Chapter 1230: Attack
The Frost Emperor\'s heart sank, as Shao Yangxun’s hesitation made their ploy obviously transparent.
Lu Yin sneered. "I understand. This junior won’t embarrass Senior any longer then. Farewell."
The Frost Emperor was helpless. "Alliance Leader Lu, we can allow the Frostgate Army to help you."
Lu Yin smiled and looked back at the Frost Emperor. "Senior, this isn’t helping me, but the two of us helping each other."
The Frost Emperor helplessly nodded.
"Since Senior intends for us to help each other, then this junior would like to ask for the Frostgate Army’s help," Lu Yin said.
Ku Wei shot a strange look over towards Lu Yin, as this was clearly something that Lu Yin had planned ahead of time.
The Frost Emperor was startled, as he had not expected Lu Yin to make such a request already.
Shao Yangxun, on the other hand, was not surprised, as he knew Lu Yin.
"What does Alliance Leader Lu wish to do?" the Frost Emperor asked.
Lu Yin smiled and said, "The Blaze Realm is too annoying, so I intend to clear it."
…
On one particular day, just thirteen years after Lu Yin first started cultivating, a massive event shook both the Innerverse and Outerverse: the Astral River Ark was stolen.
The ark connected the Innerverse and the Outerverse, and it did not belong to a single person or power. At best, it could be said to be overseen by Blazing Mist Flowzone.
The Astral River Ark had originally been Blazing Mist Flowzone’s biggest cash cow, but after the Great Eastern Alliance appeared, the ark had fallen under the joint supervision of the Great Eastern Alliance and Blazing Mist Flowzone. Since that time, Blazing Mist Flowzone had been unable to monopolize things like before when a mere Limiteer had been able to force an Explorer to kneel.
Of course, the Blaze Realm was extremely dissatisfied with this situation, as they had lost a percentage of the profits that came from operating the ark, and this was one of the primary motivations behind the Blaze Realm’s attempts to destroy the Great Eastern Alliance.
However, on this particular day, Aden boarded the Astral River Ark and triggered a historic event.
The cultivators stationed aboard the Astral River Ark were all wiped out, and the Great Eastern Alliance seized full control of the ark.
Thousands of people warily stared at the surrounding army. They were a mix of cultivators from the Outerverse and Innerverse while the troops surrounding them were all from the Great Eastern Alliance. There was already blood covering the floor.
"Everyone, there’s no need to panic. We are from the Great Eastern Alliance, and we are temporarily closing the Astral River Ark. Please return to the Outerverse one by one and wait to enter the Innerverse," Aden loudly announced.
After hearing this statement, one man within the crowd became upset. "I’ve finally saved up enough money to board the Astral River Ark, and now you’re forcing us to get off and go back? What are we supposed to do about our losses?"
Aden’s eyes snapped over to the man, who grew flustered by the attention.
"I don\'t intend to stop you, but am rather simply asking you to wait a bit longer before traveling to the Innerverse. For the moment, please return to the Outerverse. Thank you for your cooperation." After speaking, a tremendous pressure swept over the crowd.
Recently, Aden had broken through to the Enlighter realm, making him the first of Lu Yin\'s subordinates to reach this level. Aden had even been a Realmbreaker before becoming an Enlighter.
No one dared to offer up any sort of resistance, and Aden’s pressure convinced everyone to quickly file off of the Astral River Ark.
It did not take long for everyone to see battleships fly into the massive ark, and everyone here knew that something monumental was about to happen.
In the crowd, a bearded man felt helpless. "I can\'t even think about fishing anymore. Things are really becoming troublesome nowadays."
With that, he simply left.
In the Blaze Realm, flames swept through outer space, burning the sky. There were buildings formed from flames, and they were complete with doors, rooms, and pools that were all formed from fire.
This was the Blaze Realm. It had remained at peace for countless years, as the Blaze Realm was always the invader. It had not suffered an invasion in countless years. In fact, the last time that the Blaze Realm had retreated was when the Sixth Mainland had attacked the Fifth Mainland. In terms of the Fifth Mainland’s internal conflicts, the Blaze Realm had never been invaded.
The disciples of the Blaze Realm held an elite status within Blazing Mist Flowzone, and it was not easy for outsiders to enter the Blaze Realm.
"Senior brother, we’re lucky that we didn\'t get sent to Planet Coo, as we might not have been able to come back. Even some of the elders and other powerhouses died! I heard that there was a frightening cold air that froze everyone." Just outside the Blaze Realm’s border, a disciple was speaking with evident fear in his voice.
Next to the Blaze Realm disciple, his senior disciple sighed. "True. The Royal Frost Continent is not a place to mess with. According to the historical records, they once stopped an assault from the entire Blazing Mist Flowzone."
"I don\'t even know if that secret technique is real."
"Of course not! I never heard of such a thing before. It’s nothing but a hoax, and the Royal Frost Continent isn’t the only place where such rumors have sprung up. There are rumors about many other places having secret techniques. Apparently, some of the rumors have reached the sylvan dragon clan, and I heard that the dragon who reported the rumor was nearly beaten to death by Long Yi."
"Regardless, the rumors are seen as true, and so more and more people have been heading towards Planet Coo."
"Going there’s useless. Even I can\'t get into the Royal Frost Continent, so those trash won\'t even be able to find the door."
"I don\'t know what happened to the Realm Master, but I heard he was seriously injured."
"Shhh! That’s not something that we can even speak about."
…
"What’s that- Senior Brother, was a large fleet coming back today?" The junior disciple suddenly spoke up.
His senior disciple replied, "Not that I know of. Why do you ask?"
The junior disciple blinked and then mournfully wailed, "Enemy attack—!"
An infinite number of light beams shot out from the distance at the Blaze Realm. Outside their borders, many of the stationed defenders entered space for the first time. Beams of light rained down on them from battleships, and each beam had a power level of over 10,000. The defenders were unable to withstand these attacks, as there were only a few Explorers protecting the Blaze Realm’s border.
The entire Blaze Realm was shrouded in flames, but countless attacks shot forward and blasted into the flames before piercing through and shooting into the Blaze Realm.
Space itself seemed to shatter.
Some distance away, Aden solemnly watched the attacks rain down from within a battleship. They had traveled a long way within the Astral River Ark and had seized the opportunity to launch a sneak attack. After all, the Blaze Realm possessed one-third of Blazing Mist Flowzone’s strength.
This was not the first time that the Great Eastern Alliance had fought with the Blaze Realm, as they had instigated small difficulties and delays in order to prevent the Blaze Realm from sending reinforcements to the Daynight Flowzone when Leon’s Armada had stirred up so much trouble.
At this moment, the Great Eastern Alliance had launched its first ever battle on their path to truly entering the Innerverse.
There were nearly 15,000 battleships here, and they filled the entire nearby region. The number of vessels participating in this attack essentially matched the number of ships that the Sixth Mainland had sent when attacking the entire Outerverse after forcing their way through the Astral River. However, that had been before Lu Yin had even visited the Daynight Flowzone and enacted his plans there.
The Great Eastern Alliance had long since made preparations to attack the Innerverse.
A single round of attacks was the same as 15,000 Explorers launching all-out attacks. Not to mention the Blaze Realm, but not even the entire Blazing Mist Flowzone had that many Explorers. In fact, they had far fewer.
The outermost flames surrounding the Blaze Realm were instantly destroyed, as well as many of the surrounding planets.
These planets belonged to the Blaze Realm’s cultivators, and many spacecraft and various precious materials had been stored on them.
Countless attacks were fired without any pause, and soon, some figures appeared in space. There were more than a dozen people here, and they were all at least Explorer realm cultivators from the Blaze Realm. The most powerful of them was Kun Ban.
Due to the incident with the Royal Frost Continent, Kun Ban had been punished and sent to guard the Blaze Realm’s border. He was a powerful Hunter, and thus, he was able to ignore all of the attacks that contained the power of an Explorer. Even with a greater number of attacks, he would remain uninjured.
"Fire!" Kun Ban fiercely yelled. Behind him, more than a dozen Blaze Realm cultivators unleashed their attacks at the same time. Their flames converged to form a massive fireball that shot towards the Great Eastern Alliance’s forces.
Several figures emerged from within the Allied Forces, and they raised their hands as the fireballs approached and deflected the fireballs away.
Kun Ban was startled. "Hunters?"
Then, an even more shocking scene unfolded before his eyes. One after another, Hunters stepped forward from the attacking forces until a full fifty Hunters appeared. This terrified Kun Ban, and he went pale. "Why are there so many Hunters?"
The next moment, the Hunters all attacked, overwhelming Kun Ban and the other Blaze Realm experts. With that, the attack was done. With the exception of a massive spatial tear in the sky, there was nothing else to be seen.
Inside his battleship, the corners of Aden\'s mouth curled up. This was the power of the Great Eastern Alliance’s rapid response team that had been assembled from the entire Outerverse’s various experts. The fifty Hunters all hailed from the seventy two weaves of the Outerverse.
15,000 battleships made their way into the Blaze Realm.
The interior of the Blaze Realm had fallen into chaos long ago. Under the direction of the Blaze Realm’s powerhouses, every cultivator who had reached the Explorer realm or above rushed out, and battleships raced through outer space to confront the Great Eastern Alliance’s forces. At the same time, the flames surrounding the Blaze Realm suddenly changed. They formed themselves into a long whip that slashed at the Allied Forces.
Aden leaped forward and used his thunder shield along with his Thunder Mountain Breach and nine lined battle force to block the fiery whip. However, the force was so strong that his thunder shield instantly shattered while Aden was forced to spit out blood with a pale face.
Dozens of the Great Eastern Alliance’s Hunters were stunned by this sight, and the devices that measured power levels started going off, occasionally exploding. The whip attack had had a power level above 400,000, and it had actually approached the power of an Envoy.
Aden was actually quite lucky that he had moved out when the whip had just formed, as the strength of the whip would have risen even further after another second. By then, it would have been enough to kill Aden.
The Allied Forces had originally assumed that their attack on the Blaze Realm would proceed smoothly and that many of the Hunters had disregarded the Innerverse’s powerful organizations. But this sight stunned all of the leaders of the Outerverse’s major powers observing the battle into silence. This was not something that the Great Eastern Alliance could break through.
This was the difference in strength.
The Great Eastern Alliance\'s low level forces far exceeded what the Blaze Realm could field, and they actually surpassed that of any Innerverse powers. However, as soon as one considered powerhouses in the Enlighter realm, the Outerverse would no longer be comparable to the Innerverse, as they had almost no experts with power levels that amounted to hundreds of thousands.
Inside a battleship, Wei Rong’s eyes narrowed. He was personally leading this attack.
He felt helpless when he looked out at the flaming whip that could warp space and smash through the void. This was a difference in strength that he could not compensate for.
Behind him, a woman spoke up. "This is the Blaze Realm’s defensive measures. Out of the thousands of powers in the Outerverse, Millions City, the Neo-Vestige Sect, and the Dark Phoenix Clan are all capable of defending themselves against an Envoy’s attack, so how could the Blaze Realm not have similar capabilities?"
Wei Rong casually replied, "It\'s time for you to play your part, Lilyrose."
The woman was Lilyrose, and she had told Lu Yin about the Astral River Ark’s location within Blazing Mist Flowzone, put Lu Yin in touch with the Gasfire Alliance, and told Wei Rong about the weakest section of the Blaze Realm’s border. Without her, the Great Eastern Alliance would have had a much harder time of things, as the Blaze Realm had already been on high alert.
