Ye Chen smiled and shook his head, no longer worrying about the great demons, and turned back to continue working with Fatty on the construction of the Star Gate.
After passing through the star gate, Xu Changqing and the others arrived at the battlefield. Everywhere they looked, they saw various clans and dark creatures fighting each other. The ground was covered with corpses and blood, and it didn't look like a starry sky. It was more like hell.
"No matter how many times I come here, it is still so shocking and tragic!" Zixuan exclaimed, looking at the ubiquitous war around her.
"I once accompanied the Heavenly Emperor to Fengdu City to see Hell, and its scenery was nothing special, perhaps even worse than this place!" Ye Zhen said. Although the living were forbidden from entering Fengdu City, following Ye Chen still gave them the opportunity to go in and take a look.
"That's how interdimensional warfare is; it's either you die or I die, you can only fight with all your might!" Tao Ping smiled. Compared to these clans, he had seen many large-scale battlefields like this and was already used to it.
"Let's go. The coordinates are roughly in that direction. Try not to go out. The starship's own firepower should be enough!" Tao Ping said, leading the entire fleet to adjust its direction and fly towards the designated location.
The journey through the stars is extremely long, often taking months or even years. Even with stargates, the distance is only slightly shortened, since stargates cannot truly penetrate into the source of darkness.
As the group continued their journey, they frequently activated the starship's short-range space jump function. However, most of the time they encountered large numbers of dark creatures and had to engage with them, relying solely on the starship's powerful firepower to clear a path.
However, this would cause the energy crystals on the starship to be consumed very quickly, which greatly troubled Xu Changqing and the others.
This was their first time leading a team on a mission, and they couldn't accept going back to Ye Chen for energy support before even reaching their destination.
"Don't panic, there are so many starships around! We're not the only ones going to the small world!" Ye Zhen said with a smile, looking out the window.
Along the way, they encountered quite a few starships, indicating that Ye Chen and his group were not the only ones who had received the news. Many lords were also heading to this small world, and they would face the same problems, perhaps even more difficult ones than Ye Chen's clan.
After all, other people's starships are basically just a group of transport ships with very weak actual combat capabilities. In such a high-intensity war, they would be very easy to be damaged while traveling in space.
Many lords' families even had to abandon their plans to recruit subjects halfway through their journeys, and instead had to fly there themselves to gather some rare items.
"The lord said that E's beast is eloquent, and Xia Qingyi also speaks highly of you. Now it's up to you to see what you can do!" Tao Ping said with a smile.
Xu Changqing and the others followed the gaze of the two men and looked out the window. They quickly realized what the two men wanted to do.
Ye Zhen piloted the starship, slowly approaching a large army of familiars. They were currently engaged in battle with dark creatures, and the starships were already heavily damaged. About a third of the starships had lost their ability to continue sailing and had no choice but to abandon them.
Their approach clearly aroused considerable vigilance on the other side, as a mecha starship had already turned around and was heading towards them.
Ye Zhen didn't stand on ceremony and directly summoned her own projection using the projection device, then sent a communication request.
The communication was quickly established, and the other party was a group of Sky Warriors, a race of winged geniuses. However, unlike angels, they did not possess pure light attributes. Instead, they were brave and skilled in battle, fighting against the heavens. They were an extremely warlike race, comparable to the Witch Clan.
"Who are you? What do you want?" A burly, bare-chested man with wings on his back appeared in the starry sky, followed by his rough voice from the communicator.
"Don't be nervous. We are a team from the Primordial Star. My name is Ye Zhen. We saw you fighting against the dark creatures here and wanted to come and help you." Ye Zhen said with a faint smile. This kind of thing is very common. Usually, the other party will leave some corpses of dark creatures as payment.
"Thank you all! You may take the bodies of the dark creatures you have killed!" Hearing that they had come to help, the burly man opposite him was obviously relieved and then thanked them.
With the other party's approval, Ye Zhen gestured to Xu Changqing and the others beside her, and immediately several starships sailed out, unleashing terrifying firepower. The dark creatures that had been entangled with the Botian Clan for a long time were quickly wiped out, with most of them being eliminated.
Upon seeing this, the faces of the people on the other side were filled with shock. They looked at the starship where Ye Zhen and the others were in disbelief, wondering if they could withstand such an attack.
"Are you all also heading to that newly appeared small world?" Seeing that the other party was shocked by her firepower, Ye Zhen smiled faintly and asked, seemingly out of curiosity.
Upon hearing this, the members of the Botian Clan didn't think much of it and immediately nodded in agreement.
“Indeed, we were also sent by the lord to that newly appeared small world, but unfortunately, before we even arrived, nearly a third of our starship was destroyed. It seems we won’t be able to rescue the creatures there!” The leader opposite said with a regretful expression.
"You still have so many starships, how come you can't rescue the creatures inside?" Ye Zhen asked, feigning ignorance.
"This? You're joking, girl! We've already lost a third of our creatures. By the time we reach the small world, the losses will be more than half. We'll also need to return, which will only increase the losses. How will we be able to bring back those creatures then?" Bo Tian said with a wry smile. He didn't believe that the other party couldn't see the predicament on his side.
"Hehe, that's true. Your starships have terrible firepower and poor maneuverability! It's not bad that you've made it this far!" Ye Zhen said with a tilted head and a smile. To a burly man, her innocent appearance was incredibly adorable.
"But you're lucky, why don't you come with us! You've seen my firepower, dealing with these dark creatures shouldn't be a problem. You can also bring back a batch of creatures from the small world to report back!"
"This? This is so embarrassing!"
"Hey! We are all races among the myriad beings of the heavens. In the fight against darkness, it is only right that we help each other. Why be so polite?"
"That's true, then thank you very much, sister!" the burly man from the Botian Clan said, without the slightest hint of embarrassment in his tone!
“That’s fine, but launching an attack from a starship consumes a lot of energy. Protecting so many of your starships would greatly expand the area we need to cover. We’re already short on energy crystals here, so I wonder if…”
"Hey! It's just a few energy crystals! I'll have someone send you as many as you need right away!"
"Thank you so much!"
