Wu Shattered Star River

East side of Hell Blood Plains, Crescent Moon Forest.

The forests within the Illusory Secret Realm all contain maze formations. There are a total of eight forests within the secret realm, and Crescent Moon Forest is the largest.

At this moment, there are many warriors on a large mountain outside the forest, numbering over ten thousand. Little Royal Grandson and his group are here.

The reason they gathered here is because they are backed by Crescent Moon Forest. If the Gods and Demons attack, they can retreat into the forest.

Inside the forest, there are maze formations. If they retreat inside, the difficulty for the Gods and Demons to encircle and suppress them will increase several times.

This small mountain has been set up with many God Arrays and Immortal Arrays. Little Royal Grandson plans to use this as a defensive position. If the Gods and Demons want to attack, they will fight a few battles here.

"Report!"

A scout came running, ascended the small mountain, knelt on one knee before Little Royal Grandson Liu Zheng and his group, and reported, "The armies of the Gods and Demons have moved and are rushing towards this way."

Little Royal Grandson was sitting cross-legged on a futon on a boulder at the mountain peak. He frowned and asked, "How many are coming?"

The scout reported, "The entire army has been mobilized, leaving only a few dozen scouts. All the other Gods and Demons are coming towards us?"

"Hmm?"

Little Royal Grandson cast his gaze towards a tall man in black armor standing next to the stone, and said with a gloomy expression, "Could it be that Lu Xingyu, Jiang Jiuxuan, and the others have all been killed? Otherwise, why would the Gods and Demons mobilize their entire army?"

"Swish, swish, swish~"

Many Immortal Reverends' expressions changed drastically. If Lu Xingyu, Jiang Jiuxuan, Fairy Biyao, and the others were really killed, it would be tantamount to a major earthquake.

Empress Ziwei and Emperor Changsheng would be furious, and the Heavenly Court's experts might be mobilized to fight the Gods and Demons in a bloody battle.

Furthermore…

They, a group of people, abandoned Lu Xingyu, Jiang Jiuxuan, and the other fairies and fled, allowing them to be surrounded and killed by the Gods and Demons. If this matter is reported back, they will all have to bear responsibility.

"They're all dead?"

Xing Gu and Lü Qiuyin exchanged glances, a hint of joy revealed in their eyes.

If the people from Illusory Mountain are all dead, then Jiang Han must also be dead, right? Wouldn't their great revenge be avenged?

"Probably not…"

The black-armored man pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Lu Xingyu, Jiang Jiuxuan, and the others are not that weak. They wouldn't be unable to hold on for a short time."

"Furthermore… if they were all killed, the experts of the Gods and Demons would find a way to ascend Illusory Mountain and take the Illusory Blade, instead of rushing their entire army towards us."

"Liu Zheng!"

Little Royal Grandson ordered, "You quickly arrange for two top-notch scouts to investigate Illusory Mountain and see what the situation is with Lu Xingyu and the others."

"Yes, sir!"

Liu Zheng bowed and accepted the order, arranging for an Immortal Reverend proficient in stealth and with an extremely abnormal movement technique to investigate, and also arranged for two Immortal Lords to investigate.

Little Royal Grandson cast his gaze towards Wei Wushen and said, "Wushen, the armies of the Gods and Demons are pressing down on us. How should we respond?"

Wei Wushen was completely enveloped in black armor, revealing only a pair of gloomy eyes. He said indifferently, "Since they're here, let's fight a couple of battles first and see what happens. If it really doesn't work, we can retreat into Crescent Moon Forest."

"Alright!"

Little Royal Grandson nodded slightly. He stood up, looked down at his surroundings, and said, "The entire army prepares for battle, and set up some more Immortal Arrays. When the armies of the Gods and Demons come, we'll fight a few battles first. If we can't win, we'll all retreat into Crescent Moon Forest."

"We'll stay in the forest for a while, and when the time comes, we'll all be teleported out, and then we'll naturally be safe."

"Yes, sir!"

Many soldiers cupped their fists and accepted the order, while some cultivators lowered their heads, a sneer appearing at the corners of their mouths.

This so-called Little Royal Grandson is, in many people's hearts, no different from a mediocre talent. So many cultivators were buried in the Illusory Secret Realm this time because of rescuing him.

His combat strength is lacking, he's afraid of death, and he has no command ability, yet he's standing on a boulder at this moment, giving a passionate speech and talking grandiosely?

Does standing high make him seem very mighty?

If he weren't the Jade Emperor's grandson, who would pay attention to him?

…

Five days later, the armies of the Gods and Demons arrived.

The two armies did not rush to attack, but instead set up camp several thousand miles away from the small mountain. The two races sent out many scouts to begin investigating the situation here.

The Immortal Arrays here have been activated, and the entire small mountain is covered in thick white fog. Therefore, the scouts from the Gods and Demons who come to investigate can't actually find out anything. They only know that the Heavenly Court's army is stationed here.

A day later, the armies of the Gods and Demons moved, and they pressed forward with their entire army, without any intention of probing.

The two armies of the Gods and Demons, one on the left and one on the right, diagonally inserted themselves like two large pincers. The Heavenly Court's army did not move, but instead stood ready within the Immortal Arrays.

The two armies of the Gods and Demons did not directly attack, but instead bypassed the small mountain and arrived outside Crescent Moon Forest, actually cutting off the Heavenly Court's army's retreat route.

"Swish, swish, swish!"

The expressions of the Heavenly Court cultivators hiding within the Immortal Arrays changed drastically. The Gods and Demons actually didn't attack, but instead went to block their retreat route?

Once this retreat route is cut off, if they are defeated, they can only escape to the Hell Blood Plains.

The Hell Blood Plains are so empty, where can they escape to? They will be hunted down to death one by one by the Gods and Demons.

"Follow me to kill our way out!"

Wei Wushen summoned a heavy sword in his hand and roared with murderous intent. He didn't even ask Little Royal Grandson for instructions and directly charged out.

"Kill!"

A group of Immortal Reverends followed Wei Wushen and charged out. Little Royal Grandson's eyes flickered a few times, and he ordered the entire army to follow.

He led Liu Zheng and his group and followed, but hung back behind the main force.

More than ten thousand Heavenly Court troops charged out from the small mountain. They were originally very close to Crescent Moon Forest, and they immediately clashed with the armies of the Gods and Demons.

"Kill!"

The high-ranking members of the Gods and Demons had a bellyful of anger that they had nowhere to vent after being killed by Jiang Han. Seeing the Heavenly Court's army charging out, they all fearlessly welcomed them, and the two sides began a fierce battle.

A great battle was fought for a day and a night. In the end, Little Royal Grandson and Wei Wushen led the team back to the small mountain.

Both sides suffered heavy casualties. Three to four thousand cultivators from the Gods and Demons were killed, and twelve God Reverends and Demon Reverends were killed, half of whom were killed by Wei Wushen.

Five to six thousand cultivators from the Heavenly Court were killed, and seventeen Immortal Reverends were killed.

Wei Wushen was really fierce. Under his leadership, the Heavenly Court's side was initially unstoppable, disrupting the God and Demon armies and causing them to retreat steadily.

However, the Gods and Demons quickly stabilized their formation, and two Purple Gold Gods and one Heavenly Demon held back Wei Wushen.

With Wei Wushen held back, there was no leader, and they could only fight on their own.

The Heavenly Court's side originally had fewer soldiers and experts. The most important thing was that Little Royal Grandson was surrounded by twenty Immortal Reverends.

These Immortal Reverends were afraid that Little Royal Grandson would encounter any mishaps, so they guarded him closely, not daring to leave half a step…

With so many fewer experts, it would be strange if they could win.

Fortunately, Immortal Arrays had been set up here early on. The Gods and Demons suffered a lot of casualties, and they didn't dare to rashly attack the mountain, so they gained some breathing time.

The entire army was very沮丧, and also very frightened.

Originally, they thought that stationing here would allow them to advance or retreat, but now the Gods and Demons are stationed on the Crescent Moon Forest side, and their retreat route has been cut off. Many Heavenly Court cultivators are terrified and feel that they will be unable to escape this time.

"咻!"

More than an hour later, a black shadow floated in. The Immortal Reverend who went to Illusory Mountain returned, bringing good news—

Lu Xingyu, Jiang Jiuxuan, and Fairy Jiuxuan are not dead. In addition, Jiang Han obtained the Illusory Blade and successfully repelled the attacks of the Gods and Demons twice.

"Ah?"

After receiving the report, Little Royal Grandson was overjoyed and stood up abruptly, saying, "Are they coming? If they haven't come, quickly go and ask them to come down the mountain to help!"
