Chapter 1113: A Pack of Wolves Hunting

"Kill the chicken to scare the monkey?"

Ancestor Hongyi looked at Lu Yu with interest and said, "Tell me, how do you kill them specifically?"

Lu Yu smiled faintly and said, "Just before the ancestor came over, I had just read the military intelligence reports submitted by various sects during this period of time... The scouts sent by our Dali Sword Sect are undoubtedly very attentive. Not only do they know the location of the enemy's main force clearly, but they also have a rough grasp of the number of troops they have dispatched."

"At present, the hostile forces entrenched around the Dali Sword Sect include Yuhai Xianzong, Wuya Xian Pavilion, Shenhuo Xuanzong, Hunyuan Qi Sect, The five major sects of the Bixiao Palace, the total number of soldiers dispatched by these five major sects, totaled more than 300,000, several times more than our Dali Sword Sect, and they dispatched the elite of the elite this time, and the overall strength and quality are even better than ours...

"Relying on our Dali Sword Sect alone, we want to confront this 300,000-strong army head-on, which is tantamount to a mantis trying to stop a chariot. Even with the assistance of the Daluo Holy Land, it is still difficult to win..."

Ancestor Hongyi said: "This is indeed the dilemma we are facing at present, but weren't you confident that there was a way to solve this crisis? Why are you backing down now?"

Lu Yu's eyes were deep, and he said: "Disciple is not backing down. As the saying goes, knowing yourself and the enemy, you can fight a hundred battles without danger. We must have a clear understanding of the enemy we are facing, so that we can find its flaws and find a way to defeat the enemy... I am just stating the facts objectively now, which does not mean that I am afraid of it in my heart. "

After a pause, he continued, "When I was practicing swordsmanship in the past, I saw a group of wolves hunting in the wild. At that time, there was a wounded bison surrounded by a group of hungry wolves. The wolves were already hungry and wanted to eat the bison meat to fill their stomachs, but they were worried about the bison's counterattack before death, so they did not dare to launch a general attack. Finally, they let two hungry wolves keep baring their teeth and claws in front of the bison to attract the bison's attention, and the rest waited for an opportunity to move on the side, ready to pounce on the bison's belly at any time..."

"Ancestor, do you think this scene of a group of wolves hunting is similar to the current situation of our Dali Sword Sect?"

Ancestor Hongyi said, "Do you mean that the five major sects that besieged us are the group of hungry wolves, Yuhai Xianzong and Wuya Xian Pavilion are responsible for baring their teeth and claws in front of the formation, and our Dali Sword Sect is a wounded bison?"

Lu Yu said, "Yes! The five sects are like a pack of hungry wolves, and they are far from being as disciplined as a pack of wolves! "

"Only the Yuhai Xianzong and Wuya Xiange are deeply hostile to our Dali Sword Sect. The other three sects are either interested in interests or forced by the situation. This is why they followed Fengying. Otherwise, the war would not have lasted for so long. They never went to the front line, but just surrounded us without attacking..."

"Since they came for the sake of interests and the situation, as long as we try to change the current situation and break the balance, their alliance will naturally fall apart, and the crisis faced by our Dali Sword Sect will also be solved. "

"With the power of the wild bull, it is indeed beyond its ability to fight against a whole group of hungry wolves, but as long as it catches the weakest one among them, launches an attack with its horns, and directly pierces the hungry wolf's belly, this move will surely deter the wolves and make them dare not take risks easily again!"

At this time, the ancestor Hongyi finally understood Lu Yu's meaning and said, "Is this what you call killing the chicken to scare the monkey? If we can successfully eliminate one of the five sects, it will indeed have a good deterrent effect... But who do you think is the most suitable one among the five sects to hang on the horns? "

Lu Yu's eyes are calm, and he slowly answered: "Shenhuo Xuanzong."

"Why? "Ancestor Hongyi asked.

To be honest, Lu Yu's answer was beyond his expectations. He never thought that the first person Lu Yu wanted to attack would be the Divine Fire Sect.

Lu Yu said: "Among the five major sects, the Divine Fire Sect's troops are deployed farthest from us. It seems that they are outside the entire battle situation. The threat to us is far less urgent than other sects, but the power they play in this is really not small..."

"The Divine Fire Sect is famous for its alchemy skills. More than 90% of the elixir business in the world is directly or indirectly controlled by the Divine Fire Sect. This allows them to accumulate a lot of wealth and control a large amount of material resources. Although they did not directly participate in the war, they greatly improved the combat effectiveness of the other major sects by providing elixirs in an endless supply. This is no different from their direct participation in the war, and the effect is even better than their direct participation in the war! "

"If we can directly defeat the Divine Fire Xuan Sect, it will not only have a deterrent effect of killing the chicken to scare the monkey, but also greatly weaken the enemy's supply force, thus achieving twice the result with half the effort!"

"In addition, as early as after the battle of the Golden Rooster Islands and Huiyue Bay, the Divine Fire Xuan Sect had already begun to stockpile alchemy materials, especially rare materials such as rare treasures, which were under their strict control. It can be said that the Divine Fire Xuan Sect now has a huge amount of material stockpiles. If we can defeat them in one fell swoop and then obtain their material inventory, this will turn into a huge capital for us to fight against powerful enemies in the future!"

Ancestor Hongyi took a deep look at Lu Yu and said, "It is said that you are extremely proficient in elixir refining, and the elixirs you refine have unfathomable power. The previous series of battles were also thanks to the elixirs you provided. Only then can the situation be stabilized... Some people say that you have obtained the true inheritance of Taisu Patriarch, and that is why you have such profound knowledge in alchemy. Is this true or false? "

When Lu Yu heard this, his heart brightened.

On the surface, it seems that Patriarch Hongyi is asking about the connection between himself and Patriarch Taisu, but in fact he is asking about his true origin.

It seemed that he was inevitably suspicious of his identity after all, and couldn't help but want to ask about the specific origin of his inheritance.

However, although he is the ancestor of Tiangang, the two of them are on equal status at this time. There is no need for Lu Yu to give him too much face...

Without blinking an eye, he said: "My alchemy skills were taught by an immortal in my sleep. As for the specific identity of the immortal, he did not mention it to me. Ancestor Su, I don’t know..."

Ancestor Hongyi shook his head and said: "Since you don't want to say it, just pretend that I have never mentioned it... I just want to know one thing, if you really get the inventory of Shenhuo Xuanzong, you will personally be responsible for bringing those rare treasures Can the materials be refined into elixirs?"

Lu Yu raised his eyebrows and said without hesitation: "Of course! For the sake of the sect, it is the disciple's duty to do so!"

"Okay!" Ancestor Hongyi nodded and said: "In that case, I agree with this matter... I wonder how you plan to attack Shenhuo Xuanzong?"

Lu Yu's eyes flashed, and his voice revealed a decisive meaning:

"Of course it's a surprise attack on Huoshenshan and wipe out their lair!"
