RNP 1051. The Great Battle Ends
1051. The Great Battle Ends
Once the aura of Lingyuan's self-destruction had completely subsided, the Spirit Realm fell into a strange calm after a long period of chaos. The earth-shattering sounds had completely disappeared, and this atmosphere marked the true end of the battle.
The impact of Ling Yuan's self-destruction was enormous; in terms of damage alone, it could be said to be no less devastating than the attack that shattered the remnant soul of the Spirit Emperor.
First, there were direct casualties. Due to the suddenness of Ling Yuan's self-destruction, even with Yan Jin's assistance, not all the Dou Sheng experts in the alliance could escape unscathed. Elder He Ning of the Pill Tower perished directly in this attack.
Xiao Yan went to see him personally. He Ning's injuries were too severe, to the point where medicine could not cure him. In particular, his soul had been completely destroyed, leaving him unable to leave any last words. The only recourse was for the Pill Tower Ancestor to silently collect his body and bury him after leaving the Spirit Realm.
During this process, even someone as indifferent as the Old Ancestor Danta couldn't help but reveal a faint sense of grief.
He Ning was also one of the pillars of the Pill Tower's Dou Sheng faction. In the past few years, he successfully broke through the Dou Sheng bottleneck and advanced to a one-star Dou Sheng. He originally thought he was just participating in a very important alliance meeting, but as events unfolded, he ended up directly on the Spirit Clan's battlefield.
This was his first official battle after advancing to the Dou Sheng level, but unexpectedly, it was the beginning that ended, and he perished completely.
Besides Elder He Ning, who died directly, Yao Lao was also seriously injured in the battle against the Soul Brilliance, and his condition was deteriorating rapidly. Xiao Yan was worried about his teacher and had to stay by his side to control Yao Lao's injuries.
Fire Cloud Ancestor, Green Fairy, Fire Child, Pill Tower Ancestor, and Zi Yan all suffered serious injuries. Although they were not immediately life-threatening, they certainly needed to rest and recuperate.
After the situation stabilized, Qinglin released Yao Su and Yao Ming. Yao Ming, who was severely injured, immediately began the healing process. Yao Su, however, was weaker and perished.
As guards, the two of them took the brunt of the energy from the explosion of the Spirit Abyss. Apart from Yan Jin and Mu Wei, all the other participants suffered injuries of varying degrees.
As the leader of the alliance, Xiao Yan was well aware that although they had won this surprise attack, it was a Pyrrhic victory.
One profound truth is: never underestimate any family descended from a Dou Di on the continent, not even the Spirit Clan, which is currently ranked at the bottom.
Before the battle began, they seemed to have the upper hand in everything and possess an absolute advantage. However, once the battle actually started, the Spirit Clan still demonstrated extremely strong strength, such as having more Battle Saint level experts than expected, and their solidified Battle Qi support that had been integrated with the clan's protective formation.
These were the last hidden resources of the Spirit Race, which helped them unleash wave after wave of power in desperate situations.
It is worth mentioning that, despite the devastating impact and explosion just now, some of the Spirit Race's Battle Saints still managed to survive.
That was the current Grand Elder of the Spirit Clan, the four-star Dou Sheng Ling Cang. Although he, like the others, was also seriously injured, he withstood the impact of the self-destruction and did not perish directly.
However, having experienced everything, Ling Cang seemed to have lost all hope. He offered no further resistance and allowed Yan Jin to take control of him.
In fact, Ling Cang's survival was undoubtedly good news for the alliance. As long as he was alive, the people of the Ling Clan would still have some hope. With their ancestor destroyed and their clan leader and deputy clan leader all gone, now their only hope lay with Elder Ling Cang.
Initially, the alliance members anticipated that the ordinary members of the Spirit Clan might cause another disturbance. However, since their strength was too weak to cause any uncontrollable disturbances under the noses of so many Battle Saints, they hadn't specifically devised a countermeasure.
Now that Ling Cang is here, their worries have completely disappeared.
The people of the Spirit Clan were filled with complex emotions and trepidation. They had witnessed everything; the Spirit Clan had been utterly defeated!
Almost all the powerful members of their clan perished in that battle. If Yan Jin hadn't intervened, a large portion of the Spirit Clan's descendants would have died in that massive explosion.
Their fate was no longer in their own hands; they were left to the mercy of these people before them. In their hearts, these Alliance members were no different from true demons.
……
Three days after the surprise attack, the alliance members completely controlled the spirit world.
This speed was remarkable, partly thanks to Mu Wei, a top-tier array master. After successfully conquering the Spirit Realm, he did nothing but immediately and tirelessly sifted through all the information he could find about the Spirit Clan's grand arrays. Although not comprehensive, it certainly solved the immediate crisis.
In just three days, he successfully eliminated the vast majority of potential threats, bringing the Spirit Clan's protective formation under the control of the Alliance.
Of course, for safety reasons, the Mountain and River Trapping Dragon Formation is still in operation, and everyone in the spirit world is still unable to make any contact with the outside world.
Yan Jin also contributed a great deal of valuable experience. Although the Yan Realm had been completely destroyed in the previous war, as the clan leader, he naturally knew many secrets that ordinary people could not access. The spaces of the major Dou Di descendant families differed in many ways, but in essence, they were still the same. These spaces were all created by the original Dou Di powerhouses, with vast territories capable of accommodating tens of millions of people.
With the cooperation of Muwei and Yanjin, the first phase of control over the spirit world was completed.
Immediately afterwards, the second group of key figures in the alliance, led by Little Fairy Doctor and Xuan Yi, arrived in the Spirit Realm and successfully took over most of the affairs there.
The conquest of the Spirit Realm was just the beginning. To gain a foothold and establish the Spirit Realm as their main base, they still had a great deal to deal with.
Putting aside everything else, the wounded in this battle urgently need targeted and specialized treatment.
Fortunately, the Pill Tower, the number one alchemist force on the continent, has now officially joined the alliance. They can provide a sufficient number of alchemy masters. Otherwise, Xiao Yan alone would really not be able to handle such a large demand.
Compared to controlling the spirit world, Xiao Yan, as an alchemist, was more concerned about the wounded in this great battle.
In his mind, the injuries these people suffered were caused by this surprise attack, and the reason this battle happened was entirely because he had given his approval to organize it.
Not to mention, among those injured were their own closest relatives, their teachers and their wives.
The day after the great battle, Xiao Yan barely rested before personally checking on everyone's injuries. He then immediately set out his medicine cauldron, ready to begin refining pills.
However, after his actions became known to everyone, they were explicitly stopped. After all, Xiao Yan had exerted a great deal of effort in that battle, and he himself had also suffered considerable exhaustion and injuries. He needed to ensure his own condition first.
