Chapter 511: Planning the Ambush.

Yasenia looked at the tall mountain and pondered. "As Kali said, here is a good place to set up everything. Hmm, Angel dear, how skilled are you in this kind of large-scale formation-building?"

Angel looked at the mountain peak and asked. "You want me to create a formation big enough to cover this whole mountain?"

Yasenia nodded. "Yes. I don't know if you are skilled enough, though. Moreover, it will probably have to resist constant attacks from many cultivators as well as having enough strength to fight against them."

Angel didn't give an answer right away and analyzed the surroundings.

She flew upwards rapidly, and the others followed. Angel was the core of this operation, so until she started, the rest of our girls could not do anything.

Mirrory, Tatyana, and Valeria just followed behind, leisurely observing their actions.

Yasenia's mind entered her serious thinking mode, and her aura became sharper.

"What do you think, Angel?"

Angel was also serious and answered with a calm tone. "The time I'll need will be the most restraining factor. Creating a formation powerful enough for what you want me to do in this short time frame is impossible. Moreover, time is still ticking, and I must plan everything."

Yasenia nodded and commented. "Planning it is good enough. This time, I want to also have in mind how strong our seniors really are. Therefore, we'll do the planning this time, and they'll do the building. I want to use Tatyana's formation skills with Mirrory as an aide with Valeria's skills as a core for the effects."

Kali asked. "I suppose you want to use Valeria's skills because I would be the one contributing to the formation's attack patterns."

Yasenia nodded. "Correct. I want your and Evelyn's skills to be the core of our attack and defensive formations for ambushes. The combination of storm and nature attacks is perfect. Andrea's skills are powerful but not as good with large-scale armies."

Evelyn frowned. "I disagree. Andrea's Sun and Metal skills combine in powerful area-of-effect attacks. Fighting against Andrea is like fighting in an inferno that consumes everything in its way."

Yasenia refuted. "You are right. However, what about when the enemies are in the hundreds? What if the terrain is not a small arena but this whole mountain? We are not strong enough yet to cover this terrain even while enhancing everything with the formations. Conversely, your fast lightning attribute and Kali's ability to create armies that sustain, heal, and multiply themselves is much better."

Andrea asked. "You mainly want to use Kali's army formation skills, so my Sun attribute would actually be in the way, right?"

"Yes. Andrea, you are the strongest when fighting on the front lines. However, Kali is the strongest when two armies are fighting, and she unleashes her powers."

Andrea asked. "What about Angel?"

Yasenia shook her head. "Angel's army-building skills are powerful, but they are too telling. Who else in this continent can create glass-attributed creatures to fight off enemies? Using intelligent dryads or plant creatures can mask the attack like an ambush from an unknown third party."

Evelyn realized. "Right, we are not only choosing the strongest but also something that can pass under the radar even when we use our skills in the future."

Kali asked. "But, if I use summoning skills in the future, won't it be the same?"

Yasenia shook her head. "Not at all. Plant creatures exist by themselves. Moreover, there are clans made of them. At least, there should be if Ghana hasn't lied in her reports." Fiind updated novels at novelhall.com

Yasenia continued. "I remember reading a report that a few of the plant creature clans were captured and used by alchemy sects as ingredients in the past, so their resentment toward powerful sects is more than justified. Kali's skill to summon them won't affect anything as long as Kali's summons don't show intelligence at any given time."

Kali nodded and asked. "Yasenia, my plant creatures can benefit from your energy because of your close involvement in my development. Why don't you also participate? I think it would also make everything much stronger."

Evelyn answered. "Yasenia's skills are too unique. Have you seen people using attacks like Yasenia's throughout the junior tournament? If one of the attacks is raining down stars or something like that...."

Kali laughed. "Right. It is like saying that Yasenia has something to do with it. Speaking of which, do Plant Summoners, or summoners in general, exist in this continent where Body Cultivation is the main path?"

Yasenia commented. "It's not unheard of. Beast tamers are more common than in the Sky Continent. However, since only humans can create complete beast bonds, they are beast tamers connected by exotic but less restraining skills. Conversely, this has prevented Demonic Beast Cultivators from appearing since connections are much more fragile."

Andrea was impressed. "You are extremely well informed, love."

Yasenia nodded without a change of face. "Besides one or two hours every other day, I've buried myself in books and reports from the harpies. My knowledge of the continent is still shallow, but I can defend myself."

Tatyana, Valeria, and Mirrory looked at them with eyes full of praise. The conversation was productive; they didn't just mindlessly follow Yasenia's opinions and sought extra knowledge to help with the progress.

The discussion was fruitful and flowed like a well-oiled machine. Moreover, Yasenia's leadership ability was pronounced at times like this, showing the growth and maturity she gained during her trial.

Angel finished observing the surroundings and commented. "Yasenia, to create the formation, it should go like...."

Everyone blinked twice and looked at Angel.

Kali smiled. "I'll keep that option in mind."

Andrea asked while looking at the poison. "Did you test them, Kali?"

Kali nodded. "I used the three harpies that attacked Yasenia to perform various tests with my poisonous and healing pills. Those three are very useful and very resilient. To be honest, I'm often surprised at the durability of a Body Cultivator. I believe a Spirit Cultivator of similar strength should already have exhausted themselves and died."

Evelyn and Andrea sighed. 'The darkness that hides in the gentle Angel and Kali still takes me off guard.'

The night went by quickly, and Yasenia and company returned by five in the morning.

Angel pointed at a rooftop and commented. "Look, Yasenia. Someone is looking at our room there."

Yasenia followed her finger and saw someone hiding in a stealthy position. "Oh, my baby has such a sharp eye."

Angel smiled and hugged Yasenia, to which our dragoness answered by patting her head.

Tatyana asked. "Should I kill him for spying on you? Hmm, maybe death is too simple. Do you need more test subjects, Kali? That one seems strong."

Yasenia shook her head. "Will it affect us in any way?"

Tatyana shrugged. "The master will probably feel frustrated. But if they come to us because of this, it is like telling the world they were observing you in secret. Probably, they will just be more careful the next time."

Yasenia was curious. "I want to see you capture him. However, how will we carry him back?"

Tatyana blinked. "Right. I forgot... Then, I'll just kill him."

Tatyana extended her fair and beautiful hand and then clutched it into a fist as she chanted, and her red eyes glowed with a bloody light. "[Death Intent Level Nine], [Destiny Intent Level Nine], [Fated Death]."

They all had the vision of seeing a string being cut.

Tatyana lowered her hand and released a breath. "Wow, using that skill is much more tiresome than I expected with this body. If I only had the energy you have available, little treasure, I would be empty right now."

They all blinked repeatedly, and then an idea flashed in their mind. 'Don't tell me...'

They focused on the person, and the previous faint aura had disappeared. Andrea gulped. "He died?"

Tatyana nodded. "He died."

Our girls didn't know what to say.

Valeria commented. "Intents are really powerful."

Evelyn asked. "Does that skill work on us, Tatyana?"

Tatyana tilted her head, confused. "Why would it not work? If it has life, then I can kill it."

Yasenia asked. "What do we do with the body?"

Tatyana shrugged. "Leave it as is. Somebody will recover it later... Right, the spatial ring."

Tatyana waved her hand, and the spatial ring flew into her hand from the corpse.

Tatyana looked at it and tsked. "So professional. It has nothing but a few assassination tools."

Tatyana crushed the ring and smiled at Yasenia. "Let's go back, little treasure."

Yasenia nodded, and the others followed Mommy Tatyana obediently.

While using stealth skills to move around, they arrived at their inn without problems. They checked the surveillance formations and saw nothing out of place or anyone coming to check on them.

Therefore, they entered, and nobody realized that our girls had moved in the middle of the night.
