The Shining Star Above The Heaven-Chapter 1037: First Victory

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The sound of many explosions shook the land and awakened the leader of the devils in this place. He opened his eyes quickly and instantly spread his spiritual sense to the maximum to see what was going on.

As his spiritual sense spread to its limit, he could sense everything, and he was truly shocked by what he sensed. The devils’ camp was under attack, with a large part of the camp wiped out.

The forest they used to build the camp was flattened, killing many of his troops, and even the mountains were not spared from destruction.

The mountains were collapsing, making rumbling sounds and trembling the land, burying everything under them, including many devils stationed there.

With the chaos and destruction everywhere, thousands of devils were already dead without any resistance. The leader could sense the remnants of strong energy and sword will that even made his spiritual sense tremble across the place full of destruction.

Half of his camp had already been destroyed in this attack, which was a truly devastating blow.

The leader’s expression turned furious as he instantly got up with his naked body. The woman had also already woken up, and she followed her lord.

A devil panic-stricken entered the tent and instantly knelt.

"My lord! We are under attack! There are already many casualties on our side!" he said hurriedly.

"I know. I already sensed it. Spread the word to all commanders to create defensive formations. Do not leave their posts and fight any attacker who tries to advance in our direction," the leader said.

"Yes, my lord," the man said before he ran outside.

The leader was already wearing his clothes using his energy, as it was much faster for now. His eyes were glistening and he gritted his teeth at the sudden attack. Why were they suddenly under attack?

Didn’t the spies’ report say that the attack would happen tonight? How could the spies not report anything regarding this? Even if there was a surprise attack, how could those bastards bypass his camp’s traps and defensive formations so easily?

But then, after sensing the remnants of powerful energy, as if many peak pseudo immortal stage cultivators were attacking at the same time in various places, he did not find it surprising. They must have used brute force to destroy all the formations he prepared.

But it made him question how they knew his formations’ locations. Why did the scouts spread between their base and his base not give any sign of the enemy’s arrival?

He did not think further as he decided to repel the attack first and think about other things later. He flew into the still dark sky, as the sun had not yet appeared on the eastern horizon. He looked into the distance and saw that the alliance force, with the strength of tens of thousands of troops, was advancing toward his direction at great speed.

They did not have time for any preparation at all, as the enemy troops were already reaching their camp.

"Kill those bastards! Don’t let any of them live!" one of the alliance force’s commanders shouted.

"UWOOO!"

The troops of the alliance force that arrived first instantly fell into action and began killing. The devils, still disoriented and unprepared, fell into chaos and panic as the alliance troops entered the camp.

The leader of the devils saw his peer, General Zordan, among them, and the general flew toward his direction. He gritted his teeth as he took out a halberd from his storage ring and dashed toward General Zordan.

Zordan, seeing his target, smiled as he swept his sword toward the leader of the devils.

TRANG!

The loud sound of the clash between halberd and sword resounded in the sky, creating a strong gust of wind that spread across the mountain region.

"You bastard!" the devils’ leader shouted as he pushed the halberd hard to make Zordan fall back. However, Zordan also pushed with the same strength and smiled at him.

"How is it, Redik? How is my surprise for you? Do you like it?" Zordan said in a mocking tone, which made the devil leader named Redik even more furious.

"Aarrhhh!" he roared as he pushed Zordan away and blasted out a strong aura, which made Zordan take some distance.

"You must have really trusted those spies, to think that you fell for the trick of false information," Zordan said as he prepared to unleash his technique.

Hearing Zordan, Redik widened his eyes in astonishment. False information? Did that mean his spies betrayed him?

No, that was impossible. Those spies were special individuals who had extreme loyalty to the Devil God and were ready to die for their mission. They would commit suicide instead of thinking of betrayal.

Then was it because those spies got caught and their memories had been searched? But those spies had seals inside their minds that would instantly kill them if there was even a little foreign energy that touched them.

He could not think much further as Zordan had already unleashed his technique, slashing his sword repeatedly, which made him defend.

Below their battle, the woman who had just slept with Redik was also fighting against Kuartin. The battle of the Immortal Transition Realm destroyed everything in their surroundings, so the camp that was already in chaos fell into even more chaos, destroying more of the camp and killing many of the unprepared devils.

Because the devils had already lost most of their troops and the alliance force came in overwhelming numbers, the devils could not give much resistance. They were killed by the combined attacks of many alliance troops.

Some of the devils tried to escape, but they were killed before they could move far by the slash energy that came from the sword of a figure.

The figure was like a killing machine that could not be stopped. He just flew slowly, but each time he slashed with his sword, it claimed many devils. His movements seemed simple but fast, and that was enough to kill every devil near him.

"Stop that bastard! Anyone!"

"Attack him together!"

Many devils tried to attack the figure, but he did not seem to care and kept slashing and slashing, destroying and destroying. All resistance was futile. All power was meaningless.

Even one of the high-ranking commanders of the devils at the low pseudo-immortal stage tried to kill the figure.

"Die!" the devil shouted as he unleashed his flame technique through his palm. The flame was so intense and powerful, with a vast area of effect, as if it tried to burn the entire forest. But the figure only stopped for a moment before he also unleashed his own technique.

The moment he unleashed his slash technique, the flame split, and the devil who unleashed it split as well, which truly shocked him. The last thing he saw was the figure’s red hair and calm blue eyes before he died, his body slashed a few more times.

The alliance troops who saw Aldrian, who seemed unstoppable, felt their hearts tremble. No one could go near him. Not even a technique could affect his clothes. He cut down everything in his path.

And then they finally saw Aldrian unleashing his technique again. They felt something from the high sky beyond the clouds, and a split second later, they saw a rain of swords, which made them shocked and run away to evade the rain of swords’ destructive reach.

That was because this technique could even kill peak pseudo immortal stage cultivators easily!

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The battlefield truly fell into chaos, which made some battles stop as they looked in Aldrian’s direction.

The technique just now was truly powerful!

Even Redik and Zordan were slightly distracted and looked in Aldrian’s direction for a split moment, and Aldrian’s surroundings had already turned into a carnage area.

There were no living beings there, only the remnants of devils surrounded by powerful sword will.

Redik, who clearly sensed the powerful energy and sword will, realized that this man must be the one who caused his camp’s destruction earlier. He was the one who first attacked the camp.

Zordan took advantage of Redik being distracted and attacked him.

"Bastard!" Redik roared as he almost suffered a fatal injury to his chest, if not for blocking the sword attack by a small margin.

But before he could think further, he felt something from behind him, and it was already too late for him to react.

A sword suddenly pierced his chest from behind, which made him widen his eyes. He looked at Zordan in front of him, and suddenly Zordan’s figure dissipated as if it were only an illusion.

’Shit, I was careless. In that split second, I already fell into his illusion technique.’

That split second moment was already enough to decide the result of the battle. Redik, distracted by Aldrian’s technique, fell into a simple trick, and it sealed his fate.

"Go to hell," Zordan said as he moved the sword upward, splitting Redik from chest to head.

Redik, who had been Zordan’s headache for years, finally died by his hand.

Zordan smirked and shouted,

"The enemy’s leader has been killed! Kill the rest of the devils!"

"UWOO!"

The morale of the alliance force soared, and the opposite happened to the devils. Their morale collapsed, and most tried to escape or commit suicide by blowing themselves up.

However, Aldrian did not allow them to. With his precise control, he killed them using sword’s slash or his space laws.

It did not take long for the alliance force to take care of the rest of the devils.

After making sure that there were no living devils left, Zordan lifted his sword.

"We win!"

"WOOO!" All the troops shouted in victory, and their voices could be heard far and wide.

This was their first victory in their counterattack to take back all of their lost territory.
