"Good!"

Everyone nodded and rushed into the battlefield beneath their feet.

With the addition of several Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm and the presence of two Pure Yang Spirit Treasure, the outcome of the upcoming battle was naturally a foregone conclusion.

The Devil Race quickly fell into defeat, and the Human Race army launched a continuous counterattack, pursuing and killing them for three days and three nights before finally annihilating the Devil Race army.

After this battle, the Devil Race army within the Vermilion Bird Star Palace Archipelago was almost completely wiped out, with only one Half-Step Primordial Spirit realm cultivator leading a small group of Devil Cultivator managing to escape in time.

After a quick cleanup of the battlefield, everyone held an impromptu debriefing meeting on Zhen Water Island.

Inside the main hall, Profound Void Daoist glanced at Chen Nianzhi and said directly, "The reason we were able to achieve such a great victory in this battle is entirely due to Fellow Daoist Chen's plan and actions."

"It can be said that the greatest credit for this battle belongs to Fellow Daoist Chen."

"Fellow Daoist, you flatter me." Chen Nianzhi waved his hand and said with a smile, "Without Brother Ding Hai and Senior Hao Ran's Pure Yang Spirit Treasure, and without Brother Xuan Xu's Treasure Talisman, this battle would not have yielded such results."

Everyone nodded upon hearing this, and a smile appeared on their faces.

The True Lord Haoran smiled, then sighed and said, "Although this battle was a great victory, the casualties were also extremely heavy. Alas."

Upon hearing this, Chen Nianzhi felt a slight pang in her heart.

This was the most massive battle he had ever experienced. Although the group won the war, they also paid a heavy price in the day and night of fierce fighting.

Although the specific statistics are not yet fully available, it is estimated that no less than 20% of the cultivators died in battle, and almost all of the surviving cultivators were injured, with very few remaining unharmed.

Thinking of this, Chen Nianzhi said, "Fortunately, the reserves of healing pills are relatively sufficient. I have already ordered the army to rest and recover from their injuries as soon as possible."

Everyone nodded, and then True Lord Haoran said, "Not long ago, news came from the Azure Dragon Starry Sky Islands that they were attacked by the Clan Master and two of their array cores have been breached."

"What should we do now? Should we send troops to support the Azure Dragon Star Palace Archipelago?"

Upon hearing this, everyone else turned to look at Chen Nianzhi. After this battle, they had developed a high degree of trust in Chen Nianzhi's strategic command and naturally wanted to hear Chen Nianzhi opinions.

Seeing this, Chen Nianzhi pondered for a moment and said, "According to current intelligence, the Azure Dragon Star Palace Archipelago are facing no fewer enemies than we are."

"We are all exhausted after the great battle, and the Spiritual Qi of our Treasure Ship is far from sufficient. Even if we go to reinforce the Azure Dragon Star Palace Archipelago now, it will probably be difficult to change the course of the battle."

"Moreover, the main force of the Devil Race army in the Black Tortoise Domain has probably already ended the war. They are very close to the Azure Dragon Star Palace Archipelago Azure Dragon Star Palace Archipelago and will definitely join forces with them."

"If we go now, we might not only fail to save them, but we'll also get ourselves killed."

Hearing him say that, everyone present looked at each other in bewilderment.

Chen Nianzhi's guess was indeed correct. After the Black Tortoise Star Palace Archipelago breached the numerous immortal clans in the Far-Northern Icefields, they would definitely attack the remaining Vermilion Bird Star Palace and Azure Dragon Star Palace.

Because once these two star palaces are destroyed, the remaining Lu Jiuyuan and the White Tiger Star Palace Archipelago will definitely be unable to withstand the attack of the four Primordial Spirit of the Devil Race.

Moreover, without the three Star Palace Archipelago as a barrier, the Human Race army of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World in the White Tiger Star Palace Archipelago will surely be thrown into chaos, and a rout is very likely to occur.

The people of the Vermilion Bird Archipelago are powerful, having just defeated the Devil Race group under the command of Jialuo Devil Lord. The Clan Master of the White Tiger Star Palace Archipelago will certainly not risk attacking them easily.

If things go as expected, they will definitely attack the Azure Dragon Star Palace Archipelago, defeat the Human Race army in the Azure Dragon Starry Sky, and then deal with their Vermilion Bird Starry Sky Islands.

After thoroughly understanding the situation, everyone's expression changed slightly. Azure Jade Fairy couldn't help but ask, "If we don't rescue our fellow Daoists from the Azure Dragon Star Palace, what should we do?"

Chen Nianzhi stared at the map before her, remaining silent for a long time before circling around the location of the White Tiger Star Palace.

Then he took a deep breath and said with a firm gaze, "While the Devil Race forces are attacking the Azure Dragon Star Palace Archipelago, we will send troops to the White Tiger Region."

"This..."

Everyone's expressions changed drastically, Flying Feather Pavilion couldn't help but exclaim in shock, "You're going to besiege the Demonic Path's Primordial Spirit!"

Everyone present could no longer remain seated; they all stood up, their faces filled with disbelief.

However, Chen Nianzhi remained unmoved. He simply looked at the map and said calmly, "The White Tiger Region only has four newly Devil Cultivator Primordial Spirit, and not a single Devil Race Treasure Ship or fleet."

"We can combine the forces of the Southern Wilderness Cultivation World, totaling nearly six hundred Nascent Soul Cultivator, with an army of hundreds of millions of cultivators, to assist Nine Abyss Daojun in besieging those four Devil Race Primordial Spirit."

Everyone fell silent upon hearing this, shocked by Chen Nianzhi's audacious idea.

What kind of existence is the Primordial Spirit Realm? Such supreme beings can be called overlords throughout the world, and there is almost no possibility of them being ganged up on and beaten to death by low-level cultivators.

This is a gap that cannot be bridged by sheer numbers, because even if there are hundreds of millions of cultivators, they can only form an array to protect themselves when facing Primordial Spirit cultivator, and they have no right to surround and kill them.

However, mobilizing six hundred Nascent Soul and three hundred Tier 5 Treasure Ship to besiege Primordial Spirit is something that has never happened in history.

Seeing that no one spoke, Chen Nianzhi said, "Although the primordial spirits of demonic cultivators are primordial spirit demons, they are all newly promoted primordial spirit demonic cultivators in the last thousand years."

"With Senior Lu Jiuyuan and the three Star Spirit — White Tiger, Azure Dragon, Vermilion Bird —we have nothing to fear from them."

"If we join in, perhaps we can create an opportunity for Senior Lu Jiuyuan to kill one or two Nascent Soul demon cultivators."

At this point, Chen Nianzhi took a deep breath and then calmly said, "This is also our last chance. Once the Devil Race breaches the Azure Dragon and Vermilion Bird Star Palaces, there will be no chance of turning the tide."

"This..."

After a long silence, it was finally True Lord Haoran who spoke up, "Nianzhi's analysis is not without reason. The Devil Race's military strength is simply too great. We cannot possibly defend the Vermilion Bird Star Palace."

"Only by killing one or two Nascent Primordial Spirit Devil Race can we possibly win this battle."

The others were also somewhat persuaded. The Sea-Calming Daoist said, "If we risk our lives to fight, we might be able to restrain one of the Outer Realm Demons."

"Rather than watching the situation deteriorate, it's better to take a gamble."

The strongest figures present Sea-Calming Daoist and True Lord Haoran, made the decision, and the others who were still wavering gritted their teeth and agreed to Chen Nianzhi's battle plan.

Seeing this, Chen Nianzhi said, "In that case, let's rest for seven days and take advantage of this time to recover before setting out for the White Tiger Islands."
