Wu Shattered Star River

Ruan Shanfu shared the latest intelligence with Jiang Han. The war had been intense recently, but it hadn't escalated; it was just more fierce than before.

The Dark Path had reinforced its troops considerably this time, and after the reinforcements arrived, they kept crossing the River of Gods to attack.

The Light Path had recently redeployed a large number of troops, but for now, they were only defending and hadn't launched any counterattacks. Some cities on the Light Path side had been captured, but they were later retaken by redeployed troops.

The situation was similar on the Thunder Path, where the Flame Path kept attacking fiercely, and the Thunder Path was struggling to hold on.

Because the Flame Cloud Path's attack was relatively sudden, the Thunder Path couldn't react in time at first and had many cities captured. Now, they were redeploying a large army to retake them.

However, so far, neither the Thunder Path nor the Light Path had detected any Ice Snow Clan activity.

Jiang Han waved his hand to dismiss Ruan Shanfu, and then he rested in the manor.

After sleeping for two days, he went north again. After crossing the River of Gods, he didn't stop but continued north, heading towards Dark Valley.

He wanted to scout Dark Valley first to see if there were any Ice Snow Clan members there. After scouting Dark Valley, he would head north to the Arctic.

After several days of traveling through the void, he arrived near Dark Valley. This was the core area of the Dark Path, similar to the vicinity of Light Mountain.

Moreover, there were more major clans near Dark Valley. Jiang Han guessed that at least half of the Dark Path's major clans were probably near Dark Valley.

He was very careful when he arrived here, cautiously scouting everywhere. He didn't dare to approach many large mountains and rivers to avoid being discovered by experts. He dared not enter Dark Valley, as it was the main camp of the Kan Clan.

Even if the Ice Snow Clan came, they certainly wouldn't enter Dark Valley. Jiang Han scouted around Dark Valley for three or four days but didn't find any Ice Snow Clan members.

However, he did gather some intelligence: the cultivators of the major clans near Dark Valley were gathering. He also discovered that at least tens of millions of cultivators were gathering under a large mountain, likely to be redeployed to the front lines.

He recorded all this intelligence and then continued north towards the Arctic.

After spending several days, he arrived at the edge of the Arctic.

He didn't dare to travel through the void anymore and flew stealthily towards the Arctic.

After flying for half a day, he still hadn't found a single creature, let alone any Ice Snow Clan members, but the unease in Jiang Han's heart grew stronger.

He stopped and hesitated for a moment before revealing his figure.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang!"

The moment Jiang Han revealed his body, the ground suddenly exploded, and countless small white beasts appeared, rushing towards him madly.

"As expected…"

A bitter smile appeared on the corner of Jiang Han's mouth. He finally understood what was different and where the unease in his heart came from.

There were too many small white beasts. His physical body couldn't withstand the onslaught and was shattered. The next moment, he was reborn in the distance and immediately concealed himself and fled.

He didn't go deeper but ran towards the outside of the Arctic.

After running for an hour, he revealed his figure, and unsurprisingly, a large number of small white beasts emerged from the ground again.

This time, he was prepared and suddenly unleashed several palms, repelling the small beasts, and then immediately concealed himself and fled.

This time, he easily escaped. He continued to run south. After another hour, he revealed his figure again, and countless small beasts still emerged from the ground.

He knocked the nearby small beasts away and flew away again.

This time, he didn't fly south because he was about to leave the Arctic. He flew east, revealing his figure every so often.

He flew east for three days, revealing his figure every hour.

As a result, every time he revealed his figure, small white beasts would fly out from below. In three days, he didn't know how far he had flown, but the ice under the ground was filled with small beasts.

"Things are getting serious!"

Jiang Han didn't continue to investigate but fled south. He didn't stop on the way and continuously traveled through the void for more than ten days, reaching the River of Gods.

The battle on the River of Gods was the same as before, not too intense, but the fighting continued.

Jiang Han didn't enter the city to find the commander of the intelligence division here. He didn't stop and went directly to Light City.

After spending a few more days, he arrived at Light City. He entered Light City and went straight to the mountain where the intelligence division was located.

As the sect leader, no cultivator dared to stop him. He arrived outside the intelligence division's main hall.

"Please help me report that I want to see Sect Leader Yunxu!"

Jiang Han said to the guard outside. As soon as he finished speaking, Pei Yunxu's voice rang out: "Jiang Han, come in directly!"

Jiang Han entered the hall. Pei Yunxu was sitting behind the desk in the main hall. The desk was covered with dense documents, and there were several Dao Ancestor Realm experts in front of him, all members of the Pei family.

Pei Yunxu stood up, looked at Jiang Han, and said, "Thank you for your hard work this time. The two pieces of intelligence you scouted were very useful."

"Lord Yunxu, you're too kind. This is what I should do!"

Jiang Han waved his hand and glanced at the cultivators in the hall. Pei Yunxu was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand and said, "You may leave!"

Several cultivators bowed and retreated. Pei Yunxu cast a stream of light, activating the formation in the hall, and asked, "What is it? Jiang Han, do you have something to say?"

Jiang Han nodded and said, "I just returned from the Arctic!"

"Uh…"

Pei Yunxu was stunned. He thought that Jiang Han had been scouting near the River of Gods during this period, but he didn't expect that he had gone to the Arctic again and returned in such a short time?

With the Immortal Evasion Technique, Jiang Han really treated the Dark Path as his own backyard. He could go there whenever he wanted.

Pei Yunxu asked, "Did you find anything?"

"Yes!"

Jiang Han said with a solemn expression, "I didn't go deep into the Arctic, I just wandered around the peripheral area. I found a large number of small white beasts gathered in the outer area…"

Jiang Han explained the situation of the first reconnaissance and this reconnaissance. Pei Yunxu's expression became solemn when he heard this.

After Jiang Han finished speaking, he said, "Those small white beasts are called Ice Beasts, and they are the slave beasts of the Ice Snow Clan. The Ice Snow Clan can control these Ice Beasts, and they are one of the Ice Snow Clan's most powerful forces."

"Ice Beasts are usually scattered throughout the Arctic. Now that they are gathering on such a large scale, it seems… the Ice Snow Clan is preparing to mobilize these Ice Beasts to support the two battlefields."

"Jiang Han, the intelligence you scouted is very important. You have made a great contribution this time. I will report to the Clan King immediately. You go back to rest first. You may need to continue scouting military intelligence later. Wait for my notification!"

Jiang Han nodded, retreated, and returned to Tianqing Peak.

Pei Yunxu hurriedly went to the mountain where the Pei Clan King was located and reported the intelligence Jiang Han brought back.

After hearing this, the Pei Clan King didn't have any surprised expression on his face. He said, "The Ice Snow Clan doesn't have many clansmen themselves, so they won't be dispatched easily. It is estimated that only a small number of them will be dispatched to control the Ice Beasts."

"These Ice Beasts will be the main force to reinforce the Dark Path and the Flame Path. Go and issue the Light Order—summon all the sect leaders of forces above three stars in the Light Path to Light City. This time, we must abandon our illusions and prepare for a bitter battle!"
