Seeing that Qin Wentian was unwilling to work under his army, Chen Yu didn’t press the matter, and Lin Yuxuan and Lin Tianfeng were indifferent.
"Benefactor, when do you plan to head to the battlefield? I happen to be in the army you are commanding."
The gray-robed elder came over, a smile on his face mixed with reverence.
If before, the gray-robed elder was merely grateful to Chen Yu, now, he seemed to have intentions of networking.
Chen Yu’s talent surpasses Chou Lengdao, and his future accomplishments are boundless.
"Let’s wait for a while; I need to acquire some cultivation resources."
The materials for concocting the Golden Spirit Liquid are only left with one portion, and also the resources related to practicing the "Nine Revolutions Bright Star Technique" have been consumed by sixty to seventy percent.
As a Saint General, he could issue requests within the alliance. If resources Chen Yu needed appeared, he could obtain them with priority and even at a discount.
He just needed to wait on the battlefield, and someone would deliver the resources to him.
"Brother Chen, please take care of the disciples from our Wind Spirit Sect. If there’s any need, just let me know."
The Wind Spirit Sect Master laughed heartily.
The gathering ended, but there was always a group of people surrounding Chen Yu, either to make connections or recruit him.
Five days later, Chen Yu, Lin Yuxuan, and others headed to a major battlefield in the west of the Human Race.
Meanwhile, in a dim secret chamber within the alliance.
"The target has appeared, and has become one of the five Saint Generals!"
"A Saint General? That will be somewhat tricky to deal with!"
Several figures moved in the darkness.
"With ’Blood Peak King’ here, what’s there to fear? Just make a move!"
A seemingly ordinary young man, his eyes flickering with a bloody light: "We’ve tracked him from the main world to here—it has been a year. Moreover, if we resolve the target here, the Heavenly Martial Sect will find it hard to trace to us."
"It’s not that simple. As a Saint General, he guards the camp, commanding an army of a hundred thousand, filled with experts, and even the military has mechanical arrays. We lack expertise in this area, making it difficult to handle."
"Moreover, according to the elder, once we approach the target, the other side will sense it, and surely he will set traps in advance, waiting for us to walk into the net!"
An elderly man with a gaunt face spoke slowly.
Once they neared the target, they would be detected by the other side. While unbelievable, they couldn’t ignore the solemn warnings from the clan’s high level.
"Even if I make a move myself, there is only a fifty percent certainty of capturing him from the hundred thousand troops, but ultimately there are risks."
A figure emerged from the darkness, entirely consumed within a black robe, only a pair of bloodthirsty eyes sparkled like they came from hell, sending chills down the spine.
"What shall we do? According to plan, once he completes the task and returns to the Heavenly Martial Sect, it will be harder to act against him."
"Indeed, it’s an opportunity not to be missed!"
The elderly man suddenly stood up: "I have an idea; we can look for help."
"You must be joking. Who here would help us to deal with a Saint General?"
The ordinary-looking man chuckled.
The elderly man lightly spoke the two words, instantly quieting the secret chamber.
In the western camp, the army already knew that a Saint General would come to guard this place and lead everything.
Yet, most were unaware of the Saint General’s identity.
"In my view, Situ Lin Yu must be expected to become a Saint General, although the odds of him guarding this place are only one in five."
"Aside from Situ Lin Yu, Lian Guifeng and Chou Lengdao from the Dragon Slayer Hall are popular candidates, but they fall short compared to Situ Lin Yu, after all, he is the Emperor reincarnated and training anew. If he comes to guard this place, it would be best."
The army’s two deputy generals were from the Dragon Slayer Hall.
One deputy general had a cold countenance, emanating a heavy scent of blood and evil qi.
The other deputy was a young woman, appearing elegant and beautiful.
"Hehe, there’s no need to think; the person coming to guard the place must be Lian Guifeng or Chou Lengdao."
The beautiful woman laughed lightly.
"Then, the entire western camp will be under the control of the Dragon Slayer Hall."
The cold middle-aged man’s eyes flickered with bloody light.
Controlling the entire western camp would bring immense benefits to the Dragon Slayer Hall.
"Salute the Holy General!’
Suddenly, shouts emanated from outside.
Both deputy generals immediately charged out of the camp to greet the powerhouses from the Dragon Slayer Hall.
Yet, their bodies froze in mid-air.
"Who is this person...?"
Not only did the two deputy generals doubt, but over ninety percent of the army was clueless about Chen Yu, even suspecting whether he was an imposter.
"Who are you to impersonate a Saint General; this is a capital offense!"
The cold middle-aged man shouted immediately.
In his view, the Saint General who came here must be someone from the Dragon Slayer Hall.
Others knew nothing about Chen Yu, and since the cold middle-aged deputy general said so, they also began to doubt.
Chen Yu’s expression was icy, his dark eyes bursting with a mighty and intimidating aura.
The cold middle-aged man’s cultivation was at the peak of Star Condensing Middle Stage, yet he suddenly felt that Chen Yu before him was like ten enormous mountains, emitting an indescribable oppressive force.
"His cultivation is less than mine, how could he exert such pressure!"
The cold middle-aged man found it hard to believe.
"Slandering the Holy General, you deserve a slap."
Chen Yu’s icy voice echoed.
Upon hearing those words, the cold middle-aged man’s face changed drastically, realizing that Chen Yu actually intended to slap him, a move to establish dominance and intimidate others.
If the opponent were Situ Lin Yu from the Heavenly Ghost Sect, he would accept it, but who is Chen Yu? He had never heard of him, nor had he ever met him; why would he obediently stand here let Chen Yu slap him?
Suddenly, Chen Yu swung a slap, the light from his palm sweeping through the void, descending in an instant.
The cold middle-aged man immediately retreated; at worst, he would lose his position as Deputy General, but he could not let Chen Yu slap him in public.
But he suddenly realized, the space around him seemed to solidify, everything appeared to be at a standstill, and all his actions encountered immense resistance, as if he was trapped in a world of slow motion.
"Triple Space Profound Meaning!"
The cold middle-aged man was shocked to the core, frantically mobilizing his energy to resist, but it was already too late.
Chen Yu’s slap landed on his face.
The cold middle-aged man’s body flew a hundred feet away, smashing into the ground, creating a large pit.
Chen Yu’s slap was indeed heavy.
After climbing up, the cold middle-aged man’s teeth were all knocked out, his jaw dislocated, and he couldn’t even speak clearly.
This scene caused a tense silence among the three armies.
The Deputy General was sent flying by a single slap with no ability to resist; it seems this young Holy General truly secured his position through real strength.
"Even Chou Lengdao from the Dragon Slayer Hall was stepped on by me; what are you? How dare you act disrespectfully? If there’s a next time, don’t blame me for not being polite."
Chen Yu coldly shouted, his gaze sweeping around, everyone lowered their heads, not daring to meet his eyes.
"What? Chou Lengdao was defeated by this person!"
The cold middle-aged man found it unbelievable.
The beautiful woman beside him was also immensely surprised.
The entire camp was agitated; they had all heard about Chou Lengdao’s reputation, and many had even seen him in person; he was like a peerless mad blade, cutting-edge and intimidating.
Yet Chou Lengdao was actually defeated by Chen Yu.
"Welcome, Holy General!"
Someone suddenly shouted, kneeling down.
Gradually, more and more people followed suit, until the entire army welcomed Chen Yu, including the two Deputy Generals who also lowered their heads.
"You two, come inside and give me an overview of the military situation."
Chen Yu pointed at the two Deputy Generals.
In fact, before he came, he planned to give the two Deputy Generals a demonstration, to intimidate the three armies.
This was something Situ Lin Yu asked Chen Yu to do, to intimidate the two Deputy Generals, and if possible, replace these two Dragon Slayer Hall people with Heavenly Ghost Sect members.
Situ Lin Yu had helped Chen Yu before, so he agreed to this small favor.
On the battlefield, there wasn’t combat every day; most of the time, there were only minor skirmishes that naturally didn’t require Chen Yu’s intervention.
In his daily life, he cultivated in his own residence. Follow current novels on novel{f}ire.net
Regarding resources, Chen Yu wasn’t particularly frugal, as strength was the most fundamental thing.
The purpose of plundering resources is to enhance one’s cultivation strength.
Chen Yu went into seclusion for a month without any disturbances.
And his White Tiger Sky Splitting Claw had reached the peak of Minor Achievement, not far from the realm of Great Success.
"Once the second layer steps into the Great Success realm, its power will greatly enhance, allowing the execution of corresponding combat techniques."
Chen Yu was looking forward to this.
As for the progress in cultivation, it was slightly slower.
Even when Chen Yu exchanged for a Six Forms Gathering Essence Array at the Heavenly Martial Sect, the environment of the Qianyuan Realm was far inferior to the main world, and the Heavenly Martial Sect was the Holy Land for cultivation for the Human Race in the main world.
Chen Yu could only spend more time on cultivation.
Also, the two Deputy Generals had learned of the events during the Holy General election, speculating that Chen Yu might remove them from their positions, so they were even more diligent, making sure Chen Yu couldn’t find any fault in their work.
Because of this, Chen Yu had lots of spare time.
On the western battlefield, there were three major battles.
Chen Yu participated in two, killing two Dragon Generals and several Mid-stage Condensed Star opponents, shaking both enemy and ally forces.
Inside the main hall, Chen Yu temporarily stopped cultivating.
"A year has passed, and the White Tiger Sky Splitting Claw has yet to break through."
Chen Yu sighed lowly.
In reality, the second layer of the Four Symbols Divine Body had already reached a high level.
But Chen Yu had an intrinsic talent for Body Refinement, with much room for improvement, only that the materials for cultivating the White Tiger Sky Splitting Claw had long been exhausted.
"Looks like it’s time to use you!"
Chen Yu took a deep breath, taking out a jade bottle from the Light Silver Crystal Space.
Inside was a drop of golden blood, clear like amber, emanating an extremely radiant golden glow.
Even stored in a special container, Chen Yu could sense the robust bloodline aura within.
"The essence blood of the White Tiger Sacred Clan, though it’s only a drop, it might very well come from an Emperor-level Holy Beast!"
The essence blood of a metal element Holy Beast Bloodline is a necessary item for cultivating the White Tiger Sky Splitting Claw, greatly influencing the cultivation of this layer.
Chen Yu shouted lowly, the jade bottle opened, and the drop of golden blood flew out, landing between his palms.
Within the essence blood, the robust and ancient bloodline aura formed layers of golden waves, sweeping in all directions.
Fortunately, Chen Yu activated a barrier and used a space barrier to isolate it, otherwise someone might sense this drop of essence blood.
Chen Yu operated the related methods within the White Tiger Sky Splitting Claw, extracting the power from this drop of essence blood, integrating it into the White Tiger Sacred Claw.
