A Sexagenary Cycle in the Blink of an Eye (7)

Over the years, with the continuous support from Purple Moon Mountain, the combat power of Divine Sword Island has grown stronger and stronger. The number of Cultivators on the island has exceeded five thousand, with more than one hundred Golden Core Combat Strength and a Dragon Tortoise Dao Soldier guarding it.

The Yang Household Member also invested a lot of resources to upgrade the Spirit Veins on the Island to the Fifth-Tier Low-Grade, and set up two Fifth Tier Formations, one for offense and one for defense, raising the Island's defense level to the Spirit Transformation level.

With a solid base, the Yang Household was able to freely send troops to attack the Leling Archipelago.

Inside the council hall, on the left side, the three commanders of the Purple Moon Army, Yang Yusheng, Yang Xuanli, and Yang Xuangang, sat in their respective seats.

Behind them sat a group of cultivators dressed in identical Battle Armor, Sha Qi; these were all high-ranking members of the Purple Moon Army.

On the right side of the main hall, Old Man Taiwu, Yang Danglong, Wang Shan, Yang Tianxue, and other Yang Household Cultivators took their seats in turn.

Yang Taishan and his two siblings, Lu Qianqian and her sister, and others were also among the crowd. These people, like the Purple Moon Army, were sent by their Lineage to support Divine Sword Island.

At the very front of the main hall, Yang Xuanwu sat in the main seat, with Yang Tiankang and Yang Xuanye on either side.

Regarding the war in the Spirit-Suppressing Sea Region, Yang Tianyou completely delegated authority, allowing Yang Xuanwu to serve as the commander-in-chief and be fully responsible for all matters related to the war.

Yang Tiankang and Yang Xuanye were responsible for assisting him, while the people below were the core force, who had to unconditionally obey Yang Xuanwu's orders.

At this moment, Yang Xuanwu, who had already advanced to the Late Golden Core realm, sat there with an imposing air, exuding an indescribable domineering aura.

"News has come from Sea Abyss Island that the Four Great Powers are preparing to launch a simultaneous attack on the Spirit-Suppressing Sea Region in half a month." Yang Xuanwu scanned the area below, his bright pupils resembling two blazing furnaces, fiery and fierce.

Upon hearing his words, the Yang Household Members below smiled. Yang Xuangang, clad in black Battle Armor, clapped his hands and laughed, "We've waited so long, the war has finally begun! The soldiers of my Purple Moon Army have been eagerly anticipating it!"

The Old Man Taiwu stroked his beard and laughed, "If we can conquer the Spirit-Suppressing Sea Region, my Yang Household will have a solid foundation in the Chaotic Sea, which will be of great benefit to our future development!"

After his two disciples married Yang Xuangang, the Old Man Taiwu devoted himself entirely to the Lineage and made significant contributions over the years.

In order to enhance the combat strength of the Chaotic Sea, the Yang Household specially refined two Realm-Breaking Pills, the "Heavenly Chaos Wondrous Method Pill," to help Old Man Taiwu break through to the Nascent Soul Late Stage. As a result, the old man naturally became even more devoted to the Yang Household and very enthusiastic about expanding the territory.

Seeing the high morale of his people below, Yang Xuanwu couldn't help but smile.

He raised his right hand, pressed it down gently, and after the sounds below subsided, said softly, "Since we're going to war, we need to discuss the previous battle plan again and eliminate as many loopholes and flaws as possible."

Upon hearing this, the other clansmen nodded in agreement. Inside the main hall, the Yang Household Members offered their opinions on optimizing and adjusting the tactics.

Yang Xuanwu carefully extracted these opinions, refined them, and ultimately formulated the final battle plan.

Half a month later, War Flying Vessels rose into the sky Divine Sword Island, with the Purple Moon Boat, now upgraded to Fourth Tier top-grade vessels, serving as the Fleet's Flagship.

On the crimson deck, proud and imposing Purple Moon Army stood tall, their auras mingling as one, vaguely forming a hundred-foot-tall giant tiger lying above the Purple Moon Boat.

The Desolation and domineering roar of the tiger Yunxiao, demonstrating the fearlessness and bravery of this battle-hardened army.

Having experienced continuous wars and won a series of great victories, the Purple Moon Army's morale was so high that even cultivators who were not skilled in Military Dao could feel their strength.

"After decades, the Purple Moon Army has grown many times stronger! They truly are worthy of being the sons of the Yang Household!" Yang Xuanwu praised the Purple Moon Army Soldiers around him without any reservation as he walked along.

Yang Yusheng said with a smile, "It's all thanks to the massive resources allocated by the Lineage; otherwise, how could we have cultivated the Purple Moon Army to this level in just a hundred years?"

As they chatted, they reached the bow of the boat. Yang Xuanwu took a deep breath and then exhaled.

A thunderous Lei Ming echoed, "All troops, advance! Target: Leling Archipelago!"

"Fight! Fight! Fight!" The Purple Moon Army shouted in unison, their voices thunderous, and the billowing Weapon Sha Qi surged into the sky, clearly visible even hundreds of miles away.

The Leling Archipelago, Leling Island.

The one in charge here is a Nascent Soul Great Perfection cultivator from the Flower Butterfly Sect, known as Madam Red Butterfly.

All the Spirit Transformation cultivators of the Flower Butterfly Sect were cornered on Flower Butterfly Island by the powerful figures sent by the Sea Abyss Sect. No one dared to be alone, because being alone would give the Sea Abyss Sect the opportunity to kill them.

Only by relying on the numerous defensive Formations set up on Flower Butterfly Island could these Spirit Transformation cultivators ensure their safety.

The Sacred Land forbids the mass death of Spirit Transformation cultivators, but the forbids it does not say that they cannot die one by one.

Every rule has loopholes. In this game, the Flower Butterfly Sect is clearly at a disadvantage. The weak have no chance to exploit loopholes and can only survive by honestly abiding by the rules.

Inside the white jade Palace in the center of the Island, a seductive woman dressed in red, revealing clothing, with skin as white as snow and Red Butterfly patterns on her neck, was lounging lazily on her throne.

Even when news of the Yang Household's invasion of the Leling Archipelago arrived, Madam Red Butterfly seemed completely unfazed.

It wasn't that she didn't value the Yang Household; quite the opposite, Madam Red Butterfly had thoroughly researched all aspects of the Yang Household and ultimately came to a conclusion—they couldn't be defeated!

This woman is intelligent and has a good understanding of her own limitations.

She understood that the Spirit-Suppressing Sea Region, which was being targeted by the Four Great Powers, would fall sooner or later, and the Flower Butterfly Sect would definitely become a subordinate force of the Sea Abyss Sect.

The sect did not surrender immediately for two reasons: one was their resentment, and the other was their desire to demonstrate their strength.

The strong are respected everywhere, even among the subordinate forces of the Sea Abyss Sect, there are both strong and weak.

Since it's impossible to form Spirit-Suppressing Alliance, the best course of action is to occupy an important position under the Sea Abyss Sect. However, achieving this goal will inevitably require a bloody war.

Only by demonstrating their prowess in war can they gain more influence in the future and avoid being used as cannon fodder by the Sea Abyss Sect in the face of the Two-World War, thus avoiding being sent to an even more brutal battlefield.

The war on the Leling Archipelago is similar. As one of the two Fifth Tier island groups under the Flower Butterfly Sect, the war on the Leling Archipelago naturally attracts the attention of various forces.

Madam Red Butterfly was originally prepared to fight a good battle, defeat her opponent, and show her own style.

However, after learning that her opponent was the Yang Household Divine Sword Island, she lost all hope of winning the war.

The Lu Wu Realm is not closed off, especially for major powers at the county level and above. Information flows extremely quickly. Wherever a powerful force rises, its intelligence personnel will immediately present the relevant information.

The information that the Purple Moon Yang Household defeated Iron Lion Ridge and revealed that at least three of them possessed the combat power of Spirit Transformation naturally came to the attention of Madam Red Butterfly.

As a branch of the Purple Moon Mountain Yang Household, the Yang Household Divine Sword Island had received news of the latter's large-scale reinforcements, so she naturally knew about it.

Faced with the full support of an upstream Commandery-Level Power, how could the Leling Archipelago possibly withstand it alone?

It should be noted that the support from the Flower Butterfly Sect's main branch has been cut off. The Leling Archipelago are practically isolated, if not completely helpless, while the other side has the support of its main base. In addition, the existence of the Eight Desolations Arena is also a major concern for Madam Red Butterfly.

Because she had lost confidence in victory, Madam Red Butterfly calmed down. She now had only one goal: to preserve her strength while doing her best to deal with the Yang Household.

Since we can't win, we should avoid futile resistance as much as possible. As long as we hold out until the war ends and our sect surrenders to the Sea Abyss Sect, the war on the Leling Archipelago will naturally end.

However, if the Yang Household reveals a major flaw during this period and she seizes upon it, Madam Red Butterfly will no longer be so lenient.

Ultimately, she adopted an indifferent attitude because she saw no hope of victory.

However, once Madam Red Butterfly sees any hope of defeating the Yang Household, this woman will cling to it relentlessly.
