Chapter 77 Another Breakthrough
On this day, in the camp, Lu Yuan, who had just gone through a battle, let out a deep breath.
In ten days, both the Dayong side and the Yan Prince's side suffered different losses.
The battle between the two sides was evenly matched overall, and it would not be easy to eliminate the other side in a short period of time.
Lu Yuan, on the other hand, has improved his strength considerably.
After it had just gotten dark and he was sure there were no other tasks, he opened the data panel.
Name: Lu Yuan
Age: 17
[Cultivation Technique: Rank 3 Cultivation Technique "Wind and Thunder Slaying General Blade Technique" (18437/10000 Great Success, Breakthrough?)]
[Third-grade martial arts technique "Tiger Subduing Stance" for liver refinement (11932/10000 Great Success, breakthrough possible?)]

[Second-grade martial art "Rain of Arrows" (13827/10000 Great Success, Breakthrough?)]
"breakthrough!"
At this moment, Lu Yuan naturally did not hesitate and directly chose to break through.
The next moment, changes occurred in his body; his arm strength and flexibility increased several times over.
[Cultivation Technique: Grade 3 Cultivation Technique "Wind and Thunder Slaying General Blade Technique" (8437/30000 Perfection)]
Next, the liver area was affected. A surge of vital energy burst forth, a large amount of impurities in the body were expelled, and the body's strength also increased.
Lu Yuan felt his power growing stronger and stronger.
When you grasp it, it feels as if you could smash a hill to pieces; of course, this is just an illusion caused by the sudden increase in strength.
However, it is undeniable that his power has now reached a terrifying level.
[Third-grade martial arts technique "Tiger Subduing Stance" for liver refinement (1932/30000 perfect)]
As the liver refinement breakthrough reached its peak, the Primordial Golden Bell Shield also began to erupt, and the Primordial Qi surrounding the five internal organs became even stronger.
It continuously nourishes the inner body.
His physical strength was constantly increasing, and the activity of his muscles was jumping even more terrifyingly at this moment.
It gleamed with a bright, oily sheen.
Mysterious patterns, shimmering with a glassy hue, danced across his body.
[Third-Rank Kung Fu Technique: Hunyuan Golden Bell Cover (3928/30000 Perfection)]
At this moment, his understanding of formations also came, and various military formation experiences appeared in Lu Yuan's mind. It was as if he had been training on the battlefield for countless years.
[Second-grade formation "One-Character Long Snake Formation" (8312/30000 Perfection) Additional effects: Increased defense, entanglement and killing]
Then comes the improvement of archery skills.
The dexterity of my fingers and arms, as well as my eyesight, are improving in a terrifying way.
At this moment, Lu Yuan felt that even at night, his gaze could effortlessly lock onto any object in the distance, and the other party could not possibly escape his perception.
[Second-grade martial arts technique "Rain of Arrows" (3827/30000 Great Success, Perfect)]
At this moment, Lu Yuan could clearly feel that his strength had increased by more than double compared to the past.
When I stood up.
"Crackling and popping!"
A crisp sound emanated from within his own body.
Just as he was feeling the effects of the breakthrough in his body.
A voice rang out from outside the tent: "Lord Lu, General Zhou invites you to dine in his tent."
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow, looking at the sky, which had completely darkened; it was indeed time for dinner.
Now that the army has set up camp, Zhou Hongling still arranges his meals every day.
Moreover, nowadays they eat almost everything in the enemy's tents, except for breakfast.
Various medicinal diets that enhance cultivation were served in turn.
The reason why his cultivation level improved so quickly was also related to Zhou Hongling.
"I understand, you can go now."
After Lu Yuan responded, he walked out of the tent.
The camp today is quite different from when we first arrived. Back then, all the soldiers were in high spirits, and when they ate around the campfire, some would even sing folk songs from their hometowns.
But now, besides the dead soldiers, many of the survivors are also injured and are eating their meals in silence.
When Lu Yuan arrived at Zhou Hongling's tent, food had already been laid out on the table.
Although it can't compare to what we had at home, it was still quite abundant, at least the quantity of medicinal herbs was plentiful.
Clearly, Zhou Hongling brought quite a lot with her when she came.
Today she was wearing a black battle dress with a dark body armor over it. Although she seemed a little thinner than before, she was still very voluptuous.
His entire upper body resembled undulating mountains.
Especially when paired with her snow-white, radiant skin, she looks even more beautiful.
Even on the battlefield, it was dazzling.
Upon seeing Lu Yuan arrive, the solemnity on Zhou Hongling's face receded like the tide, replaced by a smile.
"Sit down and try today's new dish."
After saying that, she put a piece of meat on Lu Yuan's plate.
"Thank you, sir."
"There are no outsiders here, so there's no need to be so polite," Zhou Hongling said with a smile as she continued to pick up food.
He then continued, "I received news today that the main force of the Northern Barbarians clashed with Marquis Yundu and his men a few days ago, and both sides suffered heavy casualties."
Are they currently at a standoff?
Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow: "A standoff?"
"Yes, there is a standoff. I heard that the Northern Barbarians sent envoys to the capital to negotiate peace, and they sent many gifts to the court nobles and the royal family."
The tide has turned in the court; some people are now advising His Majesty to negotiate peace with the Northern Barbarians.
Moreover, the war did not go as smoothly as expected.
Therefore, His Majesty also wavered somewhat.
Zhou Hongling's eyes showed indignation, but she had no control over such important matters of the court; she was just a mere town general.
Even the Zhou family, in front of those truly important figures.
He was just an ant, no different from Lu Yuan.
All they had to do was obey orders.
"We've wasted so much time and money, and so many people have died..."
"We're just pawns in the hands of the higher-ups; most things are decided by the imperial court," Zhou Hongling said with a bitter smile.
Then he continued, "Just do your own thing."
Lu Yuan fell silent, because he was thinking of Xiao Hua. If the war were to end, the other side might be safer.
"So what do we do on our side? Should we continue fighting?"
"The main force halted the fighting to prevent the war from escalating further. However, if the court wants to gain more benefits, it still depends on the performance of the army on the battlefield."
Therefore, we will continue, and our victory or defeat will likely determine whether the imperial court will continue the war against the northern barbarians.
Therefore, the battles with the Northern Barbarians will become even more intense in the days to come.
The King of Yan might even leave his camp.
Zhou Hongling said affirmatively.
Lu Yuan nodded without saying anything.
The former continued slowly, "No matter what, your performance on the battlefield this time has been seen by the family. Don't overthink it during this period, just focus on breaking through as soon as possible."
"The position of Captain of Icefield City will be reserved for you. Your family will arrange for you to return to the Zhang family with them and bring your mother over."
Clearly, Zhou Hongling had been paying close attention to the Zhang family's affairs.
"Thank you, General." Lu Yuan said with emotion. He had always been worried about his mother, but the Northern Frontier was not a place he could just leave on a whim, especially since the journey was so long.
Now that Zhou Hongling has spoken, there are no more problems.
After the battle ends and he returns, he plans to go to Yunzhou and bring his mother to live with him.
