Chapter 564: Chapter 199: Sealing Langju_6
“Chen Sansi, I will remember this name!”
“But Chen Sansi, I fear you still don’t know that the seal on the Eastern Continent is damaged in many places and already at the brink of collapsing! I wonder how long you, this immature child, can strut around because of the seal!”
“Boom—”
As the voice faded, the gap closed.
Heaven and earth’s strange phenomena, everything returned to calm, no…
To be precise.
There was still Hongze Camp!
The ice dragon was still in fierce battle!
But without the augmentation of the black fog, the barbarian soldiers gradually regained their clarity from the frenzied state.
However.
They then saw.
That figure in the white robe.
Had already crossed the winds and snow, standing at the summit.
Behind him.
Were three Martial Saints of the Heavenly Clan.
Kneeling in death!
At his feet.
Lay the body of the High Priest of the Witch God Sect.
Everything…
Was over!
Their Heavenly Clan’s Martial Saints, exterminated!
In an instant.
The rout was like a breached dam.
The remaining seventy thousand plus barbarian army entered an irreversible route to a crushing defeat.
They discarded their helmets and armor.
They fled in panic.
They tumbled and wet themselves in fright.
They were totally terrified!
No one knew how many barbarian soldiers died under the standard long knives of the Beiliang Army and Hongze Camp, nor how many barbarian soldiers fell off the cliffs and smashed into a pulp while fleeing in disgrace.
This day.
Was the doomsday for the barbarian horde!
For the next hundred years.
The silhouette of that white-robed figure.
Would be deeply etched in the hearts of the barbarians!
This war.
Continued until dawn the next day.
Out of the one hundred thousand barbarian army, only twenty thousand survived.
Not a single Martial Saint was left.
All four Great Khans of the barbarian tribes, the highest commanders of various tribes, came to the white robe’s figure one after another and then… knelt down!
“General Chen!”
“I, we are willing to swear allegiance to you, to swear allegiance to Dasheng!”
“…”
What had they witnessed this day?
One man in a white robe.
Slain five Martial Saints!
One man forging the path for the entire army, slaughtering ten thousand without tiring!
In the end, even with a single spear.
Killed the High Priest of the Witch God Sect!
What was destroyed was not just the Array Eye.
But also the very…
Fate of their barbarian tribe!
With such heavy losses.
It would be impossible to recover for over fifty years.
Other than submission, what choice did they have?
…
Amidst the clouds.
The Daqing Empress had never left, her flying sword still stained with the fresh blood of an Ancient Demon Clan cultivator.
She quietly watched the figure on the mountaintop, her deep eyes betraying no emotion.
Finally.
She did not show her face; she maneuvered the flying sword into the air and left, returning to Daqing.
The red sun rose in the sky.
The wind and snow calmed.
The desolate battlefield.
Corpses were strewn everywhere.
Chen Sansi stood atop the summit of Langjuxu Mountain, overlooking the surroundings for a hundred miles.
“My lord!”
Zhao Kang, covered in blood, came forward holding the broken He Miao Blade to give the final summary:
“This battle!”
“Our Hongze Camp slaughtered eighty thousand of the Enemy Army, captured more than twenty thousand, and seized an innumerable amount of provisions and livestock. Or in other words… the entire grassland now belongs to us!”
Chen Sansi was unconcerned with the spoils; he merely asked indifferently, “And the casualties?”
“The casualties…”
Upon hearing this, Zhao Kang trembled, “Were also grievous. Since the Agate River, until now, the total deaths have surpassed seven thousand, and there are also over two thousand wounded…”
Hongze Camp came with.
Fifteen thousand men.
Now, barely eight thousand remain.
Casualties approaching half.
If one counts from Huqiu Mountain.
On this northern campaign.
They had accumulated over one hundred thousand enemy deaths. Not only did they travel ten thousand miles in a forced march, but they also often faced High Realm Martial Artists and extremely adverse Heavenly Phenomena. Having merely eight thousand casualties was already an unprecedented miracle.
But these eight thousand lives.
Still piled up to form a mountain of corpses.
Atop Langjuxu Mountain, Chen Sansi stood beside the altar, remaining for a long time without leaving.
“My lord.”
Xia Cong cautiously said, “The battle is over; we can descend the mountain now!”
“Right,”
Xiao Zheng followed, “The Barbarian Capital City is empty; it’s the perfect place for our grand army to rest for a while. This time, the brothers are truly exhausted.”
Chen Sansi placed his hand on the broken altar, gazed at the corpses that covered the mountains, and ordered solemnly:
“The entire army, rest for five days.
“After five days,
“We shall burn incense and offer sacrifices to heaven right here on Langjuxu Mountain!”
“What?!”
Aside.
Several Great Khans of the Barbarians shuddered upon hearing this.
“General Chen!”
Tuoba Hongxin said, trembling, “This, this might not be appropriate?”
Langjuxu Mountain.
Was the birthplace of their Sky Clan.
It was also their symbol!
Said to rival Ziwei Mountain.
But in reality, Langjuxu Mountain held a far greater significance in the hearts of the Sky Clan than Ziwei Mountain.
If they were to burn incense and pay homage to heaven here,
It would be tantamount to declaring to their ancestors that the Sky Clan was no more!
The humiliation was beyond words.
“Inappropriate?”
Chen Sansi sat on Tuoba Great Khan’s antlered chair and looked down at the four kneeling Barbarian Great Khans, “Then perhaps you’d like to properly explain to me what’s inappropriate about it?”
“Appropriate, appropriate, very appropriate!”
Murong Great Khan quickly said, “If General Chen wishes to offer sacrifices to heaven, then let it be. Since the Sky Clan now belongs to Dasheng, the land of Langjuxu Mountain naturally belongs to Dasheng too. Whatever General Chen wishes to do, there’s no need to seek our opinion.”
What choice did they have but to acquiesce?
Five days later.
In the Yin Mountain Range, atop Langjuxu Mountain.
Chen Sansi led the eight thousand soldiers of the Hongze Camp, at the sacrificial altar on the mountain summit.
A ceremony to offer sacrifices to heaven!
Thereafter,
In the Barbarian Capital, a ritual to consecrate the earth was held.

In this battle, fifteen thousand soldiers from Hongze Camp,
Led by Chen Sansi,
Drank from the icy rivers, sealed Langju Xu, and consecrated the Barbarian Capital!
Not long after,
The Four Barbarian Tribes abandoned the Great Capital, leading the surviving embers of their tribes north of the Yin Mountains, and signed a covenant promising never again to invade the fertile lands of Dasheng.
After this war, the Southern Desert was left without a royal court!
