When Zhou Yang and the others were discussing the attack on West State, Qin Tian chose to cultivate at the peak of Mist Mountain outside Black Cloud City.

For half a month straight, he would come here every day to study the ”Burning Sky Technique” and comprehend the Divine Elephant Tower.

This Burning Sky Technique is clearly a fire attribute cultivation technique, and after Qin Tian recited the mnemonic method, he realized this is a top-tier fire attribute technique, with extremely high requirements for cultivators.

However, Qin Tian practiced dual cultivation of ice and fire, so the fire attribute technique requirements of the Burning Sky Technique were child’s play to him.

As for the requirement that cultivators must reach the Great Immortal Realm, it posed no challenge to Qin Tian whatsoever.

”Use Qi as a guide, transform Qi into fire, flames into blaze...”

Qin Tian recited the mnemonic, trying to use his own fire attribute True Qi to reach the level required by the Burning Sky Technique again and again.

The Burning Sky Technique has seven levels, known as the Seven Layers of Burning Sky. When cultivated to the top level, it can burn everything! Burn heaven and earth!

”After mastering the first level, I can incinerate opponents directly in mid-air; this move is indeed vicious.”

Qin Tian was currently cultivating the first level. After seeing the mnemonic of the first level, he took a deep breath. With this Burning Sky Technique, combined with the Fiery Flame Divine Skill, perhaps he could burn the sky, burn the earth, and burn the air.

After ten days, Qin Tian was already able to master the first level’s ”Sky-controlling Fire,” and with a flick of his finger, a True Qi fireball could appear ten meters away!

Qin Tian was thinking about how to integrate the fire attribute True Qi of Fiery Flame Divine Skill into the Burning Sky Technique.

Of course, at the same time, he was also studying the mysterious Divine Elephant Tower in his Dan Tian Qi Sea.

Last time, with the help of the Divine Elephant Tower, Qin Tian astonishingly relied on the power of the divine elephant to seriously injure four top experts in one strike. Thinking back on it, Qin Tian still found it unbelievable.

They were all Great Immortal Realm masters, and one was a peak Great Immortal Realm expert of his own level!

Could it be that with one strike he swept them away?

Qin Tian sat cross-legged at the peak of Mist Mountain, closed his eyes for meditation, and directed his Divine Sense into his Dan Tian Qi Sea to glimpse the Divine Elephant Tower.

What he could now confirm was that the nine-layer height of the Divine Elephant Tower was definitely intricately linked to the nine lightnings that struck him before. Moreover, as it seems now, the ancient divine elephant should be at the First Floor of the Heaven Suppressing Tower and cannot ascend to the Second Floor.

If the first floor alone has such great power, what happens when one ascends to the second or the third floor?

Qin Tian thought to himself, he began circulating his True Qi attempting to awaken the divine elephant within the Heaven Suppressing Tower.

Roar!

When his True Qi poured into the Heaven Suppressing Tower, the divine elephant inside seemed startled awake, letting out a roar.

That sound echoed in the Dan Tian Qi Sea, giving Qin Tian a mental jolt.

”Previously it already reacted to me, now it seems I can easily establish a connection with it. That’s wonderful, in the future, with this ancient divine elephant cooperating with my Six Dragon Power, I dare say, even if I haven’t advanced to the Flying Immortal Realm, I have confidence to battle against a Flying Immortal Realm powerhouse!”

After fifteen days of secluded cultivation, Qin Tian descended Mist Mountain full of confidence and returned to Black Cloud City.

By this time, Zhou Yang and the others had already begun mobilizing troops and preparing to march towards West State.

Their strategy was simple: Zhao Lanjin and Lin Yu would lead the attack at the front, Xu Kuan and Che Aijun would defend the rear, Zhou Yang and Zuo Yuanhao would jointly plan and strategize in the middle, while Xiao Zhuang would provide various intelligence.

Under their collective planning of two hundred thousand troops, one day before Qin Tian returned to Black Cloud City, they had already quietly approached the border line between West State and the Demon Clan.

At this point, Qin Tian, Xiao Zhuang, Duan Xiaodao, and Ye Kun were all in Black Cloud City.

Qin Tian asked Xiao Zhuang, ”How is the situation in the Imperial City now? With War God going back, I think Fourth Prince should stabilize the situation soon, shouldn’t he? After all, with War God’s current prestige and strength, probably no one in the Imperial City, except the Ice Emperor, can suppress him.”

Xiao Zhuang responded with a bitter smile, ”Indeed, especially this time, after he occupied West State, rumors spread that we were utterly defeated by him. War God is in his prime in terms of reputation and prestige, even the Ice Emperor likely wouldn’t dare to do anything to him. So, now that he has returned to the Imperial City, the originally lively Imperial City has suddenly become much quieter.”

Ye Kun said, ”No wonder Fourth Prince issued several orders to urgently summon the War God back.”

Duan Xiaodao worriedly said, ”If we seize West State, will War God bring people to attack us again?”

Qin Tian grinned, ”If he comes back to attack, this time, I’d actually like to face him head-on and test his strength. Some say I’m the new War God... hehe, I’d like to first test the caliber of the old War God!”

Ten days later, the counterattack on West State officially commenced.

Just as Qin Tian anticipated, with Zhao Lanjin and Lin Yu commanding the vanguard and Zuo Yuanhao and Zhou Yang strategizing, the West State Army was in retreat, and after ten days, Zhao Lanjin’s army had reached the gates of West Capital City.

At this moment, West Capital City still had a garrison of one hundred fifty thousand.

While Zhao Lanjin and Zhou Yang had united forces summing up to one hundred eighty thousand to surround the city.

However, since War God had strengthened West Capital City’s defenses, after its transformation the defense was further enhanced, continuing to hold out with fifteen thousand troops refusing to surrender, giving Zuo Yuanhao and Zhou Yang headaches.

A fierce assault might eventually seize the city.

But once the assault is made, it would be a battle with innumerable casualties, and within ten days to half a month, it wouldn’t be possible to take down West Capital City.

By then, causing the enemy a thousand casualties while losing eight hundred yourself, if War God comes to attack again, Qin Tian would have no way to defend against it.

Therefore, Zhou Yang and Zuo Yuanhao advocated for besieging without attacking.

Moreover, they left the north gate and east gate of West Capital City open, providing Zhou Wushuang with a chance to escape with his troops.

Nonetheless, this fellow was indeed a confidant of War God, refusing to surrender, resolute to stay in West Capital to fight hard against Qin Tian, seemingly confident that Qin Tian dared not consume too many troops to fight him.

When Qin Tian saw that Zhao Lanjin had besieged West Capital City for eight days without any progress, he personally came to the frontline.

As soon as he arrived at the frontline, Qin Tian received bad news, the North State was on the move.

North State Governor Li Muyang, leading an army of one hundred fifty thousand, had already started his journey south to reinforce Zhou Wushuang!

”Old Third, how soon can Li Muyang reach West Capital City?” Upon hearing the news of Li Muyang heading south, Qin Tian’s expression turned grim.

”At the soonest, ten days.” Xiao Zhuang said.

”Ten days... hmmph.”

Between Qin Tian’s brows, there was an air of killing intent.

”If I recall correctly, last time when War God attacked West State, after Xu Kuan and Che Aijun were defeated, this Li Muyang seized the opportunity to profit, killed many of our people, looted a lot of our things, and chased us all the way to the border of the Demon Clan! Very impressive indeed!”

As he said this, Qin Tian’s expression was one of furious rage, with a hint of savagery.
