Divining Heavenly Secrets, Backlash

Chen Nianzhi shook his head and said, "I observe that after the destruction of the Black Tortoise Star Palace, their morale has completely collapsed. If they are drawn into battle in this state, they will surely suffer a crushing defeat once they encounter setbacks."

"Only a series of decisive victories can restore their morale in this situation. You need to understand that whether they have the will to fight will have a significant impact on the outcome of the battle."

Jiang Linglong nodded, finally understanding Chen Nianzhi's thoughts.

Those who have no will to fight will likely prioritize self-preservation once they are caught in a fierce battle. They will all flee for their lives first, and no one will care about the collapse of their army or the greater good of Human Race.

Even if a few people fight for Human Race, they will likely only meet a heroic end.

As for those who fled, once the situation deteriorated, their escape would only hasten their death, and it's unlikely that many would actually survive.

Therefore, only by concentrating superior forces to defeat the opponent and continuously achieving victories can we defeat powerful enemies with overwhelming fighting spirit.

Thinking of this, Jiang Linglong asked worriedly, "Aren't you afraid of being attacked by the hidden Clan Master?"

"If we really encounter the Clan Master..."

Chen Nianzhi took a deep breath, then said with a cold gaze, "Then even if it costs Senior Qingyuan his strength, we must defeat them in one fell swoop."

"That's the only way."

Jiang Linglong sighed, knowing in her heart that this was the only option.

However, the Azure Abyss Sword is a Pure Yang Spirit Treasure that is renowned throughout the world. Once it is unleashed at full power, it is enough to slay demons and monsters.

Unfortunately, the sword's accumulated power can only be used at full strength three times. Once its power is completely depleted, it will take many years to recover. Therefore, Chen Nianzhi dares not use it lightly unless absolutely necessary.

Suppressing her thoughts, Jiang Linglong said again, "Why don't we use the Stargazing Tower to deduce the outcome of this battle?"

"Alright."

Chen Nianzhi nodded, agreeing that they should speculate based on the Stargazing Tower.

The two summoned the Stargazing Tower. Chen Nianzhi sat upright on the Astral Dao Enlightenment Platform and activated the Great Evolution Star Compass with the Great Divine Ability ' Great Evolution Heavenly Art '.

Nine dazzling stars swirled up on the star chart, intertwining with the North Dipper Seven Stars in the sky, and Dao Xuan constellations constantly transformed and took shape.

In that instant, Chen Nianzhi vaguely glimpsed a magical scene: a translucent glass ' Nine Heavens Treasure Mirror ' and a dark black Jade Slip facing each other.

"You little brat, how dare you interfere?"

Suddenly, a strange laugh rang out, and the dark black Jade Slip slip struck horizontally with unparalleled power, aiming to kill Chen Nianzhi.

At that very moment, another voice rang out. "Standing shoulder to shoulder with me, how dare you be distracted?"

"Boom--"

In an instant, the precious mirror emitted a dazzling light, colliding with the Jade Slip slip in a stunning display, blasting Chen Nianzhi out of the illusion.

In that very last instant, Chen Nianzhi glimpsed a sliver of celestial mystery: a once-brilliant star in the east had dimmed and was about to fall.

"My husband."

Jiang Linglong's expression changed drastically. She quickly supported Chen Nianzhi, her face full of worry.

Chen Nianzhi's pupils dilated suddenly, and she came to her senses, her expression still showing some fear.

Seeing his expression, Jiang Linglong felt a sudden tremor in her heart and couldn't help but ask, "What exactly did you see? Is there some great danger in this battle?"

"No."

Chen Nianzhi shook her head, took a deep breath, and told Jiang Linglong what she had seen and heard.

Jiang Linglong's heart skipped a beat before she spoke, "It was my oversight. How could a battle of this level not involve any clashes of the Heavenly Secrets?"

"That precious mirror must be the Heaven-Gazing Mirror. It's locked in a stalemate with the Outer Realm Demons's supreme treasure, completely disrupting the heavenly secrets."

Chen Nianzhi nodded, and said with some lingering fear, "If it weren't for the protection of the Heaven-Gazing Mirror, I'm afraid even if I had come back alive, I would have been severely injured."

After calming down a bit, Chen Nianzhi spoke again, saying, "Just now, that Demonic Path treasure attacked me, but it also revealed a trace of heavenly secrets."

"Observing the changes in the stars, the Azure Dragon in the east is dim and without light; it is likely not far from its fall."

"The Azure Dragon of the East... could it be the Azure Dragon Star Palace Archipelago?" Jiang Linglong's expression changed drastically, and she quickly stood up and said, "We must notify them immediately so they can prepare accordingly."

"That's the only way." Chen Nianzhi shook his head, then said decisively, "Since the Azure Dragon Star Palace is facing so many crises, then the Vermilion Bird Star Palace, where we are, must be facing less pressure."

"Our immediate priority is to eliminate the formidable enemies of the Vermilion Bird Star Palace. Once we have gathered our forces together, we can then make other plans."

"..."

Chen Nianzhi rested for only one day, and the next morning she gathered everyone and headed towards Zhang Moon-Deer Region.

Several days later, not far from Zhang Moon-Deer Star-Mansion Spirit Island, more than a dozen Tier 5 Treasure Ship gathered together, their whereabouts concealed by a cloud of magical Law Treasure.

All the Nascent Soul True Lord stared solemnly at the void ahead, seemingly waiting for something.

Soon, a cultivator flew over and said from a distance, "The great battle has begun and is now raging."

Upon hearing this, everyone's hearts stirred, and they couldn't help but glance at Chen Nianzhi.

Long before they set out, they had already made an agreement with Nine Rivers Daoist and other fellow Daoists, in which the people in Zhang Moon-Deer Region would take the initiative to attack and hold back the Devil Race army, and then Chen Nianzhi and others would attack the Devil Race from behind.

Now that Nine Rivers Daoist has made his move as planned, it's time for everyone to join forces.

Noticing the expressions on everyone's faces, Chen Nianzhi drew her longsword and said resolutely, "Fellow Daoists, when the nest is overturned, no egg remains unbroken. I hope we can do our utmost to seize a glimmer of hope for our Human Race."

"Kill! Kill! Kill!"

As soon as Chen Nianzhi finished speaking, she took the lead and charged out with the Heavenly Separation Twin Swords.

In an instant, dozens of True Lord charged out, and one Treasure Ship after another roared out.

Tens of thousands of miles away, the Human Race alliance in the Zhang Moon-Deer Region is engaged in a bloody battle with demons. Twenty Human Race Treasure Ship are locked in a fierce battle with the demons, and the situation is at a stalemate.

As Chen Nianzhi had expected, the demons here were indeed bluffing. They only had a dozen or so Treasure Ship, and the total number of Nascent Soul Devil Race was only about twenty.

With the Profound Void Daoist, a Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm cultivator, Zhang Moon-Deer Region, their strength was far greater than that of these Devil Race, not to mention the Human Race's reinforcements from Star-Sun Island, including Chen Nianzhi.

Suddenly attacked from both sides, the Devil Race army was terrified and began to collapse in a rout. In just half an hour, several Nascent Soul Devil Race were killed.

The group pursued and killed most of Nascent Soul Devil Race for a full day and night, finally freeing Extended Net Moon Deer from the siege of the Star Constellation Array Eye.
