After all the sacrifices have been made to speed pass, who is still practicing hard skills?

Chapter 483: Yangshen Thunder Tribulation! The Tribulation of the Martial Saint!
"If you want to die, you can try."

As soon as these words were spoken, the old man in black robe became a little confused. He wondered if Yao Yue was bluffing, but no matter how he looked at it, he couldn't guess the truth.

After thinking for a few breaths, he fell into silence.

The surrounding atmosphere suddenly turned into a weird one.

Everyone knows that if the Martial Saints fail to reach an agreement through negotiation, a war even more horrific than the previous one will break out, and by then, everyone may die.

After a long time, it was the old man in black robe who finally broke the silence. With the surrounding void sealed, the bronze door was unable to call on others for help.

Once the war starts, he will definitely not be able to win against two people alone.

The only option given the current situation is a ceasefire.

"Today's battle was provoked by Li Chengguo. Both sides have their own grievances. How about a ceasefire today?"

Yao Yue did not answer and turned her gaze to Jiang Che below.

Jiang Che naturally understood this look.

If he didn't agree, Yao Yue would never let him speak. It was obvious that she allowed him to speak only after he compromised. Jiang Che guessed that they would stop fighting under such circumstances.

It is very likely that something went wrong at the northern border. He took a deep breath and nodded immediately:
"can."

The old man in black robe took a deep look at Jiang Che and memorized his face completely. Even though Jiang Che was only a Yuanshen Venerable now, he still felt threatened.

Because he has been watching since the beginning of the war.

He saw with his own eyes that Jiang Che killed several venerables, suppressed the Black and White Devils with absolute power, and even forcibly killed the Blind White Demon under siege.

This resulted in the loss of a Martial Saint Seed in the Witch God Temple.

The Martial Saint is an extremely honorable existence no matter where he is placed. Even the Temple of the Witch God is no exception. It can be said that the loss is huge.

If the old sword master and Yao Yue from Jian Ge had not shown up before, he would have attacked Jiang Che by force even at the risk of tearing up the alliance, but he couldn't do it now.

"If I become a saint in the future, I will come to fight you and give the old blind man an explanation." The black evil Xie Changan suddenly spoke, and his expression showed no emotion. The old blind man's body was shattered and his soul was annihilated by Jiang Che.

Nothing was left from the inside to the outside. Even if he wanted to bury him, he could only find a cenotaph. It was impossible for him to let go of this hatred easily.

"I'm waiting for you to die."

Jiang Che's expression was calm, without any psychological fluctuations at all.

For him, let alone the threat from a Yuanshen Venerable, even if it was a threat from a Martial Saint, he would not take it seriously as long as he was given some time.

"it is good."

Xie Changan nodded, turned around and stepped into the void.

Qingqing, on the other hand, lowered her head, and did not dare to look at Grandpa Xie's eyes. After all, she was the one who reminded Jiang Che first, otherwise, the result might be different.

My heart suddenly felt complicated.

After Jiang Che agreed to a ceasefire, the war came to an end. The great masters of the divine physiognomy on both sides breathed a sigh of relief and began to retreat.

But no matter how you look at it, the number of people on both sides has decreased a lot.

On Jiang Che's side, there are Yu Weishui, Liu Sanqiu, a grandmaster from the Qi family, a grandmaster from the Tiannan Gao family, a grandmaster from the Jianghe family, and the grandmaster from the Jianghu who came to help, the leader of the Tianhe sect, Sui Shengjie.

A total of six grand masters died.

The rest of the people were also injured.

Wei Changping, the head of the Wei family, was almost destroyed, Qi Tianzhong suffered serious injuries, Qi Tianhe lost an arm, Ao Kun's scales were smashed to pieces, and the sword master Liu Yuan was seriously injured.

Of the 200,000 soldiers below, nearly one third were killed, and the rest were injured. Li Kuang even had an arm cut off, and his breath was weak. The entire Yangping Pass was destroyed.

The casualties were heavy.

However, compared with Jiang Che's side, the Baiyue coalition forces and Li Chengguo who came to support from the rear suffered even heavier casualties. More than half of the five top Venerables of Baiyue were killed, leaving only two.

More than half of the twenty great masters of divine appearance were killed, leaving only nine.

There were originally twenty-five great masters of divine appearance, but after a great battle, only eleven were left.

There were corpses everywhere on the ground.

Nearly half of the 300,000 Baiyue rebel troops were killed, and at least 120,000 to 130,000 soldiers were buried at Yangping Pass.

Of the group of grand masters brought by Li Chengguo, only two of his adopted sons are left. The several grand masters of divine physiognomy who came to help from the Qingtian Sect have been completely wiped out at this moment.

The Dharma King Yin Suxin's body was shattered by Jiang Che, leaving only his soul which disappeared without a trace.

Pei Hongyi turned against them and Li Chengguo was seriously injured.

Of the ten grand masters, only three were left, and most of them were killed or wounded.

However, of the 60,000 Zhennan troops, which joined the war relatively late and were the most elite, there are only about 40,000 left.

In terms of casualties, the Baiyue coalition suffered more than twice as much as Jiang Che's side.

The ground was already covered with broken limbs and arms, and the flowing blood had even turned the area of ​​more than ten miles into red. A strong fishy smell filled the air between heaven and earth.

The battle flag was planted in the ground, fluttering in the strong wind.

It has a bit of the meaning of the setting sun being blood-red.

In a great battle, more than 20 grand masters died on the spot and hundreds of thousands of soldiers turned into corpses. The tragedy was so tragic that it is difficult to describe in words. At this moment, both sides are silently licking their wounds.

A murderous atmosphere filled the air and everyone began to retreat.

But Jiang Che did not retreat completely at this moment, because he still had one thing to do, which was to kill Li Chengguo.

In the previous battle, Jiang Che had a chance to kill Li Chengguo on the spot, but first he was attacked by the remnant spirit of the Martial Saint of the Blood Sea Sect, and then the Black and White Devils attacked brazenly.

Leaving him no time to be distracted.

But even so, he knew that Li Chengguo would not die so soon.

At this moment, his spiritual consciousness began to dissipate, and a faint majestic voice resounded throughout the world:

"Li Chengguo, now that things have come to this, come out and accept your death. Since you have defended the border for the country for many years, I can give you a decent death."

The sudden noise made everyone present silent again. Many people then remembered that Li Chengguo, the instigator of this war, seemed to be still alive. His two adopted sons looked at each other.

They all fell into silence.

"Hehehehahaha."

Just as Jiang Che finished his words, a helpless yet somewhat relieved laugh sounded from underground. Then, the wind and clouds between heaven and earth suddenly changed, and an overwhelming pressure slowly dissipated.

On the ground, countless amounts of blood were quickly swallowed up by the ground.

Such a strange scene made Jiang Che's face darken slightly.

Again? !
Even if he comes again, he will die.

Yao Yue and the old swordsman are here. Even if Li Chengguo has some martial arts skills as a backup, he will die here.

However, it is obvious that this is not Li Chengguo's backup plan.

As changes occurred between heaven and earth, most people did not know what was going on, but Yao Yue and the Old Sword Saint understood the problem: someone was stirring up the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation in an attempt to transcend the tribulation and become a saint.

There was silence on the ground for a few moments. Suddenly, as if something strange had happened, the ground cracked, revealing a huge gap.

At the same time, a bright red blood ball several feet wide rose from the ground, and countless blood gathered into a stream and flowed towards the blood ball. A figure appeared and disappeared in the blood ball, as if it had emerged from a cocoon. Jiang Che looked closely and saw that it was Li Chengguo. At this moment, Li Chengguo had long messy hair, a strong body with white flesh, and all the previous injuries disappeared without a trace, as if he had returned to his peak.

Through the bloody world, Li Chengguo looked at Jiang Che and said without any sadness or joy:

“Back then, the Qingtian Sect promised to help me overcome the tribulation and become a saint, and to condense the Blood Source Divine Pearl to make up for my foundation. The price was the blood essence of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of people. They wanted to use the people of Yuezhou as the price.

I did not agree. Although I, Li Chengguo, have ambitions to become a saint and achieve the throne, I would not use the blood of the Yue people to lay the foundation for my sainthood. For this reason, I have been hesitating.

Later, you suddenly broke off relations with me, ruined my reputation, and left me with no way out. Yin Suxin still advised me to overcome the tribulation immediately, but I still refused.

Instead, I plan to use the blood of those barbarians to help me become a saint. To this end, I did not hesitate to contact them and make plans. Originally, I wanted to take advantage of the invasion of the Baiyue coalition by the Yangping Pass to fight with you to a mutual defeat, and then take the opportunity to turn against you and severely damage the Baiyue coalition in one fell swoop.

You used the blood of three hundred thousand barbarians to condense the Blood Source Pearl. Unfortunately, man proposes, God disposes. Who could have thought that you would succeed in overcoming the tribulation and achieve the Primordial Spirit in such a short time.

You have such strength that you make me, a mere nobody, look so ridiculous. Your strength is so great that I cannot rival you. I have practiced hard for hundreds of years and tried my best, but I am still no match for you.

But, I still have one last chance. I want to take a gamble and overcome the calamity to become a saint. Today, this place has gathered the blood and essence of more than 200,000 people, as well as the legacy of many great masters of divine appearances.

Jiang Che, do you think I can become a saint today?"

"Even if you become a saint, you won't survive today."

Jiang Che retreated as he spoke, and did not take any action to interrupt Li Chengguo's breakthrough.

It's not that he is soft-hearted, but once the tribulation phenomenon is triggered, it cannot be stopped. If he forcefully acts, he will definitely be enveloped by the thunder tribulation. For him, the tribulation now is a death tribulation.

Even Yao Yue and the old sword master of Jiange restrained their auras at this moment, fearing that they would be targeted by the heavenly calamity.

But that's only for now.

When the heavenly calamity is over, even if Li Chengguo succeeds in breaking through, he will not be able to leave alive. After all, no matter how strong he is, he is just a Martial Saint at the beginning, while Yao Yue and the old Sword Saint.

However, he became a saint a long time ago, and the gap between the two sides cannot be easily made up.

"I know, but I have nothing to rely on now. I can only fight hard to have a chance of survival. If I don't force myself to survive, I will die here today."

Li Chengguo actually knows this better than anyone else.

His hope of surviving the tribulation is very slim.

The Nine-story Blood Tower disappeared into the turbulent void, and his body and soul suffered severe damage. Although a lot of it was compensated by the Blood Source Pearl, it was still not completely replenished, and now he was forcibly passing the tribulation.

A narrow escape from death.

But the problem is, he no longer has any choice.

The war is over, and the Martial Saint is in charge.

If he doesn't overcome the tribulation, he will have no choice but to surrender.

Li Chengguo was a hero all his life, and was feared by all the Yue people. Even if he died, he should have died gloriously. And if he was lucky enough to survive the calamity, and if he really wanted to leave.

There may not be no chance to live.

He's going to risk everything to give it a try.

"In that case, then you just need to survive the tribulation."

Jiang Che fled more than ten miles away, and his voice resounded in the void.

Li Chengguo was silent for a few breaths, and then a voice came out from the blood cocoon again:
"Jiang Che, how about making a promise?"

"What agreement?"

“I know that the Qingtian Cult will not be so kind as to help me become a saint. This blood source bead gathers the essence and blood of hundreds of thousands of people. It is extremely complicated and needs to be refined before it can be of great use.

The thunder tribulation is the best way to refine the blood. If I fail to survive the tribulation, I will find a way to preserve the refined blood source divine pearl and give it to you. As a price, you must not kill all the existing Zhennan Army.

They were all good men who had served their country and should not have died in such a cowardly way."

Such an agreement was extremely beneficial to Jiang Che. He couldn't think of any way to refuse it. After all, he had always been very envious of the Zhennan Army, and if it had Li Chengguo's endorsement.

After that, it would be easy to subdue the Zhennan Army.

He nodded immediately:

"Okay, I promise you."

"Thank you."

Li Chengguo exhaled a breath of foul air, then turned his gaze to the tens of thousands of Zhennan troops arrayed in the distance, and said loudly:

"All the generals of the Zhennan Army, listen up. If this marquis dies under the thunderbolt today, you will immediately serve the champion marquis Jiang Che. No one is allowed to commit suicide to follow me. Anyone who disobeys this order will be expelled from the Zhennan Army."

"I will obey the order of the Marquis!"

"I will obey the order of the Marquis!"

After a few moments of silence, the remaining 40,000 Zhennan Army and even Li Chengguo's two adopted sons all knelt down and saluted in the direction of Li Chengguo to show that they obeyed his orders.

"Damn Li Chengguo!"

"What an ungrateful person!"

Yin Suxin, who was hiding far away, was furious when she heard that Li Chengguo was going to give the Blood Source Pearl that had withstood the thunder tribulation to Jiang Che. Even if it was destroyed, he shouldn't give it to Jiang Che!
Have you forgotten who was the culprit for today's defeat?

It was a pity that at this moment she could only feel furious in her heart and dared not make even the slightest sound.

bang
Above the void, a sea of ​​thunder filled the air, covering an area of ​​dozens of miles. Thunders of various colors intertwined, emitting a terrifying aura that made people's hearts palpitate, as if it could destroy anyone's body and soul.

The vital energy of heaven and earth was in turmoil, and dark clouds gathered in the sky.

In just a short moment, this place was transformed into a desperate situation. Everyone fled in all directions like snakes and scorpions, while Li Chengguo sat cross-legged in the blood cocoon.

A hundred breaths later, Li Chengguo opened his eyes and sensed the breath of thunder that was about to fall.

He laughed wildly three times:

“Hahaha, today, if I, Li Chengguo, succeed, I will be a Martial Saint. If I fail, I will be a Ghost Hero!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Chengguo and the blood cocoon rose into the air together, with an indomitable momentum. Without any hesitation, they rushed into the sea of ​​thunder.

Rumble.
Thunder exploded and the void shook.

Thunders of various colors intertwined, and several lightning nets flashed in the void. Everyone looked at the movement in the void with awe.

Heavenly calamity, heavenly calamity.

It is a thunder punishment from heaven. If it succeeds, one will become a saint, dominating the world; if it fails, one will become a ghost, and both his body and soul will be destroyed.

Even Jiang Che was staring at the thunder tribulation in the void at this moment, trying to see some clues and accumulate experience for the future. Unfortunately, he was disappointed.

Apart from being able to see lightning flashing across the sky and earth, and the suffocating aura of thunder and lightning, he could not sense anything useful, let alone gain anything.

If I have to say there is something I gained, it is only the awe of thunder tribulation.

After about dozens of breaths, the thunder and lightning in the sky suddenly stopped, and then, in full view of everyone, the thunder and lightning in the sky slowly began to dissipate, leaving only a ray of golden light breaking through the clouds.

Everyone was nervous, wondering whether Li Chengguo would succeed or fail.
