Chapter 761: Chapter 706: Pulling Off a Big Job (Yue Ticket 1500 Bonus Chapter for July)

The first round of the Qingyun Conference, teams of ten each, once it starts, choose a floating island as a base and hold for three days.

During these three days of holding, there are no other requirements, meaning everyone can attack each other and start eliminating others.

And this is just the first three days, there will definitely be other rules later, but they have not been announced at this moment.

Nearly ten thousand Nascent Soul Cultivators are teleported in groups of a hundred to various places in this realm. Before the start, no one can move, they can only spread their Divine Sense as much as possible to quickly explore nearby floating islands and choose suitable terrain to occupy.

But because there are many people, everyone’s views differ, and there’s already the sound of many small disputes starting around.

Even though arguments happen, most people still communicate with each other through sound transmission to make decisions.

Jiang Yuebai scanned over the people of the Xiong Family and the Heavenly Star Sect, they were surprisingly silent and quiet.

On the Zhuge Family’s side, Zhuge Ziyin, being the highest in cultivation among the ten, had been chosen as the leader before coming in, so even if the Zhuge Family had ideas and opinions, at this moment they all looked to Zhuge Ziyin, waiting for his orders.

"Little Bai, I’ll listen to you."

Hearing Lu Nanzhi’s voice, Jiang Yuebai turned around to look at everyone.

Ge Yuchan and Tang Weimian nodded, indicating their willingness to listen to Jiang Yuebai.

Yuu Qiuqi and Fang Yuxing exchanged a glance, Li Shen Zhi and Shen Huaxi looked thoughtful, Wenn Jian, not being particularly familiar with Jiang Yuebai, just watched and didn’t speak.

Muh Wushuang boldly and softly said, "I suggest not choosing right away, it’s best to kill a batch in the chaos first, what do you think?"

"No way!" Li Shen Zhi retorted irritably, "You haven’t even figured out how capable the opponents are, all you know is to kill all day! Be careful not to end up losing both soldiers and generals!"

At this time, Jiang Yuebai raised her hand, and after a moment’s thought, looked at Shen Huaxi, "You make the arrangements."

Having governed the Extraordinary People Country for many years, Shen Huaxi has faced far more complex situations and circumstances than at this moment. He’ll surely make more thorough plans.

Seeing this, Shen Huaxi did not decline either, first transmitting sound to Jiang Yuebai.

"My suggestion is to split into three teams, one to monitor and disrupt enemies. If someone has the same idea as Junior Sister Wushuang, to attack nearby people in the chaos, we must be prepared."

Jiang Yuebai nodded in agreement.

Shen Huaxi continued to transmit sound, "The second team should look for a foothold, the third team should accumulate power from the moment they start looking, and prepare the Array formation. Once confirmed, the third team will immediately deploy the Great Array and fully support it, while the remaining two teams defend the surroundings until the array is stable."

Jiang Yuebai scanned the surrounding floating islands again. The floating islands are all quite large, and what they face are Nascent Soul Cultivators. Such an impromptu Great Array cannot cover such a large range, nor is it capable of defending against the attacks of many Nascent Soul Cultivators.

Advance preparation is indeed necessary, with many people working together to form a stable Great Array.

Having listened to Shen Huaxi’s suggestion, Jiang Yuebai said to the group, "Huaxi’s arrangements are excellent. For this first round of the Qingyun Conference, I suggest that everyone follow his plan, how about it?"

Everyone exchanged glances, knowing that Sect Master Lii Jiuchuan has valued Shen Huaxi highly over the years, with many matters in the sect being handled with his help. Everyone also understands his past governance of the Extraordinary People Country and respects his ability greatly.

After everyone nodded, Shen Huaxi immediately made arrangements.

The choice of the foothold remained with Jiang Yuebai, as her Divine Sense is the strongest, able to cover a wider range and investigate more thoroughly, allowing her alone to select and avoid the issue of differing opinions causing delays.

Yuu Qiuqi, Fang Yuxing, Shen Huaxi, and Wenn Jian positioned themselves on either side behind Jiang Yuebai, shielding Li Shen Zhi, Muh Wushuang, and Tang Weimian in the middle, so they could focus on the Array formation.

The process of dropping, assembling, activating, and stabilizing the Great Array takes time.

Lu Nanzhi guarded the rear, and Ge Yuchan did not need to stay in the lineup, supporting whichever side had more pressure.

Everyone should avoid getting caught in prolonged combat, strike swiftly and decisively, and hurry to seize the foothold.

Once arranged, everyone was fired up, waiting for the restraints to be lifted.

In the distance, the Zhuge Family had already decided on a strategy. Jiang Yuebai exchanged a glance with Zhuge Ziyin, who gestured in one direction, suggesting an invitation for Jiang Yuebai and her group to join.

Jiang Yuebai smiled and declined, glancing towards another direction.

Having more people can provide mutual support, but can also be a burden in some situations. Not knowing the upcoming rules, it might be better not to gather together at the start. In case the rules later turn them into enemies, it could damage relationships.

Among their batch, besides the Zhuge Family, Xiong Family, Youx Family, Heavenly Star Sect, there were also three sects and two families from the Central Mountain Realm.

The cultivators from the Central Mountain Realm seemed to get along well, having the tendency to stick together, staring at the nearest floating islands with a determined look, secretly releasing pressure to intimidate surrounding cultivators.

The Xiong Family and the Heavenly Star Sect’s twenty Nascent Soul Cultivators exchanged looks filled with murderous intent and hidden schemes.

Jiang Yuebai was on guard, while spreading her Divine Sense to explore further floating islands, transmitting a sound to Lu Nanzhi.

"Anan, shall we make a move?"

Lu Nanzhi looked at Jiang Yuebai, Jiang Yuebai raised an eyebrow, Lu Nanzhi’s eyes brightened, the corner of her lips curling up.

Clang—

The bell suddenly tolled, everyone relaxed as the restraints were lifted.

Before anyone could react, two figures suddenly shot up from the crowd.

Zheng!

Lu Nanzhi drew her sword, the sound of the sword resonating through the sky as the winds rose and clouds surged, Water Strike Three Thousand.

Thousands of swords formed from Xuanming True Water swept across the sky, wave upon wave, filling the heavens like a great tide, roaring at the skies, crashing down upon the twenty Nascent Soul Cultivators from the Xiong Family and Heavenly Star Sect.

The cultivators from the Xiong Family and Heavenly Star Sect originally planned to attack the Heavenly Interence Sect members, but Lu Nanzhi seized the initiative. Facing such a terrifying tide of swords, they were frozen by the domineering cold from the Xuanming True Water, horrified and struggling with all their might to defend and counter.

In an instant, a monstrous blood aura rose from the twenty cultivators, forming into a gigantic and hideous blood-red hand to strike against the sword tide.

Jiang Yuebai, well-prepared, stood by Lu Nanzhi’s side, waved her wide sleeve.

Beiming Fish!

All Water Spirit Energy within a hundred miles was instantly drained, the waterfall and great lake on the nearest island dried up in an instant, gathered by Jiang Yuebai into countless six-legged, six-finned monstrous fish, surrounding and swarming from all directions.

Boom!

Boom!

The fish swarmed upon the blood-colored giant hand first, devouring its power completely, followed by the descending sword tide. The clash of metal sounds accompanied by unending screams, frightening to hear.

The Qingyun Sea below was directly pierced by Lu Nanzhi’s sword tide, revealing a dark, vast starry void.

As the sword tide dissipated, a perfect gap appeared in the crowd, Lu Nanzhi’s control over her technique reached an extraordinary level.

However, four cultivators from the Xiong Family and Heavenly Star Sect vomited blood and flew backward, retreating in panic, Jiang Yuebai glanced at them, but did not pursue.

Haha~

Haha~

The remaining monstrous fish shrieked as they gradually drifted away and disappeared, leaving everyone else petrified, all standing still with wide eyes, unable to believe as they looked at the black and white silhouettes in mid-air, momentarily forgetting what to do.

The two of them, each with one move, albeit a sneak attack, directly eliminated sixteen, this was simply... terrifying!

Jiang Yuebai raised an eyebrow and smiled at Lu Nanzhi, "Well done!"

"Not too shabby yourself!"

Jiang Yuebai glanced at the group from the Central Mountain Realm, who, initially intending to compete for the nearby floating island, dared not move rashly now, fully tense and guarded.

Zhuge Ziyin swallowed hard, and under Jiang Yuebai’s gaze, led the Zhuge Family members away quickly.

"Let’s go!"

Jiang Yuebai tilted her head to the others, leading the way to the pre-investigated direction, everyone only then snapped out of it, Li Shen Zhi being the first to catch up with Jiang Yuebai, following closely and smiling contentedly.

Shen Huaxi surveyed the surroundings, finding no one dared to pursue them, which made him chuckle helplessly. No matter how meticulous the plan, it was insignificant before power.

However, this time it seems they can no longer stay hidden and low-key!
