While Yan Ning was frantically sweeping through the Yanyue Star Domain, searching for Immortals to kill...
In a stretch of starry sky far away from him.
A large-scale army battle between the Human Clan and the Demon Clan was erupting.
In the pitch-black cosmos, two massive armies were locked in a standoff, terrifying energy fluctuations causing the surrounding space to warp slightly.
On the Human Clan's side.
They were commanded by a Sealed Marquis Immortal, the Thunder Prison Marquis.
There were 32 Immortal Spirits, 5 high-level Immortal Army Masters, and the rest were ordinary Immortals.
5000 Domain Lords, 50,000 Sector Lords, and 500,000 Universe Lords.
The Human Clan army was arranged in a battle formation, with tens of thousands of warships suspended in the void, their energy shields layered upon each other, forming an impenetrable defensive line.
On the other side, the Demon Clan army.
They were commanded by a peak Sealed Marquis, the Blood Fang King, a massive avian-type Demon Clan member over a hundred kilometers long.
48 Immortal Spirits, 8000 Domain Lords, 100,000 Sector Lords.
800,000 Universe Lords.
5 giant biological warships.
The Demon Clan army blotted out the sky, their dense biological warships covering the starry expanse like a swarm of locusts.
The Blood Fang King stood at the very front, his scarlet eyes flickering with a cruel light.
Unlike the Human Clan, the Demon Clan was clearly lagging in technology, but in terms of physique...
The Demon Clan far surpassed the Human Clan.
At the Immortal stage, the larger the Immortal Divine Body, the stronger one's strength, combat power, survivability, endurance, and everything else!
From this perspective, the Human Clan's Immortal combat power was clearly at a disadvantage.
In the mid-to-low-tier combat power, these warships were enough to close the gap.
"Humans, such a weak bloodline, such frail bodies, yet you dare to contend with us noble Demon Clan. How laughable."
He grinned savagely, his voice shaking the battlefield through divine power vibrations.
The Thunder Prison Marquis's expression was grim, but he did not retreat, responding coldly: "Demon Clan, nothing but a pack of uncivilized beasts, and you dare to act arrogant!"
The Blood Fang King laughed heartily: "Beasts? You humans sure have nerve to say that. We Demon Clan are the race that has pushed bloodline evolution to its limit. There's a fundamental difference between us!"
Neither side held the other in any regard; any more words were a waste of breath.
The next second.
"All troops—attack!!"
With the Blood Fang King's command, the Demon Clan army surged forward like a tidal wave, terrifying roars shaking the starry sky!
The Human Clan army immediately formed a defensive formation, the Thunder Prison Marquis bellowing: "Hold the battle formation! Immortal Spirits, follow me to face the enemy!"
"Boom—!"
The two torrents slammed violently into each other, an energy storm sweeping in all directions!
"Boom—!!!"
A terrifying shockwave spread for tens of millions of kilometers!
The Human Clan's warship fleet opened fire simultaneously, tens of thousands of energy beams weaving into a net of destruction, blasting the Demon Clan Sector Lords charging at the front into dust.
However, the Demon Clan's massive bodies and fearless charge still crashed headlong into the Human Clan's defensive line!
"Roar—!"
A Domain Lord-level Giant Rock Beast, over a dozen kilometers in size, roared as it charged into the battle formation, its claws sweeping across, instantly smashing dozens of Human Clan warships into scrap metal!
"Stop it!"
A Human Clan Domain Lord general roared, leading hundreds of Sector Lords to form a battle formation, condensing a thunderous spear that spanned the starry sky, stabbing fiercely into the Giant Rock Beast's head!
"Shii—!"
Blood sprayed, and the Giant Rock Beast fell with a howl, but even more Demon Clan warriors had already surged forward!
At the very center of the battlefield, two terrifying figures had already clashed!
"Human! Die!"
The Blood Fang King's hundred-kilometer-long body coiled through the starry sky, covered in scarlet scales, each scale gleaming with a metallic luster.
He opened his massive maw, spewing a torrent of blood-red energy that corroded cracks into the space it passed through!
"Hmph!"
The Thunder Prison Marquis snorted coldly, his thunderous spear sweeping sharply as a brilliant barrier of lightning unfolded instantly!
"Thunder Punishment!"
"Boom!"
The crimson torrent collided with the barrier of lightning, energy exploding, shattering space for tens of thousands of kilometers in every direction!
Thunder Prison Marquis's figure recoiled, his expression shifting slightly: "Such formidable power!"
The two clashed repeatedly in the void.
As enfeoffed immortals, they possessed undying bodies; unless their divine bodies were annihilated, they could not suffer real damage, and even severe wounds would heal rapidly.
In a battle between two immortals, when equipment and secret techniques were roughly equal, the contest came down to divine power within their divine bodies!
Blood Fang King sneered: "A mere human dares to match my demon clan in divine body? Seeking death!"
Thunder Prison Marquis's lightning spear swung continuously, each strike carrying world-destroying might, tearing countless tiny spatial fissures into the starry sky around him.
His figure flickered constantly through the void, pressing the attack relentlessly.
Yet the massive demon body before him displayed astonishing agility; Blood Fang King's tail, covered in scarlet scale armor, swept with every motion, precisely intercepting Thunder Prison Marquis's strikes.
The shockwaves from their collisions pulverized all meteorites within tens of thousands of kilometers into dust.
"Damn it!"
Thunder Prison Marquis cursed inwardly, fine beads of sweat already forming on his brow.
He could feel his divine power draining far faster than anticipated, while Blood Fang King across from him remained completely at ease.
This was the demon clan's innate advantage—their massive divine bodies contained far greater reserves of divine power than human immortals.
Worse still, every scale on Blood Fang King's body rivaled G-grade metal; ordinary attacks could barely inflict real damage.
Behind them, the battlefield between their respective clans was equally brutal.
Though the human battle formations were exquisite, under the demon clan's fearless charges, they had already begun to retreat step by step.
Thunder Prison Marquis's peripheral vision swept across the battlefield, spotting three more human formations breached, and his heart sank.
"I must find a way!"
Gritting his teeth, Thunder Prison Marquis continued to spar with Blood Fang King while rapidly sending a distress signal through the virtual universe.
"This is Thunder Prison Marquis of No. 36 Barracks Base, coordinates 362.589, encountering demon clan main force. Enemy has a peak enfeoffed demon leading them. Requesting support from nearby allies!"
After sending the message, Thunder Prison Marquis felt slightly calmer. But bitterness soon followed—in this vast star region, reinforcements that could arrive in time were likely few and far between.
"Human, you're distracted!"
Blood Fang King suddenly sneered, his massive body accelerating abruptly, his tail lashing toward Thunder Prison Marquis's chest.
"Boom!"
Thunder Prison Marquis blocked hastily, his entire form sent flying tens of thousands of kilometers, visible cracks spreading across his chest armor.
Suppressing the sharp pain, he quickly stabilized himself, having already made a decision in his heart.
"All domain lords, prepare to withdraw the troops!"
He gave the order in the legion channel, his voice heavy.
"If no reinforcements arrive within ten minutes, immediately execute the retreat plan!"
There was no other choice—he had underestimated this demon clan enfeoffed's strength.
If they kept fighting without reinforcements, this battle was doomed to defeat!
He did not want to add to the casualties either.
Yan Ning stood amidst a patch of shattered starry sky, holding the mangled remains of a Mechanical Clan immortal in his hand, faint arcs of electricity still flickering across its metal shell.
He casually tossed the corpse into his world ring, a satisfied smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
"The thirty-seventh."
He glanced down at the records on his smart optical computer, one step closer to his goal of ten thousand immortals.
