Maiden Galaxy

Chapter 511: Lightless Sun And Moon

Ming City.

Ten Thousand Sages Hall. Magnificent light shone upon the Star Field, completely enveloping the city. The temple that collected the ancient sages' power was worthy of being named a Universe Eternity Spirit Treasure. Even the Star Marquis and top-notch Star Generals were unable to budge it in the slightest with their full power.

"Star Marquis, please maintain full power. We absolutely cannot allow Zhu Yuanzhang to refine the Great Ming."

Su Mian anxiously urged, but looking to the sky above the Star Field, the sun and moon were side by side, exhibiting a strange phenomenon.

Li Shimin, Liu Che, Wu Zhao, Tuoba Tao, and the other Star Marquis released their Purple Rose Qi.

Li Bai, Wang Dao, Li Cunxu and the rest also used their Phoenix Earth Ranks or even their Heaven Ranks.

Under such unprecedented Star Energy, the Ten Thousand Sages Hall's barrier tottered on the edge of collapse.

One of the Sun And Moon Star Kingdom's Twin Dragons, "Eternal Victory Everywhere" Chang Yuchun, took center stage. She raised her head to coldly glare at the swarm of ships and Star Generals in the sky above.

"Lady Chang Yuchun." "Justified Bloodshed Gunfire" Li Xueqing's tone was apprehensive, and she appeared a bit nervous.

"Everyone need not panic. Her Majesty's Great Ming will be completed. We have the blessing of the Ten Thousand Sages, we can surely initiate the Great Ming's splendor!" Chang Yuchun brought out her Coiled Dragon Spear. She pointed her finger at the heavens and shouted with a voice that shook the sky: "The sun and moon are side by side, all stars shall dim!!"

"Today, we shall bring about the beginning of a new Star Era!"

"The sun and moon are side by side, all stars shall dim! Exterminate the ten thousand stars, restore the Great Ming!!" Li Xueqing also brought out her Star Weapon, two long guns with bayonets. Coiling around them was the decorative design of a fire python. This Star Weapon's name was "Life And Death Shortcut." Among the conventional and popular Star Weapons, this was a type of rarely seen firearm-type, but its might was exceptional. It was capable of penetrating armor, and neither crossbow nor arrow could stop it.

Li Rusong roared like a tiger. The Life And Death Shortcut guns gathered Star Energy, and their muzzles spat flame.

At the same time, the other Star Names also shouted loudly with heroism reaching towards the sky.

"Civilize people by example, and the whole realm will be righteous. A flock of ignoramuses wishes to initiate a Star Era." Dong Zhongshu waved her hand, using Heaven Rank "All Sages Are Eternal." As the apex of Confucianism, she was filled with a vast noble spirit. Even using her Heaven Rank once or twice would not hurt her strength. Seeing that the Star Names of the Sun And Moon Star Kingdom were so blind, even this Master Of Heaven And Man was angered.

All Sages Are Eternal finally smashed the last vestiges of the Ten Thousand Sages Hall's failing barrier.

With the barrier broken, the hundreds of warships, the tens of thousands of Star Soldiers, and all Star Generals and Star Marquis flocked straight towards the Great Ming Palace. In an instant, the world fell dark, and the sun and moon lost their light.

The Sun And Moon Star Kingdom's Star Generals were completely unable to withstand a single blow from this rushing torrent, but since Zhu Yuanzhang was willing to openly rebel to seize the Ten Thousand Sages Hall, she naturally had her own plans.

Two women appeared above the Ten Thousand Sages Hall. One woman had a slender build and was clad in a Bright Moon long robe. Her facial features were round, and her eyes were like a chilly star, bright and imposing. The other was a tall and fierce general, lofty as a god of war. Astonishingly, they were Zhu Yuanzhang's two Great True Spirit Projections, "Sun" and "Moon."

"As expected of the most outstanding Star Marquis in history. She has unexpectedly cultivated her True Spirit Projection to such a level." Even Li Liangyi was impressed.

Sun and moon side by side, th whole world is the Great Ming.

"Sun And Moon True Dragon" Zhu Yuanzhang finally grasped the eternity of her Star Name and created a supreme eternal path. No wonder she dared to revolt. If she actually refined it to completion, she perhaps would truly be difficult to handle.

The "Sun" and "Moon" True Spirit Projections glanced at each other and assumed control of the Ten Thousand Sages Hall.

The Ten Thousand Sages Hall, suspended high over the Great Ming Palace, suddenly glowed brightly. The Seven Sages' True Spirits manifested. These Seven Sages were astonishingly Sage Of Calligraphy Wang Xizhi and the others. However, in the Ten Thousand Sages Hall, the eight True Spirits were already like marionettes, manipulated by another person.

"You dare disgrace my elder sister in this fashion. Zhu Yuanzhang, the Wang Clan of Langya is unable to coexist with you!!" "Langya Emperor" Wang Dao furiously bellowed. The woman drew her Eight Star Star Weapon, "Azure Dragon Langya Sword." This sword was modeled after the Four Symbols Azure Dragon. Its entire body was vivid and lifelike, aggressive and powerful.

The Sun And Moon True Dragon paid no attention. Then, an innumerable number of bodyguards dressed in brocades charged out of the Great Ming Palace. Astonishingly, they were the Sun And Moon Star Kingdom's strongest Star Soldiers, the Brocade Uniform Guard that was comparable to the Black Armor Soldiers.

Then, drizzle-like radiance descended upon the Ten Thousand Sages Hall.

It sprinkled onto the Sun And Moon Star Kingdom's Brocade Uniform Guard and Star Generals; their Realms surprisingly increased in an instant.

All of these actions took place in a mere instant. The Central Star Field's allied forces were surprisingly and unbelievably obstructed.

Hundreds of thousands, millions of Brocade Uniform Guard endlessly charged out from Ming City. The entirety of the enormous city, even up to the Star Field itself, became a chaotic battlefield.

"Earth And Grain Sword Array!" Nobleman Of Earth And Grain Zhu Xiaoxiang pointed his finger. One hundred and eight Flying Swords combined into the power of mountains and rivers, instantly covering several tens of thousands of Brocade Uniform Guards. After the sword array screeched, it surprisingly burst open. Countless Brocade Uniform Guard rushed out from the sword array, blades in their hands. Their bodies were coated in the power of the Ten Thousand Sages Hall, and their coordination surprisingly was on the level of a True Phoenix Realm Star General's power.

What??

Zhu Xiaoxiang was shocked. He hastily activated a sword array.

But another several tens of thousands of Brocade Uniform Guard charged out from underground. These had sun and moon pupils and were extremely ferocious.

"This is bad." Zhu Xiaoxiang hurriedly wanted to activate a magic treasure.

Countless Uniform Brocade Guard already surrounded him, brandishing their swords. Saber-qi was completely one with them, surprisingly containing the power of a True Phoenix Realm's Earth Rank. "Green Lotus Sword Poem: The great Dao is vast like the blue sky, I have no desire to say good-bye." An elegant voice spoke. All of a sudden, sword-qi rose around Zhu Xiaoxiang. Ten thousand green lotuses seemed to bloom, warding off the Brocade Uniform Guards' attacks. Countless green lotuses spread in every direction. When the flowers fell upon the Brocade Uniform Guards' bodies, they were immediately reduced to dust. 

A young woman in palace dress and a flower garland gracefully used her technique.

"Many thanks, Junior Sister Yanyu." Zhu Xiaoxiang said gratefully. Jiang Yanyu had received Li Bai's personal instruction. This Green Lotus Sword Poem was incomparably astounding when paired with Primordial Star Energy.

"Master Ziyan told us before that we must not intrude into the Great Ming Palace. We need only help Her Majesty eliminate the Brocade Uniform Guard from the outside." Jiang Yanyu exhorted. The Star Generals in the Great Ming Palace were like clouds, and with Zhu Yuanzhang present, the disciples of the Three Thousand Sword Ocean absolutely could not enter, otherwise they would have no way out.

Zhu Xiaoxiang nodded and said nothing more. This time, he activated a Primeval Chaos Spirit Treasure, a cane of bamboo. This bamboo cane also swept aside some Brocade Uniform Guard, and then his figure moved towards the Ten Thousand Sages Hall.

Jiang Yanyu sighed.

The Ten Thousand Sages Hall was full of treasures. She feared this Senior Brother was not resigned to let them go.

"Follow him." Li Ziyan softly said. The woman's eyes were like violets. Three thousand gorgeous swords fluttered around her like lotus flowers. Each sword contained Poetry Realm and was extremely magnificent. This was her Star Weapon, "Three Thousand Sword Poems," which combined Poetry Realm and martial force to maximum effect. Back then, her name moved the world.

The Three Thousand Sword Ocean received its name from her.

The Three Thousand Sword Poems flew and slashed, drowning out countless Brocade Uniform Guard like a sea of stars.

The woman lifted her gaze to the Ten Thousand Sword Palace high above.

With one move, she skyrocketed ninety thousand li high.

…

"This Ten Thousand Sages Hall is actually a good treasure, even i am moved." Qilin Martial Emperor Liu Che Liu Hongyu casually thrust her palm and slapped several tens of thousands of Brocade Uniform Guard apart into scrap. The woman pensively stared at the temple above.

This Ten Thousand Sages Hall's defenses could withstand endless Star Energy, yet its offense could bolster the Realm of countless Star Soldiers. It was practically an invincible treasure.

A Universe Eternity Spirit Treasure was extraordinary, as expected. Liu Hongyu was inclined to collect it.

"Martial Emperor, the other Star Marquis appear to have also gone to attack the Ten Thousand Sages Hall. Do we move to kill Zhu Yuanzhang, or do we go seize the Ten Thousand Sages Hall?" Huo Guang swung her sword, killing a Brocade Uniform Guard. After these Brocade Uniform Guard received the support of the Ten Thousand Sages Hall, even she felt they were troublesome.

There were already Star Generals at the True Phoenix Realm beginning to Starfall before the Great Ming Palace.¹

"Leave Zhu Jiujiu to Her Majesty and the others. We are going to seize the temple." Liu Hongyu faintly grinned.

"As you command."

The Qilin Pavilion's officers obeyed her orders.

Liu Hongyu charged straight for the Ten Thousand Sages Hall. Her wide clothes fluttered in the wind like wings, and a qilin's phantom seemed to manifest over the woman's body, but this qilin Holy Beast was unstoppable. All of the Brocade Uniform Guard in her way were utterly destroyed.

…

Two of the Sun And Moon Star Kingdom's Star Generals obstructed Li Liangyi while there were more Brocade Uniform Guard behind her. This formation was equivalent to True Phoenix Seventh or Eighth Stage, but Eternal Divine Warrior Li Shimin did not even glance at them. She did not wait for these two Star Generals to begin spouting bold words or an impassioned speech; the Lingyan Pavilion's officials "Pagoda Bearing Heavenly King" Li Jing, "Devil Incarnate" Cheng Yaojin, and the other great generals all attacked together, making them Starfall.

Against the Lingyan Pavilion's formation, the Sun And Moon Star Kingdom's Star Generals were wholly inadequate.

"Go help Wu Zhao seize the Ten Thousand Sages Hall." Li Liangyi's objective was still Zhu Yuanzhang's Star Marquis Seal. If she obtained it, her own power would increase even more. Destroying Tuoba Tao would also be within reach. 

"As you command." Li Jing and the others heeded her orders.

Meanwhile, the assault carried out by the Xianbei Star Kingdom's Ghost Boat was swift and flowing. Tuoba Tao led the Eight Pillars Kingdom, the Xifu, and the others' great generals.

Tuoba Tao was a woman who wore a vicious and evil-looking mask. Her entire body was covered in thin black silk, a demonic gloom, unfathomable. Her natural disposition loathed mercy the most, thus she also detested Buddhists, who preached about mercy, the most. In the past, she had committed bloody suppression against Buddhism within her Star Kingdom, forcing the Central Star Field to have no choice but to personally intervene. That operation to suppress Buddhism prevented Buddhism's influence from growing for a few centuries, and Buddhism itself split into several sects. As a result, she gained the nickname "Buddha-killing Ghost."

Among the Sixteen Star Marquis, most harbored sinister designs and secretly opposed one another, but very rarely were they so obvious about it like Tuoba Tao and Li Shimin were.

The two need only appear at the same occasion to stir up a storm of blood.

For some reason this time, the Xianbei Kingdom's Tuoba Tao, who was located the furthest from the Sun And Moon Star Kingdom, also participated in the subjugation, and she even led an enormous army.

"Li Liangyi, if I am unable to destroy you, how can I destroy Buddha. Hmph, Eight Pillars Kingdom, heed these orders…" Tuoba Tao maliciously grinned. She showed her face in this subjugation of Zhu Yuanzhang for the sake of service to the Central Star Field, yet in secret, she had her own plans.

"Look for an opportunity to eradicate the Lingyan Pavilion officers entirely, to clip Li Shimin's wings. She did not bring her Three Great Law Protectors this time, so this is the greatest opportunity we have to destroy her. The Lingyan Pavilion's Twenty Meritorious Officials and the Three Great Law Protectors were too powerful. Across all of Star World, they were supreme characters. "Buddha-killing Ghost" Tuoba Tao understood that to face Li Shimin, she would first need to break these powerful wings.

She came to this subjugation specifically to exploit the opportunity to kill several Star Generals. The Great Ming City was so vast and the battlefield so chaotic anyways, a few Starfalls were generally unavoidable.

"As you command."

The Eight Pillars Kingdom's people became shadows and scattered.

As for the person herself, the Buddha-killing Ghost raised her head to gaze at the Ten Thousand Sages Hall, showing an evil grin.

1. Raws state Star Marquis, but I don't think that's really the case. ↩
