Chapter 1487: Chapter 1044: Joining the Group (3K)

"The Time Hourglass? That’s indeed a fine item. But with your current strength, you shouldn’t need to use that, right?" Yun Ting asked, clearly not understanding why Li Changhe would choose such an auxiliary class of Secret Treasure.

Because with Li Changhe’s current self-healing abilities and combat power, there would be no need for the Time Hourglass to assist him.

To restore injuries by leaping in time? Li Changhe had molecular self-healing. What injuries couldn’t he recover from? Coupled with his nearly inexhaustible Black Mud Divinity, he was considered immortal.

Change Title Skills? Li Changhe was so strong that he didn’t even need Title Skills. Not to mention he also had the Biomimetic Teardrop: one using Hundred-Headed Shooter, the other using Indomitable Ride of Hundred Tigers. They perfectly complemented each other.

Although the Time Hourglass was precious, it seemed to be of little help to Li Changhe.

"No, Brother Ting, this is a superb trick. If necessary, I can surprise those demigod-level enemies," Li Changhe responded with a smile. "Of course, everything has its risks, and it would be better if it doesn’t get to that point."

In Li Changhe’s plan, the Time Hourglass could cause the target to return to a state twenty-four hours prior, achieving miracles even demi-gods would struggle with.

Of course, this would also serve as his trump card. Like the Pointed General Banner, it could only be used in the final battle.

"All right... you don’t need any Divine Inheritance right now anyway," Yun Ting responded: "It’s just a bit of a pity."

Meanwhile, inside the Immortal Palace, other players were still selecting their rewards.

Li Changhe didn’t interfere with anything and simply walked out of the Immortal Palace.

At this time on the reconstrued battlefield, the Supreme King and Wuji, along with the other powerhouses, had already gained a significant advantage.

With the help of the Celestial Soldiers and Generals, the Transcendents, and the players’ unexpected strategy in combat, three Annihilation main warships had already been paralyzed.

Their approach to seizing control of the ships was different from Li Changhe’s solo raiding; without their mounts, they couldn’t forcibly take over the warships’ control.

But after multiple combats with the Annihilation fleets, they were well-practiced.

After jumping aboard, they knew exactly how to swiftly neutralize the enemy fleet’s firepower and efficiently destroy the internal control systems of the warships. They had it down to a fine art.

The Annihilation forces in the reshaped war clearly hadn’t anticipated the possibility of being boarded by enemies, let alone understanding why the Celestial Court’s forces had their weapons and why they were so familiar with their warships.

The jump aboard operation was a tremendous success.

The Supreme King and Wuji were particularly outstanding; the Supreme King performed One vital energy transforms into Pure Ones, with each Pure One and Wuji each wielding longswords at the corners of the battlefield, deploying the Slaying Immortal Sword Array.

This was a formation deduced by the Supreme King from snippets of various ancient texts, a formidable Immortal Skill that required at least four sufficiently powerful divine creatures to form a sword formation.

When the four stood at the corners wielding their swords, a powerful intent of slaughter filled the battlefield. Four grey-black clouds surged towards the heavens as if heralding the apocalypse, crazily attacking the Annihilation King.

That king’s Void Engine was fully operational, attempting to counteract the sword formation. Strangely, his Void Engine seemed to be completely isolated from the void, unable to perform effective jumps. It was as if countless layers of psychic storms were hindering his divine recovery.

The king could only activate his powerful strength to attack the sword formation, hoping to break free quickly.

However, his immense power was seized by the sword formation’s spiraling grey-black clouds and used against him. The clouds swept up the king’s own solar flare strikes, slamming them back into the body of the Annihilation King.

As one grew and the other diminished, the king was indeed overpowered and started to be overwhelmed by the increasingly intense killing intent.

"Using the sword formation to isolate the void, reducing the enemy’s speed of divine replenishment. And within the sword formation, borrowing strength to amplify it. The greater the power unleashed by the Evil Spirit, the stronger the attack he will suffer. As long as the evil spirit’s divinity isn’t more powerful than the neutralization by their four divinities, he can’t break free," Jianmu exclaimed. "And that Annihilation King’s Void Engine has been affected by the seal, responding very slowly to divinity. The less divinity he uses, the less he has. One mistake leads to a cascade of errors. It won’t be long before that evil spirit is ground down alive."

"Is this formation he deduced on his own different from the original Slaying Immortal Sword Array mentioned in the myths?" Li Changhe inquired.

"But I haven’t seen it either, so I don’t know the might of the ’original version’ you’re talking about," Jianmu replied. "As far as I’m concerned, a method that can destroy evil spirits is good; there’s no need to rank them."

On the battlefield, the Annihilation King, realizing the problem, had no choice but to call for support.

The distant main warships had to make space to start assisting that king.

This also provided an opportunity for the other players, who worked together to liberate an Immortal strength warrior.

When one of the Supreme King’s Three Pure Ones saw an Immortal escape, he immediately roared, "Quickly enter the formation to slay the enemy!"

The Immortal was somewhat surprised by the emergence of the Supreme King and Wuji, but regardless, he promptly raised his sword and charged into the Slaying Immortal Sword Array.

Once inside the formation, the Immortal also had his throne sealed, and his divinity could not replenish, but he could enter and exit the sword formation at any time without being attacked by the rolling clouds.

After executing some Immortal Skills inside, he would step out of the formation to replenish some divinity, and then go back to attack the king with another Immortal Skill.

The Annihilation King, trapped in the formation and unable to recover his divinity, could only grow more frantic and desperate.

In the end, he was unwillingly slain by the sword formation.

Li Changhe couldn’t help nodding as he saw this.

If he encountered demigod combat strength again, he, along with the Supreme King and Wuji, could entirely use this tactic to fight.

The recovery speed of the Black Mud Divinity was super fast and was just too fitting for such a method.

The question was whether this method would be effective when being surrounded and attacked.

The Supreme King had also found a way to cooperate with the Immortals. He and Wuji would use sword arrays to assist, while the Immortals would enter the array to harass. Soon, two more Immortals were freed.

Once the combat strength of the three Immortals was available, the defeat of the Annihilation side was inevitable.

Just as the Supreme King planned to try out this tactic on the battlefield for True Gods.

Reinforcements for Annihilation arrived... The trial had ended.

Afterward, tens of thousands of challengers appeared in front of the Immortal Palace and started the award ceremony.

And, naturally, the Supreme King was at the forefront.

He walked up to the front of the Immortal Palace and gestured a hand sign to Li Changhe that descendants of the Heavenly Court Remnant Clan would never understand, "How many people?"

"Ten thousand," Li Changhe responded using hand gestures as well. He naturally knew what the Supreme King wanted. Seeing so many Heavenly Court Remnant Clan members, the Supreme King’s mouth watered with envy.

Among the ten thousand Heavenly Court descendants were over a thousand Celestials, in other words, over a thousand divine creatures.

The rest also possessed powerful Heavenly Court bloodlines.

This made the Supreme King envious, wanting to incorporate all these remnant clans into the Hellsprings Reverse formation. With their combat strength and their inheritances, the Supreme King could build an even more powerful human army.

"I want them all," the Supreme King didn’t hide anything from Li Changhe and directly expressed his intentions through hand gestures.

"Leave it to me," Li Changhe naturally knew the other’s plans and assured him straightaway.

"Not bad, me!" The Supreme King praised and then entered the Immortal Palace.

"What did you guys do?" Jianmu split off another wooden avatar to ask, "How didn’t I see your hand gestures?"

"Don’t mind it, just some casual chat," Li Changhe replied, "By the way, what happens next?"

"What next?" Jianmu seemed puzzled.

"Now that you’ve come into contact with humans and know the general situation of the outside world, what do you Heavenly Court Remnant Clan plan to do? Continue to stay in this world or go out and merge with humanity?" Li Changhe began to probe.

"We naturally want to go out and continue to kill those Evil Spirits!" Jianmu responded quietly, "For tens of thousands of years, generations of Celestials have died. So many of them, near the end of their lives, begged me to open the smaller Celestial Court, to let these old folks out before they died, so they could kill a few more Evil Spirits. But I refused them all, I needed to ensure safety and secrecy here..."

Li Changhe nodded slightly to show he understood; after all, no one knew the outside circumstances. If Annihilation discovered this place, the seed of Heavenly Court could be extinguished.

"Our hatred towards Evil Spirits has persisted for over ten thousand years, and now we finally can vent it. Naturally, we won’t continue to stay here," Jianmu stated.

"I thought you wanted to rebuild the Celestial Court?" Li Changhe cracked a smile, "In our world, there are still things from the Mythical Era, always longing to return to that time."

He was speaking now of the Norse myths, in Li Luoling’s Future Line.

The Norse mythology’s remnant divine beings returned to the human world and reopened the Mythical Era in the shadows.

The severance of mythologies, including those of the Heavenly Court, Norse, and Greek legends, was erased because of the great expedition of Annihilation.

Likewise facing Annihilation’s fleets, the whole Heavenly Court mobilized for a world-protection war, only leaving behind the remnants of the Heavenly Court as seeds.

Some mythological systems, however, moved quickly, which allowed them to preserve enough strength to thrive in other worlds.

Then, they picked a time when humans were down on their luck, came back for an easy gain, and restarted the Mythical Era.

"Other mythologies? You mean those Barbarians? Hahaha, Heavenly Court comes from the Human Race, so naturally, we fight for humanity. Without humans, there would be no Celestial Court. But they are from Different Races, so it’s not surprising they’d want to enslave humanity. We of the Celestial Court are not like them."

"Moreover, it’s no longer the Mythical Era. Your Xuanyuan Sword wielder, could it be, is still the king of your world’s Human Race?" Jianmu let out an ancient laugh, "And you, the current General, are you still called a daemon or Devil King?"

"Eh... yes," Li Changhe indeed was; he carried the title of the Seventh Devil King. Those Different Race divine beings had gotten used to calling Li Changhe the Seventh Devil King.

"My heroes could be others’ enemies. What of it?" Jianmu replied, "General, you’ve said so much, merely wanting to know our future plans. I too am concerned the younger generation might conflict with the current humans. If you could lend support, that would be most appreciated."

"Well, I happen to have a solution that can take care of Evil Spirits and merge nicely into the world," Li Changhe smiled, his expression somewhat sly.
