Lu Changsheng nodded and didn’t say much.
"If the Heavenly Fiend True Monarch is slain, Liang Country will be short of a True Monarch, and with support from Jiang Country, this war might co to an early halt."
"However, this battle mainly depends on Beast God Mountain. Not only has a second Nascent Soul True Lord broken through, but they have also nurtured multiple Fourth Rank Beast Kings. In this situation, they will definitely not cease fighting easily."
"I heard from my master that these Beast Kings are raised using secret techniques, have short lifespans, and are used for intense warfare. Once the war stops, the resources plundered by Beast God Mountain are not enough to cover the cost of these Fourth Rank Beast Kings."
Lu Qingshan said in a solemn tone.
Although he had never seen the Fourth Rank Beast Kings cultivated by Beast God Mountain, he had heard from his master about their terrifying presence.
Regular Nascent Soul Immortals are not even a match for these Beast Kings.
"Heavenly Fiend True Monarch, Fourth Rank Beast Kings..." .
Nearby, Lu Miaoge, Lu Miaohuan, and others clicked their tongues.
Nascent Souls seed distant to them.
But this war had already involved Nascent Soul level powerhouses.
"Father, is the Heavenly Fiend True Monarch the Nascent Soul True Lord of Liang Country’s Heavenly Slaughter Sect? How could such a level of cultivator be killed?"
Lu Qingqi, like a naive little child, asked.
If she hadn’t previously seen Lu Quanzhen in action, she’d have thought that Foundation Establishnt cultivators rarely fought to the death, let alone the legendary Nascent Soul True Lords.
"There are differences among Nascent Souls. During the pioneering war, the Heavenly Fiend True Monarch, Five Poisons Cult Leader, and the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master all attacked together. However, Xuanjian True Monarch suppressed the Heavenly Fiend True Monarch with one sword and later set up a sword array, slaying his physical body. Even the Nascent Soul Spirit Body couldn’t escape into the Great Void."
This matter is classified, known only to the upper echelons of Jiang Country’s late-stage Core Formation cultivators.
But when his children asked, Lu Changsheng didn’t hide anything.
"Xuanjian True Monarch!"
Hearing this na, Lu Qingshan’s sword-like eyebrows raised, his eyes shot out two sharp gleams as he asked, "Father, have you seen this Xuanjian True Monarch in action? How strong is he?" ŘãƝ𝔬ʙЁṦ
"I rember that early on, this Xuanjian True Monarch single-handedly defeated the Five Poisons Cult Leader and the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master, and now he should be even more formidable."
Nearby, Lu Miaoge also comnted with a water-like elegance.
As a Jiang Country cultivator, she had a strong filter of admiration towards legendary cultivators like Xuanjian True Monarch and Azure Phoenix True Monarch, whose reputations she had heard since childhood.
"Very strong, his sword intent is unparalleled, truly a sword that breaks ten thousand spells."
Lu Changsheng said seriously.
Holding the Great Luo Sword Embryo in his hand, he was confident he could contend against the Heavenly Corpse Sect Master and the Five Poisons Cult Leader.
But when facing that Xuanjian True Monarch, he had no confidence whatsoever.
"I hope to seek advice on the Sword Dao from this Xuanjian True Monarch in the future."
Lu Qingshan’s eyes were bright, like blazing stars.
Although he wasn’t the type to crazily seek duels, he had long admired this first Sword Cultivator of not just Jiang Country, but also Yue and Liang Countries, Xuanjian True Monarch.
"If only you had joined the Heavenly Sword Sect back in the day, Qingshan."
By his side, Lu Miaohuan remarked with so regret.
She knew her son’s talent in the Sword Dao was exceptional, and if he had joined the Heavenly Sword Sect, not only would returning ho have been convenient, but he wouldn’t be in such danger now.
"Mother, I’m doing well in the Jinyang Sect."
Lu Qingshan smiled and said.
He was now one of the seeds being intensely nurtured by Jinyang Sect, and once he breaks through to Core Formation, he would be a Nascent Soul Seed of the Jinyang Sect.
Moreover, Primordial True Monarch held high hopes for him, and as long as he perford well in the subsequent wars, surpassing other geniuses, he could rely on the Nascent Soul resources released by Primordial Sect and Purple Light Sect and have hopes of reaching Nascent Soul stage.
But thinking about the hints given by Primordial True Monarch, he felt so headache.
Seeing her sister, Lu Miaoge, lightly pursing her red lips, Lu Miaohuan realized she misspoke.
Her sister had always felt guilty and self-reproachful about Qingshan and Qingzhu joining Jinyang Sect. She imdiately asked, "How is Little Bamboo doing now? With the war being so dangerous, once you break through to Core Formation, can you bring Little Bamboo ho or keep her in the sect?"
"Little Bamboo is doing well, mainly because she is unwilling. You, father, mother, aunt, should persuade her later."
Lu Qingshan said helplessly.
Based on his rits, he could have easily gotten the sect elders to bend the rules and place his sister, Lu Qingzhu, at the rear of the sect.
But his sister worried about him taking risks on the front lines and thus refused to stay in the sect.
This ti returning to the rear was to allow him to return to the sect with peace of mind for closed-door cultivation and Core Formation.
Thinking about these things made Lu Qingshan feel a headache.
His younger sister, despite her gentle and soft deanor, was inwardly strong and didn’t want to rely on him for everything.
The family rested at the marketplace for a couple of days before continuing their journey.
On the way, they even saw a destroyed marketplace turned into ruins.
Even though on the surface the Liangyue War had eased.
But from this, one could tell that the situation in Yue Country was not good and was clearly at a disadvantage.
The heartland had already been infiltrated by Liang Country, with robber cultivators and demon cultivators secretly sabotaging and instigating rebellion.
...
A month later, Lu Changsheng gazed towards the frontline direction.
Having been used to traveling via the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, such a journey by Spirit Boat was sowhat torturous for him.
He planned to take ti to forge a fine Third Rank Spirit Boat upon returning ho.
While it may not match the speed of the Golden-Winged Heavenly Peng, at least it would be more comfortable and quicker.
"It should be about seven days more until we reach the front line."
Lu Qingshan looked in the direction of the front line and spoke, missing his sister.
Though there was no danger in the rear.
But having witnessed the situation along the way, a sliver of worry lingered in his heart.
If sothing were to happen to his sister, he would not only be unable to forgive himself but also unable to face his father and aunt.
"Huh!?"
At this mont, Lu Changsheng suddenly felt sothing.
