Chapter 695: Beginning To Deploy
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The alliances that had been established up until now:
Purgatory City: Infernal Purgatory, Blue Sky Yellow River Palace.
Star Cloud City: Le Zhengchi led a group of rogue cultivators.
Helcrown City: Ye Qiubai, Blackie, Mu Fusheng, Lin Zhinan, Gu Xi, Su Muyou, Immortal Ape Village, Chi Bing.
It looked like Ye Qiubai’s alliance team had the advantage be it numbers or superficial strength, but it was the Rogue Cultivator Alliance represented by Le Zhengchi. Their strength was extraordinary, and their individual strength was an existence comparable to the geniuses of those top factions!
Purgatory City had the fewest people.
On the way, Zhinan Lin thought of this problem. He rubbed his chin and thought, “How can they make up for the numerical disadvantage?”
“If it’s a city battle, in a situation where there’s no huge difference in strength, the advantage of numbers will be vividly displayed!”
When there were too many people, whether it was to outflank them, attack them head-on, or defend in many aspects, they had a natural advantage.
Ye Qiubai was also thinking about this question. “At that time, the rules stated that there was no limit to the number of people in every city. Then, if they happened to choose a city, wouldn’t they be able to obtain rewards without fighting?”
Mu Fusheng shook his head. “That’s the strangest point. According to the others, Death Soul City is an extremely dangerous place. It can be seen from the first two tests.”
“Then this final step will definitely not be simple.”
“Could it be…”
Suddenly, Lin Zhinan and Mu Fusheng said at the same time, “If we both choose a city, Death Soul City will definitely not let us pass the test so easily. There will definitely be other cities to make up for it!”
Ye Qiubai nodded. “In other words, the side with fewer people might enjoy the supplies provided by Death Soul City, right?”
Everyone looked enlightened when they heard this.
This was the only explanation for the rules.
There was no special scenery along the way, as they met a bumpy desert after passing through the forest.
Finally, they arrived at a plain filled with black demonic qi, even though the soil was completely black.
When they arrived at this place, Ye Qiubai and the others could already see the outline of a small city.
After walking in, there was nothing special about the city.
However, there were three stone pillars that pierced through the heavens and the earth in the middle!
It was filled with the suppressive power of the seal.
The suppressive power of the seal here was many times stronger than the suppressive power outside.
The entire city was square in shape.
They were surrounded by city walls.
There was a city gate in every direction.
When Ye Qiubai and the others walked to the north gate, the city gate automatically opened.
“Go in.”
Ye Qiubai and the others stepped into the city gate.
The moment they stepped through the city gate, everyone realized that the outline of the skull on the back of their hands was filled with the word ‘demon’.
Obviously, this mark was used to record the symbol of the city he belonged to.
At this moment, Lin Zhinan said, “There are some things we should say in advance.”
Everyone turned to look at Lin Zhinan.
Lin Zhinan explained, “If it’s a city battle, then we have to choose a lord and an army. Without a leader, if we fight alone, we will be in a state of disunity. It’s very easy for the other party to find flaws and defeat us one by one!”
Su Muyou squinted and asked, “You want to be the leader?”
“No, no, no.” Lin Zhinan hurriedly waved his hand and smiled. “Miss Su, don’t harm me. You make me look like 1 want to fight for power.”
“Then who’s going to do it?”
Lin Zhinan smiled at Ye Qiubai and said, “Brother Ye, how about you come?”
This was not flattery.
Lin Zhinan explained, “Brother Ye is Brother Blackie and Brother Mu’s senior brother. Moreover, you guys have defeated us before.”
“Strength is recognized by all of us.”
“So, what do you think, Brother Ye?”
Ye Qiubai looked at the others.
The others all looked at themselves.
He had no intention of objecting at all.
Seeing this, Ye Qiubai nodded and said, “In that case, I’ll temporarily take over the position of team leader. If you feel that there’s anything wrong, just mention it at any time.”
Lin Zhinan smiled and said, “Alright then. Brother Ye, you can start assigning tasks.”
Ye Qiubai thought for a moment and began to say, “Lin Zhinan, you’ll be the military counselor.”
“Mu Fusheng, you will be the rear support. Inscribe talismans and build the defense of the city first.”
Mu Fusheng and Lin Zhinan nodded.
This was their area of expertise.
“Su Muyou, lead some people to check the east gate.”
“Blackie, you…”
When Ye Qiubai looked at Blackie,
he realized that Blackie was staring fixedly at the three stone pillars in the middle, engrossed.
Seeing this, Ye Qiubai said, “Blackie, if you have something you want, go take a look first.”
Blackie didn’t refuse and immediately rushed over.
He could sense that there was something he needed under the suppression of the three stone pillars!
It was as if it was guiding his soul!
As he advanced, the closer he got, the more he could feel the memory fragments in his sea of consciousness flashing crazily!
Very likely, one of the soul fragments was right at the center, where the three stone pillars were suppressing!
Blackie needed to understand what was really going on.
Ye Qiubai was arranging missions.
First, he had to understand the structure of Helcrown City.
They still did not understand the structure of Helcrown after all.
He had yet to fully understand the structure of a city.
Then how could they defend?
At that time, if the enemy discovered the loophole and broke through it in one go, wouldn’t they be finished?
Mu Fusheng found a quiet mansion, prepared to inscribe talismans.
And the choice of this place had to be able to take care of the four city walls in time.
All the missions began to progress steadily.
On the other side, Balckie had also arrived under the three stone pillars.
There was a huge grotto here!
Outside the grotto, the three stone pillars suppressed the entrance of the grotto at the same time!
Blackie could see it clearly.
Strands of black demonic qi constantly flowed out of the grotto.
Under the suppression of the stone pillar, the demonic qi could not completely rush out, but it still revealed a little.
With just a slight touch, Blackie could sense an aura that came from the same source.
This aura could make his blood boil!
It made Blackie even more certain that another soul fragment was suppressing under the grotto.
However, he was still unable to break the seal of the stone pillar.
Ye Qiubai walked over and asked, “There’s something you want down here, right?”
Blackie nodded.
“Don’t be anxious. Presumably, as long as the other two cities are broken, the seal here will naturally dissipate..”
