Fortunately, before this, the coalition army had also done the corresponding training against the Soul Devouring Array - now in the entire Ascension Realm, everyone knew the horror of the Soul Devouring Array, and before that, there were also many sects that collected the Soul Devouring Array and used it as a special weapon of the sect.

The benefits of the Soul Devouring Array can be seen by individuals, and in view of the characteristics of this magic weapon, many sects have proposed many effective applications and methods.

At the end of the day, there's only one way to do this, keep the speed, and keep the speed anytime, anywhere.

Although the flying people are not yet clear about the principle of this Soul Eater Array, based on some basic experiments, they can easily come to the sensory conclusion that once they fall into the range of action of the Soul Eater Array, all the power in the conventional sense is lost, and the most reliable power at this time is only the limbs on the body.

If you start swimming as soon as possible, and if the Soul Eater Circle itself remains stationary, it will only take about three minutes to leave the center of effect of the Soul Eater Circle.

Of course, in battle, there is often no three-minute time. 180 per second, enough for the enemy to rush in and kill a person dozens of times.

The best way, of course, is when being affected by the Soul Devouring Array, the body itself has a certain speed.

But the habit of maintaining speed is not easy to develop, and it is like making a person who is accustomed to driving an automatic transmission be ready to switch gears all the time while driving - this often means a decrease in flight efficiency and, most importantly, in battle, the deformation of combat maneuvers.

In battle, generally speaking, the most efficient sequence of tactical moves from offensive to defensive is to first accelerate directly, approach the enemy, and stop and slow down to 0 when you reach the optimal distance to control the flying sword, or stay relatively still with the enemy - and then calm down to control the flying sword. Wait for the enemy to chase after you, and then start to accelerate your retreat.

This tactic is nothing fancy, it is to rely on the advantage of cultivation to crush.

Higher Stats means that Coalition combatants have longer flying sword control distances, higher attack speeds, and faster acceleration.

In a normal battle, when faced with such an opponent, the rebels will soon fall into a situation where they cannot catch up, cannot fight, and blindly lags behind and is beaten.

In the previous battles between sects, strong sects often relied on only a dozen people to form a firepower network composed of flying swords in a designated area, and after the enemy entered this area, a dozen flying swords would spin up like the blades of a meat grinder, wringing any enemy who dared to enter into pieces.

But because of these suicide attackers, and the appearance of the Soul Eater Array, this normal rhythm of combat began to complicate it.

Now, due to the existence of the Soul Eater Circle, there are some soulless areas at the front of the rebel position, and once the controlled flying sword enters these areas, it will temporarily lose contact - maybe a few seconds, or ten seconds later, it will be able to make contact again, or it may be captured by the enemy. During this time, the enemy continued to move at a relatively slow pace in the direction of the coalition positions. The originally uniform rhythm of attack and retreat, because of the different distribution of the no-spirit area, the corresponding combat personnel naturally appeared, which made the front and back of the battle line appear to be in and out.

The existence of the Soul Eater Circle is like putting a few stones in a meat grinder - making the otherwise unbridled blades start to need to dodge.

When the battle line is messy and distorted, the rebels will concentrate their forces on a weak point in the front, usually an area where a few people with the lowest cultivation are responsible, and in an instant, 300, 500, or even 1,000 people will suddenly rush towards the area.

Due to the limited number of spirit stones, the Resistance's "charge" speed is actually much slower than the overall movement speed of the Coalition - in this more naval battle-like combat mode, the Resistance's men are like rowing a sampan to get close to a normal fleet.

Such a charge would soon be met with a concentrated attack of opposing fire, and a dozen or so flying swords would almost immediately come towards the area - but they would have to leave again very quickly, as these rebel assault teams often carried large numbers of Soul Eaters.

The Resistance clearly knew the most important thing about this kind of battle - their only hope of victory was Soul Eater.

For the Resistance, the Soul Eater is not only a shield to defend them from damage when they charge into battle, but also a handcuff to disarm and surrender when approaching the enemy.

Apart from the shields and handcuffs, the rebels had little combat power to match.

The state of the war began to become rhythmic, and the coalition retreated to a certain distance before stabilizing and then outflanking the two flanks—no, it should be said that the upper and lower left and right flanks, while the rebels were forced to shrink in all directions except for advancing on the front, hiding everyone behind the Soul Eater. The form of the war changed from naval warfare to land warfare in the traditional sense, with the role of the rebels changing to infantry shield towns and the coalition forces becoming cavalry.

The war gradually entered the white heat, and the coalition forces soon completed the encirclement of the rebels, and the rebel formations were also in a state of encirclement, unswervingly advancing towards the target island. The dark clouds that covered the sky and the sun were now condensed into an island of people wrapped in the Soul Eater Array.

At this point in the war, the two sides suddenly understood their own advantages and disadvantages under this new war system.

But it was too late.

The coalition forces have the obvious strategic initiative, and if they go up and entangle the other side when the rebel army sets out, they may not be able to reach the island at all. Because the rebels can't always travel that long distance in the Eater of Souls—just as the infantry can't always carry a shield and march long distances under the watchful eye of the cavalry. But now that this is understood, it is too late, the enemy has approached the island of a sect - and they have not prepared in advance to evacuate the supplies in the sect.

For a long time, the form of war in the Ascension Realm has always been a naval warfare-style idea - everyone believes that investing all resources in one point and winning a decisive battle is the only and most effective way to fight a sect war.

Therefore, the area chosen for this coalition resistance battle is on an island with abundant material reserves. In order to support the war at any time, a large number of spirit stones are stored on the island - but now, these spirit stones have not been used for a while, and they are about to fall into the control of the opponent.

At the moment when the first group of rebels landed on the island, the coalition forces, which had completed the encirclement, were finally forced to attack.

The outcome was doomed, the cavalry was forced to fight a decisive battle by the infantry with a tight formation and absolute superiority in numbers, and the speed advantage of the cavalry could not be brought into play at all, and the rest of the battle was an enlarged version of the absurd game that Bai Feng had seen in the soul test competition - no flying swords, no magic weapons, no aura, and the two sides held weapons on the island to the death.

In this war, there is a high level of cultivation and a huge reserve of spirit stones...... It's a joke, and many of the rebels don't even have proper melee weapons, and many of them just have wooden clubs in their hands, or even go into battle with their bare hands - but in a gravity-free environment, there is no big difference between the combat effectiveness of having weapons and bare hands.

……

After returning from the front line, Bai Feng clearly realized that the trend of the rebels' continuous offensive towards the core area was difficult to truly contain.

This kind of attack with the Soul Eater Array as the main combat method, the ordinary, small island as the core sect has almost no ability to resist, tens of thousands of people rush up, no matter how many masters you have, as long as you can't leave the island, you will inevitably be swallowed by the Soul Eater Array and become a waste.

The only feasible way to defend against such an offensive pattern is to form a large-scale coalition and take the initiative to attack - to entangle the enemy when he leaves his home and force the opponent to fight attrition.

There are too many people in the rebel army, and if they are forced to constantly use the Soul Eater Array to protect themselves, after the spirit stones they have stolen are consumed, they will completely become fish and turtles and be slaughtered by others.

Just like the pattern they had used to besiege the Spirit Island.

Obviously, it's not just Bai Feng who is aware of the seriousness of this problem.

The other sects of the Nine Great Sects had sent people to understand the situation, and after coming back, the Daoist took the initiative to talk to Bai Feng once—he thought more deeply than Bai Feng.

The Daoist first affirmed Bai Feng's tactical ideas, but then he put forward the biggest difficulty of this tactic - how to divide the troops.

The nine major factions now have a total of 8 islands to defend, and theoretically have more than 20,000 or 30,000 troops, and there are 3,000 or 4,000 people on each island. These three or four thousand people are a formidable force in both quality and quantity, and judging from this number alone, there is little to worry about. Because so far, the size of the rebel army is only tens of thousands of people - a team of thousands of masters to face a garbage team of tens of thousands of people, as long as the strategy of Bai Feng is adopted, just like their previous attack on the Spirit Island, it is almost a one-sided war, without suspense.

However, the next commander of the alliance of the nine major factions is not responsible for winning a certain battle, but to win the entire war.

If the division of troops is based on the pattern of spreading the pie, it seems to be okay on the surface, and each sect can individually guard a rebel army and annihilate it.

If that's the case, then there is no need for the coalition army to be formed, as long as the entire tactics are explained and the individual factions are allowed to carry them out.

Now, the big problem is that the number of rebels is too many, too disgusting.

Moreover, not to mention the most disgusting thing that the enemy will never really die, it is within 500 miles of the Nine Great Factions - this is already a fairly core area of the Ascension Realm, and there are already three resistance armies.
