"You mean they are saving those mortals?" Emperor Di Ming asked a Jade Dou Heavenly Court immortal general in surprise.

The immortal general bowed and said, "Yes, we saw it with our own eyes. They rescued all the mortals and intelligent creatures trapped by the flood."

Emperor Di Ming was a little surprised. "Why would they save these mortal beings? What's the benefit?"

One difference needs to be mentioned here. The way of practice in the Jambu world is different from the way of practice in the other eight directions of the universe.

For example, the Taoists, Buddhists and monks in the world of Jambu all attach great importance to the merits of educating living beings, and educating living beings and saving sentient beings are also part of their practice of the Dharma.

But the cultivation methods of the other eight sects are different. Their cultivation does not include teaching and saving living beings, so it is normal for Emperor Di Ming not to understand the behavior of the Heavenly Court.

At this time, a Golden Immortal Realm general said, "Emperor, this is a God-given opportunity."

Emperor Di Ming's gaze narrowed, and he asked, "Are you saying that we should attack them while they are rescuing those mortals?"

"Yes," the immortal general said, "If we attack them while they are rescuing mortals, we will surely catch them off guard."

Emperor Di Ming pondered for a moment after hearing this. Then he raised his head and sent a talisman to the immortal general, saying, "Okay, Li Zao, I will give you an army of 10,000. You can lead them out of Ancient Stone City and look for an opportunity to sneak attack the heavenly soldiers who are rescuing the mortals."

Upon hearing this, the Golden Immortal Realm immortal general named Li Zao immediately took the imperial edict, then took his leave and left.

But Li Zao led an army of 10,000 monks out of the ancient stone city and came to the foot of a mountain array, where he hid himself with the help of the array and waited for the opportunity.

About three hours later, Li Zao finally saw a group of heavenly soldiers appear in front of him. At a rough glance, there were at least more than three thousand of them.

"Ten thousand versus three thousand, the advantage is mine." Li Zao had a thick smile on his face, "It seems that I should take the first credit in the battle against the Heavenly Court."

However, the team of heavenly soldiers stopped more than 2,000 miles away from Li Zao. Li Zao's expression froze and he couldn't help but worry.

More than two thousand miles is a distance that a Golden Immortal like him can cross in just one breath, but he is not alone. There are 10,000 soldiers behind him. These people's cultivation ranges from True Immortals to Celestial Immortals. By the time they rush over, the heavenly soldiers have either formed a battle formation or have fled, and the purpose of the surprise attack will not be achieved.

However, he soon found that he was worrying too much, because the three thousand heavenly soldiers flew towards him after a brief stop.

"Here they come!" Li Zao was delighted and immediately ordered the 10,000 monks behind him to get ready.

However, Li Zao soon discovered that something was wrong, because many teams of heavenly soldiers appeared in other directions, and each team had about 3,000 people. They flew towards the mountains around the ancient stone city.

"No, they are going to attack!" Li Zao was shocked and immediately stood up to order a retreat to Gushi City, but at this time the three thousand heavenly soldiers in front of him had already rushed over quickly, and before the three thousand heavenly soldiers arrived, they all threw a red veil towards the top of the mountain.

"What is that?" Li Zao looked at the three thousand red gauze flying out of the hands of the three thousand heavenly soldiers, with a puzzled expression on his face.

But he reacted quickly and saw that the three thousand red gauze turned into a red light and then quickly disappeared between heaven and earth.

Li Zao exclaimed in surprise, "Oh no! It's a magic weapon! They're attacking! Pass the order down! Everyone, prepare for defense and battle."

The next moment, the ten thousand soldiers immediately used their protective fairy light and magic weapons for defense, and then the army no longer hid, but began to prepare for fighting.

The three thousand heavenly soldiers had no idea that there were more than ten thousand people hiding here. They were so frightened that they stopped immediately, holding their Huaguang guns, and quickly formed a battle line to meet the enemy.

But the three thousand 'Blood Veils' magical instruments that were sacrificed in advance played a huge role by chance.

Just after both sides formed their battle formations, more than 3,000 True Immortal Realm cultivators and some Mysterious Immortal Realm cultivators in the 10,000-strong army led by Li Zao suddenly burst into a ball of blood. Then the immortal light protecting their bodies was directly shattered, and their bodies turned into thin pieces of flesh mixed with blood and fell to the ground. Only their souls were left standing there, confused as to what had happened.

Li Zao's army of 10,000 suffered 3,000 casualties in the blink of an eye. Li Zao and the remaining Xuanxian and Tianxian realm cultivators were horrified. At this time, the heavenly soldiers in front had already launched a total attack. They held Huaguang treasure guns and took turns shooting in groups of 500.

In addition, there were 500 heavenly soldiers lined up in front, holding Dinghai Cloud-Slaying Swords in their right hands and Xuanwu Golden Scale Shields in their left hands, protecting the heavenly soldiers in the back who were shooting with Huaguang Treasure Guns, and then advancing steadily.

The Black Tortoise Golden Scale Shield is also a top-grade magic weapon used by the Heavenly Soldiers. It is made from the 'golden scales' shed from the dragon creatures of the four seas and is extremely strong.

As the Huaguang Treasure Cannon fired in succession, the defenses of some True Immortals and Xuanxian cultivators who were still in shock were broken by the continuous Huaguang Treasure Cannon. They were already injured and died under the dense firepower of the Huaguang Treasure Cannon. In the blink of an eye, more than a thousand people died.

Li Zao raised his hand and offered a golden seal. The golden seal flew up and then shone a ray of fairy light to protect the remaining 5,000 people.

As the golden seal's fairy light enveloped everyone, the attack of the Huaguang treasure gun was immediately blocked by the fairy light.

At this time, Han Chuyun, the heavenly general who commanded the heavenly soldiers, flew forward and directly summoned his magic weapon "Dongxuan Spear" and killed the golden seal.

The Dongxuan Spear let out a whistling sound, then pierced through the air and broke through the clouds in an instant, and hit the golden seal with a "bang".
