Chapter 4553: Borrowing an Army to Lead Water
Lu brother, if you were to be a few more minutes late, old Niu I would have become a dead cow!" 。The Eight-legged Demon Bull, Niu Kun, though wounded, still roared with a voice that was incredibly po...“This disobedient son!” The East Sea Dragon King was so angry that he trembled.
"Dragon King, since Ao Zhan's mind is set, your Dragon Clan shouldn't hesitate any further from now on."
Xingnan Tian smiled faintly. He wasn't surprised by Ao Zhan's reaction. Originally, he hadn't held much hope of persuading Ao Zhan when he invited the East Sea Dragon King. The fact that the other party had the courage to defy the Heavenly Court was enough to show his unwavering determination, as hard as iron. It wasn't something that could be easily swayed with a few words. However, being able to pressure the East Sea Dragon King into sending a contingent of dragon soldiers from the East Sea Dragon Palace was not a bad thing either. At least it was a powerful reinforcement.
Why did Jiuyang City fall It was because its foundation had been destroyed and it lacked sufficient reinforcements in a short period of time. Ao Zhan alone wasn't something Xingnan Tian paid much attention to, but the Yunsha soldiers were becoming increasingly powerful, able to hold their ground on the Xuan Yong battlefield. That couldn't be ignored.

Since the opponent came straight to Xingfu City, Xingnantian had to make some preparations. However, the East China Sea Dragon King was quite cunning. He only brought a few attendants and a very small number of celestial immortals to arrive, and there were no dragon clans or a large army of sea monsters under the Dragon Palace as Xingnantian expected. This left Xingnantian somewhat disappointed.
However, since the East Sea Dragon King had already come, it wouldn't be so easy to get him to back down. He would have to pressure the East Sea Dragon King into sending troops to station in Starfall City, to help the city weather any potential crises that lay ahead.
The East Sea Dragon King sighed and retreated to the rear. The current situation had not yet reached a point where he, a Golden Immortal-level powerhouse, needed to intervene. Even Star South Heaven, at the very least, would have to find an opportunity to deal with those listed for combat. Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't act lightly. Especially in this chaotic battle, it was unclear whether Qinling had sent any Golden Immortal-level powerhouses. As the lord of a city, Star South Heaven naturally wouldn't recklessly charge into the fray.
Right now, with a large-scale mobilization of stars to form this monstrous wave, we'll see how the Cloud Sand Army responds.
Boom boom boom! The Yunsha Yongs army, having suffered a setback, pounded their war drums even louder. Then came a series of cracking and booming sounds. A legion of giant sand soldier figures, resembling divine beings, emerged, dragging with thick chains a land army that spanned hundreds, even thousands of miles, directly merging into a temporary dam to block the cascading starlight tide.
Although the Cloud Sand Army was well-trained, the deployment of the vanguard made it impossible for them to fully withdraw. Their response, though swift, was ultimately a bit late.
A torrent of stars cascaded from the gaps between those floating landmasses. Ao Zhan had chosen to reveal himself and speak now, not out of procrastination, but it seemed his efforts were falling short.
"Attack!" The prepared Xingjia warriors charged ashore, crashing into the already disorganized ranks. Most of the Yunsha-made soldier in the front line were struggling in the water current caused by the starfall.
“It’s not a bad thing to retreat when things aren’t looking good. However, Xingfu City isn't a place where anyone can just come and go as they please.” Xingnantian let out a cold smile, waved his hand, and a massive force of celestial armies, already prepared, surged out from the northern mountain pass, charging towards the Yunsha Puppet army across the way with overwhelming momentum.
Even if Xingnan Tian couldn't completely annihilate the enemy's main force in one fell swoop, it was still necessary to inflict a painful lesson on them and alleviate the pressure on Xinguo City's later defenses.
As the main force marched out of the city in pursuit, Xingnan Tian also personally boarded a massive warship and stood at the prow, overlooking the battlefield.
The well-prepared Xingjia Immortal Army harvested the lives of the Yunsha Yongs warriors at a startling speed amidst the torrential Starfall Water Tide. In many cases, they didn't even need to make a move; Yunsha Yongs struck by the Starfall Water Tide were eroded under the immense power of this colossal water system law, their bodies transforming into mud and sand like the previous Sand Golem giants, disappearing in the surging waves.
Ao Zhan's eyes were about to burst, he never expected that a moment of carelessness would be calculated by Xing Nan Tian. The army of Yunsha figurines that had been directly wiped out by the Starfall Water Tide was ultimately limited. If the opponent took advantage of the situation and charged in with their Immortal Army, and really disrupted the army's formation, this time the losses would truly be a serious blow.
The speed at which the Starfall Water Tide came rushing in, or rather, the speed of the celestial army's pursuit from Starfall City, was faster than anyone could have imagined.
For a time, Ao Zhan was also at a loss. However, he soon received a transmission, "Cease the retreat and engage in battle with the celestial army of Xingfu City on the spot. An opportunity will arrive soon."
"City Lord What's the reason" Ao Zhan heard Lu Xiaoteng's voice transmission. Under such a disadvantageous situation, Ao Zhan didn't really have enough countermeasures. In his opinion, decisively leading the army to retreat at this time could still control the losses within a certain range. If they really abandoned the retreat and turned back to join the immortal army in the extermination, the consequences would be unpredictable. Although Ao Zhan had no doubts about Lu Xiaoteng's cultivation level and personal charm, it didn't mean that Lu Xiaoteng could definitely command a large army well.
“The opponent used the Starfall tide to attack the Yunsha army, so I disrupted their formation and gathered more Starfall water tides to attack Xingfucheng. Soon, Xingfucheng will face even greater chaos. Maybe we can take advantage of this opportunity to break through the northern mountain pass of Xingfucheng. There are also a few more star fortresses to be broken. I won't waste your time talking. Just carry out my orders.” Lu Xia Tian was still in the Yexu Lake area, having broken through thirty-three star fortresses in Yexu Lake, leaving only the last three. At this point, Lu Xia Tian could already feel the overwhelming torrent that the entire Yexu Lake area was about to lose control. The remaining three star fortresses had become the last stone blocking the uncontrolled thousands of Starfalls in Yexu Lake.”
If not for Xing Nan Tian mobilizing the Star Shower Water to counter the Cloud Sand Army with a large array, Lu Xiaotian would have also channeled the nearly uncontrollable energy of the Star Shower Lake through the opponent's array and directed it toward Starfall City.
“This Starwater Mirror is indeed mysterious. It can actually show the situation of the great formation on the side of Xingpu City.” Lu Xia Tian stood inside the Star Fortress that had just been broken, a mirror formed by starlight suspended in front of him. Originally, it was used by people on this side to monitor the water currents on the side of Xingpu City, and then, based on the situation there, they made enough adjustments to the water currents here.
If not for this, over time, the entire Starfall City would have been washed away by the surging waters of the Heavenly River. The Starwater Mirror could also be used for communication, but it requires an extremely high level of skill from the caster and causes great damage to the mirror itself. However, this Starwater Mirror cannot be taken away, and Lu Xiaottian is not planning to stay here for long, so he naturally wouldn't consider what would happen to the Starwater Mirror in the future.
"Lord City Master, let's get started." Yun Zhongshu and Yun Zhongshen saw that the vast number of Yunsha puppets were being crushed by the water-based laws contained in the Starfall Water Tide. They couldn't wait to charge into the battlefield and fight the Starfall City immortals to the death.
There are still three star fortresses left that haven't been destroyed, they need to hurry up.
Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!
“Then let’s go.” Lu Xia Tian nodded. The situation on the side of Yunsha Soldiers was indeed very dangerous right now. If they could destroy the Star Fort sooner, the situation could be rewritten earlier.
