Star Trace Gate

Chapter 677 Another Great Dynasty Plan

The daytime treasure hunt was over, and both the attacking and defending sides returned to the base camp.

In the bunker, in the stone chamber reserved for Wang Changfeng, Xu Qingzhao, Lu Ji, Zhang Linghuo, Long Shou, A Pu, Tang Feng, and a group of super-powerful people were gathered together to discuss today's affairs.

Beside the stone table, the mild-tempered Lu Ji poured himself tea slowly and leisurely, without any hurry or haste.

Tang Feng was getting anxious: "Brother Lu Ji, you're drinking from head to toe, lubricating the money-making tunnel here? Can you please tell me quickly, what did you see at the bottom of the pond today?"

Lu Ji's master is the fourth god of China. He is the strongest of the Shousui people of the same generation as Dean Zhao Baicheng, Lin Xiang and others. That's why Lu Ji calls Ren Ye, Tang Feng and others "little junior brothers". They are also the leaders of the second generation of Shousui disciples.

He had heard the story of the little singer, and also knew that this junior fellow was somewhat contradictory in terms of gender. So when he faced Tang Feng's rude remarks, he was full of tolerance in his heart: "Today I looked at the blessed land at the bottom of the pond, and concluded that there was one good news and one bad news."

"Please tell me quickly." Xu Qingzhao asked urgently.

"The good news is that Junior Brother Renhuang's pass did not return, which means he is not dead; and the opponent's four pass returned, so he should have no rivals in this forbidden tomb. With Junior Brother's physique and talent, if no one is chasing him, even without powerful elixirs, he should be able to recover in no time." Lu Ji expressed his judgment: "I infer that he is safe for the time being."

Everyone had guessed and agreed with this speculation, so they all nodded in agreement.

"What's the bad news?" Tang Feng asked again.

"The bad news is that although I have found the connection between this forbidden area and the bottom of the pool, I am helpless." Lu Ji thought for a moment and added: "We can't get in there, and we can't rescue Junior Brother Renhuang."

"Why?!"

The dragon head asked.

"In that forbidden area, there should be a formation that is far superior to ours, and it is most likely a place of no rank. Although I have explored the entrance point, which is the top of the God Seat Mountain, I cannot lead everyone to break the formation and force their way in."

"...!"

Wang Changfeng thought about it carefully: "If we recruit some more super-class magical powers and super-class magic weapons, and gather the strength of more than a hundred people, can we forcibly break the formation here?"

Lu Ji shook his head slightly and said softly, "No. The bottom of the pond outside this forbidden area is a secret realm for third-grade tasks. All of our magical powers are suppressed by the Heavenly Dao, and the formation is at the top of the God Seat Mountain. It is equivalent to using the power of the third grade to bombard a formation that is several grades higher than us, so relying on numbers alone is useless."

When everyone heard this, they all fell silent with serious expressions.

Lu Ji suddenly had an idea and added, "Let me give you a very appropriate analogy. All of us put together are like my junior brother Tang Feng's small steel needle, weak, thin, and less than half a finger long; and the great formation on the top of the God's Throne Mountain is like the Black Forest Cave of the old woman in the defending camp today... dark, narrow, and bottomless. How can this steel needle break the barrier of the cave? The obvious answer... is that no matter how hard you try, you can't do it."

After hearing this metaphor, everyone looked up in astonishment. They seemed to be unable to believe that such words could be said by a handsome man who looked like a scholar.

Tang Feng was stunned for a moment, then suddenly broke through and said: "You saw it, you saw it, you saw it...?!"

"Don't use analogies so easily next time..." A Pu advised, "I can already imagine the pictures after listening to them."

After Lu Ji's verbal revenge was successful, he felt relieved.

Everyone looked at each other. Although they felt that this person's metaphor was very dirty, it was very vivid. The formation was inside the peak, but the attackers were all outside the peak. No matter how hard they tried, they could only attack with the third-grade magical power... It really felt like a small steel needle accidentally entering a mine tunnel.

"But... I don't think you need to worry too much." Lu Ji took a sip of tea and added softly, "You told me before that the reason why this junior brother was able to enter that place was mainly due to luck. So, I think if he can recover to his peak state, he will definitely be able to find a way out. After all, there are no opponents there, and there are two of them. Even if they don't have the token, they can attack from the inside out and lock the center of the formation. The possibility of success will be much greater."

"Moreover, from what I've seen, although that forbidden area is most likely a large tomb, it doesn't look very ominous. It should be a treasure cave with great blessings." He added softly, "The scenery inside should also be full of vitality, just like a paradise. If there are no ominous creatures or living people in it, then they should not be in any danger. We just need to wait."

After hearing this, Xu Qingzhao, Longshou, Tang Feng, and A Pu all breathed a sigh of relief. At least now they knew that King Huai was still alive, and his opponents were all dead, so after he recovered, he shouldn't be trapped for too long. After all, the token of entry and the purple luck were still there.

Wang Changfeng pondered for a while, and suddenly asked: "Are you sure that the forbidden area is a big tomb?"

Lu Ji was slightly stunned, and said contemptuously: "If you can't even see this little trick, then how can you still be called Dragon Vein Heavenly Master?!"

When Wang Changfeng heard his answer, the big rock that had been hanging in his heart finally fell to the ground.

In this way, everyone gathered in the stone room and discussed for more than half an hour before finally determining the strategy and tactics for the next period of time. They decided that before Ren escaped, they should try their best to avoid fighting and make mistakes, relying only on the daytime treasure hunting link to secretly accumulate magic weapons and materials for attacking Gutan Sect in order to develop slowly.

If during this period, Ren Ye suddenly rushes out, and the enemy's movements are obvious and they want to kill Ren Ye, then all members will rush to the bottom of the pool and fight with the enemy with all their might in order to achieve the goal of bringing back Ren Ye and Master Chu.

The discussion ended and everyone left one by one.

On the way back to the stone house, Tang Feng couldn't help but be curious, so he asked Lu Ji: "How did you know?"

"Know what?" Lu Ji was a little confused by the question.

"It's...it's about the little steel needle! I didn't even take off my pants, how did you see through it at a glance?" Tang Feng's pretty face blushed, and she lowered her head to look at her pigeon-toed toes.

Lu Ji blinked his eyes and said something nonsense: "Your Yang energy is weak between your legs, I can tell at a glance."

"Fuck, you can even figure this out?!" Tang Feng was shocked: "Then do you have a way to crack it?"

"Yes, change the Feng Shui of your place..."

"Fuck, this can be changed?" Tang Feng became interested: "I'll stay at your place tonight. You must help me change it no matter what. I promise not to move a muscle...!"

……

Late at night, Wang Changfeng left again with the order in his hand.

Today, he had three very important gains. First, Ren Ye and Master Chu were safe for the time being. Second, the chaos master on the defending side said that the Wallfacers were fighting for the Gutan Sect's star gate at such a high cost in order to pave the way for a super plot-based errand that could affect an entire area of ​​the migration site. This errand might be called "Disaster" and was most likely related to the Guide's rules.

The third, and most important point... is that, the mysterious place in the pond must be a big tomb, and this big tomb is what the Wanxiang Sect is looking for... and it is also the reason why they are fighting so hard.

However, he couldn't tell anyone about this third point, at least not now.

With something on his mind, Wang Changfeng came to the teahouse where he had met Minister Wen last time. After the two sides communicated for nearly an hour, they exchanged passes and left.

Not long after, Minister Wen returned to Suzaku City, which had been plunged into eternal night, and met Prime Minister Lin in the Wangyue Pavilion.

He reported everything that happened in the secret realm of Gutan Sect truthfully, and stated his own inference: "Lü Ji's judgment should not be wrong. Although Ren Ye is currently trapped in the big tomb, his life should not be in danger."

Lin Xiang, dressed in red, stood with his hands behind his back and said, "I know about this matter. I have also informed Wanxiang Sect about the changes in the Gutan Sect's secret realm and asked them to communicate with us once a day. I also told Ren Ye's children not to mess around and just wait for my disciple to come up with a solution."

"Yes, Lin Xiang."

"Okay, go and select the super-quality people who will enter tomorrow according to the number of pass numbers." After a pause, Prime Minister Lin said, "By the way, tell the Minister of War Ruan Yin to bring the list of personnel below the fifth rank in the relocation area to see me."

"Yes."

After Minister Wen bowed solemnly, he walked away and disappeared into the Moon-Watching Pavilion.

Half an hour later, Prime Minister Lin was sitting alone on the top floor of the Moon-Watching Pavilion, looking down at the desk, carefully looking at the personnel list sent by Lord Ruan.

At first glance from a distance, he has white hair, wrinkles all over his face, and is filled with exhaustion, just like a lonely old man carrying countless mountains on his shoulders; but if you look closely, you will find that as long as he sits in the Moon-Watching Pavilion, it seems as if the night sky of the entire Suzaku City begins to brighten up, with stars twinkling; as if the storms in the entire migration area are all under his control.

This is why no matter what difficulties Ren encountered, as long as he could see his master, he would feel at ease instantly. This also applies to all the people who keep watch over the New Year, even including Zhao Baicheng and other people in white.

The migration site has been established for quite some time, with tens of thousands of people coming here to travel, just like tens of thousands of silk threads that can continuously transmit back all the changes there.

According to the reports of the Watchmen in the past month, the Order camp is at a disadvantage in various confrontation star gates in the migration area; but this is not a problem of the Watchmen, but a problem of the power composition of the Order camp.

There are countless alien races, old people from migrating areas, small sects in various secret realms, idle organizations, large sects, and various imperial forces, etc., and most of these forces are fighting on their own, trying to seize "their own" opportunities. It is very difficult to stick them together.

People’s hearts are complicated, and it’s hard to distinguish interests and opportunities.

But the Chaos camp is much stronger than the Order camp in this respect.

why?

To put it bluntly, this series of means without rules and bottom lines, such as murder, robbery, raping women, blocking the road to seize treasures, extracting souls and refining corpses, are all the common language of human nature. If they are not bound by any rules, there is no threshold for close unity.

You meet an evil-type supernatural being on the street, and go up to him and ask, "Brother, do you want to go kill or rob? The seven of us can attack one person by surprise." This may seem absurd, but there is a high probability that you will get a response.

Even if the person asking the question is trying to rob the thieves, the person being asked is also looking for an opportunity to sneak attack. They have no psychological bottom line at all, and do whatever they want. They believe that the strong are respected, and the world's treasures belong to the capable. Therefore, this is the reason why the wall-facing people can rise so quickly.

Not all of them came from the place where the ancient tree was, but after they set up their homes in the migration area, they recruited a large group of more talented magical masters, and relied on their background to give them powerful secrets and magic weapons, in an attempt to reopen "the bridge".

Although Ren Ye was temporarily trapped, Lin Xiang was not in a hurry because he was the only one who knew many things about the other party.

He knew that when Ren Ye was on the verge of death, he used the Finger of Samsara, and the existence of the Lotus Lamp of Samsara and the ghost inside it was the beginning of the relationship between Mu Mu and Ren Ye. There was a reason why the lamp stayed on Ren Ye...
