I Have A Qi Fortune Altar

It can be said that as they retreated, they left corpses along the way.

The blood had stained the front of the State City of Liangzhou red, and the smell of blood still lingered.

The Northern Barbarians lost nearly half of their Yang Transformation forces, with one True Monarch fallen and two severely injured; one of these even had their physical body cut down, making it a pyrrhic victory.

Because the Beiliang Army also suffered heavy losses, with two main generals of the camp fallen, two Yang Transformation warriors from the Jianghu fallen, and many martial artists from the Jianghu buried by the Barbarians.

If one were to calculate from the beginning of the battle, including the Beiliang Army, Jianghu martial artists, ordinary civilians, and the Prefecture Army below,

the casualty numbers were actually on par with the Northern Barbarians.

Wei Jinfeng even severed his path, losing hope of ever reaching the Six Realms in this life.

With such heavy losses, although Liangzhou managed to drive away the Barbarians, it was impossible to feel happy.

However, after this battle, the Barbarians would not dare invade southward for at least a decade or two, which was a good thing for the Liangzhou people.

It would give them time to recuperate.

After hearing this, Chen Yuan remained silent for a while.

Those cold numbers were not just numbers but represented vivid human lives!

This was also Chen Yuan's first time facing such heavy casualties, the first time facing the onslaught of the army's iron cavalry, which made him grow significantly.

Within Wudang Mountain, Wei Jinfeng stayed for about half a day. Besides telling Chen Yuan these things, he also gave him some pointers on his cultivation.

This benefited him considerably.

Afterwards, Wei Jinfeng did not linger long, as his injuries had not yet healed, and there were also many matters in Liangzhou to handle post-battle, so he couldn't stay with Chen Yuan.

When Wei Jinfeng heard that Chen Yuan was going to recuperate on Wudang Mountain for a few days to recover from his injuries, he only offered some encouragement, telling him not to hurry back.

Liangzhou was stable with him around.

This was not a warning from Wei Jinfeng to Chen Yuan but only showed his earnest expectations for him.

Wei Jinfeng left swiftly, and after making a brief parting with Song Yingqiao, he boarded the royal chariot of the King of Beiliang, transforming into a streak of light that disappeared from Wudang Mountain.

Song Yingqiao carefully observed Chen Yuan for a moment, then a gentle smile appeared on his face; although he didn't know Chen Yuan's connection with the Old Heavenly Master, it certainly involved some ties to merit a Sixth Realm Immortal 'proactively' speaking on his behalf.

Moreover, although Chen Yuan was a newcomer to the Yang Transformation, he was of the same realm as him, and it wasn't inappropriate to treat as equals. After all, Chen Yuan was an extraordinary genius.

In just a few years, he had broken through to the Yang Transformation; who could say his cultivation would not surge to True Monarch in the upcoming years?

Otherwise, if it had been an ordinary Primordial Spirit True Master, he wouldn't even bother wasting his time on them, because there is a vast difference between Yang Transformation cultivators.

There are many real masters, but how many make it to True Monarch?

In the contemporary court and top Immortal Sects, being a True Monarch represents absolute high status, like Song Yingqiao, who is not only the leader of the Wudang Seven Sons but also a True Monarch power.

Though nominally the Old Heavenly Master is the greatest, he hasn't handled matters for over a century, the one truly holding power in the Wudang Immortal Sect is still him.

The status is undeniably revered.

After chatting for a while, Chen Yuan's old friend Zuo Chengzong, rushing to meet him after hearing the news, began by congratulating Chen Yuan on breaking through to Yang Transformation and reaching the top of the Fengyun List.

Upon learning the ins and outs of this matter from his mouth, Chen Yuan fell into silence.

Strictly speaking, he only stayed at the top of the Fengyun List for a few days and didn't truly experience the joy of it. As soon as the news of his breakthrough to Yang Transformation spread,

Ascending Immortal Tower would naturally remove him from the Fengyun List.

To speak of it, among the Heaven, Earth, and Man Lists, this was perhaps Chen Yuan's time with the least presence on the Fengyun List. Compared to the Hidden Dragon List, it was far lacking.

As for the Heavenly List, Chen Yuan now had an alias ranking in the top ten.

If it were made public, who knows how many people's jaws would drop in disbelief.

Previously, Wei Jinfeng hadn't mentioned it much, but Zuo Chengzong did talk about Chen Yuan's current prestige in Liangzhou, which simply put, other than Wudang Mountain, his fame was already second.

Even though the battle had been over for more than ten days, people continued to mention him frequently, and most spoke of him in tones of admiration and awe.

As for the first, it was naturally the indisputable King of Beiliang.

He had done more for Liangzhou, and Chen Yuan didn't aspire to rival him.

The rise in Chen Yuan's prestige in Liangzhou also signified the realization of his previous plans, laying a solid foundation for future ventures in the North.

Talking with Zuo Chengzong for a long time, most of the conversation was about the details of that battle, and even Zuo Chengzong himself was deeply moved; evidently, it was also his first encounter with such a scene.

He had grown a lot after being tempered by the iron-blood.

As for his role in that battle, there was no mention, and Chen Yuan himself wasn't quite sure, because his main focus at the time was on the Barbarian God and Yang Transformation powerhouses, not below.

After discussing these details, Zuo Chengzong didn't disturb him more, recognizing that Chen Yuan had just broken through and primarily needed to stabilize his cultivation, since time was on their side.

They would have plenty of opportunities to talk.

Chen Yuan was arranged by Song Yingqiao into one of the best caves on Wudang Mountain, significantly improved compared to last time, coinciding with his elevated strength.

If he were in the Core Realm Cultivation, even with high renown, he might not have been placed into a cave suitable for True Monarch.

The Primordial Energy inside was indeed dense, very suitable for cultivation. Chen Yuan cultivated with a Calm Heart for several hours, and upon steadying his Primordial Spirit, he took out the Heavenly Book to contact other Taoist Masters of the Taoist Divine Palace.

Seeking to understand the reactions of the outside world when he was on the brink of death.

However, the focus was not on this aspect; upon hearing that Chen Yuan not only survived the danger but had successfully broken through to Yang Transformation, the Taoist Masters fell silent for several breaths after being astonished.
