Immortality Martial Arts: I Started with the Five Animals Health Fist
Chapter 378: Innate Martial Artist! Spiritual Energy Infusion, Three Flowers Gathering at the Top!This is quite an exaggeration, but Su Changkong, who cultivated the Turtle Breath Technique, had a prolonged breath. If it had been any other martial artist in the Qi-Blood Realm fighting back and forth like this, they would have been worn out from exhaustion; even so, Su Changkong still faintly felt a trace of fatigue.
“Woo woo woo!”
Finally, the sound of the horn for troops to retreat resonated from the rear of the Black Wolf Army.
The leaders of the Black Wolf Army were not fools, recognizing the collapsing momentum of this battle; continuing to fight would inevitably result in even graver losses. The only option was to retreat, even though such a retreat could greatly demoralize their soldiers, potentially losing the commanding position in future bloody battles. But retreat they must!
“Chase! Kill all these savages!”
A large number of Black Wolf Army soldiers began their retreat while the Dafeng Iron Cavalry pursued and killed, leaving bodies in their wake.
“Thump thump thump!”
It was not until they chased for almost a hundred miles, nearly crossing the vast grassland, that the signal for the Dafeng Iron Cavalry to retreat was sounded within the military formation.
Do not pursue a desperate enemy; all the cavalrymen who pursued were already very exhausted after the battle. Chasing the enemy into their territory could result in a counterattack. It was time to reap the benefits of their success and withdraw!
“This battle… we won!”“Commander Hong! Commander Hong has killed the Black Wolf Army’s great warrior and captured as many as three battle flags!”
The Dafeng Iron Cavalry returned in triumph without a doubt, the focus of this battle was ‘Hong Zhenxiang’!
‘Hong Zhenxiang,’ with a sword that hasn’t aged, was like a War God in this battle, charging back and forth, killing countless enemy generals and soldiers, and capturing several of the enemy’s battle flags. This drove the entire Dafeng Iron Cavalry to madness.
That’s what it means to be a hero!
“It stinks…”
As for Su Changkong himself, after a bout of slaughter, his star-patterned golden armor, already smeared with dried blood, was a mess. The crevices of the armor even had broken fingers stuck in them, making him look as if he had walked out of a slaughterhouse.
“Killing so many, I’ve grown tired of it as well,” Su Changkong sheathed his constantly trembling Monster Wailing Blade, silently contemplating in his heart.
Having personally entered the battlefield and decisively defeated the Black Wolf Army, Su Changkong did not feel much joy or excitement; rather, he was filled with a sorrow for the cheapness of human life!
“Zhenxiang! Well done!”
At the city gates, Pei Yang had already been personally awaiting them, his laughter open and joyful.
This complete victory in battle almost certainly decided the state of the blood war. Their morale soared high, while the Black Wolf Army, having suffered a major defeat, was surely demoralized. Now in the leading position, they could control the battle, and their losses would be minimal!
Whoosh!
Next to him, soldiers carrying buckets of water helped rinse the bloodstains from Su Changkong’s armor. The dried blood mixed with the water and dripped to the ground, murky and tainted.
At night, Pei Yang held a victory feast to reward the soldiers and boost morale.
But, using the excuse that the day’s battle had greatly exhausted him, Su Changkong declined. Secondly, he was not the real Hong Zhenxiang, and misspeaking at the feast could lead to embarrassing situations.
“Heavenly Dao is heartless; all living beings are as insignificant as straw dogs. If you don’t want to become cannon fodder or as insignificant as dust, then you must strive to improve yourself,” Su Changkong silently reflected in his heart, practicing in his residence, his perception of Spiritual Energy becoming clearer, and his progress in the Guiding Technique growing rapidly.

Just as Pei Yang said, the Dafeng Iron Cavalry took the initiative after Su Changkong’s personal victory, sending troops to challenge the Black Wolf Army’s fortresses. Both sides suffered casualties in the large-scale battles, but the Dafeng Iron Cavalry consistently had the fewest losses.
Everything was developing in a good direction.
In the blink of an eye, it was two months since Su Changkong arrived at the Sunset Fortress. He had only fought three times in these two months, and every time he took to the field, the Black Wolf Army crumbled almost instantly, sounding the retreat at his appearance, avoiding battle.
In two months, the Dafeng Iron Cavalry lost ten to twenty thousand men, while the Black Wolf Army suffered over fifty thousand casualties! This was undoubtedly a significant advantage!
“It’s nearly over!” Pei Yang felt bursts of relief; this blood battle was nearing its end. His side held a massive advantage with minimal sacrifice, which meant he could continue to secure his position as the State Governor.
“Su Tailai… truly a dragon among men! He is even more monstrous than Zhenxiang… It’s a pity; he won’t stay in Dafeng State City,” Pei Yang sighed inwardly. He knew that their smooth progress in the battle was inseparable from Su Changkong’s help. Although it was just one man impersonating Commander Hong, his mass killings were enough to greatly boost the Dafeng Iron Cavalry’s morale.
An army with high spirits and an army in low spirits show completely different combat strengths!
But Pei Yang also understood that with Su Changkong’s character, he wouldn’t stay in Dafeng State City like Hong Zhenxiang. His efforts in this battle were only due to a deal between them.
At night, after practicing the Five Animal Frolics for a while, Su Changkong started practicing the Guiding Technique. There was excitement in his eyes because he had been focusing on the Guiding Technique and had gained insight, which led to rapid progress. He was now approaching the threshold of the Eight Realms.
If nothing unexpected happened, he would break through tonight!
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Gathering his thoughts, Su Changkong began practicing the Guiding Technique, breathing rhythmically, his brain emptying, allowing his spirit and intent to move on their own, immersing himself in an ethereal state.
Su Changkong could feel the flow of Spiritual Energy between heaven and earth, which, though seemingly gentle, was actually quite chaotic!
“Hoo!”
As Su Changkong entered into the state, his body slightly heated up, and the cultivation of the Guiding Technique reached its peak. He could feel a vast amount of Spiritual Energy being drawn to him, converging around him.
