The information Lu Xiaotian intercepted about the Seven Leaf Greedy Flower Gu was not wrong. After the Howling Moon Wolf Race received the information, they quickly responded and took advantage of the fact that the Immortal army did not know the specific situation. They gathered a large number of troops and defeated the main force of the Immortal army in the Illusory Fog Swamp. For a time, blood flowed like a river. Tens of thousands of Immortal soldiers died in the Illusory Fog Swamp. There were dozens of Profound Immortals and hundreds of True Immortals. Even one of the Immortal Domain's Heavenly Immortals was severely injured by the wolf riders.
This was the worst loss the Immortal army had suffered in a single battle since they entered the Illusory Fog Swamp.
The thick smell of blood almost covered the sky for tens of thousands of miles. That old demon Ying Langtian hid in the dark and obtained a lot of benefits.
The frontline suffered an unprecedented defeat. The Howling Moon Wolf Cavalry clearly did not intend to let the Immortal army retreat to the camp at the rear. Although they also suffered a certain number of casualties, it was far less than the Immortal army.
When the wolf riders learned that the Immortal army was cultivating the Poisonous Wolf Gu, they were extremely furious. The Poisonous Wolf Gu was one of the most disgusting methods for the wolf riders. They were not afraid of dying in battle, but they were extremely afraid of dying under such methods.
The furious wolf riders pursued the Immortal army, wantonly killing them. They continued to kill along the way. Several camps of the Immortal army were destroyed in succession. Shuo Cheng and Di Chong Immortal Domain's Immortal Army that rushed to the Illusory Fog Swamp to participate in the battle was almost completely wiped out, except for a few Profound Immortals with extremely high cultivation who escaped.
In comparison, the Turtle Spirit Domain's Immortal Domain's situation was much better after suffering heavy losses.
A large number of men from the various camps at the rear were transferred forward in order to prevent the wolf riders from further attacking the camps of the Immortal army. Mou Feng was also conscripted, so the competition with Lu Xiaotian was naturally delayed indefinitely.
As for whether they would have a chance to compete again in the future, only the heavens knew. It was rumored that Fan Yi and Zhou Zeqin, the peak True Immortals of Shuo Cheng and Di Chong Immortal Domain, were not weaker than Mou Feng. Their strength might be very close, but no one knew who was stronger and who was weaker. But even if there was a difference, it would not be too big.
However, even people as powerful as Fan Yi and Zhou Zeqin, who were Consummate True Immortals, had successively fallen in battle. Moreover, according to the survivors who managed to escape from the battlefield, Fan Yi and Zhou Zeqin's True Immortal level werewolves didn't attack them from all sides. Instead, they fought them one-on-one. Although there were other immortals and the wolf-riders as well, Fan Yi and Zhou Zeqin were not the only ones affected. The True Immortal-tier wolf-riders were also affected.
The fact that the matter had ended in such a way was enough to prove the strength of the Howling Moon Wolf Clan. Even though they were at the same cultivation level, the Howling Moon Wolf Race was still ahead of the Immortal Region.
As a matter of fact, the overall power of Shuocheng and Dichong immortal realms was already much greater than that of Mu Kun and Gui Ling. Although they were not in the Last Flow Celestial Region, they were still defeated by the Howling Moon Wolf Clan who were constantly increasing their strength through the spatial tunnel. In fact, the Howling Moon Wolf Clan's counterattack had already damaged their vitality.
Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming were no longer in the mood to continue cultivating. Everyone in the Immortal Army's stronghold could not help but feel their hearts sway when they heard the terrible news.
Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming were originally part of the Immortal Army's stronghold in the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region. Because they had come to find Lu Xiaotian, they temporarily stayed in the Mu Kun Immortal Region's stronghold.
Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming had already received a message, asking them to return at a later date. Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming had already come to find Lu Xiaotian. However, the current situation was extremely chaotic. The wolf-riders' advance was beyond everyone's expectations. The Immortal Army's strongholds were destroyed one after another. A large number of Immortal Army soldiers were routed from the frontlines.
Even though Zhu Yan and Lü Yiming were confident in Lu Xiaotian's strength, when they heard that even experts like Fan Yi and Zhou Zeqin, who might not lose to Zhen Shuo and Mou Feng, had fallen one after another, they did not dare to mention returning to the Turtle Spirit Immortal Region's stronghold with Lu Xiaotian and the others.
They were blocked here. Although they were in the Mu Kun Immortal Region's stronghold and had the advantage in numbers, it did not give them much sense of security.
Because the frontlines were routed too quickly, and the losses were too heavy, the Immortal Army's strongholds were constantly being breached. At this time, the Immortal Army's strongholds at the rear were especially needed to stabilize. While receiving these routed soldiers, they could also slow down the wolf-riders' speed. This would serve as a buffer for the Immortal Army's reinforcements coming from further behind.
No one knew how many wolf-riders there were in the Mystic Swamp right now. However, if such a rout went out of control, it would eventually cause the Immortal Army's reinforcements to be unable to gain a foothold and hastily fight the Howling Moon Wolf Cavalry. They were not a match for the wolf-riders even after setting up their strongholds. What would happen if they were to hastily fight the wolf-riders? Anyone with a discerning eye could see the reality.
However, what was even more frightening than a rout on the battlefield was the fact that fear was spreading through the Immortal Army at an even faster rate.
So far, the Heavenly Court had sent as many as eight Immortal Realms to the Mystic Swamp.
Every Immortal Realm had some dangerous areas, or new dangers would appear due to the constant changes in the endless void. Therefore, a certain amount of Immortal Army had to be left behind to oversee the situation. It was impossible to mobilize all of the Immortal Realm's Immortal Army without any scruples.
The Immortal Realm's Immortal Army was only equivalent to the local armies of the Heavenly Court. They were not directly under the Heavenly Court's command.
Even so, when the Immortal Army of eight Immortal Realms joined forces, it was already a terrifying force. Under such circumstances, they still suffered defeat after defeat against the wolf-riders. It was not only the Immortal Army that suffered defeat after defeat, but also the morale of the Immortal Realm's Immortal Army.
In short, the Immortal Army in the Mystic Swamp had basically been routed, with countless casualties. Moreover, the wolf-riders had been attacking the strongholds, making it difficult for the Immortal Army to gain a foothold in the outskirts. The overall situation of the Immortal Army was showing signs of defeat.
In the eyes of the Immortal Realms, they could only send out more Immortal Patrol Armies to patrol the Immortal Realms, or the Heavenly Court's most elite Immortal Army. Only then could they contend against the wolf-riders.
The Howling Moon Wolf Cavalry's reputation did not only exist in the Demon Realm, but also in the Immortal Realm, Ghost Realm, and Demon Realm.
The Immortal Patrol Army had the responsibility of patrolling and suppressing the Immortal Realms. For the Heavenly Court, they were also part of the local Immortal Army. They were already more elite than the Immortal Realms. They were considered mid-level in the Immortal Realm.
As for the Heavenly Court's Immortal Army, they were the first elites sent to the Immortal Demon Battlefield to conquer other Heavenly Courts. Perhaps they were still inferior to the Howling Moon Wolf Cavalry, but they were definitely not something the local Immortal Army could compare to. It was just that the wolf-riders had attacked too quickly this time. The response of the nearby Immortal Realms could not be said to be slow, and their troops were also mobilized extremely quickly. However, the gap between them and the Howling Moon Wolf Cavalry was not something that could be completely made up for with simple numbers.
