After the Sea God Seal enhanced the Sea Race's bloodlines, their strength significantly increased, boosting their numbers of powerful experts. Meanwhile, the Blue Star Captains, who had been in seclusion, also saw rapid advancements, with one captain even breaking through to the Sky Dome Ship tier, increasing the expedition's formidable strength.

Five years.

It’s been just over five years since the first batch of captains entered this world.

And now, two experts at the Sky Dome Ship level have emerged.

It’s unimaginable, if another few years pass, how many Sky Dome Ship level experts there might be.

There might even be someone who takes the opportunity to reach the pinnacle, becoming the most elite expert in the world.

Thinking of this, Fang Yu was slightly surprised.

The old man’s worries might not be entirely unfounded.

If the Blue Star Captains are left to advance unchecked, a war between the natives and the Blue Star Captains might really break out in the future.

Fang Yu understood very well what these Blue Star Captains were thinking.

Once they have the ability to match this world’s top power, they will certainly become the greatest destabilizing factor.

Fang Yu silently glanced at Wang Yun and Ma Tuo, the two Sky Dome Ships, then nodded slightly.

This matter might just be his own unnecessary worry.

If that day really comes, perhaps his level will have also risen, and he will have the ability to change some things and secure a spot in this great trend.

"For now, the war in the West Qinghai Sea Region is critical. Through this war, I might have the opportunity to advance to Legend and challenge the Sky Dome Ship!"

Fang Yu thought to himself, then turned his gaze to the army ahead, as a divine light flashed in his eyes, he shouted loudly:

"Alright, everyone!"

"Since you are all ready, let’s head for the West Cyan Continent, and march forward!"

"For the future homeland, fight!"

Upon hearing Fang Yu’s words, whether they were from the Sea Race or Blue Star Captains, a strong fighting spirit appeared on their faces.

Everyone raised their weapons and shouted loudly: "Fight! Fight!"

The people of the Sea Race, the women, and children looked eagerly at the warriors ahead, their eyes filled with worry.

But the Sea Race warriors’ eyes were firm as they turned back to their loved ones: "This battle is for a new homeland."

"Once victorious, the master promises to give us a place where we can live peacefully and recuperate."

"In the future, our Sea Race can migrate closer to the coastal sea, no longer needing to live in fear in the Far Deep Sea!"

"With my blood, I fight to secure a future, a peace, for our descendants!"

After hearing what the Sea Race warriors said, the children, women, and the elderly left behind could only look on with reluctance, yet no one dared to stop them.

"Vroom!!"

The sound of massive waves came from the entire sea region.

Fang Yu, leading the way, sailed at the forefront of the formation.

Behind him, the Sea Race, and sea vessels formed a grand procession, following Fang Yu towards the front.

...

"A year ago, I never imagined we would create such momentum today!"

Looking at the army behind him, vast and endless, filled with a momentum to crush everything, Fang Yu couldn’t help but feel an immense heroic spirit rising from within.

This army is unlike the small-scale skirmishes during the Sea Ore Island War or the Divine Hall War, which involved the deployment of only limited military forces that weren’t top tier.

This army, no matter where in this world it is deployed, cannot be ignored, as it is a fearsome torrent and can be considered a leading force on the world’s competitive stage.

Pinnacle unchallenged, the Sky Dome Ship reigns supreme.

And in his army, there are three Sky Dome Ship level experts in total!

Along with other powerful figures, such force could even sweep through some weaker Sea Countries.

Immensely powerful!

"Conquering the West Cyan Continent is a must!"

Fang Yu murmured.

At this moment, a ship bearing the mark of the South Island Navy sped forward at high speed, heading towards Fang Yu’s army to join them.

"Hmm?"

Upon seeing the South Island Navy emblem on the ship’s hull, Fang Yu’s expression shifted, and he spoke loudly: "Is Zhang Zisong back?"

"Lieutenant Colonel, it is I!"

The person in the lead looked at Fang Yu and spoke loudly.

"Very well, Zhang Zisong has returned!"

"Quickly, come aboard my ship for a chat!"

Fang Yu recognized the person as the South Island Navy Commander Zhang Zisong, who followed him before.

Upon reaching the Sea Race territory, Fang Yu had long laid plans, dispatching Zhang Zisong to the West Cyan Continent to gather information.

This person, a legitimate military officer, was rigorously trained and had considerable talent in intelligence gathering and counter-reconnaissance, more reliable than the Blue Star Captains.

At this moment, seeing Zhang Zisong return promptly as the army set out, Fang Yu was both surprised and delighted, quickly inviting Zhang Zisong aboard his ship.

"How is it, Zhang Zisong, what’s the current situation on the West Cyan Continent?"

Fang Yu pulled Zhang Zisong and immediately asked with concern.

"Not too good, Lieutenant Colonel!"

Zhang Zisong’s face was extremely heavy, and he spoke in a deep voice: "Chongyuan has already unified the West Cyan Continent."

"Among the Four Great Spirit Sects, three have already crowned Chongyuan as the Spirit King, and the other twenty-three caves, whether by coercion or enticement, or simply willingly, completely obey Chongyuan’s orders."

Hearing Zhang Zisong’s words, Fang Yu frowned.

Because according to his initial intelligence, among the Four Great Spirit Sects, only the Spirit Pill Sect supported Chongyuan, and among the twenty-three caves, only nine were willing to take orders from Chongyuan.

But, for some reason, after Chongyuan returned this time, he decisively and boldly integrated the West Cyan Continent.

Now this combined force is equally terrifying.

"What about the Alien Race? On the West Cyan Continent, besides the Spiritualists, there’s the Alien Race."

Fang Yu said in a low voice.

Hearing Fang Yu’s words, Zhang Zisong relaxed his tone slightly.

He spoke: "The three major Alien Races, during the past West Cyan unrest, were heavily suppressed by the Duorong Federation’s government which dispatched top experts and troops."

"That battle severely wounded the core strength of the three major Alien Races, now they remain closed off and won’t engage in this war, rest assured, Lieutenant Colonel."

After hearing Zhang Zisong’s words, Fang Yu let out a slight breath of relief.

"But..."

However, before Fang Yu could fully relax, Zhang Zisong suddenly spoke beside him.

Fang Yu shot Zhang Zisong an annoyed look: "Don’t startle me like that, speak quickly if there’s something to say!"

Zhang Zisong wiped a bit of sweat from his forehead and promptly said: "The reason Chongyuan could consolidate so much of the West Cyan Continent so easily is due to a mysterious expert by his side."

"That mysterious expert is powerful, assertive in style, almost immediately eradicating anyone who defied them. Under this person’s overwhelming pressure, the Spirit Sects had no choice but to submit."

"A mysterious expert? Sky Dome Ship level?"

Fang Yu was taken aback.

"Right! Moreover, it’s rumored that this expert is a powerful figure from the Alchemist system, which has drawn considerable hate from many Spirit Sects who openly submit, but harbor great resentment towards Chongyuan’s actions in secret."

"An Alchemist powerhouse?"

Fang Yu’s eyes lit up: "That should be Yuanqi then!"

"Ingenious, ingenious... what’s with Chongyuan’s behavior, mingling with Yuanqi? Although they’re both members of the Peacekeeping Council, if Chongyuan wants to establish prestige among the Spiritualists, he absolutely should not associate with people from the Alchemist system."

Fang Yu was delighted.

Having been in this world for so long, Fang Yu was not unfamiliar with this world’s history.

The Spiritualist era was ended by the Alchemist era.

Even if that were all, it wouldn’t have been so bad since the Sea Ship era similarly ended the Alchemist era, yet Alchemists still remain active today.

The transition of eras back then was far more ruthless than the current Sea Ship era.

The Alchemists carried out an extermination slaughter against the Spiritualists, with over half of the Spiritualist sects dying at their hands, only a few sects fled far into the sea until the advent of the Sea Ship era when they returned to the West Cyan Continent.

Thus, the Spiritualists have a deep-seated hatred against the Alchemists.

Now, even though Chongyuan and Yuanqi mixing together might be fine, as long as they keep low-key and nobody notices, it doesn’t count for much.

But to be so high-profile as to even have Yuanqi act as their enforcer, pressuring these Spirit Sects and caves into submission, doesn’t this provide Fang Yu a huge gap to exploit?

Though adding Yuanqi gives the opponent another Sky Dome Ship level fighter.

But from a war perspective, the opponent’s internal camp has a huge hidden danger and lacks unity.

The benefits from adding one more Sky Dome Ship expert cannot compensate for the internal negative risks.

"Excellent!"

Fang Yu rejoiced internally: "Heaven is helping me!"

But soon after, Fang Yu calmed down again, and a sudden thought crossed his mind as he looked curiously at Zhang Zisong beside him:

"You said... among the Four Great Spirit Sects, one has not yet submitted?"

"What is happening? All the other Spirit Sects and caves submitted, why is this one different?"
