Chapter 973

Yinli Star

When the remote warning system’s detectors sensed the gathering of unknown cosmic energy, an alarm was triggered, and the information was instantly sent to Yinli Star.

Immediately, one thousand three hundred eighty loudspeakers on Yinli Star blared, and the entire Yinli Star could hear it clearly.

"Taoist Friend Di"

"Taoist Friend Di, the alarm has been raised, the Buddhist sect is launching a massive attack."

"Has the Buddhist sect gone crazy? They dare to attack first."

Taoist Friend Di also appeared from his cave. He could have transcended to a higher realm, but to seek revenge, he suppressed his own power. After the battle at the Taibai Star, they suffered heavy losses, which made him feel ashamed. Without revenge, he couldn’t overcome his inner turmoil.

"Taoist Friend Di, I heard that the most famous Bodhisattva in the Tianyuan Star Domain is called Hui Ming. He used to be a gambler, and the last time he swallowed the Heavenly Court planet in the Tianyuan Star Domain, it was entirely his idea, with no clever tricks, just charging straight ahead."

"A gambler? Ha, more like a reckless fool."

"Taoist Friend Di…"

"Since they want to play like this, then let’s play with them. Send a message to the rear, telling everyone on each planet to come immediately and gather the immortals. Let’s have a big battle here."

Taoist Friend Di said coldly, "If Hui Ming dares to gamble, I can too. It’s just gambling everything I have, so I’m all in."

Everyone was silent; this was already the best way to respond. In a world-class battle, schemes may not help much; what matters most is strength.

After about ten minutes, a Space Fleet appeared in the outer space of Yinli Star. It was a Space Battleship from the Buddhist sect, and when counted carefully, there were over ten thousand warships.

"Seniors, the technology of the Buddhist sect has exceeded our control. We do not know their level, but five hundred years have passed, and they must be stronger than before. Their numbers exceed ten thousand warships, and according to the previous formation of Blue Star, it’s equivalent to one hundred Space Fleets. We only have twenty fleets, with a risk ratio of five to one. Please quickly recall the other ten fleets."

In the Space Battleship of Heavenly Court, a cultivator reported to everyone. This person was a senior officer from Blue Star, hired by Tianbei Star Domain for one million spirit stones a year, serving as the highest commander of the united fleet of Tianbei Star Domain.

As early as ten thousand six hundred years of the Blue Star Xia calendar, Tianbei Star Domain united to order over three thousand five hundred warships of various types from Blue Star, taking eighty years for all to be delivered, responsible for the space safety of the entire Tianbei Star Domain.

"I have already ordered the recall. General Ji, you handle it for now; I fully authorize you. We will not interfere in the space battle."

"Okay, thank you, senior. I will take action now."

Ji Tianming said. He was one of the oldest commanders of Blue Star and came to Tianbei Star Domain to be the marshal of the Space Battleships, thinking he would just earn some salary, but now it seemed he would have to fight for his life again.

The battle between the Space Battleships was a long-range war. The two fleets, separated by millions of kilometers, launched their attacks at the same time. Both sides sent out electronic ships for electronic warfare, trying to suppress each other. If their electronic warfare succeeded, the opponent would become blind and deaf, and in the dark of space, they would take hits passively.

"Bang"

The electronic spaceships of both sides got close, and the spaceship from the Buddha side exploded. It was Ji Tianming who made the spaceship carry the Droplet Robot.

"No honor in battle"

On the Buddha side, the commander was furious and was jumping with rage.

"Spread out the whole army, increase the distance, and activate anti-jamming mode"

Immediately, the Buddha commander ordered the warships to spread out over a distance of hundreds of thousands of kilometers, as the enemy’s ten or so electronic spaceships couldn’t suppress them; electronic spaceships also have a range.

The electronic spaceships swooped around the battlefield, flying very high and moving irregularly at a very fast speed because the Buddha’s Space Battleships were chasing them.

"Commander Ji, we have adjusted our position, and the force field is set up."

"Take action"

Ji Tianming heard the report from his commander, and then the main fleet opened fire.

In front, hundreds of warships stood still; they were like a shield, their power forming a frightening force field, creating a massive shield.

The Buddhist Space Battleship also joined the fight, with both sides unleashing their firepower. Besides electromagnetic cannons, Spiritual Cannons, lasers, and beams, there were many auxiliary weapons, such as electromagnetic pulse bombs and artificial star bombs.

The artificial star bomb is an old type of bomb, but it is very effective. When it explodes, it is like a small sun appearing; the bright light can blind cultivators below the Soul Changing level and can destroy the warship’s cameras.

The dark space became bright; standing on Yinli Star, on the dark side, one could see countless stars and moons lighting up the pitch-black land.

"It’s really scary."

The watching cultivators were all astonished. The battle between Space Battleships was even more thrilling than the Space Battleships slaughtering cultivators. No cultivator dared to claim they could remain intact under such heavy fire.

········

"Yinli Star has started fighting."

When Lin Jiang received this news, the other celestial beings also got the message.

"Did we wait for nothing?"

"It’s not our concern. Tianyuan Star Domain took the initiative, and that’s another army’s matter. We are the southern side, while they are the northern side."

A celestial being said that the Heavenly Court’s forces are divided into two: the army attacking Yinfang Star is considered the northern legion, and they are the southern one.

"Indeed, it’s not our concern. Let’s just watch."

Lin Jiang said, then opened the holographic projection, showing the battle at Yinli Star.

"Is this a space battle?"

"It’s different from what we see in sci-fi movies."

"Didn’t they say there were planet-destroying ships? The kind that can destroy a planet with one shot. Why aren’t they using them?"

"That’s nonsense, that’s a sci-fi movie. Do you understand movies?"

Dozens of immortals watched the battle scene that looked like a sci-fi movie, discussing it excitedly. They didn’t expect that a few movie enthusiasts would emerge. No wonder Blue Star’s sci-fi movies have been popping up like mushrooms after the rain in recent years; it must be those old fellows investing in them.

"The Droplet Robot is a great thing, but sadly, the Tianbei United Fleet only has twenty of them. Lin Jiang, you are being stingy."

"Dear taoist friend, you cannot blame me. The Droplet Robot is very hard to make. There are seven or eight types of metals that are very rare, with an annual production of less than a hundred pounds. Do you believe it?"

Lin Jiang said, and he was not lying. Many high-end robots require some special metals, which are in short supply. Even though billions of tons of ore are mined each year, they only yield less than a hundred pounds after being refined to a certain purity.

"Lin Jiang, tell me, do you have any weapons in Blue Star’s technology that can deal with immortals?"

Li Canghai watched the battle and secretly communicated with Lin Jiang; he didn’t dare to speak loudly.

"No, there’s nothing that powerful. Immortals are so hard to kill, they can’t be easily worn down."

"Then how do you explain that two immortals have already died at your hands? Xia Qingshan was killed while you were still cultivators."

"Taoist Friend Li, you remembered wrong. At that time, Cao Ying and the others had already become immortals."

"Hehe, a newly transformed immortal cannot defeat Xia Qingshan; Xia Qingshan has absorbed a lot of dao auras."

"It’s three against one, and they were fighting for their lives. You have no idea how long they took to recover afterward."

"Hehe."

Li Canghai let out a cold laugh. Even if they fought with everything, they wouldn’t stand a chance; Xia Qingshan is not a young immortal who just became one.

"Taoist Friend Li, do not doubt us. We are honest people, and not all immortals are the same; we are quite powerful."

"I don’t care if you have it or not, but I advise you not to bring it out. Immortals are different from one another. Not to mention the Heavenly Emperor, even an Immortal Lord would struggle. An Immortal Lord at least has absorbed ten thousand dao auras; their strength is unfathomable. At the immortal level, their power has transformed several times."

"Is it really that amazing?"

"What do you think? Hundreds of immortals submit to the Heavenly Emperor because he can truly fight. We wouldn’t stand a chance against him if we were all tied together."

"Taoist Friend Li, when will you become an Immortal Lord?"

"Not for a long time. Without being close to the Heavenly Emperor, there is no opportunity."

"I understand."

Lin Jiang nodded. In the Heavenly Court, Tiannan and Tianbei Star Domain are both small followers, very minor ones.

Lin Jiang had heard from Li Canghai that the Heavenly Emperor started from the Tianxing Star Domain. The Tianxing Star Domain is the oldest Star Domain in the Heavenly Court, and several Immortal Lords have been with the Heavenly Emperor for two to three million years, having absorbed no less than ten thousand dao auras.

Of course, Lin Jiang also knew that Li Canghai’s strength was nearing that of an Immortal Lord, and the dao auras he had absorbed were certainly not few. What Cao Ying said about being close to catching up with Li Canghai’s strength was just bragging.

"Taoist Friend Lin, your people from Blue Star are really fierce! The commander of the Tianbei fleet actually used himself as bait."

After a while, someone told Lin Jiang that they, as outsiders, had already seen through Ji Tianming’s strategy. He was using the flagship as bait to trick the Buddhists. This bait was very tempting, and the Buddhists would likely fall for it.

"Sigh."

Lin Jiang sighed and then looked at Liang Long.

Ji Tianming is Liang Long’s student, not a disciple, but a student who learned conducting from Liang Long. He is also an old veteran who has done many great things for Blue Star.

Because of this, Ji Tianming learned Liang Long’s battle tactics. Liang Long really likes to use bait in his strategies. The enemy finds it very hard to resist this bait because if they truly defeat Ji Tianming, the United Fleet will be left without a leader.

"Don’t worry, we will win."

Liang Long met Lin Jiang’s gaze and said softly.

The United Fleet’s Space Battleship is half old and half new. Ji Tianming just used old warships, even his flagship is an old one. Now he can use his flagship as bait to trick the enemy into a trap, which will surely allow them to destroy many enemy warships, making the advantage of the new warships even greater.
