The Divine Martial Stars

In the starry sky, a pale silver ripple, which flowed like water, suddenly appeared without warning.

It spread out in all directions, as though a glowing curtain was slowly unfolding.

“Eh?” Young Master Wei, who was standing on the deck of the Sword of Freedom, had a glint of light flash in his eyes, and then the corners of his mouth slowly arched.

Dumbo, the interstellar dog sitting beside his feet, suddenly looked up and let out a deep roar from his throat.
A silent and brutal aura instantly permeated the air.

Shan Xuan’er, who was happily stroking Dumbo, was alarmed.
Her face paled, and she immediately turned around and ran away, crying.

Shan Yunxiu rushed over from the side and held Shan Xuan’er in her arms.

Dao Lan stepped forward and shielded Shan Yunxiu.
In his palm, the imperceptible light of a certain Taoist magic art flashed but then disappeared.

Shan Tian rushed out of the command cabin and looked in shock at the thin silver light curtain that was spreading in all directions.
In the end, the curtain formed a cocoon, completely enveloping the space within a radius of thousands of miles.
The Sword of Freedom, the High Mountain, and the other flying ships had all been completely wrapped in it.

“Is this a tactical deployment? A space tactical deployment?”

Shan Tian observed in shock while comforting his daughter.

He had been exploring the universe for many years, but this was the first time that he had seen a space tactic deployment unfolding in front of him.

It took a ton of resources and powerful cultivation to set up such a tactical deployment.
Even a master in the General Realm could not make it without effort.

So, what kind of force on earth could do this?

For a time, the cultivators and experts on the remaining nine flying ships were sort of petrified.

“What in the world is going on?”

Soon, the silver tactical deployment composed of swirling light was completely established.
The strange beams of Taoist figures crawled out like chains and wandered in the silver light.
The Taoist Power started to circulate and completely covered the area within thousands of miles, blocking out the surrounding Yin Qi.
As for the Yin Qi that had been wrapped in the tactical deployment, as soon as it met the Taoist Power produced by the tactical deployment, it instantly disappeared without a trace as if snow met hot water.

A familiar feeling stole over.

Within the scope of the tactical deployment, the law of heaven and earth changed and formed a world of its own, putting everyone under the impression that they had returned to the land on their planet in an instant.

“Be on guard!”

“Start the tactical deployment! Prepare to battle!”

“Watch out, all of you, gather your energy.”

On the flying ships in the distance, the high-level officials of the major sects and the masters brought here by Young Master Wei were yelling at the top of their voices.
Although they were far away, their voices were extremely clear.

It was not until this moment that Shan Tian realized that within the range of the silver tactical deployment, not only had the law of heaven and earth been restored, but even the vacuum had been filled with air and so voices could travel about.

“Look, what’s that?” a sailor suddenly pointed at the front.

Shan Tian and the others looked up in that direction.

Dozens of white flying ships broke through the fog and passed through the silver ripples of the tactical deployment, as if they had come out of the ripples of the void.
They were neither too fast nor too slow, just unhurriedly approaching.

On the main mast of each white flying ship hung a bright red flag that was fluttering in the wind.
On the red flag, there was a yellow dragon-shaped totem.
As the flag fluttered, the yellow dragon bared its fangs and waved its claws.
It looked so lively as if it was about to jump out of the flag and soar to the sky.
There was a kind of solemn and grand aura flowing out of the flag, which was extremely eye-catching.

Shan Tian and the other sailors on the Sword of Freedom had never seen this kind of flying ship, nor had they seen the flag patterned with the yellow divine dragon before.

“What kind of force could they be?”

Shan Tian held his daughter in his arms.

He initially planned to take advantage of the ever-changing Yin Qi and the killing intent in the area of the Ghost Rally Star to kill and bury Young Master Wei and the other powerful cultivators of the major sects here.
Even if he did not manage to take down Young Master Wei and the others, at least he could considerably slash their strength.
Then, when they met Li Mu on the Cliff of the Living, with Li Mu’s mighty combat capability, he might be able to defeat Young Master Wei.
Even if Li Mu failed to do that, Shan Tian would find a way to help Li Mu get rid of Childe Wei and the others and escape by drawing on his knowledge of the terrain and volatile route.

It was very risky to do so.

But Shan Tian knew that he had to do this so as to live up to Li Mu’s expectations.

This was the best he could do in helping Li Mu.

The crash of the flying ship of the Heavenly Deployment Sect was actually part of Shan Tian’s plan.

Shan Tian was very familiar with the way with the drifting chunks of the Yin Qi on the route, so his grasp on timing was extremely precise.
Originally, even if they did not need to narrow the distance between the flying ships down to 100 meters, all the flying ships could still safely go through that path.
But Shan Tian dictated the speed of moving forward.
He knew that the decision to narrow the safe distance down to 100 meters would inevitably be complied on the surface but opposed in private by the major sects in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region.
As long as any of those flying ships did not keep up with the rest, the last flying ship of the fleet, which was the one of the Heavenly Deployment Sect, would inevitably be destroyed by the chucks of Yin Qi that had already closed in.

As expected, the Wind Sword Party had become the “main culprit”.

Sadly, this kind of incident only happened once.
After that, there were several times Shan Tian attempted to continue with his plan.
But every time, he sensed that Dumbo had turned his head to look at him.
So, he missed several opportunities.
Then, before he could carry out his plan, such a sudden scene occurred out of the blue.

“No… They’re our enemy, not a friend,” Shan Yunxiu said.

The white flying ships with fluttering red flags patterned with a yellow dragon was approaching slowly with a menacing aura.
They were definitely not a friend.

At this moment, Shan Tian felt that he might have been involved in the battle between some superpowers outside the Brilliance Immortal Star Region.

“Haha, you’re just a bunch of insects hiding in the darkness.
How dare you brazenly block my way?”

Young Master Wei reached out to hold the side of the ship and looked out at the menacing fleet in the distance.
There was a sneer in his eyes.
Apparently, he was not scared.

He waved his hand and sent a series of orders.

The eight flying ships behind the Sword of Freedom sailed forward from both sides, with four ships sides on each side.
They flanked the Sword of Freedom, so the ranks looked like an inverted “V”.
This was their battle formation.

A voice came from the white flying ship at the center of the fleet on the opposite side.

“Wei Ximin, you’ve kept me waiting!”

It was vaguely visible that on the main white flying ship, a figure covered in a black cloak surrounded by silver-armored soldiers was looking in their direction.
His voice was as sharp as a broadsword, hard-edged like a broadsword being unsheathed.

It was not until this moment that Shan Tian found out that Young Master Wei’s full name was Wei Ximin.

But he had never heard of that name before.

With a disparaging smile, Young Master Wei said, “You’re the remaining evil elements of the Dark Yellow Army, the last battle division of the sinners.
Hehe, that time in the Ziwei Star Zone, you fled like disowned dogs.
You quivered every time you heard my name.
Today, you dared to come to me and get in my way, which really took me by surprise.”

“Countless brothers of my army have died in your hands.
Your hands are stained with blood.
Wei Ximin, you are a butcher.
Today, I will offer your head as a sacrifice to console the souls of those brothers who have died in your hands.”

From the sound of his voice, the figure who was covered in a black cloak seemed to be burning with wrath.

“Haha, a group of disowned dogs actually have the guts to set up an ambush here.
This must be very hard for you.” Wei Ximin was not flustered at all.
He continued, “I once vowed to kill all the sinners in the universe and restore peace in the world.
The evil dregs of sinners like you should long be hung on the scaffold on the main star.
And your bodies should be dried in the wind, and your souls should be ripped up.”

“If there were somebody here who should be hung to death, it could only be you, the butcher.” The black-cloaked figure sneered.
Then, waving his hand, he ordered, “Kill.”

On the flying ships of the two parties, the main cannons roared.

The battle was on since this moment.

Every flying ship had a protective cover.
With the covers activated, the firing of the main cannons of the two parties could not cause too much damage for the time being.

Shan Tian shrewdly discovered that the opponent’s bombardment was only aimed at the flying ships of the major sects in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region as well as the three flying ships under Wei Ximin’s command.
As for the flying ships of the Shan family, they had not been bombarded at all as if the cannon had filtered them out.

After several rounds of the cannon firing, the sound of the bombardment gradually subsided.

In the tactic deployment, the law of heaven and earth still functioned normally.

On the silver flying ships, countless streaks of silver light leaped up and pouncing in this direction, which looked like a meteor shower.

The close combat was about to begin.

Wei Ximin stood at the bow of the ship with a calm expression.

He did not even need to give orders.
Because from the flying ships on his left and right, the cultivators and masters of the major sects in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region had already leaped into the air to fight against the enemies.

Blood blossomed in the void.

Death instantly descended upon the space covered by the large tactic deployment.

When the cultivators launched a frontal attack like a well-trained army, the cruelty of the battle far exceeded that of the war between ordinary armies.

Even masters in the Soldier Realm could die at any second, let alone masters in the Mortal Realm.

Because those in the Soldier Realm were also soldiers.

On the ruthless battlefield, soldiers were the most basic unit sent to charge the enemy line.
They were also the ones who could die at any moment and in the most tragic way.

Only those who were generals could be the master of their own destiny.

This was part of the reason why the cultivation system in the universe had divided cultivators into worms, mortals, soldiers, generals, and kings.

This was the result accumulated from the countless wars and battles since ancient times.

It was also the first time that Shan Tian had seen such a large-scale war.

The major sects in the Brilliance Immortal Star Region, such as the Heavenly Devil Sect, could already be regarded as the moguls of this star region.
In the eyes of the Shan family, an army those sects had built up was already an extremely powerful force that could not be defeated and possessed inconceivable combat capability.
However, when the army started to fight against the mysterious Dark Yellow Army, they did not hold on for long before they were quickly vanquished.
The Dark Yellow Army was clearly predominant in this battle.

The eyes of the Shan family’s cultivators widened in astonishment.

“It’s amazing.”

The soldiers of this mysterious Dark Yellow Army were really formidable.

In less than half an hour, the members of the major sects, including the Heavenly Devil Sect, had either thrown away everything in headlong flight or died or been heavily injured.
By contrast, only a few dozens of the armored soldiers of the Dark Yellow Army had died in the battle.
Regarding the abilities to change formations, advance, retreat, move around, attack, defend, cooperate, cover for others, take orders, charge forward, and so on, the silver-armored soldiers were many times brilliant than the army of the major sects.

Shan Tian didn’t know much about military armies and wars.
Still, he could see that the Dark Yellow Army was like an army of well-trained and experienced elites.
In the face of the Dark Yellow Army, the members of the major sects could not even be qualified to be skirmishers.

They were not in the same echelon at all.

“Kill!”

“Kill! Kill! Kill! Kill!”

There came earth-shaking bawls.

The silver-armored soldiers formed dozens of battle formations in the air.
They were neither hasty nor sluggish.
With the momentum of a collapsing mountain or an avalanche, they continuously pressed in on the Sword of Freedom.

The smell of blood and killing intent swept over.

Shan Tian and the others felt suffocated at intervals.

The power of this kind of military battle formation was not something a single cultivator could stand up to.
