Chapter 1457 Preparing for the General Offensive
In the next few months, the entire Qingyun Tianyu turned into a pot of porridge!
First, the background and origins of the Demon Soul Dao were fully exposed, and then the Tianyu Sect Alliance launched a demon-slaying war. In the following period, a comprehensive cleanup was carried out, and the nine bases of the Demon Soul Dao were completely destroyed.
In the process of wiping out the nine major bases, it was discovered that three of the nine super aristocratic families in the world were providing material and financial resources channels for Demon Soul Dao. As a result, the Gao family, the Li family, and the Wang family, these three families The families that ranked among the top three super families were immediately plunged into turmoil.
After Jun Yinglian and Xue Danru, the two most thoughtful and experienced women, came to confirm it in person, the three major families were removed from Qingyun Tianyu within a few days!
I don’t know if it was because of pulling out the carrots and bringing out the mud, but several forces were found to be involved with the Demon Soul Dao. This time, it was Piaomiaoyun Palace who came forward to knock these forces into the dust.
The entire Demonic Disaster Territory incident first broke out from the center of the Qingyun Heaven Territory, and then the war started in the center, and then started fighting in all directions, and finally gradually converged to the central location.
The whole process is like a big net, closing the net bit by bit.
Now, it's time to show off.
Because the known strength of Demon Soul Dao, or the only remaining strength, is the East Palace and the West Palace!
"It's too smooth! It's too smooth? This shouldn't be! There must be something wrong. It can't be so smooth!" This is the third time Ye Xiao has expressed such emotion!
As early as when the nine major bases were revealed in succession, Ye Xiao felt vaguely satisfied. For the first time, he had doubts. The nine major bases were almost the foundation and foundation of the Demon Soul Dao force. How could they be wiped out with such overwhelming force? During the annihilation process, the Tianyu Sect Alliance suffered minimal losses, and the casualties were extremely low, far exceeding the initial expectations. It was too smooth!
But then they discovered clues about the three super aristocratic families of Gao, Li, and Wang, who were suspected to be external forces that provided resources and assistance to the Demon Soul Dao. This was a major clue, so it naturally had to be dealt with first. Jun Yinglian and Xue Danru worked together to Went there to investigate the matter. Within a few days, the matter was proved to be true, and the three major families were completely wiped out!
The eradication of the three super aristocratic families that helped the Demon Soul Path was undoubtedly another great victory, but Ye Xiao once again expressed similar emotions. Unfortunately, before the sighs of emotion subsided, another force that had something to do with the Demon Soul Path surfaced... …
After successfully eradicating the hostile forces this time, Ye Xiao was basically certain that there must be a problem here. The current... situation was simply not something that should have occurred.
There's absolutely no way things could go so smoothly?
The super evil organization, which has been dormant for countless years and has become so powerful, failed to form any decent resistance in the face of the hostile forces' requests for advice, and was disintegrated to such an extent by such overwhelming divisions. The number of peripheral forces that have been wiped out in Demon Soul Dao has exceeded millions. If the events in the front of the nine major bases happened suddenly and they were unprepared, it would make sense, but what about the ones behind? Regardless of the remaining major bases, the three super aristocratic families, or even the various forces involved with the Demon Soul Dao, they did not receive any reinforcements during the process of being wiped out.
"Brother Ye is right. I also have a similar strange feeling..." Xue Danru frowned and said, "It's like... someone has spent endless efforts and cultivated it carefully over the years. A huge empire emerged, but it was just waiting for a specific opportunity to be annexed or even destroyed!"
"It can even be said that being annexed and destroyed is the meaning of this empire's existence."
"Only in this way can we explain that the peripheral forces of the Demon Soul Dao, which have been hidden for countless years, will gradually be exposed in a short period of time. During the process of being encircled and suppressed, they never received any assistance except the combat power of their own family. They are simply The abandoned son. The current situation is simply what the higher-ups of Demon Soul Dao want to see, or in other words, it is their ultimate goal.”
Xue Danru frowned: "But, isn't it too unbelievable to do this?!"
After hearing Xue Danru's words, everyone present felt the same and nodded.
Everyone here is a veteran. At the beginning of this operation, they had already made plans to prepare for a long-term battle that would be difficult to obtain at the moment. They even prepared for the psychological preparations for the war to be unsatisfactory, the demons to counterattack, the loss of troops, and a large number of attrition. Next, I was prepared early to think about defeat before thinking about victory. Although I was extremely happy to succeed successfully at this time, I also thought deeply about it. If there was a conspiracy behind this smooth move, and the opponent made such a generous sacrifice, what was his plan? Isn't it easy? As far as the current situation is concerned, this matter is indeed extremely strange.
Even if this battle lasted three years, five years, ten years, or eight years, no one would be surprised; however, the progress was so fast, only half a year, and it had already advanced to this point, but it made everyone doubt the demon soul. I don’t understand Dao’s decision at all.
If you don’t care about these foundations at all, then why build them in the first place? Why has it been kept so mysteriously hidden for tens of thousands of years? Such painstaking efforts in management are just to be destroyed in one fell swoop! ?
This is something that makes no sense no matter where you look at it.
If something is abnormal, it is a monster. Now that things are abnormal, but where is the "monster"? What is the purpose of "demon"?
Everyone has seen this problem, but they are still confused about its source, let alone how to deal with it!
In general, Xuan Bing would just sit quietly behind Ye Xiao and not speak. After all, her official identity is Ye Xiao's concubine, and it is unreasonable for her to speak in this occasion. Even with the examples of Mr. Bai and Wan Xiu, Xuan Bing still does not want to force herself to stand out and make everyone feel disgusted with Ye Xiao!
After all, there are not only the heads and elders of the major sects present, but also Li Wuliang Han Bingxue, a world-famous casual cultivator. Once a grudge arises, no matter whether Ye Xiao minds or not, Xuan Bing will not be able to get over it first.
Of course, there is another more important key, that is... the heads and elders of Piaomiao Yun Palace are also present.
Xuan Bing was hiding as a maid, and no one else could think of anything, let alone make any associations. However, once she spoke out, the possibility of being recognized by the elders of Piaomiao Yun Palace would be too great!
Xuan Bing did not want to expose herself, from beginning to end.
As she said, I just want to be Bing'er... a happy little woman under the protection of my own man.
This has nothing to do with identity and position.
It has nothing to do with fame and glory.
I just want to enjoy my happiness as a woman.
That's enough.
However, Xuan Bing is the signboard and symbol of Piaomiao Yun Palace. She must not exist as a concubine of a man. There is absolutely no room for maneuver. It's like there are some things that only Bing'er can do, but Xuan Bing absolutely cannot do!
But now, seeing that everyone was thinking hard, Xuan Bing finally couldn't help it. She hid behind Ye Xiao and whispered: "Combining the previous intelligence summary, could it be that they just want people to die? The more deaths, the better? Whether these are enemies or... our own people!"
Ye Xiao's heart suddenly jumped.
Suddenly I remembered what Yue Changtian said that day.
"Each altar needs no less than 30 million heads, flesh and blood souls of Dream Yuan Realm cultivators to have a prototype foundation, which is terrifying."
"As for the complete success of an altar, it needs to be further filled with flesh and blood souls of the same or higher level to be truly completed."
"At present, only the first altar has been fully completed; the second one is being fully constructed, and the second altar has been completed by about 70%..."
At least 30 million flesh and blood souls of cultivators above Dream Yuan Realm can build a prototype of an altar! It is necessary to add 30 million flesh and blood souls of cultivators with higher cultivation strength to completely complete an altar!
Doesn't it mean that at least 60 million cultivators above Dream Yuan Realm must be killed to complete an altar.
"... The prototypes of the nine altars can certainly be slowly constructed and completed one by one. It doesn't matter if it takes a long time, but once one of the altars is officially completed, the others must be completed within the shortest time limit!"
"Once there is a break in the middle, it will inevitably have a great impact..."
"That's why they are so anxious..."
...
Ye Xiao's eyes flashed with enlightenment, and he clapped his hands and said, "I know!"
Everyone looked over.
Everyone was still puzzled by this matter, but Lord Xiao completely figured it out because of a word from his maid?
Is this maid too high? !
Well, this is not the focus now, let's study the focus at this stage quickly--
"As far as I know, there are nine altars built by the Demon Lord; the basic construction of the altar can be done slowly, even if it is slower, but starting from the completion of the first altar, there can be no more pauses in the subsequent construction, and the remaining nine altars must be completed in a very short time, so that these altars can play their role."
"And the ultimate goal of the Demon Soul Dao organization has always been the role that can be played after all nine altars are built. Before this premise, anyone and everything must give way, so... the current situation is certainly contrary to common sense, but there are still traces to follow."
"And the necessary condition to complete this altar is that human lives and souls are needed to be continuously filled in until it is saturated before it is considered complete."
"Now, relying solely on their own external killing efficiency, it is far from enough to make progress, so they have to find another way. The only way is to attack their own people. After all, after countless years of accumulation, the number and quality of cultivators they have are extremely impressive. But after all, they are their own people, and there is always resistance to attacking them by themselves, so they rely on us outsiders to complete it. Now that everything has been made clear, then... once we kill their people, because of the basic control methods of the Demon Soul Dao, the souls of the dead will be guided directly back to the altar. "
"Combining the current situation, it can be confirmed that for the high-level Demon Soul Dao, or that demon lord, what he wants is no longer the hegemony of the rivers and lakes, but the full completion of the altar. Therefore, they really don't care how many of them we kill. "
"In fact, they hope that we kill as many people as possible. This will be more conducive to their progress in completing the altar. "
"Anyway, the people who are sweeping now are all peripheral troops, not their core strength at all, Shangzhi Wushang! "
"So, this seemingly incredible and incredible situation has appeared..."
"Next, there is a high chance that they will proactively provide us with intelligence clues for us to kill."
"This is why I have been wondering in the past few days, why the information was obtained so easily, and so timely, without any errors or omissions. Because this is what the Demon Soul Dao deliberately revealed to us, and it was for us to kill. If If it’s wrong, wouldn’t it mean that the effect won’t be achieved…”
"Even if we kill everyone, it doesn't matter... As long as the Demon Lord can complete these nine altars, then he will be the winner!"
Ye Xiao's face turned gloomy as he finally came to this conclusion.
"This is a dilemma. Those people on the other side have always turned into monsters, and we must kill them."
Xue Danru frowned and said: "If you don't kill, something like this will inevitably happen. If you kill, you will become the demon lord's accomplice and achieve the nine altars... No matter what choice you make, this matter will be the same." It’s wrong, how can we break the situation?”
Everyone also let out a long sigh.
How could something like this still happen in this world, even if you kill it or not kill it?
The standard dilemma.
"It may not make more sense to think about it more now. Judging from the current situation, we have almost wiped out the opponent's peripheral forces. If we do it, we will do it. There is no need to regret it. As for the remaining ones, we are destined to not be able to overturn them. What a big wave." Ye Xiao took a deep breath and said: "Since the situation has developed to this point, let's go straight to Huanglong!"
"Go straight to Huanglong? Attack the West Palace directly? Or target the East Palace first?" Lei Dadi's white beard fluttered.
"It's better to attack the East Palace first." Ye smiled and said: "If they still insist on this strategy, then I'm afraid even the East Palace will give us as trophies. Instead of leaving a big force like the East Palace alone, it will cause It’s better to take advantage of this opportunity to eliminate the hidden danger. At least we can minimize our losses due to attrition during the war, and be able to face the upper echelons of the Demon Soul Path, and even the Demon Lord, with the most complete and powerful combat power!”
"Of course, we can fulfill their wishes, but we cannot allow our ambitions to succeed. As long as we deploy the Sunday blockade formation in advance when eradicating the East Palace. Using the formation to block the psychic fluctuations within the East Palace, In addition to annihilating the forces of the East Palace, I directly smashed the entire East Palace. I believe that the power of heaven with the Zhoutian Sealing Formation will definitely be able to complete this devastating move that will destroy the body, soul, and soul along with it; I I don’t believe that under the influence of the power of heaven... the Demon Lord Altar can still receive the afterglow of the new wave of death energy of the dead..."
"It's just that after the battle in the East Palace, we need to face the enemy's strongest stronghold, which is the West Palace! According to my estimation, the battle in the West Palace will be the most brutal battle in our lives and yours. We The desperate move against the East Palace will definitely make the other party alert, and there will no longer be a death strategy, and even... the other party will go to extremes because of this, and try our best to counterattack, because we people can also be used as nutrients for the Demon Soul Altar. Therefore... the battle against the West Palace will be an unprecedented extreme battle. Everyone must be prepared. There are reasons why we have to fight and win for others, ourselves, and the world! "
Ye Xiao's voice also became a little gloomy.
"Sunday Blockade Formation..."
Everyone gasped.
This is the most extreme and vicious extermination formation known to everyone. It is said in ancient times that once the Zhou Tian Blocking Formation is formed, any creature in the formation, including any energy fluctuations, will be sealed in the formation. Within the formation!
This formation is named after Zhou Tian, but it uses the formation to forcibly move the vast power of 365 stars, and pours it into an area under the guidance of the power of heaven. Completely seal off this area.
Under the overwhelming power of Heaven, absolutely no life can escape from the formation in any form!
To put it more bluntly, even the chickens and dogs will not be left alive, and even the flowers, plants and trees will no longer have a chance to survive!
Completely and completely turned into a dead zone!
This is the most vicious formation in Qingyun Tianyu.
none of them.
This formation is too harmful to Tianhe, and it has been rare to see it since ancient times. Of course, the idea of harming Tianhe is a bit higher. Another necessary element of this formation also makes the chance of its appearance extremely slim.
To successfully arrange the formation, it requires at least thirty-six Daoyuan Realm ninth-level masters to concentrate all their power, plus some rare treasures of heaven and earth, and arrange them according to the target terrain.
It can be said that in addition to the fact that the person setting up the formation does not need to die, the difficulty of setting up this formation is still higher than the life cage, which is so overbearing!
"If we go through the Zhoutian Blockade Formation, then the area where the East Palace is stationed will not be able to breed any life for thousands of years. Is this really necessary..." Lei Dadi's white beard trembled and he murmured. .
"Subject to urgency, if we don't go to such an extreme, perhaps the entire Qingyun Heavenly Territory will no longer be able to breed any life for thousands or even tens of millions of years. Can we take this risk?!" Ye Xiao asked calmly. road.
Everyone felt their vests go cold.
But thinking about it, Ye Xiao's words are quite reasonable.
If the Devil Soul Dao Altar is completed, then... the entire Qingyun Heavenly Territory may really become extinct.
Before the Demon Soul Altar is completed, it needs so many living beings to fill in the gaps. The price is so staggering. If it is completed seriously, its power will be unrivaled, and Qingyun Tianyu will become a land of demons. The lesser of two evils, this time The action is indeed necessary!
Everyone understood the seriousness of the matter and fell silent.
"This matter is settled!"
Ye Xiao made a neat and tidy decision: "Everyone set out at dawn, concentrate your own fighting power, and prepare various materials and spirit crystals needed for the formation. At this time of fierce war, don't hide your selfishness. I don't want to see any mistakes. The specialty of Qionghua Moon Palace, the Immaculate Lotus Seed, needs ten; and the Shen Ke Jade Lotus, well, I can provide a hundred; and various..."
Ye Xiao gave a lot of instructions on the natural materials and treasures needed, and everyone who was named felt a toothache.
"Within three days, all members must rush to the East Palace Mountain. Before dark in the fifth day, we must set up the Zhoutian blockade formation; at dawn on the sixth day, we will launch a full-scale offensive!"
Ye Xiao's face was full of an iron-blooded killing aura: "In this battle, we will cut off another arm of the Demon Soul Dao evil demon!"
"If this battle is as expected, there is still strength to spare and the damage is not great, then after the battle of the East Palace, we will immediately set off to the West Palace and start the final decisive battle!"
The plan was settled. Ye Xiao stopped talking, closed his eyes, concentrated on regulating the spiritual energy in his body, conserving his energy, and concentrating on preparing for the battle.
And all the people present at the meeting set off one after another to prepare the many precious resources needed to set up the Zhoutian blockade formation.
An elder of Piaomiaoyun Palace, before getting up, glanced at Xuanbing behind Ye Xiao with doubts in his eyes. Xuanbing lowered his eyebrows and pretended not to see it, standing still and not saying a word.
The elder finally went out.
