"We don’t want them to observe?" Yi Jue was slightly taken aback by the question.
Then she stated, "If we can go unnoticed, there won’t be any issue, but now the battle of Xiajing... is of great significance."
The significance means: this is the key point to break the situation, it’s where both the Human Race and the Insect Race are focused on observing.
To make Feng Jun fully understand this, she even added a section, "Just like we encountered the Blue Light Moth in Zuo Jing earlier, does the Blue Light Moth have siege capability? It really doesn’t, but... why would they appear in Zuo Jing?"
Feng Jun detected the hint and couldn’t help but ask aloud, "Are you suggesting... diversion?"
"It should be so, diverting the combat strength of this planet," Yi Jue was actually clueless about racial battleground tactics, but she couldn’t compete against... her brilliant mind, "The attacks are from all sides, so everyone couldn’t spare to support Xiajing."
After a pause, she added another sentence, "I think their primary direction is attacking Xiajing, hence they invited you here."
Indeed, she has been inviting Feng Jun today to not mind the matters in Zuo Jing’s direction.
Feng Jun couldn’t say anything about this, since Yi Jue has been helping him all along, and he’s well aware of it. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
As he’s already in Xiajing, he should focus on solving problems. The scene just now made him feel deeply pained.
Feng Jun considers himself a rational person, although he lives in a peaceful era, as a qualified student of liberal arts, he deeply understands how brutal and... common the massacres one after another were in history.
He couldn’t be like Yi Jue, who could view such massacres with a normal mindset — he actually hasn’t experienced much.
This lack of experience might be good, or it might be bad, there isn’t a standard understanding. But the scene just now really stimulated him, people with more experience might become numb, but hasn’t he ultimately experienced it?
So he felt he should do something, "If we can shield their observation, wouldn’t it be over?"
"Shielding," Yi Jue shook her head with a rueful smile, "Easier said than done, perhaps you’re not quite clear, there’s something called satellite above this planet, observing minutely, leaving you nowhere to hide... and that’s just on the technological side."
Feng Jun nodded, "I know satellites, they are indeed powerful... and then, what else is powerful?"
"Then..." Yi Jue thought carefully and answered in a somber tone, "There are many other powerful things, can we resolve the satellite first?"
"That can certainly be resolved," Feng Jun answered without hesitation, then asked aloud, "In that case, can you take down the Healers?"
"I want to take down the Healers more than you do," Yi Jue replied without hesitation, "If it wasn’t for not wanting to expose my identity, I would’ve wanted to take them down long ago... speaking of auxiliary combat, who can understand more than the Spirit Plant Path?"
Those words... were indeed valid, the systems of Tianqin World and Insect World are entirely different, it’s not just a cultural difference but fundamentally two different cultivation systems.
Tianqin World also has a healer profession, mainly wood and water system cultivators, where the water system mainly handles on-site healing, while the wood system besides on-site healing, also deals with future recuperation and recovery — the wood system represents vitality, the water system is the source of vitality.
However, the Insect Race adopts the Incense Offering Deity System, their healers use Techniques closer to "divine power," thus more effective for quick recovery, not that Tianqin’s recovery technique is lacking.
Feng Jun nodded, "Then do you think on this planet, what level of Rain Prayer Array can make the rain fall without being affected?"
Yi Jue’s eyes brightened upon hearing this, "You mean using the Rain Prayer Array to obscure surveillance? That’s indeed a good idea."
In cultivator’s combat habits, rarely anyone uses auxiliary formations, especially those related to daily life, so this is a novel suggestion, yet Yi Jue instantly grasped the brilliance in it.
Regarding the level of Rain Prayer Arrays, it mainly serves to guard against interference from unexpected situations.
Like the Rain Prayer Arrays set up by Feng Jun in the Earth Realm’s Luohua and Amstan were at Qi Refinement Realm level, whereas some lava lands setting up Rain Prayer Arrays could be Dust Level or even Golden Core level — too little power makes it hard to gather rain clouds.
It must be pointed out that the magnitude of rainfall is not directly related to the level of the Rain Prayer Array, a higher-level Rain Prayer Array is indeed more likely to generate heavy rainfall, but the level itself corresponds to the ability to gather rain clouds.
Yi Jue boldly stated, "I believe it’s best to use a Nascent Soul Level Rain Prayer Array, as the Insect Race uses the Incense Offering Deity System, they should have the ability to interfere with rainfall."
Feng Jun was not surprised by this analysis because in the Incense Offering Deity System, calling wind and rain is the most common means of gathering belief, but the key problem now is, "I don’t have materials for a Nascent Soul Level Rain Prayer Array, do you have any?"
Yi Jue didn’t bring the relevant materials either. In fact, she had a Rain Prayer Array Plate. As an Elder of the Spirit Plant Dao, it was normal to carry such an array plate, but there was no need for it to be too high-level. She originally thought that bringing a Golden Core Level one with her was completely sufficient.
So she immediately used her Divine Sense to contact other fellow disciples, hoping everyone could contribute together and see if they could assemble a formation.
However, it was very unfortunate that no one had brought such a thing, and even Elder Kumu said, "I specifically brought a warship with very strong offensive capabilities, but a Rain Prayer Array... who would have thought of that?"
However, once they understood Yi Jue’s idea, they thought it was a good one and expressed that they could go back to the Spirit Plant Dao to fetch materials — since Feng Jun was around anyway.
But True Immortal Huo Liu bluntly stated, "Even after fetching materials, an array still needs to be arranged, and we also need to worry about it being destroyed. I have a Nascent Soul Level Rain Prayer Array Plate. I trouble Feng Xiaoyou to take me back once."
Huo Liu carried a fire attribute aura. Not discussing the life and restraining relationships with the Spirit Plant Dao cultivation techniques, many times, spirit plants of the fire attribute were collected by him, so he specially commissioned someone to create a Nascent Soul Level Rain Prayer Array Plate.
After this array plate was made, apart from being tested a few times, it had never been used in reality. People from the Spirit Plant Dao would sometimes joke that True Immortal Huo Liu was overthinking, not expecting that it would actually be used today.
Feng Jun took True Immortal Huo Liu away, and to save time, Huo Liu straightforwardly took him directly to his cave mansion.
Feng Jun waited for him not far from the cave mansion, and shortly after, he heard Huo Liu arguing with someone.
The one arguing with True Immortal Huo Liu wasn’t anyone else, but Elder Yu Teng.
It turned out that she sensed Huo Liu’s return and hurried to find him. She also knew he had gone to explore the Insect World, and there was no telling when he would come back next, so she rushed over to get a batch of fire attribute materials from him, which included the Nascent Soul Rain Prayer Array.
She wanted the Rain Prayer Array not for the formation but to dismantle its materials — the existence of this array plate was somewhat redundant.
Huo Liu had a good relationship with Elder Yu Teng, but this time, he straightforwardly stated that the array plate was useful for exploring a new world. This time, he had returned specifically to fetch this array plate.
But why would Elder Yu Teng believe him? She said, "Stop playing these tricks; obviously, it’s a failed product, yet you just can’t let it go."
True Immortal Huo Liu, resigned, could only bring her to find Feng Jun to testify, "Why not ask Mountain Master Feng?"
Elder Yu Teng was also aware of the movements of Feng Jun, Yi Jue, and others, but she herself had no intention to enter the Insect World — she had too many things in hand and couldn’t leave in the short term.
After obtaining the answer from Feng Jun, Elder Yu Teng was still somewhat puzzled, "I understand the reasoning, but this Nascent Soul array plate has not been used thoroughly enough, and you are planning to use it in practice?"
Huo Liu immediately argued, saying that he had tested it many times and there was absolutely no problem. "You simply don’t trust anyone at all."
Feng Jun had also given this issue some thought, so he gently advised, "Reporting to the Elder, because it hasn’t been fully used, it carries less karma associated with Tianqin; using it over there will not need to worry about exposure."
"Karma?" Elder Yu Teng was startled for a moment, then gave him another look and nodded, "You have thought this over carefully."
Because of this debate, Feng Jun and the others were slightly delayed in their return.
After arriving at the outskirts of Xiajing, True Immortal Huo Liu set up a Hidden Formation and began to activate the array plate within it. An inexplicable energy quietly spread, and soon, large masses of dark clouds surged toward the Xiajing area.
The Human Race’s command center quickly noticed this, "There is an abnormal spatial energy fluctuation, and the surrounding clouds appear to be affected and are concentrating toward this area. We have reason to suspect that the Insect Race has developed a new type of meteorological weapon."
However, merely having suspicion was not enough to make the Human Race initiate greater changes. Someone immediately analyzed that the Insect Race might want to use this method to force the Human Race to consume energy.
In other words, the Human Race itself had the ability to deal with abnormal weather and even had its own meteorological weapons, but these measures were very energy-intensive and would require careful consideration, especially in wartime.
In this galaxy, energy was not abundant, and much of it had to be transported from other galaxies. The Vitality Stones from the Eighth Planet provided significant help to the Xingzheng Main Star, but currently, the mining star was embroiled in fierce battles, and the situation was not good.
So, relying on the Vitality Stones from the Eighth Planet was certainly out of the question.
Therefore, although the Xingzheng Main Star was sitting on a large supply of materials, it also couldn’t afford to waste them casually. In comparison, the Seventh Army, which had been complaining bitterly a while ago, was now at the periphery of the galaxy and, after having established contact with black-market traders, was living quite comfortably.
The Human Race’s command center in Xiajing discussed and decided to stay the course and see what the Insect Race planned to do — if it was just wind and rain, it would cause some negative impact on the Human Race, but it would also affect the Insect Race.
After all, many of the Insect Race could fly, and flying and fighting in the rain wasn’t a good experience at all.
