Hearing Shen Ruyan’s words, Dongfang Tianxing’s heart immediately filled with joy.
In his mind, if he could invite even two Heavenly Lords to help, it would already be a great success.
It would be even better if there were three.
However, what he didn’t expect was that there would be four.
Although Dongfang Tianxing was unaware that Jiang Chengxuan had broken through to Soul Formation, Jiang Chengxuan’s demonstration of strength during the previous battle was evident to all.
He could certainly be considered a combatant of the Soul Formation level.
Of course.
In this situation, the person Dongfang Tianxing valued the most was Shen Ruyan.
She had just ascended to Soul Formation and had already slain three Heavenly Lords.
Even Xiao Shenji and Wu Xin suffered defeats at her hands.
In the entire Northern Border, which Soul Formation force had the deepest foundation? It was definitely the Purple Sun Palace.
However, which Soul Formation Heavenly Lord in the Northern Border was the strongest?
Dongfang Tianxing believed that, based on Shen Ruyan’s performance, if she claimed to be the second strongest, no one would dare claim to be the first.
At that moment.
Dongfang Tianxing nodded happily.
“With several of you willing to go to the Western Desert to help in the battle, I believe this time, we can definitely make the Eastern End and Central Plain return without any success.”
After that.
Everyone discussed more specific details of the plan.
When everything was almost set, Dongfang Tianxing took Shui Xianlan and others and left Mount Mystic Tai to head towards the super large cross-region teleportation array leading to the Western Desert.
This was the foundation of their alliance.
As allies, the super large cross-region teleportation arrays connecting each other should naturally be open to one another.
A few months later.
At the edge of the Abyss of Celestial Beasts outside the Western Desert, hundreds of large floating warships impressively appeared with a magnificent momentum.
On them, several terrifying auras, profound and oceanic, terrified the demon beasts in the sea.
Not to mention coming out to provoke and stop them, even the moment they sensed the terrifying auras, they all dived into the deep sea and did not dare to rashly appear.
Under such circumstances, the cultivators on the large floating warships quickly began setting up defensive lines and arrays.
In just a few months.
A super-large war fortress appeared at the edge of the Abyss of Celestial Beasts, extending deep into the sea area.
Above it, Level 6 array flickered with light.
This turned the area into a formidable and sturdy defensive line.
Deep within the Abyss of Celestial Beasts, several huge figures emitting terrifying auras stared coldly at the massive fortress radiating endless light at the edge of the distant sea. Ice-cold hostility flickered in their eyes.
Suddenly, an enormous shadow let out a deep and angry voice,
“The humans have gone too far!
They act so boldly on our territory. Don’t you think we should do something?”
Hearing this, a figure as large as an island responded with a cold laugh,
“Do what? It’s a special period now, what can we do?
Do you want our entire clan to be abandoned by this world?
They know very well that we dare not touch them at this moment, that’s why they are so brazen in front of us.”
“Alright”
At this moment, a deep voice slowly spoke up.
“Anyway, it’s a special period now, and we can’t easily make a move against the humans.
If we do, we might fall into their trap.
But just because we can’t act doesn’t mean others can’t.
I know that there is intense infighting among humans.
Maybe we can use this opportunity to let them fight each other and deplete their own strength.
When this period is over, our demon race might be able to take action.”
“You mean to tell the humans in the Eastern and Central Plain about what is happening here?”
“That’s right.
Let them fight among themselves.
No matter who wins or loses, it will significantly weaken their overall strength.
Tell our young ones not to get close to the humans, to avoid getting caught in the crossfire and losing their lives for nothing.”
Not long after.
Xiao Shencong, Xiao Shenji, Wu Xin, and Daoist Shang Tong, who were ready to advance towards the Western Desert, suddenly received a message.
The message came from the Abyss of Celestial Beasts.
It detailed not only the alliance between the Western Desert and the Northern Border but also the establishment of a super-large defensive line at the edge and within the Abyss of Celestial Beasts.
This news caused Xiao Shencong, Xiao Shenji, and others to furrow their brows.
Xiao Shenji, with a cold glint in his eyes, said sternly,
“That Dongfang Tianxing and Murong Xian, they truly seek death, daring to ally with the Northern Border to oppose us. They deserve to die.”
“It seems they have been planning this for a while.”
Wu Xin added gravely,
“Our attempt to take over the Sect of Infinite Boundaries in the Western Desert might require more effort than expected.”
“That is very true.”
Xiao Shencong nodded slightly.
“Fortunately, before coming here, His Majesty granted me the Ethereal Glow of the Nine Heavens Saber.
With this saber in hand, even if the other side has some trump cards, they won’t be able to withstand us.
Even if Shen Ruyan is there, it will be the same.”
Hearing Xiao Shencong mention Shen Ruyan, the faces of Xiao Shenji and Wu Xin in the room turned somewhat ugly.
What happened that day had truly embarrassed and humiliated them to a great extent.
“Everyone, do you think that the demon race of the Abyss of Celestial Beasts informing us of this could be part of a plot?”
Suddenly.
Daoist Shang Tong seemed to have thought of something and could not help but ask suspiciously.
Hearing his words, Xiao Shencong, Xiao Shenji, Wu Xin, and the others could not help but sneer.
“A plot?
In my opinion, it’s an open strategy.
They clearly want us to engage in a bitter fight with the Western Desert and the Northern Border so that they can reap the benefits later.
But I believe it won’t take long for them to lose the mood to watch the drama unfold.”
More than ten days later.
On the battle fortress at the edge of the Abyss of Celestial Beasts.
Suddenly, someone rang the warning bell twelve times.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
With the sound of the alarm bell.
Shui Xianlan, Glowleaf, Su Qingchan, Sword Lord Azure Blue, and Jiang Anran appeared one after another above the war fortress.
They looked up.
They saw that within the Abyss of Celestial Beasts, a fleet of imposing large warships had appeared, each one brimming with cultivators.
However, it was quickly noted that many cultivators on these ships were dressed in tattered clothes, their auras weak.
It was evident that these were the Southern Wilderness cultivators captured by the Eastern End and the Central Plain.
Were they intending to use these captives as cannon fodder to deplete the strength of the defenders?
This was very possible.
At the very least, with everyone’s understanding of the cultivators from their two regions, it was not surprising that they would do such a thing.
BOOM!
After a long time.
After a while, the large warships, resembling fierce beasts, hovered about ten thousand miles away from the war fortress.
Soon, cultivators dressed in the attire of various sects from the Eastern End and the Central Plain approached the fortress and shouted loudly, “What do you mean by this?
Seeing the people from the Eastern and Central Plain, why aren’t you making way for us to enter?
Could it be that you really want to become enemies with us?”
Hearing this, Shui Xianlan, Su Qingchan, and others on the war fortress sneered.
“Did these people not get any advice from their elders before coming here?
Who gave them the audacity to bark so wildly in front of us?”
As they spoke, numerous beams of light rose from the fortress, transforming into terrifying columns of light that shot towards the approaching cultivators. BOOM!
Instantly, dozens of people were hit by the light columns, turning into fireworks in the sky, screaming as they vanished without a trace.
This scene utterly terrified the remaining ones.
They never thought that facing the cultivators from the Eastern End and the Central Plain, these people did not even have the intention to talk to them. Instead, they directly attacked.
“Run, quickly!”
The surviving cultivators didn’t dare to stay any longer, frantically fleeing back in the direction they came from.
“Go back and tell your people, if they insist on entering the Western Desert, ask them if they are ready to meet their end,” someone from the fortress shouted after them.
The people who were fleeing crazily suddenly heard a voice coming from behind them. All of them were shocked. “They’re insane! Those people must be insane!”
In the past, they were always flattered wherever they went.
They did not expect the other party to be so unyielding.
Nor did they expect to be attacked so mercilessly.
Soon.
These fleeing cultivators returned to their own large warships.
Without hesitation, they relayed their encounter and the words they heard, even exaggerating the details to their elders.
Immediately, a terrifying aura of killing intent erupted from the large warships of the Eastern End and the Central Plain.
Accompanying this was a series of angry shouts.
After a while, dozens of warships surged forward, heading straight towards the war fortress.
BOOM!
As the large warships drew near, each one activated their spiritual Qi cannons, which emitted dazzling light beams, and began bombarding the war fortress in unison..
