My Master Knows It All

Chapter 1855: Chapter 409: Invasion of the Infernal Clan’s Minor World (Part 5)

Cao Zhen looked into the void, listening to the person speaking grandly to the crowd, unsure whether it was the Azure Cloud Sect Master or the Truth Seeking Sect Leader. However, the level of the speech was truly poor, lacking both persuasion and any infectious power.

As the person’s words fell silent, the Ghostly Fire Sect Master dressed in black beside him spoke, “The Prison clan can cultivate like our human cultivators and use treasures like us. In their Small World, there must be countless resources and treasures.

As long as we break through the Small World of the Prison clan, whoever can obtain these things can keep them.

The people of our Three Great Sects will stand in the front, and what you need to do is to cast the spells you are most adept at from the rear, to attack the opponents!

Now, invade the Prison clan!”

With the Ghostly Fire Sect Master’s command, he was the first to rise and fly into the vortex. Cao Zhen felt that what the Ghostly Fire Sect Master said was more practical than the previous sect master, and for someone of his status to take the lead into the vortex was not easy.

The people of the Three Great Sects indeed acted as the Ghostly Fire Sect Master described, rushing into the vortex first, which was normal.

If they let these disjointed crowds or scattered people charge in first, there would be no coordination, no formation, and they’d be quickly thrown into chaos by the opponents’ attacks, leaving them in a passive position at the time.

However, not all of the Three Great Sects’ people rushed in.

Quite a few of them stayed at the rear.

Cao Zhen felt that these people were actually like the ancient battlefield’s supervisor teams that would strike down deserters, tasked with preventing them from escaping.

Behind the people of the Three Great Sects was a group wearing the same uniforms, presumably people from nearby sects or forces.

Only after these people entered did it finally come to Cao Zhen and others’ turn to enter the vortex.

Cao Zhen and Frost Fairy, along with four others, flew into the vortex, and with just a breath’s time, he had entered the Small World.

Compared to the world he was in before, this Small World was somewhat darker.

He looked up at the sky, and saw that this world also had a sun, but its light was much dimmer than that of the Central Continent, making this world darker.

At the same time, he observed that most of the plants on the ground were black, with gusts of cold wind blowing from the void, making it feel like an underground world or some legendary hell.

“No Prison clan?”

“Where did the Prison clan go?”

“How come there’s not a single enemy?”

All around Cao Zhen, people stood dumbfounded, staring around. They initially thought that once they entered here, a massive army from the Prison clan would immediately attack, leading to a great battle. But the result was that the Prison clan never appeared.

Beside Cao Zhen, Immortal Zheng Yuan spoke in a low voice, “These Prison clanspeople are not foolish. They probably know we have gathered a large army, so they don’t want to engage us directly.

They know we aim to annihilate them, so they want to use their advantage of terrain to lure us deeper into the Small World.

This is actually an open conspiracy. We want to exterminate them, which will inevitably require us to go deeper, and once we do, our forces will spread out, allowing them to concentrate their strength to defeat us.

And we have no solution for this. If we do not spread out, we won’t be able to find them in such a vast Small World, especially since we are unfamiliar with the terrain.

Then what? Did we come all this way with such a large force, only to leave?”

Fairy Zhengya’s heart stirred as she suddenly asked, “Senior Brother, can we guard outside the vortex? The vortex is not large, and if we guard outside, we will discover them once they leave the Small World.”

“Junior Sister, they are not foolish either. If we have people guarding outside, they simply won’t come out. This is their Small World; they can cultivate or do other things inside, living no differently than usual.

But we are different. We can keep watch for a day, two days, even ten days or half a month without issue.

But can all of us keep guarding indefinitely? Once the numbers guarding outside decrease, they will surely attack and cause chaos everywhere.

That’s why I said it’s an open conspiracy from them. They know we want to exterminate them, so they don’t engage us head-on but aim to stretch out our lines.”

Fairy Zhengya helplessly asked, “So we have no other way?”

Immortal Zheng Yuan shook his head lightly and sighed, “No, we can only be led by the nose.”

Cao Zhen observed the two conversing without speaking. He had earlier thought Immortal Zheng Yuan was somewhat insightful, but his later words greatly disappointed him.

What does it mean to have no way and be led by the nose?

Doesn’t he know there’s something called Military Law?

If others lure the enemy deeper, why can’t they pretend to be fooled? Why can’t they counter-encircle?

There are plenty of strategies that can be used in this situation.

But since he is not the commander here, he does not feel it is appropriate to say much.

As everyone discussed, the voices of the three sect leaders resounded again.

“The Prison clan is clearly avoiding battle, so our strength must surpass theirs. Everyone, charge into this Small World and destroy all the Prison clan!”
