680: Chapter Frost Monarch, Post-War Harvest

In this life-and-death struggle, Luo Xiu and Tian Han’s figures intertwined, gun shadows and fist winds interwoven, each collision seemingly tearing apart this heaven and earth.

The two were evenly matched, constantly clashing, causing spatial rifts to appear in the sky.

Fortunately, these spatial rifts were rapidly recovering, otherwise, who knew if the sky would be pierced!

Finally, after the most intense exchange, both simultaneously flew backward, each drawing a long trajectory in the air.

When he landed, Tian Han’s chest was pierced with several fist-sized holes, and even his long spear was broken.

Luo Xiu’s face was also slightly pale, with traces of blood at the corner of his mouth, clearly indicating that this battle had also consumed a great deal of his energy.

All around, it was a mess, so quiet that only the two’s heavy breathing could be heard.

“You are not Tian Han, who are you?”

This was the first time Luo Xiu had encountered such a formidable opponent since he had a Breakthrough to the Emperor Realm, even though he had gone through a series of intense battles.

However, after slaying the Liejia Army Ant Emperor and absorbing part of his power, his strength had already recovered by more than half.

Even if he had not completely refined it, he was not someone the previous Tian Han could deal with.

But now, he clearly felt Tian Han’s change, not only in strength but also a subtle change in his Divine Soul aura.

“I am the Frost Monarch!”

Tian Han looked at Luo Xiu with gloomy eyes, not knowing what he was thinking, and after a long time, he withdrew his imposing aura.

“I didn’t expect him to succeed, but he will also pay the price for what he did back then!”

With that, Tian Han turned and left, but Luo Xiu, uncharacteristically, did not stop him.

Because the previous battle made him realize that he couldn’t keep the opponent unless he was willing to fight to the death and keep pursuing him.

But he knew that his master might need his help in the near future, so he not only had to improve his strength but also had to constantly await his master’s command!

Tian Han left, taking some of his Ice Clan experts with him.

“Your Majesty!”

At this moment, Sword Demon and other Demonic Beast experts quickly approached.

They were greatly shocked when they saw Luo Xiu’s appearance; it was the first time they had seen their King suffer such severe injuries!

“Your Majesty, are you alright?”

As Sword Demon spoke, he took out several faintly glowing beads from his embrace.

These beads were crystal clear, as if they contained endless vitality.

This was part of the Liejia Army Ant’s life essence!

However, Luo Xiu shook his head, refusing Sword Demon’s kind offer.

“You all absorb and refine them yourselves; Yan Mo has already reached the Half-Step Emperor Realm, so don’t fall behind.”

He knew in his heart that with his current strength, the life essence below the Emperor Realm, others would no longer have much effect on him.

However, Luo Xiu’s gaze fell upon the beads in Sword Demon’s hand.

He noticed that the energy within these beads was extremely rich; if Sword Demon and the other two absorbed and refined them, it would definitely help them Breakthrough to the Half-Step Emperor Realm!

After some thought, Luo Xiu decided to add more fuel to the fire.

He quickly condensed a rich surge of energy, then unhesitatingly injected it into Sword Demon’s body.

“This is part of the Liejia Army Ant Emperor’s energy; try to charge towards the Emperor Realm!”

In fact, most of the Liejia Army Ant Emperor’s energy had already been stored in Luo Xiu’s body.

He only needed to slowly refine it later to successfully Breakthrough his current strength.

And the portion of energy he was giving out now, while somewhat useful to him, could not bring about a qualitative leap.

However, if it could help him gain another Emperor Realm Expert under his command, it would undoubtedly save Luo Xiu a lot of trouble.

After all, the strength of an Emperor Realm Expert was not something ordinary people could compare to.

“Yes!”

Sword Demon and the others said no more; they knew their King had his own judgment!

“What is the battle outcome?”

Luo Xiu recovered his own state while refining the Liejia Army Ant Emperor’s power within his body, and at the same time, he asked Sword Demon about the battle’s outcome.

“Reporting to Your Majesty, our army suffered over three hundred thousand Demonic Beast casualties in this battle, but we also assimilated over one hundred thousand powerful Liejia Army Ants.

Forty-seven King Realm Experts sacrificed, but we gained over one hundred and twenty King Realm Experts.

Among them, one hundred and thirty-three were King Realm Early Stage, fifty-six were King Realm Middle Stage, and eighteen were King Realm Late Stage!”

Beyond that were the Four Demon Generals and Luo Xiu himself, which Luo Xiu nodded in satisfaction.

He knew that most of his current Demonic Beast subordinates had not yet consumed the battle spoils; if given more time, once they all refined them.

At that time, their strength would undergo a qualitative improvement, of which he had no doubt.

“Prepare on the spot; ten days later, Tian Mo will lead the team to find the exact location of the Ice Alliance!”

Although the current Tian Han had, for some unknown reason, changed like a different person, and even his strength had undergone earth-shattering changes.

But Luo Xiu was not afraid; even if he couldn’t kill Tian Han, he could kill the other foreign races of the Ice Alliance.

Most importantly, he had to collect the corpses of some powerful foreign races to complete his master’s command!

“Yes!”

Tian Mo immediately accepted the order, and then the entire Demonic horde entered a strange calm.

Luo Xiu sat cross-legged, beginning to refine the energy within his body and improve his strength!

Sword Demon distributed the beads and ordered his Sword Demon Squad to guard around Luo Xiu.

After everything was arranged, he himself entered a state of Cultivation.

He must not fail the King’s expectations, so he must Breakthrough!

A hundred thousand miles away, a group of people recorded the previous battle through special items.

“Captain, has Luo Xiu’s strength already reached this level?”

Someone thought of the strength Luo Xiu had displayed earlier and couldn’t help but swallow, they didn’t even dare to look too much in his direction.

Fearing that if they were detected, they might not even have a chance to resist.

Killing an Insect Emperor, his Demonic Beast Army annihilated countless insect swarms.

One must know that his Great Xia was currently being invaded by an Insect Emperor; that was a disaster of nation-destroying magnitude.

“Captain, if this Luo Xiu attacks our Great Xia…”

“Enough!”

The leading Great Xia King Realm Expert reprimanded, “Our Great Xia has many foundations; among those Demonic Beasts, apart from Luo Xiu, the others are simply vulnerable (not worth a single blow).

Moreover, our Great Xia’s former Four Kings are all about to Breakthrough to the Emperor Realm; once they Breakthrough, our Great Xia will be as solid as a fortress.

Even Luo Xiu would not dare to offend our Great Xia!”

The others stopped speaking upon hearing this, but they were still apprehensive.

The Great Xia King Realm Expert sighed upon seeing this, then continued.

“You don’t need to be nervous; with the trump card given by the Dragon King, and the fact that we are so far away.

Even if we are discovered, we can safely withdraw, and our Great Xia has accumulated for hundreds of years; its foundation is not something you can imagine.”

After speaking, he patted the shoulder of the person from earlier, “First, send back the impression of the battle just now; we just need to complete our mission.

Our Great Xia will exist forever!”

“Yes!”
