Chapter 587: Fire Phoenix Clan (Seeking Subscriptions and Monthly Votes)
"Friends, do you have any good strategies?"
In the central position, Liu Yu glanced around and spoke.
In this world, the left side is esteemed, and on his left sat High Sword Cold and Mu Yunyan, while on his right was Zhuo Mengzhen.
Although everyone was well aware of the relationship between the two on the left, they still followed the seating order based on strength.
Liu Yu didn’t want to break the rules over such trivial matters; it was unnecessary.
Upon hearing his words, the few of them exchanged glances, looking at each other and shaking their heads in silence.
The formulation of any strategy relies on critical information, and currently, they only had a vague understanding of the demonic forces in the Starfire Mountain Range, making it impossible to come up with a good plan.
Or rather, they didn't dare to create a plan recklessly.
After all, any mistake could endanger their lives; over the past fifteen years, they had already suffered in this regard.
If it weren't for Liu Yu's last-minute intervention, their team would have been annihilated long ago.
Although he had anticipated this, Liu Yu still felt a tinge of disappointment at this scene, shaking his head slightly, he said:
"Since that's the case, let's follow the usual practice and gather information in this area for a period before making a plan."
After speaking, he stood up and walked outside first to collect information on the demonic beasts.
High Sword Cold, Mu Yunyan, and Zhuo Mengzhen also stood up in succession, activating their magical treasure, the "Azure Soul Veil," to follow behind.
As they traversed the Transverse Mountain Range, the information provided by the Seven Nations Alliance became increasingly scarce, or there were no records at all.
Naturally, Liu Yu and the others couldn’t charge recklessly without any knowledge.
So, spending some time to gather information and understand the patterns of the demonic beasts and demonic cultivators became routine for them.
The four of them had become quite proficient at this.
Of course, even if they understood the information and formulated a suitable plan, various unexpected situations could still arise along the way.
Over the past fifteen years, they had encountered emergencies numerous times, barely managing to get through each time, stumbling their way to the Starfire Mountain Range.
The dangers they faced were truly unspeakable.
It was precisely these life-and-death crises, constantly teetering on the edge of demise, that even the steadfast golden core cultivators had their convictions shaken.
After all, demonic cultivators were not like demonic beasts; they possessed high intelligence and could think. Once they discovered the presence of Liu Yu and his group, they devised various plans to surround and lure them into traps.
Under the system of the "Royal Court," orders were passed down layer by layer, able to mobilize demonic cultivators at every blockade, making every step difficult for the four.
So far, Liu Yu and his group had passed through thirty-six blockade lines, with the journey becoming increasingly arduous.
This was because the demonic forces were paying more and more attention to them.
Some of the earlier blockade lines, even with orders from the "Royal Court," the demonic cultivators might not take the news seriously for various reasons, giving the four some opportunities.
However, as they got closer to the "Annan Protectorate," the attention of the demonic cultivators increased significantly, and they began to respond seriously.
Among the blockade lines, previously hostile demonic beast groups even began to show cooperation.
As for gathering information, the duration varied.
Some blockade lines had weaker demonic cultivators, which meant fewer concerns for the group, and the chances of being discovered dropped significantly.
If discovered, they could even force their way through or directly "kill the beasts to silence them," just like what happened in the Crimson Blood Marsh.
