Chapter 177: Preparation
Since he was ready to make a move, such a behemoth as the Armored Beast Sect quickly took action. The deployment of the master of the pen, the fun and the pavilion www.biquge.info the research of intelligence, the layout of the battle plan, and the preparation of materials...... All kinds of actions are moving quickly and methodically. Although because this matter needs to be kept secret, the Armored Beast Sect did not mobilize the strength of the various affiliated sects under it, but put everything within the sect to solve it, but such a strict posture still scared the large and small sects that vaguely felt that something was wrong.
The Armored Beast Sect's big move triggered a fierce reaction from the surrounding monks, and some of them sent their disciples to the Beast King Peak to find out the news. Of course, as monks, their words could not be as straightforward as the people in the market said, but after the false words in the clouds were removed, what they said was the same meaning: "Boss...... Boss, what are you going to do?"
"It's nothing, we're just going to have a mid-year competition. Isn't this the year of Bingshen...... The 60-year round of the big competition will be lively this year. This is said to be an order from the Supreme Elders in the sect on a whim, and we are also helpless. Although the head of the sect is the head of the house, he also has to give those elders who are cultivating a face. They love to be lively, so the head of the sect will follow them, after all, they are all the elders of the head of the sect!" said the receptionist of the Armored Beast Sect - at the beginning of the entire operation, they had already thought of the inquiries from the outside world and unified the tone of their speech.
"Ah...... That's the case!" Listening to the explanation given by the Armored Beast Sect, although the person who asked understood that there must be other secrets in it, he didn't want to ask too much, so he could only accept the Armored Beast Sect's statement and admit it.
After three busy days, everything needed was finally prepared, and the Flying Bear was ready to set off. At this time, the target fleet had been sailing at sea for four days, and it had already traveled nearly six thousand miles south, and it was almost out of the sphere of influence of the Armored Beast Sect. With such a big gap, it is definitely not possible to chase after it with a sailing ship, and Ziyun Zhenren decided to use the flying boat to pursue the other party as the head of the house.
The flying boat is also a ship, its appearance is no different from the ordinary sea ship, the same upper and lower decks, the same bow and stern, the same rudder, the same sail, but it is the most different from the sea ship in one place, that is, the flying boat is flying in the sky, not in the sea. It is precisely because the flying boat is walking in the sky that its speed is much faster than that of the sea ship - with the Beast King's Peak to the position of the target fleet, the flying boat only needs less than a day's effort, and it is extremely fast.
However, the speed of the flying boat is not something that ordinary people can use. Unlike sea ships, which rely entirely on sails to sail, flying boats rely on the common currency spirit stones in the cultivation worldβa three-inch square high-grade spirit stone, which can only fly for an hour in a medium-sized flying boat with a capacity of 300 people. And a three-inch square high-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for ten thousand three-inch square low-grade spirit stones, and six low-grade spirit stones are the income of a Qi Induction Realm disciple like Li Jingxuan for a month.
After such calculations, the Armored Beast Sect needs nearly sixty high-grade spirit stones for a flying boat to dispatch a flying boat, and this amount is basically a month's income of the Armored Beast Sect.
"Dispatching this flying boat is really burning money!" Watching the combat power of the sect step into the larger flying boat one by one, the flying bear real person couldn't help but sigh: "If we don't succeed this time, then our Armored Beast Sect will lose a lot." β
"It's a big loss? How can it be? It's just a month's income, and with the accumulation of the sect in the past 10,000 years, it shouldn't be nothing. Senior Brother Shen, who was behind the Flying Bear Zhenren, cautiously responded.
This time, the plan was based on his initial suggestion, and the head Ziyun Zhenren saw his cleverness from his demeanor, and intended to cultivate him, so he transferred him to his master, Feixiong Zhenren, to be a little Taoist boy.
Don't think that Dao Tong is just a servant of cheap karma. Serving people? Then you have to see who the people are serving. If it is an ordinary disciple, of course, it makes people feel humiliated, but if it is to serve a master like Xiang Feixiong Zhenren, it is simply a reward. For a junior disciple of the Qi Induction Realm like Senior Brother Shen, the Flying Bear True Person of the Yuan Realm is undoubtedly a figure like an immortal. He only needs to follow Feixiong Zhenren to get a little guidance from him, and his cultivation will be greatly improved.
It is precisely because of such benefits that Senior Brother Shen can be said to be in front of the Flying Bear real person, and he is busy non-stop. His well-behaved and clever skills impressed the real Flying Bear in just a few days. Feixiong Zhenren felt that this kid was also very good, and naturally smiled at him.
"Who said it was a spirit stone! a spirit stone is nothing at all...... What I care about is what comes after the spirit stone: the reputation of the sect, the reverence of the world for us, and so on...... Do you know that there are more powerful sects in this world than us, but when it comes to the reputation among the world, there are already a few more famous than us. It's all based on our few failures. Winning and not defeating is our reputation, and if we fail, this reputation will be ruined. People who originally listened to us thought that we were nothing more than that, and it seemed that they could sway a little bit. This reaction is cascading, and one failure often leads to a complete collapse, so we have to calculate repeatedly every time we attack. "Flying Bear Zhenren took this opportunity to teach Senior Brother Shen Chunchun.
"If you don't move, you will win. Respond to the enemy with the overwhelming momentum of Mount Tai. Is that so?" After carefully pondering the words of some Flying Bear Real People, Senior Brother Shen summed up these two points. With his knowledge, he vaguely felt that this was right, but whether it was so or not had to be commented on by Feixiong Zhenren.
"That's right...... Therefore, there is generally a guideline for the actions of our Armored Beast Sect...... That is to use as much strength as possible to deal with them with a force that is one order stronger than the other party. The Flying Bear nodded approvingly, and smiled and revealed a secret belonging to the top of the Armored Beast Sect: "It's like this battle in front of you." We know that the fleet has the existence of the middle stage of the Yuan Realm, so in order to deal with him, I, an old man in the early stage of the Transformation Spirit, must go out. β
"Ah...... So that's the case!" At this time, Senior Brother Shen suddenly realized: "This is to ensure that we can achieve an absolute victory." β
"Absolute victory? There are no absolutes in victory. After all, there are so many surprises in the world. All we can do is to calculate the heel of victory as much as possible, and grasp him as much as possible. Flying Bear Zhenren sighed and said, "Do your best, obey the destiny of heaven." There is no way to grasp the destiny of heaven, only personnel can be determined...... Alas, this world is so cruel again, the law of the jungle. If you don't want to be the bait in someone else's mouth, make yourself strong as soon as possible. The life of a monk is to fight for the word, to fight with the heavens, and to fight with people...... That's why there are so many battles. β
"What Uncle Tai said is the truth, and the disciples and grandsons have been taught. Listening to the sigh of the flying bear real person, although Senior Brother Shen felt that this Uncle Tai seemed to be a little too sad, but on his face, he still nodded desperately and said yes, and he should be in line with everything the old man said.
Regarding Senior Brother Shen's obedience, Feixiong Zhenren nodded with satisfaction.
At this time, the combat elite sent by the sect was almost up, and the Flying Bear Zhenren immediately led Senior Brother Shen and a few other elders of the Yuan Realm to step onto the flying boat. In this battle, the Armored Beast Sect took out half of the high-end combat power in the sect: the leader of the team was the previous head of the sect, Feixiong Zhenren, who was the strength of the early stage of the spirit transformation; followed by the elders of the Baoyuan Realm, the steward of the Dharma Pavilion Linghe Zhenren, the medicine garden steward Ling Centipede Zhenren, and the armor building steward Lingying Zhenren, they were all the strength of the late Baoyuan period; and then there were twenty elite stewards in the late stage of the God Refining Realm and the middle stage of the God Refining Realm, each of them led about ten disciples of the late stage of Qi Induction, as the main force of the battle boarding.
Although it was the masters represented by the Flying Bear True Man who decided the final outcome of the battle, the disciples of the Refining God and Qi Induction Realm were not completely useless, at least they still needed their strength in the outpost battle before the masters appeared and after the entire battle situation was determined. Yes, the real Flying Bear brought them.
When everyone boarded the ship, the ship was flying. The huge figure of thirty zhang long and six zhang wide rose from the square in front of the Overlord Hall of the Beast King Peak, flew to the southwest sky, and soon turned into a small dot in the sky.
At this moment, the Armored Beast Sect had already unsheathed its sword.
And at this moment, the people on the fleet did not know anything about it.
After a small but fierce "conflict" a few days ago, everyone in the fleet could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. As He Yan retreated, most of them thought that this matter was over, and the Armored Beast Sect should not continue to entangle. After all, the Armored Beast Sect can be regarded as a famous and decent family, how can a famous and decent family be pressed step by step, and they will not give up until they achieve their goal.
So, they all woke up in peace, eating what they should eat, drinking what they should drink, cultivating what they should cultivate, and retreating when they should retreat. Even such a super master as Mingxuan Zhenren thought that the matter was over.
However, this comfort only existed for four days before it ended. When the flying boat of the Armored Beast Sect took off into the air, Ming Xuan Zhenren, who was meditating quietly, felt a trace of horror on a whim. He felt that something bad had happened, although he thought about it and didn't find anything wrong, but the throbbing in his heart made him unable to calm down again.
"What the hell is going on?" Mingxuan Zhenren, who was staying in the cabin, felt more and more irritable, and he walked around thinking, but he was still unable to determine where his inexplicable feeling came from.
"A catastrophe is coming...... This feels like this, yes, but where does this 'difficulty' come from?" Mingxuan Zhenren couldn't think of it, so he could only come out of the cabin and walk to Xia Di's side and knock on his door. At this moment, he urgently needed someone to talk to him.
At this time, there was no one in Xia Di's house. After Ming Xuan Zhenren was welcomed into the room by Xia Di, he didn't even have time to say hello before he frowned tightly, and said his feeling: "The catastrophe is coming, the danger is hanging in the air - this kind of bad feeling, I have never been so clear, it feels as if I am going to die in the next moment." Although, for no reason, I can't show evidence if you ask me to come up with evidence, but this feeling is so strong and real, I can't sit still anymore. I would like to ask you to help me analyze what kind of danger I or we might encounter. β
"Well...... Xia Di pondered slightly: "This matter is so unexpected." You make me think, I can't think of anything for a while. I think it would be better to leave this kind of imaginary thing to young people. They are young, with lively brains, rich in ideas, and may be able to see things that we can't see. β
"That's fine, anyway...... Hurry up. The feeling of panic was already very uncomfortable for me. "Ming Xuan Zhenren has no objection to Xia Di's idea, but just hopes that this matter can be carried out as soon as possible.
"No problem, I'll get them over as soon as possible now. Xia Di said calmly, and then found someone to order. The messenger left, and he invited Mingxuan Zhenren to sit down on the chair at the other end of the cabin, and poured him a pot of tea: "Calm down, you look so flustered, it seems that those people have lost their mastery demeanor in their eyes." Perhaps, they never thought that Mingxuan Zhenren, who was regarded as a 'fairy god', would be so anxious. β
"Does 'Immortal' mean that?" Mingxuan Zhenren smiled bitterly. What kind of immortal god am I now!" Ming Xuan Zhenren said and shook his head gently. While denying it, he took the tea from Xia Di's hand and drank it...... One cup is not enough, two cups! Two cups are not enough, three cups! In short, after a few cups of tea, his originally impatient mind finally settled down. Although the anxiety in his heart is still there, at least in terms of face, he has been able to settle down a little.
After that, He Chaozhi came in.
After that, Li Jingxuan also came.
Xia Di invited the two juniors to sit down, and did not say too much to them, so he directly let Mingxuan Zhenren express his anxiety and doubts: "...... I always felt like we were going to be in big trouble. I just can't figure out where the trouble is...... Xia Di said that your heads are more flexible, so I want to ask you to help me think about it, what is the root cause of this inexplicable throbbing in my heart? If there is a disaster that will befall you, then where will this disaster come from?"
"Disaster?" Suddenly asked about such a proposition, Li Jingxuan and He Chaozhidu were slightly stunned. To be honest, this proposition seemed a bit too abrupt for them, and they were really not prepared for it. It's just that Ming Xuan is the strongest master in the fleet, and they don't dare to slack off on such a big master's inquiry.
Although they don't have a clue about it, they can only rely on the slightest clue to think about it, but the continuous hard thinking still allows them to grasp some of it.
"Could it be that possibility?" Coincidentally, Li Jingxuan and He Chaozhi thought of it a little, and their eyes lit up suddenly. (To be continued.) )
