Chapter 1441 Dong Minghai's Decision
It took Duan Qing only about a day to design the formation structure, and then arranged people to start formally setting up the formation.
In order to win this battle of Suixian, the Sui Clan spent a lot of money and purchased a large number of materials for setting up the formation in advance from the Xianling League. All these materials were carried by Duan Qing and placed in Duan Qing's inner mustard.
Just as Duan Qing led many Sui Clan to set up the protective formation, the 40,000 Sui Clan led by Dong Minghai and others also went deep into the three small realms of the Sanyuan Realm, cleared some mechanical puppets one after another, and collected Sanyuan cones while advancing to the other end of the Sanyuan Realm.
However, it was strange that after several days, the Sui Clan entered the three small realms without encountering the Xianling League.
In the Zhongyuan Realm.
Dong Minghai was puzzled and had an ominous premonition.
What's going on!
Since he set out to the present, the Sanyuan cones collected by his men have already exceeded 10,000, and the Zhongyuan Realm has almost walked halfway, but he didn't even meet a person from the Xianling League!
Thinking of this, Dong Minghai took out the Sanyuan mirror from his bosom and studied it again.
Before the Suixian War began, the Xianling League distributed a Sanyuan mirror to everyone. In addition to the specific elimination method, this mirror also has the ability to see through the mechanical puppets and can find the mechanical puppets within a radius of 100 miles.
Through the Sanyuan mirror, Dong Minghai found that there were no mechanical puppets in the rear area, while in front of the team, there were a large number of mechanical puppets densely distributed.
Putting away the mechanical Sanyuan mirror, Dong Minghai looked around and confirmed that the location was correct, and he was even more confused.
This place has long passed the center line of the Zhongyuan Realm. If the Xianling League entered the Zhongyuan Realm to collect the Sanyuan Cone, it should have cleared this area.
Could it be that the people of the Xianling League gave up the Zhongyuan Realm and concentrated all the people in the Shangyuan Realm and Xiayuan Realm?
Or did the people of the Xianling League give up the attack and choose to defend in the base camp?
As soon as this idea came out, it was immediately rejected by Dong Minghai.
Judging from the way of winning the Suixian battle, whether it is collecting the three-element cones to eliminate all the opponents, or attacking the opponent's Jiuxiao Lingyun Pillar, you need to take the initiative to attack, and passive defense will have no chance of winning.
The Immortal Spirit Alliance will not be so stupid.
So... did the Immortal Spirit Alliance really deliberately empty the Zhongyuan Realm?
"The three small realms are the same size, why is it the Zhongyuan Realm!" Dong Minghai murmured in a low voice.
Suddenly, Dong Minghai's eyes widened suddenly, thinking of another possibility, and looked back.
No way!
Are those people in the Immortal Spirit Alliance really so bold?
Dong Minghai did not dare to delay, and immediately gathered his men, asking those who collected the three-element cones to report the location of the mechanical puppets one by one.
Soon, a distribution map of the mechanical puppets in the Zhongyuan Realm was drawn.
It can be found from the map that the location distribution of the mechanical puppets is irregular, some places have more, some places have fewer, but the distribution is basically uniform.
Dong Minghai studied the map carefully and became more certain of his thoughts.
On the surface, the positions of the mechanical puppets are evenly distributed, but if you look closely, you can find that some of them are blank. These blank areas are connected in a string, like several narrow paths in the forest.
Sure enough!
The Immortal Spirit Alliance actually did this!
Dong Minghai hated it in his heart.
When he led the team to advance before, in order not to leave any mechanical puppets behind, he deliberately divided the team into more scattered groups, and then used the three-element mirror carried by each person to try to find mechanical puppets. It can be said that it is almost impossible to miss any mechanical puppets wherever they pass.
With this carpet-style approach, not only will the mechanical puppets not be missed, but if the people of the Immortal Spirit Alliance appear, it will be difficult to escape the eyes of his men.
But obviously, he overlooked a very important point.
The Three-element Realm was opened up by the Immortal Spirit Alliance, and the mechanical puppets in the Three-element Realm were also placed by the Immortal Spirit Alliance.
In other words, the Immortal Spirit Alliance team must have known the position distribution of the mechanical puppets in advance.
With the intelligence obtained in advance, and the distribution of the mechanical puppets in the Zhongyuan Realm, the Xianling League team may have already taken advantage of the loopholes and slipped behind his team from under his nose to attack the Jiuxiao Lingyun Pillar!
This possibility is much greater than the Xianling League letting the Zhongyuan Realm empty!
Thinking of this, Dong Minghai couldn't help but have a headache.
Even before the start, the Sui Clan had made as many possible predictions as possible, but this one was not among them, and there was no emergency arrangement for this situation.
Who would have thought that the Xianling League would use the home advantage so much!
Obviously, there are now two ways in front of his 10,000 people.
One is to immediately return to defend the Jiuxiao Lingyun Pillar of his own side and keep the base camp safe.
The other is to go straight to Huanglong and rush straight to the opponent's Jiuxiao Lingyun Pillar.
These two methods, one conservative, one radical, if you return to defend, it will undoubtedly enter a tug-of-war, and the Suixian battle will be difficult to end in a short time.
If they directly attacked the Nine Heavens Lingyun Pillar on the opposite side, they might be able to end the battle very early. With such a surprise attack by the Immortal Spirit Alliance, there would definitely not be many people left in its base camp.
Of course, the premise is that their people can defend the base camp!
After a little thought, Dong Minghai finally made up his mind to stop collecting the Three Yuan Cones and headed towards the base camp of the Immortal Spirit Alliance at full speed.
Such an opportunity is really rare.
Whether it is for the Sui Clan or for himself, he does not want to miss such a rare opportunity.
…
At the same time, at the entrance and exit of the Sui Clan in the Zhongyuan Realm, the monks of the Immortal Spirit Alliance passed through the light curtain one after another. In a dozen breaths, more than 10,000 people gathered.
At the front of the crowd, Yuwen Gudao of the Tianji Sect stretched out his hand to straighten the jade crown on his head and stood proudly.
Next to him, a young man in white clothes and a white cloak stood side by side with Yuwen Gudao, staring at the Nine Sky Lingyun Pillar vaguely visible in the sky.
After a moment of silence, Yuwen Gudao spoke first: "Brother Wu, Taoist Zuo and his friends should be here soon."
Hearing this, the cloaked man turned his head to look left and right at the entrances and exits of the Shangyuan Realm and the Xiayuan Realm on both sides, and hummed softly.
"Well, the routes of the other two realms are a little more detours than the Zhongyuan Realm. If nothing unexpected happens, they will arrive in less than half an hour."
His words were quite firm, as if he had already been familiar with the routes of the Shangyuan Realm and the Xiayuan Realm.
Yuwen Gudao nodded in agreement, then chuckled and said, "Haha, I really didn't expect that Brother Wu would come to participate in this year's immortal battle."
"If you, Yuwen Gudao, can come, why can't I, Wu Ji, come?" The cloaked man said calmly.
"Brother Wu, you are joking. I just think that what you practice is the way of soul-devouring. Killing is not allowed in this year's immortal battle, which doesn't seem to agree with Brother Wu's character."
"It's none of your business." The cloaked man responded indifferently.
Yuwen Gudao smiled and was too lazy to argue with Wu Ji.
Curiosity is natural, but he, Yuwen Gudao, doesn't have the habit of sticking to a cold butt with a warm face.
