Ji Lingxi said in surprise, "But why do I feel that this is already the best tactic against you? You basically haven't counterattacked throughout the entire day. Isn't this already an unwinnable position?"
"An unwinnable position can also be an undefeatable position! It's impossible for them to exhaust me to death with such a tactic. "
Yun Yang smiled faintly. "Think about it. I stand still and make sure that I don't lose. Although I can't win, I can't lose either. The other party, on the other hand, has to choose which direction to advance and retreat to, and they have to use their full strength in every attack. The energy they expend is a few times more than mine. My current cultivation base is higher than most of them. How can I be exhausted to death? If this tactic could really work, do you think there would be such an opening now? "
Ji Lingxi smiled. "Then why don't you choose to attack first? Although the other party's attacks are intense, there have been a few openings throughout the day. Although those openings were fleeting, they were real. If we had aimed and attacked, it wouldn't be difficult to kill one or two of them! "
"Because if we were to attack first … we would be falling into their trap instead."
Yun Yang smiled faintly. "I can almost be sure that the ultimate goal of their battle today is to make us unable to endure it and attack first. Only then will they have the chance to separate us and defeat us one by one."
"The other side obviously values you very much, and they're even helpless, which is why they're passively using this completely inefficient tactic. But if their plan succeeds, we'll be split into two, and they won't have to worry about you anymore. They only need to use the strength of a few people to restrain you, and then they can concentrate all their strength to kill me in the shortest amount of time possible."
Yun Yang smiled faintly. "As long as they kill me, they don't even need to care about you anymore. You can just leave. Your existence doesn't affect the overall situation, you can't shake the colossus that is the Four Seasons Tower. "
"Do you understand now? This is the fundamental reason why they're using such an exhausting tactic. "
Yun Yang spoke to Ji Lingxi as he fended off the ever-present attacks. Although he was not at ease, he was still able to handle the situation with ease.
Yun Yang had spoken openly. He did not intentionally lower his voice, nor did he use telepathy. He had just said it out loud in a straightforward manner.
Therefore, not only did Ji Lingxi hear these words clearly, even the experts of the Four Seasons Tower who were hiding in the dark could hear them clearly.
This was the Four Seasons Tower's ultimate goal.
Yun Yang had hit the nail on the head.
As Yun Yang's speech came to an end, the Four Seasons Tower's attacking rhythm was suddenly disrupted. In the next quarter of an hour, the attacks had completely disappeared.
"What you said just now wasn't meant for me to hear, was it?" Ji Lingxi smiled sweetly.
Yun Yang chuckled. "How is it not for you? I'm answering your deliberate question just now!"
Ji Lingxi chuckled as well. "Of course we have to explain to them. Otherwise, they'll think that they've fallen into their trap."
Yun Yang said, "Mr. Nian's stratagem isn't limited to this. He must have a backup plan. He won't let me get away with it so easily, so … I must be more vigilant next."
Ji Lingxi nodded.
What Yun Yang had said earlier had obviously exposed the Four Seasons Tower's wishful thinking. Therefore, there was no further action in the quarter of an hour that followed.
However, the rhythm of the attacks that followed was far more explosive than before.
It was still the same as before!
It had not changed.
Instead, it had intensified!
Countless heavy weapons rained down on Yun Yang like a torrential downpour.
Ji Lingxi was rather annoyed. Why was it that after exposing the enemy's plan, not only did they not change their strategy, but they continued to carry it out even more intensely?
This was illogical.
The Four Seasons Tower's experts continued to exert pressure on the Four Seasons Tower with their frequent attacks.
It was to the extent that after someone had muttered something, intentionally or otherwise, they simply turned into countless boulders that came crashing down.
The area of attack was much larger than before. Naturally, they could no longer care about avoiding Ji Lingxi. They came crashing down without a care for the consequences or the cost.
However, what surprised the Four Seasons Tower's men was that when the boulders hit Ji Lingxi, the boulders did not return to the person who had launched the attack despite being turned into dust from the recoil. It was obvious that the force that the boulders could withstand was too limited and the counterattack was too strong. Before the recoil could be formed, the boulders had already turned into dust!
In spite of this, the Four Seasons Tower's men were unprecedentedly elated. They thought that they had found the right way to subdue Ji Lingxi, so every boulder that came crashing down was massive, like a small hill.
Super experts like the Four Seasons Tower had infused the boulders with a considerable amount of mystical Qi and smashed them down viciously. It was not just one person, there were at least twenty people fighting in the same way at the same time. The combined force of the attack was earth-shattering!
In spite of this, the attackers still insisted on not showing themselves, maintaining their initial conservative strategy. After the attack, regardless of whether it was successful or not, they would retreat to their original positions, not giving the enemy a chance to retaliate!
"Maintain the established strategy and exhaust Supreme Cloud to death!"
"So what if you've seen through the tower leader's scheme? Just because you've seen through it doesn't mean that you can handle it! There are so many of us working together, can't we exhaust Supreme Cloud to death? "
It had to be said that such a shameless method of fighting had put Yun Yang in a difficult position.
Indeed, this was the most effective and targeted way to deal with Yun Yang at the moment. Retreating immediately after the attack, Yun Yang would not be able to do anything to these people, no matter how capable he was.
After all, even if it was a face-to-face battle, Yun Yang would need a few strikes to find a chance to finish off one of them, what more when there was a momentary gap in the attacks!
The attacking pattern from all directions was the same. As long as he gave chase, even if he succeeded, he would definitely be cut off from Ji Lingxi's coordination. The result was obviously what the Four Seasons Tower had been hoping for.
Boom, boom, boom …
The endless attacks were relentless. Ranged, close, and high, there was no loophole in the attack.
This kind of scene that absolutely should not have appeared in a battle between peak experts, but it continued to play out in an unusually strange way here, one after another.
Seeing that the other party's attacks were continuing, Yun Yang and Ji Lingxi could not help changing their strategy as well, taking turns to defend themselves. Each of them would last for a quarter of an hour before switching to another person to fight for some time to catch their breath. After a day, both of them were not injured, but they were covered in dust and their mystical Qi was severely depleted.
Yet, the other party showed no signs of stopping, as if they planned to continue this single tactic until the end of time.
Both of their expressions subconsciously turned grim.
Could such a simple tactic really restrain them and cause the previous advantageous situation to be completely gone?
