The Holy Master sat on his seat and looked at the person standing in front of him. His expression was very unsightly. It was obvious that he was in a bad mood.
The person standing in front of him bowed slightly. His face was a little pale. This paleness wasn't because he was frightened, but because he had yet to recover from his injuries.
The person standing was the Blue Dragon Elder. He had suffered serious injuries when he broke out of the encirclement of the Sea Exploring Sect's army and had yet to recover.
The Holy Master looked at the Blue Dragon Elder's appearance and sighed. "Elder Blue Dragon, please take a seat. It's really been hard on you this time. You should also tell us about the situation of the Sea Exploring Sect in detail."
The Blue Dragon Elder looked at the Holy Master with an ashamed expression and said, "Holy Master, I have failed you. This defeat caused the Holy Gate to lose more than 100 million people. This is all my fault. Please punish me, Holy Master."
The Holy Master waved his hand and said, "Alright, now isn't the time to talk about this. Tell us in detail about the process of the battle with the Sea Exploring Sect. Let us know more about the Sea Exploring Sect. This is the most important thing. Tell us in detail."
The Blue Dragon Elder nodded. Then, he recounted the entire process of the battle with the Sea Exploring Sect in detail. From when they arrived at the Chicken Heart Ridge's defensive line, how they arranged the defensive line, how they started to attack, how they broke the Sea Exploring Sect's formation, how they were led out step by step by the Sea Exploring Sect, how they fought with the Sea Exploring Sect in the Water Droplet Basin, and how they tried to break out of the encirclement but failed. He recounted everything to the Holy Master.
Of course, the Blue Dragon Elder also spoke in detail about the Myriad Buddha Temple. He now knew that the people of the Myriad Buddha Temple had betrayed them in the end. However, he didn't know that Grandmaster Hui De was already dead. He thought that Grandmaster Hui De had led the people of the Myriad Buddha Temple to betray them.
The Sacred Lord listened to him calmly. After he finished speaking, the Sacred Lord nodded, "So that's how it is. It seems like all the information we obtained before was fake or useless. The true strength of the Scouring Sea Sect is much greater than we imagined, right?"
The Azure Dragon Elder said in a deep voice, "Yes, Holy Lord. The Sea Exploring Sect has sent at least 500 million troops to attack us. This is much more than the Sea Exploring Sect's numbers in the intelligence the Myriad Buddha Temple gave us."
The Divine Lord nodded and said, "Right. The people from the Myriad Buddhas Temple told us that the Sea Exploration Sect has 300 million people at most. Now that they've sent 500 million people to attack us, it's impossible for them to not have people in the Sword Spirit Boundary. In other words, the Sea Exploration Sect has more than 500 million people. It seems like the Sea Exploration Sect isn't easy to deal with."
The Blue Dragon Elder said, "Yes, Holy Lord. The people of the Sea Exploration Sect are indeed difficult to deal with. This is something we didn't expect before. Now it seems like we need to pay attention to the Sea Exploration Sect. We even need to place them in the same position as the Will Sect."
The Sacred Lord nodded and said, "Right. The Will Sect is already enough for us. Now that the Sea Exploration Sect has appeared, it seems like we won't be able to have a peaceful time in the future. Blue Dragon Elder, do you have any way to deal with the Sea Exploration Sect?"
The Blue Dragon Elder shook his head and said, "There's nothing we can do right now. We still have 300 million people in the defensive line of the Chicken Heart Ridge. However, these people aren't enough to attack. It's already good enough that we can hold the defensive line. If we want to attack the Sea Exploration Sect, we will need more troops. Moreover, we must mobilize the army."
"Mobilize the army? How many people do we need? " When the Sacred Lord heard the Blue Dragon Elder's words, he was a little curious. He looked at the Blue Dragon Elder and asked with some puzzlement.
If we want to attack the Sea Exploration Sect, we can only take one step at a time and slowly advance. For every step we take, we must establish a defensive line and check the situation around us. We must eliminate all enemies that pose a threat. We must also ensure that the area under our control is absolutely safe. The Sea Exploration Sect cannot attack. Only by slowly advancing step by step can we repel the Sea Exploration Sect. If we have the same number of people, we won't lose in a head-on battle. "
Although the Blue Dragon Elder was defeated by the Sea Exploration Sect, he was still very confident in the combat strength of the Sacred Gate. He believed that they could still defeat the Sea Exploration Sect with the same number of troops in a head-on battle. That was why he said so.
However, when the Sacred Lord heard this, he smiled bitterly. He really didn't know what to say. The Blue Dragon Elder said that they still needed 600 million troops. In other words, excluding the 300 million troops in the defensive line of the Chicken Heart Ridge, they still needed 600 million troops. This number was really too terrifying. In this way, they had 900 million troops to deal with the Sea Exploration Sect. In addition to the 200 million people they lost previously, the number of troops they invested in the battle against the Sea Exploration Sect would reach 1.1 billion troops!
How many troops did the Sacred Gate have in total? A total of 1.5 billion combat-ready troops. However, not all of these combat-ready troops were elites. Some of them were just disciples who had just reached the Energy Shaping Realm. Their Energy Shaping Realm was equivalent to the Qi Refining and Spirit Realm of human cultivators. They had just learned how to fly.
If they invested so many troops to deal with the Sea Exploration Sect, what would the Yi Sect do? Could it be that the Yi Sect would really look at their defense being so empty and not attack them? Would that be possible?
Azure Dragon Elder also knew what Sheng Fang was thinking. He also knew that it was unrealistic to mobilize such a large army to deal with the Sea Exploring Sect. Therefore, he continued, "Divine Lord, in my opinion, it won't be easy for us to deal with the Sea Exploring Sect. In my opinion, we should first defend the Chicken Heart Ridge. Since the Sea Exploring Sect has come to the Demon Spirit Realm, they definitely won't be satisfied with just the South Sea. They will certainly attack us. When they attack, they will have a huge advantage while formations will be useless. At that time, we can rely on the Chicken Heart Ridge to deal with the Sea Exploring Sect."
We can use the defensive line to deal with them. "The Sacred Lord understood the Blue Dragon Elder's intention. The Blue Dragon Elder wanted to wait for the Sea Exploration Sect to attack. As long as the Sea Exploration Sect attacked, they could rely on the defensive line of the Chicken Heart Ridge to deal with them bit by bit. As long as the Sea Exploration Sect's strength was exhausted, they would naturally win. In this way, they wouldn't need to invest too many troops.
What was the biggest reliance of the Sea Exploration Sect? It was none other than their formations. But once they attack, the formations would become useless. When the time comes, the Sea Exploration Sect would have no choice but to fight head-on. The Sacred Lord nodded.
The Divine Lord nodded and said, "Alright, it seems like this is the best way. Let's do it this way. We'll send another 100 million troops to the Chicken Heart Ridge. We must defend that place and strengthen the formations there. Right, isn't the Sea Exploring Sect's large artifacts very strong? Do we have a way to deal with them? "
The Blue Dragon Elder nodded and said, "We do. Sacred Lord, we've arranged a lot of formations in the defensive line of the Chicken Heart Ridge. These formations are all energy formations that can shoot energy beams. If the Sea Exploration Sect's large artifacts attack us, then these formations would be enough to deal with them."
The Sacred Lord nodded and said, "Alright, you can arrange it. You can use the resources of the sect as you wish. But remember, you must not let the Sea Exploration Sect take a single step past the Chicken Heart Ridge."
The Blue Dragon Elder nodded. Then the Sacred Lord continued, "Although the Sea Exploration Sect's numbers have exceeded our expectations, their military strength shouldn't be the same as ours. Therefore, I think that the Sword Spirit Boundary should be very empty right now. If we have a way to enter the Sword Spirit Boundary and attack it, then the Sea Exploration Sect would certainly retreat."
The Blue Dragon Elder nodded and said, "Yes, Sect Lord. I've also thought about this problem. However, it won't be easy to attack the Sword Spirit Boundary. The people of the Sword Spirit Boundary have already arranged formations in their boundary. Aside from their own formations, other formations simply cannot enter the Sword Spirit Boundary. In the past, we wanted to rely on the Myriad Buddha Temple's formations to enter the Sword Spirit Boundary. But later on, we discovered that after the people of the Myriad Buddha Temple entered our Demon Spirit Boundary, the transmission formations that they used became ineffective. Because of this, attacking the Sword Spirit Boundary has become even more difficult."
The Sacred Lord nodded, then he said, "In any case, this is also a path. Go and gather a group of formation experts and have them think of a way to attack the Sword Spirit Boundary. If we can really attack the Sword Spirit Boundary, then the positions of the attackers and defenders will immediately change."
The Blue Dragon Elder nodded. The Sacred Lord then said, "Alright, then you can leave. It seems that we can't be anxious about the Sea Exploration Sect's matter. Then we have to be on guard against the Yi Sect. If the Yi Sect knows about our situation, then they might not be so honest. Therefore, we can't let down our guard against them."
The Blue Dragon Elder nodded and was about to leave when the Sacred Lord stopped him. Then the Sacred Lord's hand moved and a pill was thrown into the Elder's hand. Then the Sacred Lord said, "This is a Dragon Blood Pill. It's very useful for treating injuries. Heal your injuries as soon as possible and don't leave behind any future troubles."
The Blue Dragon Elder gratefully bowed to the Sacred Lord and said, "Thank you, Sect Master. I will certainly solve the Sea Exploration Sect's matter as soon as possible. Please rest assured, Sacred Lord."
The Sacred Lord nodded, then he waved his hand. The Blue Dragon Elder then withdrew. The Sacred Lord looked at the Blue Dragon Elder leaving and couldn't help but sigh. To be honest, he didn't have much confidence in dealing with the Sea Exploration Sect. This was because the Sea Exploration Sect's formation was too powerful. Although it couldn't be used for attack, it was very powerful for defense. With this formation, it would be very difficult for them to drive the Sea Exploration Sect out of the Monster Spirit Boundary.
Now it seems that the Monster Spirit Boundary would no longer be a situation where the Sacred Lord and the Yi Sect would compete for hegemony. If things went wrong, the Sea Exploration Sect would be added to the mix, turning it into a tripartite situation. This wasn't what the Sacred Lord wanted to see, but he was powerless to stop it. Now, he really regretted it. He shouldn't have thought of invading the Sword Spirit Boundary when he discovered it. Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets.
