Seeing Han Fulai and Yang Lu analyzing and analyzing, Lin Dong was the first to become impatient.
He said with a look of disdain on his face: "I think Manager Han and Fellow Daoist Yang are really worrying too much. How can ordinary fortifications stop our generation of cultivators?"
The two of them knew that Lin Dong was about to start showing off, and they were expecting a burst of rainbow farts.
After Lin Dong's vanity was greatly satisfied, Yang Lu returned to the business: "Of course it would be best if Tian Beixi could be killed, but we can't see her at all now. It doesn't mean that she can cast demons without spiritual energy.
Is that illegal? Our fleet is approaching, why doesn’t she take action?"
It is said that only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win a hundred battles, but Han Fulai really couldn't figure out the reality of Guhong Island's army.
Now that the Haiya Fleet has sailed into the outlying island strait, it has cut off the communication between the Guhong Island troops and the rear. If it continues to drag on for a month or two, the first one to be unable to withstand it will definitely be the Guhong Island army.
The Guhong Island army will either continue to sweep away other outlying island lords, or they will turn around and deal with the Haiya Fleet and confront the Haiya Fleet across the sea like a cowed turtle. What does this mean?
Isn't this using one's shortcomings to attack the other's strengths?
Although such an exhausting effort would be more beneficial to the Haiya Fleet, Han Fulai still hoped for a quick victory.
From Han Fulai's point of view, the Outlying Island War was a proxy war fought by the Haiya Chamber of Commerce on behalf of the Wuliang Sword Faction. Now that the Wuliang Sword Faction has budgeted 30 million spirit stone coins, how much can the Haiya Chamber of Commerce finally get from it?
The benefit depends entirely on how small the cost he can end the battle.
If the Haiya Fleet delays off the island for one more day, the Haiya Chamber of Commerce will pay more for this war, which means that the Haiya Chamber of Commerce's profits will be affected even more.
The profits of the Haiya Chamber of Commerce are related to the vital interests of tens of thousands of cultivators in the entire Haiya system.
Han Fulai's uncle, Han Xinhe, was only the third-in-command of the Haiya Department, but Han Fulai was able to grab the lucrative job of commanding the Haiya Fleet because Han Fulai had shown strong ability to do things in the past and convinced the Haiya Department monks that he would fight for everyone's interests.
Han Fulai was able to make a lot of money by taking advantage of the opportunity of his expedition to the outlying islands, and it also made everyone in the Haiya family turn a blind eye. This is because everyone thinks that although Han Fulai is a bit greedy, he is still very capable and is always more corrupt than others.
It's better not to do anything.
Therefore, Han Fulai must make achievements in this operation so that the Han family can win more support within the Haiya system.
Han Fulai had already wasted an extra six days in order to blackmail the lord of the outlying island. If he continued to spend so long with the forces of Fire Cloud State, the potential pressure he would bear would only increase.
If the costs paid by the Haiya Chamber of Commerce are too high, the reputation of both himself and the Han family will be greatly affected.
If things really get to this point and there is another opportunity to make money, everyone will not let Han Fulai, who is "incompetent in doing things", take the lead!
However, Han Fulai could not bring the small calculations of the factions within the Haiya faction to the table.
Seeing that Han Fulai was silent for a long time, it was Lin Dong who finally lost his temper: "I think Tian Beixi is just trying to make things up! I have already faintly noticed her aura. Her aura is far weaker than mine. I have full strength."
I’m sure I can capture her.”
Cultivators can guide spiritual energy through their sixth sense called divine consciousness.
The more powerful a cultivator is, the greater the influence of his spiritual consciousness on the aura environment. Just like a powerful magnet, even if he stands still, he can subconsciously distort the aura environment around him.
It is said that when the emotions of high-level cultivators in the Nascent Soul stage fluctuate greatly, they don't even need to deliberately activate spells to suppress the pressure and make the cultivators in the Qi refining stage breathless.
The unconscious disturbance caused by the spiritual consciousness of cultivators to the aura environment is also called breath by cultivators.
Without considering the concealment spell, a cultivator with keen spiritual consciousness can completely judge whether other cultivators are approaching through the breath, and can also judge the approximate strength of the target through the strength of the breath.
The accuracy of this kind of breath sensing is highly related to the distance. The closer the distance, the more accurate it is, and the farther the distance, the blurr it becomes.
When he was in Tianshu City, Liu Qi judged that Yang Lu was a monk in the early stages of Qi refining through his aura.
Although Yang Lu has practiced the most powerful heaven-level technique of spiritual consciousness, he is currently only at the first level of Qi refining. He can only vaguely feel a strange aura in the camp of the Guhong Island army, but cannot determine the specific location of the other party.
Strength, and Lin Dong is a sixth-level Qi Refining monk, so his senses are obviously more sensitive.
Hearing Lin Dong's statement, Yang Lu couldn't help frowning and said: "Could this person have cast a spell to hide his aura?"
"Impossible!" Lin Dong's answer was categorical, without any hesitation, "I have practiced the heaven-level technique "Infinite Heart Sutra", and ordinary breath concealment methods are completely useless to me. What's more, the spiritual energy on the outlying island is thin, and the consumed spiritual energy has nowhere to go.
In addition, if Tian Beixi continues to activate the hidden aura spell, without me taking action, her spiritual energy reserves will be completely exhausted within two days at most. Unless she is a foundation-building monk with four golden wheels of merit, she can bear such consumption.
!”
Hearing that the technique Lin Dong practiced was the "Infinite Heart Sutra", Yang Lu's heart moved slightly. According to Li Qingning, "The Infinite Heart Sutra - From Beginner to Mastery" is a brand new version of the "Infinite Heart Sutra" that has been modified by Governor Lu Yang
.
In this way, the two people's skills are from the same origin!
Looking at the Guhong Island army that was unable to retreat, Han Fulai said with a gloomy expression: "It seems that Tian Beixi is not willing to expose her trump card easily. Then we will besiege her for two days first. If the situation does not change, we may have to trouble Lin.
The Immortal Master took action himself!"
Lin Dong smiled proudly and said: "Okay, let this witch live for two more days!"
While the senior officials of the Haiya Fleet were collectively observing the enemy's situation, Tian Beixi was also quietly observing the Haiya Fleet.
Since there was no trace of the Haiya Fleet, even Tian Beixi was a little uneasy. Now that she saw the huge Haiya Fleet appearing in front of her eyes, she finally felt relieved.
Threats in the open are always easier to deal with than threats hidden in the dark!
Seeing the Haiya Fleet parked quietly on the distant sea, loomingly obscured by sea fog, Tian Beixi asked a sinister man wearing gorgeous armor beside him: "Master Shi Island, why did the Haiya Fleet arrive so late?
Come on, what have they been doing these past few days, have your scouts found out?"
The person Tian Beixi was questioning was none other than Shi Yi, the current lord of Guhong Island.
This person used to be a confidant of the former lord of Guhong Island. When Tian Beixi came across the sea alone and attempted to lead the army of Guhong Island to unify the outlying island, the original lord of Guhong Island was not willing to start the war lightly, and even did not agree to use the divine fire.
Sect's merchant ships carrying gunpowder were put into the outlying island area, so Tian Beixi and Shi Yi launched a rebellion, got rid of the original lord of Guhong Island, and supported Shi Yi, who had fully turned to the Shenhuo Sect, as the new lord of Guhong Island.
Due to the reputation of being a regicide traitor, Shi Yi's ruling foundation is quite unstable. He relies entirely on Tian Beixi and the prestige of the Shenhuo Sect behind her to barely secure his position as the lord of Guhong Island. As Tian Beixi leads the army, he successively gains
After victory, Tian Beixi's prestige increased steadily. Ordinary Guhong Island soldiers had long regarded Tian Beixi as the real lord, and regarded Shi Yi as Tian Beixi's subordinate.
