Tianhai Fairy Journey

Chapter 1573 Counterattack
Inside the main hall.

Li Qing said calmly, "Since the Hunyuan Sect dared to take the initiative to declare war, they must have already made sufficient preparations for the future."

"No matter how the Grand Elder tries to test us, what's meant to happen will happen."

"It would be better to fight a quick battle and defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, thus completely eliminating the three sects' desire to covet your sect!"

This was also what he was thinking on his way here.

If he could seize this opportunity to help the Star Palace completely resolve the external crisis, then this trip to the Xuan Nan Continent would be a win-win situation for him, saving him the trouble of worrying about the Star Palace in the future.

"Does Fellow Daoist Qing mean to launch a full-scale war directly?"

Elder Chen Fu said in a deep voice.

"Not bad!"

Li Qing nodded: "I will certainly stand guard for your sect and personally lend a hand when necessary."

"After this battle, at the very least, we must ensure that the top forces of all sides will no longer have the courage to plot against your sect before the powerful cultivators at the Grand Master level are no longer able to openly appear!"

"Good! Good!"

Elder Chen Fu nodded excitedly.

Now that this person has made their stance clear, their Star Palace will certainly not back down.

In this way, what was originally a crisis has become an opportunity for the Star Palace.

The Hunyuan Sect's declaration of war gave the Xinggong Sect an excuse to launch a desperate counterattack.

Just as this fellow Daoist Qingxuan said, if everything goes smoothly, after this battle, the Star Palace's position will be as stable as Mount Tai. At least until powerful cultivators at the Great Cultivator level can no longer appear in the world, no one will dare to provoke the Star Palace.

"Our Star Palace is willing to follow Fellow Daoist Qingxuan's arrangements and immediately convene all parties to launch a full-scale counterattack, forcing out the Hunyuan Sect's scheme as soon as possible."

Under Li Qing's impetus.

The cataclysmic event occurring within the Ancient Mysterious Realm began to accelerate suddenly.

Three days later.

The Star Palace officially declared war on the Hunyuan Sect.

Then, with a speed that shocked the entire ancient and vast cultivation world, they launched a full-scale counterattack.

A massive army of cultivators surged forth from every corner of the Star Palace's territory, launching a frenzied attack on the Hunyuan Sect's territory. Their speed was so great that the Hunyuan Sect was thrown into disarray for a time.

Yemu Island

As a key battlefield in this major battle.

Towering pagodas emanated a majestic aura, while endless gray clouds formed an ancient array.

Inside the great formation.

Several figures stood in mid-air, with the leading figures exuding a powerful aura. They were none other than the late-stage Nascent Soul experts from the Hunyuan Sect.

This also reveals the attitude of the Hunyuan Sect.

From the moment they captured Yemu Island, the entire Hunyuan Sect was prepared for a full-scale battle.

"Won't this really drive Hoshiguma crazy?"

Several powerful figures from the Hunyuan Sect looked at each other, all showing some shock.

Looking into the distance, the end of the Spirit Lake was already filled with an endless torrent of dazzling spiritual light, which was the massive army of cultivators from the Star Palace camp.

One of the torrents of starlight took the lead, rushing straight toward Yemu Island.

And deep within that starlight, there were also many figures exuding immense pressure.

"They've only just declared war, and the Star Palace is already acting so recklessly. Are they really going to fight to the death?"

Seeing the Star Palace army approaching menacingly in the distance, several powerful figures from the Hunyuan Sect couldn't help but feel a bit nervous.

Although they were well prepared for the Star Palace's counterattack, they never expected this moment to come so quickly.

It has only been a little over half a month since the declaration of war.

Xinggong had actually ordered all the late-stage Nascent Soul experts in his camp to prepare for a desperate battle.

The key point is that this is just the beginning.

Logically speaking, such a major battle should be a long process of confrontation and strategic maneuvering.

Normally, the ordinary cultivators should fight each other first, then the Nascent Soul cultivators should join the fray, and finally the powerful figures who sit behind the scenes should personally appear to decide the course of the war.

"Report this to the Grand Elder immediately! The people of the Star Palace have gone mad. Even the Grand Elder of the Chen family, who was supposed to be in charge of the rear, and the Grand Elder of Xingyou have shown up."

The leading elder of the Hunyuan Sect immediately reported the latest findings.

"I told you from the beginning, don't push the Star Palace too far!"

One of the powerful figures from the Hunyuan Sect couldn't help but speak up.

The strength of that Star Palace is quite terrifying, especially the Chen family lineage, which is known for its powerful body cultivators and has incomparably strong combat power.

If it really comes down to a fight to the death, none of them can guarantee they'll survive this battle.

"No need for further explanation, this is an order following discussions between the Grand Elder and the Ancestor!"

The elder from the Hunyuan Sect at the head of the group said in a low voice.

Compared to others, he naturally already knew the inside story and was also aware of the sect's plan.

"To prevent the Star Palace from launching a sudden attack, everyone immediately take up positions at the key points of the grand formation, ready to activate it at any time."

at the same time.

Deep within the Star Palace faction's army.

Inside a massive, silver, star-studded spirit ship.

"Give them some time!"

On the silver throne, a young figure in a green robe sat quietly, his expression calm and his face expressionless.

"it is good!"

Elder Chen Fu said in a deep voice, "I will immediately order the troops below to launch an offensive first, to show our attitude."

"Then we'll arrange for a few elders to appear and feign an attack."

"Elders, there's no need to be nervous!"

A silver, winged celestial horse, several meters in size, emerged from the depths of the starship, radiating a vast and profound pure stellar power. As its ancient scales shimmered slightly, it seemed as if endless starlight was contained within them.

It was the clan leader of the Xinghao Tianma clan, who came from the depths of the Star Palace.

"Master, this demon is incredibly powerful!"

The Sky-Splitter perched on Li Qing's shoulder also widened its demonic eyes, staring intently at the newly appeared Star Lord.

"Such an ancient bloodline aura. Could it be the legendary Star Beast lineage?"

"."

However, this time the Sky-Splitter was clearly much more sensible, and all its words were transmitted secretly through its soul.

At that very moment.

The star lord has already taken the initiative to come over.

"With me and Fellow Daoist Qingxuan here, our Star Palace has absolutely no chance of losing this battle!"

"We two naturally believe in the methods of the Star Lord and Fellow Daoist Qingxuan!"

Elder Chen Fu and Elder Xing You bowed and greeted each other.

Despite this, the solemnity in their hearts did not dissipate in the slightest.

The outcome of this battle concerns the very survival of the Star Palace; how could they possibly be completely at ease?

"We two should also head to the front lines and make our presence known, forcing the Hunyuan Sect to quickly gather its forces from all sides."

In a short while.

Inside the enormous starship, only Li Qing and the patriarch of the Starry Sky Horse Clan remained.

"Although this is our first meeting, I have long heard of Fellow Daoist Qingxuan!" "Star Lord, you are too kind!"

Li Qing smiled, rose, and bowed: "I, too, have long admired the Star Lord."

"Fellow Daoist Qingxuan, there's no need to be so polite. You have done a great favor for our Xinghao Tianma clan. If it weren't for the Soul Wood you gave us back then, the clan leader's soul wouldn't have been able to endure for nearly three hundred years!"

In an instant, Li Qing understood the meaning behind his words.

"That one?"

"Indeed, the clan leader has fully entered the cycle of reincarnation!"

After receiving confirmation, a strange light flashed in Li Qing's eyes.

Unexpectedly, the star lord who was at the fourth level of the Great Perfection has completely perished.

Although he had a close relationship with the Star Palace, he was not in a position to easily inquire about such secrets, but today the new Star Lord actually took the initiative to tell the truth.

"Is it really just such a coincidence?"

Judging from the timeline, it hasn't been long since that star lord completely perished, yet the Hunyuan Sect has already declared war on him.

Thinking about this, Li Qing began to feel a little interested.

He was also eager to witness the ultimate scheme of the Hunyuan Sect.

"Did Fellow Daoist Qingxuan's Star Turtle come along with you?"

Li Qing smiled and shook his head: "Tianxing has just entered the peak of the mid-stage of the fourth rank and is currently cultivating in seclusion within the sect. I did not bring it with me on this trip."

"It has already reached the peak of the mid-stage of the fourth tier?"

The Star Lord couldn't help but exclaim, "It really has a good master. We Star Beasts are known for our slow cultivation, but it has managed to reach the peak of the mid-stage of the fourth rank in such a short time. It must have received a lot of good fortune."

"That star tortoise is quite fortunate to have the opportunity to cultivate alongside Fellow Daoist Qingxuan."

"Star Lord, you flatter me. Tianxing's current success is entirely due to your help in awakening its Star Beast bloodline!" Li Qing said with a smile.

At that very moment.

The Star Lord suddenly said deeply, "If Fellow Daoist Qingxuan doesn't mind, it can come to the Star Beast Realm to cultivate for a period of time in the future. Although that world is gradually becoming incomplete, it contains the ancient starlight that is of great help to the Star Beast lineage, and can also continuously purify its own bloodline and enhance its foundation."

Upon hearing this, Li Qing couldn't help but feel surprised.

Unexpectedly, this Star Lord was willing to let the Heavenly Star Turtle enter that small world to cultivate. You should know that even within the Star Palace, only a handful of people can enter that small world.

It should be understood that the Xinghao Tianma lineage and the Xinggong have an equal contractual relationship, and there is no question of enslavement. Even the Xinggong has no right to decide the will of this star lord.

"Isn't this taking away the cultivation resources that belong to the noble lineage?"

"It's alright!"

The Star Lord smiled faintly and said, "Since the Star Palace has now formed an alliance with Fellow Daoist Qingxuan, then Fellow Daoist Qingxuan is naturally an ally of our Xinghao Tianma lineage. A few cultivation resources are not worth mentioning."

In truth, it knew that as that world continued to decline, its hope of forcibly advancing was becoming increasingly slim, and it would most likely have no choice but to continue waiting for the world to be unsealed.

Faced with such a tremendous change in the world, it also had to consider the entire Xinghao Tianma lineage.

The one before us is the absolute chosen one of heaven and earth within this sealed land, born from the dissolution of the seal. His future potential is immeasurable. If we can befriend him, it will naturally be of great importance to the entire Xinghao Tianma lineage.

"Then I will express my gratitude to the Star Lord on behalf of Tianxing!"

Faced with benefits offered to him without his consent, Li Qing naturally had no reason to refuse.

Perhaps the opportunity for the Heavenly Star Turtle to advance to the late stage of the fourth rank will fall on this Star Lord.

"Our Xinghao Tianma lineage also hopes to have more interactions with Fellow Daoist Qingxuan in the future!"

A smile appeared in the Star Lord's eyes.

Although this Fellow Daoist Qingxuan had long been among the strongest below the Great Cultivator, he still valued that Star Turtle highly, which shows the extent of his favoritism.

If we can maintain a relationship with this person through that star turtle, that would be a good strategy.

"Of course, I also hope to have more dealings with nobles."

On the battlefield outside.

Boom! Boom!

Endless spiritual light converged into torrents of offensive power, continuously descending upon the outer array of Yemu Island.

The vast, gray sea of ​​clouds churned and rolled, defusing the relentless onslaught.

And in the core battlefield.

Furthermore, several figures radiating immense power and awe have already stepped down to the scene.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
Two giant purple blades slashed down towards the great formation.

at the same time.

Two gray, circular magical artifacts also shot into the sky from the depths of the formation, actively meeting the attack.

"This Star Palace is absolutely insane! Even the late-stage Nascent Soul experts within their ranks are personally getting involved!"

The late-stage Nascent Soul experts from the Hunyuan Sect camp also had to show themselves one after another.

At that very moment.

call!call!
But all that could be seen was the starlight illuminating the heavens and the earth.

A tall and robust old man descended from the sky.

A vast torrent of stellar power surged down, with endless silver patterns continuously coalescing within it. A phantom image of a nearly hundred-foot-tall stellar giant appeared between heaven and earth.

"The Chen family, the Chen family's body cultivation master!"

In an instant, exclamations of surprise echoed once again from within the great formation.

Even the powerful elders from within the Hunyuan Sect changed their expressions slightly, their eyes filled with apprehension.

The fame of Xinggong is largely attributed to the Chen family lineage.

A late-stage fourth-order body cultivator is extremely rare even in the entire Xuan Nan Continent.

The prosperity of the Star Palace during its heyday was created by the body cultivators of the Chen family lineage.

The next moment, amidst countless shocked gazes.

The phantom of the giant star, over a hundred feet tall, had already stepped through the air, leaving a booming sound in the sky with each step.

"Stop Chen Jiati's cultivation immediately!"

The gaunt old man from the Hunyuan Sect who was overseeing the battlefield immediately gave the order.

He couldn't allow that powerful body cultivator from the Chen family to launch an attack at will.

Whoosh!Whoosh!
In an instant, two powerful elders from the Hunyuan Sect soared into the sky and charged towards the phantom of the hundred-foot-tall star giant.

A person's name, a tree's shadow.

Even the most powerful figures within the Hunyuan Sect dared not face the Star Body cultivator from the Chen family lineage alone.

Boom! Boom! Boom!
The deafening roar erupted once again.

Meanwhile, the battle between the powerful body cultivators of the Chen family and the two powerful figures of the Hunyuan Sect became the absolute focus of the entire battlefield.

"Just the two of you!"

The phantom of a giant star, over a hundred feet tall, roared and slammed its hand down, unleashing a torrent of stellar power that blasted away a massive gray blade that was coming straight at it.

Boom! Boom!
Streams of spiritual light shot down towards the illusory figure of the star giant, but were blocked by the sturdy armor formed from endless silver patterns.

From afar, the powerful body cultivators of the Chen family, both at the late Nascent Soul stage, were fighting two powerful experts from the Hunyuan Sect, holding their own and even appearing more dominant.

The starlight once again converged into a mighty torrent of stellar power.

The phantom of the hundred-foot-tall star giant grabbed it, transforming it into a silver torrent whip, which lashed down once more.
at the same time.

Deep within the great formation of Yemu Island.

Deep within a spatial passage woven with countless silver patterns, figures, each radiating their own immense power, burst forth from the void.

A vast and sharp sword intent instantly enveloped the heavens and earth.
