Dishi Mountain and Snowdragon Mountain.
Yu Xuzi and the others could retreat north at any time, so they could gloat over their misfortune. However, the Tian clan still had 200,000 clansmen here, and there were still a million clansmen in Yunzhou and Kunzhou. Where could they retreat to?
Tian Huan landed on the top of Splashing Crane Peak and said, “True Monarch Heavenly Enmity will not stop anyone who is willing to follow Zhao Xinglong across the sea to reinforce the Qilin Horn!”
“Master, please allow Chengqian to follow True Monarch Zhao across the sea!” At this moment, one of the disciples standing guard by the side suddenly ran to the front and knelt down in front of Gu Yangzi.
Seeing that the trash disciple Fan Chengqian who rushed out to ask for reinforcements from Chen Xun was actually a trash disciple who had advanced to the Heaven Realm in four hundred years, but hadn’t made any progress since then, Gu Yangzi was furious. He waved his sleeve and flung him aside. He coldly snorted and shouted, “How can you speak here? Scram!”
“Alright!” Yu Xuzi stopped Gu Yangzi from continuing. He could understand the thoughts of everyone in the Tian Clan. No matter how much they wanted to gloat over their misfortune, they couldn’t reveal it in front of everyone in the Tian Clan. He said, “True Monarch Heavenly Enmity said that Dishi Mountain wouldn’t stop anyone from crossing the sea. Then follow Cheng Qian!”
Gu Yangzi was originally Yu Xuzi’s second disciple. After that, he was re-recruited by Yu Xuzi. He did not dare to disobey Yu Xuzi in the slightest. He looked at Fan Chengqian as if he was looking at a dead object and said, “Whatever you want.”
“Master, please allow us to cross the sea with Senior Brother Fan!”
At this moment, more than ten people knelt in front of him. They were all disciples who had entered Tian Jun from Cloud Continent. Gu Yangzi’s expression suddenly became as ugly as a pig’s liver. He was so angry that he scolded, “They are all ignorant things. Scram! Scram!”
