Outside Firmament Star.
Up to ten thousand warships were approaching.
The great commodore of Stronghold Thirty-One, Daoist Celestial Luo Shui, was holding onto a scroll when her face sank.
The scroll was a piece of intel that her scout had sent.
The Blood Tribe army was approaching!
The other strongholds had also received similar news.
“What’s happening? The Battle of Blood God Mountain was supposed to inflict heavy losses on the Blood Tribe’s civilization. They weren’t supposed to have the resources to wage war for at least a few eras. It has only been a few years. How’s it that their armies are approaching again?”
Luo Shui said with a low voice.
She immediately called for a military meeting.
Several great Heavenly Imperials and Daoist Celestials gathered.
“Oh, the Blood Tribe is coming again. Since I didn’t have the chance to fight them the last time, it looks like this will be my opportunity.”
A cold, murderous intent seeped out from the Sword Daoist’s eyes.
“Oh, merciful Buddha, I do not wish to resort to violence. However, those who desire to ruin my homeland shall meet my wrath!”
An aged monk in saffron-dyed robes muttered.
He was the Buddhist Daoist Celestial, the founder of the Buddhist cultivation technique in Firmament Star.
All the Heavenly Imperials and Daoist Celestials were born and bred in Firmament Star.
As such, they definitely would not sit by and watch while an army was about to attack their homeland. They were dedicated to protecting their planet since dozens of eras ago, and they would stand by their principle dozens of eras later.
“Did you manage to contact the King?” Daoist Celestial Luo Shui asked.
“Not yet.”
The Transcendental Daoist Celestial shook his head.
“The Blood Tribe recently suffered from mass casualties, and not many of their Daoist Celestials survived. I don’t think it’s necessary to trouble the King. Let’s take care of this on our own.”
The Sword Daoist Celestial said.
The rest of the Daoist Celestials agreed as well.
The way they saw it, the battle of Blood God Mountain had cost the Blood Tribe seventeen Daoist Celestials. How many more Daoist Celestials could they possibly have?
After a round of discussion, the cultivators began to establish their defensive formations.
…
“Finally, we’re almost there.”
A few million kilometers away from Firmament Star.
The Blood Tribe warships had arrived in a neat formation.
Staring at the blue-white planet in the distance, the Argent King felt a sense of reignited passion. “This time, we must conquer Firmament Star in one go, take their Heavenly Dao, and use their resources to bring the Blood Origin Star back to its glory.”
The Blood Origin Star had suffered massive losses.
They must recover their strengths as quickly as possible, lest other civilizations discover their weaknesses and invade them.
“We’re finally here? I can feel my body rusting.”
Li Feng stood up.
The sword qi that erupted from his body caused the surrounding planets to shudder in space.
Suddenly, a glint flashed in Li Feng’s eyes.
“I think we have ourselves a welcoming party.”
Several figures appeared in the distance.
The figures were seething with powerful auras. Even the weakest amongst them possessed the cultivation level of a Heavenly Imperial.
They were the cultivators of Firmament Star.
Amongst them were the Sword Daoist Celestial, Daoist Celestial Luo Shui, and others.
They had decided to take the offensive!
The Argent King was shocked to notice that there were several other Daoist Celestials whom he had not seen before.
A Daoist Celestial was one of the most formidable forces in a civilization.
The Blood Origin Star had struggled with finding more Daoist Celestials, especially after the battle on Blood God Mountain. Ever since then, the number of Daoist Celestials became scarce.
Yet, Firmament Star had somehow managed to recruit several more Daoist Celestials. What was going on?
The Argent King was puzzled.
“Blood Tribe, it’s not too late for you to turn back.”
The Transcendental Daoist Celestial snorted.
“Want us to leave? Impossible. This time, you won’t be able to protect Firmament Star anymore. It shall be ours to take.”
The Argent King retorted.
“Skip the nonsense. If it’s a fight you’re looking for, then bring it on. After countless years of slumber, I can finally stretch my muscles.”
Yan Wu leaped forward and discharged a burst of Emperor qi.
The Innate Ferocious Daoist Celestial, who was standing aside, chuckled. “I was badly overpowered by the King the last time. Now, I could really use someone as my punching bag.”
He then unleashed his ferocious qi, summoning the Innate Ferocious Avatar!
The other Daoist Celestials subsequently brandished their weapons as well.
The Argent King frowned and roared, “Attack!”
In an instant.
The Blood Tribe’s warships fired their cannons at their enemies.
Waves of energy beams were launched at the Daoist Celestials.
“Chaos Fireworks!”
Daoist Celestial Luo Shui lifted her hands to tap into her Emperor qi, and a dark sword appeared in her hands. From her as the center, a wave of chaos qi unleashed in all directions and formed a large barrier that shielded her party from the energy beams.
“Singular Qi Chaotic Slash!”
Luo Shui Daoist Celestial roared.
Her dark sword swung across the void, unleashing a chaotic blade ray that was a million meters long. It destroyed one fleet of warships after another!
A series of explosions ensued in the quiet universe.
Daoist Celestial Luo Shui was the first Empress of Firmament Star.
She was also the second host of the Chaos Physique, preceded only by the Chaos Daoist Celestial himself!
Her previously reincarnated body did not possess the Chaos Physique, so she could not unleash her fullest potential. However, now that Luo Shui had gotten her original body back, her powers were stark reminders of how she became the first Empress of Firmament Star.
“Hah, Sister Luo Shui, your sword technique is still as fascinating as always. I can’t lose out to you!” Yan Wu smiled brightly, and suddenly, a halberd appeared in his hand. As he slammed forward with his halberd, an enormous fiery dragon appeared!
The fiery dragon released a blinding glow that shone through the dark universe.
Fleets of warships were devoured by the dragon, and the Blood Tribe members were burned into ashes amidst their wails. Evidently, Yan Wu was not much weaker than Luo Shui.
“Innate Ferocious Avatar!”
The Innate Ferocious Daoist Celestial grnunted.
The enormous avatar soared through the battlefield, unleashing a fury of punches, which summoned surges of ferocious qi that rained over the battlefield like a meteor shower.
Wherever the ferocious qi landed, fabrics of the void tore apart, and countless warships were destroyed.
“Attack!”
A group of Blood Tribe Emperors and Heavenly Imperials charged towards the Firmament Star cultivators.
At that moment, a monk appeared before them.
The monk looked like a frail and feeble elderly, yet he unleashed a sudden burst of aura that terrified everyone.
“Amitabha, may you be reborn into the land of ultimate bliss.”
The Buddhist Daoist Celestial pressed his palms together.
Then, an enormous, golden Buddha Avatar emerged from the dark universe.
The Buddha Avatar lifted his palm, which was the size of a planet, and launched a forward attack.
The void before it imploded!
Just like that, the Blood Tribe Emperors and Heavenly Imperials were reduced into dust.
“D*mn it. Since when did these Daoist Celestials exist in Firmament Star?” The Argent King grimaced.
He could no longer stand by and watch his Blood Tribe armies getting massacred.
With that, the Blood Kings joined the fight.
“Come at me!” The Innate Ferocious Daoist Celestial cackled as his avatar engaged in an intense battle with one of the Blood Kings.
Each Daoist Celestial was focusing on one Blood King.
Boom, boom, boom…
Countless Daoist patterns emerged in space.
The battles between the Daoist Celestial caused a devastating burst of energy to sweep through everything across several million kilometers in radius and shook the nearby planets.
There were still two cultivators on both sides who had yet to attack.
One was the Sword Daoist Celestial.
The other was Li Feng.
Both of them were experts of the Sword Dao. As soon as they met each other’s eyes, sword qi flowed around them, and their terrifying Sword Dao aura locked itself against one another in a tight contest.
“It looks like my trip to the Firmament Star isn’t a waste of time after all. I’m glad to be able to meet an excellent swordsman like you.” Li Feng chuckled and said.
The Sword Daoist gradually drew his Divine Absolute Sword. He had once lent this to Chu Kuangren during the battle at the Blood God Mountain, where it was damaged.
However, after his awakening, the Crimson Sun Daoist Celestial had reinforced the weapon with leftover Purple Metals used to repair the Self Descendant Sword. As such, the Divine Absolute Sword was even more powerful than before..
