The Shining Star Above The Heaven-Chapter 879: The Change in the Queen?

On the next day, not long after the sun rose from the horizon, the alliance troops had already departed for their next targets to conquer. Three interstellar vessels flew in formation, passing through many terrains of the world.

Their targets were a big city and two devil fortresses near the city, which would be quite challenging if they attacked without a plan or without working together. The city was the most important place in this region, and once it was conquered, the devils would lose all of their influence here.

Aldrian was inside the control room of the vessel with Baek Jimin and Xin Haotian. Baek Jimin already looked fit despite Aldrian pounding her almost the entire night. In fact, before they departed, Baek Jimin could not even move an inch because of how tired she felt. Aldrian was truly like a sex machine who almost did not stop.

Thanks to his golden energy, she could quickly return to her prime condition. At first, she sulked because Aldrian had really tortured her with pleasure to the point where she thought she might actually die. She even started to think that if Aldrian made a long journey and she followed him, she would have to ask Sylphia to follow as well. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝔀𝓮𝒃𝙣𝓸𝒗𝒆𝒍.𝙘𝒐𝒎

There was no way she could withstand his lust alone. She needed another woman to share the pleasure.

However, from their sex, Baek Jimin did not only receive fatigue and pleasure but also another great benefit. Thanks to their sex, which sometimes slipped into dual cultivation, her cultivation rose to the middle marquess stage and was even nearing the high marquess stage. If they dual cultivated again, she would undoubtedly make another breakthrough.

As they continued moving toward their destination, they finally saw their targets in the distance. One of the fortresses near the city could be seen with its high wall. Once the alliance forces saw this, one of the interstellar vessels spread out toward the other fortress located on the opposite side of the city.

They would launch simultaneous attacks toward the three locations at the same time. For Aldrian, he would attack the city directly while the two fortresses would be attacked by the forces from the Cerdian Kingdom.

Queen Revania agreed with Aldrian's arrangement because she knew Aldrian was capable of carrying out anything he suggested himself. To quicken the battle, he would also help destroy the barrier that protected the fortress.

Aldrian did not waste any time. The moment his vessel neared the fortress, Aldrian stepped out of the vessel, took out a sword, and used Pillar of Heaven's Judgment to destroy the barrier. The devils seemed to be expecting their arrival, so they were already in position to defend themselves.However, the moment they saw the pillar of golden light rise into the sky and fall upon them, chaos spread. The barrier shattered, leaving them vulnerable to attack.

The troops from the Cerdian Kingdom who saw it were truly amazed, as the barrier that was extremely difficult to break was destroyed just like that. Queen Revania that also watched Aldrian in action once more, her eyes glimmered. No one knew what was going through her mind at that moment.

After destroying the barrier, Aldrian and his troops did not stop, and the vessel continued flying past the fortress toward the city in the distance. The city's defensive wall could already be seen, stretching across the horizon.

When they arrived, they saw the damaged and dilapidated city, although there were many devil movements inside. Its size was roughly the same as the headquarters they attacked for the first time.

The vessel then stopped not far from the city before the troops disembarked to create their formation. Aldrian floated as he observed the vast city. The barrier had already been erected, and he could not help but remain amazed at how extravagant the devils were with their resource expenditure. They covered so many places, even a city as large as this one, with barriers of the same quality.

He saw the devils forming their own defensive formations on the defensive wall and inside the city. Bells rang across the city to warn of the incoming invasion, and Aldrian's focus turned toward the strongest devils he could sense there.

Behind enemy lines, he saw a male devil with black hair, and this one was actually a pure human. The devil had cultivation at peak pseudo immortal stage, which was rare given the current condition of the devils in this world. He was one of few peak pseudo immortal stage experts left after many had left for the central star cluster.

There were also a few other pseudo immortal devils in the city, which did not surprise Aldrian because this was one of the most important cities for the devils. Looking at the composition of the enemies, Aldrian knew he had to take this more seriously if he did not want any casualties among his troops.

He then started by creating his domain while the devils looked in his direction with wary expressions. The strongest devil here stared at Aldrian. He had received information from many places that they were losing ground, and it was only a matter of time before the enemies arrived right at their gate.

He had also heard about a strong enemy who could destroy barriers easily, and now he finally saw him with his own eyes when Aldrian destroyed the fortress's barrier. The strong enemy was likely a pseudo immortal stage cultivator, but what he sensed from Aldrian was only pseudo immortal establishment stage.

This made the leader confused, but he did not dwell on it any further. The most important thing now was to defend the city.

Aldrian, after finishing the creation of his domain, looked toward the strongest devil and all of the devils' higher-ups. Their numbers were quite many, and he had to kill them fast so that his troops could begin their attack. The devils might escape, but at the very least, it would lessen the danger for his troops.

To kill many of the devils in one sweep, he knew he had to use a large-scale technique like Swords Apocalypse. He was not sure if there would be any devils left for his troops to battle if he used Swords Apocalypse, but that was far better than letting his men die.

As he prepared to create countless swords, he heard a rumbling sound and commotion behind him.

The commotion came from the fortress behind, where the forces from the Cerdian Kingdom besieged it. Queen Revania was with this force, and at this moment, she unleashed one of her techniques.

The sky above the fortress darkened, and the overcast almost reached the city. The rumbling of thunder echoed across the sky, with strands of lightning appearing here and there. Rain began to fall in the fortress, but the rain was actually sharp, hard, thin ice. The size of the ice shards was like needles, and they easily pierced anything below.

Many devils tried to defend themselves using nearby structures and their defensive techniques, but the needles pierced through and killed many of them. The only ones who could truly defend against it were devils at the pseudo immortal establishment stage and above. They were forced to protect the other devils who did not have the power to stop the attack.

The situation worsened when a strong tornado formed, accompanied by lightning, and it wreaked havoc throughout the fortress, destroying buildings. The wind turned sharp like blades, and lightning storms struck random places below. Anything that happened to be caught in the lightning turned to ashes.

"Retreat to the city, retreat to the city!"

"Nooo!"

The devils in the fortress did not stand a chance against the queen. She did not seem to hesitate as she unleashed one of her most powerful mass destruction techniques. From the looks of it, she might even be able to annihilate the entire fortress by herself if she wanted to.

Her troops even felt a shudder in their hearts as they watched their queen like that. She seemed different from usual, unleashing a technique that consumed a large amount of her energy right at the beginning of the battle. They wondered what had happened to their queen for her to change her approach in battle.

But on the other hand, from this alone, everyone could see how vulnerable these devil strongholds were against the invasion of a peak pseudo immortal stage cultivator if they did not have any barrier protecting them.

Aldrian nodded to himself, seeing that there was no problem with Queen Revania's presence. Now he needed to do his part.

In the atmosphere where his domain still reached, he had already shaped countless swords, all pointed at the city. He created the swords in the upper atmosphere so as not to alert the devils inside the city, minimizing their chance to escape. The devils did not realize that at this moment, high in the atmosphere, countless swords were already aimed at them.

The devils still watched his direction warily, preparing for any technique he might release.

As they kept their focus on him, they finally sensed something from the sky, and they could not help but feel shocked as the rain of swords suddenly descended upon the city. The strongest devil felt his heart tremble after sensing the rain of swords that finally reached the barrier.

It did not even take two seconds before the barrier collapsed and the apocalypse swept through the city.
