Heaven-Scheming Hall.
Initially, Mu Fusheng and Xu Yeming did not take action immediately, but instead hid behind the scenes to gather intelligence.
Based on the experience of my fellow disciples at Cottage and the current situation...
The processes for passing the trials at the Good Water Hall, the Hegemonic Enterprise Hall, and the Heaven-Scheming Hall are all different.
Then, those who possess a special path of cultivation face different trials.
Considering the initial test of humanity...
To perfectly pass the test of the Heaven-Scheming Hall, one must approach the test from the perspective of a strategist.
This perfectly aligns with Mu Fusheng Xu Yeming's thoughts.
Mu Fusheng concealed his presence, not only preventing the enemy soldiers in the independent space from discovering him, but also making it impossible for cultivators in other independent spaces to see through Mu Fusheng... they couldn't even see a shadow of him!
And Xu Yeming...?
The people in the other independent spaces watched helplessly as Xu Yeming... no, it should be said that he was " Xu Luo ".
First, he issued orders from the city wall. When the enemy soldiers charged in, he fought back desperately, but did not go out of the city to launch an attack. At the same time, he gave the soldiers talismans and array scrolls in case they were too weak to even defend themselves in their current state.
He then retreated slightly to a position where the enemy could not see him clearly, used a substitute puppet to replace himself, and went back onto the city wall.
Xu Luo put on a mask and suppressed his aura without being seen by the other party. His clothing was also modeled after the armor of the enemy soldiers.
When the enemy charged up to the city wall, they simply blended in with them.
And that's how this scene came about.
Xu Luo, who was originally supposed to be stationed in the city, "defected" to the enemy and shouted loudly to his own soldiers on the city wall from within the enemy camp.
"Kill! Let's crush this city together!!!"
They're really putting a lot of effort into promoting BYD.
Several veins are bulging on his neck!
Xu Chen and Xu Yeming were in the same ruins, and also in the Heaven-Scheming Hall.
He frowned as he watched " Xu Luo " the whole time.
However, his own situation didn't seem to be much better, so upon seeing this, he directed his soldiers to defend against the attack.
How can one achieve victory when facing a numerically superior enemy force?
Or, to put it another way, how can one hold out for seven days under such a stark disparity in combat strength?
The combat strength of the Heaven-Scheming Hall is slightly higher than that of the Good Water Hall and the Hegemonic Enterprise Hall.
In Xu Yeming's view, defending the city by the book was doomed to failure unless external aids were used throughout.
But does relying too much on external aids in the trials contradict the original purpose of the trials Heaven-Scheming Hall?
Of course, Mu Fusheng's tactical use of external objects doesn't count... Moreover, just to be on the safe side, Mu Fusheng also engraved dozens of talismans on the spot.
Can talismans carved by a talisman master himself be considered external objects?
Xu Yeming's plan was to infiltrate the enemy ranks and then... follow the clues to a junior commander in the Early Lord Divine Realm, saying, "Commander, the ten-mile stretch of the city wall on the left is their weak point. Why don't we lead a single force to break through from there?"
The commander, seated atop a warhorse covered in crystal, remained oblivious to Xu Yeming's identity upon hearing this.
After infiltrating the enemy ranks, Xu Yeming silently killed one person and then adjusted his aura based on that person's figure.
The commander frowned and asked, "How did you find out?"
Xu Yeming pointed and said, "Reporting to the commander, during the charge, I discovered that I hadn't alerted the enemy, so I rushed back to report."
The commander looked in the direction Xu Yeming was pointing, "If the intelligence is wrong, do you know the consequences...?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he felt a wave of dizziness.
"You..." The commander's face was filled with terror, but the expression of terror only lasted for a moment before his face froze.
Xu Yeming, on the other hand, secretly used a wisp of his aura to hold back the commander's body.
His other hand was holding a small bottle.
In the midst of the chaos and smoke of war, Xu Yeming quickly dragged the commander away, then removed his clothes and replaced them with his own. He used a disguise mask to change the commander's appearance, while he himself assumed the commander's aura, physique, and armor.
He then quietly threw the commander off his horse, where he fell into the throngs of iron hooves, trampled by countless charging warhorses until his body was reduced to a bloody pulp...
"Hmm, Senior Sister Mu Mu's powder for treating nervous rigidity is really effective. I've never seen any poison that affects the nerves before... I wonder where she learned that."
The medicine bottle was carefully put away.
Xu Yeming raised the flag in his hand and roared, " Crystal Army! Come closer!"
The Crystal Army was the army led by this commander.
Military orders are absolute.
Despite their confusion, the Crystal Army members still flew over.
Xu Yeming took out dozens of scrolls and handed them to everyone.
"Commander, what is this?" one of them asked in confusion.
Xu Yeming frowned and said sternly, "Never mind that. You just need to take this scroll and go separately to the center of each army unit in front of the city wall. Once you arrive, wait for my order to unfold it. It will have an amplifying effect within a hundred miles."
The ruler possesses such a divine object?
One of the deputy commanders asked in surprise, "Commander, where did this come from? Why didn't you bring it out sooner?"
Xu Yeming said without batting an eye, "This was bought from a senior by emptying my own savings. What is this sacrifice for the sake of our country?"
Righteous and awe-inspiring!
The members of the Crystal Army looked up at Xu Yeming with expressions of reverence.
"As expected of the commander! Truly selfless and impartial!"
Xu Yeming waved his hand and said seriously, "Go quickly, the war is of utmost importance. I will go and report this situation to the commander-in-chief."
Upon hearing this, the Crystal Army immediately took to the skies and headed there!
Xu Yeming, on the other hand, sat astride his crystal warhorse, which leaped into the air, its iron hooves pounding the void, and galloped toward the command post.
The cultivators in the other independent spaces, while fighting, witnessed Xu Yeming's actions and words, and couldn't help but fall silent.
Xu Luo and the others had either met him or heard of him.
The most talented among the younger generation of the Xu Clan.
But...
This behavior seems completely different from what they've heard and seen!
"How should I put it... isn't this Xu Clan heir a bit... sleazy? He uttered such a lie without a single expression."
"Um... I saw him at a conference before, but he was clearly very arrogant..."
"Did you suffer some kind of shock? Or is your head injured?"
Xu Chen's brows furrowed even deeper.
Xu Yeming arrived at the commander's camp.
In front of the tent, the commander frowned at Xu Yeming and asked, "Commander Crystal, is there something important to report?"
Xu Yeming took out the scroll and handed it to the commander, saying earnestly, "This is a group amplification formation that I purchased at great expense from a senior. Commander, please wait for my men to be in position and then activate it through this scroll. I have already arranged for the Crystal Army to take these scrolls to their respective armies."
At this point, Xu Yeming sensed the location of the painting.
Hmm, there are still two outermost units that haven't been deployed yet.
But the commander said speechlessly, "An array? Do you think I'm stupid? Isn't this a painting?"
Xu Yeming said earnestly, "Then just think of it as a painting."
