Chapter 157: Plan!

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

There were a total of three defensive lines in the Northern Region Alliance.

The first line of defense was mainly the magical beast valley. There, an array was set up to arrange people.

Due to the fact that the Sunset Monarchy’s troops were divided into three paths,

They besieged the magical beast valley!

It was announced that it had been broken.

The second line of defense was a natural barrier that cut across the Azure Sky Mountain Range of the Northern Region!

Many ambush formations had been set up.

There were also experts from various factions stationed here.

To the east of the Azure Sky Mountain Range was the Northern Region’s Hidden Dao Academy.

The west was occupied by the Sunset Monarchy!

At this place, if the three groups of people from the Sunset Monarchy wanted to break through this place, they could only pass through the narrow valley in the west.

As for the other parts of the Azure Sky Mountain Range, they towered into the clouds.

The higher they went, the more magical beasts there were, and the stronger they were.

It could be said that the Sunset Monarchy would definitely suffer heavy losses if they wanted to bypass the valley!

Therefore, this narrow valley was also known as the Heaven Wrath Valley.

Even though this place was easy to defend and difficult to attack, once it was forcibly broken through, in that case, the Sunset Monarchy would occupy most of the Northern Region!

As for the third line of defense…

It was the final resistance of the Northern Region’s Hidden Dao Academy with the help of the academy’s formation!

If they still lost…

In that case, they could only retreat to the extreme north of the Northern Region collectively.

It was extremely cold in the extreme north.

Ordinary cultivators could not survive in it at all.

Of course, this was also the last way to preserve the remaining talents of the sect.

Once they reached this step, perhaps they could only hide in the extreme north and recuperate.

This is the last measure of protection.

Unless it was absolutely necessary, the factions of the Northern Region would not enter the extreme north.

After all, the living conditions in that place were too harsh.

Even martial cultivators would find it difficult to survive.

At this moment, Northern Region Hidden Dao Academy.

Wu Deshi suddenly looked at the sky and heaved a sigh of relief.

“They’re here.”

As soon as he finished speaking, in the sky, three ships arrived.

They were the Southern Region, the Eastern Region, and the Hidden Dao Academy in the Western Region.

Everyone came out to welcome him.

The ship landed and the people from the Eastern Region were the first to walk out.

The people from the various forces also knew the person leading the team.

It was the Deputy Dean of the Eastern Region’s Hidden Dao Academy, Yu Su.

The disciple behind him was led by the genius disciple of the Eastern Region’s Hidden Dao Academy, Shi Sheng.

The people from the Western Region followed closely behind.

It was Zhang He who led the team.

The Southern Region was the last to walk out.

Qin Tiannan came here personally.

The people following behind were naturally Ye Qiubai, Yun Ming, Xin Hongyi, Zhong Wu, and the others.

Wu Deshi stepped forward.

He said with a serious expression, “There’s no time. Please move to the meeting hall. We’ll discuss a strategy.”

Looking at Wu Deshi’s serious eyes, no one said anything and nodded.

In the meeting hall, there was a formation plate.

On the formation plate, there was detailed information about the Northern Region’s defensive line.

As well as the places where the three armies of the Sunset Monarchy passed.

Naturally, the locations of the three armies and the routes of attack were unknown.

Qin Tiannan was the first to speak, “How’s the situation?”

Wu Deshi sighed slightly and shook his head. “The situation is very bad.”

“The strength displayed by the Sunset Monarchy has exceeded our expectations.”

“The first line of defense was broken in just a day.”

“We’ve already retreated to the Azure Mountain Range and plan to stop the Sunset Monarchy in the Valley of Heaven’s Wrath!”

The Vice Principal of the Eastern Region’s Hidden Dao Academy, Yu Su, frowned and asked in confusion, “We’ve also heard of the strength of the Sunset Monarchy. Even though it’s powerful, it can’t be that easy to break through the Northern Region Alliance, right?”

“The Sunset Monarchy is hiding their strength.”

At this moment, a voice came from behind everyone.

At the entrance of the hall, an old man slowly walked over.

He said solemnly, “Three days ago, I planned to stop one of the troops, but the other party also had the corresponding protective measures.”

The person who spoke was Yun Jing!

The number one sword cultivator of the Northern Region was the strongest existence among everyone present!

However, Yun Jing’s aura was a little dispirited now!

Facing Yun Jing, Yu Su did not dare to be negligent. He hurriedly asked, “Elder Yun has made a move? How’s the situation?”

Yun Jing sighed and said, “As you can see, not only did it not consume the other party’s vitality, but I was also seriously injured.”

Everyone was in an uproar!

“There’s a Corpse Puppet in the other party’s army, and that Corpse Puppet’s strength has reached the half-step Void God Realm!”

“His physical body is incomparably powerful. For this old man to be able to escape from him, I have already used all my strength.”

Corpse Puppet!

Qin Tiannan’s expression changed drastically. “Hasn’t the method of making corpse puppets been lost for a long time?”

There were countless branches in the Dao of Puppets.

As for corpse puppets, they were the most evil puppet techniques that the Heavenly Dao did not tolerate!

It was also because it was too strange that it was destroyed by many experts in ancient times and did not leave behind any inheritance!

Now that the Corpse Puppet has returned to the world, how could everyone not be horrified?

Yun Jing said solemnly, “1 don’t know, but I’m afraid there’s more than one Corpse Puppet. The three armies must have Corpse Puppets guarding them to prevent the experts on the Martial Roll from ambushing them.”

Three half-step Void God Realm corpse puppets.

Everyone fell silent.

Seeing that the morale was low, Wu Deshi shouted, “Now is not the time to be silent. The most important thing is to stop the Sunset Monarchy.”

Yu Su asked, “Dean Wu, do you have a plan?”

Wu Deshi nodded slightly and said, “Because of the existence of the Valley of Heavenly Retribution, the Azure Mountain Range is easy to defend and difficult to attack. We’ll make use of this and send more people to set up an array formation in the Valley of Heaven’s Wrath. We’ll just defend here.”

“As long as we guard this place, we can hold on until the headquarters supports us.”

Someone asked, “Why aren’t the reinforcements from the Hidden Dao Academy’s headquarters here yet?”

Wu Deshi said solemnly, “The previous king of the Sunset Monarchy is not dead and has already broken through to the Void God Realm. With his surveillance, the Main Academy can’t act rashly.”

A Void God Realm expert!

Everyone was shocked, but they soon understood.

A Void God Realm expert could already be said to be the peak power of this mainland after all.

Once a Void God Realm expert insisted on stopping a faction, even people of the same realm could not stop him.

Thinking of this, everyone could only nod and agree with this plan.

At this moment, a young voice sounded.

“I think it might not be realistic to just defend.”

Hmm?

Everyone was stunned and looked at the source of the voice.

It was Ye Qiubai.

Qin Tiannan and Yun Jing also looked over and were slightly stunned.

Ye Qiubai walked forward.

He pointed to the location of the Valley of Heaven’s Wrath.

“Even though this place is easy to defend and difficult to attack, you have to know that the other party already knows that there are three half-step Void God Realm corpse puppets.”

“Once the other party forcefully breaks through, I’m afraid it will be difficult to defend.”

“We will also suffer heavy losses from gathering manpower here.”

Someone shouted angrily, “What guidance is a kid giving? What else can we do?!”

Yun Jing interrupted this person and looked at Ye Qiubai. He said seriously, “What do you think?”

Ye Qiubai’s gaze shifted to the outside of the Valley of Heaven’s Wrath.

He said softly, “I think we need to take the initiative and launch an ambush outside..”
