Chapter 286 One Year Later, the World Is in Chaos
One year later
The outline of Kuixing Island gradually became clear, and many of the Star Alliance disciples who had been on the expedition for almost a year were in tears.
"Going home!"
Someone muttered silently, and suddenly there was a noise.
The cruelty of war in the world of immortal cultivation is something that many people have never experienced. Even the island guard monks who are known for fighting with demon beasts and evil cultivators for many years, after surviving a series of battles, have deeply realized that the previous fighting and killing were completely minor fights, not to mention those monks who have been practicing hard for a long time and don't take risks.
On the fleet flagship, a group of senior officials also looked tired.
When they went there, they made rapid progress all the way and risked their lives. When they came back, they broke through all the way and bled profusely. It can be said that they were lucky to successfully leave the inner star island waters.
"Alliance leader, there is the latest news!"
A dusty Star Alliance spy landed on the deck, and the Star Alliance elders and senior officials were worried.
Xu Qingyang glanced at them and frowned slightly. The morale was not very good now. They had to cheer up quickly. There was still a long-lasting war waiting for them.
"Speak!"
The spy took a deep breath and reported the situation quickly.
On the day of the Tianxing City War, the two saints of Xinggong overwhelmed the leaders of the good and evil and implemented a strategic counter-encirclement. They broke through and escaped all the way. They didn't care about many news. They only knew that the coalition forces were defeated. Many of them were annihilated by Xinggong during the escape, so that now many people are pessimistic.
If the Anti-Star Alliance really collapsed, their Sun and Moon Star Alliance would not be able to escape the subsequent reckoning.
Xu Qingyang is actually not sure about the subsequent developments now, and it is impossible to use secret collusion with Xinggong to appease his subordinates. At this time, he also wants to know which direction the situation is heading.
The first half of the spy's report is generally pessimistic.
This time, the Xinggong responded very well. The Anti-Star Alliance suffered heavy losses. It is known that many Nascent Soul elders of the Anti-Star Alliance have died, and the number of Jindan cultivators who have been killed has exceeded 200. The number of Foundation Establishment cultivators who have been lost has exceeded 20,000 half a year ago. If it were not evenly distributed to the entire Anti-Star Alliance, it would sound scary.
As for the second half, everyone was relieved immediately.
"Alliance leader, elders, the Anti-Star Alliance has spread clear news. The Supreme Elder of the Righteous Wanfa Sect has returned to the sect. The same is true for the Holy Demon Island. Senior Six Paths Extreme Saint has successfully returned to the island!"
"Good, that's good!!"
An elder shouted repeatedly without caring about his image, blushing.
Xu Qingyang was secretly disappointed, but he did not stop it. For now, Wan Sangu and Six Paths Extreme Saint are the pillars of the Anti-Star Alliance. As long as they are still there, the Anti-Star Alliance will not be defeated.
"Two leaders, have you sent an order to the alliance?"
"No, but according to rumors, they were both seriously injured when they went against the island, and I'm afraid they won't be able to recover in a short time."
Hearing this, everyone was silent again, but Xu Qingyang laughed, and laughed loudly: "Elders, there is no need to sigh. The fact that they can escape back only proves that the two saints of the Star Palace are indeed unable to leave Tianxing City and have become zombies. The advantage is on me. The good days of the Sun and Moon Star Alliance are coming..."
Qiu Yun's eyes lit up, and Zhan Tai Qin Changqing was thoughtful.
People in the world have been afraid of the Star Palace for a long time, and they are afraid of the two saints of the Star Palace. Now the whole world knows that the two cannot leave the city and are unable to suppress the outside world. The deterrent power has greatly decreased, and people's hearts are bound to be restless.
In this way, a reshuffle of the world is inevitable, and ambitious people will jump out.
And the Anti-Star Alliance has set an example and is in the orthodox position. The forces that were previously wavering and unwilling to intervene will probably turn to the Anti-Star Alliance immediately. In this way, the previous losses of the Anti-Star Alliance are insignificant. Xu Qingyang was not laughing at this, but the current situation was exactly what he wanted to see.
At least the pressure from the six paths could be relieved a lot.
Without saying anything, Xu Qingyang's face became serious: "Everyone, since the overall situation is fine, you should cheer up immediately. What follows will be a long-lasting tug-of-war. Before that, you must prepare to receive the spoils."
Everyone present was a smart person. Once the overall situation stabilized, everyone's eyes lit up.
What was the purpose of contributing manpower and traveling thousands of miles to fight with the Star Palace? After returning to Kuixing Island safely, Xu Qingyang immediately called the Star Alliance to an enlarged meeting without mentioning trivial matters.
There were many losses this time, and each family was in mourning.
There were about 1,300 people who went out, and less than 800 came back. These were all the pillars of each family. But now is not the time to discuss injuries. Under Qiuyun's chairmanship, representatives from all parties reported the situation at home. After a final count, in the absence of external threats, they maintained a basic manpower to guard all parties. They again recruited 800 foundation-building disciples to the maximum extent. In addition to the survivors, excluding the injured who needed to recover, they could reorganize 1,500 foundation-building disciples.
The next action is not considered an expedition, and the Qi training cultivators must also be fully mobilized.
"Report to the leader, we have recently built more than 200 low-level warships, and a total of 300 existing and compulsory requisitioned ships, which can transport 30,000 Qi training monks to the sea at a time!"
"Report to the island master, the number of registered monks has reached 230,000"
"Report to the island master, various logistical materials are being allocated in an orderly manner, and the first batch of combat supplies will be available in half a month at most..."
No one sang a different tune, but instead they were counting their assets one by one, talking quickly, and wishing to take out everything they could, because next, they really just accepted the spoils of war, but this spoils of war, they need to take it by themselves, and there may be a lot of resistance, but no one cares about this.
The three islands are full of martial virtues, so why fear the meat on the chopping board.
Xu Qingyang couldn't help but think of the chaos after the defeat of Yue State, when they were all meat on the chopping board.
As he thought about it, a smile appeared on his lips again, and the others also smiled, and then he heard him say: "Make full preparations, and then wait for the news of the Anti-Star Alliance..."
The news of the Anti-Star Alliance came very quickly.
Now the Anti-Star Alliance has suffered heavy casualties, low morale, and people's hearts are boiling.
At this time, any big talk is bullshit, even winning over neutral forces and restoring the strength of the alliance is bullshit. Except for those Yuanying forces that cannot be moved lightly, most of the others are not within the scope of winning over. The best way to appease people's hearts and rebuild morale is to find blood. In less than half a month, just after the wind season, the General Alliance issued the second crusade order to crusade against the forces in the Chaos Star Sea that have their hearts set on the Star Palace and have not yet surrendered. As a quasi-first-class affiliated force, the Sun and Moon Star Alliance obtains independent conquest rights.
To put it simply, it is to be assigned a certain range and plunder freely.
After having the envoys of the general alliance treated well, Xu Qingyang immediately convened a general mobilization to discuss the attack plan.
The area they were assigned was all in the surrounding sea area. In principle, each of them would eat their own piece, but if they really fought, it would depend on who was faster. They would just rob and run, and they would not care about so much.
The monks of the three islands had long been hungry and thirsty, like an arrow on a string.
They could only advance, not retreat.
Xu Qingyang did not delay for a day. As soon as he received the order, the first batch of troops had already set off. Behind them, there were monks from the island who signed up enthusiastically. They emptied their storage bags one by one, and took all the storage bags they could carry, so that the price of storage bags on the island kept rising, and there was no market for them.
The leader of the alliance ordered that the sword would not be put away for two years.
The floating wealth would be divided equally, and the industrial resources would be returned to the public. The treasures and important resources would be distributed according to merits. The excellent spiritual roots of mortals would be plundered. Those with the most merits would be counted as great merits, and the benefits would be countless.
The organized, called, longest, and largest-scale looting operation in the Chaos Star Sea began from then on.
This wave of reshuffles completely kicked off the melee.
Those who can seize the opportunity to eat their fill in this turmoil will see their foundation soar wildly and become unstoppable. The weak will be eliminated, and the strong will become stronger. Just take the Three Islands Star Alliance as an example. More than 200,000 Qi training monks have come out one after another, like locusts passing through, covering the sky and the earth. It is hard to say whether they can survive, but those who can survive can grab back resources, and their future potential is limitless.
