Chapter 473
"Who would have thought that when my lifespan is near its end, I would actually breakthrough."
Tie Yuanshan wasn't happy as he sighed.
If he had broken through to the late stage of the Origin Realm earlier, he might have been happy. But now that his lifespan was near its end, even breaking through to the late stage would not bring him much joy.
Other than that, there were a few reasons for his breakthrough.
Firstly, Tie Yuanshan, who was about to die, gave it his all.
Secondly, the nine divisions used up a huge amount of resources and manpower.
Thirdly, during the breakthrough process, most of the Origin Realm experts suffered from the backlash and were injured. Many of the initial stage Origin Realm experts even had their cultivation level unstable.
Luckily, Tie Yuanshan succeeded and all his efforts were not in vain.
"Congratulations Senior Tie for successfully breaking through to the late stage of the Origin Realm."
Patriarch Man Tu smiled.
Now that the Snow Mountain Tribe had a late stage Origin Realm expert, their upper echelon combat strength had once again surpassed the three southern kingdoms.
The war was not over yet, he must take revenge and kill Chen Yu!
"Senior Tie breaking through to the Origin Realm will definitely lead the Snow Mountain Tribe to unify the northern plains."
The Battle Alliance Tribe Leader said with anticipation.
Even if the unification of the northern plains was facilitated by Tie Yuanshan, his lifespan was near its end. By then, the Battle Alliance Tribe would still be the supreme ruler.
"I will do my best."
Tie Yuanshan said softly.
At his age, he no longer had any ambitions.
"It is time to discuss the counterattack plan."
The Iron Smelting Tribe Leader revealed a proud smile.
Right at this moment, a figure appeared at the entrance of the mine. It was the Snow Mountain Grand Shaman. He came at the right time, as if he had predicted Tie Yuanshan's breakthrough.
"I suggest to attack Chu with the speed of quick thunder and kill Chen Yu." The Grand Shaman said.
As soon as this plan was revealed, everyone's expressions changed slightly. They were somewhat moved.
Attack Chu and kill Chen Yu.
With the strength of the Snow Mountain Nine Divisions, if they attacked Chu, they would definitely be able to suppress them.
But the alliance between the three kingdoms had not been dissolved yet, and they could still reinforce each other quickly. This plan had a certain risk.
Although retreating immediately after killing Chen Yu was also a feasible plan, Chen Yu had no choice.
But if the reinforcements from the other two kingdoms arrived before Chen Yu was killed, it would be disadvantageous to the Snow Mountain Nine Divisions.
"Everything has risks, but this risk is relatively small. If we succeed, we can turn the situation around. If we fail, we still have a fighting chance."
The Grand Warlock continued.
He firmly believed in his divination that Chen Yu was the Snow Mountain Tribe's great malefic star. Only by getting rid of Chen Yu could the Snow Mountain Tribe's ambition be achieved.
"I support this plan."
Patriarch Man Tu said coldly.
Under the power of a late stage Origin Realm martial artist, would Chen Yu still have the strength to resist?
"Not a bad plan."
The Patriarch of Fighting League said in a low voice.
Meng Guang was killed by Chen Yu, and Meng Chixiong was also heavily injured. At this moment, he believed the Great Shaman's words very much. Chen Yu was the key to this war, and he had to be eliminated.
"Oh? This Chen Yu should be a peerless expert from the three southern countries. "
Tie Yuanshan didn't know anything about this war, but recently he had been hearing the name Chen Yu. It seemed that his opponent this time would be Chen Yu, so he was somewhat curious.
There was a moment of silence.
Everyone felt their faces burning, and they were extremely embarrassed.
Chen Yu wasn't considered a peerless expert from the three southern countries. He was just a young man in his twenties.
Every time they realized this, they would feel ashamed and unable to show their faces.
"Forefather, this Chen Yu is a young man."
The Iron Smelting Clan Patriarch transmitted a message.
"Oh?"
Tie Yuanshan's interest was piqued.
He was just a young man, yet the Snow Mountain Nine Divisions viewed him with such hatred that he had to personally deal with him.
It seemed like this young man must be very impressive.
For such a character to appear in the three southern countries, he had to be eliminated. Otherwise, there would be endless trouble.
… …
Chu Country, Bone Devil Palace.
Chen Yu and the Scarlet Flame King were still in seclusion.
After another month, the Scarlet Flame King's cultivation had completely stabilized, and his special eye had almost reached Xiaocheng.
Even though he didn't know how powerful it was, it definitely wouldn't be weak. Otherwise, the Scarlet Flame King wouldn't be interested in it.
Chen Yu's improvement wasn't small either. In this month, he had been increasing his cultivation while practicing his magic pattern battle technique. "Cloud Swallowing Devil Fist" was at the initial stage.
On this day, Ye Luofeng arrived.
"Is everything settled?"
Chen Yu asked.
Ye Luofeng nodded. She was a proud swordsman, and her yearning for the path of the strong wasn't any weaker than Chen Yu. Therefore, she wanted to return to Yunzhao Country, where the cultivation environment was better.
"Then let's go."
Chen Yu got up and was ready to leave. The Scarlet Flame King also stood up and shook his head, trying to get his spirits up.
However, just as they were about to set off, Palace Lord Fu rushed over.
"Palace Lord Fu, I won't disturb you any longer."
Chen Yu smiled. He thought that Palace Lord Fu was here to send him off.
"Elder Chen, something bad has happened."
Palace Lord Fu became even more panicked when she heard that Chen Yu was leaving.
"What's wrong?"
Chen Yu and the others were puzzled. They had a bad feeling.
"The top experts of the Snow Mountain Nine Divisions are attacking Chu Country. They are already on their way and will arrive soon."
Palace Lord Fu said in one breath.
"What?"
Everyone's expressions changed, and they were extremely shocked.
The three countries could only go against the Nine Divisions if they worked together. Now that the experts of the Nine Divisions had gathered and suddenly launched an attack on Chu Country, how could Chu Country be a match for the enemy?
The Snow Mountain Tribe was very secretive this time. Not many people even knew that Tie Yuanshan had broken through to the late stage of the Origin Realm.
Their plan was also discussed in secret. Once it was confirmed, they would act with quick thunder. Therefore, Chu Country only got wind of the news when they attacked Chu Country.
Chen Yu, Ye Luofeng, and the Scarlet Flame King knew that they couldn't leave this time. Furthermore, they were facing a huge crisis.
"Now, all the fighting forces of Chu Country are gathering towards the Bone Devil Palace. Hopefully, they can hold on for a period of time and wait for reinforcements from Qi Country and Yan Country."
Palace Lord Fu continued.
This incident was too serious. Qi Country and Yan Country would definitely send reinforcements immediately.
Once Chu Country fell, the Qi Country and Yan Country were destined to be in trouble.
"This is the only way."
Chen Yu had a grave expression.
Of the Snow Mountain Nine Divisions, the Blue Cauldron Tribe was destroyed. The remaining Origin Realm experts from the other eight divisions added up to about twenty.
Against such a terrifying lineup, Chu Country could only defend with all their might and wait for reinforcements.
"Seems like the Snow Mountain Tribe is going all out." Ye Luofeng said.
Right now, she was also in Chu Country and had to do her part.
Fortunately, when she left the High Sword Sect this time, she convinced the Sect to bring the Heaven Fault Sword and the Sky Moon Sword with her.
The Sky Moon Sword had a fragment of the Heaven Fault Sword. Ye Luofeng hoped that one day, she could repair the entire Heaven Fault Sword.
Of course, there were many reasons why the High Sword Sect was willing to hand over these two divine weapons.
Firstly, Ye Luofeng was already the High Sword Sect's Supreme Elder. Elder Duanmu's faction was unprecedentedly powerful and was helping Ye Luofeng with all their might.
Secondly, the High Sword Sect had seized a spirit artifact artifact during the battle.
Thirdly, the High Sword Sect had also purchased a flood dragon claw. There was hope that it could be forged into a spirit artifact.
In less than half a day, Shuiyue Sect, Iron Sword Sect, and Yunyue Sect had gathered at the Bone Devil Palace.
The entire Bone Devil Palace was bustling with activity. The Palace Protection Array and all sorts of arrays were ready. The three sects even moved some of their assets from the Sect over.
"Crimson Flame King, the situation is very unfavorable this time. It's time for you to act."
Chen Yu said to the Crimson Flame King.
No matter how well-prepared the Chu Nation was, it would be difficult for them to withstand the Nine Tribes of Snow Mountain. However, if they could hold on for a while longer, the situation would be reversed when the other two nations' reinforcements arrived.
"Alright."
The Crimson Flame King did not bargain and agreed immediately.
He wanted to return to the Yunzhao Nation as soon as possible.
Then, the Crimson Flame King came to the edge of the Bone Devil Palace and began to carve inscriptions.
At first, some people did not know what the Crimson Flame King was doing. As the lines gradually became richer, anyone who looked at them would feel that they were extraordinary. They were profound and obscure, as if they contained some kind of special power.
"This is an inscription technique. It's used to carve out some profound and powerful magical powers through inscriptions …"
The Absolute Yin Forefather stared at the Crimson Flame King in shock.
Even the Absolute Yin Forefather did not know such a technique.
Inscriptions were different from arrays. Arrays could be used continuously, and they could move or change forms.
However, inscription arrays could only be used once. Once all the magical powers contained in the inscriptions were released, the array would become useless.
"Could this sacred beast have really awakened its inherited memories? Otherwise, how could it have such profound techniques?"
The Absolute Yin Forefather sighed inwardly. Chen Yu was really lucky to have obtained such a sacred beast.
Four hours later, the Crimson Flame King stopped carving.
"There's not enough time. We can only carve a Purgatory Array first," the Crimson Flame King said.
Time passed slowly. Everyone in the Demon Bone Palace felt like a year.
At a certain moment, a smear of darkness appeared in the distant sky, and a violent wave of True Essence could be felt.
The wind and clouds rolled, and the smear of darkness expanded rapidly, turning into a huge dark cloud that shrouded the sky above the Demon Bone Palace.
This time, the Nine Tribes of Snow Mountain had only sent out Origin Realm and peak Qi Transformation Innate Realm cultivators. There were less than a hundred of them.
Because of this, their movements were even faster.
"Eh? Who's the leader? "
"I've never seen him before, but he's old. He's definitely not simple."
Everyone stared at the leader of the hundred people, but no one recognized him.
"Attack!"
Tie Yuanshan said calmly, but his eyes started searching. Finally, he fixed his gaze on Chen Yu.
"His target is me."
Chen Yu tensed up.
"Activate the Demon Bone Array."
Palace Head Fu immediately shouted.
Around the Demon Bone Palace, the formation patterns lit up. A huge wave of demonic qi surged out, forming huge black bone patterns that crisscrossed and connected together, forming a large array.
Boom! Bang!
Boom! The experts of the Nine Tribes launched their attacks simultaneously. A destructive storm crashed onto the Demon Bone Array.
The Demon Bone Array shook. On the entire array, cracks appeared on several of the black bone patterns.
"The Demon Bone Palace actually has such a powerful array."
The Battle Alliance Patriarch was a little surprised.
The founder of the Demon Bone Palace was an unknown expert. This array might be ancient and incomplete, but it was still extremely powerful and could withstand the attack of a late-stage Origin Realm expert.
"Patriarch, please make a move."
The Iron Smelting Clan Patriarch bowed slightly.
Instantly, everyone's gazes were fixed on him with respect and admiration.
Tie Yuanshan slowly took a few steps forward, which made him even more conspicuous.
Boom!
Tie Yuanshan's expression didn't change at all. The pressure of a late-stage Origin Realm was instantly released.
The dark clouds in the sky surged violently, and a terrifying pressure suddenly descended. Everything within a thousand miles was silent, as if Tie Yuanshan was suppressing everything.
