Chapter 2131: Coordinated Operations of Law Cultivators, Sword Cultivators, and the Immortal Sect Fleet

The citizen fleet under the command of Supreme Commander Mieri arrived near the Black Heaven Great Thousand World at the scheduled time.

Everything he saw along the way weighed heavily on his heart.

Every Minor Thousand World and Zhong Senior Qian Shi Gao Jie they passed along the way had already been occupied by the Starry Sky Cockroach clan; vast swarms of Starry Sky Cockroaches had seeped into the worlds, destroying and breeding madly, able to devour every living being in a Minor Thousand World within just a few years; their numbers swelled exponentially, and trillions was no exaggeration.

Among these explosively multiplying Starry Sky Cockroaches, there were even many with extraordinary talent.

This cluster of Great Thousand Worlds had suffered a devastating blow!

Countless cultivators and citizens among them perished beneath the Starry Sky Cockroaches' massive jaws; no one knew how many cockroach egg sacs lay hidden in the earth, lurking, waiting for the day they would hatch.

A once-vibrant cluster of Great Thousand Worlds was reduced to scorched earth within just a few years.

This was merely an extremely tiny corner of the battlefield where two True Immortals were fighting to the death; both sides fought desperately here for life and death, for survival, with no path of retreat.

"Greetings, Daoist Mieri!"

"Greetings, Daoist Zhongyun!"

"Greetings, Daoist Dong Xue Sha…"

Supreme Commander Mieri joined forces with the troops who had arrived in accordance with the Great Dream Sword Realm war system orders, and exchanged greetings with each Supreme Commander.

Among these reinforcements, Supreme Commander Mieri led the citizen fleet, Supreme Commanders like Zhongyun led the Law Cultivator Dao Soldier troops, and Supreme Commanders like Dong Xue Sha led the Sword Cultivator troops; in total, eighteen Supreme Commanders and eighteen Sirius Star Domain armies.

These troops were all Star Domain-level forces, second only to Endless Starry Sky-level forces such as the Seven Kill Dao Soldiers, the Supreme Grand Sun Dao Soldiers, and the Ten Great Citizen Fleets; they were the main forces of the Supreme Grand Sun Dao Court.

According to scores in merit, politics, and tactical command, Supreme Commander Zhongyun was appointed the supreme commander of this mixed force, with the mission of recapturing the Black Heaven Great Thousand World.

Similar military exercises had appeared many times in the past.

Every Supreme Commander had to undergo training in the Great Dream Sword Realm and undertake compulsory military service duties.

Supreme Commander Zhongyun came from Taiyi Qingmu Xianzong; he was a Law Cultivator adept at legion warfare and had a long record of achievements in past Great Dream Sword Realm military exercises.

"The Law Cultivator Dao Soldier troops will attack from the front!"

"The Blood Cloud Sword Cultivator troops on the flanks—find the right moment to strike at the enemy's weak points…"

"Daoist Mieri, please have your forces immediately launch a probing saturation bombardment against the Starry Sky Cockroach grand formation of the Black Heaven Great Thousand World, and provide fire support in the battles thereafter…"

Supreme Commander Zhongyun took over command and ordered in a deep voice.

This was a steady and resolute Supreme Commander; there was nothing clever about it—just employing the classic tactics of the Supreme Grand Sun Dao Court, attacking head-on, advancing step by step to retake the Black Heaven Great Thousand World.

"Yes!"

"Yes, Commander…"

Supreme Commander Mieri and many other officers immediately saluted.

In wartime, one cannot distinguish between citizen and non-citizen!

Over the past few years, large numbers of citizens had already been executed for refusing to carry out military orders; no leniency would be shown.

In fact, the Supreme Grand Sun Sword Immortal's preferential treatment of citizens was reflected in policy and strategy, not in breaking the rules.

Citizens who broke the rules would likewise be severely punished; everything citizens obtained was earned through their own efforts and contributions; the Sword Immortal merely provided policy support, not direct handouts.

If Supreme Commander Mieri defied orders at this moment, he had no doubt it would bring death.

Although for an old immortal sect soldier, defying orders on the battlefield was absolutely impossible—it would be a supreme disgrace, and even death would not bring peace.

"Attack!"

Supreme Commander Zhongyun said indifferently.

Boom!

Rumble rumble!

The aura of the Law-Destroying Great Dao was stirred; a tremendous pressure arose, and the countless ship cannons of the citizen fleet under Supreme Commander Mieri fired in unison; Law-Destroying destruction cannons covered the sky and sea like clouds, blanketing the Black Heaven Great Thousand World, which had now turned pitch-black and seemed empty.

When the countless Law-Destroying ship cannons arrived, Starry Sky Cockroaches—each like a dark gemstone—emerged within the seemingly empty Great Thousand World's clouds.

They were as if dead, linked head to tail, tightly arranged, forming formation runes that encompassed heaven and earth in all four directions; a Great Thousand World grand formation was constructed out of thin air.

It was full of the aesthetic beauty of immortal dao biotech formations!

Many Supreme Grand Sun Dao Court cultivators who loved research glanced sideways for a moment, some utterly fascinated.

Rumble!

The fleet's volley of cannon fire struck this insect-armor grand formation, causing some disturbance, but did not complete the destruction mission.

"These cockroach insect-armor grand formations can ignore and partially nullify energy attacks; physical attacks seem to be the same—very mysterious. This is the evolutionary mystery of the Creator, and the Dao Court Academy of Sciences has yet to find a way to break it…"

Supreme Commander Mieri's face grew slightly ugly.

This reason was precisely why the war situation in this region had fallen into a disadvantage!

The Starry Sky Cockroach clan seemed to possess a certain restraining factor against immortal sect fleets, carrying a flavor of all things mutually generating and restraining each other.

If this situation continued, the Starry Sky Cockroach clan would likely receive strong support from the True Dragon Fortune Immortal Dynasty, welcome a great racial opportunity, and bring even greater battlefield pressure.

"It's our turn."

Supreme Commander Zhongyun's face was expressionless.

Hum!

He personally commanded over several billion Dao Soldiers; countless twilight scenes manifested, layer upon layer of indestructible clouds arose, shrouding the Black Heaven Great Thousand World, crashing into the formation with the weight of layered mountains, slaughtering countless Starry Sky Cockroaches; human cultivators died from time to time, and Starry Sky Cockroach corpses fell like raindrops.

The deaths of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of cultivators were like mere weeds on today's battlefield!

Clang!

Supreme Commander Dong Xue Sha followed closely on both flanks; under his command, several hundred million Sword Cultivator Dao Soldiers slashed out gorgeous sword lights, forming countless sword qi, further widening the breach in the Black Heaven insect-armor grand formation that Supreme Commander Zhongyun had smashed open, advancing steadily.

Boom!

Rumble rumble!

As the Law Cultivator and Sword Cultivator Dao Soldiers advanced step by step, the immortal sect fleet's cannon fire constantly fell around both Dao Soldier forces, blasting open breach after breach for them, disrupting the deployment of the area before them, disturbing the formation nodes of the Starry Sky Cockroach army, providing strong and effective long-range cannon fire support for the Law Cultivator and Sword Cultivator armies.

This was the classic basic tactic the Supreme Grand Sun Dao Path had explored over hundreds of thousands of years!

Simple, effective!

Over all these many years, every army had undergone countless tempering and coordination, countless drills, countless corrections within the Great Dream Sword World war system.

It could be said that these regular armies of the Dao Court were among the most resplendent jewels of the Supreme Solar Immortal Dao industrial system — the foundational martial force upon which a faction's survival rested.

At this moment, this systematized form of warfare revealed its edge.

Squeak squeak…

Squeak squeak squeak…

In the Black Heaven Great Thousand World, countless starry-sky cockroaches squeaked in panicked cries.

They stared in terror as the formations beside them collapsed one after another. Though the number of experts they possessed, their strength, and the size of the armies under their command all far exceeded the enemy's, under this simple, three-axe-like assault they were routed into total disarray.

All the experience gained from countless bloody battles in the past was utterly useless at this moment!
