Chapter 518: Chapter 518: Dividing the Frost Chill Kingdom

At this moment, Lin Chen learned that after his battle with Chang Bai, the entire Formation Sect began to cultivate diligently, which immediately brought him immense pressure.

Although he had now broken through to the Reverting Void Realm, Lin Chen was aware that his journey was still long; the real powerhouses of the Formation Sect were still the True Disciples.

The Inner Sect Pride List merely recorded the disciples of the Inner Sect and did not include those True Disciples.

These True Disciples are usually not very active because they are fully supported by the Formation Sect and never lack cultivation resources. They are either in seclusion or honing their skills outside, rarely appearing within the Outer or Inner Sect of the Formation Sect.

Of course, the so-called ’True’ disciples like Dongfang Yun and Xu Hai were exceptions.

...

At this moment, within the Frost Chill Kingdom.

The army left behind by the Jade Cauldron Kingdom in the Frost Chill Kingdom had been at war with the Xuan Yin Sect for nearly a month, with both sides sustaining injuries.

In terms of the strength of powerful individuals, aside from Lin Chen, the Jade Cauldron Kingdom fell far short when compared to the Xuan Yin Sect.

However, when it came to the strength of the War Department, the Xuan Yin Sect was no match for the Jade Cauldron Kingdom.

Thus, after a month of fighting, neither side could gain the upper hand, it was a cycle of attacking and chasing, then being attacked and fleeing.

The current situation was clearly unresolvable, and this struggle would only cease once one side was completely annihilated.

Haiyue Commerce had ceased to exist long ago, but Su Jinghan and Su Yingzhou had led the remaining Haiyue Commerce martial artists to join the Jade Cauldron Kingdom.

Lin Chen naturally didn’t refuse them, after all, they had shared life and death experiences, and at the most critical moment, Su Jinghan and Su Yingzhou thought about how to help the lower-ranked martial artists of Haiyue Commerce survive by dissolving the organization. The martial artists who remained were willing to advance and retreat with Haiyue Commerce, even at the cost of their lives; Lin Chen naturally valued them.

He immediately enlisted them into the War Department, and Su Jinghan and Su Yingzhou also acquired certain positions.

After all, with Su Yingzhou’s Heavenly Human Realm strength, taking on a position wouldn’t cause any dissatisfaction amongst the Jade Cauldron Kingdom’s army within the War Department.

And in this month of great battles, the situation within the Frost Chill Kingdom and its various powers had undergone earth-shattering changes.

As the saying goes, ’when immortals fight, mortals suffer,’ the war between the two sides had a wide impact, almost engulfing half of the Frost Chill Kingdom, destroying countless small sects and families.

It was an unavoidable situation, even though it was not Lin Chen’s intention, but the law of the jungle has always been the rule of this world.

The Frost Chill Kingdom was a Second-Rank Vassal State under the Formation Sect, and the Shuanghan Empire’s royal family originally only controlled less than one-fifth of the entire country’s power.

During this battle, the Shuanghan Empire’s royalty seized the opportunity to break out and annihilate those weaker sects and families, either by absorbing them or by destruction.

With the current balance of power in the Frost Chill Kingdom already disrupted, the royal family had no choice but to commit fully.

Consequently, many weaker sects and families joined, significantly strengthening the royal family.

Thus, the Frost Chill Kingdom now found itself under the control of four major powers, with Lin Chen presiding over the Frost Chill Kingdom, Shi Xinghai’s Xuan Yin Sect, the Han Family’s Shuanghan Empire, and the Seven Kings Alliance which comprised various powers that didn’t want to be swallowed up and combined instead.

The so-called Seven Kings were seven somewhat prominent forces in the Frost Chill Kingdom, similar to the royal family, which combined with other weaker sects and families into an alliance. These seven forces declared themselves as kings, hence forming the Seven Kings Alliance.

However, compared to the other three major forces, the Seven Kings Alliance was the weakest among the four.

This was because they each had their own ulterior motives and lacked the sort of unified hearts seen in other powers.

"Senior Brother Lin, so many treasures, we’ve made a fortune this time," a female disciple from the War Department burst in from outside, excitedly reporting to Lin Chen the treasures they obtained from annihilating a power this time.

At the moment, outside the camp, fireworks filled the sky, with the bodies of martial artists strewn everywhere. Those who had survived and surrendered were now sitting in rows on the ground with their Spiritual Power sealed, looking at the army of the Jade Cauldron Kingdom with fearful eyes.

Hearing the voluptuous junior sister’s report, Lin Chen sighed softly.

Originally, Lin Chen just wanted Lingxi Sect to conduct business in the Frost Chill Kingdom, but Wang Yilin, Xu Lianyu, and Hua Lianxin, those three curious ones, came along and even killed the Young Sect Master of the Xuan Yin Sect, triggering the series of events that followed.

In fact, this was not Lin Chen’s wish; although he wanted to expand the Jade Cauldron Kingdom, he had not considered warfare as the means. Even though acquiring resources through war was indeed fast, it wasn’t a long-term solution.

With the outbreak of war in the Frost Chill Kingdom, other neighboring countries initially came with the intention of profiting from the chaos, but after waves of martial artists perished in the conflicts, people from other countries dared not enter the borders of the Frost Chill Kingdom anymore, let alone conduct business.

However, since things had already become like this, Lin Chen could only go along with the situation and continue.

Nevertheless, what Lin Chen truly sought was to establish stability in the commerce of the Frost Chill Kingdom and engage in trade with other countries using this Second-Rank Vassal State.

Therefore, after dividing the Frost Chill Kingdom into four powers and stabilizing the situation, Lin Chen let the army station in Stone Heaven City, using it as the new starting point for the Jade Cauldron Kingdom in the Frost Chill Kingdom.
