Chapter 1317: Chapter 684 Boiling News_2

At this moment, a Qi Refining Eighth Level cultivator with a ruddy complexion stood at the center of a small circle, passionately recounting the news he had learned.

"According to reliable sources, the great war on the Liang Family’s side has ended!"

"More than half of the Yuanchen Sect cultivators were killed or injured. In the end, Elder Hua led the remnants of Yuanchen Sect’s forces in a desperate retreat. The other three major factions suffered total annihilation, and even Elder Wu fell on the battlefield."

As soon as these words were spoken, those who were unaware of the news, simply passing through the area with no intention of lingering, were instantly stunned.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of those previously uninformed immediately changed drastically. They had not anticipated such a major development in the four-year-long war to occur during this time.

Moreover, from the tone of the speaker, it appeared that the Liang Family had achieved an unprecedented and overwhelming victory, completely eliminating the participants from the three major factions. Even the elite forces of the mighty Yuanchen Sect were mostly wiped out, with the survivors fleeing in disarray.

The scale of this victory was nothing short of earth-shattering news for everyone who heard about it.

Because of this, as soon as the speaker’s words left his mouth, cultivators passing by in the vicinity began to stop in their tracks, ultimately gathering toward this location.

In less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, the number of people gathered around had already surpassed a thousand and was continuing to grow at an astonishing pace.

At this moment, the first cultivator to speak was still boasting loudly.

Moreover, among the crowd of onlookers, many were clueless about the details of the news.

In particular, there was significant curiosity about the specific course of events during the war.

As a result, many cultivators began asking the speaker for more detailed information about what had transpired.

"Daoist Tian, the four major factions were so well-armed and powerful. Whether in terms of the number of Golden Core Elders or overall strength, they were clearly superior to the Liang Family. How could they have suffered such devastating losses?"

As soon as the words were spoken, others immediately chimed in with agreement.

"Indeed!"

"Didn’t you also say that even Elder Yang from the Tianqing Sect and Elder Song from the Yuanchen Sect personally took part in the battle?"

"You must know, both Elder Yang and Elder Song are veteran Late Stage Golden Core experts who have dominated Jin Feng Nation for hundreds of years."

"With the presence of these two top-tier forces who haven’t appeared in a century, it should have been impossible for their forces to be so easily defeated, let alone be nearly wiped out, right?"

"..."

Hearing this, the surnamed Tian cultivator chuckled lightly, displaying an inscrutable expression.

"Heh heh... You all don’t know the full story!"

"It is said that during the battle, Elder Song was actually a Fake Infant-level supreme powerhouse!"

"What?"

"A Fake Infant-stage expert?"

At this moment, upon hearing these words from the surnamed Tian cultivator, everyone present had drastic changes in their expressions.

Some even stammered incoherently, their faces full of disbelief.

Their reactions were understandable.

After all, most of the people here were Qi Refining cultivators, with only a small portion being Foundation Establishment cultivators.

In their eyes, Golden Core cultivators were already beings capable of flight and extraordinary feats, virtually unattainable to even meet in person.

For such lofty figures, these low-level cultivators harbored immense admiration and respect, often paying close attention to their every move.

But now, hearing the surnamed Tian cultivator claim that Song Xin was at the Fake Infant level—a supreme existence—was utterly unfathomable to them.

Such an extraordinary figure was unheard of for these lower-level cultivators, let alone seen in person.

And even more astonishing was the fact that, despite the Yuanchen Sect deploying someone like Song Xin, they ultimately still suffered a crushing defeat.

This outcome was completely beyond anyone’s expectations.

However, in the next moment, their expressions turned even more alarmed, looking increasingly incredulous.

It turned out that after chuckling lightly, the surnamed Tian cultivator began explaining the general situation of the four major factions.

Upon learning that both Yang Yinghai and Song Xin had perished one after another, everyone present was utterly shocked by this explosive revelation.

For a moment, countless cultivators had their mouths agape, seemingly frozen, as if this bombshell had left them mentally paralyzed.

No one knew how much time had passed before someone finally snapped out of it.

And at this moment, they realized an even more critical point: If Song Xin’s personal strength was so immense, then what cultivation level would the one who managed to kill him possess?

Could it be another Fake Infant cultivator?

Or perhaps, was it an elusive Nascent Soul Stage elder who had emerged from seclusion?

Thus, people finally began to react, eagerly pursuing answers.

"Daoist Tian, does the Liang Family also have a Fake Infant-level expert?"

"Or could the Liang Family be hiding a Nascent Soul expert? Or perhaps they hired a Nascent Soul expert to assist, which enabled them to kill Elder Song?"

"Otherwise, given Elder Song’s strength, even if he were outmatched, he shouldn’t have fallen so easily, right?"

As soon as those words fell, the still-dazed cultivators began regaining their senses.

Subsequently, they too started considering this possibility.

As a result, the crowd of cultivators began pressing eagerly for answers.

"Daoist Tian, which top-tier expert emerged?"

"Otherwise, this result simply doesn’t make sense!"

"Indeed... It’s simply too surprising!"

Hearing this, the surnamed Tian cultivator smiled broadly, inwardly reveling in pride, as he had clearly never experienced being the center of so much attention.

Among those questioning him, there were even quite a few Foundation Establishment cultivators.

For these figures—whom he would normally look up to—to now lower themselves to seek his words, the surnamed Tian cultivator was secretly delighted, feeling slightly elated.

However, he soon returned to composure.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, including some Foundation Establishment cultivators waiting impatiently, the surnamed Tian cultivator dared not keep them waiting for too long, lest he offend any temperamental Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Understanding this, the surnamed Tian cultivator quickly began his explanation.

This time, he gave a faint smile and said:

"Heh heh... Surely, everyone remembers the terrifying Lin Elder with the exceptional performance in the last war, right?"

Upon hearing this, the crowd was momentarily stunned.

"Oh?"

"Could it be Elder Lin Tianming, who slew two Late Stage Golden Core experts consecutively in the previous war?"

"Yes... It’s Elder Lin!"

The surnamed Tian cultivator nodded firmly, his expression full of reverence and yearning.

At this moment, however, many in the crowd remained puzzled, clearly unconvinced that Lin Tianming could have slain a Fake Infant-level Song Xin.

Yet, some cultivators with broader perspectives seemed to grasp something.

At this moment, the surnamed Tian cultivator resumed his explanation.

This time, he gave a highly detailed account, describing how Lin Tianming first slew Yang Yinghai, then the bald old monk, and ultimately Song Xin.

His retelling was so vivid and detailed that it felt as if the audience was reliving the battle themselves.

Soon, the cultivators present fully understood the sequence of events and their outcomes.

Though many still found it hard to believe, later arrivals corroborated the story, leaving them no choice but to accept this shocking truth.

Even the utterly unexpected results were gradually accepted.

Soon after, more and more cultivators congregated to join in on the buzzing discussion.

At the same time, others began to depart.

Through these individuals leaving the scene, this once-small rumor began to spread to every corner of the Golden Platform Market.

In no time, the entire Golden Platform Market was abuzz with this explosive news, regardless of venue.

Such an uproar began spreading through various means, extending beyond the Golden Platform Market to the surrounding areas and even the entire Jin Feng Country Cultivation World.
