After Liu Changxu led the Azure Cloud Sect cultivators in pacifying Rosy Cloud Mountain and its surrounding lands, he had barely returned to the mountain to rest when shocking, terrible news arrived from Chen Hu!
The Azure Cloud Sect Cultivator Legion led by Chen Hu had suffered an unprecedented, crushing defeat while attacking Greenwood Ridge!
Among the casualties was Li Fengzhu, a Spirit Transformation early-stage powerhouse who had been defeated and killed. Even his Primordial Spirit had failed to escape.
With even a Spirit Transformation powerhouse slain, the losses among the Nascent Soul and Golden Core cultivators were greater still. More than seventy Nascent Soul cultivators and two hundred Golden Core cultivators had fallen in battle-devastating losses!
According to Chen Hu's message, the main reason for their crushing defeat was that Greenwood Ridge had received powerful new reinforcements!
There were now eight Giant Race Spirit Transformation cultivators defending Greenwood Ridge: two Spirit Transformation Late Stage cultivators, two at the middle stage, and four at the early stage.
In terms of Spirit Transformation fighting strength, the Giant Race cultivators at Greenwood Ridge surpassed the Azure Cloud Sect in both numbers and quality.
It was precisely this failure of intelligence that had left Chen Hu and the others ignorant of the enemy's true strength and made them suffer so badly.
Of course, Chen Hu could not be blamed. The Giant Race cultivators guarding Greenwood Ridge were exceedingly cunning. Even when Chen Hu slaughtered their people outside the ridge, they refused to come out and fight, intent on holding their ground.
Seeing the Giant Race cultivators holed up inside Greenwood Ridge, Chen Hu could only change his strategy. He ordered the Azure Cloud Sect Cultivator Legion to continue wiping out the surrounding Giant Race castles while he led five fellow Spirit Transformation cultivators
