Chapter 77: Sneak Attack

"Three?"

"Yes! Moreover, I also plan to leave some early-stage and mid-stage Origin Elixir cultivators dispersed throughout the crucial routes to anticipate Su Zhan's movements in advance and facilitate our response!" Yun Hengtian smiled, "Only then can we ensure that nothing goes wrong!"

A Origin Elixir cultivator said, "If we want to ensure nothing goes wrong, why not kill Su Zhan first and then attack the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect?"

"That approach would backfire!" Yun Hengtian shook his head, "When our four major forces gather with such a commotion, do you really think we can go unnoticed?"

"It won't be long before the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect becomes vigilant and discovers our plans!"

"By then, the Sword Sect will join forces with the royal family of the Xia Kingdom, and Su Zhan will guard the imperial palace of the Flower Moon Kingdom without leaving. We won't be able to kill Su Zhan or destroy the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect!"

"Now that we have gathered together, this is the best opportunity, and we must not delay! Time is of the essence!"

"Sect Master Yun's words make sense!"

"Since it was decided before that Yun Hengtian would lead us, we will follow your instructions on this mission!"

"Sect Master Yun, please tell us about the detailed arrangements!"

The Origin Elixir cultivators looked towards Yun Hengtian.

Yun Hengtian nodded, "This Su Zhan is extremely dangerous. My plan is to leave behind three late-stage, three mid-stage, three early-stage Origin Elixir cultivators, and fifty Martial Masters. This will ensure that no mistakes occur."

"So many?"

The leader of the Treasure Mountain Sect hesitated, "Our four major forces have a total of only forty-six Origin Elixir Realm cultivators and three hundred Martial Masters gathered this time. Leaving such a large force here, how can we attack the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect"

"Brother Wu, rest assured. Before this mission, I had already figured out how to break the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect's Mountain guarding Great Sword Formation. With the influence of that formation greatly weakened, how can the Sword Sect withstand our joint forces?" Yun Hengtian said, "As for the specific candidates to intercept Su Zhan"

He glanced at the Origin Elixir cultivators and then looked at those belonging to his own Clear Sun Sect. He continued, "Su Zhan is an extremely dangerous person. Since this attack on the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect and the assassination of Su Zhan are initiated by me, I will assign this perilous task to the members of my Clear Sun Sect!"

"Elder Xu, Elder Ye, Elder Guan, the three of you will be responsible for this operation. As for the subsequent candidates, you can choose them yourselves!"

"We will not disappoint the Sect Master's expectations!" The three elders in the late-stage Origin Elixir Realm responded solemnly.

But the people from the other three major forces didn't cheer at this sight. Instead, they wore displeased expressions.

"Sect Master Yun, are you taking us for fools with your actions?"

Elder Yue of the leading family of the Eastern Ridge Kingdom, had a gloomy expression. "Who doesn't know that Su Zhan is only at the martial master realm, but his talent is unparalleled, and he surely possesses numerous rare treasures. This kind of mediocre strength but wealthy target has, in your words, turned into something extremely dangerous?"

Yun Hengtian's expression turned grim, "Although I cannot confirm the true reason behind the spiritual disturbance in the Flower Moon Kingdom, I speculate that it was caused by Su Zhan condensing Origin Elixir. At this point, Su Zhan is highly likely to be a Origin Elixir Realm cultivator!"

"A Origin Elixir Realm cultivator?" The Elder from the Yue family sneered, "So what? The disparities between each small realm in the Origin Elixir Realm are vast. Take Li Changxing, for example. Even he, in the face of a late-stage Origin Elixir Realm cultivator, would only end up defeated!"

"Su Zhan has just condensed Origin Elixir, without even purging the impurities. His strength can only be exerted to about seventy percent. Even if he possesses a divine body and extraordinary talent, he can only be abnormal to the extent of confronting and perhaps defeating late-stage Origin Elixir Realm cultivators!"

"But with the presence of three late-stage, as well as mid-stage and early-stage, a total of nine Origin Elixir Realm cultivators, and the assistance of formations, not to mention our pre-emptive ambush, we have calculated every possibility. In this situation, even if you, Master Yun, are surrounded, there is a risk of falling, let alone that Su Zhan!"

"The way Sect Master Yun has arranged this is simply to monopolize this fat sheep!"

This statement immediately sparked agreement.

"Brother Yue is right! Sect Master Yun is being unfair!"

"We considered Sect Master Yun a friend, but he treats us like fools. Haha!"

"If it's so dangerous, how can we let the members of your esteemed sect be in danger? My Treasure Mountain Sect is willing to take on this risk!"

"Nonsense! Such an extremely dangerous task should be assigned to my Yellow Wind Valley!"

"The experts from my Yue family are also extremely suitable!"

Voices rose one after another. Everyone argued fiercely over who would intercept Su Zhan.

As Origin Elixir Realm cultivators, they were not fools. The Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect had Qin Jincheng, Chen Changfeng, and a hundred thousand disciples of the Sword Sect, as well as various sword formations It was a dangerous situation!

Moreover, even if they breached the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect, with so many people, it was uncertain whether they could seize the most valuable treasures. But Su Zhan, a genius who had just broken through to the Origin Elixir Realm What was the difference between him and a fat sheep?

Such thoughts ran through the minds of those high ranking cultivators, and they argued fervently, their faces turning red.

"Enough!"

Yun Hengtian glanced angrily at those people. "All of you are strong individuals from your respective kingdoms, yet you argue like street vendors. Is this how you maintain your dignity?"

"Since you all disagree with my choice of candidates, let your three major forces discuss it among yourselves. My Clear Sun Sect will not participate!"

"Of course, after we breach the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect, I will be the first to choose the Sect's treasures!"

"No problem!" The leaders of the three major forces exchanged glances and nodded.

Not long after, the personnel were selected, carrying the formation flags bestowed by Yun Hengtian, and headed towards the planned location.

"We must succeed in this endeavor. We cannot afford any mistakes, or else we'll be laughed at by those people!"

"Don't worry. The reason geniuses are called geniuses is because they have not yet earned the title of strong. Su Zhan is no exception!"

"Speaking of which, we are incredibly lucky. We all know how dangerous the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect is. Attacking them is risky and may not bring any benefits. It's much better to wait here and catch the prey off guard! Hahaha!"

The late-stage Origin Elixir experts from the three major forces laughed and relaxed, feeling extremely fortunate.

600 miles away from the border of Xia Kingdom.

In a hilly area.

Su Zhan landed from the sky after controlling his sword, intending to catch a demonic beast to satisfy his hunger.

Although he had an unlimited supply of Qi-gathering pills in his storage ring, he still maintained his daily habits of eating, sleeping, bathing, and brushing his teeth. Furthermore, while the Qi-gathering pills could suppress hunger for cultivators, after a long time, one would still feel a sense of emptiness.

Hmm?

Is there someone here?

After walking a distance in the small forest on the hillside, Su Zhan suddenly felt a sense of being observed. With his highly sensitive spiritual power, he quickly sensed three auras. One at the early stage of the Origin Elixir Realm and two at the Martial Master Realm were slowly approaching from a position roughly a kilometer behind him.

Early stage of the Origin Elixir Realm

Su Zhan smiled faintly, as if he hadn't noticed the three individuals at all, and continued walking forward slowly.

"Elder Li, this person is extremely dangerous. We should inform the others and act separately"

"Inform the others?"

Elder Li, at the early stage of the Origin Elixir, sneered, "Do you know how wealthy this person is? The treasures of the Heavenly Cloud Sword Sect might be on him!"

"Of course, if we engage in a direct confrontation, I would certainly not be his match. However, he is currently completely unaware, and the distance between us is gradually closing. Furthermore, I have a Transformation Talisman' that I've treasured for many years. When the time comes, I will launch a surprise attack from behind and kill him in one strike. What does it matter how strong he is then?"

"But Elder Li"

"Enough. Your cultivation is weak, making you easily detectable. Wait here and witness how I slaughter this fat lamb!" After Elder Li finished speaking, he took out a spiritual talisman and affixed it to his body.
