Lu Gaotian's goal is to achieve maximum results with minimum casualties.
The purpose of concentrating the main force to break through a second-level formation is to intimidate the opponent, to encircle three formations, to give the opponent hope of escape, and to weaken the opponent's morale.
After their opponents fled in panic, they chased and killed them. They could exchange minimal casualties for great results.
If we concentrate our efforts to destroy the small battleships of Canghaimen first and cut off the hope of the Canghaimen monks to escape, it will definitely lead to a bloody battle.
Even if they obtain Chi Yan Island, they will pay an extremely heavy price.
"Changqing, it's almost time, we should withdraw."
Wu Xuansong repelled an enemy foundation builder and sent an emergency message.
"Xuansong, Yuzhou, you go first to protect the clansmen, I will buy you time."
Ximen Changqing has the means to save his life and is in no hurry to evacuate.
"Evergreen, take care."
The two were moved for a while, but there were clansmen behind them who needed protection, so they had no choice but to evacuate first to protect the clansmen who were being hunted.
After the two men evacuated, three Tianwumen built a foundation and killed Ximen Changqing.
"Golden Light Brick, go."
Dazzling golden light flashed, and the palm-sized golden bricks instantly turned into huge bricks ten feet long, falling from the top of Ximen Changqing's head.
A seventh-level Foundation Establishment monk showed a trace of disdain on his lips. This was his top-grade spiritual weapon that had killed many hostile Foundation Establishments.
He believed that if this brick fell, the foundation-building monk on the opposite side would either die or be seriously injured.
The huge pressure made Ximen Changqing feel the pressure. The foundation-building monks on both sides also sacrificed their spiritual weapons to block his retreat.
"Golden Bell Technique."
He used the Golden Bell Technique to connect the golden light brick above his head.
"boom……"
At the moment when the giant brick collided with the golden bell, Ximen Changqing used the Earth Escape Technique and took advantage of the situation to escape underground.
"Hmph, that's all."
The monk on the seventh floor of the Tianwu Sect's Foundation Building smiled faintly. In his opinion, Ximen Changqing had been severely damaged by his gold brick, and he would not survive long after being smashed into the ground.
"Huh... so dangerous."
Ximen Changqing, who escaped underground, continued to wander underground. There were a large number of Tianwu Sect foundations on the island, so it was safer underground.
"Array light curtain, third-order low-grade diamond array, is this a damaged array eye next to it?"
After wandering ten miles underground, Ximen Changqing encountered the formation light curtain, which penetrated deep into the hard rock.
But one formation eye is damaged, which means that part of the underground formation is damaged. As long as you escape into the stone, you can enter the area protected by the formation.
"It is specifically protected by a third-level formation. There should be blazing iron veins inside."
Ximen Changqing quickly made a judgment and made a decision. The third-level mineral veins cannot be taken advantage of by Tianwumen.
"Xiao Jin, Xiao Yin, come out here."
A thought brought out the two little guys from Jiutian Space.
"You dig a hole from here, and the master will go inside."
"Yes, Master."
They started digging at the same time, digging very quickly, and it didn't take long for them to dig into the formation.
"Master, there are a lot of delicious food here."
Xiao Jin's eyes were shining, while Xiao Yin's face was confused.
Ximen Changqing followed the rock passage and entered the formation, and saw the blazing iron veins.
"As expected, it's blazing iron and black iron ore, which are actually associated veins."
After careful inspection, 80% of the micro-mineral veins were first-grade medium-grade black iron ore, and only 20% were blazing iron.
"No wonder Canghaimen is reluctant to mine. There isn't much blazing iron! Xiao Jin, mine all this blazing iron."
With an idea, Ximen Changqing released all five thousand petrified golden ants in the space and let them mine blazing iron.
"Xiao Yin, work, boys, work."
While Xiao Jin was commanding, he sent out streaks of golden light, directly chopping the hard blazing iron. After one golden light passed, a large piece of blazing iron fell off.
Devouring gold ants are natural miners, and Xiao Jin's golden light technique is the nemesis of ores.
At this mining rate, it won't be long before all the blazing iron here is mined.
On the north side of Chiyan Island, the disciples of Canghai Sect fled into the small battleship in panic, and some disciples from the affiliated families also fled in.
The unlucky Canghai sect disciples and many monks from the affiliated families were entangled by the pursuing Tianwu sect monks and fell into the battle.
On the deck, Wu Xuansong and Pan Yuzhou both had sad faces. Their two qi-training monks had lost 30%, which was a considerable loss.
If Ximen Changqing hadn't warned them in advance, at least half of their two qi-training monks would have lost, and none of the affiliated families who evacuated at the end had escaped.
"Why hasn't Changqing come over yet?"
Pan Yuzhou looked worried.
"Stop talking, Changqing will be fine, he can escape from the earth."
Wu Xuansong remembered the time at Baihu Mountain, when Ximen Changqing escaped into the ground in front of him.
"It's too late, let's sail."
A monk who was in the late stage of Canghai Sect's foundation building gave the order with a sad look on his face.
In the distance, there are many monks from affiliated families arriving, but they cannot wait any longer to avoid being entangled themselves.
The elders of the sect have not come to rescue for a long time. They must be restrained by the elders of the other party. They can only evacuate as soon as possible.
"Hahaha! Canghaimen is vulnerable."
Lu Gaotian laughed excitedly, how could he not be happy when he saw his men chasing and killing the Canghaimen monks.
In this battle, they suffered slight losses, while the other side suffered heavy losses. Chiyan Island was also captured. This was a brilliant victory. As a commander, he had the right to be proud.
"Elder, next to it is the Blazing Iron Ore Vein, which is protected by a third-level formation."
When Lu Gaotian heard this, he frowned and said loudly: "Catch a few alive, maybe they know how to open the formation."
The formation-breaking beads in his hand have been used up. It is not easy to break the third-order formation. He places his hope on the Canghaimen monks.
"Elder, we have arrested dozens of people. They are all Qi Practitioners. Most of them are from affiliated families. They don't know how to open the formation."
"It's really troublesome. We have to do it ourselves."
Lu Gaotian's eyes flashed with irritation, and he led a group of Tianwu Sect foundation builders to the formation light curtain.
"Everybody come together and smash it."
Lu Gaotian sacrificed the best spiritual weapon and took action together with his subordinate Zhu Ji.
"boom……"
There was a huge vibration from the array light curtain, but it was not damaged.
"If you come again, you must smash it open."
Although the third-level formation is powerful, if no one is in charge of the third-level formation, as long as the bombardment continues, it will be blasted away sooner or later.
Such a huge movement naturally alarmed Ximen Changqing inside. He knew that it was Tianwu Sect's foundation building that was breaking the formation.
"It seems that Tianwu Sect has no formation-breaking beads."
He smiled slightly and found the formation disk in a huge cave.
After sitting down cross-legged, Ximen Changqing injected abundant real energy into the array to increase the defensive power of the array.
Xiao Jin and the others are mining blazing iron, and he will not let Tianwu Sect Foundation Builder enter easily.
Nearly fifty foundation builders from Tianwu Sect kept bombarding the formation light curtain for six hours. Everyone looked pale, but the formation light curtain did not move at all.
"Impossible, there must be someone in charge of this formation."
Lu Gaotian's aura was gray and his eyes were full of doubt.
