After the end of the great battle above the East Sea, it was basically a declaration of the end of this war, after all, the strongest had already fallen.

The remaining people, without the leadership of the strong, were just lambs to be slaughtered.

The reality was indeed so, the East Sea army could be described as killing and winning all the way, beating the Dongying army to the point where they had no will to resist, constantly trying to escape in all directions.

It was just that this was not Dongying, but the Central Plains, and there was no place for them to stay. Under the encirclement and interception of many strong men, almost all the Dongying warriors were surrounded.

Those with backbone and stubbornness would rather die than surrender.

But such people were always in the minority. The vast majority of people, under the threat of life and death, still chose to follow their hearts. It was just a pity that they didn't know that sometimes death was also a kind of relief.

Waiting for them would be an eternity of darkness....

......

After the end of the East Sea battle, the battle at Jianmen Pass was also basically declared over. Chen Yuan received a reply and roughly knew some of the situation.

The Northern Barbarian army was defeated, with more than 200,000 casualties and more than 400,000 captured. Less than 300,000 Northern Barbarian soldiers were able to escape from that great battle.

The vast majority of them were troops that had not yet reached Jianmen Pass. After receiving the news, they quickly fled, and only then did they save their lives.

This battle undoubtedly completely crippled the Northern Liang army, but what about the three major royal courts of the Northern Barbarians?

One Barbarian God fell, several True Monarchs, a dozen or so Refinement Realm Nascent Soul level True Persons, 600,000 troops were killed or wounded, plus the previous battle of Liangzhou City.

It was no exaggeration to say that this was not just a minor injury, it would take at least decades to recover.

And when these two pieces of news spread towards the inland of the Central Plains, they undoubtedly caused an extremely huge shock. One million Northern Barbarian iron cavalry, three Barbarian Gods.

Dongying Immortals, hundreds of thousands of Dongying elite warriors simultaneously attacked the two major defense lines in the northeast of the Central Plains. This could even be called a national war. Even the Great Jin Dynasty in its heyday would have difficulty holding on.

But they managed to stop it....

Wei Jinfeng's death at Jianmen Pass, and the fact that hundreds of thousands of soldiers fought to the death without retreating, aroused great praise, and countless people were praising Wei Jinfeng.

It was a pity that death was still death after all, and no amount of praise would help.

Chen Yuan's suppression of Immortals made countless warriors go crazy. He was only just entering the Sixth Realm, but he was able to suppress Immortals, almost single-handedly turning the tide.

How could such deeds not be admired?

How could they not be admired?

The major prefectures and counties in the Central Plains were constantly discussing this matter. At the same time, the Yan army was constantly bypassing Zhong Province, going from Yun Province to Bing Province, and rushing to the aid of Liang Province with resources.

Although Bing Province had not yet been recovered, as long as the flag with the character 'Yan' was raised, no one dared to invade and plunder. Even more, inspired by Wei Jinfeng's deeds, their blood boiled, and they actively joined the guard team, wanting to join the Northern Liang army to resist the Northern Barbarians.

The anger in Zhong Province was accumulating, and countless people were angered by the attacks of Dongying and the grasslands, believing that the provocation of the Central Plains Divine Continent by the barbarian lands was a disgrace.

They had to pay it back!

But on the grasslands, there were deserters everywhere, filled with a sense of lament.

The grassland barbarians were different from the Central Plains. From the royal court down, they were divided into large and small tribes. Whether it was resource development or the location of food, often it was not enough and they needed to rely on plundering, gradually becoming larger, and then gradually dissolving, and reorganizing into new tribes.

If they won, they would naturally happily accept the rewards from the royal court, but if they lost, they would have to think for themselves. Therefore, now that the news had spread back, the grasslands were almost immediately thrown into turmoil.

The grassland royal court, having sent out all its elites, also had greatly insufficient control over the tribes below. It could be predicted that in the following period of time, a real great turmoil would be set off.

On an ordinary mountain peak, the Gumu Barbarian God of the Gumu Royal Court quietly watched the deserters below, his expression without the slightest fluctuation, as if it was not them who had failed.

But if you looked closely, you could sense a difficult-to-describe murderous aura rising from his body.

The void trembled, and the Wufeng Barbarian God of the Gumu Royal Court tore through the void and slowly stepped out. He saw the Gumu Barbarian God at a glance, took a deep breath, and slowly walked to his side.

"Zhu Ming is dead."

The Gumu Barbarian God raised his head and looked at Wufeng.

"I know...."

The Wufeng Barbarian God nodded. When that terrifying Human Earth Immortal Great Expert pursued them, although they relied on the destiny of their respective royal courts to block him, it was only for a moment.

After that, it was a chase all the way, extremely similar to the chase of Chen Yuan back then.

The three of them had tried to join forces, not seeking to overcome that Earth Immortal, but only to resist, but sometimes the gap was really too big. That Earth Immortal Great Expert was even more terrifying than the Earth Immortal existences in the records.

Even if the three of them joined forces, they were not his opponent.

Out of necessity, in order to survive, the three of them had to flee in three directions. He was still alive, and Gumu was still alive, so there was only one possibility, something had happened to Zhu Ming.

And it could be learned from the news discussed by the deserters that Zhu Ming had been annihilated from his Nascent Soul, his head chopped off, and placed at Jianmen Pass to commemorate Wei Jinfeng.

"Dongying has also been defeated, Yagyu Toshiyoshi has fallen into Chen Yuan's hands. Now, Dongying has already embarked on the road to ruin, and everyone has become a slave...."

Gumu continued.

"I also know...." Wufeng sighed deeply, without any of his previous high spirits, looking to the south and solemnly said:

"We underestimated that Earth Immortal Great Expert too much, which is why this defeat occurred."

Their defeat was only due to that Earth Immortal Great Expert. If he had not suddenly appeared at the moment when Jianmen Pass was broken, Jianmen Pass would have been occupied long ago.

All the Northern Liang army and the people of Liang Province in the Central Plains would have become slaves of the Northern Barbarians. Even the old madman of Wudang Mountain and the monk named Molo would have fallen into their hands.

He.... was really unwilling!

If there had been an existence that could block that Earth Immortal Great Expert, there would definitely not have been this disaster today!

"Now that we have fought to this point, the elites of the three major royal courts have been completely lost. In the future, when Chen Yuan recovers, he will definitely launch a large-scale northern expedition. What should we do then? We can't just sit and wait for death...."

This was what the Gumu Barbarian God was truly worried about. Perhaps this was just the beginning. When Chen Yuan launched a large-scale northern expedition, who would resist, who could resist?

As for escaping, it was simply unrealistic.

They had spent hundreds of years migrating here, could it be that they had to go back to the icy and snowy land to eat snow and endure hunger?

"It's difficult...."

The Wufeng Barbarian God remained silent. This was indeed a very thorny problem. Even if the Gumu Royal Court was located in the northernmost part and faced the least threat, once the other two royal courts were destroyed, the Gumu Royal Court would also be destroyed.

There was no other way....

"In the past two days, this seat has thought a lot. The main reason for the grassland's defeat is that there are no Earth Immortal level figures to support it, and although the three major royal courts are allied, they are still suspicious of each other, and their hearts are not aligned."

"So?"

The Wufeng Barbarian God frowned.

"Therefore, the best plan now is to completely scatter the three major royal courts, and use this opportunity to completely condense them into a truly supreme royal court, to recreate the glory of the Xiongnu royal court of a thousand years ago."

"It's unrealistic. Even if the royal courts are united, we have already suffered such great casualties this time. Could it be that we can conjure up a batch of strong people out of thin air?"

The Wufeng Barbarian God did not quite agree.

"The grasslands are vast, even larger than the Central Plains Divine Continent. There are countless tribes. By devouring these tribes, the power of the royal court can naturally be replenished, and it can even become stronger."

Gumu said in a deep voice.

"Do you want to imitate the Central Plains?"

"That's right. Looking at the history of the Central Plains, the most prosperous moments are always when they are unified. Their destiny is at its peak, strong people emerge in large numbers, and talents are like clouds.

What do the royal courts lack compared to the Central Plains?"

"When the time comes, who will be the leader and who will be the assistant?"

They had discussed this issue last time, thinking about using the passage of time and the prestige of a great victory to eliminate those dissenting opinions, but after all, it was a long-term problem. Gumu meant that he wanted to unite them in the near future, so as to resist the Central Plains.

"Survival of the fittest, let the people below decide. As long as the two of us don't interfere or secretly help...."

"Okay, even if this matter can be accomplished, where will the Earth Immortal Great Expert come from? Even if the only royal court on the grasslands is formed, how can it resist Chen Yuan?"

The Wufeng Barbarian God stared at the Gumu Barbarian God, wanting to see what he could say.

The Gumu Barbarian God was silent for a long time, and said in a low voice:

"Wufeng, do you still remember Huangji?"

"Huangji?!"

The Wufeng Barbarian God's pupils shrank deeply, as if he was very familiar with this name, and the color of fear in his eyes had reached its peak.

"That's right."

"He.... wasn't he.... He failed to break through to the Earth Immortal realm.... Has he already fallen?"

The Wufeng Barbarian God couldn't help but say.

Who was Huangji? Even after hundreds of years, he couldn't forget him, because that person had brought too much pressure to the grasslands back then.

A thousand years ago, the Xiongnu royal court swept across the grasslands, known as the Whip of Heaven, wanting to annex the human world. It was a pity that it encountered the Chu Taizu, who emerged out of nowhere, and was directly defeated by him, creating hundreds of years of grassland chaos.

And Huangji was the bloodline seed left behind by the Xiongnu royal court....

At the beginning, the three major royal courts were just beginning to emerge, forming a prototype. Huangji directly appeared. At that time, he was already at the peak of the Human Immortal realm, suppressing the three of them so much that they couldn't lift their heads.

But just when everyone was ready to submit, Huangji.... suddenly disappeared.

It was also because of this that the three major royal courts were officially established.

At the beginning, the three of them had also searched for Huangji's whereabouts, wanting to join forces to kill him, but unfortunately, the information they obtained all pointed to Huangji's failure to break through the realm and his death on the spot.

It was then that they breathed a sigh of relief, believing that they were safe and sound.

Wufeng even delayed many years of his life with the help of the Xuanwu divine beast. Otherwise, with his age exceeding the Gumu and Zhu Ming Barbarian Gods by hundreds of years, he would have died of old age long ago.

Now, a name that had been sealed for a long time reappeared, how could he not be shocked.

"No, he is still alive...." Gumu slowly spat out a few words, but they made the Wufeng Barbarian God's heart shake.

"What did you say?"

Gumu looked directly at Wufeng and continued:

"A few years ago, my clan's holy son was undergoing a trial and accidentally discovered a secret realm that was like a dead end in the northeast direction of the grasslands. The rules were chaotic. Anyone below the Immortal realm who entered would die.

The holy son reported this matter to this seat. I was a little curious and went in to investigate, and then.... I discovered Huangji, who had only his Nascent Soul left, trapped in that space.

He had entered the Earth Immortal realm for many years and had been cultivating hard in that space, but unfortunately that space was a bit strange and had almost become one with him.

He couldn't move at all, unless several Immortal level existences took action to help him escape from that space. He asked me to save him, but I didn't agree."

Being a Barbarian God within the royal court, being high above and having the final say, who would go looking for trouble for themselves?

Once Huangji, an Earth Immortal existence, came out, it would be impossible for him to have a supreme position again, so he didn't tell anyone and secretly killed everyone who knew about that place, and also set up a seal.

Originally, he was thinking about forgetting Huangji, after all, without the help of outsiders, he couldn't come out on his own, but now, the grasslands have been defeated and are facing huge pressure.

He was a little shaken....

The Wufeng Barbarian God's expression was uncertain, and he was silent for a long time:

"Is this true?"

"Absolutely true."

"So, you want to let him out now to preside over the overall situation and rebuild the Xiongnu royal court?"

The Wufeng Barbarian God frowned tightly, and from the bottom of his heart, he was a little unwilling.

"This is currently the best way."

"What if he kills the two of us first after he comes out?"

"We can have him take an oath, and.... now there are only the two of us Barbarian Gods in the entire Northern Barbarian grasslands. If he kills us, who will help him?"

"It's really uncomfortable to find a strong person to put over our heads."

"If possible, I wouldn't want to either, but the Northern Barbarians are on the verge of destruction, and there is no other way. Chen Yuan is impossible to let go of the grasslands, unless you have a better way."

"You asked me to come here just for this matter?"

"Yes."

"This seat will consider it....."

The Wufeng Barbarian God took a deep breath.

"Time waits for no one."

"This seat is clear."

......

......

Zhong Province, Jing City.

The great calamity coming from the northeast has caused the people in Jing City to fall into another carnival, but for Feng Yuan Daoist and Sima Yuande, it is like a faint haze cast over them.

In fact, when Dongying and the Northern Barbarians launched a large-scale invasion, Feng Yuan Daoist once suggested that he wanted to bloom in the center and attack Chen Yuan from behind, defeating him in one fell swoop.

But Sima Yuande refused, telling Feng Yuan Daoist that even if he wanted Chen Yuan to die, he would not use this method, because he himself was also a person from the Central Plains.

If he really joined forces with foreigners, the Sima family would be forever nailed to the pillar of shame.

Feng Yuan Daoist didn't think so. When the Great Jin Dynasty was founded, Sima Yuande had not borrowed the power of the Northern Barbarian grasslands to put pressure on the Great Chu Dynasty. Now, he was talking about integrity.

A little laughable....

But no matter what he said, Sima Yuande disagreed, and in the end, he could only give up.

On this day, Sima Yuande, standing above the tombs of the Sima family ancestors in Jing City, quietly looked at the void, as if he saw some faint traces.

He sensed a breath that was dissipating from the void, and the rules of heaven and earth were gradually becoming clear. The turbid heaven and earth were gradually becoming clear.

He even felt that it was easier to comprehend.

And this can only prove one thing.

In half a year at most, and one month at least, the Immortal Realm will completely descend upon the human world, and this time.... there will be no such peerless Martial God as Chu Taizu in the human world to stop it.

Although Chen Yuan is strong, he is still too weak after all.

What about the Earth Immortal realm?

How can he stop an Immortal Venerable at the Heavenly Immortal level?

He was unwilling to join forces with foreigners, also because he felt that.... there was no need to do these things before the Immortal Realm descended.
