Everyone's eyes lit up with golden light.
Duan Dongqing, Zong Ya, Shen Wei, Dongfang Yao, and the others all gathered closer. They all wanted to know what spell art could immobilize nine Nascent Soul Cultivators with nothing but a mouth.
Nan Shang was introverted to begin with. With so many questioning gazes turned on him, his face immediately reddened to the tips of his ears.
His bright eyes flickered as he backed away a little.
"I don't know exactly what this spell art is like. I only know that the phrase means winning through strategy and averting warfare is the superior approach."
"After all, any fighting incurs losses, whether it costs you lifespan or damages your divine soul or physical body."
"Isolating your opponent through negotiations is the next-best strategy."
"I think it's called forging vertical alliances and horizontal coalitions?"
"And when none of those work, we can only cross blades at close quarters like this, using war to end war."
"The worst case is attacking someone else's sect or city. That's the lowest form of conflict."
The Golden Wing Sect cultivators all nodded thoughtfully for show, but in truth, they understood only bits and pieces, unaware of the deeper meaning.
After all, when it came to cultural depth, they naturally couldn't compare with Lin Ke, who had come from Dragon Country in his previous life.
Rumble...
Just then, everyone heard a tremendous crash from the center of the battlefield. The jade Buddha statues formed by the nine Buddhist Radiance Treasure Arrays exploded.
The Buddhist cultivators fell out of the statues, crashing to the ground one after another.
Then all nine berserk cultivators ran about madly, slaughtering every shell of the Jade Great Radiance Church on the ground. In the end, the nine of them also died on the ground.
