Quick Transmigration: Underdog Turns out to be Untouchable Chapter 759 - 682: Ascend to the Peak 81

Until Tan Feiyu was ard to the teeth, ensuring that no matter what, Tan Feiyu could survive on the battlefield, Tan Shuangshuang, though worried, finally let go and allowed Tan Feiyu and the other newcors to head to the battlefield together.

The unlucky Demons who caught Tan Shuangshuang’s eye on the battlefield soon found out, to their dismay, that in just a single day, this killing god had beco even more ferocious. Companions they had been able to deal with before now had their heads swiftly taken. This brutality was enough to scare a demon to death!

After several battles, Tan Shuangshuang discovered that Tan Feiyu was adapting well, with no danger erging, which put her at ease. However, trouble appeared on Fei Hu’s side. The battlefield cultivation during this period was also very beneficial for Fei Hu’s tempering, and it had already broken through to the General Level.

High Level Magic Beasts naturally awaken intelligence, while ordinary Magic Beasts only truly awaken intelligence after reaching the General Level. Regardless of being a High Level or an ordinary mode, reaching the General Level is an important gateway, because at this level, Magic Beasts can start speaking.

Of course, before speaking, they need to refine the Horizontal Bone so they can truly articulate words. The problem is how to refine the Horizontal Bone—it’s different for each Magic Beast, requiring them to explore on their own, and not even those of the sa species can help with this.

Fei Hu encountered difficulties in refining the Horizontal Bone. Despite trying many thods, it just couldn’t refine the Horizontal Bone to the point of being able to speak, which greatly worried its teacher, Bai Sheng.

Initially, Bai Sheng thought that letting Fei Hu explore on its own for a couple of days would solve it, given Fei Hu’s intelligence and quick learning pace. However, even though Fei Hu’s cultivation progressed several small stages, refining the Horizontal Bone was still nowhere in sight.

This made Bai Sheng so worried that he started to fret. After struggling for a long ti without finding a cause, Bai Sheng could only consult with Fei Hu’s owner, Tan Shuangshuang. But Tan Shuangshuang wasn’t a Magic Beast. Even though she had read many encyclopedias on Magic Beasts, none ntioned how to teach a Magic Beast to refine the Horizontal Bone.

Powerless, Tan Shuangshuang and Bai Sheng could only watch as Fei Hu, unable to refine the Horizontal Bone and unable to speak, beca dejected. They were so worried they almost scratched their heads bald.

No matter how worried Tan Shuangshuang and Bai Sheng were, they couldn’t help Fei Hu. They could only offer comforting words, advising Fei Hu not to be too disheartened. Bai Sheng even cited several fellow Winged Tiger examples, saying they didn’t refine the Horizontal Bone until reaching the Martial King Level, though Tan Shuangshuang suspected Bai Sheng was lying.

Regardless of the truth in Bai Sheng’s words, his comfort seed effective. Fei Hu was not as downcast. Now, with the war intensifying, Fei Hu could hardly spare much energy pondering how to refine the Horizontal Bone. Recently, the Demons’ offensives have intensified, and the interval between battles has shortened.

Every ti a battle ended and the battlefield was accounted for, the atmosphere grew increasingly gloomy. Even though supplies continued being replenished, the loss of life was too great. Each ti the Demons invaded, the Human Clan and Magic Beasts suffered nearly half casualties. Everyone deeply hated the Demons, yet they couldn’t completely obliterate them.

Whenever they couldn’t withstand the Human Clan, the Demons would retreat back into the Abyss. In the Abyss, aside from Demons, no living being could survive. Humans could not pursue into the Abyss to fight, making it completely invulnerable.

There have been human powerhouses who, determined to die, ventured into the Demon Realm to eradicate the Demons, but all contact was lost, and they never returned. The Demons always retreat to the Abyss, their most protective bastion, whenever they feel unable to continue fighting, hence they could never be wiped out completely.

After yet another exhausting battle concluded, a body aching Tan Shuangshuang was about to sit in her tent and ditate when she received a transmission from General Shang, inviting her to the main tent for a eting. General Shang was the person in charge of the army, and now that Tan Shuangshuang was already a Martial King Perfection level expert, she had the qualification to attend etings in the main tent.

When Tan Shuangshuang entered the main tent, besides General Shang, several other generals, Yan Xing—the manager of Wanyou Trading House—and the leaders of the Five Great Sects were already present.

Most of these people were senior to Tan Shuangshuang, so upon entering the tent, Tan Shuangshuang first perford the gestures of junior etiquette to greet them, then quietly sat beside her second master, Si Kaojing.

Although Tan Shuangshuang was qualified to join in discussions, being the youngest, the real decisions weren’t her turn to make. However, today’s situation was sowhat special, as everyone’s expressions were quite grave.

Seeing Tan Shuangshuang’s presence, General Shang spoke first with a grave expression, "Our supplies were hijacked again, and we still haven’t caught anyone. The military supplies are depleting fast. Although arrangents for the next batch are ready, if they’re hijacked again, it would be disastrous."

"This is the seventh ti. If the supplies fail to arrive, our water and food will run out. Then, we wouldn’t need those damn Demons to attack us; we’d collapse on our own."

The speaker was an extrely beautiful and outspoken woman, the biological mother of Murong Huating, and the current Sect Leader of Li Tian Sect, Murong Tianxing. Murong Tianxing had just arrived, and she was already at Half-step Martial Sect level before her arrival, now only lacking a small breakthrough to beco a Martial Venerate expert.

"Smash!" A handso middle-aged man suddenly slamd the table hard, his eyes glinting with fury as he gritted his teeth, "Damn it, if I find out who the bastard is that hijacked our supplies, I’ll kill him!"

The surrounding people remained silent, contemplatively pondering counterasures. The hijacking of supplies was no small matter, and in everyone’s hearts, they suspected it might very well be the work of one of Baiyue Country’s rival nations.

The other party seed to be trying to take advantage of this opportunity to deplete Baiyue Country’s national strength, knowing that the Demons are constantly surveilling. No matter how much Baiyue Country suffers, they must first swallow the loss, defeat the Demons, and then settle accounts with the opponent.

But if the supplies fall short and too many die on the Demon battlefield, even if Baiyue can drive off the Demons, they would suffer significant national vitality loss. Then it wouldn’t be Baiyue settling accounts with others but rather a matter of whether the other party would seize the opportunity to annex Baiyue Country.

Surrounding Baiyue Country are four nations with comparable land areas and national power. Ostensibly stable with their four-way power balance, beneath the surface, there’s been undercurrent competition; each desires to absorb the others for strength. Unable to swallow all three, even one conquered would suffice.

This incident most likely involves one of Baiyue’s neighboring countries taking advantage of the situation because with the Demons involved, Baiyue must endure any losses until after the Demons are handled.

The ans are utterly despicable and shaless, yet this underhanded thod heavily impacts Baiyue Country, potentially causing more than half of its national power to be lost after the Demon conflict!
