Chapter 978: Resignation
Outside Yuqingzong, the light film barrier formed by the large array is like a lake surface in a rainstorm, and the falling raindrops are constantly arousing ripples of water. However, no matter how dense the raindrops fall, no matter how big the raindrops are, they can't really break the surface of the lake.
On Ao Yu's side, seeing that the second batch of Sea Clan had been in the formation for so long, they still failed to make any changes in the formation. Hearing Ye Zan's aggressive words, he was immediately in a dilemma. He didn't know if he should continue to send the Sea Clan into the battle, or...
In Ao Yu's heart at this moment, he felt a little bit of regret for Liwei's plan this time. Or to be more precise, what he really regrets is that he chose Liwei's object as Yuqingzong, so that he is now in a dilemma.
"Hateful, what is this Yu Qingzong, is there really some hidden means!"
The expression on Ao Yu's face was constantly changing, sometimes angry, sometimes annoyed, and sometimes showing a bit of sternness. He no longer believes that what he has learned from the Internet is really all the strength of Yu Qingzong.
In Ao Yu's eyes, Yu Qingzong's strength has changed from a small pool of water to a sea of unknown boundaries. Maybe, three to five miles out of sight is the coast, but it is also possible that there is still a vast ocean thousands of miles out of sight.
So what's next?
Continue to send the Sea Clan into the battle?
Although, for the Dragon Clan, those Sea Clans without true dragon blood are just cannon fodder that can be consumed at will. However, the cannon fodder must be consumed to be valuable, otherwise there will be a time when it will be consumed. The Yunhai Territory is very large, and there are many big sea monsters, but no matter how large the number is, it cannot be consumed like this.
Moreover, when the day comes, when the dragons in the Yunhai domain really want to return to the water veins everywhere and rebuild their respective dragon palaces, they still need some sea people to drive them.
When the dragon clans of various water veins moved to the cloud sea domain, they didn't bring the water clans under their respective hands.
Although, even after such a long time, among the many water veins in various domains, there will still be big monsters of the aquatic clan. However, after the return of the dragon clan, even if they have the ability to directly subdue those aquatic clans, they still need to bring some subordinates.
This is not only related to the face of the Dragon Clan, do you think the big monsters of the Aquarium Clan in all domains eat dry food?
Those Sea Clan, or Shui Clan, or Monster Clan, who would be willing to be ridden on the head by the Dragon Clan again? This time the Dragon Clan took the Yuqingzong to establish their prestige, it can be said that they used the power of the "one domain" to confront the "one sect", but they have not yet won the Yuqingzong. If you really spread the power of the Dragon Clan,
It is really not necessarily who is strong and who is weak when it is sprinkled to various water veins in all realms of the heavens.
So, if the Sea Clan is no longer sent into the battle, is it really necessary to let the Dragon Clan masters enter the battle in person?
This thought flashed across Ao Yu's mind, but he immediately killed it directly in his mind.
Regardless of what cards Yu Qingzong has, at least he can take out three Faxiang Taoist monarchs, which can be confirmed. In other words, if the Dragon Clan sends fewer powerful people, it may be no different from the fate of the Sea Clan.
Don't forget, the inside and outside of the formation are not the same. With the advantage of that large formation, even if the opponent only has three Faxiang Daojuns, the Dragon Clan will have to dispatch at least several times their strength to guarantee a certain advantage.
This is like a siege battle in a secular war. As the siege party, the Dragon Clan must have several times the strength of the defenders to take down the city.
But the problem is, if there are more dragon clan powers entering the battle, there will naturally be fewer dragon clan powers outside. And the dragon clan outside has less power, so naturally there is no way to maintain the suppression of the big formation, which is tantamount to transferring the hope of breaking the formation to the inside of the formation. However, if you want to break through the formation from within, the difficulty of breaking through the formation with brute force from outside the formation may be tens or hundreds of times higher.
After all, there are no real formation masters on the side of the Dragon Clan, not to mention the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands Great Formation of Yu Qingzong is not an ordinary formation.
"retreat!"
Ao Yu thought about the countermeasure for a long time, but no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't think of a way to solve it. In the end, he only shouted this word from his mouth.
In fact, there is a saying that is good, it is called "take a step back and open up the sea and the sky".
Some things seem to be in a dilemma, and it seems that there is no way to solve them at all, but often taking a step back can get more room for movement. Although Ao Yu didn't see the strength of Yu Qingzong clearly, so that all the decisions he made from the beginning to the present have deviated. But he is also the prince of the majestic Yunhai Dragon Palace, so he is not so stupid as to go all the way to the dark.
Judging from the current situation, it seems that no matter how the Dragon Clan chooses, there is no way to use this large formation of Yu Qingzong. But why do you have to break the formation? Could it be that if we don't kill Tongtian Peak and cut off the Yuqing Sect's lineage, the Dragon Clan really can't stand up to this prestige?
Don't forget, no matter how powerful Yu Qingzong's formation is, it is only used to defend the mountain gate dojo. Although, the floating turret added to the formation is equivalent to adding a limited offensive to the defense of the formation. However, there are limits to such an offensive. In fact, it is just a defensive under the skin of "offensive".
To put it bluntly, as long as the Dragon Clan retreated far enough away from the threat of the cannon light from the floating turret, Yu Qingzong's offensive would be meaningless.
"retreat?"
Of course, among the other great powers of the Dragon Clan, there were also those who couldn't see the situation clearly, and they were very surprised after hearing Ao Yu's words. From their point of view, no matter what happened to their side, they were still beating Yu Qingzong to the point that Yu Qingzong was unable to fight back, so how could they suddenly retreat!
"The opponent's big formation is difficult to break through for a while, we should think about it in the long run!"
Ao Yu simply explained to the powerful members of the same clan, and without waiting for other people to react, he had already started to retreat away from Yu Qingzong with the powerful people around him.
Seeing that Ao Yu has already retreated, the other powerful dragon clans, even if they still don't understand it in their hearts, they can't insist on staying here. After all, with the example of Suijiang Dragon King and his party, everyone knows that Yu Qingzong is not completely powerless to fight back. If anyone retreats too slowly, it is really possible to be trapped here and be captured by Yu Qingzong.
On Yu Qingzong's side, seeing the great powers of the dragon clan retreat one after another, they were already out of the range of the floating turret in a blink of an eye, so Ye Zan naturally stopped the floating turret as well.
In a blink of an eye, the sky, which was full of light beams and fireworks, suddenly returned to a clear sky.
"The opponent retreated, it seems that the four dragon balls will come in handy."
Ye Zan's projection was no longer distorted, looking at the direction in which the Dragon Clan retreated, he said with no trace of worry on his face.
You know, with the power displayed by the Dragon Clan, it is still very difficult to conquer Tongtian Peak, but it is a breeze to besiege Yu Qingzong. After all, the existence of the floating turret only expands the area under siege, and cannot really achieve the role of turning defense into offense.
Therefore, as long as the Dragon Clan is willing, they can completely blockade Yu Qingzong outside the range of the floating turret. With the powerful strength of the Dragon Clan, preventing a fly from flying out is not just an exaggerated joke.
However, Ye Zan had already considered this situation.
The four dragon balls were prepared for this situation.
On the side of the Dragon Clan, whether they attacked Yu Qingzong or blocked and besieged Yu Qingzong, what was the fundamental purpose?
Don't you just want to stand up!
To put it bluntly, this is a real face issue.
The so-called prestige is actually to increase face, and the Dragon Clan wants to increase face for themselves by "belittling" Yu Qingzong. However, on Yu Qingzong's side, he held the dragon balls of four dragon captives in his hand, and they were directly used in the big formation. How could the face of the dragon clan increase?
The problem of face must be resolved through matters involving face.
If, the Dragon Clan and Yu Qingzong are really life-and-death enemies. Then, no matter how much Yu Qingzong loses the face of the Dragon Clan, it is impossible to have much influence on the Dragon Clan. After all, I just want you to die, even if I lose face, even if I have to be ridiculed by the world, as long as I can kill you in the end, everything is worth it.
However, between the Dragon Clan and Yu Qingzong, there is no life-and-death enemy, it's just that each of them wants to raise their prestige and save face.
For the sake of this face, can the Dragon Clan bear it and sit and watch the four Dragon Clan prisoners in the hands of Yu Qingzong be killed? Those are the four great experts of the Dragon Clan. Although their strength is relatively weaker, their value on the side of the Dragon Clan is not comparable to those of the Sea Clan's cannon fodder.
In order to establish their prestige, the dragon clan can abandon those sea clan cannon fodder, but it is impossible to abandon their own clan. Otherwise, even if the Dragon Clan and Yu Qingzong were to compete in the end, and the Dragon Clan paid such a high price, this "prestige" could not be regarded as standing up.
What's so great about you, to deal with a Yu Qingzong with the power of one domain, and also fold in four powerful figures at the level of Fa Xiang, this embarrassment will be thrown to grandma's house, okay? Even now, your strength is still tyrannical, we small sects have to bow our heads, but if we are given a chance in the future, we will definitely bite off a piece of meat from you.
God is inoffensible because no one can kill God.
But once people know that gods can also be killed, then gods will lose the majesty of gods.
Of course the Dragon Clan is not a god, but that's the truth.
If the Dragon Clan wants to stand up, they want to show their own strength and make other people feel desperate in the face of such strength. However, the four dragon captives who fell into Yu Qingzong's hands became an obvious flaw in the dragon's prestige. People will know that dragons are strong, but not too strong, and we still have a chance to kill them.
That's right, not all sects can have the means and strength of Yu Qingzong. However, after seeing hope, the various sects have the motivation to join forces, and the combined strength of those sects may not be comparable to that of the Yuqing Sect.
All in all, don't underestimate the four dragon captives. The significance of holding them in your hands is actually far more than their own value.
At this time, many great powers on the side of the Dragon Clan have all left the range of Yu Qingzong's floating turret, and gathered together from a distance to look in the direction of Tongtian Peak.
"Prince, why did you suddenly retreat?"
He was still a little puzzled by the power of the dragon clan, but now that there was no longer the threat of those beams, he asked Ao Yu quickly.
Ao Yu withdrew his gaze from a distance, turned his head to look at the surrounding great powers of the same race, but saw that each of them was more or less injured. Seeing this situation, he couldn't help but feel another sinking in his heart, and he also felt a little more elusive about the hope of reaching Tongtian Peak.
"Two batches of Sea Clan entered the battle. Although the strength of the second batch is slightly weaker, it is not something that any sect can compete with. However, a long time has passed since the second batch of Sea Clan entered the battle. There is still no slight fluctuation in the big formation. Do you know what this means?"
Ao Yu frowned tightly, turned his gaze away from all the great experts around him, and once again cast his gaze in the direction of Tongtian Peak of Yuqingzong. At their distance, looking at Tongtian Peak from a distance, they could only see a faint black shadow reaching the sky. What big array, what floating turret, including Ye Zan's projection, even with the eyesight of their dragon clan, they can't see it at all at this time.
However, Ao Yu faintly felt, or could imagine, that the human race was probably looking at him, and was laughing incomparably proudly.
Indeed, it is something to be proud of to be able to block such an offensive of the Dragon Clan, so that the Dragon Clan had to retreat here to discuss countermeasures.
"Prince, since those Sea Clans are unreliable, why don't we go in and find out?"
That dragon clan's great expert made this suggestion again, obviously he looked down on Yu Qingzong's grand formation from the bottom of his heart. In their eyes, those Sea Clan cannon fodder are just cannon fodder, and the strongest ones are nothing but big demon kings. They didn't think that if they entered the battle themselves, they would have the same fate as those sea people.
"Don't forget, as far as I know, Yu Qingzong can still come up with three Daoist Faxiang. With those three Daoist Faxiang and the help of that big formation, even if we come up with several Doubling the strength, I am afraid it will be difficult to break through the opponent's formation."
Although Ao Yu was very annoyed in his heart, he still acted calmly, and he didn't really lose everything in a fit of anger. Moreover, for them, Liwei is only a secondary goal after coming out of the Yunhai Territory, and the main goal is the outer world. Those Sea Clan cannon fodder will be gone if they are gone, but they, the powerful ones who can go to the outer world, cannot have any mistakes.
"But, is it possible that we have to give up at this point!"
Some dragon clan masters were puzzled and didn't understand what Ao Yu wanted to do. He must have a clear account of whether he was fighting or retiring.
"Remember, when we were in the East China Sea, do you think of some plans at the beginning? We only want to stand in the realm of Shenhua, and we don't have a sworn hatred with Yu Qingzong. Since it is difficult for us to break through the other side's mountain gate for a while , then let him not get out of the mountain gate for half a step, so as to force the other party to bow his head."
Although Ao Yu knows that this approach will greatly reduce the "prestige" of standing up, but it is still a way to achieve the goal after all.
