Chapter 2088: Hall of Stellar Time! Tenfold Time Acceleration! (Part 2)

Her cultivation naturally advanced to the Initial Realm of the Nascent Soul Stage.Time quietly slipped away in this tense yet fulfilling closed-door cultivation.
After three days passed in the outside world.
The Star Soul, controlling the Dragon Nest and constantly monitoring external conditions, suddenly had a change in its perpetually unchanged expression.
It raised its head, its gaze seeming to penetrate the endless void, looking far into the distance.
"Have they come..."
Its voice carried a chilly coldness.
Star Dragon Nest, core control room.
The figure of the Star Soul silently stood in front of the control panel, and suddenly, a region among the simulated vast starry sky above lit up with a piercing red dot.
The dot was approaching their location at an extremely fast speed.
"Master, an unknown fleet is rapidly approaching the space turbulence area outside the Ancient Star Ruins."
The voice of the Star Soul rang out simultaneously in all three closed-door cultivation chambers.
"Distance: thirty thousand star miles."
"Estimated time of arrival: an hour."
In the chamber, Luo Qingchen, who was refining the Black Dragon Sword sheath, suddenly opened his eyes!
He glanced down at the sword sheath in his hand, which had already changed dramatically.
The originally simple-looking sword sheath was now entirely pitch black, its surface covered with mysterious star patterns, with faint flows of spatial power, its aura ten times stronger than before!
"So, they finally came."
Luo Qingchen stood up, his eyes devoid of panic, instead flickering with a cold fighting spirit.
He took a step forward and instantly disappeared from the chamber.
In the next second, he reappeared in the core control room.
Almost simultaneously, Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan also ended their closed-door cultivation and appeared beside him.
The aura of the two women was several times stronger than three days ago, evidently having gained tremendous results.
"What’s the situation?" Luo Qingchen asked directly.
"The enemy has three warships, forming a triangular formation, moving quickly."
With a wave of Star Soul’s hand, the enemy’s image was clearly displayed on the central 3D star map in the control room.
The three warships were entirely crafted from an unknown black metal, shaped menacingly, like three giant beasts lurking in the starry sky.
Countless blood-red demonic runes were carved on the hulls, with wisps of black air emanating from them, engulfing the surrounding starlight.
At the prow of the largest warship in the lead, a giant flag hung.
The flag bore a skull emblem formed from twisted shadows, exuding a sinister aura that made the heart palpitate.
"That’s the Temple of Shadow’s emblem!" Luo Qingchen’s pupils slightly contracted.
He had seen this emblem in the memory of the silver-masked Demonic Cultivator.
"Can you detect their strength?"
"Yes." Star Soul nodded, "The enemy warships have formations to shield Divine Sense detection, but they cannot hide from the Star Domain Law scan of the Dragon Nest."
"The scan reveals that there are three hundred and twenty-seven cultivators on the three warships."
"Among them, three hundred are Nascent Soul Stage cultivators, and twenty-five are at the Divinity Transformation Stage."
"The two leaders are at the Refining Stage of Divinity Transformation."
Hiss!
Upon hearing this lineup, even the well-prepared Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan couldn’t help but take a sharp breath.
Twenty-five Divinity Transformation Stage!
And two Refining Stage powers leading the way!
What does this signify?
Such a force could easily sweep across the entire East Continent and destroy any Sect!
And according to the silver-masked Demonic Cultivator’s memory, this was merely a "vanguard" dispatched by the Temple of Shadow?
How terrifying, then, would their true elites be?
"Refining Stage of Divinity Transformation..." Luo Qingchen’s face showed no sign of fear.
Although his current strength was only at the peak of the Refining Stage, with various trump cards and mastery over Chaotic Power, he could face off against ordinary intermediate Divinity Transformation Stage cultivators without necessarily losing.
What’s more, this is the Star Dragon Nest!
His home ground!
"They’ve stopped." Su Xiaowan pointed at the star map.
Indeed, the three Demon Path Warships halted when they reached the chaotic space turbulence area outside the Ancient Star Ruins, not daring to advance rashly.
"It seems they also know the dangers of this area." Luo Qingchen sneered.
"What are they doing?" Lin Wan’er asked curiously.
On the star map, the three warships dispersed, occupying three different positions.
Then, a large number of black-clad Demonic Cultivators flew out from the warships.
Under the command of the two Refining Stage powers, they began deploying something in the void.
They took out black Array Flags inscribed with evil runes and planted them into the void.
Each Array Flag staked triggered the surrounding demonic qi, forming an energy node.
Soon, the giant formation prototype covering thousands of miles of starry sky began to slowly take shape.
"Oh no! They’re setting up the ’Heaven-locking Demon Array’!"
Su Xiaowan’s face instantly changed upon seeing the arrangement of those Array Flags.
"Heaven-locking Demon Array?" Luo Qingchen looked at her.
"It’s an extremely domineering sealing type Demonic Formation!" Su Xiaowan’s tone was very solemn, "Once the formation is completed, it not only can completely seal off this space, preventing us from escaping via space jumping, but also continuously extract all energy within the formation, transforming it into the purest demonic qi!"
"By then, this piece of Ancient Star Ruins will become an ideal Demon Realm!"
"In that environment, their strength will be greatly enhanced, while we will be constantly suppressed and weakened!"
"Even more terrifying is that this formation can distort and disrupt the Space Law. They might want to forcibly stabilize that space turbulence and open a safe passage for themselves!"
Upon hearing Su Xiaowan’s analysis, Luo Qingchen’s eyes turned ice-cold.
What a vicious plan!
These guys want to turn this last resting place of the Dragon Clan into their demonic lair!
"We can’t let them succeed!"
Luo Qingchen said resolutely.
He absolutely would not allow anyone to defile this Holy Land.
"Star Soul, what are the odds if we charge out now?"
"If it’s only a frontal collision and without using the ’Nine Dragon Godslaying Array’ and ’War Mode’, the odds are about seventy percent." Star Soul answered calmly.
"But if the two Refining Stage powers do whatever it takes to keep us entangled, it may end up in a stalemate. Additionally, a frontal fight will inevitably consume a large amount of Dragon Nest’s energy."
"I understand." Luo Qingchen nodded.
A hard fight is the worst strategy.
Not only is the consumption huge, but it will prematurely expose the full strength of the Dragon Nest, making the real big fish behind wary later on.
His gaze quickly swept across the star map in the control room, his mind working frantically.
A bold and crazy plan slowly took shape in his mind.
"Since they want to play with formations, then let’s entertain them."
A cold curve curled at the corner of Luo Qingchen’s lips.
"Star Soul, activate the Dragon Nest’s ’Illusion Star Maze’ Formation, completely concealing our presence."
"Su Xiaowan, assist Star Soul in controlling the Dragon Nest’s formation system."
"Our goal is not to fight them head-on."
"But... to lure the enemy deeper!"
"Lure the enemy deeper?"
Lin Wan’er and Su Xiaowan were both puzzled, not understanding what Luo Qingchen meant.
This was already their home base; how would they lure the enemy deeper?
"That’s right." Luo Qingchen’s gaze fell on the star map, on the vast space turbulence area.
This is the best burial ground I’ve prepared for them!"
His plan was simple.
Since the enemy wanted to use the ’Heaven-locking Demon Array’ to stabilize space turbulence, he would turn the tables on them.
He would strike proactively, disrupt their pace, infuriate them, and then lead them into the depths of space turbulence!
There, under the protection of the Star Dragon Nest, they could come and go freely.
While the Demonic Cultivators from the Temple of Shadow, once deprived of formation protection and plunged into the raging space turbulence, would face only one outcome!
That is to be torn into pieces!
