The only way

Chapter 898 An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth

Although Fu Xiao's words were deep, they were powerful and broke the silence in the hall.

Immediately afterwards, many demon cultivators who had originally stood with their heads down and dared not speak began to display their bravery.

They all spoke up and wanted to pick up their guns and swords immediately to fight to the death with the cunning East Land monks, vowing to make up for all the losses they had suffered.

The hall was suddenly filled with noise like the chirping of summer insects.

"That's enough! Shut up, everyone!"

On the seven seats for elders at the top, a demon who was nine feet tall, with dark skin, bulging muscles and as big as a small mountain stomped his feet suddenly, and the whole hall shook twice.

The sound is like a bell and the force is like thunder.

The noisy sounds in the hall suddenly quieted down.

"Xiao Qi, your voice is quite loud."

Beside the Fourth Elder, a charming woman in a black gauze dress was leaning on a chair with a snake-like figure, soft and boneless. The black magic pattern at the corner of her eye was shaped like a flapping butterfly, which made her slightly slanted eyebrows look even more charming.

As soon as this woman opened her mouth, the demon cultivators below lowered their heads even lower, and there was even fear in their eyes.

Even the big Seventh Elder, who was called Little Seven, didn't show any temper at all. He just snorted and kept silent.

Speaking of which, apart from the Great Elder who is in charge of Fumo City, the elder who came to Donglu with the highest ranking is the Second Elder, the woman in the black dress and gauze.

However, these two elders are good at using poisons and their methods are treacherous and unpredictable. In terms of their methods and strength, they are among the top three among these elders, but in terms of wisdom, they are not as good as the fourth elder.

Therefore, the one who makes the decision is the Fourth Elder.

The fourth elder put down the battle report in his hand, his face calm as water.

As early as when the demon army just invaded, seeing the ambush outside the teleportation array, nine out of ten cities were empty, and war fortresses were being built, the Fourth Elder had already guessed that Dong Lu might have already known what the demons were planning.

I just don't know whether it is the intervention of Buddhism or the vigilance of Donglu, or is there a spy among the demon clan?

The current thunderous counterattack was somewhat beyond the expectations of the Fourth Elder.

He had never dealt with monks from East Continent, but he knew a thing or two about them.

Although the human race in East Land is powerful, it has no tendency to unify. The five major immortal sects are united but different, and each major force is trying to protect itself.

When encountering the demons, he would focus on defense, and the fact was just as he expected.

Although those cities are magnificent, they are actually in a defensive state. Most of the forces in East Continent are also guarding their gates and there is no sign of full alliance.

Under such circumstances, it is not difficult for the demons to divide their forces and defeat them one by one.

However, the human race in East Land suddenly united and launched a thunderous counterattack to strangle a wave of demons. As a result, the demons' original numerical advantage and the strategy of dividing their forces had to be declared collapsed.

Now, the demons, who are at a disadvantage, need to make a breakthrough.

If one wants to break through, the first thing they have to face is the chain of cities that Donglu has spent several years and countless manpower and material resources to build.

"Mr. Yu, do you have any solution?" The fourth elder tilted his head and asked in a calm voice.

The Elder Yu mentioned by the Fourth Elder is the Third Elder of the Elder Hall, who is famous in the Western Land for his mastery of formations.

When it comes to mastering formations, the Third Elder claims to be the best in the Western Continent.

The teleportation array from the West Land to the East Land was restored and improved by him through ancient books.

As soon as he arrived in the East Land, he saw the East Land formations for the first time, as if he had encountered something new. These days, he has been studying the East Land formations, especially the towering formations set up by the five states of the East Land. The third elder has a long gray beard, which is braided into a long braid. He is half bent over like an old man in his seventies.

But his eyes were strangely pale yellow, with pupils standing upright like snake pupils.

Hearing this, he pulled at his braided beard, his snake-like eyes narrowed slightly, and his voice was sticky and sinister, "This formation is mutually supportive, and each city is an eye of the formation. If you want to break the formation, you need to attack all the cities at the same time."

The Third Elder's analysis made all the demons present look unhappy, but the Fourth Elder remained calm and analyzed the plans of the Eastern Land cultivators calmly and indifferently.

"In this way, our demon army will be forced to split up, while the East Continent cultivators can hold the formation firmly and wait for the enemy to tire themselves out. They can also use the formation as a support to keep our demon army out, making it difficult for them to truly invade the heart of East Continent."

In just a few words, the Fourth Elder saw the chess game of Donglu Xianmen clearly.

“Hehe, although this formation is tricky, I am no pushover. If you think you can stump me with the formation, you are dreaming!”

The third elder's gray beard trembled as he spoke, and his light yellow snake pupils emitted an eerie light.

"This formation is a success or failure of one body!"

After saying this, the Third Elder waved his sleeves and extended his hand. A light yellow magic light flashed, and a simple map of East Land appeared in the hall.

With ten fingers tapping, dozens of light beams lit up on the map, dazzling.

Anyone with a little vision can easily tell that these light pillars are the location of the large formation set up by the Donglu Immortal Sect.

Each beam of light is a city and the center of the formation.

Several of the light beams were connected, forming five different yet similar formations in the void.

"Like the circle of a mirror, like the boundary of a lake, it takes a hundred times the strength to split it and strike it, but only ten times the strength to break through it with a single point!"

As he spoke, his eyes flashed like lightning and his fingertips swept across the void. Five of the dozens of light beams in the five large formations turned bright red like blood.

"Even if they are all the cores of the formation, they are also divided into strong and weak, order, position, and attributes. These five cities are the weakest cores of the five formations that I have deduced."

"As long as you take down these five places and give me some time, I will have the means to completely break these formations! Make it impossible for these formations to function and connect!"

The third elder looked frail and lonely, but his words were full of heroism, and his snake eyes were filled with confidence.

As for what means he could use to deal with Dong Lu's large formation that could both attack and defend, the Third Elder naturally would not say it.

None of the four elders and the demons present had any doubts.

Because the entire demon clan knows that the third elder of the Elder Hall of Fumo City is one of the best formation masters in the entire demon clan.

  When it comes to formations, you can’t go wrong by listening to the Third Elder!

The Fourth Elder knew clearly that the Third Elder was cunning and would not do anything without certainty. Since he dared to say it, he must be sure.

"The monks from the East Continent must be immersed in their victory and busy cleaning up the battlefield. They think that our demon clan should retreat to the rear and wait for support from the West Continent before regrouping," the fourth elder said slowly, his words calmly revealing his strategic planning. "If it were an ordinary time, this would be the most normal way to use troops, but on the battlefield, we should take the enemy by surprise and attack them when they are unprepared, only then can we be invincible!"

"Since the East Continent human race dared to launch a surprise attack on our demon army, we demons will naturally retaliate in kind!"

"An eye for an eye!"

"Tit for tooth!"

"Show the people of Donglu a lesson!"

"Fight back!"
