The Canglang Plain was a scene of devastation after the battle. For forty miles north of the Sky Wolf Army's main camp, Giant Spirit corpses covered the ground as far as the eye could see.
Huang Heixuan had made his decision to withdraw in good time. The Giant Spirits had suffered nearly a million casualties in this battle.
Yet the vast majority of the rest had successfully withdrawn, fleeing into the great mountains north of the Canglang Plain.
Their high-ranked Giant Spirits had suffered even heavier losses.
More than two hundred Third-Rank Giant Spirits had died in this battle alone, along with over twenty Second-Rank ones. Overall, however, they had still preserved nearly sixty percent of their strength.
This was mainly because the Human Race had too few troops.
Pursuing and slaughtering the enemy with fewer than 370,000 soldiers, they had to proceed with extreme caution, fearing that their opponents might wheel around and strike back. Thus, their overall kill count was limited, and their pursuit focused on scattering the enemy.
After the Giant Spirit Army collapsed, Chu Xisheng no longer took part in the fighting.
With the Giant Spirits' morale shattered, the hostility and killing intent directed at him had also disintegrated, drastically reducing his combat strength.
Chu Xisheng had even needed to hide in the Sky Wolf Army's main camp, returning beneath the wings of Mad Sword Feng San, Chu Yunyun, and the others to avoid covert attacks from powerful Giant Spirits-or even First-Rank experts on the Human Race's side.
Such was the nature of the Divine-Intent Death-Touching Saber: the stronger the enemy, the stronger he became.
When the enemy weakened, he weakened too.
While the army pursued and slaughtered the enemy, Chu Xisheng sat cross-legged opposite Chu Yunyun inside a tent.
They were not practicing dual cultivation.
