"Fellow Daoist Lu has arrived!" A hearty laugh reached him, and Lu Ye turned to look, finally spotting someone he knew. He promptly clasped his fists: "Fellow Daoist Kang!"

This was none other than Kang Cheng of Indeterminate. Previously, his arm had been broken by a single punch from Yaya, but he had a good temperament and just acted as if nothing had happened. Later, he even took the initiative to befriend Lu Ye.

"I've been wondering when you would return; I didn't expect it to be so soon!" Kang Cheng seemed in a very good mood.

Back when Lu Ye left Indeterminate, he didn't know exactly when he would return. However, since stellar space travel takes considerable time, Indeterminate had prepared for continued waiting. Who could have guessed Lu Ye would come back so quickly?

"Fortunately, everything went smoothly without delays," replied Lu Ye.

Kang Cheng warmly said, "Come, come, let me introduce you to a few of the Sun Blaze senior brothers." As he spoke, he pointed to the woman Lu Ye had seen before, "This is my senior sister, Li Guan of Indeterminate, whom you met last time."

Only then did Lu Ye learn her name, as they had not had a deep conversation before apart from discussing some intelligence about the Insect Race. He then continued on his journey.

Lu Ye immediately paid his respects, and Li Guan nodded slightly.

Kang Cheng then pointed to a stern-faced man beside Li Guan, "This is my senior brother, Ning Bu'ao!"

Indeterminate had three major Sun Blaze practitioners; aside from Jyang Shang, there were Li Guan and Ning Bu'ao. Currently, Jyang Shang was holding the domain, while Li Guan and Ning Bu'ao were here.

Afterwards, Lu Ye was introduced to Luo Xie from the Daluo Galaxy, Bai Jin from the Tranquil Moon Galaxy, and Chen Zong from the Beixuan Galaxy.

Each of them respectfully paid their respects. Sun Blaze practitioners were considered top-tier in this stellar space, worthy of admiration anywhere one would look.

Luo Xie from the Daluo Galaxy was somewhat more amiable than the other Sun Blaze practitioners and spoke a few kind words to Lu Ye. He mentioned Luo Shenzhi, and Lu Ye guessed that he must have heard some remarks from Luo Shenzhi, which made him view Lu Ye favorably. Of course, the reasons also included the All Phenomena Ocean.

At present, Lu Ye was a key figure in the exploration of the All Phenomena Ocean, so even though his cultivation was far inferior to these Sun Blaze practitioners, they all tried their best to be courteous.

Chen Zong from Beixuan was indeed injured, evidently from forcing his way through an insect hive. His complexion was somewhat pale, and there was a faint scent of blood on him.

Sun Blaze experts have nearly perfected their essence and energy, able to recover from ordinary injuries easily. Chen Zong's injury seemed rather severe, and it was uncertain if it would affect his combat abilities.

The attitude of Bai Jin from the Tranquil Moon Galaxy was also quite amicable towards Lu Ye. However, when interacting with this Sun Blaze, Lu Ye always felt something odd, though he couldn't pinpoint exactly what.

Judging from the current lineup, the four galaxies mobilized a total of five Sun Blaze practitioners, with Indeterminate providing two and the other three galaxies one each. Such a strong lineup, assisted by a sizable fleet, was more than sufficient to deal with an insect hive.

According to current intelligence, the insect hive was guarded by only two Sun Blaze insect races, making a victory in this five-to-two matchup seemingly assured.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, are you here alone this time?" Kang Cheng asked. He inquired because he remembered Lu Ye mentioning he would bring some people from the Nine Heavens, yet now only saw Lu Ye by himself, which puzzled him.

Lu Ye replied, "A fleet from our home planet followed, but because the situation here was unclear, I came ahead to scout while the fleet remained in the rear."

Kang Cheng understood, "If that's the case, let your home planet's fleet proceed to Indeterminate first. After the battle here concludes, the four galaxies will discuss the exploration of the All Phenomena Ocean."

Lu Ye nodded, taking out an audio talisman to communicate with Luan Xiao'e, informing her of the situation here.

Luan Xiao'e immediately agreed and led the fleet toward them.

Lu Ye waited in the Central Hub, during which several Sun Blaze practitioners asked him questions, and Lu Ye answered openly.

Under normal circumstances, as a Constellation cultivator, he wouldn't have the privilege to converse face-to-face with Sun Blaze practitioners. It was only because the four galaxies needed him for the upcoming plan that he had this opportunity.

After more than half a day, Luan Xiao'e sent a message back, stating the fleet had arrived near the battlefield. Lu Ye ended his conversations with the Sun Blaze practitioners, offered a word of apology, and left the Central Hub.

Flying out of the massive battleship, Lu Ye headed towards the fleet's location.

Upon meeting, everyone from the fleet stood on one side of the ship's deck, mesmerized by the grandeur of the battle occurring in the distance.

The cultivators from the Three Worlds had never witnessed such spectacle; let alone the Nine Provinces or the Jade Conch cultivators. Feeling the intensity of the battle left them all deeply moved, especially the ultra-large battleship, which proved breathtaking.

"Even among large domains, the difference is stark in the presence or absence of Sun Blaze practitioners," Luan Xiao'e remarked with heartfelt emotion.

Lu Ye smiled, "Don't overthink it, Fellow Daoist. The fleet here is a joint effort of the four galaxies, not belonging to any single one of them."

Luan Xiao'e knew he was comforting her and slowly shook her head, saying, "But they should each have the ability to form such fleets."

Indeed...

Luan Xiao'e composed herself and asked, "What's the situation here now? The insect hive seems to be powerless to resist?"

Lu Ye then recounted the detailed information he knew and said, "The insect hive is destined to be exterminated. Once its defenses are breached, the allied forces of the four galaxies will achieve victory in one fell swoop. The Indeterminate side asked us to take the lead and wait in the Indeterminate World. Once the battle here is over, they'll proceed with us to the All Phenomena Ocean."

Luan Xiao'e was stunned for a moment: "Are all these battleships going to move?"

Lu Ye shook his head: "I don't know, but since they've come to Indeterminate, they should follow along."

Luan Xiao'e was silent, thinking of when the news of the All Phenomena Ocean reached Jade Conch, and they eventually decided to send her leading a hundred people. But compared to the grand strategy of the four galaxies, Jade Conch's decision seemed too petty.

Now, it seems Jade Conch missed a great opportunity. Their relationship with Lu Ye was naturally closer, but outsiders reaped more benefits.

Regret at this moment was pointless.

After some thought, Luan Xiao'e said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, I have an idea."

Lu Ye looked seriously: "Please tell!"

"This grand battle is rare to encounter. Missing it would be a pity. You've mentioned the chaos and conflicts on the All Phenomena Ocean. When we arrive there, establishing ourselves might not be smooth sailing. Perhaps we'll have to fight against the heavens and people. Right now, there's a chance for the Three Worlds cultivators to experience stellar skirmishes early, and it seems there's not much risk involved. What do you think?"

Lu Ye immediately understood her meaning. He hadn't thought of this, considering it was someone else's battle, and they were just passersby. Intervening arbitrarily seemed inappropriate.

Kang Cheng had previously asked him to lead the people to Indeterminate first, undoubtedly fearing casualties in the battle affecting Lu Ye's side.

But some things aren't preventable, as Luan Xiao'e correctly pointed out: such a chance is rare. Participating in this skirmish, even if just cheering from the sidelines, could significantly broaden the horizons of the Three Worlds cultivators, making them more aware of the stellar space's dangers.

Most importantly, they wouldn't bear any risk. The insect hive is already besieged, and breaking through its defenses is only a matter of time. Once broken, it will be a one-sided massacre.

"That's indeed a good idea!" The more Lu Ye thought about it, the more feasible Luan Xiao'e's plan seemed. He pondered briefly and said, "I'll talk to people to see if they permit us to join the battle."

If they don't allow it, then our desire is futile.

However, Lu Ye surmised that the Sun Blaze from the four galaxies wouldn't refuse. Even scraps are meat, and although the Three Worlds fleet's overall strength isn't outstanding, it's still five hundred Constellations and a Moon Jade Late Stage.

Lu Ye quickly returned to the central hub of the super-large battleship and conveyed the matter to Kang Cheng. He chose Kang Cheng instead of those Sun Blaze because Kang Cheng commanded the battle here, while the Sun Blaze were responsible only for the decisive battle.

Kang Cheng said with a smile, "If your galaxy's cultivators are willing to help, that's naturally a good thing. We four galaxies are grateful." He pondered for a moment and said, "Let's do it this way; I see your galaxy has sixteen starboats. We'll divide them according to your original starboat personnel, dispersing them into various battleships. What do you think?"

Starboats can't be effective in such battles; only battleships can. So, Jade Conch cultivators wanting to join must enter the battleships. What they can do is simple—stimulate spirit force into the Array to provide energy for the ship's attacks, thus reducing spirit jade consumption to some extent. Otherwise, relying solely on spirit jade to power the battleship's attacks, even Indeterminate Galaxy wouldn't hold up.

The power from five hundred Constellations could save many spirit jades for the four galaxies, so Kang Cheng wouldn't refuse.

"Fellow Daoist Kang can arrange as needed. Since our Jade Conch Galaxy cultivators decided to join, we'll be part of this battle and follow orders!" Lu Ye expressed his stance.

Several Sun Blaze beside him nodded slightly. They had heard of Lu Ye before, fearing he might leverage his ability to lead them to the All Phenomena Ocean for personal gain. Now it seems this young man is quite commendable.

"Additionally, your galaxy has five Tiger Shark battleships. I'll send some spirit jades over and ask them to provide agile support."

Lu Ye naturally had no issue with such arrangements.

Kang Cheng then called over an Indeterminate Moon Jade and asked him to arrange personnel with Lu Ye.

Shortly, Lu Ye, accompanied by the Indeterminate Moon Jade, arrived at the fleet.

After explaining Kang Cheng's arrangements, Luan Xiao'e expressed no issues, and the fleet moved to the battlefield with the Indeterminate Moon Jade.

Undoubtedly, the Three Worlds cultivators had been briefed by Luan Xiao'e beforehand, so they all appeared enthusiastic, not to mention the least, they could gain insights within a large battleship.
