Sa Lingtian only provided reinforcements on the flanks of the battlefield.
He was an outsider, but he still contributed his share.
The four main forces have now reached the far north, to the northernmost frontline city.
It is still hundreds of kilometers away from Yujing.
But it's not far off.
Pope Qiu could sense the aura emanating from the north every day.
“Two demigods, which means Qin is still alive.” He opened his eyes and made his judgment.
Although I can only vaguely sense it.
But that's enough.
"This means the prince is still fighting the Icefield King..."
"Good heavens, how many days has it been?"
"It's been nine days now."
Who will win?
"It's too early to say."
The officers were all talking amongst themselves, their faces filled with shock.
Even though the battle between demigods is separated by a great distance, hundreds of kilometers, their aura can still be transmitted to the front lines.
Pope Qiu's expression was somewhat solemn: "This shows that the Icefield King is a tough opponent, and young Qin is facing a bitter battle."
"If it were someone else, they would have been exhausted long ago."
"The prince's power is beyond our imagination."
Li Xin stepped forward and asked, "How many days would it take to advance to the gates of Yujing City, covering hundreds of kilometers?"
The group immediately analyzed the situation and concluded that, based on the current marching and combat speed, it would take at least half a month.
"The fighting power of the ghost soldiers has been greatly reduced, and we face very little confrontation."
"Even so, half a month is a conservative estimate."
"About a month..."
The crowd said.
Li Xin sighed: "A month is too long. The battle between demigods will have ended long ago. We won't even reach the foot of Yujing before we face the consequences."
"Either live or die."
Everyone understood that if Qin Che died, they would die too.
If the Ice King survives, the consequences will be unimaginable.
If Qin Che survives, they will be able to cross the Jade Capital and occupy the entire northern territory of the empire.
They might even find the psionic stone vein they've been longing for.
“This level of combat… it’s not easy to get close,” Pope Qiu said. “If we get even a little bit closer, we won’t be able to withstand their spiritual pressure.”
"The spiritual pressure of a demigod... is unimaginably powerful; we can sense it from hundreds of kilometers away."
"Yes, especially when it comes to getting closer..."
Li Xin remained silent.
Now that the situation on the front lines is clear, he wants to go there in person to see for himself.
"If you wish to go, I can accompany you," Pope Qiu said.
He was worried about Li Xin going alone.
As the commander of the three armies, Pope Qiu didn't know if Li Xin could withstand the spiritual pressure from Qin Xiaozi and the Icefield King.
That's incredibly powerful.
"We must go and see for ourselves. Perhaps they are engaged in a power struggle, and we are just observing from afar," Li Xin said.
The officers hurriedly tried to dissuade him.
"General, and His Holiness the Pope, it's better to be cautious and not act rashly."
"Yes, if you two go to watch, and the Icefield King seizes the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, it will implicate the Prince."
The officers expressed their concerns.
Li Xin laughed: "You are still young and don't understand the King of Qin's character."
Everyone was puzzled.
Pope Qiu was also somewhat puzzled.
He understood that Li Xin, the man before him, was Qin Che's comrade-in-arms for many years.
He knows Qin Xiaozi better than he does himself.
Li Xin said, "If we are ambushed by the Icefield King, it won't be a burden to Qin Che, because he won't come to our rescue at all."
Everyone was taken aback.
Pope Qiu was also stunned.
"He is a man who can distinguish between what is important and what is not. He won't be affected by such trivial matters. Instead, he will seize the opportunity and try to widen the gap with the Icefield King in the last second before we are ambushed, in order to win in the end."
Upon hearing this,
Everyone fell silent.
The officers looked at each other in bewilderment.
Is the prince that tough?
How can you just ignore the death of your comrades?
Pope Churchill laughed heartily: "That makes sense."
He thought this made a lot of sense.
They've reached that level; they can distinguish between what's primary and what's secondary.
It won't be a case of neglecting one aspect for another.
"So we need to go and check on the situation at the front, so we can come back and plan the army's follow-up actions," Li Xin said.
He and Pope Qiu set off from the headquarters at the foot of the great iceberg.
The two traveled very quickly.
It almost used displacement techniques.
Pope Qiu flew through the air, following closely behind.
Li Xin transformed into a golden meteor, streaking across the sky.
They can reach hundreds of kilometers in a single day.
The sky grew increasingly gloomy.
Pope Qiu looked up at the horizon and said, "The breath is getting closer."
Li Xin: "I sensed it too. It was a very strong spiritual pressure, almost suffocating."
"The army group can only be stationed here; it cannot advance any further, otherwise it will accidentally injure our own people."
Li Xin nodded solemnly.
The two continued on their journey.
Finally, I saw the sky beyond the horizon, covered with dark clouds, with lightning and thunder.
The two figures, neither visible nor intangible, collided in mid-air, like ferocious wild beasts.
The earth crumbled, the ice melted, and the turbulent river surged violently with towering waves.
"The temperature here... is actually rising... it's so hot." Li Xin clicked his tongue in amazement.
Pope Qiu said with a solemn expression, "Their spiritual pressure has isolated the cold weather and formed a huge spiritual energy field. Naturally, spiritual energy is very active here, so the temperature is rising."
"It must be around 40 or 50 degrees Celsius."
A light drizzle began to fall.
