Tianhai Fairy Journey

Chapter 1441 Arrangement
Linnan Sea area.

With the arrival of reinforcements from the four top forces, including the Hehuan Sect, the previously losing situation was instantly reversed.

Compared to the past, in this battle in the South China Sea, the five major forces went all out, without holding back as before. Under their orders, the top Nascent Soul cultivators in each camp also rapidly converged on the entire South China Sea.

In a short time, the entire power of the Taiyuan Realm was gathered in the South China Sea.

Faced with such a fierce counterattack, the allied forces of the two ancient alien races, the Sea Clan and the Soul Clan and the Ziyang Cloud Clan, were caught off guard and suffered heavy losses.

Although they had long anticipated the support from the four sects of the Hehuan Sect, they never expected that the four sects would actually provide almost all of their support, which was truly beyond their imagination.

What surprised them even more was the other force – the demonic cultivators.

In their plan, the two major demonic sects and the four top forces, including the Hehuan Sect, were supposed to be intertwined, leaving Fuling Island isolated and helpless.

Unexpectedly, the demonic cultivators did not take the opportunity to expand their territory in the Taiyuan Realm. Instead, the two sides secretly reached an agreement and began a full-scale attack on the sea race.

This sudden change caught both the sea creatures and the two ancient alien races somewhat off guard.

At this moment.

The Heavenly Demon Sect and the Yin Corpse Sect, each from two directions, were like two sharp blades of heaven and earth, piercing straight into the sea race's forces without any intention of stopping. Meanwhile, the combined forces of the five major powers in the core battlefields surrounding the Fuyue Islands had firmly gained the upper hand, and the situation was beginning to turn extremely unfavorable for the sea race and the allied forces of the two ancient alien races.

The sea creatures, in particular, began to panic.

Those two demonic sects traversed the seas, leaving the land a bloody mess and slaughtering the people. If they are not stopped, the entire sea race will likely suffer a devastating blow.

Those seemingly ordinary sea tribes are actually the foundation for the growth of the entire sea race.

Only an absolute number can give birth to more powerful sea creatures.

Just as the sea creatures began to consider their next course of action.

One of the core battlefields in the Fuyue Islands.

The sky was filled with starlight, and the phantom images of stars were deeply embedded in the space between heaven and earth, like an ancient star world.

The power of countless stars materialized into the Milky Way, hanging high between heaven and earth.

Upon closer inspection, one can vaguely see a silver palace floating in the depths of the Milky Way.

Deep inside the main hall.

Several figures sat facing each other.

"Thank you both, Fellow Daoists Baohua and Baohua, for coming to our aid!"

The two men from Xinggong took the initiative to stand up and bow.

"Fellow Daoist Chen Fu, there's no need for such formalities!"

Lingbao Sect's True Monarch Baohua quickly waved his hand: "Logically speaking, this matter concerns our five major powers, yet we have troubled all the fellow Daoists from the Star Palaces to come and assist us. If anyone should express gratitude, it should be the two of us thanking the two fellow Daoists for their efforts in maintaining peace in the Taiyuan Realm."

"Furthermore, even if we're talking about gratitude, the two of you should be thanking that True Monarch Qingxuan. Even without our arrival, they wouldn't have been able to cause any trouble!"

For a moment, both the two from Xinggong and the two from Lingbaozong had complex expressions and were filled with emotion.

This battle allowed the four of them to fully witness just how terrifying the strength of Qingxuan Zhenjun, who single-handedly facilitated the cooperation between the five major forces and the two demonic sects, truly was.

Logically speaking, given his age, he should have only recently advanced in cultivation, but his true strength was enough to directly overwhelm two late-stage fourth-tier experts from the Ziyang Cloud Clan.

Faced with such absolute power, the opponent's almost heaven-defying cultivation speed became insignificant.

In the world of cultivation, strength ultimately reigns supreme.

"I hope Fellow Daoist Qingxuan can kill that Soul Clan expert. Otherwise, although we won this battle, we didn't achieve much!"

The four of them shook their heads helplessly at the same time.

After the Azure Profound True Monarch left, the four of them began a fierce battle with the three Purple Sun Cloud Clan experts and the Sea Clan experts, but the result was that all of them escaped. Although Chen Fu relied on his strong physical cultivation to severely injure another Purple Sun Cloud Clan expert, he still managed to escape.

They didn't expect that at the last moment, the three late-stage fourth-tier Ziyang Cloud Clan experts would have fusion abilities and escape directly. As for the Sea Clan expert, he saw that the situation was not good and managed to escape first.

At this moment.

A figure in cyan slowly descended into the hall.

The other four people stood up at the same time and bowed respectfully, saying, "Fellow Daoist Qing!"

"Four friendly Daoists!"

Li Qing smiled and returned the greetings one by one.

"Fellow Daoist Qing left in such a hurry that we two haven't had a chance to personally thank you for risking your life to come and help us!"

The elder of the Chen family and the other powerful figure from the Star Palace bowed solemnly at the same time.

Unlike their previous politeness, the two were now genuinely sincere.

At the beginning of the battle, the two faced an attack from five powerful alien races. Even with the support of the Star Array, the situation was extremely critical. If it weren't for the fact that True Monarch Qingxuan arrived first, the two might have faced a real crisis.

"Why should you two fellow Daoists be so polite with me!"

Li Qing chuckled lightly: "If it weren't for the Grand Elder's favor back then, I'm afraid my cultivation wouldn't have progressed so smoothly!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Fu's smile widened even further.

As it turns out, that seemingly insignificant investment back then yielded a huge return.

Because of the ancient teleportation array, this True Monarch Qingxuan owes the Star Palace a favor. As the other party's strength becomes increasingly terrifying, the value of this favor will be immeasurable.

It's likely that even the Grand Elder didn't expect that the monstrous genius who had just entered the Nascent Soul realm back then would, in just two hundred years, become a Nascent Soul late-stage powerhouse whose abilities far surpassed those of his peers.

As if he had just thought of something, Chen Fu suddenly became excited.

The reason why the Star Palace can still maintain its dignity as a top power and appear to be on par with other top powers is because the outside world is unaware of the Star Lord's physical death.

The Star Palace is now like a magnificent palace that could collapse at any moment. Once the Star Lord's affair is exposed, the entire Star Palace will be instantly reduced to ashes. The top forces of the Ancient Profound Realm will never give up the opportunity to annex the Star Palace's territory.

That is why the Star Palace spared no effort in supporting Fuling Island, hoping to gain new opportunities from that ancient star relic and help the new Star Lord break through to the peak of the fourth tier.

The small star world inside the Star Palace is decaying more and more, and the normal path for the Star Lord to advance has been blocked. The Star Palace now has no way out.

That being said, they all understood that the chances of obtaining such an opportunity were extremely slim.

Looking across the entire sealed land, every great cultivator is above heaven and earth, looking down upon all living beings. Such beings have only existed in a very small number throughout history.

"If, if this person were to one day reach the level of a Great Cultivator..."

Having just experienced what happened, Chen Fu became even more determined in his decision.

With the world in turmoil, how long can the matter of the Star Lord be kept secret? The Star Palace must also find a way out to avoid the extinction of its lineage.

The Azure Profound True Monarch before them was fully qualified to be one of the Star Palace's escape routes. "Given the extraordinary talent he has displayed, he has a great chance of glimpsing the realm of a Great Cultivator."

Just as Chen Fu began to ponder plans concerning the future of the Star Palace.

The hall fell silent once more.

Seeing this, the powerful Master Baohua of the Lingbao Sect began to proactively discuss the subsequent action plans of the five major forces.

"The elders are of one mind and want to seize this opportunity to launch a more proactive offensive in order to thoroughly cripple the sea race and deter them from coveting the Lin'nan Sea again."

Li Qing nodded slightly.

This is definitely a great opportunity.

The whereabouts of the two ancient alien races, the Ziyang Cloud Clan and the Soul Clan, are unknown to the outside world. Only the Sea Clan is the strongest alien force that is openly known.

With the assistance of the Yin Corpse Sect and the Heavenly Demon Sect, if the five major forces of Fuling Island were to join forces, they could definitely take the opportunity to severely damage the Sea Clan and greatly weaken their foundation.

This action certainly aligns with his interests.

His goal was to force out the ancient dragon whale, kill it, and help the Blood Spirit Flood Dragon complete its final ascension.

"I wonder what plans Fellow Daoist Qingxuan and the two of you have for the future?"

Faced with the question from the powerful True Monarch Baohua, Chen Fu and his companion exchanged a glance and replied without hesitation, "We hope you will forgive us, Fellow Daoist, but we are afraid that the Star Palace will no longer be able to fight alongside you!"

"The Ancient Profound Realm is currently in turmoil, and the Star Palace is also facing immense pressure."

The Star Palace would never continue to participate in this war at any cost for the benefit of the five major powers. For them, it was enough to preserve the ancient star ruins deep in the world where the Demon Meteor Space descended.

As for the excuse he just mentioned, it does exist.

Within the Ancient Xuan Realm, the Star Palace's power is the most declining and is indeed facing enormous pressure.

"I will certainly participate!"

Li Qing smiled faintly: "However, I will no longer act with you fellow Daoists from now on, so that it will be more convenient for me to take action at any time!"

Participating in this war as a lone wolf would be more in his best interest.

"That's fine!"

Although the powerful Bao Hua Zhenjun was slightly disappointed, he still smiled and echoed a few words.

At this moment.

Li Qing took the initiative to ask a new question: "I heard that this war among the sea tribes was personally launched by the Kun King's lineage, while the other lineage did not take any action?"

"Not bad!"

The powerful Bao Hua Zhenjun nodded deeply: "Currently, the sea race is divided into two major factions. One is led by the Sea Sacrifice Clan, and the other is led by the Kunmu Great Tribe, the former rulers of the sea race!"

"However, King Kun's control over the sea tribes is profound, and the power he can mobilize is far beyond what the other lineage can match."

"In order to avoid provoking the Sea Sacrifice lineage, our counterattack will primarily target the sea-folk forces within the Kunmu Great Tribe's camp."

After hearing the whole story, Li Qing became even more curious.

The conflict between the two factions is now quite significant.

The war launched by King Kun was so large in scale that he even went so far as to unite with two ancient alien races, but under such circumstances, the Sea Sacrifice lineage remained inactive.

A moment later, the two from Lingbao Sect took their leave, preparing to return to reorganize the cultivator army in this land and continue their advance towards the sea tribe.

Only Li Qing and Xing Gong remained in the main hall.

"Fellow Daoist Qingxuan has already done a great deal of work for the stability of the Taiyuan Realm. There is really no need for him to get involved in this mess!"

Chen Fu continued, his tone tinged with a hint of admonition: "Neither the sea race nor those two ancient alien races are as simple as they appear on the surface!"

"Especially those two ancient alien races, who came from beyond the realm, must have powerful hidden trump cards."

"Elder Chen Fu is absolutely right!"

Li Qing smiled faintly, "But I have other purposes for this trip, so I really must participate!"

"Since that's the case, we two won't offer any further advice, but Fellow Daoist Qing should still be careful!"

The other powerful Star Palace True Monarch solemnly said, "Although these ancient alien race experts who appeared in this great battle are also at the late stage of the fourth rank, their strength is not considered that of strong people. They only appear so powerful because of their racial bloodline!"

"There must be even more powerful beings within their race; those are the real threats."

Li Qing nodded deeply.

He had already noticed this when he joined the battlefield.

For example, those three powerful members of the Purple Sun Cloud Clan were significantly weaker than these peak-level Nascent Soul cultivators in their late-stage cultivation, and their strength was similar to that of ordinary late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators in the outside world.

It's unclear whether it's because they haven't fully adapted to the rules of this sealed land.

Of course, it's also possible that the cultivators in the sealed land are generally more powerful. After all, due to the suppression of the rules of heaven and earth, it is more difficult for the beings in this land to advance, so their strength will be superior.

Just then, Chen Fu sighed softly.

"In any case, the number of powerful individuals within these ancient alien races is truly terrifying, far exceeding what our peak forces in the sealed lands can compare to."

After discussing the general trend of the universe for a while longer,

Chen Fu proactively steered the conversation in a new direction: "I've heard that Fellow Daoist Qing has a Star Beast under his command, is that right?"

"Indeed, it possesses the bloodline of the Star Turtle, but its strength is still weak; it has only recently entered the mid-stage of the fourth rank!"

An amusement flashed in Li Qing's eyes.

The fact that this fellow Daoist Chen Fu brought up this topic is clearly for a deeper purpose.

Elder Chen Fu chuckled: "The Star Beast bloodline is ancient and profound, not a bloodline known for its rapid cultivation speed. It emphasizes the importance of accumulating knowledge and experience before unleashing its full potential. Fellow Daoist, it is already quite remarkable that you have been able to cultivate it to the mid-stage of the fourth rank."

"It seems that Fellow Daoist Qing values ​​him very much!"

Then Elder Chen Fu changed the subject: "However, Fellow Daoist Qing need not worry. Our Star Palace is currently developing a ruin. If a suitable opportunity arises, our Star Palace will naturally be willing to help your star beast advance further, as a way of thanking you for your support!"

The powerful being, True Lord Cixing, standing to the side, had a flicker in his eyes before regaining his composure.

He never expected that this elder of the Chen family would take the initiative to reveal the news of that ancient star relic.

However, according to the agreement made back then, the Chen family is now the de facto leader of the entire Star Palace, so he naturally wouldn't say anything. This elder of the Chen family clearly had other ideas.

"Thank you for your help, Elder Chen Fu."
