Faced with Ding Lingdang’s fury, Bai Kaixin had nothing to say. He tried to resist for the last time in vain. “But—but if we march out recklessly like this, our rear will be extremely empty. Every Sector will be open to attack. The enemy will only need one light troop to launch a sneak attack and occupy our nest easily!

“Even if we don’t go all out, can we really resist the enemy when they are marching close and all our soldiers are hiding in our hometown?

Sure enough, Ding Lingdang laughed indifferently. “In the game of three sides, for the weakest side, offense is the best defense. The number of our starships is the smallest in the first place. If we distribute our starships evenly to eight or nine Sectors, we will be on guard everywhere. We will simply be live targets in the eyes of the enemy. Only by concentrating all our strength into an invincible iron fist and ruthlessly punching out can we win a chance of survival and seek survival in death!

“I’ve made up my mind. Is there anything else, Chief of Staff Bai?”

Nothing else.

“This is… too reckless!”

Bai Kaixin roared helplessly from the bottom of his heart again, but he still carried out his duty as the chief of staff of the federal army to the letter. Just as Ding Lingdang had asked, almost every sampan of the federal army that could perform a space jump had been captured in only several days. The armed forces and the crew members aside, the scene was quite impressive

It was not just because of Ding Lingdang’s aggressiveness, nor was it because it was the parliament’s decision. Soldiers’ duty was to obey orders. More importantly…

Bai Kaixin narrowed his eyes and gazed at the flank of the fleet. Taking the orbit of the fourth planet as the standard plane, on the left side of the fleet, a glittering saber was rushing close. The scattered brilliance of thousands of destroyers seemed to suggest that the stars in the universe had been slashed apart by the saber.

It was Bai Xinghe’s fleet.

Bai Xinghe was one of the original proponents and the main schemer of the insane military adventure.

“Boss Bai… I’ll believe you for now.” Bai Kaixin clenched his fists. The frown on his face suddenly disappeared, and his lips curled into a smile that could not be described with words. He mumbled in a voice that only he could hear, “After all, no matter how much you conned him, you wouldn’t have sabotaged your own son, would you?”

“Is this the center of the sea of stars?”

On ‘Kunlun’, the flagship of the second fleet of the Federation’s expedition army, which had been excavated from the North Pole and was even more advanced and powerful than Prairie Fire, Peng Hai, the Fire Ant King, Wu Mayan… Almost all the Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators and experts of the federation were gathered. They were deeply awed by the boundless view in the center of the universe and could not help but exclaim.

Even the seasoned experts who had been through life-and-death battles for many years were somewhat nervous. The greatest and most thrilling military adventure in the history of the Star Glory Federation had almost all the starships of the federation on the line. 30% of the representatives, including Ding Lingdang, the Speaker of Parliament, had joined the battle.

There was no victory or defeat. There was only life and death. If the expedition army suffered a crushing defeat, the homeland of the federation in the rear would be like a hedgehog that had been skinned. It would have to shiver in the gloomy cosmic storm and freeze to death. There would be no way to resist at

all.

Although the previous strategical simulations had not been too bad, and the enemy had been attracted by Lei Chenghu’s flagship as bait and stepped into the trap cooperatively, it was still a powerful fleet in the center of the sea of stars after all. It was the last combat ability of the families of the four electors who had ruled the imperium for five hundred years. If the enemy was desperate and decided to counterattack before their death, would the federal soldiers who had gone through the trouble of an expedition be able to survive the test?

No one was confident. “Hey, there’s no need to be so nervous. Isn’t this the moment that we’ve been looking forward to?”

Fiend Blade Peng Hai, Li Yao’s senior brother, rubbed his stubbled head and grinned. “Shocking the sea of stars, trampling over the universe, and letting every star in the center of the sea of stars hear our name… This is the greatest glory for cultivators! All this time, I’ve been imagining this kind of scene, but even in my dreams, I never dared to dream that it could actually be realized by me. I originally thought that I would at least have to wait for my son or grandson’s generation before they could march into the center of the sea of stars in an imposing manner. “Thanks to Li Yao and the support of billions of citizens of the federation, we are now standing here and enjoying the dream. Are we going to disgrace our hometown?

“Hehe. In the eyes of the high and mighty nobles and the Immortal Cultivators in the center of the sea of stars, we are nothing but barbarians in the desolate land at the edge of the sea of stars. In that case, fellow Cultivators, let’s show off our valiance as warriors of the barbarians and march forward unstoppably, just like them!

Peng Hai pointed at the hologram.

The light beam displayed the situation of the Giant Soldiers’ workshop deep inside ‘Kunlun’.

Yan Liren, Han Baling, Master Bitter Cicada, Qi Zhongdao… The out-and-out ‘barbarians’ from the ancient sacred world were not nervous at all. They were doing the final maintenance and debugging on their respective Giant God Soldiers, loading the last flying sword and filling the last drop of fuel before they crawled into the spiritual residences of the Giant God Soldiers.

Hum! Hum! Hum! Hum!

One after another, the ultimate war weapons from hundreds of thousands of years ago that had been sealed for a long time sat up. They were humming in excitement in the gaps of their joints.

They were truly fearless.

After all, they had been ‘traveled’ from the ancient times. There was no difference between the citizens of the federation and those of the imperium in the eyes of the ancient Cultivators.

In Yan Liren’s words, “Do the Immortal Cultivators in the center of the sea of stars have two heads waiting for me to chop off?”

The scene made Peng Hai and many other powerful federal parliamentarians laugh.

“Let’s go and make our preparations. Don’t forget that, thanks to the ancient sacred world and the secret realms of Kunlun, the Star Glory Federation has the highest density of Giant God Soldiers in the entire universe. Let the ignorant Immortal Cultivators welcome the storm of Giant God Soldiers!”

“This is the center of the sea of stars?”

Not just the top experts of the federation such as Peng Hai and Yan Liren, even the ordinary soldiers on every inconspicuous sampan were gazing at the brilliant sea of stars and exclaiming, “As expected of the heart of the universe. The stars in the universe are much more splendid than ours!”

While they were exclaiming, their subordinates were not slow at all. All the officers and soldiers knew that they were in a hurry to join the battle. Many starships and carriers were not fully prepared. One third of them did not even have enough fuel and ammunition. They were merely bluffing.

Only with a hundred times more courage and proficiency could he make up for the lack of equipment and resources.

One batch of warriors after another put on their crystal suits and breathed heavily behind the iron armor.

One vacuum armed shuttle after another entered the launch tubes, ready to be launched like cannonballs.

The damage control team, the medical team, the maintenance team… All the support teams were in position, too.

Of course, the staff and communication officers on the bridge of countless starships were all occupied, too.

One of them was Meng Jiang’s grandson, Meng Xiaolang, who had just graduated from the military school and joined the expedition army as an intern.

As an apprentice staff officer, Meng Xiaolang knew the complexity and difficulty of the military adventure better than anybody else. It was almost a miracle that the federal army was able to jump to the center of the sea of stars across billions of stars in only several days. Even he, the insignificant advisor, had burnt almost all his brain cells for the miracle.

Right now, he could only hope for a bigger miracle. Suddenly, cheers echoed all over the starship. It was Ding Lingdang, the Speaker of Parliament of the federation who had come to the frontline in person, declaring the final battle cry before the assault of the entire expedition army.

Surprisingly, Ding Lingdang in the 3D light beam was not wearing the uniform of the commander-in-chief according to the tradition of the federation. Instead, she was wearing a mustard suit that was as red as fire and as thin as a cicada’s wing, highlighting her tall, muscular, and powerful body.

Meng Xiaolang was immediately attracted by Ding Lingdang’s burning aura. This year’s Speaker of Parliament was everyone’s idol, especially the hot-blooded teenagers. Almost everyone liked her.

“All soldiers of the federal army, this is the center of the universe. It is the place where the first batch of modern Cultivators created the Star Ocean Imperium ten thousand years ago under the leadership of the Supreme Emperor. It is also the place where the Republic of Star Ocean established by the Cultivators a thousand years ago fell into darkness.

In the picture, Ding Lingdang slowly clenched her fists, raised her arms, and declared resolutely, “Today, we have come to this place as the rightful heirs of the Star Ocean Imperium, as the avengers of the Star Ocean Imperium, and as the unyielding defenders of the human civilization. We have come to the center of the sea of stars, to the heart of the human civilization, and we will certainly brand this ancient and sacred land with our everlasting glory!

“Look, the enemy is right in front of us. They’ve been so shocked by our appearance that they’re shivering and unable to maintain the most basic formation.

“Then, pull out your blades, hold your steel guns, and summon your courage… Aren’t the Immortal Cultivators most particular about ‘the weak are prey to the strong, and the winner is king? Let’s let these arrogant, blind fellows open their dog eyes and see clearly who is truly ‘strong! “Prepare the artillery. Attack formation No. 3, speed to maximum. I will lead the charge with the ‘Great Fire Dragon Sparrow… The federal army, march forward and crush all the enemies blocking our way in the future!”
