Chapter 151: Hanging a Sword on the Door
lling to risk their lives for you. Go and choose your team. Anyone is welcome.""I can't choose anything like this." Jiang Wang said, "I need to see them fight.""This is no performance, nor a game. Onc...Many have heard that Penglai Island, one of the three sacred lands of Taoism, is located overseas. But no one knows the true location of Penglai Island. Only generation after generation of powerful cultivators from Penglai Island, enter to cultivate in seclusion and emerge to protect the world, constantly proclaiming the existence of this Taoist holy land.
For example, this real person, Mengyu, is one such case.
This person has been guarding the Cangwu region for six years and has fought many True Kings of the sea race.
Although the Blood King had never clashed with him, he had long heard of his name and knew something about his methods.
He understood this wasn't an opponent to be taken lightly. At first sight, he dodged and said not a word, his body crackling with intense, explosive energy like firecrackers going off one after the other.

Crackle crackle crackle!!
This terrifyingly powerful True King's shell disintegrated completely into Dao principles within a thousandth of a breath, manifesting concretely as bloodlight, scattering into hundreds, thousands, and even tens of thousands of strands.
Blood is divided into yin and yang, with five elements, three sacrifices are different, and four directions are different.
Brilliant, dark and brown colors, a single blood color could be manifested in hundreds of ways, scattering like fireworks of blood erupting into the sky!
They embody the Blood King's absolute control over the word "blood."

These blood lights flickered, indistinct and varied in length, scattering in all directions. They moved fast or slow, appearing and disappearing at random, making it impossible to capture them precisely.
The Blood King's intention to avoid battle is clearer than day.
But the so-called clarity above the blood light, suddenly seemed like an avalanche of snow mountains!

There is no "heaven" here, so first we need to embody the concept of "heaven," and then the sky presses down.
>
There is no "earth" here, yet beneath Mengyu's feet, the earth stretches infinitely, bearing all without end, eternally existing.

That clear-cut brightness, bearing the weight of everything...
The heavens are round, and the Earth is square!
It is the supreme secret method inherited from the fundamental scripture of Penglai Island, "The Great Sacred Taishang Yuchen Jing," and belongs to the forty-nine arts of creation, specifically the Tianyan art.
When the divine Mengyu appeared, he used this technique to knock on the door. Later, he continued to innovate and refine it, pushing this technique to ninth place in the rankings!
Tens of thousands of exploding blood-colored fireworks, abruptly ceased in mid-air, solidifying into a fleeting yet magnificent tableau.
The unspoken collision of principles, sketching out ripples like a dreamlike phantom.
Such a big hand!
From their first encounter, Mengyu made no attempt to hold back against the Blood King, immediately sealing off a region of space.
It was merely a chance encounter. We were both initially wary, and it should have been a fleeting glance, but he moved with the force of an earthquake.
Mengyu naturally understood this. The Blood King, after two consecutive battles, though unharmed, was greatly exhausted. If they wanted to kill him, now would be the perfect opportunity.
Killing the Blood King would have a major impact on the entire Abyssal War, and it would be a substantial resource for himself.
Heaven does not take from man, but man takes from heaven and suffers the consequences!

The blazing, ferocious Hunting City fell from the sky, unleashing its full fury against the protective Nest Array's barrier. It exploded into countless brilliant blooms of fire.
This dramatic scene of war is adorned with a touch of festivity.
The commander of the personal guard, Fang Yuan-you, asked: "With Ao Huangzhong, the famous general of the sea tribe, present, what should we do"
Duke Wuan replied: "There are six sea nests in the Ding Mao area. How can there be six Ao Huangzhong [a type of musical instrument] in the art of war It is about overwhelming the weak with strength!"
Jiang Wang decisively withdrew his troops from the first sea nest in Dingmao and immediately marched towards the second sea nest in Dingmao.
As soon as they arrived, they launched a fierce attack!
Not only did he dispatch troops to attack in shifts, but he also personally took part in the battle, attacking the city alongside various weapons.
After the most direct bombardment of Yancheng, fireworks bloomed across the protective array of the nest. Under the constant support of the Sea Clan's defenders, each blossom was extinguished by the power of the protective array one by one.
With Jiang Wang's current strength, summoning the power of heaven and earth was like a mountain roaring and the sea swallowing. He just stood there, and he was already at the center of the storm.
No need for other magical arts, just wave after wave of flaming flowers burning the city, attacking with all their might, giving the most direct pressure to the protective nest formation.

There are thousands of types of protective arrays, but this kind that covers the entire sea-nest, its operation process is to maintain the fluidity of energy, and it must have the ability to gather massive defensive power to a specific area or even a point at any time.
Jiang Wang's command of a multi-pronged bombardment tactic was the most direct way to disrupt the operation of the large formation.
Under such intense and powerful bombardment, the marine defenders would be blown open if even one of them fell behind, thus shattering their defenses.

Jiang Wang seemed completely unconcerned about the Yuan loss, one after another fiery flowers burned the city. He fully exerted the power of this top-grade Dao technique, verifying his judgment on the weaknesses of the protective formation before him. The more he fought, the more excited he became, even leaving the army and flying around the sea nest, as if he didn't care about his own defense at all.
If a powerful sea tribe were to seize the opportunity and attack, this would be the perfect chance.

Unfortunately, this Dingmao Second Sea Nest is eerily quiet. The steel honeycomb-like passageways serve only as an outlet for the flood of weaponry and magical energies. Not even a single shout can be heard!
Jiang Wang's mind had already made a decision, but he only intensified his attack, appearing even more eager.
Right as the light curtain of this grand protective formation began to tremble, a cerulean-colored hand surged forth, snatching away all the blooming fireworks in an instant.
"It's a small world after all," Ao Huangzhong flew out from the dark, steel passageway and looked at Jiang Wang.
His armor billowed, scales gleaming, a serene smile on his face, as if he had everything under control.
Jiang Wangyi smiled: "It seems you think this is fate between you and me."
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
"Heaven has its own design." Aojing Huang Zhong said, "I suddenly remembered, you call yourself Qingyang, and my name is Huangzhong. We are indeed destined to meet!"
Jiang Wang said nothing more, directly stepping onto the deck and ordering the army to retreat.
Fang Yuan You was shocked and couldn't help but ask, "Could it really be that there are six Ao Huang Zhong"
Jiang Wang ignored such a foolish question and simply said, "With all these Sea Nests undefended, there are many ways to do it. For example...a top-tier divine ability called Chizhi Tianya."
Fang Yuyou frowned: "If the person we seek is truly within reach, then I'm afraid we won't be able to capture even one of these sea nests in this realm."

Although the Ao Huangzhong's individual combat strength is inferior to that of the Hou Ye, the Feiyunlou ship carrying three thousand soldiers can also be a powerful weapon on the battlefield.
However, with the ability to call upon reinforcements from all the various sea lairs at any time, Ao Huangzhong had no need to worry about his defenses being breached due to the overwhelming advantage he held.
If this continues for a long time, with the large army campaigning abroad and achieving no successes, there is fear that disaster will befall us.
In Fang Yuan You's opinion, after the appearance of Ao Huangzhong, the battle situation in the Ding Mao realm was indeed difficult to make progress!
As for figures like Kuang Huiping and You Yuxin, who had long participated in the war in the Realm of Confusion, they were equally powerless against this situation and expressed a desire to retreat.
But Jiang Wang only ordered Da Xiang to head towards the next Sea Nest.
At this time, the benefits of his rallying the troops and intimidating the three armies were already apparent.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
Although the soldiers had fought unsuccessfully against two sea forts in a row and were visibly tired, they didn't slack off. Instead, they took advantage of their time to recuperate on their warships, taking medicine and using stones for treatment.
Jiang Wang stood at the bow of the ship, hands behind his back, his clothes billowing in the wind. He appeared calm and composed. However, inside his mind, he was deeply immersed in strategizing, struggling to find a solution to the impending battle.
Therefore, war is such a complex subject.
An army's deployment isn't about you going solo with your sword, winning when you can, and retreating when you can't.
Having marched this far, if this battle yields no gains, regardless of the significant blow to prestige, the consumption of these Qi Blood Pills and Dao Yuan Stones alone constitutes a massive loss.

When the number of losses accumulates, this battlefield ceases to be a stronghold for the human army. Instead, it becomes a bottomless vortex that drains its resources inward.
Of course, given Jiang Wang's current accumulation, he can bear the consequences of futility.
Given his personality, even if he caused a huge deficit, he wouldn't make his subordinates pay for his stubbornness. In the end, he would simply fill the gap himself.
The reason why they are unwilling to withdraw their troops now is naturally because... the Dingmao Sea Clan, garrisoned by the renowned general Ao Huangzhong, is not invincible!
>
It is known that there are six sea nests in the Dingmao area.
It is known that the first sea nest in Dingmao has the strongest strength, and through a full-scale attack, the defensive intensity of this sea nest has been understood.
It is known that Aojhuangzhong can transfer from one sea nest to another in some way.
It is known that Ao Huang Zhong was a renowned general, possessing ample military strategy and power. He exercised great prudence in selecting the turtle formation as his primary tactic, focusing on a policy of remaining closed off and making no concessions. No matter how he might be provoked to reveal weaknesses, he resolutely refused to expose himself or engage with any bait...
Jiang Wang's mind whirled with all his accumulated knowledge, and he casually commanded the army to bypass the Third Sea Nest and charge towards the Fourth Sea Nest.
The selection of a location for a floating island, or sea nest, is not a decision made lightly by any high-ranking official.
They are usually located in areas where a boundary between realms is formed, and these areas are simply called "crystal caves" by humans.
At the beginning, there were ostentatious names like "Celestial Fortune Cave," but they were eventually replaced by the concise term "mine."
The process of the Netherworld birthing Soul Crystals is akin to birds laying eggs, popping out one by one. There's no telling how many or how fast they appear. Everything in the Netherworld is chaotic, even the birth of Soul Crystals lacks any discernible pattern.
About the Mi Jing mine, the only thing that is certain is its location.
The wild areas of the Dingmao Realm are now completely under the control of the human race. Superhuman cultivators patrol everywhere, with no rivals whatsoever. In other words, the Dingmao sea clan, outside their underwater nest, are essentially blind.

Ao Huang Zhong was able to know Jiang Wang's military target at the first time and complete the support in time, naturally because of the transmission formation between various sea nests.
Therefore, before the main army arrived at the Fourth Sea Nest, the vanguard first transported a three-zhang-tall black metal square stele outside the nest and placed it on the ground. They channeled their blood and qi, embedded enough Dao Yuan stones, and then activated it.
This is the "Silent Stone," a unique weapon exclusive to the State of Qi, created by the master artisan Gongsun Ge.
Of course, it's impossible to do something like the Battle of Qi Xia. Under Ruan Qiu's leadership, the Qi army used the stars as their formation and directly severed the rules of communication, preventing any form or intensity of long-distance transmission from being realized.
But within a certain range of space, the "Silent Monument" can also effectively block the long-distance transmission of text and sound, causing them to be "silent".
Now the sea tribes in the fourth Sea Nest, outside the nest, have become completely "blind".
When the Fourth Hive suddenly lost its ability to communicate, it signified that the Human army had designated it as a military target.
That is to say, through such an action.
Ao Huangzhong already knew that the Wuan army was here at the Fourth Sea Nest, and Jiang Wang also knew. Ao Huangzhong rushed to the Fourth Sea Nest.
Both parties are aware that the other is already aware.
>
After that, Jiang Wang stationed his troops and did not attack.
The vast army stood silently outside the Silent Monument, stationed in a position within the Fourth Sea Nest that was too obscure for accurate observation. Meanwhile, scouts roamed freely, forbidding any sea creature from peering in.
Now the big test for Ao Huangzhong has begun!
Because communication with the Fourth Sea Nest has been cut off, the sea races within the Fourth Sea Nest are unable to learn about the situation in the other five Sea Nests through transmission formations. They don't even know if the human army has concentrated its main force outside the Fourth Sea Nest.
This has nothing to do with Aojhuang Zhong's military capability. This is the consequence of losing intelligence, and it's also the inevitable result of their field combat ability being crushed.
>
At this point, the Dingmao Hai Clan might only be able to rely on Ao Huang Zhong's ability to come and go freely, repeatedly traveling between the six sea nests, continuously confirming the main attack target of the human army. And supporting Ao Huang Zhong's freedom of movement, whether it is supernatural powers or some kind of treasure, how many rounds can it sustain This step is like hanging a sword by a thread, better than a thousand chiselings and ten thousand strikes!

Of course, Ao Huang Zhong could also hide in the depths of the sea lair and remain motionless. Just as he did in the first and second sea lairs before, he would wait until the protective lair formation was greatly depleted, and then make his move at a critical moment.
While it's true that going back and forth between the Ao Huangzhong and the various sea nests is a huge drain, how long can Wu An's army keep up this fierce attack on the protective nest formations But here, in Jiang Wang's hands, he still has one more trump card.
Ao Huangzhong struck twice, cutting off Jiang Wang's attack. He had already been tied up by Nianchen.
He could have sensed the location of Ao Huang Zhong long ago, but pretended not to know. He still challenged Ao Huang Zhong with silent stone, engaging in a battle of wits and courage. Making Ao Huang Zhong believe this was a game where both sides tested each other's positions, consuming their own strength to probe the opponent's cards.
Actually, he was looking at Ao Huangzhong's cards and betting on the table above them!
Three hours in the specific yet hazy waiting felt quite long, but for Jiang Wang, who was silently cultivating, it passed in a flash.
"My Lord, when shall we wait" Kuang Hui Ping walked onto the Feiyun Lou ship and proactively asked to fight: "Brothers have rested enough. I would like to be the vanguard, charging at the enemy gates for my lord!"
"General Kuang is steady and reliable, but also rather difficult to appease. Ao Huangzhong will only become more anxious." Jiang gazed into the distance at the fourth Sea Nest, which was beyond his sight. He extinguished the flickering flame on his fingertip and said in a low voice: "Pass down the order, have them eat first."
Kuang Hui-ping was stunned, but she obediently accepted the order and left.

"Lord," Fang Yuyou whispered from the side, "My brothers have been out for a long time. The number of Mijing we brought on board is limited, so we need to be careful with our supply and watch out for the threat of mutation."
Jiang Wang took the list and glanced at it a few times, then handed it back. "There's enough time."
He was clear about Ao Huangzhong's whereabouts, knowing when the renowned Sea Race general was in the fourth sea nest and when he left. Therefore, he had enough patience to test his opponent.
Ao Huangzhong has been repeatedly going back and forth between the fourth sea nest for five rounds!
This is enough to serve as proof for the anxious.
Anxiety often magnifies problems.
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
He was waiting for Ao Huangzhong's mistake.
"Something's wrong!"
On the face of Ao Huangzhong, which because of its solemnity appeared too old, there was a barely perceptible excitement.
"It has already been four hours, and there has been no new movement from the human army."
He shook his head as he spoke.
"This Wu An Hou of Qi State, he should not be so composed. With his large army on the move, every moment is a drain, and with repeated assaults against the protective fortress formation, his soldiers are tired and supplies are lacking. I, however, sit here guarding this crucial pass, relying on the strong formation to wait for an opportunity. How could he possibly be more composed than me"
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!
He paced back and forth three times on the highest bridge inside the Sea Nest, then when he looked up again, a decision had been made: "Send the order down, relocate the Sea Nest!"
"Your Majesty!" The Fourth Sea Nest's Garrison Commander was incredulous: "Our defenses are in place, our armies intact. Why would you order a relocation of the sea nest"
The Sea Nest, though a war fortress, was designed with mobility from its inception.
But migrating to a sea nest is not a simple thing.
The location of a Sea Nest is often chosen near a Myriad Crystal Cave. To establish it and keep it stable in the chaotic world, it takes a significant amount of Origin Energy and long-term effort to create a small haven for the Sea Clan.
Blind migration is a huge waste of resources!
The loss of this maze crystal mine also means handing over the most important strategic resource in the world to others!
This made him unfazed. Ao Huangzhong had already calculated the losses in his heart and casually said, "Jiang Wang has already found my location. Although I don't know how he did it."
He discovered your presence and didn't dare to attack. Isn't that a sign of strength in weakness This garrison commander clearly didn't understand: "He just erected a silent monument, we should just relocate. What if he erects the monument at other sea nests"
Ao Huangzhong calmly said, "It also migrates."
This is a test to see if the tool can translate text within HTML tags.
"Such a massive loss, and it happened before even battle commenced!" The commander at the Nest gritted his teeth. "This subordinate truly finds it hard to comprehend!"
Finally, I found some enjoyment in the game today. Ao Huangzhong showed a bit more patience and explained to him: "There's a military treatise among humans that says, 'When you lose ground, keep your people; when you keep your people, both land and people survive. When you lose people, you lose both land and people.' You should remember this well. A prodigy like Jiang Wang won't stay here forever. What you lose today can all be taken back tomorrow."
"But we're calm here, the human army wouldn't dare attack." The garrison commander remained puzzled: "They can't see the risk of losing ground, nor the risk of losing soldiers."
Ao Huangzhong glanced at him, finally losing patience with further words: "Carry out my command."
Then the fourth Sea Nest rose with the wind, thundering toward the direction of the first Sea Nest, and naturally leaving the silence monument's shroud.
Only the human army, still eating their meal and looking at each other in bewilderment, remained. And on the prow of the warships stood Jiang Wang, frowning silently.
Jiang Wang did indeed wait for the Ao Huangzhong's change.
But when it came to the point, it wasn't Ao Huang Zhong having exhausted his power and being restricted in his freedom of movement, nor was it this famous Hai Clan general taking a daring gamble. Instead, it was the lizard dropping its tail.
From their first contact to now, they haven't had a truly meaningful head-on collision. Yet Ao Huangzhong is shrinking again and again, now even willing to give up the Myriad Crystal Cave, he is truly cautious to the extreme!
Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!
It was precisely such opponents that left Jiang Wang utterly unable to see any possibility of extinguishing the enemy forces.
When Ao Huang Zhong decided to migrate his sea nest, the worst possible outcome he could face was that all five sea nests would migrate.
And any Sea Nest in the Ding Mao region would be impossible for humankind to break through ever again!
