Chapter 2638: 14: Shocking News of Thunder in the Clear Sky

The frost wind grows colder. This extreme cold wind seems to chill one’s heart.

But standing outside Frost Wind Valley, gazing at this scene, the human warriors’ blood started to boil.

Someone has already raised the Jingwei Flag of Qi Country and flown to Yanlao City to deliver the good news.

To have slain two Demon Kings in battle is a great achievement anywhere. Especially Shi Shanwen, with his extraordinary status and formidable talent, whose worth is incomparable to regular Demon Kings. Not to mention the direct change in the battleground’s dynamics at Frost Wind Valley, turning defeat into victory!

The remaining people stood outside the valley, cheering.

Though exhausted, though their wounds hurt unbearably, though the battle had cost heavy casualties, they won!

No matter their allegiance to Qi Country, Jinguo, or any other force. At this moment, they cheered for the heroes of the Human Race, for the victory of the Human Race, for themselves...

Though separated by the frost wind, it all seems distant.

Jiang Wang silently operated the Xuan Tian Liu Li Technique, precisely distributing power, fighting against the extreme cold wind. His left hand flipped out the Bi Fang Seal, creating a domain of fire outside.

The fire domain was compressed extremely thin, almost sticking to his body. This way, it could slightly block the coldness that permeated the bones and blood.

From a distance, it looked like he was wearing a red cloak.

He didn’t hesitate, nor did he have time to hesitate. Holding a sword in one hand and lifting the corpse of the Demon clan’s Heavenly Sea King with the other, he turned and flew back.

This corpse was both a battle achievement and a trophy, it must be kept from being spoiled by the extreme cold wind.

Once this frost wind recedes, everything left in the valley will be claimed by the human side—this is the most straightforward significance of this victory.

In the cold wind, he passed by the tall and robust Stone Rhinoceros Demon King.

Eyes looking directly into eyes.

Xi Yanbing moved aside from a distance, almost hugging the mountain wall’s side.

Jiang Wang did not pursue.

The life-and-death struggle with Shi Shanwen was complex to describe, but it was completed in an extremely short time.

Even in that short time, the operation of Path Origin began to stagnate. His Spirit faintly stiffened, forcing him to continue defending with the Facing Heaven’s Gate.

Fighting any further would truly be courting death.

The extreme cold wind struck the fire domain cloak, making crackling sounds.

Jiang Wang vaguely knew that people outside the valley were shouting something, but he couldn’t hear anything.

His ears were bleeding, and his hearing had already failed—

If Shi Shanwen had held on for just a little longer, this would have been one of the breakthrough points the Heavenly Sea King could exploit.

But in matters of life and death, there are no ’ifs’, nor is there going back.

Ji Zhaonan, who had recovered, picked up the Shao Hua Spear again and flew into Frost Wind Valley: "Jiang Wuan, I’m here to get you!"

Due to most of his strength being used to fight against the extreme cold wind, Jiang Wang couldn’t catch the sound, couldn’t understand what Ji Zhaonan was saying.

But he understood, Ji Zhaonan was there to get him.

This choice, one might say, was too impulsive, but in reality, not being impulsive was not an option.

Shi Shanwen and Xi Yanbing had constructed an absolute kill situation within a very short time. If he dared not risk his life, there would be no chance of survival.

Sometimes, when the strong contend, what they contend for is momentum.

A thought away, life and death separated.

The death of Ying Kexun was a precedent. Shi Shanwen’s defeat could also serve as proof.

Jiang Wang walked through fire in the extreme cold wind, carrying the Heavenly Sea King, feeling very calm.

Before coming to Monster Realm, he already knew what a dangerous place it was. The battle at Frost Wind Valley came suddenly and thrillingly, but it was all about facing it.

To truly reach the pinnacle, the strong always prove themselves time and again before the Life and Death Line.

He was just walking on this path.

Just moving forward like that.

"Jiang Wuan... Jiang Wuan!" A young cultivator with a broken armor hung on his body, covered in scars, standing not far from the extreme cold wind, shouted at the slowly flying Jiang Wang, with effort.

The young face was full of emotion.

He shouted Jiang Wang’s name, also stirring others to shout together.

After a great battle, only a dozen or so human warriors remained, each shouting hoarsely.

Escaping from death, finding victory in defeat. Undoubtedly ignited their emotions.

Ji Zhaonan leapt up, using Spear Force to relentlessly strike the extreme cold wind above Jiang Wang from afar, to lessen his burden.

Seeing Jiang Wang’s frost-covered face and his steady sword grip, Chunyu Gui shook his head, inserting the Jingwei Purple Flag diagonally into the mountain wall, saying to Wang Kun: "You all are very hard to catch up to him."

Wang Kun wanted to retort, then how long can you maintain your lead?

But at that moment, he realized, there was no "you all" anymore.

Zhao Xuenyang was no longer there, and among Jing Country’s God Arrives geniuses, only Chunyu Gui remained who could claim to be one step ahead of Jiang Wang.

Chen Suan, freshly made God Arrives, had already lost once at Star Moon Plain, and avoided Jiang Wang’s edge on the grassland, no longer being compared with Jiang Wang.

Even Lou Junlan, who wasn’t as good as Chen Suan, didn’t need mentioning.

As for young cultivators like him and Wu Jiangchen still honing the Outer Building... said to be national geniuses, they could only fall under Chunyu Gui’s general "you all" category. Probably only Pei Hongjiu still harbors some ambition to catch up with Jiang Wang.

"General Chunyu, do you think now..."

Wang Kun initially wanted to say, looking at Jiang Wang now, is it like when you looked at Taixu Real Person back then?

He didn’t feel Jiang Wang could compare with Li Yi, but still prepared to ask.

But the words ultimately weren’t finished.

Because he saw—
