I Have A Qi Fortune Altar

Chapter 1832: Chapter 869: Demon Slaying! Fen Tian!

The newly established Great Yan Dynasty demonstrated unparalleled action; ever since Chen Yuan called out the slogan to march south against demons in the Golden Throne Hall, the entire court swiftly moved into action.

Endless resources began to gradually flow towards Zhen Nan Pass.

The plan to annihilate the demon tribe was not merely about killing the Demon Emperor and several Demon Gods, but also about incorporating the Southern Border into the territory.

Enslaving the demon tribe, thereby making them submit under the human race.

Therefore, vast resources are extremely necessary.

However, as for troops, they are not yet needed because the initial goal is to annihilate the demon tribe. Even while Chen Yuan was in seclusion in Japan, Zhen Nan Pass already gathered no less than a million troops.

This battle is the first since the founding of the Great Yan Dynasty, and naturally cannot end hastily. Chen Yuan, with imperial authority, issued an imperial decree, summoning Left National Master Moluo and Grandmaster Old Heavenly Master to accompany.

Along with Jiang He, Chu Changfeng, and other pillars gathered, regardless of the level, they far exceeded the strength possessed by the demon tribe.

And when he himself marched south to fight the demons, the news, spreading across the land, stirred great upheaval. Although many had been anticipating this day and were even preparing for it.

Missing this battle, in foreseeable times, the world would fall into peace; in other words, this battle is the last chance to earn military merit as there would be no further opportunity thereafter.

But no one expected Great Yan to act so decisively, declaring demon warfare mere days after its founding, evidently prepared long before.

Many express regret because under such circumstances, it is clear they won’t get any more opportunities.

Disregarding the various rumors outside, Chen Yuan has already prepared long ago and is eager to completely pacify the Southern Border. Afterward, there would be a long period of recuperation and restoration.

Until... the Immortal Domain arrives!

...

Atop the Zhen Nan Pass city wall, Prince Zhen Nan Chu Changfeng, donned in gold-plated armor, conversed with Moluo and others.

"Senior, when will His Majesty arrive?"

Chu Changfeng asked casually.

Since the Great Yan Dynasty’s proclamation across the land, a full seven days have passed, with large quantities of resources supplied to Zhen Nan Pass, while Moluo, Old Heavenly Master, Ling Xu, Tianxu, Jiang He, and Ancestor Su Ming have all arrived at Zhen Nan Pass.

Yet, the most crucial figure, the Great Yan Holy Martial Emperor, has yet to make a move, triggering some speculation on his part.

"His Majesty will come, don’t worry," Moluo smiled lightly. Chen Yuan’s current strength far exceeded his, making it impossible for him to track Chen Yuan’s whereabouts.

However, he feels he should be coming soon.

After all, before they set out, Chen Yuan had told them that once everyone gathered, he would come.

"Prince Zhen Nan need not be anxious." Jiang He smiled lightly. Now that Great Yan is established, although they may be informal in private, officially they mostly refer to each other’s titles.

And their address for Chen Yuan naturally transformed into ’His Majesty.’

"Haha, I am not impatient, just worried the demons might retreat faster upon getting the news, causing considerable trouble later."

Since taking charge of Zhen Nan Pass, he has been closely monitoring the movements of the demon tribe, constantly thinking of a counterattack to wash away past shame.

Of course, he does not come without ulterior motives.

The other kings’ territories are now largely devoid of external enemies, only his Zhen Nan Pass still faces demon presence, and he intends to accumulate merit for the future.

After all, his current foundation is still too slight. Wei Wuque inherits the legacy of former King Liang Wei Jinfeng, and the King of West has the merit of the northern grassland campaign and familial ties with Chen Yuan.

East Sea King is not only a Sixth Realm Immortal but also has past meritorious deeds resisting the Northern Barbarians. Yet he, aside from the past human-demon war, has mostly been stationed here.

He wishes to gain some merit as his basis.

"This time, His Majesty leads the expedition against demons, causing havoc in the Central Plains for thousands of years; likely, they will never raise their heads again." Demon Dao Holy Ancestor Su Ming with hands behind his back.

He gazes towards the direction of the Southern Border, uttering a sigh.

From Chen Yuan’s actions concerning the grassland, Western Regions, and Japan, one can surmise that this battle aims to completely crush the backbone of the demon tribe, never to rise again.

Even more ruthless than the Grand Ancestor Chu of the past.

"For my Central Plains human race, this is a good thing." Tianxu Taoist chuckles lightly, after Chen Yuan fulfilled his promise by designating Taixu Immortal Palace as the National Religion.

He himself was free from past obsessions, nearly reaching the threshold to comprehend rules.

This demon campaign too was his voluntary application, hoping to break through this last barrier in the final great war, stepping into the Half-Immortal Realm.

"Haha... indeed."

Zhao Danqing also nodded.

Only Savior Bodhisattva showed some worry. When the news of Chen Yuan’s demon campaign reached the Western Regions, he quickly arrived at Zhen Nan Pass, not seeking merit.

But hoping Chen Yuan would not be overly ruthless, to leave the demon tribe a way out.

After all, despite going forth to become a Bodhisattva of Spirit Mountain, he too is born from the demon tribe, hoping to leave some inheritance for the demon tribe, not to sever it completely.

"This..."

Ling Xu Taoist was about to speak when suddenly, everyone present, including him, felt an overwhelming aura beginning to envelop them.
