The Sword Sage of the Limitless slammed his fist onto the table and said gravely, "Five days against nine. That leaves a gap of four days. Those four days are the difference between life and death. If we can hold out four days longer, the situation will be completely different. The question is, how?"
True Lord Dao Origin stroked his beard and said slowly, "Could we find a way to delay the Blood God Sect's offensive? Send people to raid their provisions, for instance, assassinate their commanders, or sow chaos behind their lines?"
"As long as we can distract them, their attacks will weaken, and the formation will hold out a few more days."
Azure Profound True Person shook his head. "I've considered those methods too. But that old devil Blood Cloud is far too shrewd. After suffering one setback, he's tightened security around his camp so much that not even a fly could get in."
"It was already a miracle that Lin Feng managed to steal the Blood Pearl."
"Another raid would be difficult. Besides, he has two Mid True God elders guarding him at all times. Assassinating him is nothing but a fool's dream."
Everyone fell silent. Only the crackling of candle flames could be heard in the great hall.
Lin Feng suddenly spoke. "Sect Master, I have an idea."
Everyone's gaze settled on him.
Azure Profound True Person looked at him. "Speak."
Lin Feng stood up. "The reason Blood Cloud True Person can drain the formation's energy so quickly is that he puts his full strength into every palm strike, and every strike hits the formation's core."
"If we can distract him so he can't attack at full strength, the formation will last a few more days. Every measure of distraction means one less measure of energy
