Chapter 288 He's not stupid!

Tang San's eyes flashed. "Perhaps we can try a war of attrition."

"A tug-of-war?" Xiaobai tilted his head back, looking like he didn't quite understand.

Tang San smiled and explained, "Little Bai, don't forget, I can fly, but the Demon Orca can't."

"Therefore, as long as you can lead the fastest members of your tribe to lure them out of the sea, the demonic orca pod will inevitably break up its formation due to differences in swimming speed during the ensuing chase. In fact, if you pretend to break up your formation and flee, they will even spread out and pursue you."

"This gives me an opportunity to launch a surprise attack from the air. This is called defeating them one by one."

"Divide and conquer!?" Xiao Bai's eyes lit up.

"That's right." Tang San nodded. "The Demon Orca King is unaware of my existence, so as long as I don't reveal myself beforehand, it will only make its deployments based on the current situation of your species."

"Little White, didn't you say before that in previous battles, it took two of your clansmen to fight one of them to a draw? With that as a precedent, I estimate that if you spread out in groups of two, the Demon Orca will likely stick to its old ways and only send two clansmen to pursue you, at most no more than three."

"And my existence is the point that breaks the balance. With my power, if I were to use the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul to launch an attack, I think anyone with less than 100,000 years of cultivation would be severely injured, even if they didn't die, if they were hit head-on."

"The tide of battle will turn immediately afterward."

"By then, we'll be able to outnumber them and take them down one by one, and then launch a final offensive to annihilate them all," Xiaobai said excitedly.

"Not bad." Tang San nodded.

"The key is how to draw them out, and then divide the battlefield to create opportunities for my entry."

"Leave this to me!" Xiaobai immediately assured him, then praised, "Tang San, I didn't expect you to be so clever."

Tang San smiled. These tactics had precedents in historical wars passed down from his previous life; he was merely borrowing them.

"I'll go gather the tribe right away." Little White hurriedly sank into the sea.

"They're not stupid," the Sea God in the divine realm frowned slightly. "How can they get so easily stuck on personal feelings?"

Before long, one after another, the Demon Soul Great White Sharks emerged from the sea.

"Tang San, come on my back, I'll take you there," Xiao Bai, who was at the front of the line, said.

The Great White Shark Swarm of Demon Souls is a mortal enemy of her clan, and Tang San's proposed tactics have the potential to help her destroy them. She feels she can give Tang San face.

"That will be troublesome." Tang San laughed and jumped onto Xiao Bai's back.

"Let's go!" Xiaobai called out, leading her people to swim quickly into the distance, discussing details with Tang San along the way.

The Demon Soul Great White Shark and the Evil Demon Orca have been sworn enemies for years and naturally know each other very well, as Tang San is also well aware of. Furthermore, although the assessment content wasn't explicitly stated, as the former mount of the Sea God, there was some sentiment involved. If the Demon Soul Great White Shark swarm suffered too many casualties due to his command, it might affect the assessment rewards. Therefore, he didn't intend to serve as the overall commander; acting as a henchman would suffice.

The tactics were determined by Xiaobai, so even if problems arose along the way, he wouldn't be the one at fault.

Inheriting the position of the Sea God is the key to his revenge against Long Yingtian and the Illusionary Beast Sect; he cannot afford any mistakes!

After a long while, Xiaobai called for his people to stop and explained, "Tang San, we are now only about twenty miles away from them."

"Although the Demon Orca King is despicable, I have to admit that it is extremely powerful."

"If we go any further, it might sense our mental fluctuations."

"Alright." Tang San nodded. "Then let's split up here."

As it spoke, it stretched out its four wings, and with a single step, it soared into the sky.

Little White let out a soft cry, summoning the eight strongest members of the tribe to dive underwater. They then split into two groups, while Little White went alone, scattering towards the territory of the Demon Orca pod to encircle them. Their strategy was simple: fight fewer enemies and run more.

"How dare you!" Not long after, the Demon Orca King sensed something.

"Hmph, you want to gang up and ambush me? Today, I, the king, will make sure you don't leave alive." After probing the number of Demon Soul Great White Sharks and their encirclement formation, he immediately snorted coldly, then called his clansmen to go and snipe them in groups of three, while he also called for two Little White Sharks to fight back, in order to avoid being surrounded.

The rest of the clan stayed behind to guard the home, to prevent the other, yet-to-be-seen, demonic great white sharks from raiding it.

Each group held an absolute advantage in both numbers and strength, and could evacuate immediately in the event of an emergency. It felt that its arrangement was perfectly sound.

Before long, the Demon Orca King encountered Little White ten miles away from its territory. Little White immediately launched into a verbal attack, saying, "Hmph, Demon Orca King, what kind of skill is it to fight outnumbered? Come out and fight me one-on-one if you dare."

"Heh." The Demon Orca King sneered.

"Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You're only bringing the strongest members of your clan deep into enemy territory. You just want to catch any lone survivors. If you can beat them, you fight; if you can't, you'll use your speed advantage to escape. Such cunning, what kind of skill do you have?"

"You who defile the sea, die!" Xiao Bai immediately used a ranged soul skill to attack. "Since you're here today, I'll take a piece of your flesh to comfort my brother's spirit in heaven."

"Then let's see if you have the ability." The Demon Orca King sneered, then roared softly.

"Surround her and tear her to pieces!"

"Roar!" With a roar, it led two of its clansmen to scatter and attack Xiaobai.

Xiao Bai immediately turned around and adopted a pulling tactic, leading the Demon Orca King further away.

Meanwhile, in the opposite direction from Little White, on the other side where the distance had gradually increased to more than 20 miles, two Demon Soul Great White Sharks encountered three Demon Orcas.

After a feint attack, it turned and swam towards the surface of the water, further increasing the distance between itself and the water.

Without hesitation, the three evil orcas gave chase, and both sides soon surfaced.

Tang San, who was flying high in the sky, sneered. Judging from the splashes of water rising from the sea below due to the battle, and the location of the demonic tiger whale chasing out of the sea, each of them was less than 15 miles away from the territory of the demonic tiger whale, which is a radius of 15 miles.

This also means that, in terms of diameter, they have already separated from the Demon Orca King by 30 miles. Undoubtedly, this is far beyond the Demon Orca King's perception range.

"It's my turn." With a flash of his eyes, Tang San immediately flapped his wings and flew towards the group of Demon Soul Great White Sharks furthest from Xiao Bai. On the way, he summoned his Clear Sky Hammer martial soul, activating its soul bone skill to empower himself, transforming into a black streak of light as he plummeted towards the largest of the group—a Demonic Tiger Whale. Based on the identification method Xiao Bai had given him, its age had reached 70,000 years.

"Roar!" Knowing the plan, the Demon Soul Great White Shark, which had been observing the sky, spotted Tang San immediately and turned to face the Demonic Tiger Whale. According to the plan, it had to restrain the Demonic Tiger Whale when necessary, interfering with its perception and creating opportunities for Tang San.

Three against two is naturally at a significant disadvantage. They were outmatched as soon as they started fighting and were bitten in the process.

Tang San also arrived.

"Boom!" The hammer struck the largest demonic orca on the head, producing a piercing sound of bones cracking.

Without the slightest delay, Tang San immediately turned around and charged towards another restrained demonic orca, smashing its fin with a hammer and knocking it back on the spot.

The situation reversed instantly, and the other orca realized the problem and quickly dived down.

Tang San instantly switched to the Blue Silver Grass martial soul.

"First Soul Skill, Entanglement!"

Multiple vines extended and burrowed into the sea, binding the diving demonic killer whales, including the other two injured demonic killer whales.

The next second, the sixth spirit ring under his feet lit up, and he took a deep breath.

Having waited in the air for so long, he had also suffered some losses. In order to prepare for the upcoming battle, he needed to take this opportunity to replenish his soul power.

"Roar!" The two demonic great white sharks seized the opportunity and bit down hard on the demonic killer whale's vulnerable blowhole.

Creak, creak, the vines were also drilling into the breathing holes.

The one with its skull shattered was surrounded and quickly lost its ability to fight back. The remaining two broke free of the vines and struggled to dive, but were soon overtaken by the faster Demon Soul Great White Shark. Due to injuries to their breathing holes, which severely hampered their movement, they ultimately succumbed to their injuries and were on the verge of death.

After being violently rammed by two demonic great white sharks, it quickly surfaced.
