Chapter 2375

Like water droplets falling on a calm lake surface, creating ripples.

The intelligence of the Netherworld Star Domain Legion was immediately known to the Celestial Dynasty General Staff, and in an instant, as if awakened, the scattered Celestial Dynasty Dao兵 clusters wandering through the starry void began to converge on this coordinate.

Celestial Dynasty warships Xing Zhou began to approach here, and the speed of information exchange between them reached a peak.

"What is this?"

Kong Hai Zhun Di, commander-in-chief of the Netherworld Star Domain Legion, held his breath and gazed upon the colossal flesh-and-blood monster before him, vast as a middle-thousand world.

Kong Hai Zhun Di is a cultivator of the Seventh Heaven of Zhun Di with a scholarly aura, originating from the Yu Yu Yu Xianmen, possessing exceptional tactical cultivation and profound experience, having served in the military for over two million years.

Military commanders originating from the Yu Yu Yu Xianmen are actually not few, and those holding high positions are extremely numerous; the reason lies in the Yu Yu Yu Xianmen's extreme specialization in military formations, their outstanding abilities, and furthermore, Yu Yu Yu Xianmen cultivators generally represent political reliability in the Dao Ting system, thus regarded as cultivators who would stand shoulder-to-shoulder with the Human Emperor even if the world rebelled—politically extremely reliable cultivators.

With ability and political reliability combined, Yu Yu Yu Xianmen talents find it difficult not to develop in both military and political circles.

The monster before him completely exceeded Kong Hai Zhun Di's experience; he could only rely on instinct to sense a frenzied, chaotic, evil palpitation, filled with the unknown.

The unknown is extremely terrifying on the Dao path.

"Full army, retreat."

"Await further orders from the central command."

Kong Hai Zhun Di hesitated not, immediately issuing the command.

Om!

The Celestial Dynasty warship Xing Zhou violently retreated at a speed greater than before, surrounding space faintly distorting; in an instant, it consumed vast energy to enter a superluminal critical leap state, fleeing frenziedly as if gone mad.

Such behavior is blameless in the Celestial Dynasty and even encouraged.

To overwhelm the few with the many, to rely on strength to bully the weak, to swarm and attack—if one can win, fight; if not, flee—this has always been the Yu Yu Yu Xianmen's military founding ideology; the Human Emperor, influenced by this from childhood, led the Dao Ting army to adopt the same combat style.

The sole exception is when superiors issue a charge order.

At such times, one must fight to the death without retreat; retreaters are subject to military law.

Simultaneously, the spirit-energy fluctuations and rule fluctuations of the Flesh-and-Blood Mother Nest World were transmitted to the Dao Ting central command, immediately drawing the direct gaze of the Dao Ting central will, possibly even including the Human Emperor's gaze; a computational power far exceeding that of ten billion cultivators of the Netherworld Star Domain Legion was bestowed upon this army.

More detailed analytical intelligence flooded into the minds of the Netherworld Star Domain Legion officers.

"————Enemy traces discovered, all personnel of the Netherworld Star Domain Legion awarded second-class merit!"

"————Unknown flesh-and-blood world discovered; according to characteristics and naming conventions, the Dao Ting Academy of Sciences shall name it the Flesh-and-Blood Mother Nest World; preliminary assessment indicates it possesses the ability to draw power from the void heaven and earth, still influencing the ascension of the Wu Jin Kong Kong, a top-tier longevity Daoist technological product for the myriad emperors————"

"————After drawing the heaven-earth origin, byproducts generate monsters, strength formidable————"

Lines of information rapidly appeared in the command hub of the Celestial Dynasty warship Xing Zhou; when the enemy sees a star domain legion, it is never merely a star domain legion, but rather the gaze of an entire terrifying Celestial Dynasty monster.

"————Danger!"

"————Alarm! Alarm! Alarm! Please retreat immediately! Retreat immediately!"

Mad red light flashed, urgent alarm sounds echoed throughout the warship, the ship spirit frenziedly urged, and the faces of all officers of the Netherworld Star Domain Legion drastically changed.

They did not even ask for the cause before immediately taking measures.

Such an alarm signifies that the legion has encountered an opponent far surpassing itself, with no chance of victory, executing the highest-level retreat order.

"Go!"

"Immediately burn all reserve energy of the warship! Cannon barrage, block all enemies!"

"Kill! Kill back————"

Kong Hai Zhun Di and the officers roared madly.

Boom!

Rumble rumble!

The star domain legion's warship cannons howled, spewing beams that destroyed rule-space, illuminating an entire expanse of starry void, turning the dark starry void bright as daytime.

In this flashing radiance, surrounding space shattered, like layer upon layer of curtains being drawn aside.

Behind the curtains, terrifying monsters stood motionless, stacked eyeballs occasionally gurgling as they turned, appearing eerie and terrifying.

These monsters, covered in flesh, tentacles, and eyeballs, had somehow already spread throughout the starry void!

At this moment, lifting one's gaze, the entire heaven and earth were densely packed with flesh-and-blood monsters!

"When?!"

"Ambush!"

Kong Hai Zhun Di's heart sank: "This must be an Emperor-level causal concealment; otherwise, I could not have walked into this trap so utterly unaware————"

Rumble!

The Netherworld Star Domain Legion's warship cannons rained down like rain, striking these flesh-and-blood monsters; in an instant, countless monsters were shattered into pieces, blown apart into blood mist, and a vast area was instantly cleared.

"Hiss————"

Many flesh-and-blood monsters displayed abnormalities, seemingly trembling.

These flesh-and-blood monsters clearly possessed indestructibility, blood-drop rebirth, soul transfer, and other terrifying abilities, sufficient to inflict devastating blows upon the vast majority of sects in the Wu Jin Kong Kong, capable of instantly turning a great thousand world into a ghostly den, plunging it into an indescribable hell.

But before the cannons of the Tai Shang Da Ri Xian Chao, these flesh-and-blood monsters simply died cleanly and swiftly.

Indestructibility, blood-drop rebirth, soul seizure—utterly useless.

Under the bombardment of countless cannons and railguns, the currently blocking flesh-and-blood monsters simply died en masse, unable to be blocked before the Celestial Dynasty great army.

If numbers were equal, these monsters would already have been slaughtered to the last!

But here, the enemy had prepared this trap for who knows how long.

Roar!

Accompanied by roar after roar, in the starry void appeared countless warships like blood-soaked tower-vessels, their entangled tendrils like countless vines, with front ends growing blood basins of various shapes; accompanying the roars, these blood basins spat out beams of极致凝練, 极致污穢 blood-red killing light that struck the Celestial Dynasty Xing Zhou warships, causing their shields to tremble uncontrollably.

Furthermore, numerous spider-like monsters bearing an aura akin to supreme being spat out blood nets, sealing space and forcibly dragging out the Netherworld Star Domain Legion forces that had entered superluminal leap state.

In the distance, still more giants with tendrils bearing Zhun Di aura slowly advanced, each step trembling the starry void.

In an instant, the Netherworld Star Domain Legion had already fallen into desperation.

At this moment, Kong Hai Zhun Di instead fell into calm, coldly saying: "No need to flee; construct formations on the spot to await allied reinforcements, or inflict sufficient casualties upon the enemy before all dying in battle."

"Yes!"

The entire army of cultivators responded solemnly.

In the starry sky, countless monsters roared, the ship cannons wailed, sword cultivators pierced and slaughtered with their swords, and law cultivators stood firm like a steel Great Wall, resisting the strongest enemies, still stubbornly resisting despite facing flesh-and-blood monsters dozens of times their own strength.

These cultivators held their position for over a month, unable to await reinforcements, and the entire army was annihilated.
