Crossing to Douqi Continent and walking sideways

Since Xiao Muchen broke through to the semi-saint realm and was awarded the title of "Star Saint", Lingyun Sect instantly became the focus of attention from all sides. The surrounding sects, big and small, sent envoys with generous gifts to congratulate. On the surface, they were blessing, but in fact, they were more or less afraid. After all, Lingyun Sect now has another semi-saint, and the overall strength has been greatly improved. No one dares to offend him easily, and it may be possible to gain some benefits by getting close to him as soon as possible.

In Lingyun Sect, the spacious hall was crowded with people, and representatives from various sects gathered together. Xiao Muchen stood at the head of the hall, looking at everyone with a serious and determined expression.

A representative from the Xuanfeng Sect spoke first: "The Dark Alliance is so powerful that even our sects combined would not be able to contend with it!" There was obvious worry and hesitation in his voice.

Xiao Muchen narrowed his eyes slightly and said in a deep voice: "The Dark Alliance is indeed powerful, but not invincible. If we fight alone, we naturally have no chance of winning, but as long as we unite and work together, we will have a chance to defeat them."

At this time, a burly and muscular man from the Yanlei Sect stood up and said loudly: "Although they all have their own ulterior motives, there are many powerful people in their various sects, and most of the elders are six-star to eight-star Dou Zun powerhouses. Not to mention that there is also a hall master of the Xieming Palace, who is a one-star Dou Sheng powerhouse. What can we use to fight against him?" His words were like a heavy hammer, hitting everyone's hearts, making the already shaken people's hearts even more uneasy.

Xiao Muchen took a deep breath, took a step forward, and said loudly: "Everyone, don't be intimidated by their apparent strength. The Dark Alliance seems united, but in fact there are many internal conflicts. They formed an alliance for the sake of interests. Once the interests are unevenly distributed, there will inevitably be disagreements and fights. We can take advantage of this and defeat them one by one."

An old man in a green robe shook his head and said, "That being said, this is only a theoretical possibility. In practice, how easy is it? They won't let us find any loopholes easily."

Xiao Muchen's eyes sparkled as he said, "We don't need to wait for them to reveal their flaws. We can take the initiative to create opportunities. For example, we can spread some false information to cause suspicion and fighting among them. Or, we can target some of their weaknesses and carry out targeted attacks to disrupt their deployment."

Someone else questioned, "Even if we can successfully stir up internal strife among them, they have many strong men. Once they encircle and suppress us, how are we going to deal with them?"

Xiao Muchen looked calm and replied, "Our combined strength should not be underestimated. Moreover, we can arrange fortifications, traps and formations in advance. In battle, we can use tactics flexibly and win with wisdom."

"But once the war breaks out, it will inevitably bring huge casualties and losses. Can our sect afford such a price?" A thin middle-aged man said worriedly.

Xiao Muchen said firmly: "War is never without cost, but if we don't resist now, we will be swallowed up by the Dark Alliance one by one in the future, and then we will lose everything. Instead of sitting and waiting to die, we might as well fight for our sect, for our dignity and future!"

Everyone fell silent, thinking about Xiao Muchen's words.

Xiao Muchen continued, "Think about it, everyone. Wherever the Dark Alliance goes, they burn, kill, rob, and commit all kinds of evil. If we continue to tolerate their evil deeds, our homes will be destroyed and our loved ones will suffer. Do we want to watch all this happen?"

At this time, a young disciple couldn't help but say: "Saint Xiao is right, we can't retreat anymore, we must fight the Dark Alliance to the end!"

Xiao Muchen nodded in approval, and then said, "Moreover, we are not alone. As long as we can show enough determination and strength, we may get support and help from other more powerful forces."

The sturdy man from the Flame Thunder Sect said again: "But all of this is just assumptions and imagination. The real battle is far more cruel and complicated than we imagined."

Xiao Muchen looked at him with a sharp gaze and said, "Yes, fighting is cruel, but if we are afraid and dare not fight, then we will never have a chance to turn things around. We are all practitioners, pursuing justice and truth. Now, the Dark Alliance is an obstacle on our way forward, and we must overcome it!"

The representative of the Xuanfeng Sect said: "Saint Xiao, your courage and determination are admirable, but we need more specific plans and guarantees."

Xiao Muchen smiled slightly and said, "Of course. First, we need to integrate and deploy the strengths of each sect, and form different combat teams based on everyone's specialties and advantages. For example, those who are good at attacking will form the vanguard team, those who are good at defense will form the rear guard team, and those who are good at spells will form the spell support team. In this way, everyone can perform their duties in battle and exert their greatest combat effectiveness."

"Secondly, we need to send smart and reliable spies to infiltrate the Dark Alliance's sphere of influence, closely monitor their movements, and obtain their intelligence in a timely manner. This includes their personnel transfers, action plans, resource reserves, etc. Only by knowing ourselves and the enemy can we seize the initiative in the battle."

"Furthermore, we need to pool the resources of various sects and invite alchemists and weapon refiners to refine more high-level elixirs and powerful magic weapons. These elixirs can quickly restore fighting spirit and heal injuries in battle, and magic weapons can enhance our attack and defense capabilities."

"Also, we need to establish a strict discipline and command system. In battle, you must obey unified command and not act on your own. Otherwise, once chaos occurs, it will give the Dark Alliance an opportunity to take advantage."

"In addition, we need to establish contact with other friendly forces in the surrounding area and seek their support and assistance. Even if they only provide some supplies or intelligence, it will be helpful to our battle."

Everyone listened quietly to Xiao Muchen's detailed plan, and their expressions gradually became determined.

An old man said slowly: "Saint Xiao, you are right. Perhaps this is our only way out."

More and more people are beginning to express their support for uniting against the Dark Alliance.

Seeing that everyone's opinions were gradually unifying, Xiao Muchen was overjoyed and said, "Since everyone agrees to unite, let's start working together and make full preparations for the upcoming battle!"

Everyone nodded, and a joint campaign against the Dark Alliance began.
