Heavenly Mountain Cloud Gate.
Ye Wansheng would be in charge of defending this stronghold. The enemy he would face was Divine Sect’s Discipline Palace.
Discipline Palace was the main force controlled by Vice Sect Master Du in Divine Sect. He deployed 1500 members this time.
All Divine Sect members reached Dominator rank. Their subjugation army was also simple, simply these 1500 Discipline Palace members.
The person commanding this Discipline army was Qin Guang who had a conflict with Chu Mu in Imprint Valley.
As Chu Mu possessed Seven Sins Fox’s Monument Tear, he had to obtain it using whatever excuse he could make. Of course, Qin Guang knew that there were others who wanted that Monument Tear.
The faction cooperating with Qin Guang to take down Heavenly Mountain Stronghold was Hua Border’s army faction.
Hua Border was a famous large Border Kingdom in Zhengming Continent. Its territory was very vast, ranked number two amongst all Border Kingdoms.
Other than Hua Border’s own army faction, there were many powerful sects and households in the territory. Hence, the army sent by Hua Border reached quite a scale. There were a total of 1000 Dominators and over 50,000 Emperors.
With that, Divine Sect and Hua Border had a total of 2500 Dominators and over 50,000 Emperors.
Heavenly Mountain Stronghold was not the main battlefield of the subjugation alliance. After all, taking this Cloud Gate route to New Moon Land was not very convenient.
Meanwhile, in New Moon Land’s stronghold, there were only 1000 Dominators. 500 from New Moon Palace army, while the remaining 500 were all volunteer soul pet trainers.
The difference between invasion and protection was that invaders would not be acknowledged and supported by these volunteer soul pet trainers.
Meanwhile, protection was a form of responsibility and mission. Volunteer soul pet trainers would willingly join the protection side.
New Moon Palace army’s Dominator fighting strength reached 500, while volunteer soul pet trainers also reached 500. This was sufficient to show that New Moon Palace was well liked.
There was a clear difference in army size between Heavenly Mountain Stronghold and Divine Sect plus Hua Border. As the defending side, Heavenly Mountain Stronghold’s defensive installments might not be able to perform an important role. After all, the enemy’s fighting strength would be all Emperor and Dominator rank.
The fortunate thing was that Cloud Gate Edler Yue Lei and his disciples would be personally defending here.
Within the hundreds of years Cloud Gate Elder Yue Lei guarded Cloud Gate, he did not just stay there. He would actually take a walk everywhere after a period of time and pick some people with decent potential to be trained in Heavenly Mountain.
After so many years, his disciple group had also become a remarkable fighting force!
Ye Wansheng was naturally one of Cloud Gate Elder’s disciples. With Cloud Gate Elder Yue Lei as lead, there were a total of eighteen disciples. They would be leading New Moon Palace army and New Moon soul pet trainers to oppose Divine Sect and Hua Border.
Heavenly Mountain Stronghold could only be called a secondary battlefield, because the real battlefield would be at Eastern Wild Forest Stronghold.
Eastern Wild Forest route was much better than Heavenly Mountain. Furthermore, there were plenty of places to set up camps. Currently, the main force of various major factions were camping at the junction between western border of Cloud Realm and Eastern Wild Forest. They were prepared to charge into Eastern Wild Forest and invade New Moon Land at any moment.
The army camping in Eastern Wild Forest was formed by Elemental Clan’s Fire Sect and Wind Sect, Demon Beast Palace’s Snake Dragon Faction, Xuan Gate Immortal Sect’s Commandment Palace and Mu Family Dynasty’s Mu Tuan Clan. There were over 10,000 Dominators, while the Emperor rank army filled up the few mountain ranges outside Eastern Wild Forest!
Without a doubt, Eastern Wild Forest would become the main battlefield of this joint subjugation!
Meanwhile, on New Moon Land’s side, New Moon Holy Guard, New Moon Palace army, volunteer alliance were all defending Eastern Wild Forest Stronghold. There were around 3000 Dominators.
Compared to the enormous subjugation alliance, 3000 Dominators were really too insignificant. More importantly, there were many Immortals within the subjugation alliance. Every faction was led by Gate Master rank people. For example, Fire Sect’s Madam Huo, Wind Sect’s Tong Guanyu, Snake Dragon Faction’s Zeng Long, Mu Family Dynasty’s Mu Tuan, Xuan Gate Immortal School’s Gu Xinshui and Lü Fengnan......
These experts already held great authority in Zhengming Continent. They were famous and strong. This was also the reason many New Moon Land members felt helpless. One had to actually step into Zhengming Continent and visit enough cities and Border Kingdoms to truly realize what becoming those Sect Masters and Gate Masters actually meant in this cruel and competitive world.
New Moon Land also had Immortals, but almost none could become Gate Master or Sect Master rank experts.
Immortal rank would deal a devastating blow to Dominator rank. If they could not keep those Immortals in check, New Moon Land would be flattened quickly!
......
Wanxiang City Conference Hall.
“Chu Mu, are you sure we don’t need to reinforce the two sides connecting to ocean region?” asked Mu Qingyi.
“Yeah, Wupan Continent’s Wupan Navy and Ning Family Dynasty’s factions are also eyeing on us. The forces they would be sending definitely won’t be little. Especially Wupan Navy, they would surely want to expand further North. They will swallow our New Moon Land to act as the checkpoint for their expansion,” said Elder Pang.
The four battlefields, Heavenly Mountain battlefield, Eastern Wild Forest battlefield, Windy Rain City and White Nightmare City.
Windy Rain City and White Nightmare City might encounter the attack from Wupan Navy. Especially Windy Rain City, if Wupan Navy occupied Windy Rain City, they could send their main army to Xiang Rong City and Wanxiang City directly. It meant they would be entering the center of New Moon Land and dealing a fatal blow to New Moon Land.
Hence, Windy Rain City was also a crucial point of defense. No accidents would be allowed.
“It’s enough with New Moon Navy. Deploy the remaining forces to Eastern Wild Forest Stronghold,” said Chu Mu with confidence.
“This...... King Chu, the responsibility you are giving us is really too heavy. Our New Moon Navy’s average strength is certainly higher than them, but our elite only numbered 1000. Wupan Navy has nine regiments, each regiment has thirty fleets......” Sang Ying had a bitter expression.
“Relax, your ocean region will be safe,” said mermaid princes Lan Qie with a smile.
As the war occurred suddenly, Chu Mu did not have any time to make arrangement for mermaid princess to visit the human cities. Lan Qie was also very considerate, she followed next to Chu Mu during the war conferences over the past few days.
Liu Binglan looked at Lan Qie. She had felt the two beauties Chu Mu brought back this time seemed strange. Their waists would swing exaggeratedly when walking, and the legs inside that long skirt also seemed weird. More importantly, their gaze always gave off a foreign feeling.
“There were outsiders before, so it’s not convenient for me to talk,” Chu Mu looked at Lan Qie and asked her to stand in front of everyone.
Everyone was confused, would this beauty possess something special?
“This is East Ocean’s Ocean Species princess —— Lan Qie. She controls the 360 races of Ocean Species. You can say that the Eternal Ocean region humans have reached are all her territories!” introduced Chu Mu formally.
Liu Binglan had already told her trusted people about the five races after returning to New Moon Land. They only knew about the other major races apart from humans recently.
Meanwhile, Chu Mu suddenly introduced this beautiful and sexy woman to be an Ocean Species member, and a princess at that. This caused everyone to open their eyes wide in disbelief!
Everyone’s gaze turned to Lan Qie for a while.
“Hello, this is the first time I’m visiting the human world,” Lan Qie politely nodded towards everyone.
She could sense deep doubts from these people. She smiled and weaved an elegant melody from her sexy lips.
When this beautiful melody reached the ears of everyone, it became a simply canvas within their minds. Mermaid princess revealed her real appearance in the canvas and jumped into the ocean with her elegant style.
Meanwhile, in the ocean, densely packed ocean creatures lined up inside the ocean. They were neat and solemn just like human armies!
The images Lan Qie used her arcane-filled voice to let everyone watch were real. It was the scene of Ocean Species fighting against Calamity Ocean Demon.
This scene was very short, but really astonished everyone!
The other races really exist!
Furthermore, the Ocean Species princess, the legendary mermaid, was standing right before them!
The strongest fighting race of Ocean Species, Ice Demon Shark clan is living in Dark Sky Ocean now. This is thanks to your King Chu for finding a suitable ocean region to let them live. Ice Demon Shark clan likes battles and is courageous. They won’t let tt army which attempts to attack your New Moon Land cross that ocean region easily,” said Lan Qie.
“On the other hand, our strongest Ocean Species, Ocean Iguana race, is currently advancing towards your ocean region. The western coastline of your human ocean region is getting controlled by our Ocean Species members successively. You will receive intel immediately if anything happens.”
Lan Qie’s words shocked everyone.
What did she mean by controlling this human ocean region called Eternal Ocean??
Human ocean region ranged from the North Barren Ocean Region further North from New Moon Land, to New Moon Land’s Nightmare Ocean Region, then to the enormous Dark Sky Ocean, and then Wupan Continent’s Guan Ocean, there was an even larger ocean region further South from Guan Ocean.
This entire coastline stretched over unknown kilometers. There were also countless islands and archipelagos along the stretch. Nobody, including Wupan Navy, amongst human territories dared to claim to have controlled this western coastline of human territory!
“Can I ask about the fighting force of your Ice Demon Shark clan which migrated to Dark Sky Ocea?” Yuan Sui opened his mouth.
“Using your human’s method to describe, Ice Demon Shark clan has 3000 Dmoniators, 50,000 Emperors, Monarch rank army is still migrating towards this ocean region, there is over a million and still increasing,” said Lan Qie.
Everyone drew a sharp breath after hearing the statistic!
Amongst the 360 races of Ocean Species, a single Ice Demon Shark clan actually had such an enormous army! Furthermore, they would be living in Dark Sky Ocean which was closest to New Moon Land!
