Besiege the Stronghold to Ambush Reinforcements

"With the Twin Peaks Standing Side by Side, if we focus all our efforts on attacking one of them, we will be vulnerable to attacks from behind. If we split our forces, we will not have enough strength. With the support of the Third-Tier Spirit Veins, Xuankong Valley and Leishi Peak cannot be taken without the simultaneous attacks of three or four Golden Core Cultivators," Mister Shuijing analyzed.

"I think we should reveal our respective strengths first, otherwise we won't be able to coordinate our actions," said True Person Wanshi, looking at the other three.

Upon hearing this, Madam Gui's eyes flickered, Mister Shuijing stroked his beard with a calm expression, and Yang Danglong just chuckled without responding.

Seeing this, True Person Wanshi gave a wry smile and spoke first, "You probably already know my strength Dual Cultivation of Spell and Body, and I should be in the upper-middle tier among Early Golden Core cultivators. I am good at close combat and have a pretty good defense, but speed is my weakness."

In addition, I have a Third-Tier Lower-Grade -Formation-Breaking Talisman, which should be helpful for this operation.

Finally, regarding the commander's cultivators, he has eleven Foundation Establishment Cultivators and eighty-nine Qi Refining cultivators under his command. These are all temporarily recruited, untrained individuals who do not know any combined attack Formations.

Upon hearing this, the other three Golden Core Cultivators exchanged a glance and nodded almost imperceptibly.

Mister Shuijing then introduced himself, "I am at the Middle Golden Core realm, and my strength should be ranked in the middle range among those of the same level. I am skilled at binding and controlling enemies."

I have a Third-Tier Lower-Grade War Flying Vessels, with fifteen Foundation Establishment Cultivators and one hundred and nine Qi Refining cultivators under my command, all of whom are scattered and unaffiliated.

However, with Third-Tier Flying Boat, if there are enough Low-Rank Cultivators, they can be used as a Golden Core Combat Strength.

"Third-Tier Flying Boat?"

Mister Shuijing's words surprised the other three, who hadn't expected this guy to possess such a treasure.

The third to speak was Madam Gui.

She smiled alluringly, her voice carrying a natural seductive charm, soft and tingling, instantly arousing desire in those who heard it.

"I don't have any Formation-Breaking Talisman or Third-Tier Flying Boat, but I do have a third- Third-Tier Vengeful Ghost under my command. My own combat strength is also decent; I'm not at the bottom among Early Golden Core cultivators. As for my subordinate forces, I have eight Foundation Establishment Cultivators and seventy-two Qi Refining cultivators."

Third-Tier Vengeful Ghost?

The other three Golden Core Cultivators gave her a deep look; this woman was no pushover, capable of raising a Third-Tier Vengeful Ghost.

Yang Danglong spoke last, looking at the three of them, "I only recently broke through to the Golden Core Realm, and my combat strength is probably at the bottom among Early Golden Core cultivators. However, I am a Third-Tier Formation Master, and I also have a Third-Tier Formation Disc, which is also a sealing type. As for the cultivators under my command, there are a total of eighteen Foundation Establishment Cultivators and forty-three Qi Refining cultivators."

Yang Danglong was not telling the truth. He had just formed Second-Rank Golden Core and had only recently broken through, but with his Third-Tier Natal Formation Artifact and incomparably pure Law Power, his combat strength was by no means weaker than that of the True Person Wanshi.

Not to mention, his Storage Ring also contained a large number of trump cards he brought from his Lineage. He had everything from Third-Tier Forbidden Artifacts and Third-Tier Puppets to Third-Tier Talisman.

But unless Yang Danglong is out of his mind, how could he possibly reveal all of his strength?

He believed that the other three Golden Core Cultivators must also have many hidden secrets, but probably not as many as he had.

After listening to Yang Danglong's words, Mister Shuijing said, "If we calculate it this way, with the power of the Third-Tier Flying Boat and Madam Gui's Third-Tier Vengeful Ghost, we will have six Golden Core Combat Strength."

In addition, there are Third Tier Formation-Breaking Talisman and Third Tier sealing Formations, which far exceed the apparent strength of the Qi Household.

"The Qi Household should not be underestimated. It's no small feat that this Lineage survived the invasion of the Demon Sea. We must be fully prepared," True Person Wanshi cautioned with concern.

Mister Shuijing nodded. "That's natural. Now let's discuss which of the Qi Household's strongholds to attack."

Madam Gui stroked the Jadeite Bracelet on her wrist and said in a coquettish voice, "I think we should attack Leishi Peak. Xuankong Valley is defended by Qi Sijie, the Old Ancestor of the Qi Household. He is an old fox and not easy to deal with."

Conversely, although Leishi Peak has two Golden Core Cultivators, they are younger and less experienced than Qi Sijie. In their haste and disarray, they are more likely to give us an opening.

Upon hearing this, the True Person Wanshi nodded in agreement.

Mister Shuijing objected, saying, "It is precisely because Qi Sijie is even more cunning and treacherous that we cannot keep him behind us, but should keep him in front of us."

If the Qi Household has any hidden trump cards, they must be in Qi Sijie's hands. Rather than giving him the opportunity to attack from behind, it's better to expose them openly. Open attacks are always easier to deal with than sneaky arrows.

After Mister Shuijing finished speaking, Yang Danglong also spoke up, "I agree with Daoist Friends Shui Jing, but I think it would be better to attack from both sides simultaneously rather than focusing on just one point."

"What do you mean?" asked the True Person Wanshi, frowning.

"We can make Xuankong Valley our main target, then set up an ambush along the way to intercept the Qi Household reinforcements at Leishi Peak. This is called Besiege the Stronghold to Ambush Reinforcements the reinforcements," Yang Danglong said with a sly smile, looking at the three of them.

"Besiege the Stronghold to Ambush Reinforcements..." Mister Shuijing's eyes brightened slightly. "This plan is feasible, but it requires a Communication Law Artifact to maintain real-time contact; otherwise, we may not be able to intercept and kill the Qi Household on Leishi Peak."

"What if they don't come to our aid?" Madam Gui suddenly asked.

Upon hearing this, a cold glint flashed in Mister Shuijing's eyes. "Not coming out? Hmph, if the Qi Household on Leishi Peak still doesn't come out to support us after we've worn down more than half of the Spirit Vein power of Xuankong Valley, then the Daoist Friends in charge of fighting for reinforcements should just abandon the operation and come to attack Xuankong Valley with us."

With the power of the Third Tier Formation-Breaking Talisman, we can definitely break through their Clan-Guarding Formation in a short time. By then, even if the people from Leishi Peak want to come out to help, it will be too late."

Upon hearing this, the four Golden Core Cultivators laughed and prepared to carry out the plan.
