Chapter 884: Great War

illing to come here. Even the invading foreign cultivators selectively ignored this place, after all, Star Lake had no value worth fighting for. Although the place was vast, it had no defensible point...Compared to the naval battles erupting above, the cultivation world of Watching the Moon was not to be outdone. With cultivators at the Foundation Establishment stage, the Golden Core stage, and even Qi Refining cultivators on the ground, they were bound to suffer losses.

The cultivators of the Wishing Moon Cultivation Realm single-handedly resisted the Star Constellations, while those of Nanhuang and Tianqiong, two major cultivation realms, joined forces for two hundred years. After all, their number was far inferior to that of the three major cultivation realms combined.

If it weren't for the advantage of indigenous combat, coupled with the abundant reserves of various factions, and the fact that the three major cultivation worlds came from afar, their supply of spirit creatures could not compare to the convenience and speed of the Yueyue Cultivation World, the Yueyue Cultivation World would have long since collapsed.

Even so, for the past two hundred years, the cultivation world has mostly adopted a defensive stance. After all, manpower is limited, and defense is already stretched thin. Let alone launching an offensive. While they can hold out initially in battle, prolonged fighting inevitably results in heavy casualties, which would leave even the Yuan Ying ancestors anxious.

Especially the middle line, led by Gujianzong, along with Lingxiaogong, Yu Xinggong, Wan Shouzong, and several other small sects' cultivators, will fight against the main force of Zhan Yuemeng. It is hard work for Wan Wei.

Heaven and earth trembled with a surge of magical energy, spirit cannons blazing, raining down fire and blood, blotting out the sun and moon.

The cultivation world has recently experienced countless calamities over the past few millennia, with this one being the worst.

"Crane-Year Dao Friend, when will your disciple arrive These little brats below can't hold on any longer." Gujianzong's other great cultivator, Mad Wind Sword Scimitar South, had a face like a date, a waist like a water barrel, and wore a dark purple cloak. When he walked, the wind whistled around him, and the ground cracked under his hurried steps.

"It's almost time, it's almost time. Lu Xiaotian may be bold, but he had no choice. Although he had captured two flying warships earlier, his manpower was limited and he couldn't fully utilize their combat power. It wasn't until later, after capturing a large number of prisoners behind the Zhan Yue Alliance and seizing three more warships, that he could unleash the full power of these warships."

At this point, Chen He Nian couldn't help but wipe the cold sweat from his brow. This time, the Moon Viewing Cultivation World was considered an all-or-nothing bet. It's understandable that they were eager for quick results, but this was the only opportunity in two hundred years.

The martial power of the ancient sword sect was unrivaled in the Wan Yue Cultivation World. In this calamity, three great cultivators appeared at once, demonstrating their profound foundation. If it weren't for the fact that the number of great cultivators outnumbered those of the Zhan Yue Alliance, suppressing them from acting rashly, the Yuan Ying old monsters of the Zhan Yue Alliance might not have been so well-behaved now.

The pressure from the ancient Sword Sect was a bit much for Chen He Nian and Chen He Yu, the two brothers. This matter originated from Ling Xiao Palace, so if things went wrong, Ling Xiao Palace would be the first to suffer the consequences.

"Alright, alright, junior brother, when will you ever curb your temper That Lu Xia Tian kid is bold, but his actions are outlandish and always hit the mark. If we really followed our previous plan, based on how those old geezers from Zhan Yue Alliance operate, we might not even gain much advantage. We could very well end up losing this unexpected force led by Lu Xia Tian."

Wen Changyun waved his hand, gesturing for Xiaotengnan to sit down so he wouldn't keep bobbing around in front of him and making him uneasy.

“Isn’t this just watching anxiously” Xiao Tiannan let out a mouthful of turbid air, his face clouded with worry as he looked at the almost palpable blood energy in the sky above the battlefield. His expression was grim, for this was a battle concerning the Dao lineage of the ancient Jianzong in the Moon Viewing Cultivation Realm. Although dozens or hundreds of disciples dying wouldn't faze him, this grand battle had seen far too many casualties.

Though Xiao Nantian had a hot temper, he wouldn't lose his composure because of the deaths of a few disciples. Right now, the situation on the front lines had even the veteran Nascent Soul cultivators worried. They felt helpless despite possessing profound mystical powers.

In the central region of Tianjian Mountain, where thousands of peaks rise like swords, the usual scene of breathtaking grandeur, with birds and beasts vying for attention, has been replaced by desolation. Many mountain peaks have been cleaved in half, and countless spiritual trees have either been felled to create various magical artifacts or destroyed in the battles between the two sides.

A beam of light formed above their heads by the spiritual cannons struck the enemy. Dozens of warships on both sides, moving back and forth, sometimes arranged in a long snake formation or a wedge formation, trying to maximize the firepower advantage of their ships.

Spirit cannons are a direct means of destroying the enemy, but the supply of spirit stones is finite. The most important thing is how to make the most rational use of spirit stones and use the most advantageous formation for attack. When facing an enemy cultivator's fleet, how to best defend with formations and minimize damage is also crucial. These are highly sophisticated techniques for both sides, and only those proficient in battle formations can command a fleet.

Though the fleets of both sides were composed of individual warships, they now acted as a cohesive whole, like two behemoths locked in aerial combat. They sought every opportunity to strike their opponent with a fatal blow.

And on the ground, atop many flattened mountain peak platforms, hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivators were often seen controlling massive crossbows crafted from large spiritual trees. Dozens of demon python tendons, refined through secret techniques, were woven into the crossbow strings.

The Leihuo Wood composite armor-piercing bolt, forged from the gold-ranked spirit ore known for its shield-breaking prowess, was a formidable weapon that commanded respect from the airborne warships. Any enemy vessel daring to approach would be met with a devastating strike. Though powerful, this giant crossbow was cumbersome to maneuver; even with hundreds of Foundation Establishment cultivators operating it, the process remained extremely complex.

But at this time, dozens of heavy crossbows were set up all over the battlefield. Even flying warships, whether they were the Feitian or Feiyan type, dared not get too close. If their altitude was too high, it would still be a huge threat to Foundation Establishment cultivators. However, they couldn't inflict enough damage on Golden Core cultivators. To deal with Foundation Establishment cultivators using spirit cannons, at this time, regardless of whether it was the Moon Viewing Alliance or the War Moon Alliance, their warships were all fighting head-on with each other. Who had the time and effort to use a butcher knife to kill a chicken

This is a simple text snippet.

Even if some Foundation Establishment cultivators were killed, the true deciding factor in the battle would be the Golden Core cultivators. Of course, Foundation Establishment cultivators couldn't be said to be completely useless. If one side's Foundation Establishment cultivators were eliminated, the other side's giant crossbows and some slightly smaller magic weapons could still pose a certain threat to Golden Core cultivators.

An ant can kill an elephant if it bites enough. Therefore, once a battle breaks out, it's perfectly normal for cultivators of several realms to fight from the sky to the ground.

These require a large number of manpower to control and can threaten the existence of flying warships. They often appear on the front lines of battle and are rarely found behind the War Moon Alliance, nor do they have much effect. Therefore, Lu Xiaoxian rushed all the way over and did not encounter too much resistance.

Whoosh whoosh....

A disciple with a handsome face and radiant spirit, he was Yuan Hao, the most prominent cultivator among the Jindan cultivators of the Gujian Sect. Two flying swords hovered above his head, an uncommon pair of Shuangsheng Dan yuan magical artifacts. Yuan Hao possessed extraordinary aptitude, born with the Fiery Sun Sword Body.
