Chapter 967 - Navy Combat (1/2)

Underneath the water, massive Star Beasts rampaged, dragging Yinkang Clan's warships into the river, melting and corroding the gods on board. Zhong Yue hurriedly looked towards the water and noticed that these Star Beasts looked similar to octopus and were able to resist the pressure in the water and the strange lasers.

These strange creatures hugged onto the warships, wrapping their tentacles around the ships and tearing away their defensive cloaks with their suction cups.

On their tentacles and skin was stardust. Some of the stardusts had already enlarged and when looked from far away, they looked like huge eyes.

Zhong Yue's expression changed as he recalled the Starry River around the Heaven Suppression Fortress that was about the same as the Heavenly River. The Starry River was extremely dangerous; even the Creators were not able to stay in the water for long.

There were about 500 million gods in the Heaven Suppression Fortress, organizing in the same way as the Heaven Court's army. But his navy was nothing compared to the Heavenly River Naval Fleet!

If the Heavenly River Naval Fleet attacked Heaven Suppression Fortress, the fortress' naval will not last at all!

"Deploy the Yin Ghosts out and slaughter these beasts!"

With an order, small boats slipped out from the warships and fell into the water. Zhong Yue immediately noticed major differences in these gods on the small boats compared to the others.

The gods in the Yinkang Clan's main force cultivated the demon races' arts, which bestowed them with tremendously powerful bodies, and though the gods in the small boats, they were also from the Yinkang Clan, having cultivated a way different art.

These Yinkang Clan's demon gods focused on cultivating their Yuan Shen. Apart from that, their body was cultivated to a point where they are half real and half void.

With that, they had become very much like the Wei Shen Race's Ghost Gods, who were all naturally gifted, bestowed with bodies and Yuan Shen that hovered between the boundary real and void. The Wei Shen Race was a very unique race where their people were able to traverse in the Hell and the real world freely.

If the Ghost Gods entered the Heavenly River, they would also be able to travel within the water freely without being injured by the Heavenly River.

And right now, the Yinkang Clan's Yin Ghosts were also similar; as the monarch race among the demon race, Yinkang Clan was indeed impressive that they were able to produce an army that completely abandoned the ability to fight on the land and on the water in order to achieve supremacy in combat underwater!

These Yin Ghosts must have sacrificed a lot for their race as they wouldn't be able to battle on the land and on the water. But once under the water, no one was their match!

As these boats slid into the water, countless Yin Ghosts dived right into the river with tridents in their hands and turned into gigantic Yin Ghosts, surrounding the Star Beasts and stabbing the trident right into their bodies.

The blood gushing out from the Star Beasts' body quickly dyed the river red and the massive beasts were all being slaughtered.

While the Star Beasts were powerful against massive warships like the Louchuan Warships, they were all powerless before the Yin Ghosts; the Star Beasts were absurdly powerful but before Yin Ghosts whose body was in between the void and reality, raw body strength was useless and only skills could hurt these Yin Ghosts.

However, as strange creatures born within the Heavenly River, these Star Beasts were all deprived of intelligence so they were unable to cultivate at all, which rendered them powerless against these Yin Ghosts.

Meanwhile, Lou Zhengshi's fleet was already close and after seeing the flag codes signaled from his fleet, Yin Fukang's expression changed again and he shouted, "Men, brace yourselves! Their Ghost Gods is coming!"

At this time, the two fleets were not very far apart and when Zhong Yue looked towards the opposite, he saw one after another Ghost Gods leaping from the warships and diving into the water.

The Wei Shen Race was one of the many clans that stood on the Heaven Court's side. Though not as strong as the sovereign, monarch and other races, they were extremely powerful in the water and in the Hell Reincarnation, they could even triumph against even monarch races!

In this universe, there were various races and each of them excelled in different fields, once used properly, they could all unleash strength beyond imagination!

As the commander of the Heavenly River Naval Fleet, Imperial Emperor Lou Zhengshi definitely knew how to draw out the full potential of his fleet. Now, the Ghost Gods were sent out to snipe the Yin Ghosts.

Beneath the water, silent combat erupted. The Yin Ghosts and Ghost Gods fought each other to death and the Yinkang Clan's warships continued launching their attack towards Lou Zhengshi's fleet; though the Yinkang Clan's warships have suffered some losses due to the Star Beasts, most of the warships remained in perfect condition.

On the command ship, Lou Zhengshi gave out an order again and after seeing the flag orders from the opposite side, Yin Fukang hurriedly got the Yinkang Clan's warships to retreat.

"Lou Zhengshi just ordered his men to hurl the Heavenly Fire Celestial Lightning into the water! What a sneaky bastard! Retreat at once!"

Yin Fukang then ordered again, "Spread out the Ghostly Fire Demon Lightning to block them off."

Then, countless Ghostly Fire Demon Lightning rolled out from the cabin door, absorbing the energy in the river and floating underneath the water.

On the other hand, the Heavenly River Naval Fleet spread out the Heavenly Fire Celestial Lightning, which also absorbed the energy in the river and awaited their prey.

This time, upon seeing the retreating Yinkang Clan's warships, Lou Zhengshi dosed off for a second and he smirked again, "Yinkang Clan had deciphered our naval flag code. Change to the other flag code!"

After changing the flag code, Lou Zhengshi immediately ordered the Mine-Sweeping Flying Chariots to attack. On the flying chariots, the soldiers traveled quickly on the water surface and wherever they passed, the Ghostly Fire Demon Lightning detonated, raising huge waves on the river.

With the immense speed, as the flying chariots detonated the mines, they were already out of the blasting zones and only a few of the chariots and the men on it were blast into pieces.

The Heavenly River Naval Fleet continued the mine sweeping progress and after having the new flag code seen through by Yin Fukang, Lou Zhengshi changed to another one and smirked, "Yinkang Clan is indeed cunning. They must have snuck into the command post and stolen the secrets in our flag codes. But how are you going to have information on all 360 flag codes of our Heavenly River Naval Fleet?"

On the other hand, Yin Fukang sweated after being unable to understand the new flag code, "I don't understand that new flag code! Banner officers! Summon every strategist here to decipher their flag codes!"
