Chapter 642 Successive Losses Of Western Cosmos Factions
Meanwhile, Jiang Chen convened a crucial meeting with the Tyrannical Emperor Star God. The grandeur of the Star God\'s celestial palace, adorned with resplendent jewels and luminescent walls, was a testament to his power. Jiang Chen, with his dignified bearing and piercing gaze, commanded respect as he stood before the Tyrannical Emperor.
"Tyrannical Emperor Star God," Jiang Chen began, his voice calm yet authoritative, "if we are to capture the strategic points and ultimately defeat the Lin Ancient Family, our factions must collaborate closely."
The Tyrannical Emperor Star God, a towering figure radiating an aura of overwhelming power, nodded thoughtfully. "I agree, Jiang Chen. Your insights have proven invaluable thus far."
Jiang Chen laid out a detailed map of the Lin Ancient Family\'s starry formations. "These are the key strategic points we must target," he explained, pointing to several crucial locations. "By attacking these points, we can disrupt their defensive formations and set up our offensive arrays. This will not only weaken their defenses but also give us a tactical advantage in our assault."
The Tyrannical Emperor Star God\'s eyes widened slightly as he absorbed the details of the plan. "Remarkable," he murmured, genuinely impressed. "Your strategic acumen is exceptional, Jiang Chen. This plan is far superior to anything my generals have conceived."
Jiang Chen continued, "These starry formations are interconnected. By targeting specific nodes, we can create a cascading effect that will cripple their entire defensive network. Once their defenses are down, we can launch a concentrated attack to obliterate their main stronghold."
The Tyrannical Emperor Star God nodded seriously, his mind racing with the implications of Jiang Chen\'s plan. He recognized the brilliance and potential in Jiang Chen, a rising star who rivaled the prodigies of other Cosmos. "Very well, Jiang Chen. I will order my forces to focus on these strategic points."
With the plan set in motion, the factions of the Tyrannical Emperor Star God began targeting the critical points of the Lin Ancient Family\'s starry formations. Each strike was precise, designed to weaken the intricate web of defenses protecting the Lin Ancient Family\'s stars.
Simultaneously, Jiang Chen\'s Jiang Family launched their own offensive. They aimed to penetrate directly into the heart of the Lin Ancient Family\'s territory. Jiang Chen was confident that once they breached the main stronghold, he could subdue the Lin Ancient Family, even if the Heavenly Jade Pavilion\'s experts intervened.
Days passed, and the Lin Ancient Family found themselves on the back foot. Their defensive formations, once formidable, were on the verge of collapse. The atmosphere within their stronghold was tense, filled with the anxiety of impending doom. Many members of the Lin Ancient Family lost hope, their spirits crushed by the relentless assaults.
At the same time, the Jiang Family and the Tyrannical Emperor Star God\'s factions watched the weakening defensive formations with glee. They eagerly awaited the moment the barriers would fall, anticipating their imminent victory.
Then, a shocking sight unfolded. At a critical strategic point, two figures emerged: Lin Xingya and Wang Jian. Lin Xingya, her beauty radiant despite the dire situation, was cradled in Wang Jian\'s arms.
Jiang Chen\'s eyes narrowed, his pride stung. He, an ancient expert reincarnated, was affronted by the sight of his former fiancée in the arms of another man. His anger simmered, but a thin smile crossed his face as he imagined capturing Lin Xingya and exacting his vengeance.
However, Wang Jian\'s confident demeanor unsettled him. Wang Jian\'s smile was calm as he surveyed the factions surrounding the Lin Ancient Family\'s defensive barriers. His gaze settled on Jiang Chen, and he spoke with a tone of mocking pity. "Jiang Chen, you are too naive."
Before Jiang Chen could respond, Wang Jian snapped his fingers. Instantly, the defensive formation that appeared to be on its last legs transformed. The once defensive barrier morphed into a devastating offensive array formation, the Star-Devouring Annihilation Array. This formation, capable of destroying entire stars and powerful cultivators within its range, now turned its wrath on the surrounding
enemies.
Jiang Chen\'s eyes widened in shock. The factions of the Jiang Family and the Tyrannical Emperor Star God\'s forces, having approached too closely in their eagerness to breach the barrier, found themselves within the deadly range of the offensive array.
Explosions of immense power erupted from the Star-Devouring Annihilation Array, tearing through the ranks of the attackers. Screams of pain and terror filled the air as the devastating energy obliterated everything in its path. The once confident expressions of the Jiang Family and the Tyrannical Emperor Star God\'s factions turned to horror.
But the nightmare was far from over. Wang Jian snapped his fingers a second time. Concealed explosive talismans, strategically placed around the defensive formation, activated in a chain reaction. The ensuing explosions caused massive destruction, decimating the enemy forces further.
Jiang Chen, barely escaping the catastrophic blasts along with a few elders of his Jiang Family, looked on in disbelief. His meticulous plans lay in ruins. The Tyrannical Emperor Star God, observing from his battleship with sweat dripping from his forehead, realized the true extent of Wang Jian\'s strategic prowess.
From afar, the Tyrannical Emperor Star God watched the unfolding chaos. His respect for Jiang Chen\'s talent had been considerable, but witnessing Wang Jian\'s masterful counter-strategy left him in awe. "Wang Jian is far above the likes of Jiang Chen," he muttered, recognizing the extraordinary intelligence and cunning of the man before him.
As the remnants of the enemy forces retreated, the Lin Ancient Family and their allies stood victorious. Wang Jian\'s brilliant strategy had not only repelled the immediate threat but also shattered the morale and cohesion of their adversaries.
In the aftermath, Wang Jian turned to Lin Xingya, who still clung to him, her eyes filled with admiration and gratitude. "You did it, Wang Jian," she whispered, her voice trembling with relief.
The Lin Ancient Family\'s members, previously despondent, now looked to Wang Jian with newfound hope and respect. Lin Zhiqui, the patriarch, approached him with a
deep bow. "City Lord Wang Jian, your brilliance has saved us. We owe you a debt of gratitude."
Wang Jian acknowledged the gesture with a nod. "Patriarch Lin, our fight is not just for the Lin Ancient Family, but for the stability and future of the Eastern Cosmos. Together, we will face whatever challenges lie ahead."
As the stars of the Eastern Cosmos shimmered overhead, the alliance between the Lin
Ancient Family, the Heavenly Jade Pavilion, and Wang Jian stood strengthened by their shared trials. The battle had revealed not only the ferocity of their enemies but also the depth of their own resolve and ingenuity.
Jiang Chen, nursing his wounded pride and spirit, retreated to reassess his strategies.
His encounter with Wang Jian had been a harsh lesson in humility, but also a catalyst for his renewed determination. The war for dominance in the Eastern Cosmos was far from concluded, and Jiang Chen vowed to return stronger, more cunning, and more relentless than ever before.
The Tyrannical Emperor Star God, too, pondered his next moves, his respect for Wang Jian tempered by the realization that he now faced a rival of unprecedented
capability.
The fallout from the failed campaign against the Lin Ancient Family and the Shui Ancient Family was nothing short of catastrophic. The combined might of the Tyrannical Emperor Star God\'s faction, bolstered by the Jiang Ancient Family-the strongest ancient family-along with the Tang Ancient Family, the Ming Ancient Family, and the Nangong Ancient Family, had been utterly thwarted. This resounding failure sent shockwaves through the factions of the Eastern, Western, and Southern Cosmos, revealing the formidable strength and resilience of the Lin and Shui Ancient Families.
Simultaneously, news spread like wildfire about the Dragon Emperor Star God\'s defeat. Despite his best efforts, he failed to conquer any of the three Divine Beast Clans-the Ancient Phoenix Clan, the White Tiger Divine Clan, and the Black Tortoise Divine Clan. The reason for this setback was the relentless obstruction by Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan and her faction of beautiful elders from the Heavenly Jade Pavilion.
The Brahma Divine Star Goddess\'s plan to bring the sects of the Eastern Cosmos under her influence had already failed, thanks to Wang Jian\'s timely intervention. His strategic prowess and unexpected maneuvers had disrupted her carefully laid plans,
preventing her from gaining a foothold in the region.
Even the two great Astral Spirits were facing difficulties. The Ghost Emperor\'s faction
had been losing many of their Ghost Emissaries, newly formed Ghost Soldiers, and Ghost Generals to the relentless attacks of Lu Rong\'er and her force of beautiful
angels. Lu Rong\'er, now known as the Silver Light Goddess, led her angels with unparalleled grace and power, decimating the ranks of the Ghost Emperor\'s forces. The Nether Empress Astral Spirit, while having suffered the least losses, had focused on developing a secret information network by subtly corrupting or enslaving individuals\' spirits, turning them into her Nether Spirits. However, her network was now being targeted by Celestial Maiden Yuqing, leader of the Angel Race.
