The Mechanical Empire's Western Front Fortress.
On the ground behind the fortress, vast piles of mutant beast corpses lay stacked while countless engineering mechs busily butchered them and sealed away the materials.
Inside the fortress conference hall, Silad presided over a meeting attended by Purple Wing, several other War Emperors, and several War Kings.
Silad excitedly opened the information display and looked at Purple Wing and the others.
"Everyone, the battlefield cleanup is complete. Our haul this time was tremendous: eleven Void Glimpse Realm Abyss Beasts, over two hundred and seventy Heaven-tier abyss beasts, seventy thousand barrels of concentrated blood essence, and more materials than we can count!"
His voice trembled slightly, his face radiant with excitement. With a sweep of his hand, he projected the information onto the conference table before them, letting everyone see the figures clearly.
Everyone's breath caught at his words. Their eyes settled on the projection, and as they studied the figures, the excitement already on their faces burned even brighter.
"So much! We've struck it rich! Eleven Void Abyss Beasts—we'd only hunted down three before this!"
Golden Gleam War Emperor's face flushed as he looked at the figures.
"This time, we can finally stop holding back in our cultivation. We have enough blood energy to sustain us!" Wind Forest War Emperor's eyes gleamed as well.
They had benefited from cultivating the Blood Refinement Art, so they were exceptionally excited. Ample blood energy was the wellspring that fueled their advancement.
The other War Emperors also broke into smiles. Though the battle had been grueling, its rewards were abundant, far beyond anything they had imagined.
Silad was excited too. He could be considered the supreme commander of this battle. Though Purple Wing had led at the front, he had overseen the whole operation. This great victory
