Chapter 361: The Wind Rises
The war between the Anti-Star Alliance and the Star Palace came faster than Ye Sen imagined, and according to the information sent back by Miaoyinmen, Ye Sen learned that less than a month after its establishment, the Anti-Star Alliance officially began to move!
Of course, at the beginning, the Anti-Star Alliance did not directly attack the inner islands directly under the Star City or the Star Palace as soon as it came up, but took the lead in cleaning up those small affiliated forces that were not firm in their will and inclined to the Star Palace. {with}{dream} щ{suimеng][lā}
In the face of the powerful offensive of the two realms of righteousness and demons, these weak middle and lower-level small forces naturally couldn't resist it, so they began to ask the Star Palace for help.
After receiving the information asking for help, the Star Palace also reacted extremely quickly, and immediately dispatched two Star Palace elders in the middle of the Yuan Infant Stage, with a large number of Star Palace disciples, to quickly rush to the location of the incident.
However, before this group of reinforcements arrived at the predetermined location, they were ambushed by the two righteous demons who had learned the news in advance on the way, and the two Star Palace elders were killed on the spot, and the remaining nearly 100 disciples of the Jiedan were also slaughtered one after another, and the losses could be described as extremely heavy.
Naturally, the Star Palace was extremely annoyed, but unexpectedly, the Star Palace did not continue to send more men to fight the Reverse Star Alliance, but began to shrink the defense line very abnormally, putting on a posture of strict defense.
In this way, it will undoubtedly confirm the rumor that the Celestial Star Twin Saints, who had been widely circulated in the Chaotic Star Sea before, could not leave the Celestial Star City because of the cultivation of the Yuan Magnetic Divine Light, so after losing the last scruples, the actions of the Anti-Star Alliance inevitably became more and more unscrupulous.
Under the large-scale attack of the Anti-Star Alliance, the first to suffer were the many outer islands that originally belonged to the Star Palace. These outer islands were originally the peripheral forces of the Star Palace, and their owners were even produced through the "Star Picking Conference" competition, so the loyalty to the Star Palace was naturally not very high.
Under strong pressure, the island owners, who did not have much control over the outer islands, gave up their resistance one after another and chose to surrender to the Anti-Star Alliance! Even occasionally one or two outer island owners who were close to the Star Palace abandoned the island and fled under the orders of the Star Palace.
As a result, in less than a year, almost all of the outer islands changed hands. As a result, the Star Palace completely lost its control over the situation in the Chaotic Star Sea, and all the forces retreated to the waters around the inner island with Sky Star City as the core.
After occupying the outer islands and gathering a large number of small and medium-sized forces, the power of the Anti-Star Alliance has risen sharply, as if it has surpassed the Star Palace, which has dominated the Chaotic Star Sea for thousands of years, and has become the largest force in the Chaotic Star Sea.
After that, the two leaders of the Anti-Star Alliance, Wan Sangu and the Six Dao Extreme Saints, began to quickly integrate their forces, and it only took less than half a year to launch a new round of offensive against the Star Palace.
This time, though, their luck wasn't as good as before. As the saying goes, "a skinny camel is bigger than a horse", the Star Palace has dominated the chaotic Star Sea for nearly 10,000 years, and the inner island is the direct sphere of influence of the Star Palace, and the people stationed on the island are all real Star Palace disciples, with strong forces and firm wills, far from being comparable to those peripheral forces.
Therefore, when the two sides collided head-on, the originally confident Anti-Star Alliance immediately ran into a bloody battle, and after one battle, not only failed to occupy any island, but lost a large number of backbones, and morale fell to the bottom all of a sudden.
Suffering such a fiasco, not to mention those small and medium-sized forces who had newly taken refuge, even the righteous and demonic monks of the Anti-Star Alliance itself began to have deep doubts about whether they could defeat the behemoth of the Star Palace. After all, the influence of the Star Palace is there, and not everyone is as clear about the Star Palace's internal affairs as those old monsters.
Moreover, if it weren't for the fact that the Star Palace had always only defended and had not carried out a single counterattack, the Anti-Star Alliance would probably face a great danger of collapse.
However, to add insult to injury, the demon cultivators in the outer sea immediately began to stir after seeing an unprecedented civil war break out in the Inner Star Sea. One after another, they began to send low-level demon beasts to harass the islands around the Outer Star Sea, and constantly began to test the reaction of the Anti-Star Alliance and the Star Palace.
Since the Star Palace has retreated to the core area of the Inland Sea, most of the islands around the Inner Star Sea have been occupied by the Anti-Star Alliance. In this way, if the Outer Sea Demon Cultivator were to invade on a large scale, the Anti-Star Alliance would undoubtedly bear the brunt of all the pressure.
In this situation of internal and external troubles, Wan Sangu and the Six Dao Extreme Saints had to suspend their offensive against the Star Palace, and instead began to integrate their internal forces and guard against the attack of the Outer Sea Demon Cultivator.
However, no matter how lively the fight between the Anti-Star Alliance and the Star Palace was, it still failed to affect Ye Sen. And at this time, Ye Sen didn't want to participate in the battle between the Anti-Star Alliance and the Star Palace for the time being, so as soon as the war began, he announced that the Polar Yin Island would be completely closed and all foreign forces would be prohibited from entering.
Moreover, in order to avoid the invasion of Jiyin Island, Ye Sen also sent Xiao Fox and Nangong Wan, two Yuanying monks, to lead a team to take turns to lead people to patrol around Jiyin Island to strictly prevent all possible accidents, and also asked Qi Yunxiao and Xin Ruyin to arrange a large number of formation prohibitions inside and outside the island, making the entire Jiyin Island like an iron bucket.
At the same time, Ye Sen did not forget to continue to supervise and improve the strength of his disciples and subordinates, due to the last trip to the Void Heaven Palace, Ye Sen and the others had gained a lot, plus they had all the family funds accumulated by the Extreme Yin Patriarch for hundreds of years. Therefore, the scale of resources held by Ye Sen and others is undoubtedly extremely huge.
For these subordinates who have been tested and have no signs of betrayal, Ye Sen will naturally not be stingy, and most of the things that he can't use will be distributed to Zi Ling, Yuan Yao and others.
Under the accumulation of massive resources, everyone's cultivation has ushered in a rapid progress, and in just three or five years, it has jumped from the early stage of the knot to the middle and late stage of the knot. Ye Sen believed that if they were given another period of time, with the qualifications of the Purple Spirit Fairy and Yuan Yao and others, they might not be able to advance to Yuan Ying cultivation before the decisive battle between the Reverse Star Alliance and the Star Palace.
However, as time goes by, the scope of the war between the Anti-Star Alliance and the Star Palace has become wider and wider, and there are more and more forces involved in it.
Finally, one day, the arrival of a group of people still broke the peace of Extreme Yin Island, so that Ye Sen had to officially face a choice, and began to consider whether he should intervene in this war that would decide the fate of the Chaotic Star Sea now.
