Chapter 152: When Time Comes, Heaven and Earth Share the Sam
to chat with Jiang Wang for a few words. She wasn't someone who enjoyed idle chatter.Jiang Wu Xie didn't know if he was truly ignorant or feigning ignorance, or perhaps he simply wanted to disrupt the...The sound of the sea serpent's tread was like a conch shell calling death from the abyss. Low, long, and forlorn.
His gaze swept over the demoralized generals in Haichao's ranks. Ao Huangzhong remained expressionless, merely uttering in a low voice, "The war is not over."
As for Jiang Wang's military capabilities, Ao Huangzhong still lacks a clear understanding to this day. He always feels that his performance fluctuates greatly, and he can only regard it as a kind of elusive style of play.
But Great Qi Empire, even to the entire current human race, the youngest military marquis of honor is a real and substantial honor. The death of the peerless prodigy Yu Guangyuan serves as an emphatic annotation to this point.
Including him, many of the Sea Clan prodigies had always felt that with Fish Broad Abyss's style of madness surpassing even his ancestor, there were only two possibilities. Either he would continue on this path of madness, becoming a terrifying existence that terrified all the powerful individuals in the world. Or, at some moment when everyone was watching, he would meet a spectacular and unimaginable death.

But in fact, Fish Guangyuan's death did not cause much of a stir.
On an unremarkable day, Jiang Wang collided with him, crushing him. The calmness was like a tiny cloud drifting before the Flying Cloud Building ship, shattering at the collision point without even creating much of a ripple.

Even the upheaval that should have been caused by Yu Guangyuan's death remained eerily silent. The notorious Blood King, known for his tyranny, did not stir up chaos in the Myriad Realms as expected.
Thus, Jiang Wang's terror became increasingly apparent!
Ao Huangzhong is willing to support the Dingmao realm, so he naturally has the ambition to compete with Jiang Wang. But from the beginning, his strategy was to avoid a direct confrontation, wear him down, and seize an opportunity.
He had in his hand a set of flagboards inherited from the era when humans and dragons co-ruled, called "The Nine Phantom Dragon Shift Board." The board was composed of nine flags.
With the Dry Dragon in hand, one can freely travel to the landing points of the Nine Phantom Flags.
He crossed the river alone, hiding in the wilds, while he had his subordinates carry the Nine Phantom Flags into the First Sea Nest. He plunged so deep within, all for the opportunity to strike Jiang Wang with a decisive blow.
Although he was forced to make a move ahead of schedule because the protective formation around the nest couldn't hold, he didn't mind much.
Because he truly saw Jiang Wang as a rival, even the greatest challenge of this journey to bewilder the world. If it were truly easy to succeed, he would find it hard to believe.
He always put himself in the position of a challenger, setting failure as the default from the start.
The loss of five crystal mines without a fight was a price he had carefully considered and believed he could afford. He thought that such a victory would not satisfy Jiang Wang's ambition at all.
A prodigy, a prodigy, achieving fame at a young age, how could one not be proud
Jiang Wu'an achieved great feats on the Qixia battlefield and made a name for himself in the Heavenly Prison world. Could he endure being unable to break even one sea nest in this tiny Dingmao realm
Ao Huangzhong was going to use the six sea nests in this Dingmao domain to repeatedly ebb and flow Jiang Wang's sharpness. He would keep it up until Jiang Wang revealed his true, fatal flaw.
As the saying goes, "It's better to seize the moment and strike with all your might. If you hesitate, you will lose momentum and tire quickly."
When the human army was at its weakest, that was the time when Ao Huang Zhong's brilliance shone.
But if the flaw he expected never appeared, he would simply bear it.
Having already glimpsed the opportunity to become a true king, Yu Guangyu was easily slaughtered. Even under Jiang Wang's personal command, he managed to preserve the vital forces of six sea nests and could still explain himself upon returning.
The same sea and sky, the same chaotic rules.
On this bloody battlefield within the same realm, the pride of humankind and the pride of the sea race dance together.
Over there, the human army was still rotating their meal shifts. On this side, that enormous, ferocious sea nest had already risen into the air and vanished without a trace.
Although Fang Yuyou couldn't understand the scene before him, it didn't prevent him from revering and praising eagerly: "My lord is truly a divine person! Leading his troops for the first time in the bewildering world, he defeated the renowned general Ao Huangzhong without a single battle. This is the strategy of a superior general!"
Jiang Wang thought he was pretty good at flattery, but he was very picky about other people's flattery. He waved his hand dismissively and said, "Stop wasting my time with this nonsense. Go see how many Mithril Crystals you can loot from the mine."
Fang Yuan was astonished, "Aren't we going to occupy this place With the mine as a base, if we request reinforcements, we can quickly build another floating island."
When the Fourth Sea Nest migrates, it will inevitably take all the luminescent crystals it can carry. Simply scavenging the mine will yield limited results. Protecting this golden goose is the only way to ensure a worthwhile journey.

“The Yellow Dragon Bell cannot be destroyed, and its ownership is still undetermined.” Jiang Wangdao said: “Our manpower and time should not be wasted here.”
Even hanging a sword at the door, without any loss, forcing Ao Huang Zhong away, getting a Mithril mine cave, it's hard to say that there is any feeling of satisfaction.
He offered sacrifices to Yu Guangyuan with fish, personally led a large army, and maneuvered through the territory of Ding Mao. What he sought was nothing more than to thoroughly sweep this area and build a human camp with his own hands.
But even with Ao Huang Zhong's carefulness, this goal was practically declared a failure. No matter how valiant he was, his opponent had hung up their sign of surrender.

Jiang Wang did not pursue the migrating Fourth Sea Nest. Instead, he followed the established rhythm and led his army in an orderly manner to the Third, Fifth, Sixth, and Second Sea Nests, erecting silent monuments at each one and calling out the names of those who had fallen.
Since Ao Huang Zhong is prepared to bear the losses, let's realize these losses first.
Though Jiang Wang didn't intend to station himself in any mithril mine, the profit was quite limited, as long as it could inflict losses on the enemy, it was worth going.
As the military saying goes, "When you attack an enemy for one hour, they will fight for twenty."
What one learns from books is always superficial. Only by comparing it with what one experiences in the field, and applying the teachings of military strategists, can one truly grasp the profound wisdom of the ancients. This makes me increasingly appreciative of their insights.
The human forces in the Dingmao realm were not strong enough. Holding onto the current four floating islands was already their limit. Even if the sea race gave up more magic crystal mines, they would still be unable to hold on.
Calling for more resources to build floating islands is futile. Deploying more troops recklessly into the Uncertain Realm, where storms rage and shadows dance, would be a grave mistake.
The forces of the Six Sea Nests converged in this realm, unharmed. Jiang Wang knew that once he left, Ding Mao Floating Island would immediately face a fierce counterattack.

But there's no other way.
The Ao Huangzhong's turtle tactic wasn't aesthetically pleasing, but it was impregnable.
Unless he could smash this turtle shell with a mountain-crushing hammer, unfortunately, the gap in strength between him and Ao Huangzhong wasn't that large.
Moreover, now that the six Sea Nests are gathered together, the army commanded by Ao Huangzhong is probably already over 50,000 strong.
Even with a main force of sea beast warriors, under the command of a renowned general like Ao Huangzhong, Jiang Wang had no guarantee of victory. Therefore, he erected the Silent Monument outside the gathering area of the six sea nests, and the army ceased its advance.
After a few assaults on the Sea Nest, He failed to draw out Ao Huangzhong. He understood that the limit of this campaign...was probably right here.
He has decided to withdraw his troops.
Although he was the esteemed Marquis Wu'an of Great Qi, leading his troops personally, he failed to capture even a single Sea Nest or occupy a Mistcrystal Cave. This would inevitably lead to criticism.

This is what's meant by a reputation that precedes one.
But fame was never in Jiang Wang's considerations.
Having witnessed the true art of war wielded by renowned generals, he possessed a clear understanding of his own military capabilities. When deploying troops, his guiding principle was "to always retain a counter-attacking force and maintain the possibility of retreat." While strategically aiming to clear the Dingmao region, his specific execution prioritized preserving his forces.

Ao Huangzhong viewed him as a major enemy and was extremely careful around him. He was also very wary of Ao Huangzhong. He would never view Ao Huangzhong's caution as weakness. A truly weak Hai Clan general wouldn't dare to come alone to aid the Ding Mao realm after Yu Guangyuan died in battle.
Six ferocious sea nests, intertwined with each other, formed a solitary fortress in the Dingmao realm. The blood qi of the Haizu army almost surged into clouds.
A military strategist, with a glance, can discern the exact number of troops. The ebb and flow of celestial energy, the surging of blood qi, these are all crucial indicators. Of course, these aspects are also often used to mislead opponents.
Of course, *Shí Mén Bīng Lü* also contains Li's unique art of commanding troops.
Jiang Wang considered himself unlearned and made an educated guess about the size of Ao Huang Zhong's army, but he wasn't certain it was true.
He silently watched the blood qi for a while, letting out a soft sigh in his heart. This was his first time commanding a large army into battle. Though he hadn't failed, it was hard to say he had succeeded either. In a situation where his own strength held the advantage, he failed to truly defeat an opponent like Ao Huang Zhong, and failed to truly establish control over the Ding Mao realm. He couldn't help but feel some regret.
But these regrets, upon reflection, were instantly cut away.
Shimen Binglue says: The hatred of one man should not move an army of three. Now, the resentment of one man should even less be taken lightly as a cause for moving an army of three.
He then gave the order in a low voice: "Send a message to all three armies—"
Fang Yuyou was both a personal guard and a banner official, in regular uniform awaiting orders.
Suddenly, a scout arrived and interrupted Jiang Wang's orders: "My Lord, there are two individuals claiming to be San Xing Gong Zhu Qingru and Ding Hai Lou Zhu Biqiong who request an audience outside the camp!"
>
The scout said, "It should be correct. There are cultivators from the Diaohai Lou among the soldiers, and they recognize Miss Zhu."
The troops from the four floating islands in the Dingmao Realm, were all unified under Jiang Wang's command. Among them were not only soldiers from Qi. Jiang Wang treated everyone equally. "Come quickly!" Jiang Wang said urgently.
Fang Yuyou saw the frown on his lord's brow ease and relax, unable to hide his joy. He pondered inwardly, what exactly was this joy for
As the commander of the personal guard, I should share the worries of my lord.
The true teachings of the Sanxing Palace and the true teachings of the Dianghai Lou, who knows, compared to Miss Ye, who is more outstanding, and who is more important in the Marquis's heart
At that time, in the demon world, Miss Ye asked quite a few questions. She insisted that Lord Hou never frequented brothels, especially detested red sleeves inviting guests, which was very much in line with Lord Hou's trust. What if these Miss Zhuo and Miss Zhu also asked something How should she respond then The one from the Sanxing Palace... shouldn't be easy to fool....
Jiang Wang had absolutely no idea what a thrilling and complex inner world his loyal and reliable personal guard commander possessed. His joy, of course, came from the heart.
It's not entirely about meeting old friends.

Now he is at a standstill, unable to advance or retreat. Zhu Biqiong is one of the most powerful figures in the outer courtyard, and Zhuo Qingru is even stronger, being a powerful god from the sacred land of the Fa family.
>
To run into them at this time is like hitting the pillow when you're sleepy. This is the perfect time to smash open the tortoise shell of Ao Huang Zhong!
If the commander was not moved easily, wielding the weight of three armies, he had to be extremely cautious. He had already flown outside the formation to greet reinforcements personally. Soon after, Zhu Biqiong in a fishing sea tower robe and Zhu Qingru in an ordinary long shirt walked side by side, setting foot on the ship. They weren't women who stood out because of their appearance, but each possessed an extraordinary air, distinct from ordinary people.

Jiang Wang greeted them enthusiastically: "Dao You Zhu! Dao You Zhuo! What a coincidence to meet you here"
Zuo Qingru gazed at the distance, seemingly observing the Sea Clan army's movements. In reality, she was carefully observing Jiang Wang and Zhu Biqiong with her peripheral vision. She casually said, "I set off from Huai Island, riding a Dragon Fishing Boat to the Realm of Confusion. Since Zhu Daoist was also coming here, I accompanied her. Besides, it's convenient to... take a look at the Realm of Confusion. Let Zhu Daoist tell us, she chose the route."
The Legalist school's secret arts were extraordinary. Jiang Wang, long aware of the importance of gaze, had failed to notice Zhuo Qingru's concern and merely smiled towards Zhū Bìqióng.
Zhubi Qiong's complexion was calm as she spoke in a soft voice, "Senior Sister Zhuo carries the expectations of the Fa family and wants to travel and learn from others all over the world. So I will take her to experience the prowess of the Sea Clan's prodigies. We didn't deliberately choose this path; we happened to arrive in this realm and saw Lord Wu'an's banner, so we boldly came to visit—"
Finally, she looked into Jiang Wang's eyes: "I wonder if I am being presumptuous"
It is not easy to find a specific goal in the bewildering realm. Firstly, the rules are chaotic and there is no sense of direction. Secondly, powerful enemies appear frequently, making it difficult to remain calm. Jiang Wang himself has been delayed and held accountable; how could he not know this
Well, that's fortune for you!

"Of course not!" Jiang Wang laughed loudly, "I've been waiting for reinforcements with bated breath! Come, come—"
He waved his hand, beckoning Zhu Qingru and Zhū Bì Qióng to join him at the bow of the ship. He pointed excitedly toward the patch of darkness on the horizon. "Do you see that shadow The six sea nests of the Dingmao Realm are connected together right now, with General Ao Huangzhong guarding them. I want to break through but cannot!"
He spoke earnestly: "To be frank, before your arrival, I had already prepared to retreat!"
Zhu Qingru turned around in some surprise, and only then did she truly pay attention to the battle: "You forced Ao Huangzhong to abandon five mineshafts, trapping him with six sea nests"
The Netherworld is also a key battleground for the Three Realms' tribal conflicts.

Famen Zhenren Xu Wuming has been residing in Tianjing Kingdom for several years. As a direct disciple of the Judi Palace, she is naturally well-informed about the situation in the realm of illusions.
She was very clear about what kind of being Ao Huang Zhong was, which is why she was surprised by the current state of the battlefield.
Compared to Ao Huangzhong, who was separated by a sea of the Myriad Realms, she knew more about Jiang Wang. She knew that Jiang Wang came from humble beginnings and wasn't particularly skilled in military strategy. Although he achieved great military exploits on the Qixia battlefield, his success in leading troops into battle actually relied heavily on Chongxuan Sheng.
He was merely a Wuanhou and a Champion Marquis, both prodigies shining brightly. They were so dazzling that many overlooked the brilliance of Zhongxuan Sheng, the Heir Apparent Duke of Bo Wang.
In terms of military strategy, Chongxuan is undoubtedly the most gifted individual! Now, Jiang Wang, relying solely on his military acumen, manages to suppress Ao Huangzhong
Zuo Qingru couldn't help but distrust the intelligence network of the Sanxing Palace.
Jiang Wang earnestly said, "My strength lies in personal bravery. In terms of military strategy, I am far inferior to Ao Huang Zhong. It wasn't my intention to force him into this situation. He refused to give me any opportunity."
He didn't disguise his desire to use Zhu Qingru's power to attack the Sea Clan, but he also didn't exaggerate the situation, refusing to allow the other party to make a misjudgment.
Attacking Ao Huangzhong's stronghold, Hai Chao, would certainly not be a simple task.
He needed to explain the hardship, explain the danger, only then would he make his request and allow the other party to make a decision.
"Attacking the Sea Clan is the righteousness of humankind." Bamboo Biqiong had already stated, "Martial Duke An, if you have any requests, Bamboo will do whatever I can."
Zuo Qingru glanced at her and thought to herself that the previous sentence was unnecessary. After a moment of contemplation, she asked, "Zuo doesn't know military strategy, but I understand that attacking a city is often a matter of soldiers sacrificing their lives... How confident is Marquis Wu'an"

Jiang Wangping said calmly: "If it weren't for the two of you, I wouldn't have a single chance of success. I am truly caught between heaven and earth, with nothing else to rely on. The two of you are like weights of ten thousand jin. If you join my army, breaking through will be easy."
He held a sword in one hand, raised his head and eyebrows, showing a rare display of heroism: "At this time, the Silence Monument is sealed, and the Ao Huang Bell does not know its inside or outside. Sweeping away the sea races from this realm is just the right time!"
"What I'm considering now is... how to keep Ao Huangzhong!"
