Shennong Dao Master-Chapter 1377 - 20: Race Against Death—Cloud Technique Divine Skills, Emperor Sword and Wu Yue God! (15,000 Words)_7

"The enemy is completely transparent to us." King Shenluo looked at the glorious battle results and couldn't help but marvel, "The battle results are brilliant indeed."

Tuoba Hong is equivalent to the Grand Commandant of the Holy Spirit Royal Court; Kalete, Sang Duxing, and Netherworld Soul Venerable are equivalent to the Chief Engineer and High Priest positions in the Holy Spirit Royal Court.

"I truly wonder how such intelligence was acquired, so advanced; surely it couldn't be that Kalete or Life Soul Venerable betrayed us?"

Even King Shenluo dared not think of someone at the level of the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate; he wouldn't even dare imagine it about Tuoba Hong, let alone the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate.

The Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate's current status is to be above Tuoba Hong.

"It truly is as if fortune favors Great Zhou."

...

The eighth year of Yuan Ding saw the end of the first phase of the attack on the Southern Barbarians, with the army crossing over Yin You Mountain.

In the eleventh year of Yuan Ding, the second phase of the strategy faced obstacles, but in the twelfth year, the war suddenly went smoothly again.

The three-line corps fiercely attacked the Southern Barbarian Royal Court, frequently achieving gains.

In the twelfth year of Yuan Ding, among the high-ranking leaders of the Holy Spirit Royal Court, only Tuoba Hong was left standing alone, as three defensive lines were successively broken, leading to most of the territory of the Holy Spirit Royal Court being overtaken.

In the thirteenth year of Yuan Ding, on the front battlefield of the Golden Feather Royal Court and Purple Dragon Royal Court, 'Tuoba Gong', 'Yu Feiyang', and 'Purple Qilin King' died in battle.

Among them, the Purple Qilin King was even the master of the court, and he personally led the expedition.

His death could be said to have added insult to injury for the Purple Dragon Royal Court.

First, the God in their totems had died, and now their King is gone too.

With the defection of the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate, the Southern Barbarians' three-line force suffered heavy losses.

Luo Hou King's second phase encirclement strategy was rapidly advancing.

The fourteenth year of Yuan Ding, winter.

Zhao Xing once again contacted the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate.

"Purple Bone, you need to prepare to escape."

"Luo Hou King's strategic encirclement is nearly complete; the encirclement of the ten Forbidden Armies around Southern Pillar Mountain is set for the Start of Spring day of the fifteenth year."

"Leave now?" The Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate hesitated somewhat. "No one in the royal court suspects me."

"How do you know if anyone suspects you?" Zhao Xing asked.

"I've been monitoring everything," said the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate, "I created Daoist Soldiers for the Keshen and Jiuyou God, these soldiers have hidden entrances; even the Artifact Souls are trained by me, outwardly respecting them as masters, but I am the true master."

Zhao Xing: "..."

The Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate was truly daring, even monitoring Keshen and Jiuyou God.

Zhao Xing suspected that the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate even considered thoughts against the Wu Yue God.

The reason he used Divine Weapon Mechanisms less in the past was here; Mechanical Masters had left Zhao Xing with a terrible impression.

Especially in the cosmic version, encountering someone without moral restraint meant even the bottom line would be exposed.

"Listen to me, prepare to leave," Zhao Xing took a deep breath, "Previously, the attacks were intense, the Southern Barbarians didn't even have time to review; battle after battle occurred, but now Great Zhou is about to encircle, giving them time to breathe. No matter how unbelievable, the suspicion will eventually fall on you."

"You've done enough already, there's no need to risk everything for a small gain."

Zhao Xing spoke with reason.

If the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate fled later, and if Absolute Heaven and Earth were deployed, escaping would be as hard as ascending to heaven.

"Alright." The Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate did not insist further, "I'll follow the plan to leave immediately."

...

The residence of the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate was in the most prosperous area of the Golden Feather Royal City.

But after the start of the Ping Man War, he moved outside the royal city, occasionally visiting the frontline to inspect arrays and defenses.

It wasn't that Purple Bone was very dedicated, it was purely for convenient escape.

However, in the eyes of the subjects of the Golden Feather Kingdom, the frequently ground-level visiting Purple Bone National Master was seen as a saint-like figure, with many even regarding Purple Bone as a new spiritual totem! Viewing him as the fifth god of the Southern Barbarians.

"Oh, it's truly nostalgic." Purple Bone sat in the Flying Boat, looking at his flags and statues atop the tower outside the city.

"Zero, I must say, I really am a bit reluctant."

"Where could I receive such treatment if I were to go to Great Zhou?"

The Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate touched the ribs at his waist.

"All mortals must die," came a voice from the ribs: "If you, master, stay in the Xuanhuang Realm, within a thousand years you'll have to perish."

"That's true." The Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate nodded, "I want to pursue freedom; if lifespan isn't free, if I can't live as long as I want, how can one talk of true freedom?"

"Xuanhuang Realm is still too small."

The Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate no longer hesitated, resolutely flying towards a frontier named 'Fulong Mountain.'

....

Using Fulong Mountain as a boundary, about ten thousand miles eastward, there's Great Zhou's forward fort.

Since the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate decided to return, Zhao Xing has been waiting here.

The contributions of the Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate were immense; his return plan was thus of extreme importance.

So, beneath the seemingly ordinary forward fort was actually the Star Dao Soldiers Sun and Moon Palace.

The formation was also unprecedentedly strong.

On the side of the Minister of Agriculture, strong figures included Zhao Xing, Cloud Sky Dao, Liu Tianning, Qiu Yuanshan, and Ling Tianchen.

On the side of the martial artists, there was Luo Hou King, Divine Residence Army Commander Dong Ze, Wuyao Army Commander 'Li Hao,' Beichen King Qin Feng.

High Priest Wei Hong, Chief Engineer Lu Ying, Junior Minister of Engineering Chen Ju, King Shenluo.

Great Fate Officer Ji Si, Ji Yun.

"Purple Bone Heavenly Venerate's life is worthwhile, so many of the major ministers came to receive him." Liu Tianning couldn't help but laugh, "Who has ever enjoyed such treatment?"

"He made great contributions, and indeed deserves it." Zhao Xing looked at the map in his hand; as the inheritor of Qing Yu Zi, he naturally came to receive the Purple Bone; he was the only contact person, and he must ensure the safety of the counterpart, which was the agreement he must adhere to.
