Wu Shattered Star River

Despite Kan Wuyu's immediate order for the army to retreat, it still resulted in a complete rout.

There was no way around it!

The Black Blood Mountain kept crushing forward, and the army simply couldn't form an effective resistance.

The Radiant Path army followed the Black Blood Mountain, charging and killing.

Initially, the army was retreating, but it gradually began to disintegrate, eventually turning into a complete rout.

Once the army lost its structure and couldn't be commanded, it became a disorganized rabble, slaughtered by the well-organized army on the other side.

Led by the Black Blood Mountain, the Radiant Path army pursued relentlessly, successively recovering over a dozen cities.

Nearly a hundred million soldiers were slaughtered, leaving only thirty million.

These thirty million soldiers retreated directly into the River of Gods; otherwise, they would likely have been pursued further.

Kan Wuyu and a group of Dao Ancestor Realm Ninth Level cultivators didn't die in battle, but some were injured, and the same was true on the Radiant Path side.

After five days, the army arrived at the third stronghold, but the army there had already retreated, withdrawing directly north of the River of Gods.

Kan Wuyu had issued the order to retreat in advance!

Without a way to break the Black Blood Mountain, there was little point in the army remaining in the Radiant Path.

Staying would only be courting death, unless they relied on the city's grand formations to resist, but that would only delay them for a while.

Once the grand formations were broken, the ultimate outcome would still be defeat.

Not only on this battlefield, but Kan Wuyu also ordered a retreat on the other battlefields.

Essentially, all the armies began to retreat towards the Dark Path!

The Dark Path had spent several years, with several hundred million soldiers dying in battle, and had painstakingly captured over a hundred cities, but now they were handing them back, returning them to the Radiant Path.

Many strong individuals on the Dark Path side were unwilling, but they knew there was no choice.

With people, land can be regained; without people, both people and land are lost.

Territory could be retaken later, but if too many soldiers died this time, it would damage their foundation.

Not only would they be unable to occupy these territories, but even the Dark Path's own territory would be in danger.

After receiving the news, Pei Tianhu didn't lead the army to continue the pursuit.

Instead, he ordered the armies on each front to move north and take over the territory.

Pei Tianhu, along with a group of strong individuals and Jiang Han, returned to Jade Void Mountain, which was the main base on the front lines, allowing them to control the overall situation.

Feedback indicated that the Dark Path's army was gradually retreating, and it was estimated that they would completely withdraw from the Radiant Path's territory within a month, returning to the Dark Path.

After receiving the news, Pei Tianhu and the Pei family's strong individuals were extremely excited.

They had fought bitterly for several years, and the situation had not improved.

A group of strong individuals had racked their brains, thinking of countless ways, but ultimately they had been unable to recover the lost territory, or even stop the decline.

They never expected that Jiang Han alone would reverse the situation, easily recovering the lost territory.

This reversal was too quick, making many strong individuals feel like they were dreaming.

After staying at Jade Void Mountain for a few days, Ancestor Xu returned, bringing Pei Zhu with him.

He had brought back the Sea King Divine Seal fragment from Yu Yu of the Island of Life.

Ancestor Xu took Pei Zhu there because Pei Zhu was Jiang Han's wife, so Yu Yu naturally wouldn't say anything and readily returned the Sea King Divine Seal fragment.

Yu Yu didn't know what the fragment was, she just felt it was a treasure.

Ancestor Xu glanced at the fragment and had some doubts in his heart, but he didn't take it, letting Pei Zhu put away the Sea King Divine Seal fragment.

Yu Yu asked Pei Zhu to convey her apology, and repeatedly emphasized that she really didn't know about the Dark Path's ambush in Eternal Life Heaven, and she absolutely didn't participate in it.

Yu Yu could tell at a glance that she was the kind of little girl who was not deeply involved in the world, and Ancestor Xu and Pei Zhu naturally believed her.

Believing Yu Yu didn't mean that Ancestor Xu and Pei Zhu believed the Gate of Life!

This matter was obviously condoned by the Sect Master of the Gate of Life, who was hedging his bets.

But Ancestor Xu and Pei Zhu couldn't investigate these matters, they were just there to retrieve the treasure.

Now that the treasure had been retrieved, Pei Tianhu immediately asked Pei Zhu to send it to Jiang Han, and instructed Jiang Han to ask for anything he needed.

As long as the Radiant Society had it, he could give it to him.

Jiang Han had performed an unprecedented feat this time, and no amount of reward would be too much.

Pei Tianhu was also a bit troubled, wondering how to reward Jiang Han this time, after all, Jiang Han's contribution this time was too great.

Pei Zhu and Ancestor Xu entered the Black Blood Mountain.

Jiang Han sensed that Pei Zhu was a little excited, and Pei Zhu burst into tears after entering, choking up several times.

Jiang Han didn't chat much with Pei Zhu, and asked Ancestor Xu to take out all the cultivators suppressed inside.

Let them deal with the insane ones themselves, and see if they could recruit the sane ones.

Then Jiang Han asked Pei Zhu to put the Sea King Divine Seal fragment on the stone wall of the Black Blood Mountain.

The Divine Seal fragment flashed with light and was sucked in.

Ancestor Xu took a group of cultivators out, and Pei Zhu stayed inside to observe the situation, so that she could arrange things if Jiang Han needed anything.

There was a small space inside the Black Blood Mountain, and a fragment floated in this small space.

"Buzz~"

A large fragment appeared in the space, next to the small fragment.

The two fragments suddenly lit up with a brilliant blue light, and under the illumination of the blue light, the two Sea King Divine Seal fragments began to merge.

This time, the fusion didn't take too long, only about half a day passed before the two fragments merged together.

At this moment, the entire Black Blood Mountain flashed and trembled slightly.

Jiang Han had a trace of mental connection with the entire Sea King Divine Seal fragment, which was stronger than before, but it couldn't be said to be very strong.

In other words, Jiang Han had refined a small part of the divine seal, but most of it had not been refined.

Jiang Han's soul sense could only sense three spaces, and the other spaces could not be sensed.

At this moment, the Sea King Divine Seal's aura became extremely powerful, and a mysterious and unpredictable aura flowed out of the Sea King Divine Seal.

If Ancestor Xu could see the Divine Seal fragment at this moment, even if he was blind, he could feel the powerful aura of the Supreme God above it, and could easily distinguish that this was the Divine Seal of the Supreme God.

Jiang Han's soul sense swept inside, and suddenly he felt a powerful suction force, and his soul was suddenly sucked into a space inside the Sea King Divine Seal—a space that he couldn't sense or probe before.

There was nothing in the space, it was empty.

His soul wandered around inside, but found nothing.

While he was surprised, the space fluctuated slightly, and then wisps of residual weak soul power gathered inside, eventually condensing into a tall man in blue armor.

"Sea King Supreme God!"

Jiang Han's soul sense swept over and his heart shook.

He had seen this man before, and he was exactly the same as the statue in the Sea King Divine Palace.

Should this be a phantom formed by the Sea King Supreme God's remnant soul?

The tall man's phantom stared at Jiang Han, and a wave of soul sense came over, and then a piece of information appeared in Jiang Han's soul: "Young man, you can find all of this King's Divine Seal fragments, which proves that you and I are destined.

This Divine Seal is this King's Dharma Seal, and can be passed on to you today."

"As this King's successor, you must agree to this King's three requirements, otherwise this King will not allow you to use the Divine Seal, are you willing?"
