CHAPTER EIGHTY-SIX: Three Star Holy Clan? Star Clan?
“This is a dark forest, and the reason it is called Yin Wind Forest is that there are two large mountains blocking the airflow from the east and west. In front of us, there is a narrow mountain pass; even the slightest breeze makes a loud noise as it rushes through. What is most extraordinary is that from this mountain pass to here, there is a towering Ironwood Forest. As the wind passes through these trees, the sharp branches and leaves react, creating a wailing sound that resembles the cries of ghosts and wolves.”
“In addition, someone must have taken advantage of this natural condition to draw an underground spring from beneath this forest, and it is a hot spring. The steam rises and cannot disperse, so it can only be absorbed within this forest. Over the years, this has resulted in a misty and ethereal woodland!”
“Moreover, there are formations playing a decisive role here!”
Chu Yang expressed this while arranging the strategy. His explanation was even more detailed than that of the few original inhabitants of the middle three days.
This made Gu Duxing and the others feel somewhat embarrassed, and they found it hard to believe: how could the boss, who just arrived, know this place better than they did?
“And all of these are our advantageous conditions! Even if there are some unfavorable conditions, as long as we can make good use of them, they can turn into advantages! Because what is unfavorable to us is equally unfavorable to the enemy! Remember this phrase in any situation!” Chu Yang said calmly.
He was using every moment to instill all his theoretical knowledge into his brothers!
Many of these theories were common sayings. But Chu Yang still insisted on expressing them, and Gu Duxing and the others listened attentively!
Because there are some truths that, when spoken by family or mentors, are far less impactful than when said by someone one truly respects. This is a common psychological state. For example, we all know the saying “You only regret not having enough knowledge when you need it,” but it often takes decades of experience and setbacks before hearing it from someone else for it to truly resonate, allowing one to grasp its true meaning…
Yet, often by that time, decades have already passed!
“In this environment, the most effective way to deal with the Ou Clan is ambush and poison!” Chu Yang said steadily: “Currently, we have set up traps…”
“Wait!” Ji Mo raised his hand, asking with a mix of laughter and helplessness: “Poison? Against the Ou Clan? Boss, what are you thinking? They are already experts in poison!”
“Exactly because even you can’t think of it, the Ou Clan would be even less likely to expect it!” Chu Yang sneered: “They have been famous for their poison for a long time and are usually quite arrogant. So, if others use poison against them, they would be even less prepared than ordinary people! However… what kind of poison can be used without them noticing remains to be pondered.”
Gu Duxing's eyes brightened; he increasingly realized that each step Chu Yang took was not particularly brilliant, but they always ventured into areas others could not foresee!
Just this point alone had already placed them in an invulnerable position.
Using poison against the Ou Clan? Before this, it was likely that no one in the middle three days had ever thought of it.
As Chu Yang spoke, his mind kept pondering what kind of poison could be used against the Ou Clan. Using ordinary poison would only make him a laughingstock; it had to be a type they couldn’t detect. Moreover, it had to be cleverly set up…
“The meat of the Poison Dragon Serpent still has about seven or eight hundred pounds!” Sword Spirit communicated in his mind: “I can refine it into poison… However, this kind of poison… is too domineering. Once used, it is likely that the contaminated area would become a toxic domain for a long time. It would inevitably harm the innocent.”
