Speaking of this, Ding Youke paused, his deep gaze scanning everyone present.

He saw worry, uneasiness, and apprehension in the changes in the expressions of these people, which were all normal expressions, after all, this attack by the Snake Fighting Clan was not trivial.

According to the information obtained from the previous confrontation between the two sides, it can be known that in the opposing camp, there is a monk in the foundation building period, who is very strong, and Ding Youke does not dare not take it seriously.

He was also a foundation monk, and he didn't have absolute confidence that he could defeat a snake fighter.

And their main task is to protect the skullstone veins, and they can't act as unscrupulously as the snake clan, once all the mines are destroyed, it means that the mission fails, and he can't afford this loss.

Therefore, defense is the best way to deal with it, as long as you rely on the formation enchantment to block the attack of the Snake Fighting Clan, so that they can retreat in the face of difficulties, then you can achieve the goal of surrendering without a fight.

In the past few attacks of the Snake Fighting Clan, he took the initiative to retreat under this strategy.

You must know that although the Divine Tree Forest is the territory of the Snake Fighting Clan, the Great Wilderness City is under the control of the Heavenly Taiyi, and there are many Terran monks there.

Even if it was a snake fighting clan, they didn't dare to easily approach the area near the Great Wilderness City.

Therefore, when the Yunying Mountain Stone Vein is attacked, the Great Wilderness City will give reinforcements as long as it receives the news, and the Snake Fighting Clan does not dare to drag it out here for too long, otherwise it will be attacked from both sides, and it is likely that there will be no return.

It is precisely because of this possibility that the Snake Fighting Clan has no good way to deal with the Hun Tian Tai and the others who are entrenched in Cloud Shadow Mountain.

But the current situation makes Ding Youke a little uncertain.

Under normal circumstances, he should continue to defend the mines and camps, and then send out a call for help, waiting for reinforcements from the Great Wilderness City to arrive.

But they had sent a few people to deliver the letter before, but they were all unsuccessful, and they were all stopped by the foundation building period monk of the snake fighting clan, and even the transmission notes could not escape the clutches of the other party.

The news of the attack by the Snake Fighting Clan here can't be spread, and the Great Wilderness City doesn't know what the situation is, so naturally it won't rush to send reinforcements.

They have actually been isolated.

In addition, the Snake Fighting Clan did not choose to attack, but confronted them and consumed them, which put them in a disadvantageous situation.

Compared to the Fighting Snake Clan, they can't afford it, because maintaining the operation of the formation enchantment requires a huge amount of spiritual power, and it needs to consume a lot of spirit stones.

If the Fighting Snake Clan attacks strongly, then they can rely on the formation enchantment to counterattack, which can weaken the opponent's living force to a certain extent.

Once the Snake Fighting Clan loses too much, they will not dare to continue attacking, and when the time comes, the monks of Hun Tian Taiyi will counterattack, and they will definitely be defeated, which is a price they cannot afford.

However, the Snake Fighting Clan besieged but did not attack, and they also had to ensure the full operation of the formation enchantment, because you don't know if the Snake Fighting Clan would suddenly launch a strong attack, and once they relaxed, Cloud Shadow Mountain would most likely be lost.

This leads to the fact that they have to consume spiritual power to maintain the operation of the formation enchantment, and the snake fighting clan does not consume anything, and under the advantages of one or the other, the advantage will be tilted in favor of the other party.

At that time, when the formation enchantment on their side can't be maintained, and the snake fighting clan will attack with all their might, then they can only rely on their own strength to fight hard with the other party.

Ding Youke knew this very well, and everyone present could see that the Fighting Snake Clan was prepared, the current situation was different from before, and they had to make corresponding adjustments.

Judging from the remaining situation of the spirit stones at present, they can still support it for another ten days or so.

As long as they can pass on the news from this side during this period, then they can hold on and wait for the reinforcements from the Great Wilderness City to arrive.

This is an urgent task, but it is difficult to accomplish.

Because the person who goes out to deliver the news must ensure that he is not caught by the foundation building period monks of the snake fighting clan, otherwise there is only one way to die.

The only one on their side who can deal with the monks of the foundation building period is Ding Youke, but he obviously can't deliver the letter, otherwise there will be no one to guard here, and the result is still that he can't hold Yunying Mountain.

Therefore, he needs to select a few warriors from the people present to try to break through the encirclement of the snake fighting clan to complete this task.

Ding Youke knew that this required a lot of risk, and failure would be death, so he didn't say it directly, but continued to explain the current situation: "The current situation is very unfavorable to us, the remaining spiritual power reserves of the formation can last for ten days at most, and after ten days, we can only fight to the death with the Snake Fighting Clan." ”

Seeing that everyone's expressions were even more gloomy, Ding Youke didn't feel that it was a blow to morale at all, but thought that the situation was developing in a good direction.

At this time, his voice changed, his voice became much more indifferent, and he continued: "The order I received is that no matter what, you must defend Cloud Shadow Mountain and ensure the stability of all the mines. ”

After finishing speaking, Dan saw Ding Youke's big sleeves wave, his eyes swept and exuded a powerful coercion of the foundation building period, and the cold breath rolled in like a tide, and all the monks present were pale, and their hearts were like holding a mountain of ten thousand catties, and they couldn't raise their heads with difficulty.

This is the strength of the foundation building period, just a glance makes them unable to move.

After Ding Youke retracted his breath, he said unhurriedly: "I need three people to go to the Great Wilderness City to deliver the news, and I must let Elder Xie Xuan lead the team to come for reinforcements." ”

As soon as these words came out, the tension in the room reached its peak, and everyone held their breath, for fear of making any noise to attract Ding Youke's attention.

However, compared to the avoidance of most people, some people still recommended themselves to stand up: "Elder, I am willing to take on this task." ”

The person who spoke was Cheng Song, as the first person to take the initiative to stand up, he naturally became the focus of everyone, and many people were muttering in private, saying that he was sick in the brain and went to die.

Cheng Song knew what those people were thinking, and he didn't explain, but Ding Youke nodded appreciatively, there are monks who are not afraid of death these days, which is really commendable.

Soon, Ding Youke selected the other two lucky people from the remaining crowd to form a three-person messenger team, and they needed to pass through the layers of the snake fighting clan to deliver the news to the Great Wilderness City.

In order to ensure the smooth implementation of the messenger plan, Ding Youke also formulated a relevant cooperation plan, the purpose of course was to distract the monk of the foundation building period and most of the snake fighting people and create opportunities for them.

The time for the implementation of the plan was set after a stick of incense, and all the actions were secretly and intensively prepared.

……

At this moment, Yu Xiao was hiding in a tree, and with the help of the dense foliage, he cautiously looked at the camp of the Snake Fighting Clan in front of him.

He had observed the surroundings before, and the entire Cloud Shadow Mountain had been surrounded by the Snake Fighting Clan, and there was not even the slightest gap, he couldn't get close at all, and he didn't know what was going on over there.

However, one thing is certain, the Snake Fighting Clan has not yet captured Cloud Shadow Mountain, and it seems that they have not launched an attack depending on the situation.

This made Yu Xiao feel very surprised, because this was completely inconsistent with the Snake Fighting Clan's expectations.

Since it is surrounded, why not storm it? If time is wasted here, they are not afraid of reinforcements from the Huntian Taiyi Monk of the Great Wilderness City?

The more he thought about it, the more wrong Yu Xiao became, and he wanted to rush in to see what the situation was.

But he just thought about it, and didn't dare to do it, after all, he didn't know if there was a strong person in the foundation building period on the side of the snake fighting clan.

Even if there is no strong man in the foundation building period, just so many snake fighting people come around, it is difficult for him to deal with it, and rushing in is an act of sending him to death.

Anyway, now that the Snake Fighting Clan is not attacking, he is not in a hurry, and plans to continue to wait and see for a while.

However, at this moment, there was a commotion in the Snake Fighting Clan camp in front, and the shouts shook the sky, and the air was suddenly filled with the smell of slaughter.

Yu Xiao was shocked in his heart, is the snake fighting clan going to attack? Hurriedly stood up and looked into the distance.

I saw that the dark blue formation enchantment under the Cloud Shadow Mountain suddenly opened a gap of dozens of zhang, and then one after another figures leaped out of it and exchanged hands with the people of the snake fighting clan at the front.

Since he was far away, he could only roughly see that the battlefield was very chaotic, and the roar of magic weapons colliding echoed in the sky.

I don't know if there is a partial collapse in the encirclement of the Snake Fighting Clan, and the Snake Fighting Clan people in the rest of the directions are converging here, and it seems that Hun Tian Taiyi has the upper hand in the situation.

"Could it be that Elder Ding is planning to defeat the Snake Fighting Clan from the front?" Yu Xiao was pondering whether there was such a possibility, and the mutation would be reborn.

But seeing that there was a person standing in the air on this side of the encirclement of the Fighting Snake Clan, the spiritual power around him was agitated, and in an instant, the sky was tumbling, and the spiritual energy of heaven and earth gathered like a long whale absorbing water.

The man cast spells one after another, and the terrifying purple energy of the Dao Dao merged into the surrounding space, and a giant snake phantom more than ten zhang long fell from the sky and pressed towards the earth below.

At the same time, on the side of Hun Tian Taiyi, a dry figure rushed out, and that person was Ding Youke.

Facing the phantom of the giant snake, Ding Youke was calm and abnormal, and he couldn't help but put his palms together, and a yellow paper talisman appeared in his palm, and after the mana was poured into it, the paper talisman turned into a black mist, and then a black coffin more than two people high condensed out.

With a low bang, the lid of the coffin suddenly opened, and a dark and shiny corpse puppet flew out of it, its eyes shooting lightning bolts, heading straight for the phantom of the giant snake above.

The two were entangled, and the terrifying spiritual power collided and erupted into a piercing roar, and the giant serpent phantom was like an ancient beast, its thick body seemed to be able to crush all obstacles, knocking the dark corpse puppet backwards again and again.

Looking at the black corpse puppet again, it seemed to be inferior to the giant snake phantom in terms of strength, but its body was extremely hard, and no matter what kind of attack it received, it never left any traces, and it simply dragged the opponent's attack.

Seeing this, Yu Xiao's face changed greatly, there was indeed a foundation building period monk in the snake fighting clan, and now he had a hand with Elder Ding, it seemed that the two sides were going to be superior.

In a battle of this level, he will definitely not be able to intervene.

"Catch him, don't let that Terran monk escape!"

Suddenly, an angry roar came into his ears, Yu Xiao came back to his senses, and hurriedly looked for the sound, but saw that the human monk was fighting fiercely with a group of snake fighting people, and he was coming to this side while fighting, it seemed that he was trying to break through the encirclement of the snake fighting clan.

"Cheng Song? How did he get here, and what's going on? ”

Yu Xiao was puzzled for a while, but he didn't think much about it, since he was a monk in the same camp, how could he not save him when he saw death, so he immediately jumped off the big tree where he was hiding and quietly touched in the direction of Cheng Song.
