Bringing The Farm To Live In Another World - Chapter 16196
Chapter 16194. Discussion
Although Bishop Liu was extremely shocked, he still had to get things done. However, a very real problem lay before him: what should he do next? Continue the attack? To be honest, he wasn’t confident that he could break through this large magic array with the people he had. Should he not attack? The enemy’s large magic array had already been activated. Even without anyone operating it, the Wanfa Divine Cult would know once it was activated. Even if they didn’t attack, they couldn’t hide it from him.
Thinking of this, Bishop Liu gritted his teeth and then turned to his men, saying, “Everyone, spread out and surround Qingfeng Mountain. Then, listen to my command, we will attack that large magic array together and break it.”
Everyone responded. Bishop Liu then took out a jade slip and used the communication array to send it to Tang Yi. He told Tang Yi about the situation and instructed him to immediately send someone to monitor Qingyu City to see if any Wanfa Divine Cult members would come to support Qingfeng Mountain.
Unbeknownst to Bishop Liu, Tang Yi was actually watching from nearby. He was somewhat uneasy and wanted to personally investigate to see how much power the Myriad Laws Sect had left in Qingfeng Mountain. He hadn’t expected the Myriad Laws Sect to pull such a stunt, setting up a large-scale magic array there.
Tang Yi and his companions would never have imagined that for the Blood Slaughter Sect, setting up such a large array was far too easy, requiring almost no effort.
Meanwhile, Tang Yi received Bishop Liu’s letter. After reading it, he immediately arranged for several other bishops to monitor Qingyu City. Simultaneously, he directly sent a letter to the headquarters of the Creation God Sect, reporting the situation at Qingfeng Mountain. This matter had to be reported because the Myriad Laws Sect’s deployment of a large-scale magic array at Qingfeng Mountain was extremely strange, demonstrating the sect’s strength. Therefore, it was necessary to report this so that the sect leader could decide their next course of action.
In Tang Yi’s view, the fact that the Myriad Laws Divine Sect had set up a magic array at Qingfeng Mountain was highly illogical. The most likely reasons were twofold: First, they had discovered something extraordinary at Qingfeng Mountain and were building a large magic array to protect it. However, given the current situation, this seemed unlikely. If they had indeed discovered something extraordinary, they would need to not only build a large magic array but also send people to guard it. Since there seemed to be no one guarding Qingfeng Mountain, they probably hadn’t discovered anything significant.
Second, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect could easily set up a large magic array. Frankly, Tang Yi preferred the first reason. If it was the first reason, it meant that while the Myriad Laws Divine Sect could set up a large magic array, it was extremely difficult for them. If it was the second reason, it meant that the cost of setting up a large magic array for the Myriad Laws Divine Sect was much lower than they imagined, which meant that the Myriad Laws Divine Sect was more difficult to deal with than they thought. This was what worried Tang Yi more.
It was precisely because of this thought that Tang Yi reported the matter to the sect immediately. The next step was to see how the Creation God Sect would react.
Meanwhile, Bishop Liu and his group had already made their arrangements. Their thousand-plus men formed a semicircle, encircling half of Qingfeng Mountain.
Once everyone was in position, Bishop Liu shouted, “Everyone, prepare! Three, two, one, attack!” With that, the men immediately attacked the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation. A deafening boom followed as all the attacks landed on the formation. However, Bishop Liu’s expression changed. He discovered that the formation hadn’t even trembled during their attack, meaning their assault was completely ineffective.
However, they couldn’t give up. Bishop Liu immediately shouted, “Attention everyone! Attack once every three breaths! Attack once every three breaths! Attack!” With his shout, the group attacked again, paused for three breaths, then attacked again, paused again for three breaths, and then attacked once more.
The three-breath interval between attacks ensured that most people attacked simultaneously, maximizing their offensive power.
However, after dozens of attacks, the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation showed no reaction whatsoever. Tang Yi, who had been watching their attacks, knew that such attacks were useless against the Eight Gates Golden Lock Formation. What unsettled him even more was that he hadn’t received any messages from those monitoring Qingyu City. There were only two possibilities: either Qingyu City wasn’t reacting at all, or those monitoring Qingyu City were all dead.
Tang Yi immediately sent letters to those people, and they replied quickly. There was no response from Qingyu City. Upon seeing the letter, Tang Yi breathed a sigh of relief. He then immediately wrote to Bishop Liu, telling him to retreat, as their attacks were ineffective.
Bishop Liu had also realized the futility of their attacks and was already preparing to retreat. However, upon receiving Tang Yi’s letter, he immediately ordered everyone to cease fire and retreat.
When everyone returned to the Golden Wheel of Creation, Tang Yi once again summoned them to his room. Once everyone was inside, Tang Yi spoke, “I’ve called you all here today to discuss the large-scale magic array at Qingfeng Mountain. Bishop Liu personally attacked that array. Bishop Liu, what are your thoughts?”
Bishop Liu’s face was grim. He said in a deep voice, “We attacked that large-scale magic array multiple times, but to no avail. Its defensive power is astonishing. Breaking through it is no easy task. I doubt even using the Golden Wheel of Creation would be sufficient.”
Tang Yi nodded, but his brows furrowed even more deeply. He said in a deep voice, “The first thing we must do now is break through the defensive array at Qingfeng Mountain. If we can’t even break through their defensive array, then we have no way to threaten the Myriad Laws Divine Sect.” “If we can’t keep them here as the sect says, preventing them from attacking other cities, then our strategic objective will be lost, and our mission will be a failure. So, how to break through this formation is what we need to do most right now.”
Everyone nodded, and then Tang Yi continued, “My idea is to gather everyone, plus the Creation Golden Wheel, and attack the defensive formation at Qingfeng Mountain together. I really don’t believe that we still can’t break through the defensive formation at Qingfeng Mountain.”
Everyone nodded. They had no other choice, and this was the best method they could think of at the moment. Such a large formation couldn’t be broken by formation-breaking talismans or formation-breaking artifacts. If a formation-breaking talisman was thrown at that formation, it would be like scratching an itch. So, the best way to deal with such a large formation is to break it with brute force.
Tang Yi glanced at the group and continued, “When we attacked that magic array today, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect didn’t react at all. In my opinion, there are only three possibilities: First, they simply didn’t know Qingfeng Mountain was under attack. They just set up a large magic array there and left, letting it operate on its own. But this is highly unlikely. Second, they knew someone was attacking Qingfeng Mountain, but they were confident in the large magic array there. They believed we couldn’t break it, so they didn’t come to check. Third, they left people at Qingfeng Mountain, and the enemy had already discovered our attack. But knowing we couldn’t break the array, they sent a letter to the Myriad Laws Divine Sect in Qingyu City, telling them that Qingfeng Mountain was safe. Therefore, the Myriad Laws Divine Sect members in Qingyu City didn’t come to support Qingfeng Mountain.”
Tang Yi paused here. After a moment, he continued, “Of these three scenarios, the first is actually the least likely. The Myriad Laws Divine Sect would never leave such a large-scale formation unattended. Therefore, the most probable scenario is either the second or the third. Regardless of which scenario it is, it means that this large-scale formation at Qingfeng Mountain is extremely difficult to deal with. Personally, I lean more towards the third scenario.”
Everyone nodded in agreement. Tang Yi’s words made a lot of sense. They also leaned more towards the third scenario. In fact, they found it hard to believe that the Myriad Laws Divine Sect could set up such a large-scale formation without leaving a single person behind. This was clearly impossible. Therefore, they believed that there must be members of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect at Qingfeng Mountain, but they had simply not shown themselves. Or perhaps they had shown themselves but used invisibility techniques to prevent them from seeing them, and since they were inside the defensive formation, their spiritual power couldn’t penetrate it, so it was normal that they couldn’t detect them.
Tang Yi said in a deep voice, “If it really is the third scenario, then we must guard against one thing: once we break through the defensive array at Qingfeng Mountain, or even if we might break through it, the Wanfa Divine Sect members at Qingfeng Mountain will definitely inform the Wanfa Divine Sect members in Qingyu City, and they will come to our aid. What we need to do is be careful of this situation. If the Wanfa Divine Sect members suddenly attack from Qingyu City without our knowledge, we will be in danger. Therefore, while attacking Qingfeng Mountain, we must set up several surveillance points around the area to prevent a surprise attack.”
