The sun had just begun to rise when the first alarms broke the silence across the eastern ridge. The scouts from the Crimson Serpent Sect had crossed the border earlier than expected. Kai was already awake, standing at the command post, watching the glowing screen of his System interface. Streams of data scrolled before his eyes as a new module activated.

System Notification: “Battle Instance – Multi-Front Defense activated. The mission is to hold the Eastern Ridge. Failure to do that will result in territory Loss and Morale Decrease.”

Kai’s expression hardened. The disciples were ready too. His voice carried across the ridge, sharp and steady. “Form up! Keep the barriers active. The moment they break formation, we strike back!”

The first wave hit moments later. Arrows whistled through the morning air, followed by bursts of spiritual energy. Enemy cultivators advanced through the mist that covered the lower slopes. Their movements were coordinated, testing the defenses. Kai watched th

  • Chapter 76:the aftermath

    System Notification: War Status, Post-Battle Phase Initiated. Administrative Mode unlocked.]Kai exhaled and focused. “System, open Administration Mode.”[Administration Mode activated. Permissions transferred to Acting Sect Master: Kai. Current command privileges expanded. You may now assign administrative roles, allocate resources, and issue sect-wide directives.]“Display current loss statistics,” Kai said.[Azure Cloud Sect current state: Active personnel—2,981.]He stared at the numbers. The silence between the system messages felt heavier than any noise.Arin walked up behind him, his arm in a sling. “Guildmaster, the sect elders are waiting for you in the council hall. They’ve been arguing for hours about the next step.”Kai nodded. “Prepare a summary report for me. Include all injured lists and food stock updates.”“Yes, sir.”Kai turned and walked toward the sect’s council hall. The once-polished doors were cracked, and scorch marks lined the walls. Inside, the remaining elde

  • Chapter75: victory and exhaustion

    There was no battle today. The cold air carried the stench of blood. Kai stood at the edge of the ruined field. His body was trembling from fatigue. He looked over the battlefield. “System,” Kai muttered weakly, his voice low, “status report.”[System Notification: War Status – Paused (Preparation Phase 2). Casualties recorded: 1,372 Azure Cloud disciples. Estimated enemy losses: 3,108. Mana reserves at 12%. Host vitality at critical threshold.]Kai clenched his jaw. “Show remaining supply count.”[Supplies remaining: 27% of original capacity. Food shortage in five days. Healing potions critically low. Formation materials depleted.]He exhaled slowly, his body aching as if it could collapse at any second. Around him, survivors began to gather. Many were bloodstained, their faces pale and hollow.“Guildmaster!” Arin shouted as he approached, carrying a bandaged disciple over his shoulder. “The eastern ridge is secured. No more enemies are left standing.”Kai turned to him, his eyes s

  • Chapter74: the break through

    The war started before morning. The enemy had regrouped overnight and returned stronger. They pushed hard against Azure Cloud’s middle defense line. Kai stood at the front. His eyes was locked on the red banners of the Crimson Serpent Sect moving through the valley.“System,” he said, his voice calm despite the chaos, “status on all defensive fronts.”“Eastern ridge holding at seventy-five percent integrity,” the System responded. “Western barrier stable. Central formation under heavy pressure.”“Redirect the reinforcements from the north to the center,” Kai ordered.“Command confirmed. Estimated arrival in three minutes.”Ren appeared beside him, covered in blood and dust. “Kai, they’ve summoned their elite division. Their cultivators are using formation amplifiers to break through.”“I see it,” Kai said as the System highlighted the advancing enemy units in red. “We end this before they can stabilize.”The System chimed again. “Energy levels within host fluctuating. Combat synchron

  • Chapter 73:the betrayal of elder Mo

    The day began quietly, but tension filled the air. The System had been running constant scans after the retreat. Kai was at the command post, reviewing reports from every division when a sudden alert flashed before him.“System,” he said quickly, “display the alert in full.”“Detected encrypted spiritual transmission originating from Elder Mo’s quarters,” the System reported. “Signal pattern matches Crimson Serpent Sect frequency. Estimated duration: eight minutes.”Kai’s face hardened. “Trace the destination.”“Transmission connected to enemy envoy camp two miles east of the ridge. Communication logs partially intercepted.”Kai read the text appearing in front of him: ‘…the Azure Cloud Sect’s defenses are weakened. The inner barrier will fail in two days. I can open the western seal in exchange for safe passage and elder status under your banner…’Ren entered the command post right then, holding a battle report. He stopped when he saw Kai’s expression. “What’s wrong?”Kai didn’t answ

  • Chapter 72:disciples in chaos

    The disciples went in every directions when they received the order to pull back from the battle. The smell of dust filled the air almost drowning out commands from their ears. The sounds of explosions and screams got the disciples confused. Kai stood at the center of the inner defense ridge, his System interface flashing red alerts across his vision.“System,” he said sharply, “status of retreating units.”“Processing… Outer units fragmented. Formation integrity at thirty-two percent. Morale: rapidly decreasing. Command structure partially collapsed.”Captain Ren rushed up, his armor scorched and eyes wide. “Commander, it’s falling apart. The younger disciples are panicking. Some are abandoning their squads!”Kai’s tone was cold. “We can’t afford a collapse. Activate internal broadcast channel.”“Broadcast channel open,” the System confirmed.Kai’s voice boomed through every communication device across the battlefield. “All Azure Cloud units, listen carefully. You will stop running

  • Chapter71: hidden weapon of the enemy

    Kai stood at the center command post. His eyes fixed on the glowing map projected by the System. Red markers blinked faster than before. Something was wrong.“System,” he said sharply, “update tactical feed.”“Processing…” the System replied. “Warning: Unknown energy detected within Crimson Serpent ranks. Source classified as ‘Ancient Artifact’ level. Effect radius: one kilometer and expanding.”Kai’s gaze darkened. “What kind of artifact?”“Energy signature resembles a formation nullifier. Estimated ninety-five percent chance it targets spiritual barriers directly.”“Formation nullifier?” Captain Ren repeated, his voice tense. “That would render our entire defense grid useless.”Elder Han stepped forward, clutching a talisman. “Impossible. Those relics haven’t been seen since the Old War. How could they possess one?”“Debating won’t change the outcome,” Kai said. “System, confirm barrier stability.”“Warning: Outer barrier stability reduced to sixty-one percent. Decline rate increasi
