When the information that Yasenia was being attacked reached the leaders of the allied powers, they quickly rushed over to the Astral Sky Sect even though they were occupied with their own conflicts.
Almost all powers participated in the World War. While not everyone was as active as Yasenia, many focused on slowly expanding their own territories or connecting territories.
For example, the Storm Feathered Harpies had a city-state that was separated from their main territory because the land in the middle was owned by the Nine Devil Puppet Sect. So, during the last few months, they've been slowly expanding their territory while connecting that separated piece of land and placing that zone under their control.
The powers under the Continental Shadows were not as numerous. However, their strength was not low at all. On the contrary, one could argue that they had more individual strength than those from other groups.
Still, even for one of such powers, defending the Harpy race's concentrated attacks in a corner of their territory while their main territory was being attacked by another Nine Sect was not really possible, which is why the Harpy race was gaining terrain at a rather quick pace.
Situations like this happened all around the continent and sea. However, in the sea, the situation was slightly worse for Yasenia's side. The Ocean Chasm Empire was a true powerhouse of the World, and the Mermaids and other allied aquatic races were not able to properly push back against them.
While the Ocean Swallowing Mermaids were powerful, they were not invincible. Therefore, Yasenia, who knew that the land situation was under control, set her sights on the ocean's problem.
Yasenia muttered. 'We set up the Astral Sky Abyss Sect at first for this exact moment. While their influence is high, and they are causing damage by using their assassin skills, it's not enough. The Ocean Chasm Empire has been dominating the seas for thousands of years, so they have people everywhere. They are basically the lords of the sea.'
The dragoness looked at all the information she had and muttered. "To be fair, taking control of the sea area is much more complicated. From what I heard, the Ocean Chasm Empire has around 60 peak-level seniors in hiding, which is the sum of the other two Empires combined."
Evelyn, who was sitting by her side, asked. "Then, why is the Holy Beast Empire called the strongest power in the World?"
Yasenia laughed. "Because if we ignore the peak levels, which usually never go out, they are indeed the strongest. The reason the Ocean Chasm Empire is such an untouchable powerhouse and has the longest history is that the lifespan of water creatures is usually a bit higher, so they have more peak-level cultivators. Each time the Ocean Chasm Empire has been in danger of being replaced and exterminated, those hidden peak-level Epoch Cores would come out and flatten everything opposing them."
Evelyn commented. "They sound quite nice if they weren't our enemies."
Yasenia didn't deny it. "A strong drive to defend their country. It is indeed admirable. Sadly for them, they need to disappear."
Evelyn asked. "What if they surrender?"
Yasenia shook her head. "Too many connections. Unlike land powers who are very... mixed. Without a single power dominating, underwater powers all have a smaller or larger connection to the Ocean Chasm Empire."
Evelyn hummed. "So, will you go to slaughter them like you did with the Silent Fang Sect?"
Yasenia denied that option. "I can't really do that. As I said, for underwater people, the Ocean Chasm Empire is like their sky. Remember that while they are not good people, they are the main defenders against land powers. Almost 80% of the invasions from land creatures into the sea had been defended by them."
