MTLNOVEL Chapter 168 Destruction_2
Nine Cauldrons Sect!
The military power of a single domain actually pushed them to such an extent!
Although the Nine Heavens Domain faces the Eastern Sea and always has a strong garrison, and recently, with the turbulence in the Eastern Sea, even more forces were stationed there, it's just...
It has always been the Limitless Star Palace attacking others, who would dare to strike at the Limitless Star Palace!?
Nine Cauldrons Sect, has the world turned upside down!?
"Counterattack! Counterattack!"
Qiao Man's orders were instantly conveyed to every cultivator on the warship.
"They have only managed a surprise attack on us just now; our Limitless Star Palace's Patrol Heaven Warships are unbeatable. Give me your full strength in the counterattack, destroy this city!"
As the commands were issued, the cultivators of the Limitless Star Palace also quickly sprang into action.
Compared to the Nine Cauldrons Sect, the cultivators of the Limitless Star Palace not only had an advantage in cultivation but also in equipment.
Even though they were actually outnumbered by the Nine Cauldrons Sect at the moment, the combat power they could unleash was still enough to erase any small sect, or even a medium-sized sect from the Cangwu Great World.
The Patrol Heaven Warships of the Limitless Star Palace reacted quickly, and Alkaid's attacks were no slower.
Without waiting for each sword cultivator's lifebound flying sword to return, he swiftly took control of the second Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation Sword Formation and led the divine cultivators and technique cultivators in launching a second round of assault.
Accompanied by a furious Divine Sense Storm and a huge sword carrying dazzling thunder streaking across the sky, the second clash erupted once more in the void three hundred miles away.
This time, even though the Patrol Heaven Warships of the Limitless Star Palace were prepared and exhibited their full combat strength, they still couldn't withstand the first onslaught of Divine Sense confrontation.
At most...
It was just not as utterly disastrous as the first time.
When the great swords formed by the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation Sword Formation rolled over and arrived, the sword arrays on the Patrol Heaven Warships were shattered, one after another lifebound flying sword was shredded, and the afterglow of the huge swords still heavily bombarded the hulls of the Patrol Heaven Warships, breaking through two more layers of formation.
Soon after the second round of attacks arrived, a third round of attacks quickly commenced.

And just like before, it defeated one layer of formation on the Patrol Heaven Warship with relative superiority.
At this rate, they might wear down this batch of sword and technique cultivators to death, but their own...
Outcome would be no better.
Don't forget, they are now on the Nine Cauldrons Sect's turf.
And the forces from the neighboring domains of the Nine Cauldrons Sect are still rushing over at full speed.
Once they severely weaken themselves fighting right under the Dragon Majestic City and other domains' forces surround them...
"Damn it!"
This moment, Qiao Man finally felt a chill in his heart.
"We have been tricked!"
The previous display of weakness by the Nine Cauldrons Sect was to lull them into complacency and draw them deep into the Nine Cauldrons Sect's territory for a group attack.
Otherwise, there is no way to explain why there is such a huge gap in strength they have shown before and after!
Thinking of the consequences he would face if he were defeated here...
Qiao Man clenched his teeth.
"We can't keep fighting, otherwise... all of us will have to explain ourselves here! Even if we really want to fight, we should at least call for another three to five Patrol Heaven Warships and form a fleet..."
His Divine Sense flowed, quickly turning into orders that spread to every corner of the warship.
"Retreat! Retreat!"
This command made some of the great cultivators on the warship reluctant.
How could the invincible Limitless Star Palace retreat!?
Defeated by the insignificant strength of the Nine Cauldrons Sect within a single domain!?
But there were also some great cultivators who secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Clearly, they too understood that trying to annihilate the mighty Nine Cauldrons Sect with just one Patrol Heaven Warship was somewhat unrealistic.
They could only...
Wait for the future, gather more Patrol Heaven Warships, and then avenge this humiliation.
Amidst the disturbance, Captain Qiao Man's orders were eventually carried out.
The huge body of the Patrol Heaven Warship gradually turned around, fleeing towards the direction of the Eastern Sea in a somewhat panicked fashion.
Upon witnessing this scene, the cultivators within Dragon Majestic City were momentarily stunned.
Immediately after, an unstoppable cheer burst forth in the divine sense and perceptions of everyone present.
"They're retreating! They're retreating! They've pulled back!"
"We've won! We've repelled the Patrol Heaven Warship from the Limitless Star Palace! We've won!"
"Hahaha, all enemies are but paper tigers, victory will ultimately be ours!"
Everyone, whether it was Zhao He, Qin Yi, including Fang Jie, Xu Kong, Luo Yunhai, and others, couldn't help but show joy and surprise on their faces.
At that moment, the clouds of despair and suffocation that had loomed over everyone's heads dissipated rapidly, and all could not help but feel the joy of having escaped disaster.
...
The hastily retreating Qiao Man seemed to feel the joy emanating from the direction of Dragon Majestic City, and his face turned incomparably dark.
"Shame! Shame! This is an utter humiliation!"
Dangerous ferocity flickered in his eyes.
The Patrol Heaven Warship of the Limitless Star Palace, to be repelled by the mere Nine Cauldrons Sect...
He had almost anticipated what would await him upon his return to the sect.
"A bunch of Artifact Sect's buffoons! Why didn't they just die along with the destruction of Artifact Sect!? These remnants deserve to die! All of them deserve to die!"
His gaze then shifted and settled on another part of the Nine Heavens Domain map.
"They relied on Dragon Majestic City's Sixth Level Formation to barely withstand our Patrol Heaven Warship, but... our warship can move, their city, surely, cannot, can it?"
Qiao Man focused on one location: "Moreover, all their Great Cultivators have gathered in Dragon Majestic City, meaning that the defense forces of the other cities are empty, including their so-called capital – Nine Heavens City. Now tell me... if at this moment we change course and charge full speed at Nine Heavens City, what will happen?"
The vice-captain, upon hearing what Qiao Man said, was briefly taken aback.
Charge at Nine Heavens City?
Their target had been Dragon Majestic City.
Attacking Nine Heavens City seemed to serve no great purpose aside from venting anger...
However, after sneaking a glance at the captain whose ferocity was laid bare, he wisely chose not to object: "Nine Heavens City absolutely will not withstand an attack from our Patrol Heaven Warship."
"Then what are we waiting for?"
Qiao Man let out a cold laugh, opened his mouth as if to say something.
But just at that moment, an urgent alarm suddenly resounded throughout the warship.
"Dudu dudu!"
On the main screen, a vivid red warning indicator was frantically flashing.
"Attack approaching! Attack approaching! Origin: Above the Nine Heavens, energy level — Eighth Level."
The previously fierce-looking Qiao Man briefly froze.
"Above the Nine Heavens!? Eighth energy level!?"
In the next instant, an unprecedented chill enveloped every corner of his body.
He abruptly looked up, his divine perception scanning the heavens, only to see the atmosphere above as if a sun was falling, coloring all the clouds in a fiery red!
In an instant...
Qiao Man roared.
"Golden Core attack!"
A massive Divine Sense Storm spread over the entire warship!
"Abandon ship!"
...
In less than a breath.
The fiery glow that dyed the sky red pierced through the atmosphere, like a star-destroying cannon fired from outer space, striking the swiftly moving Patrol Heaven Warship with precision!
Without a sound...
A massive fireball burst forth, shining as brightly as the sun, swallowing the entire Patrol Heaven Warship in its light.
