"Gentlemen, General Li and his men have sent over some very useful intelligence. Let me tell you about it." Gongliang Juewen looked at Qingxuan and the others, then turned to the eunuch beside him and nodded.

The eunuch stood up and loudly proclaimed, “First, we know the enemy’s name: Blood Slaughter Sect. Even if it’s not the Blood Slaughter Sect, it’s closely related to it. Second, we know that the enemy’s shape-shifting shield is formed by connecting a thousand people with a kind of thread-like magical artifact. Third, a shield composed of a thousand people dares to attack a kingdom-level expert. A kingdom-level expert’s full-force attack cannot break through a shield composed of a thousand people. Fourth, a shield composed of ten thousand people can entangle our large magical artifacts, but it cannot break through the defenses of the large magical artifacts. Fifth, a shield composed of one hundred thousand people can break through the defenses of large magical artifacts and damage them. Sixth, the enemy’s shield cannot use divine light to fly, so its speed cannot match that of magical artifacts that use divine light.” After saying this, the eunuch stepped aside and remained silent.

Gongliang Juewen glanced at everyone and then said, "This intelligence is very important, but I think the most important thing is the first one. We finally know the name of our enemy. For so many years, we have not known the name of our enemy, which is a disgrace to us. Now we finally know. Sect Master Qingxuan, have you ever heard of the Blood Slaughter Sect?"

The Qingxuan Sect Master shook his head and then said, "To be honest, Your Majesty, we also received this intelligence. After receiving it, we immediately had people investigate to see if the Blood Slaughter Sect existed. Unfortunately, we found nothing at all, not even a trace of information about the Blood Slaughter Sect. This can only mean that either the Blood Slaughter Sect does not exist at all, or it is a newly established sect. Either way, it shows that the sect's origins are extremely mysterious."

Gongliang Juewen didn't disbelieve them. He said in a deep voice, "After receiving this intelligence, I also organized people to investigate, but we found nothing. It seems that the Blood Slaughter Sect is a newly established sect. But what I'm more curious about is where this sect came from and why they are so strong?"

Everyone fell silent. In fact, it wasn't just the Sect Alliance and the Royal Family that were investigating this matter; the Aristocratic Family Alliance had also investigated, but of course, they hadn't found anything either, which was why they had such expressions.

At this moment, Wan Hai spoke up: "Your Majesty, I wonder if the enemy is deliberately creating a diversion?"

Gongliang Juewen was somewhat surprised to hear this, and he looked at Wan Hai and asked, "What are your thoughts, my dear minister?"

Wan Hai said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty, please don't forget that when the enemy was operating outside, they used the name of the Myriad Laws Divine Sect, and they did it quite convincingly. Now that they've changed their name, could it be that they want us to forget about the Myriad Laws Divine Sect? This Blood Slaughter Sect's appearance is too strange. They seem to have suddenly appeared, but ordinary sects don't have this ability. Ordinary sects need to develop, they need territory, they need people, but the Blood Slaughter Sect didn't seem to have any of these before. To be able to create a force from nothing to something, from weak to strong, without needing much territory or people, and to infiltrate other forces, such an organization, as it stands, can only be done by those religious sects." The Creation God Cult developed extremely rapidly. Because of their divine connections, these cults could transform their members into kingdom-level experts in a short period. They could mass-produce pseudo-kingdom-level experts, but if their gods were willing to invest, they could create true kingdom-level experts capable of further cultivation. Now that we know this enemy is called the Blood Slaughter Sect, could it be that they deliberately used that name to mislead us? Their true identity is actually a cult, perhaps called the Myriad Laws Cult, or some other cult. After all, only a cult could have grown to this level so silently and without fanfare.

Upon hearing his words, Gongliang Juewen and the others all frowned. It wasn't that Wan Hai was wrong, but rather that he made a lot of sense. However, this left them confused once again. They had finally learned that the other party was called the Blood Slaughter Sect, but after Wan Hai's analysis, it seemed that calling them the Myriad Laws Divine Sect was more reliable.

Wan Hai glanced at everyone and then said, "Your Majesty, no matter what their name is, I think we must treat them as a sect. If we really treat them as a sect, then we must be careful when we attack. They may have the ability to mass-produce pseudo-kingdom level experts, and this ability is very troublesome."

Gongliang Juewen and the others' expressions changed completely. Qingxuan said, "Patriarch Wan is right. We really forgot about this before. Now it seems that we must remind the people on the front line. If the enemy really has the ability to mass-produce pseudo-kingdom level experts, then could their small-scale transformation shields threaten our large magic weapons? If that's the case, then we must be careful when they attack the Blood Slaughter Sect next time."

Gongliang Juewen nodded and said, "That's right, we should indeed remind General Li and the others." Qingxuan continued, "In these two operations, we have gained the upper hand, destroying their main grain-producing areas and their main medicinal herb-producing areas. However, this has also made them feel threatened. I think they will definitely retaliate, and this time the retaliation will not be as easy as before. If they can really mass-produce pseudo-kingdom-level experts, then they can completely send those pseudo-kingdom-level experts into our underground space. Although those pseudo-kingdom-level experts are no match for real kingdom-level experts, they have a lot of people. If those pseudo-kingdom-level experts attack our ordinary disciples, they will still have an absolute advantage. So we must guard against this."

At this moment, a minister spoke up: "What if they don't mass-produce pseudo-kingdom level experts, and continue to retaliate in the same way as before?"

Wan Hai then interjected, "If they really retaliate as before, then we'll continue our attack. I think this time we can try a different approach."

He paused here, glanced at everyone, and then continued, "For example, this time we won't use large magical artifacts for the attack. Instead, we'll have everyone disperse and infiltrate the areas occupied by the Blood Slaughter Sect. As long as we encounter someone, we'll kidnap them. We currently have over 100 million people on the front lines. If everyone can kidnap one person, that's over 100 million people. This way, we can actually kidnap even more people. If we do this a few times, I don't believe those people from the Blood Slaughter Sect will be able to remain calm. They will definitely create a large number of pseudo-kingdom level experts. Then we can teach them a lesson."

Gongliang Juewen nodded and said, "When we were building the underground space, we planned to set up defensive and illusionary arrays there. Their transformation shields wouldn't work underground, but our arrays would still be usable. That way, their biggest advantage would be gone. Even if they turned those people into pseudo-kingdom level experts, once they entered our arrays, their energy would be slowly consumed by them. And once those pseudo-kingdom level experts' power was exhausted, their lifespan would also be reduced. We can use this method to deplete their life force."

Everyone nodded. They had indeed built magic arrays in the underground space when they were expanding it. However, the construction of these magic arrays took time. They had been building those magic arrays for a while, and now that they were finally about to be completed, Wan Hai dared to come up with that idea.

Qingxuan said, "I think it's too dangerous to let those people directly enter the area occupied by the Blood Slaughter Sect to kidnap people. Our losses could be huge. After all, our previous two attacks have made the Blood Slaughter Sect aware of our purpose. They will definitely make corresponding arrangements. If we really send people into that area in a scattered manner, the losses may be considerable. We can make some arrangements to reduce casualties."

Upon hearing this, Gongliang Juewen and the others all looked at Qingxuan. Qingxuan looked at Gongliang Juewen and the others, and then said, "We can use this combined method to have some people attack one of their areas to attract their attention, and then have the others sneak in to kidnap people. They will definitely be wary of our large magical artifacts, but when we don't use large magical artifacts and instead have those people sneak in to kidnap people directly, they probably won't notice at first. By the time they notice, our people should be back by then. What do you all think?"

Everyone nodded, and Gongliang Juewen also nodded and said, "This method is good, but it can probably only be used once. If it can only be used once, then can we make the most of this method?"

Upon hearing Gongliang Juewen's words, Wan Hai was taken aback for a moment, but then he immediately understood Gongliang Juewen's meaning. He looked at Gongliang Juewen and said, "Does His Majesty mean to send reinforcements to the front lines once again?"

Gongliang Juewen nodded and said, "We have the upper hand at the front lines right now, but we can only use our tactics once. The enemy won't fall into the same trap twice. So why don't we maximize this method from the start? For example, we can send some people to distract them, but at the same time, we need to leave some people behind to hold the line. This way, we'll have fewer people to infiltrate that area and kidnap. If we reinforce the front lines, the number of kidnappers will increase, allowing us to kidnap more people at once. By the way, while kidnapping, we can also sabotage their territory—their food supplies, medicine gardens, and mines—destroy them all and see what they do then. What do you all think?"
