Ao Qi, the Sea Dragon King, was also very excited. As the chief instructor of the cultivator army, he was confident in the cultivators he had trained, but he had never had the chance to experience actual combat. Therefore, he couldn't guarantee how they would fare when war truly arrived.
"Everyone! You must have heard many stories about the Ice Sword Mercenary Group. They travel through various planes, helping their compatriots in other worlds to kill those damned Sky-Slaying demons. Each time, they receive high praise, and much of the cultivation resources you use are obtained from other worlds."
"They are respected and loved, but these things are earned through victories in countless battles. You have been cultivating for a long time, and when you can thrive in [Doomsday Resurgence], I believe you will also yearn to step onto a real battlefield, to see the Sky-Slaying demons wail at our feet, and to witness our brethren from other worlds be awestruck by us!"
"Therefore, this time, our Blue Star Cultivator Army will embark on its maiden voyage to support the third Immortal Cultivation World. The Ice Sword Mercenary Group has already instilled fear in the Sky-Slaying demons. Let's not become a laughingstock for them by being in the same world as them..."
After Ao Qi finished his passionate speech, he raised his right fist and shouted loudly, "Humanity will win!"
Everyone roared in unison, "Humanity will win!"
At that moment, their morale was sky-high!
This included the geniuses of the Spark Project, such as Liu Jing, as well as many cultivators who were not part of the cultivator army but were above the Soul Transformation stage.
Xiao Baixiong was now a cultivator who had just broken through to the Soul Transformation stage, but his strength was weak among those at the same level. This cultivation was basically built up through various elixirs and heavenly treasures.
He was very nervous. He had never participated in trials that involved life-threatening danger because he was afraid.
"Immortal Brother, protect me, Immortal Brother, protect me... please let me return safely!"
Liu Jing, standing beside him, had his body tense, and his eyes revealed a resolute killing intent.
He was about to face the enemies who had destroyed his world. He was extremely impulsive now, wanting to cruelly torture those Sky-Slaying demons.
"Lord Cang Yuan, I wish I could have shown you my growth..."
...
Looking at these resolute cultivators, Chu Yang said no more. Ao Qi had already said everything that needed to be said. He did not deploy the entire cultivator army, only one-third of it.
Regardless, it was time to test the waters and see if these cultivators, who had been specially trained on Blue Star for so long, could adapt quickly on a real battlefield.
So, he opened the [Book of Planar Anchors], selected the third Immortal Cultivation World, and sent the nearly six hundred thousand troops present into it.
He did not have the ability to place marks on everyone that would allow them to return at any time, like those on Li Qingyun.
He had created them himself using the rules contained within the [Book of Planar Anchors]; they were not part of his original abilities granted by the system. Therefore, it was easy to send these people over, but to return, they could only hitch a ride with Li Qingyun.
Ao Qi originally wanted to go as well, but Chu Yang asked him to stay behind because he still had to manage the remaining cultivator army.
In reality, Chu Yang did not want the old Dragon King to be easily killed there. The Sea Dragon King's strength was only mid-tier even among the Great Ascension stage cultivators. In a real fight, he might not be a match for the Sky-Slaying demons.
...
This world could not be destroyed as a battlefield.
Therefore, before the Sky-Slaying demons arrived, the Immortal Emperors joined forces to create a new small world.
And by forcibly interfering with the opening direction of the planar通道, they rerouted it into this small world they had created.
This small world was also called the "Glory Battlefield."
Because after the arrival of the Sky-Slaying demons, people considered it an honor for humanity to be able to take to the battlefield and kill the Sky-Slaying demons.
The Immortal Emperors had already left this place to fight elsewhere.
It was fourteen against twenty-two; the number of Immortal Emperors on the human side was fourteen.
However, the third Immortal Cultivation World was said to be the pinnacle of immortal cultivation civilization not only because of the high number of top-tier combatants in this world but also because their Immortal Emperors were incredibly powerful.
For example, someone like Emperor Qing could fight three opponents by himself without any problem, let alone fighting mere newborns.
Even if not all of them were as strong as Emperor Qing, they could at least easily defeat opponents one-on-one.
However, the Sky-Slaying demons were not foolish enough to give them opportunities for one-on-one combat. They gathered together, determined to engage Emperor Qing and the others in team fights.
However, even in team fights, they were not their match.
It was just that eliminating them was not as easy. These Sky-Slaying demon Supremes were also stalling for time. They believed that once they plundered the human destiny of this world, they would surely be able to turn the tide.
This was because the destiny of this world was exceptionally high. As long as the battlefield below could plunder it before they were killed, they would achieve immediate victory.
And returning to the Glory Battlefield.
When the Sky-Slaying demon army descended and was about to go on a rampage, they looked around at everything with confusion.
"What the hell, did we come to the wrong place? Where are the humans? Why don't I see any of them? There are no buildings either..."
"Damn it, this is not our destination. Our exit has been tampered with!"
"It doesn't matter, let me tear open the planar通道 here."
"What the heck, why can't I tear it open?"
These tens of millions of Sky-Slaying demons stood there, staring at each other.
However, their confusion did not last long. Before their eyes, beams of teleportation light appeared.
They were the human cultivators who had come to engage the Sky-Slaying demons in battle.
They did not have a unified army organization but were armies dispatched by major sects.
Each major sect had its own reward system. The more Sky-Slaying demons killed here, the greater the rewards obtained.
"Who gave you the courage to dare to come to our world?"
An Immortal King stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the densely packed Sky-Slaying demons before him with a cold tone.
A king from the opposing side let out a wild laugh and said, "There is no world that our Sky-Slaying clan dares not go to. Don't think too highly of yourselves; all humans will be annihilated by us!"
The two sides first engaged in a verbal spat.
At [Remnant Incense Valley]'s delegation, Li Qingyun stood beside Xia Yunxi and leaned in to ask her ear, "Valley Master, have all the elders from our sect arrived?"
Although Xia Yunxi was the Valley Master, she was also nearing retirement.
Normally, an ordinary Immortal would be most suitable for the position of Valley Master. She had been promoted to Immortal King a few years ago.
"Naturally. Emperor Qing asked us to set an example. When we are willing to go all out to fight, other sects, even if it's just to save face, will spare no effort."
