Chapter 1764: Number Game

~8 min read 1,432 words

The other party pretended to be Old Man Luo, intending to trick out Pengqi and collect Profound Crystals, and even prepared twenty-six or twenty-seven props. If their side had been a step late in taking action, Luo Xie would have died, and the Tiangong would very likely have obtained over a thousand jin of Profound Crystals.

This was the most important supply material at the moment.

Xiao Wencheng suddenly transmitted sound to He Lingchuan and the others through the Haoyuan Golden Mirror: "Elder Liu sneaked out of the Banqiu barrier and sent intelligence that the team sent by the Tiangong built several layers of vine walls under the lighthouse, and there were giant poisonous snakes swimming back and forth among them. These things seem to have grown out of a huge basket, and they are especially sensitive to ground vibrations. If Elder Liu hadn't used some means, the disciples would have been discovered long ago. Therefore, the Banqiu lighthouse is guarded by at least one Immortal."

Countless poisonous snakes and giant vines crawling out of a flower basket? What a coincidence, He Lingchuan had seen this set of divine abilities.

"Goddess Feng He!" He said immediately, "The one attached to Venerable Diyan is a subordinate god under Miaozhantian, Goddess Feng He. It sent down a clone in the Yao King's Palace, but it was killed by Immortal Venerable Qian Huan's external dharma image; one of its signature skills is space folding divine art."

Since he and the Immortals were temporarily on the same front, he took the initiative to share intelligence with the Illusion Sect.

"That is Goddess Feng He? Good." The Elders had a count in their hearts.

Goddess Feng He was not one of the most battle-hardened gods, but its space folding divine art was very famous, and Xiao Wencheng had heard of it more than once.

Now that they had a little more intelligence, they had a little more countermeasures for the battle.

Elder Liu asked on behalf of Sect Master Xiao: "When will we take action at the lighthouse?"

People had already sneaked over, and several Elders watched from Banqiu as the lighthouse built by the Tiangong grew taller and taller, covering a wider and wider range, and was about to shroud the mine pit, which made them anxious.

"Don't be anxious, it's not the time yet." He Lingchuan had his own calculations, "The lighthouse is useless if the battle doesn't start, but maintaining the barrier consumes energy, and the lighthouse growing taller consumes more energy. Letting the Tiangong team waste a little more Profound Crystals is not a bad thing."

This logic seemed correct? Although the Immortals still vaguely felt that something was not quite right in their hearts.

He Lingchuan smiled secretly, of course, it wasn't right. But he wouldn't say it clearly, only asking: "Has the strength around Bai Ziqi been figured out?"

The Immortal and Demon sides had been fighting for so long, and he knew the strength of the Illusion Sect very well, but because of the lighthouse barrier, it had been difficult to count how many great powers the Heavenly Demons had brought in. Asking the captured captives was also vague, and no one knew for sure—nor should they know.

"Currently, there are three Demon Immortals who have shown their faces and fought for the Tiangong, and seven Immortals suspected of being possessed by Heavenly Demons. When we concentrated our strength to annihilate the lighthouse earlier, we already killed two Immortals or Heavenly Demons." This "suspected" meant that the Illusion Sect also couldn't figure out whether these Immortals were their true selves or possessed by Heavenly Demons, after all, it couldn't be seen from the appearance alone, "It cannot be ruled out that there are hidden experts around Bai Ziqi. Heh, this is inevitable."

Whether it was the Illusion Sect or Bai Ziqi, neither would show all their trump cards at the current stage.

"Eight opponents at the Immortal level." He Lingchuan calculated in his heart, saying on the side, "This level of battle is indeed where you have the advantage."

In terms of average strength, the Tiangong's Immortal level was not as good as the Illusion Sect's.

Being Immortals, there were also differences in cultivation levels.

"This is the basis for my plan." He Lingchuan said solemnly, "The Banqiu lighthouse must be destroyed. We must try our best to disperse the strong guards of the tower and defeat them one by one. Therefore, the battle at the lighthouse can only start after the battle at the spiritual mine cave begins."

Before that, everyone should stay calm.

Elder Liu relayed Elder Liu's question:

"Will the Tiangong definitely send Demon Immortals or Immortals to occupy this mine cave?"

"Yes." He Lingchuan said without hesitation, "Bai Ziqi has always been steady in his work, and the spiritual mine is the direct goal of his building the lighthouse, so there can be no mistakes. He will definitely send Immortals to sit in town."

"There are only eight great powers placed on the table by the Tiangong, including Demon Immortals. How can they put three at the lakeside battlefield? Otherwise, they won't be able to hold the field; there must be at least two at the second lighthouse. We don't necessarily attack, but they must defend, otherwise, the second lighthouse they worked so hard to build might be extinguished."

Building a base is not all advantages; with territory, one must arrange manpower to guard it.

"Then the great powers Bai Ziqi can arrange to Banqiu are only three." He Lingchuan counted on his fingers for them, "Even if there are two hidden great powers around Bai Ziqi, and they are all sent over, there are only five in total. I believe you can fight, but it will definitely be strenuous."

The Elders were silent; He Lingchuan's analysis was very realistic.

"We will drag down the great powers he sent to occupy the cave and dig for ore, and you Elders can stretch your hands and feet at Banqiu."

The Immortals then said nothing, defaulting to his method.

After another ten breaths, Xiao Wencheng's voice sounded again:

"Eight people sent by the Tiangong have arrived at the entrance of the mine cave, be careful."

They were here, the crowd felt a jolt in their hearts.

Soon, the small eyeball spider placed by Zhu Xiuer outside the cave also saw them.

There were eight people, no, nine people.

Because just as they stood still, something jumped off one person's shoulder and turned into a behemoth when it landed.

"This old thing is still alive?" Zhu Xiuer's voice was full of surprise. She really didn't expect to see an old acquaintance in this True Immortal cave dwelling isolated from the world, "It actually defected to Miaozhantian?"

He Lingchuan and Dong Rui shared the eyeball spider's field of vision and also saw Zhu Xiuer's old acquaintance.

This was not a person, but a giant lizard with yellow base and dark red patterns! At first glance, it looked very much like a crocodile, but its mouth was thinner and longer, its tongue was forked, and its movements were much more agile than a crocodile demon. Not only did it walk like a gust of wind, but its long tail tip could easily touch its own eyelids.

"After this guy became an Immortal, it called itself 'Jieshui True Person', but it actually lives in volcanic lava and is a fire giant lizard. All its abilities are related to fire!" Zhu Xiuer chuckled, "Before it became an Immortal, my sister suffered a loss under its hands and had a leg bitten off."

What a long-standing grudge. Dong Rui smiled and made hand signs to it: "Do you want to avenge your second sister?"

"Not as skilled as others, what's there to say?" But Zhu Xiuer was eager to try, flicking its front claws, "I haven't heard news of it for a long, long time. I thought it had long since become a lizard jerky, but I didn't expect it to go and be a subordinate for Miaozhantian."

"It probably didn't come from Beijia, but was originally lurking in some corner of the Shining Gold Plain. There are many great demons in Shining Gold, and Miaozhantian has truly unearthed all its power in Shining Gold." Zhu Xiuer clicked its tongue, "By the way, besides this old lizard, that big-headed man is also suspected to be at the Immortal level, but I don't know his name. There are too many wild Immortals from ancient times."

It was talking about a dwarf. ===== CHAPTER 1765 =====
