The Battle of Purple Moon (Part One)
After the Sixth-Tier Upper-Grade Spirit Vein, the Eight Extremes Star Curtain Formation and the Lesser Celestial Circuit Star Sword Formation, one defensive and one offensive, two major Clan-Guarding Formation were successively revealed before the powerful figures.
From initial fear, to subsequent horror, then numbness, and finally to an adrenaline-fueled excitement.
In a short period of time, the powerful figures of the Purple Moon War Zone experienced an incredibly complex emotional journey.
"Everyone, are there any questions now?" Yang Tianyou asked with a smile.
After exchanging glances, the powerful figures, including Silver-Tailed Sky Cat King and White Cloud Old Ancestor, simultaneously stood up and bowed respectfully, saying, "We will follow the Yang Household's lead in everything!"
"Alright! White Cloud Sect, listen to my command!" Yang Tianyou patted the armrest lightly and stood up.
"The White Cloud Sect is here!" said the White Cloud Old Ancestor respectfully.
"Immediately order all members of the White Cloud Sect to retreat to Purple Moon Commandery and temporarily take refuge in the Secret Realm!"
"This... is the order of the White Cloud Sect!" White Cloud Old Ancestor said through gritted teeth.
Although they were reluctant to abandon their old nest that they had built over tens of thousands of years, the White Cloud Sect's Defense System was simply no match for the surging army of the Nine Phoenix Realms. Retreating to Purple Moon Commandery was the best option!
"Heavenly Separation Palace, Cloudwater Sect, Fire Spirit Palace."
We are here!
"Like the White Cloud Sect, all members of your sect have retreated to Purple Moon Commandery."
"In addition, withdraw the garrison forces Mo Province Realm Gate at the same time, and open the Mo Province Realm Gate," Yang Tianyou ordered again.
"However, there are still many Nine-Phoenix Realm Experts eyeing us within the gap in the Mo Province World Interstice. If we let them escape, then..." Fire Spirit High Person said hesitantly.
"Once the Divine Wind Army Corps arrives, they will definitely open the Large Realm Gates of the nearby states as soon as possible to ensure a continuous flow of reinforcements."
"The Mo Province Realm Gate will eventually fall, so instead of wasting our strength, we should retreat in advance, preserve our strength, and fight them to the death in Purple Moon Commandery!" Yang Tianyou clenched his fist, a cold and sharp glint flashing in his eyes.
"We will obey Brother Great White's orders!" Fire Spirit High Person replied respectfully without saying anything more.
As Yang Tianyou issued a series of orders, the Purple Moon War Zone began to operate at high speed after the brief meeting.
Forces such as White Cloud Sect and Fire Spirit Palace, transported by War Flying Vessels that had been prepared in advance, quickly converged on Purple Moon Commandery.
When the Divine Wind Army Corps arrived with a group of Nine-Phoenix Realm Experts, they were met with several empty continents.
The eagle's cry shook the heavens and the earth; blue-purple lightning crisscrossed the distant horizon like electric snakes; and a gale swept in at an abnormal speed, engulfing tens of thousands of miles in an instant.
Dust storms swept across the land, with countless black and gray dust particles filling the sky and obscuring the blazing sun overhead. In an instant, Purple Moon Commandery was plunged into darkness, devoid of sunlight and moonlight, as if it were about to face utter destruction.
"Ha! What a grand scene!" Yang Tianyou's gaze turned cold, and the opponent's arrogant aura made his killing intent boil.
"Aww!!"
A roar that sounded much like a tiger's roar, but with more majesty and less of a murderous aura, came from afar.
A lifelike Divine Beast, Lu Wu, strolled through the sky.
Behind the Divine Beast Lu Wu, nine tails resembling fox tails swayed back and forth, radiating divine light, as if brewing a powerful attack from its eyes.
"Lu Wu Army..." The Divine Wind Army Commander was startled. Logically speaking, Lu Wu Army should not possess the combat power of the Void Refinement Realm.
"No, their auras are somewhat weak, this is... Military Dao Forbidden Technique!" A realization flashed through the mind of the Divine Wind Army Commander.
The Military Dao Forbidden Technique force High-Rank Cultivators into the legion, and due to the conflict of power, each use of these techniques results in huge losses.
The Nine Phoenix Realm also possesses such Secret Method, but since the Void Refinement Legion has already matured, it's basically just for show!
"Hmph, so be it. We'll wipe out the Yang Household and the Lu Wu Realm in one fell swoop..." the Divine Wind Army Commander murmured to himself.
Although the Divine Wind Army Corps had just suffered heavy losses and its strength was weakened to some extent, it might be at a disadvantage in a confrontation with the Lu Wu Army Corps.
However, there are plenty of other powerful individuals in the Nine Phoenix Realm.
There are sixty or seventy of them who possess Sage Manifestation power. If these strongmen wipe out the Yang Household and then turn around to join forces with the Divine Wind Army Corps to besiege Lu Wu Army, there is a high chance that they will kill the latter here.
"Kill!!"
Above Purple Moon Mountain, the Divine Wind Army Corps and the Lu Wu Army Corps clashed fiercely. The two Void Refinement Forces fought each other, and numerous Spatial Rifts appeared, spreading across the vast sky like a spider web. The Void Turbulence surged and swept, stirring up the boundless Spiritual Qi wildly.
"Destroy the Yang Household!"
A powerful member of the Divine Wind Clan, possessing the combat strength of Sage Manifestation Great Perfection Realm, roared and transformed into the form of a divine eagle, its wingspan reaching three thousand feet, its sharp claws outstretched, Wind-Thunder Power surging fiercely, sweeping across the sky.
"Aww!!"
Accompanied by a fierce tiger's roar, Yang Yusheng led the Purple Moon Army First Legion, transforming into White Tiger Divine Beast and pouncing fiercely. Dense Geng Metal Qi flowed down from the platinum wings, vast and mighty, engulfing the Firmament.
Two pairs of tiger claws reached out and fiercely grabbed at the Divine Wind Clan expert at the Sage Manifestation Great Perfection. With a tearing sound, blue-green blood poured down like a torrential rain.
The eagle cried out again, but this time it carried a clear sense of pain.
"The Purple Moon Army is incredibly powerful. Their combat strength is probably among the top in the Sage Manifestation Great Perfection, right?" another Sage Manifestation from the Divine Wind Clan exclaimed in surprise.
"Let's send out another Sage Manifestation Great Perfection warrior and two Late Sage Manifestation warriors to jointly besiege this legion."
"Good!"
As soon as the words fell, three Divine Wind Clan Sage Manifestation flew out from the ranks and charged towards the First Legion. The four of them combined their strength and finally forced the First Legion into a disadvantageous position.
"According to the plan, intercept some of the Nine-Phoenix Realm Experts, and put the rest into the core area of Purple Moon Mountain!" Yang Tianyou transmitted his voice.
"Yes!" Silver-Tailed Sky Cat King and other powerful figures nodded in unison, and then simultaneously approached their respective opponents.
"Awooo!!" The Wolf Ancestor roared to the sky and pounced fiercely on a Mid Sage Manifestation Realm expert.
Seeing this, the other party sneered, "Early Sage Manifestation cultivator, overestimating himself!"
Having said that, the Wind-Thunder Power coalesced into a blade, which he then unleashed with overwhelming force!
The Wolf Ancestor activated his bloodline, and endless crimson light rose, transforming into a Blood-Colored Crescent Moon that hung behind him.
Blood Moon hung in the sky, casting magnificent rays of light across the heavens, its crimson hue enveloping the firmament. The Divine Wind Clan Sage Manifestation, initially paying little attention.
However, suddenly, the Wolf Ancestor's aura began to surge wildly, directly reaching the Late Sage Manifestation, not far from the Sage Manifestation Great Perfection.
After mobilizing the power of the Blood Moon Secret Realm, the Wolf Ancestor's strength increased dramatically, and the radiance of the Blood Moon became even more formidable. The Divine Wind Clan Sage Manifestation, which was illuminated by the full force of the Blood Moon, immediately felt its soul shake violently, its head throb with pain, and all sorts of hallucinations flooded its mind.
At the same time, streaks of blood began to appear on his body.
The Fleshly Body rapidly withered, and the Essence Qi rose and drifted towards the Blood Moon hanging in the sky.
Tear!!
Space tore open, and a blazing bolt of lightning flew from afar, sweeping across the sky and leaving behind a strange, lingering trail.
This was a Divine Wind Clan with Late Sage Manifestation combat power. Upon seeing his kin in distress, he immediately rushed to their aid, unleashing a full-force attack on the Wolf Clan member's back. If the Wolf Ancestor did not wish to be split in two by the Wind-Thunder Power, he would have to cease his attack.
However, to the bewilderment of this Divine Wind Clan, the crimson wolf demon in front of him, for some reason, showed no intention of giving up its attack. Instead, it pressed its kinsman to the ground with its claws and its sharp, spear-like teeth tore at him frantically.
"Since that's the case, then you might as well die!"
A ruthless glint appeared in the eyes of this Divine Wind Clan Sage Manifestation. He folded his wings, brewing a terrifying blade of light that seemed capable of cleaving the sky in two.
Bite!!
A crisp, metallic clang Dang Kai as a golden Golden Tortoise appeared, hovering behind the Wolf Ancestor. This was the Wolf King Bai Feng's Golden Tortoise Shield, seemingly derived from Baxia, one of the nine sons of the dragon in legend. Its defensive power was extremely formidable; even attacks at the level of Sage Manifestation could hardly leave a mark on it.
Rip! Rip!
The Divine Wind Clan's Sage Manifestation relentlessly attacked with its claws, but aside from spewing out a large number of blazing sparks, it had no effect whatsoever.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Wolf Ancestor went all out, using both claws and teeth, and tore the Divine Wind Clan Sage Manifestation he had pinned down to pieces.
The latter's soul escaped, attempting to transform into a rainbow of light to flee, but was held in place by the Crimson Moonlight falling from the Blood Moon above. With a gentle tug of the moonlight, it tore the soul into pieces.
