"Now is indeed not the time for a decisive battle. However, the fact that the Evil Dao managed to pacify the rear so quickly is indeed beyond our expectations. The Old Man suggests that we send some high-level cultivators to the Evil Dao's rear to reduce the pressure on the front line." A tall and thin man with a high nose bridge suggested.
"No, this method won't work. We can send people to the rear to cause trouble, but the Evil Dao can also do the same. I don't agree with this suggestion." The bald man shook his head and rejected the suggestion.
It didn't matter how intense the battle at the front line was. His Qingyang Sect was located at the rear and wouldn't be affected much. However, if the Evil Dao sent people to attack the rear, it would be troublesome.
"Hmph, Daoist Liu, I think you are worried that your Qingyang Sect will suffer losses! The Evil Dao allied forces come from different sects. Their troops and resources have to be mobilized from the rear. However, it is different for us. Most of the Daoists here moved their sects to West Chu and brought their disciples and resources with them. If we send people to attack the Evil Dao's rear, they will definitely withdraw their troops and strengthen their defenses to reduce the pressure on the front line. If the Evil Dao attacks our rear, we won't be affected much. Anyway, most of our troops and resources are in the Demon-Killing City. As long as we strengthen our defenses, the Evil Dao won't succeed easily. "A beautiful middle-aged woman analyzed word by word.
"Hmph, it is easy for you to say that. Most of our high-level cultivators are gathered in the Demon-Killing City. There are not many high-level cultivators at the rear. It is the same for the Evil Dao. If we send people to attack their rear first, they will definitely take revenge. Who will bear the losses? If someone can bear the losses, I have no objections. "The bald man said coldly, his face full of displeasure.
"Daoist Liu, everyone wants to defeat the Evil Dao and take back their territory. If everyone is as selfish as you, I think it is only a matter of time before we are defeated by the Evil Dao. We might as well surrender earlier." Shangguan Yu sneered and said sarcastically.
"So be it. I have no objections. As long as it doesn't harm the interests of our Qingyang Sect, we can do whatever you want." The bald man's expression was extremely indifferent.
Zhou Wen frowned, waved his hand, and said, "Okay, stop talking. Fellow Daoist Shangguan, don't say such discouraging words like surrender. Fellow Daoist Liu, if we are defeated by Diabolism, I'm afraid your Qingyang Sect will not end well."
"Master Ku Sang is the leader of our righteous alliance. I think Master Ku Sang should make the decision on this matter!" Shangguan Yu's beautiful eyes turned and fell on Monk Ku Sang who was sitting on the main seat. Then, she said in a deep voice.
"That's right. Master Ku Sang will be in charge of this matter."
Everybody cast their eyes on Monk Ku Sang, who was sitting on the main seat, hoping that he could come up with a solution.
Seeing the crowd looking at him, Ku Sang frowned slightly. Previously, he was unwilling to make a move because he was worried about encountering such a situation.
Now, the righteous path was divided into two factions. The sect leaders who had moved to West Chu from other countries hoped to defeat the demonic path and counterattack. As for the sect leaders who were born in West Chu, they felt that if they could stop the demonic path and prevent the demonic path from invading their territory, that would be enough.
Since the beginning of the war, the two sides had quarreled more than a dozen times because of differences in opinion. The reasons of both sides seemed to be dignified and irrefutable. At this time, Ku Sang had to come out and make a decision.
Ku Sang was not interested in power struggles. If he helped Party A, he was bound to offend Party B. If he helped Party B, he would offend Party A. Although Ku Sang was a monk, he still understood this. He didn't want to offend anyone. He only hoped to stop the invasion of the demonic path and go back to the temple to recite scriptures.
"I don't have experience in this area. I don't know if we should send people to infiltrate the demonic path's rear. Fellow Daoist Zhou, what do you think?" Ku Sang said vaguely and then kicked the ball to Zhou Wen.
Zhou Wen thought for a while and said, "If we want to send people to infiltrate the demonic path's rear to cause trouble, we need at least a Yuanying cultivator to lead the team. Moreover, we need at least three Yuanying cultivators and a dozen Core Formation cultivators. If we don't have enough people, we won't be able to do much. The person leading the team must be a cultivator in the middle stage of Yuanying. May I ask which fellow daoist is willing to lead the team?"
"This …" Hearing this, everyone looked at each other. If it was a Core Formation cultivator, they might agree immediately. But since it concerned them, they weren't so decisive.
Although the demonic path's rear was empty, it was their territory after all. If they didn't cause much of a stir, it wouldn't be of much help. If they caused too much of a stir, it was hard to guarantee that the demonic path wouldn't organize people to encircle and annihilate them. Everyone present was smart. It was impossible for them to take the risk without great benefits.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, didn't you propose to send people to the demonic path's rear to cause trouble? You happen to be in the middle stage of Yuanying, so I'll trouble you to make a trip! I can send two Core Formation cultivators to follow you. "The bald man's eyes fell on the tall and thin man, and said with a faint smile.
"The Old Man has been enlightened recently and has shown signs of breaking through to the late stage of Yuanying. I'm afraid he can't do it." The tall and thin man frowned and found a dignified excuse to refuse.
"Mrs. Chen? Fairy Shangguan? "The bald man looked at Shangguan Yu and the middle-aged woman with an expression of watching a good show.
Shangguan Yu and the middle-aged woman were silent when they heard this.
Seeing this situation, the bald man showed a touch of ridicule at the corner of his mouth and said in his heart, "All talk but no action. Each of you is extremely hypocritical."
"Well, since no fellow daoist is going, I think we should put this matter aside for the time being. Let's think of other ways!" Zhou Wen changed his tone and changed the topic.
At this moment, a middle-aged man with a red face came outside the hall and said loudly, "Martial Uncle Zhou, seniors, the demonic path has sent someone to deliver a Sound-Transmitting Charm."
"Sound-Transmitting Charm? Quickly take it out. "Zhou Wen's eyes flashed with a touch of surprise and he urged.
The middle-aged man responded and quickly walked in. He took out a Sound-Transmitting Charm from his sleeve and handed it to Zhou Wen with both hands.
Zhou Wen didn't hesitate and crushed the Sound-Transmitting Charm. A man's deep voice suddenly sounded, "Fellow Daoist Ku Sang, Fellow Daoist Zhou, Old Man Mu Yunxuan, in today's battle, our casualties are not small. The Old Man proposes to change the battle from once every seven days to once every half a month. What do you think?"
Hearing this, everyone present showed a thoughtful expression.
The immortal cultivation sects that had migrated from other countries to West Chu were eager to defeat the demonic path and regain their territory. Every time there was a war, the cultivators from other countries would put in extra effort, hoping to regain their homeland. In the beginning, the low level cultivators of the righteous path were able to suppress the low level cultivators of the demonic path, but as the righteous path annihilated the rebellious forces in their territory, the freed up manpower was transferred to the front lines, causing the low level cultivators of the demonic path to suppress the low level cultivators of the righteous path. In today's battle, the heavy casualties of the low level cultivators of the righteous path was the best example.
Mu Yunxuan's proposal was exactly what they wanted. After prolonging the battle, they could transfer more manpower from the rear. However, this had a drawback, and that was that the demonic path's rear would become more and more consolidated, allowing the demonic path to transfer more manpower to the front lines.
This was a double-edged sword. If they agreed with Mu Yunxuan's proposal, the righteous path cultivators would have a chance to catch their breath, but they would be more passive in the future. If they didn't agree with Mu Yunxuan's proposal, the casualties would be even more severe.
"Old Man agrees with this proposal. I wonder what other fellow daoists think?" Zhou Wen's eyes flashed as he asked in a deep voice.
"I agree. Although the demonic path can mobilize more troops in this way, we can also make adjustments to better deal with the next war. Even if we lose, we will have a chance to catch our breath." Shangguan Yu pondered for a moment and nodded.
"I also agree. If the time is right, it won't be too late for us to change the time of the war. Otherwise, according to the current situation, we will have a war every seven days. In less than a year, I'm afraid there won't be many disciples left in our sect."
"Old Man also agrees. Now our losses are a little big, so we can take advantage of this opportunity to transfer manpower and resources from the rear."
"I also agree."
"I have no objection."
… …
Most of the people present expressed their agreement, but a small number of people neither agreed nor opposed.
"Master Ku Sang, most of the fellow daoists agree with this. What do you think …" Zhou Wen looked at Ku Sang and asked in a deep voice.
"According to our previous agreement, the minority obeys the majority. Since most of the fellow daoists agree, then let's do it! I will immediately reply to Fellow Daoist Mu. " After Ku Sang finished speaking, he took out a Sound-Transmitting Charm. After whispering a few words, he shook his wrist, and the Sound-Transmitting Charm flew out of his hand and fell into the middle-aged man's hand.
"Martial Nephew Chen, take Martial Nephew Liu and others to reply to the demonic path. Be careful." Zhou Wen told the middle-aged man.
The middle-aged man responded and walked out quickly.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, Master Ku Sang, is there anything else to discuss? If not, I will leave first. Our Qingyang Sect still has a lot of things to deal with! "The bald man said impatiently.
"I have nothing to say, but I don't know if Fellow Daoist Zhou has other arrangements." Ku Sang put his palms together and said calmly.
Zhou Wen shook his head and said, "No, you can leave now! Go back and take care of the wounded. "
Hearing this, the bald man immediately turned around, turned into a yellow light, and flew out of the meeting hall.
Seeing this, Shangguan Yu and a dozen other Yuanying cultivators left one after another, leaving only Zhou Wen, Ku Sang, and a dozen other Yuanying cultivators.
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, Liu Miao is too selfish. He only has the Qingyang Sect in his eyes. He doesn't put us in his eyes at all." The beautiful middle-aged woman frowned and said with a very unhappy expression.
"Yes! Fellow Daoist Liu won't be bribed by the demonic path, right? Every time we have a meeting, he will pester us endlessly and disturb our discussion. "The tall and thin man nodded in agreement. His words were full of dissatisfaction with Liu Miao of the Qingyang Sect.
"According to my understanding of Fellow Daoist Liu, he won't side with the demonic path. As for the others, it's hard to say. The reason why I proposed to have a mid-stage Yuanying cultivator lead the team was because I was worried that someone would be bribed by the demonic path. Don't forget, we also have people in the demonic path. If we can plant spies in the demonic path, the demonic path can also plant spies in our ranks. Sending people to attack the demonic path's rear is not something we can discuss. Otherwise, once spies find out, our people will be wiped out as soon as they step into the demonic path's territory." Zhou Wen said with some worry.
"Yes, I heard that when the four sects of the State of Qi led by the All Pleasure Sect invaded the State of Wu, the nine sects of the State of Wu sent two Yuanying cultivators to the State of Qi to cause trouble. In the end, one died and the other betrayed us. If you say that the demonic path didn't plant spies around us, I, Chen Li, would be the first to not believe it." The beautiful middle-aged woman slowly said with a firm tone.
"The demonic path must have planted spies around us. However, how does Fellow Daoist Zhou know that there aren't spies among the people present?" The tall and thin man's gaze turned and he asked in a deep voice.
Zhou Wen smiled slightly and said, "The sects of the Fellow Daoists present are powerful and they are also quite far from West Chu. How much can you benefit from siding with the demonic path? Unless the demonic path is willing to hand over most of the territory it has occupied to you, or if the demonic path has something that can allow you to advance to the late stage of Yuanying, would the demonic path be so kind? In any case, I don't believe it. I believe that none of the Fellow Daoists here believe in the demonic path. Therefore, I believe that none of the Fellow Daoists here will side with the demonic path. "
"There's no need to say such polite words. Fellow Daoist Zhou, are you really not considering sending people to the demonic path's rear to cause trouble? This method can indeed reduce the pressure on the front lines. As for the retaliation of the demonic path, as long as we strengthen our defenses, the losses shouldn't be too great. Or, the people we send can disguise themselves as demonic cultivators and divide them from the inside. "Chen Li frowned and suggested.
"That's right! The Old Man wholeheartedly agrees with Lady Chen's words. In fact, there's no need for a mid stage Yuanying cultivator to take action. Many early stage Yuanying cultivators can carry out this mission. "The tall and thin man nodded in agreement.
Zhou Wen chuckled mischievously and mysteriously said, "Hehe, I won't hide it from the Fellow Daoists here. I've long wanted to send people to attack the demonic path's rear, but now isn't the time. Either we don't do it, or we do it big time."
"Fellow Daoist Zhou, none of the Fellow Daoists here are outsiders, so why are you being so secretive? Is there something you can't say? You just said that we won't side with the demonic path cultivators, but now you're being so secretive. Do you suspect that we'll leak information to the demonic path? "Chen Li's expression was somewhat displeased.
"That's right! Fellow Daoist Zhou, if you suspect the Old Man, then there's no need for the Old Man to stay next time. "The tall and thin man said with a frown.
"That's right, Fellow Daoist Zhou. Since you trust us, then there's no need to be secretive. Are you suspecting us by doing this?"
Zhou Wen hesitated for a moment, then said, "Actually, this isn't a secret. Once we create three Yuanying cultivators, I'll send them to carry out this mission."
"What? Create three Yuanying cultivators? Yuanying cultivators can be created? "Chen Li's expression changed slightly as she exclaimed in shock.
Ku Sang's expression also changed when he heard this.
"That's right, we can do it. This is a secret technique of the Holy Ghost Sect, but it requires a large amount of rare resources to create it. To be honest, when the Demonic Dao invaded our country, the Holy Ghost Sect started the plan to create Nascent Soul Cultivators. It's just that we haven't been able to create three Nascent Soul Cultivators in a short period of time. Hehe, the last time the Holy Ghost Sect created a Nascent Soul Cultivator was over a thousand years ago." As he finished speaking, Zhou Wen's face revealed a hint of pride.
He wasn't lying. The Holy Ghost Sect did indeed have a secret technique that could create Yuanying cultivators. However, it required a large amount of precious resources. Furthermore, these Yuanying cultivators had a fatal flaw. Their cultivation wouldn't improve at all, and their lifespan would only be three months. In addition, it required three late-stage Core Formation cultivators to use this technique. Core Formation cultivators with weaker bodies wouldn't be able to withstand the pain of using this technique. If it weren't for these three flaws, the Holy Ghost Sect would have used this technique to dominate the Eastern Continent.
