Chapter 1953 - 1957: Vengeance Fulfilled
"What!?"
When Guo Hai shouted the name "Qin Tian," the Vanguard General and the guards around them were all shocked and stunned!
All of their eyes turned to Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao, and waves of Defensive True Qi began to gather!
However, just as their True Qi started to form and Guo Hai was about to turn and leave, Qin Tian grinned and said, "General Guo, how are you! Since you’re here, you might as well stay!"
Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao had waited here for so long, just for Guo Hai’s arrival.
Now that the guy had shown up, how could they just let him go?
Qin Tian condensed the power of a Great Immortal Realm expert, and the first layer of the Burning Sky Technique he had just practiced, Sky-controlling Fire, roared out directly!
Guo Hai was only at Late Stage Small Immortal Realm cultivation. When his True Qi spread out, he wanted to fly away, but as soon as he ascended into the sky, True Qi Flames inexplicably began to burn on him!
Boom!
True Qi Flames grew larger and instantly enveloped Guo Hai’s entire body!
"General Guo!"
"General!"
The North State army saw their leader scorched by True Qi Flames and each wanted to extinguish the flames forcefully with True Qi.
But as their True Qi roared towards it, the flames only grew larger, completely unstoppable!
"Ah!"
Guo Hai’s body darted erratically between sky and ground, emitting a sound of agony, and in the blink of an eye, his whole body burned to ashes by True Qi Flames as powder fell from the sky!
Wow!
Seeing this scene, everyone in the North State army was dumbfounded!
With just one move, Guo Hai was completely unable to withstand it and was directly killed?
And not a bone remained!
"Brothers, avenge General Guo! Kill them!"
The Vanguard General and the other generals rushed forward, stunned at first, then furious upon seeing Qin Tian and Duan Xiaodao alone, eager to kill Qin Tian!
"Heh heh, it seems this Burning Sky Technique is indeed powerful; those with cultivation levels one or two grades lower are hard-pressed to resist!"
Qin Tian grinned, seeing the swarm of a hundred thousand troops rushing towards him, and shouted violently, "Six Dragon Power, activate!"
Six True Qi Giant Dragons soared up with immense Dragon Qi, suddenly slapping against the North State army with a hot wave of True Qi!
At the same time, accompanied by Duan Xiaodao’s roar, five hundred Qin Family soldiers who had been long ambushed around suddenly descended from the sky, with the "Qin" flag waving in the wind!
"Qin Tian is here!"
"Qin Family army is here!"
"This, this... General Guo is dead, how can we fight?"
Though the North State army had a hundred thousand troops, in the instant Guo Hai was annihilated, they became completely chaotic, unsure whether to fight to the death or retreat immediately, hesitating, as large patches of soldiers fell.
The second in command of the North State army couldn’t stop the pale trend.
Besides, these soldiers had long heard of Qin Tian and the Qin Family army’s prowess; today, ambushed and witnessing Guo Hai’s death, each member of the Qin Family army was a General Level master, instantly causing the hundred thousand troops to be routed, abandoning armor and fleeing!
"Retreat! Retreat!"
The senior commanders of the North State army, seeing their troops already demoralized and lacking fighting spirit, could only order a retreat.
However, the cost of retreating was painful.
Qin Tian had long issued orders to pursue relentlessly, leaving no survivors!
All Qin Family soldiers were Small Immortal Realm masters, facing North State soldiers several levels lower in cultivation; they could handle dozens or hundreds with ease.
This pursuit turned into a massacre.
Finally, the Qin Family army chased over a hundred kilometers north, frightening the North State army, only then did they retreat with the sound of gongs.
This battle ended with Qin Tian achieving a complete victory.
Only one Qin Family soldier died and more than fifty were wounded.
On the opposing side, of the fifteen thousand North State army, more than seven thousand were killed, leaving eight thousand, of which over eighty percent were injured!
Thirty-six senior commanders, twenty-eight were killed, including their number one, Guo Hai!
Utterly tragic.
"Heh heh, after this battle, the North State should be obedient from now on. Still want to take advantage of the chaos, Li Muyang?"
Qin Tian breathed deeply, feeling great, and said, "I reckon, once news of the North State army’s disastrous ambush reaches West Capital, West Capital won’t be able to hold out for long."
"Hmm, now it seems the situation in West State is stable," Duan Xiaodao said, "The Fourth Prince and War God underestimated us and paid the price. Next, we must prevent them from bouncing back."
Qin Tian said, "We can’t prevent it, but when troops advance, defenders block, and water comes, soil covers. Now, I have the confidence to face off against the Fourth Prince!"
With cultivation reaching the Peak of the Great Immortal Realm, soon entering the Flying Immortal Realm, with the Divine Elephant Subjugating Demon Tower residing within him, Qin Tian is now a top expert within the Spiritual Domain.
The news of the North State army’s disastrous defeat spread quickly, and as expected, not only West Capital but even the Imperial City was shocked.
The Fourth Prince and War God were furious, while Li Muyang cursed Qin Tian vehemently.
However, he still felt fortunate that he was temporarily transferred, resulting in Guo Hai’s death.
If he hadn’t been transferred, would he have died?
Li Muyang received a detailed report of the frontline battle.
The report clearly stated that Guo Hai was killed effortlessly by Qin Tian with one move.
Li Muyang speculated Qin Tian was at least at Early Stage of the Great Immortal Realm.
And he himself had just stepped into Early Stage Great Immortal Realm.
If the two were to fight, the outcome was truly uncertain.
However, unlike Li Muyang’s relief, Zhou Wushuang in the West Capital was now at a loss.
He originally intended to await reinforcements from the North State army, but instead, they were ambushed and routed by Qin Tian midway.
No reinforcements would arrive, and though the War God in the Imperial City was furious, he was entangled in the city’s chaos, unable to mobilize forces to support in the near term.
Ultimately, Zhou Wushuang could only rely on himself.
Rely on himself, but how?
Before, when facing Zhao Lanjin’s assault, he still had the confidence to contend with Zhao Lanjin.
But upon hearing that Qin Tian had personally arrived at the frontline, Zhou Wushuang was unsettled.
"I’m now at Small Immortal Realm Peak... Having heard Guo Hai at Middle Stage Small Immortal Realm was instantly killed by Qin Tian, I fear my cultivation level can’t withstand even ten moves against Qin Tian! What to do..."
Now, Qin Tian has created enormous deterrence in the Tianyuan Dynasty, with commanders of low cultivation quivering before facing him.
The War God’s order to Zhou Wushuang was to hold out indefinitely, but Zhou Wushuang saw no hope of maintaining his position.
He sent three appeals for help to the War God and Fourth Prince, but all were fruitless.
Both the War God and Fourth Prince’s attitudes were identical, ordering Zhou Wushuang:
"West Capital has ample provisions and formidable defenses. With your two hundred thousand troops occupying this natural barrier, you can hold out short-term; Qin Tian can’t conquer it easily. Persist for half a year, after which the Imperial City will directly launch a campaign against Qin Tian!"
