Mo Xingyun did not ask rashly and immediately began fighting with Huo Fenghuang. He chose the same strategy as her–using his troops to test the water. As such, he snapped his finger to summon his legion.

So, an army with black armor and red eyes manifested in the starry sky. The stench of immense karmic sins emanated from their bodies, followed by intense bloodlust and the desire to swallow everything between heaven and earth.

After seeing her opponent, Huo Fenghuang was calm and began managing the battle. She had a few generals, but they were not Heaven Chosens by any account. And this was by design.

The Ancient Clans are united but also competing against each other. And with so many different clans, it's virtually impossible to be in perfect harmony–unless one clan has the absolute strength of an Eternal Supreme.

The complexity of the Ancient Clan is where some of Huo Fenghuang's trouble originated. Many did not like how she broke the taboo and absorbed someone else's bloodline. Even though the council pardoned her crime and gave her authority, many clans despised her actions and actively opposed her.

This confrontation resulted in Huo Fenghuang having to be careful about whom to choose to serve as a General.

Secondly, Huo Fenghuang did not trust any of her generals to have the strength equal to even 1-Leaf Immortal Venerable. If someone happened to her and she had a moment of weakness, such a general could betray her and take the opportunity to win the final battle.

In the past Heaven Will Battle, where the concept of King and General was most prominent, it was common for generals to betray their Kings. So, she needed to watch out for these things.

Because of these factors–especially the second one–Huo Fenghuang and many other Heaven Chosens' generals are rather weak. Only a few people with absolute confidence in their strength and trust in the people around them would train mighty generals who are capable of becoming Heaven Chosens on their own.

Huo Fenghuang ordered most of her troops to use [Flame of Purification] to target the sins of these devil cultivators' troops. This tactic worked, but only briefly.

After killing a few hundred soldiers, Mo Xingyun's troops reacted by using a formation that condensed their Karmic Sins into a flame of corruption, corrupting the pureness in the opponent's flame.

Huo Fenghuang then changed tactics. An illusory white tiger appeared above her legion, gathering the power of Slaughter around her. In the short time of this battle, too many people died. Thus, things like Baleful Aura and Slaughter/Killing Qi were everywhere.

With this formation, the troops could use these powers for themselves.

They used the Slaughter Qi between Heaven and Earth to boost their defense, speed, and attacks. With this increase in stats, they became more ferocious and killed as many devils as possible.

However, the opponent was not to be outdone. Mo Xingyun's troops changed formation and generated a terrifying swallowing power, and also absorbed the Slaughter Aura between Heaven and Earth.

This method weakened their opponent by competing with them for slaughter energy while also boosting their physical stats. The situation became a stalemate.

Huo Fenghuang's troops changed tactics for the third time. A mighty and noble Azure Dragon Shadow manifested above them, releasing pressure that could crush anything into oblivion.

The Devil legions responded by using a formation based on Gravity. Mo Xingyun secretly swallowed the 32nd Heavenly Physique, Gravity Collapsing Physique.

With the power of gravity, they offset the pressure of a Sovereign released by the Azure Dragon.

The Azure Dragon Array has two modes of attack–the pressure and absolute control of water. After the first one failed, Huo Fenghuang proceeded to the second one.

So, the legion created a supermassive tsunami to drown their opponent. Sadly, Mo XIngyun once swallowed the owner of the Pure Yin Physique. So, his troops changed formation and released an intense coldness that instantly froze the tsunami.

'Damn it, we keep going in a circle,' thought Huo Fenghuang. Her plan was to overwhelm Mo XIngyun's legions before using them to force her to take action and revealed some of her trump cards. However, her troops were excellent and well-trained.

'Although I haven't lost a single soldier due to the Phoenix Flame's blessing, I've only killed less than a thousand soldiers of her troops.'

A thousand soldiers is nothing to a legion of 100 million. Furthermore, this stalemate might continue forever.

After thinking for a moment, Huo Fenghuang changed tactics again. She ordered her men to use the Black Tortoise Array, blessing them with unparalleled defense.

Then, she ordered them to attack without reservation or fear of any injury. So, with their terrifying healing factors, these troops also became a nightmare.

'She's becoming more aggressive,' thought Mo Xingyun, who felt Huo Fenghuang's emotional state. He knew she had a purpose for targeting him. So, he chose to use a safe and stable approach to determine her objective.

Yin-Yang, Yang is attacking, and Yin is defense. Mo Xingyun ordered his troops to use the power of Yin to bless their defense and confront the enemy.
