The immortals of Huiyuan Star have ordered an evacuation as the Buddhist sect attacks. While some prepare to flee and destroy anything they cannot take, others focus on operating the teleportation array. Zhu Bin and Ming Xin refuse to join the fight, prioritizing their own escape plan. As the planet becomes a battlefield, the evacuation begins, but the limited time and capacity of the teleportation array create chaos.

Huiyuan Star, Cross-Border Teleportation Array Base

The base’s firepower was fully activated because a large number of Buddhist cultivators appeared in the sky. In this battle, many powerful Buddhist cultivators joined, along with many mid and low-level Buddhist cultivators.

They aimed to wipe out an entire celestial gate’s planet. Strong against strong, ordinary Buddhist cultivators against ordinary Buddhist cultivators, so the number of Buddhist cultivators was quite considerable. At a glance, all you could see were shining golden bald heads, rampantly slaughtering cultivators.

"Where are the kind and gentle Buddhist cultivators? Aren’t they just like us?"

Zhu Bin looked at the war in front of him and sneered. A cultivator never claims to be a good person, so what is the difference between the current Buddhist cultivator and a cultivator?

"Master, the second teleportation array is ready to be activated at any time."

"Activate it. Let those Star Ships go in first, and let the completed ones rush ahead."

Zhu Bin nodded. Some planets have strong power and still have Star Ships, and one starship can carry hundreds of thousands of people, which is much more efficient than sending them one by one.

"Yes, Master."

The disciple accepted the order and quickly sent out messages and played broadcasts. Some Star Ships that were closer rushed desperately toward the base, and the cultivators from those planets also stepped up to cover them.

The battlefield gradually shifted, and the pressure on the base’s defenses increased. The Buddhist cultivators used many methods. Their Sea-crossing Ark also had God Slaying Crossbows, which were not worse than the heavy artillery of the base. Moreover, spiritual talismans were freely used without concern.

High-level cultivators rarely used spiritual talismans or God Slaying Crossbows in battle, as these things posed little threat to them. However, mid- and low-level cultivators still used them often.

"One ship, two ships, three ships…"

"Almost done, the cultivators can go now."

Zhu Bin was watching the battlefield closely. About five Star Ships entered the teleportation array, and he quickly ordered the cultivators to go in. A large group of prepared cultivators rushed into the teleportation array.

The cultivators were very fast, and since the Stargate of the teleportation array was big enough to let at least hundreds of people enter at the same time, the number of cultivators at the base was quickly decreasing.

"What a tragic scene; many high-ranking officials from the Tianyuan Star Domain are going to die."

Ming Xin watched the battlefield. The high-ranking officials defending fell under great pressure, blocking the Buddha sect with a smaller force, and they were far outnumbered and weaker.

"We will leave during the third opening. The rest will be handled by the robots. Tell them the energy storage is filled with spirit stones; it is enough to open a fourth and fifth time."

"Yes, Master."

"Is the self-destruct program installed?"

"It is installed. It is set for two days later, which will be about the right time."

"That’s good."

Zhu Bin nodded. After the teleportation array is activated, it needs some time to charge. According to this setup, there is still time for the fifth teleportation array to activate, but whether something will go wrong, they cannot guarantee.

"Buddhist cultivators from the Bodhisattva Realm are attacking us."

At first, the Buddhist sect avoided attacking the base because they sensed Zhu Bin and the others and knew there were many skilled fighters here. The base’s defense was also extremely strong.

However, as more and more cultivators escaped through the teleportation array, the Bodhisattvas could no longer hold back. They could tolerate a small number of enemies escaping, but not too many.

"You all don’t go out to fight. Let the people from Tianyuan Star Domain handle it. If they don’t resolve it, the reinforcements won’t be able to come in. At that time, don’t blame me."

Zhu Bin said calmly, showing no intention to take action. He had already sensed that these Bodhisattvas rushing over seemed to be intentionally put there by someone. The people from Tianyuan Star Domain wanted to force them to act to relieve some pressure from Tianyuan Star Domain. After all, the base had two Transmigration Stage experts and over a dozen Tao Achieving individuals. This was a very strong force.

Zhu Bin was not worried that the base’s formations would be broken. By now, he had become the strongest Formation Master among cultivators. It was very hard for Tiannan and Tianbei Star Domain to find a Formation Master who could match him. The formations he carefully set up were extremely solid and not easily broken.

Tianbei Star Domain, Taibai Star

"Brother, something is wrong! The teleportation array was attacked, and it is broken!"

Taoist Friend Di, who was fighting, received bad news: the Buddhist forces split and attacked the teleportation array, causing its destruction.

"When will it be fixed? When will help arrive?"

Taoist Friend Di quickly asked. The troops in Tianbei Star Domain were coming in groups, and some had not yet arrived. The key was that several groups had come, but there weren’t many left. Even if they opened the Stargate, it would take a long time for them to arrive.

"The people from Blue Star said it would take at least a day. They are already arranging for urgent repairs."

"Tell them to hurry! Go to the main hall immediately and inform the master. We need the forces from Tiannan Star Domain to move; we cannot hold on much longer."

Taoist Friend Di said, as the Buddhist attacks were very fierce. The Space Battleship was still in a tense standoff, with no clear winner, and they were struggling to withstand the Buddhist onslaught.

"Brother, the mission is complete. The cross-border teleportation array of Taibai Star has dimmed; I did not force my way through."

Ci’en has returned. He led the attack on the cross-border teleportation array, using many powerful bombs made from Mahayana Star materials. They did not break the base of the teleportation array, but the strong vibrations still damaged many small parts.

Overall, the cross-border teleportation array is a delicate thing. The more intricate something is, the more fragile it is. He knows how to deal with it; there is no need to break through directly. They just need to damage some small parts, and then the people there will be afraid to teleport and must go for repairs.

"Good, news has come from the Tianyuan Star Domain. They have reached Huiyuan Star and are just one planet away. When that happens, the Buddhist sect from Tianyuan Star Domain will come over, and we just need to hold them off."

Bodhisattva Hui Kong said that throughout the battle, they have mostly followed the Buddhist sect’s plan. The enemy’s reactions have all been within their expectations.

The only shortcoming is that the Space Battleship did not achieve a direct victory. Both sides have suffered similar losses, about half, and if they continue fighting, they may harm each other and end up destroyed.

But even so, they can accept it. As long as they occupy Taibai Star and plunder its resources to make up for those losses, they can ease the people’s anger. If they fail, the Buddhist sect’s rule over Mahayana Star could collapse.

So now, they have only one goal: to win.

A day quickly passed. When the cross-border teleportation array at Taibai Star was repaired and reopened, the first people to arrive were from Canglan Star and Blue Star. They came from Tianyuan Star Domain and brought news from there.

"What? The Tianyuan Star Domain is finished?"

Taoist Friend Di learned that the Tianyuan Star Domain was preparing to leave the entire Star Domain. He almost fainted when he realized a terrible outcome: if the Buddhist forces from the Tianyuan Star Domain came, they would be doomed.

"Quick, report to the master! At any cost, please bring the people from the Tiannan Star Domain to help us fight!"

Taoist Friend Di shouted urgently. It was a time for life-saving actions. No matter the cost, they had to call for reinforcements. If they didn’t get help soon, it would be too late. Without life, they would have nothing.
