"Elder Nangong, I've been waiting for a long time. Long time no see." Zhang Xiaosheng greeted Nangong with a smile.
Previously, Zhang Xiaosheng found a place to absorb three drops of ternary heavy water to increase the spiritual root compatibility to 42%, so he was delayed for half a day. When he arrived at the agreed place, he found that Nangong was already waiting there.
"I've met Sect Master Zhang. I came two days early and was afraid of any delays on the way." Nangong said politely.
Nangong has not seen Zhang Xiaosheng since the Bihai Chaosheng Sect's exchange conference. Although he occasionally heard some news about Zhang Xiaosheng from Yao Puzi or Yao Fu when he came to Yaowang Valley before, Nangong still couldn't believe it after seeing him. Zhang Xiaosheng's current state.
He could still remember that when he took the boy in the Golden Core stage to Lingming Jiao Pond and passed Tiandao City, because the Golden Core stage boy could not fly near Tiandao City, even if he was led by an elder, they After a long detour, Zhang Xiaosheng said something at that time: I will come to Tiandao City myself.
Unexpectedly, in just a few years, Zhang Xiaosheng's realm would not only allow him to fly freely in Tiandao City, but if a Tiandao City conference was held, the leader of the Five Elements Sect would also have a place!
"How come the elder is so popular? I still remember that a few years ago, the elder personally escorted me for a while." Zhang Xiaosheng noticed Nangong's politeness and scolded slightly.
"In just a few years, Sect Leader Zhang has grown to such an extent, which I would never have dared to think about at that time." Nangong really sighed. Tianji Pavilion majored in the method of Tianji, and he could naturally feel that there were enough people around him. Eight peak cultivators were hiding in secret, six of them were monsters, and two were actually human cultivators. I really don’t know where this kid got them from.
"Without the support of the Pavilion Master back then, I'm afraid I would still be mining in Tianji Pavilion today. In addition, the elder fought desperately to save me in the Bihai Chaosheng Sect. This kind of kindness will never be forgotten by the little saint, so I still hope that the elder will call me by my name. But, the sect master is really too ignorant."
Seeing the expression in Zhang Xiaosheng's eyes, Nangong was quite moved. It was rare for a young man with such talent and strength to be not arrogant, but also polite and grateful, so he said:
"That's fine, it's my fault, but Xiao Sheng, you are the head of a sect. It's always not good to call you by your first name in front of your nobles."
Zhang Xiaosheng smiled slightly, stopped worrying about this topic, and asked instead:
"How are you doing, Master?"
"Everything is fine, Pavilion Master. It's just that the Wandan Pavilion is moving frequently, and the Pavilion Master has to sit in the battle in person. In fact, he hasn't seen you for a long time and really wants to come and see you."
"Well, what happened here is that I will definitely go visit the Pavilion Master." Zhang Xiaosheng felt warm in his heart and paused before saying:
"What are the actions of Wandan Pavilion?"
"It started a year ago. Wandan Pavilion first arrested a lot of spies that we had placed within their sect, greatly reducing the scope and frequency of the spies' activities. In this way, most of the things within their scope of strength were cut off. , even the information conveyed by the investigation is mostly out of date.”
"Later on, some monks from the late Nascent Soul stage were often sent out to wander around the boundaries of Tianji Pavilion, deliberately making some noise and then leaving. It was difficult to chase them, but if they didn't chase them, they would linger and not leave. It was really shameless, although There has always been loud thunder but little rain, but the Pavilion Master still ordered to be more vigilant, so many people outside have been mobilized back."
"Yes, they are probably testing your defensive strength." Zhang Xiaosheng nodded slightly. This Wandan Pavilion is not simple.
"Defense... tension?" Nangong was confused.
"Oh, it's your response speed and method to such emergencies, such as the invasion of high-end monks, such as the eighth-level Nascent Soul monks causing trouble, what level of people will you send, how many people will you send, and how long will it take to arrive at the incident location? Wait for a series of things, and after more testing, you can naturally summarize the general rules, and also deliberately lower your defensive psychology through harassment again and again."
"Ah, it's been more than a year. Could it be that they have mastered all the secrets in the pavilion?" Nangong was shocked.
"That's not the case. I think the Pavilion Master must have seen through it, so you must not relax. At the same time, you will continue to draw people from outside to join the defense system. This can also interfere with the experience they gained before."
"Well, the master of the pavilion is wise." Nangong, like Luo Xuan of the Five Elements Sect, is a typical internal affairs talent. Let them manage the sect's trivial matters in an absolutely orderly manner, but if they are plotting against the enemy, their strength will be greatly reduced, because it is not that area at all. material.
"Well, even though we knew their purpose, Tianji Pavilion was still restrained. If our sect's spies hadn't accidentally discovered the incident in Yaowang Valley a few months before the incident, I'm afraid that Yaowang Valley would have really It’s dangerous, after all, just a few months is really not worth mentioning for us in retreat now.”
"The Pavilion Master said that you are a man of great luck, so that must be true." Nangong laughed, suddenly seemed to feel something, changed the subject, and said: "But why hasn't this old boy Medicine Master come? It seems that it's not them. The same thing."
"Nangong, you old boy, you sensed my arrival, so you said that on purpose." The medicine master's voice came, and then his body appeared in front of the two of them, and he first bowed his hand to Zhang Xiaosheng.
Zhang Xiaosheng returned the gift, and the medicine master continued:
"You know how to block the secrets of heaven, so you can fly over openly. In order to avoid being discovered, I can only make a big circle. Besides, I am not late at this time."
"Anyway, I've come here from Tianji Pavilion. Sect Leader Zhang also arrived early. Yaowang Valley is just around the corner, but you were the last to arrive."
"Haha." Zhang Xiaosheng found it quite interesting when he saw the two of them bickering, so he couldn't help but joked:
"As we all know, the closer you get to your wish, the later it comes!"
Nangong and the medicine man knew that he was joking, so they couldn't help laughing. After thinking about it for a moment, they realized that this sentence seemed to be a joke, but it seemed quite reasonable. After all, it was the medicine man who reacted faster and praised:
"Sect Master Zhang is so insightful into people's hearts at such a young age, I admire him."
Nangong also reacted, right? People who are close to each other often wait until the last moment to go out, but because of this they often miss things, while those who are far away must have made arrangements early, so naturally they will not be late.
Zhang Xiaosheng just remembered that when he was working in his previous life, he often rented a house very close to the company but was often late. However, when he lived far away, he always arrived very early. He didn't expect that his casual words would surprise these two old men. They couldn't help but He smiled bitterly and didn't explain.
The three of them exchanged some pleasantries before getting down to the topic:
"When I came over, I found that there is a post three miles away from Yaowang Valley and a sentry post five miles away. Every thousand miles there is an early Yuanying monk, every ten thousand miles there is a mid-stage Yuanying monk, and every one hundred thousand miles there is one In the late Nascent Soul stage, along the way, I met more than thirty monks in the late Nascent Soul stage."
"It's normal to gather the power of the seven sects." Because he knew the situation of the Chongshui Sect relatively well, Zhang Xiaosheng had already judged the approximate level distribution of the enemies. The more than 30 Nascent Souls in the later stage were not all.
The medicine man said angrily:
"Hmph, they regard us as Yaowang Valley as a soft persimmon. This time, even if our vitality is severely damaged, we have to hold them back."
Hearing this, Zhang Xiaosheng shook his head and said:
"Having said that, things can't be done like this. Not to mention that we are at a disadvantage in terms of strength. Even if we are evenly matched, we cannot use this lose-lose style of play. You must know that our opponent is Wandan Pavilion. These seven sects are certainly powerful. But they are nothing more than cannon fodder.”
"Sect Master Zhang must have had a clever plan when he invited us here. Before leaving, the Pavilion Master ordered everything to be at the disposal of Sect Master Zhang." Nangong said solemnly.
"I can't speak of a clever idea, but I do have some ideas that can be tried."
"Please enlighten me," the medicine man said quickly.
"But Elder Nangong does not need to stay here. Not only that, Tianji Pavilion cannot participate in this battle."
"Ah?" Not only the medicine man was surprised, but Nangong couldn't understand. He came here with the intention of fighting hard, and the Tianji Pavilion also made arrangements. He could gather several people just after he sent the message back. Ten Yuanying monks came to help, and there were as many as ten in the later period.
"As I said before, our biggest enemy is Wandan Pavilion. However, we have no definite information about where this reversal formation Wandan Pavilion came from, so we have to beware of the force that provides the formation. And Wandan Pavilion We started to paralyze Tianji Pavilion early. If Yaowang Valley is attacked without your knowledge, what will be Tianji Pavilion’s first reaction?”
"Coming to help?"
"That's right, spreading your strength around, whether it's to encircle the spot to bring reinforcements or to go straight to Huanglong, can achieve miraculous results. Furthermore, with Wandan Pavilion acting so strangely, who can guarantee that Yaowang Valley is not a bait, and the real target is you Tianji Pavilion?"
"Such a big movement here, such a price..." Nangong seemed a little unbelievable that Wandan Pavilion could do such a big thing.
"But what if their goal is achieved? Thinking about the benefits of destroying Tianji Pavilion, are the costs still so high?" Zhang Xiaosheng narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "What's more, if they are well prepared, they can completely Kill the rabbit and solve it all at once."
Nangong and Yao Fu both nodded silently. If the Five Elements Sect hadn't discovered the secret this time and set up this reversal formation, Yao Wang Valley might have been wiped out directly.
"So, Tianji Pavilion not only cannot come to participate in the battle, but also has to greatly attract the attention of Wandan Pavilion on the other side, making them unable to fully support the seven sects here. After all, the target of Yaowang Valley is big enough. If they can't lose It is very possible that Tianji Pavilion will take the bait and use all its strength to deal with Yaowang Valley."
"This is a conspiracy. It seems to attack two, but you can attack them all or focus on one. The initiative is completely in their hands."
"Yang conspiracy is out of the question. As long as Tianji Pavilion can contain Wandan Pavilion and prevent them from making rash moves, the seven sects here will be much easier to handle."
"Please make it clear, Sect Master Zhang." Nangong was sincere.
"Wandan Pavilion also has many spies stationed within Tianji Pavilion, right?" Zhang Xiaosheng asked with a mysterious smile.
"Of course there are quite a few, and we have mastered most of them, but the Pavilion Master has never ordered their removal."
"Well, there is no threat to the spies whose identities are known, and they can also be used to send some false information back to disrupt the enemy's sight."
"Sect Master Zhang, do you mean to pass on some false information to them?" Nangong seemed to have a clear understanding.
"No, I want to kill them all this time!"
"ah?"
"If you just pass some false information, Wandan Pavilion may believe it, but they will definitely find ways to check whether the information is true or false. If unfortunately it is screened by them, it will be self-defeating. After all, you will definitely not be able to control all the spies."
"But if they are all killed, those well-hidden spies will fall into silence. After all, their first priority is to lurk safely. There is no need for them to expose matters that do not involve the life and death of Wandan Pavilion. And Akari's spies have all been killed. After finding out, Wandan Pavilion lost all information about Tianji Pavilion."
"Only by keeping them in the dark can we make them more fearful. The tiger behind them has disappeared. Do they still dare to let go and deal with the enemy in front of them?"
After hearing this, Nangong and Yao Fu really understood.
"So what Tianji Pavilion has to do is to make Wandan Pavilion not know what you are going to do. Didn't they send people to harass you? You can do it too. The more obvious it is, the more they will think that you are secretly planning a big move, and they will not dare to act rashly. "
"It's false and true, this plan is so clever!"
"More than that, Tianji Pavilion also needs to find ways to find out about the forces that cooperate with Wandan Pavilion to see who provided the reverse formation diagram. The task is no easier than fighting here."
"I understand, I will go back to make arrangements later."
"Yes." Zhang Xiaosheng nodded, then looked at the medicine man and said:
"As for our side...my idea is to trade space for time."
Um? What's the alternative?
Before the medicine man could ask questions, Zhang Xiaosheng continued:
"I wonder how powerful Yaowanggu Nascent Soul is?"
"Hmm..." The medicine master pondered for a moment and replied: "There are 150 Yuanying monks in total, but less than half of them specialize in cultivating elixirs and refining elixirs, and are not good at fighting at all, so there are only more than 90 people who can actually fight. Among them, there are fewer people in the early stage, with only a dozen or so people, the largest number in the mid-term, with nearly sixty people, seventeen in the later stage, and five at the peak!"
Zhang Xiaosheng nodded silently, this was not much different from what he estimated, and continued to ask:
"In addition to you, the Valley Master and the elder, who are the other five peaks?"
"There are also three Supreme Elders who have long since stopped caring about world affairs because their life expectancy is approaching. However, this is a time when the sect's life and death are at stake. They will inevitably go out to meet the enemy."
"On the Five Elements Sect, there are ten peak people who can do it. I am the only one in the late stage, and there are only two people in the mid-term. However, I am planning to transfer some people from the sect. High-end battles cannot be participated. In the Golden Core stage and the early stage of Nascent Soul, The battle is not hindered, and it can also give them more experience."
"If this is the case, then we can completely suppress the seven sects." The medicine master let out a long sigh of relief.
"No, it's far from enough." Zhang Xiaosheng said lightly.
