The Great Wu Dynasty''s army approached the Sea Demon Realm with a menacing aura, clearly indicating that they were here for aggressive purposes.


    Naturally, this incited the Sea Demon Realm''s rejection.


    It had always been them who invaded and plundered the Early Chen Realm; when had they ever let foreign forces enter their territory?


    Moreover, they had noticed that the Great Wu Dynasty was not planning to leave so easily this time.


    They built fortified cities and stationed their military there, obviously intending to push the front lines into the Sea Demon Realm.


    "We received intelligence that the Sha Ling Imperial Dynasty led the deployment of their army first, with many demon sects responding.


    A large number of formidable figures are gathering and heading towards Blood Shadow City, shouting slogans to annihilate the Great Wu army in the Sea Demon Realm and invade the Great Wu territory to divide its wealth amongst themselves," The Sect Master of the Blood Shadow informed Chu Yuan.


    "Sounds like they moved in quickly."


    Chu Yuan was fully aware that the Great Wu Dynasty had to fight a major battle if they wanted to establish a foothold in the Sea Demon Realm. This battle involved even more formidable foes than those they encountered when they were eradicating the Xuan Zun Imperial Dynasty, for they were facing True Gods across the realm.


    "The army gathers in Blood Shadow City to fight against the Alliance of Demons!"


    Chu Yuan remained calm; the troops of a nation should not be complacent. They have to experience countless battles to forge an unbeatable army.


    Alliance of Demons.


    This time it was led by the Sha Ling Dynasty. Apart from deploying their own warriors, many more strong forces have joined them.


    This is the way the Sea Demon Realm operates - as soon as they see a benefit they can take, they swarm in, gathering en masse.


    "General, the Great Wu Dynasty is not easy to fight against. They''ve managed to conquer the Blood Shadow Demon Sect with a thunderous approach, and in a short period of time, dispatched a large army into the Sea Demon Realm.


    This just shows how domineering and decisive the Martial Emperor is; he clearly wants to put his hand into the Sea Demon Realm," A soldier of the Sha Ling Dynasty warned, mentioning the renowned and feared Martial Emperor.


    The Sha Ling Dynasty, one of the ten Imperial Dynasties of the Sea Demon Realm, was much more powerful than the Xuan Zun Dynasty.


    The leader of their army was a middle-aged man with a gloomy expression named Yu Cheng, one of the five generals of the Sha Ling Dynasty. He brought many skilled warriors from the Sha Ling Dynasty for this mission.


    "The Great Wu is difficult to fight against, but the location of Blood Shadow City is crucial. If they secure that position, they can easily move in and out. It will be difficult for us to enter the Great Wu territory, a land full of enticing treasures that we want," another soldier mentioned.


    With a solemn expression, Yu Cheng responded: "Indeed. This time, by intruding the Sea Demon Realm and establishing their forces, they have provoked the anger of many people. Regardless of their intentions, having them test the firepower of Great Wu is a good idea."


    "Should the equipment of Great Wu fall into Sha Ling''s hands, our national strength would increase several times!" another commander pointed out.


    The messenger withdrew.


    "What! Who exactly is this Martial Emperor who even has managed to open a battlefield within the Sea Demon Realm!"


    The other Imperial Dynasties in the Early Chen Realm were shocked upon receiving the news.


    The Martial Emperor is indeed domineering and ambitious. They never even considered waging war against the Sea Demon Realm, yet the Martial Emperor is unabated, initiating attacks within the Sea Demon Realm itself.


    "Dispatch people to the Sea Demon Realm immediately. I want to get the latest news from this battle!"


    ...


    Although the war is not targeted at the Early Chen Realm, its impact was still alarming, prompting the realm to quickly dispatch special emissaries.


    On Chu Yuan''s side, upon receiving the news of the Sha Ling Dynasty''s military action, he adopted a leisurely approach. He sat tight in Blood Shadow City, fortified the Bombardment Battle Positions to show them the power of the Great Wu''s cannons.


    The forces of the Sea Demon Realm were also marching on.


    One or two forces were naturally afraid to make a move on Great Wu, but the more the merrier. When they had strength in numbers, they were no longer afraid of Great Wu. Each one of them wanted to benefit from the chaos.


    The Sha Ling Dynasty took advantage of this by launching an attack. Ostensibly, it was to drive the Great Wu out of the Sea Demon Realm, but in reality, they coveted the equipment of Great Wu. They wanted to exploit this battle to crush Great Wu and snatch some equipment that was not available in the Sea Demon Realm.


    Even if they didn''t succeed in this battle, there would still be a lot of cannon fodder to consume.


    If the Great Wu Dynasty proved to be too powerful, the Sha Ling Dynasty had already considered it. If one family couldn''t defeat them, they could contact the other nine Dynasties in Sea Demon Realm. They can all amass their forces together and divide the spoils of war once victory is theirs.


    Several months passed


    Frightful Demonic Qi surged forth.


    The bright sky had darkened at this moment, contrasting starkly with the glittering city of Great Wu,


    "Your Majesty, the Alliance of Demon troops are here!"


    Atop the city wall, Lu Qian looked at the formidable figures from the Sea Demon Realm on the opposite side.


    "I see them. Order the army to go to war. You will still command this time. The aim is to get the different armies to collaborate, particularly since we have the newly formed Demon God Army now. They need to learn to coordinate with the Divine Army, exerting the might of Divine and Demon forces. Those who just joined the army need to adapt to battlefield combat.


    Military confrontation is not about reckless bravery, but about mastering the coordination of large-scale armies, knowing when to attack and retreat, and maximizing the advantages of the large-scale army," Chu Yuan stood with hands behind his back, emitting immortal light from the Human Dao River, blessing the Great Wu Army with war haloes.


    In this Sea Demon World, he would personally usher in a new era!
