Chapter 845 - - 587 Forming up troops and battle formations

—————✧✧✧✧—————

The Daoist Ancestor personally brought twelve alien warriors to compete against him?!

The old guy didn’t make a move directly, but chose to fight a proxy war, proving that he didn’t want to end the alien battlefield either and was observing Pan-Universe Entertainment from the shadows, right?

From a distance, Duge gazed at the enormous shadow of the Innate wood above the Middle Heavenly State, analyzing everyone’s thoughts.

For a long time.

His concern had been the lack of competitiveness on the alien battlefield, because it would end prematurely if it wasn’t exciting enough; after all, the advantages he had gained in this world had not yet met his expectations.

Now, this concern had vanished.

They gained fame before the battle even started, something only alien warriors would do.

Alien warriors needed influence to boost their rankings to avoid elimination by Pan-Universe Entertainment; the Heavenly Venerables and Emperors in the Immortal Court didn’t have this worry.

Obviously.

The twelve alien warriors chosen by the Daoist Ancestor were very familiar with his style of combat, not coming directly for a head-on clash but choosing the weakest Middle Heavenly State as the breakthrough point.

The Middle Heavenly State had only humans, no Demon Clan.

Even though the Central State Army formed of literary and martial hearts included Demon Clan and Underworld generals working together, its defensive power was still the weakest compared to other states.

…

After hundreds of millions of years of development, the Immortal Court was the most powerful; even the three-clan alliance was weaker than the Immortal Court.

The Immortal Court’s prior approach would’ve been to deploy troops directly to suppress the three-clan allied forces; they would rise wherever they fell.

Therefore.

Duge set the three-clan alliance’s headquarters in the Southern Zen Region.

The moment they learned that Immortal Court troops were marching out, the Underworld Emperor, Demon Emperor, and Duge had already made the strongest defense in the Southern Zen Region.

But this time, the Immortal Emperor delegated authority to alien warriors, and the Immortal Court’s army was heading straight for the Middle Heavenly State, even using propaganda to weaken Duge’s influence, clearly intending to eat away at the Human Race’s territory step by step…

Having the Daoist Ancestor supporting you from behind is indeed different!

I just wonder which star’s warrior is so brave?

However, Duge didn’t take the opponent’s propaganda to heart, as the Way of the Human Emperor had been established, not something that could be overthrown by a few words.

…

“Human Emperor, with the Innate wood covering the Middle Heavenly State, the Immortal Emperor and Queen Mother of the West must be personally stationed in the army. How are we going to fight?” the Underworld Emperor asked with a worried look, “Moreover, the Daoist Ancestor has actually sent disciples to help the Heavenly Court. If the Daoist Ancestor makes a move himself, how should we respond?”

“The Daoist Ancestor’s twelve disciples are alien warriors,” Duge glanced at the Underworld Emperor and said. “He doesn’t want this game to end early either; he won’t enter the fray himself.”

The Underworld Emperor was startled, then let out a sigh of relief.

“Underworld Emperor, what’s the purpose of the Innate wood?” Duge looked at the large tree shadow occupying half the sky and asked.

“The Innate wood reaches the heavens and is the first divine wood since the creation of heaven and earth, known as the ladder to heaven. It shelters all beings, wards off all laws, and can change the seasons. Within the coverage of the Innate wood, everyone’s cultivation speed doubles,” the Underworld Emperor said.

“Is it easy to break in?” Duge asked.

“It’s easy to get in, but within the area covered by the Innate wood, our people’s use of magic power will be halved. This augmentation for them and reduction for us means we likely can’t win against the Heavenly Court’s army,” the Underworld Emperor said.

“The Immortal Emperor has the Innate wood, and the Queen Mother has the peach tree, what are the Magical Treasures of the two allies?” Duge turned his head to look at the Demon Emperor and the Underworld Emperor and asked.

“My birthright treasure is the Samsara Mirror,” said the Underworld Emperor. “This mirror can reflect the life span of billions of people, their karmic entanglements, determining life and death.”

“Will one die if reflected by the Samsara Mirror?” Duge, recalling the Yin-Yang Mirror, asked.

“The Samsara Mirror indeed has the effect of drawing the soul from the body,” the Underworld Emperor looked at Duge and said indifferently.

“Have you used it on alien warriors?” Duge asked.

“Heavenly Path Netherworld Skill” devours souls, while the Samsara Mirror directly draws the soul from the body; these two are a perfect match, no wonder the Underworld Emperor could take the seat of the Underworld’s master.

“I have,” the Underworld Emperor looked at Duge and said, “the moment the soul leaves the body, it immediately disperses, leaving nothing behind.”

Duge inwardly exclaimed at the close call, feeling a sense of hindsight fear.

At that time, his soul was locked within his body.

If the Underworld Emperor had sought him out at that time, not asking anything and just shining that on him, who knows if he could have withstood it?

He had underestimated these native top champions.

But now, with Pan-Universe Entertainment adding the setting of seizing the bodies of alien warriors, even if the Samsara Mirror pulled his soul out of his body, it likely wouldn’t cause any trouble.

“How many people can the Samsara Mirror reflect at one time?” Duge asked.

“If close, it can reflect a few people; if far, it can reflect more people,” said the Underworld Emperor. “The more people it reflects, the weaker the pulling force becomes. Human Emperor, the Samsara Mirror is not an attack-type Magical Treasure.”

“Then, can the Samsara Mirror draw out the Immortal Emperor’s Divine Soul?” Duge pressed on.

“With the Divine Soul stable above the level of a Daluo Golden Immortal, the probability of being drawn out by the Samsara Mirror is much lower, not to mention a Quasi-Saint,” the Underworld Emperor said, looking at Duge oddly.

It’s still not as good as the Yin-Yang Mirror!

In the “Investiture of the Gods,” when Yin Hong wielded the Yin-Yang Mirror against his master Chijingzi, Chijingzi got so scared that he turned and ran…

But the main effect of the Samsara Mirror is to observe people’s lifespans, serving the function of the book of life and death; these two Magical Treasures cannot really be compared.

“Demon Emperor, what is your birthright treasure?” Duge turned to look at the Demon Emperor and inquired.

“The Primordial Banner,” the Demon Emperor looked at Duge and said calmly. “The Primordial Banner commands troops and can shift stars, specifically countering the Innate wood.”

Command troops and shift stars?

Duge was taken aback for a moment. The Innate wood boosts allies and weakens enemies, and the Primordial Banner directly moves people out of the range of the Innate wood. Isn’t that a sure counter to the Innate wood?
