It was the sixth year after the Seventh Great Wall had been breached.
Cheng Yu was studying the latest reports on the war in the Northern Continent.
Since Beijing City's Outer City Wall had fallen, both the eastern and western sections of the Northern Continent's first defensive line had collapsed, leaving only Beijing City standing.
Beijing City was now like a lone island in the sea, completely cut off from its surroundings. Fortunately, this was a world of staggering combat power. Even an isolated city could receive an endless stream of supplies from elsewhere in the Northern Continent and the other continents, as long as its Teleportation Arrays remained operational. There was little to worry about on that front.
Moreover, thanks to Beijing City's stubborn resistance, the Northern Continent's second defensive line had largely stabilized. There probably would not be any major surprises there.
There was good news, too. In the Northern Sea, where the Northern Continent lay, the Human Celestial Boat Fleet, the Heavenly Dynasty Navy, the Water Race of the Demon Race, and several water-adept peoples of the Myriad Races had joined forces and utterly routed the Demons' invasion at sea.
Though the blood of the Myriad Races had nearly dyed the Northern Sea red, it had all been worth it.
The Demon Emperors still showed no sign of moving. Cheng Yu could not fathom what those three old schemers were planning, but they were unlikely to enter the Mythic Great World rashly.
The formation covering the entire Northern Continent was operating normally. This War Against the Heavenly Demons had not engulfed even a tenth of the Northern Continent, let alone all of it.
Though the price had been countless lives from the Eternal True World, there was nothing to be done about it.
As for Beijing City...
