Chapter 584: Attacking the city is inferior, attacking the heart is superior

Ye Hui, a Disciple of the Sword Hall of Zilin Holy Land, was a Nascent Soul Realm Cultivator.

The Sword Hall of Zilin Holy Land was not particularly powerful.

Actually, the sword techniques of Zilin Holy Land were more suited for women’s cultivation.

Although there was no problem for men to cultivate them, Ye Hui always felt something was not quite right during practice.

Therefore, for a long time afterward, Ye Hui also fell into a Bottleneck.

Until one day, Lin Xun gave a lecture to all the Cultivators of the Glimmer Alliance at Zilin Holy Land!

Although Lin Xun used spear techniques, a spear-wielding Cultivator giving a lecture on the Dao of the Sword would inevitably raise doubts.

But since he was free that day anyway, Ye Hui felt it wouldn’t hurt to listen.

After all, this was a lecture by the first Spirit Refining Realm Cultivator of the Human Race; ordinary people wouldn’t even get the chance to hear it.

And it was this one listening session that completely opened the door to a new world of the Dao of the Sword for Ye Hui!

The Dao of the Sword that Lin Xun spoke of was extremely novel and profoundly deep.

No nonsense at all, it was all pure substance!

The content was so substantial that if one wasn’t a sword-practicing Cultivator, they wouldn’t even understand a single sentence!

When Lin Xun finished, many Sword Cultivators raised their hands to ask questions, and Lin Xun answered them all patiently.

However, there were simply too many people asking questions, and Ye Hui didn’t get a turn for a while.

At that time, Ye Hui had many questions about the Dao of the Sword in his heart.

But he just wasn’t chosen to have his questions answered.

Ye Hui didn’t blame Lin Xun.

What right did he have to blame him?

The man was giving a lecture, and everything he said was extremely useful insights into the Dao of the Sword, his own personal understanding of the Dao of the Sword!

Being able to hear Lin Xun’s lecture was already extremely lucky.

Furthermore!

There were simply too many Sword Cultivators asking questions; over four thousand Sword Cultivators came to listen, and over three thousand people asked questions!

It was normal not to be chosen.

“Forget it, listening to Alliance Leader Lin answer others is also fine; I’ve gained something as well.”

Just as Ye Hui thought this Dao of the Sword lecture was about to end and was comforting himself, Lin Xun announced that this Dao of the Sword teaching session would last for seven days and seven nights!

During those seven days and seven nights, Ye Hui was finally chosen and asked all his questions about the Dao of the Sword.

And Brother Lin also explained things to Ye Hui for two hours!

And he even praised Ye Hui for asking very good questions.

After that, Ye Hui went into seclusion.

When Ye Hui emerged from seclusion, he had entered the Nascent Soul Realm!

Moreover, Ye Hui felt that the Nascent Soul Realm was not his end!

He even had hopes for the Yupu Realm!

In the past, this was absolutely something he wouldn’t even dare to think about.

And all of this stemmed from Lin Xun’s lecture.

After Ye Hui came out of seclusion, he also learned that Lin Xun gave lectures every day, covering all sorts of subjects.

He would even lecture on the Dao of Assassination!

It could be said that within the Glimmer Alliance, seventy percent of the people had basically heard Alliance Leader Lin’s lectures!

As for the other thirty percent, either it wasn’t their field yet, or they were Cultivators from the Medicine King Valley or Tianji City.

There was really no way around that.

And it was understandable.

If Alliance Leader Lin even understood pharmacology and Astrology, that would be far too Heaven-Defying.

In a certain sense, Alliance Leader Lin was already like another Master to many people.

Even if Alliance Leader Lin didn’t officially take Disciples, in reality, many people already respected him as they would a Master.

In many people’s eyes, Lin Xun was already equivalent to their most admired idol!

Ye Hui was one of them.

Towards Lin Xun, Ye Hui always felt a sense of adoration!

Consequently, when Lin Xun reformed the Disciples of the Glimmer Alliance, Ye Hui, in order to get closer to his idol, participated in the selection and eventually became a Commander.

This time, knowing he was going to attack Divine Dragon Valley, Ye Hui was both nervous and happy.

Because Ye Hui knew that not everyone was qualified to attack Divine Dragon Valley!

So!

For Alliance Leader Lin to choose him was his good fortune!

This was the best opportunity to show his worth! It was also the best chance to leave a deep impression on Alliance Leader Lin’s mind!

He would certainly not fail to live up to Alliance Leader Lin’s expectations of him.

On the day of the attack on Divine Dragon Valley, Ye Hui led his subordinates to the Dead Dragon Bridge!

Dead Dragon Bridge was the only passage connecting to Divine Dragon Valley.

However, for Cultivators, having a bridge or not was basically the same.

After all, Cultivators could fly.

Wars between Cultivators were actually much simpler than battles between Mortals!

And much simpler at that!

Battles between Mortals required attention to many things.

But for Cultivators, wars between them were significantly simpler.

The most important point was strength!

As long as one had enough strength, everything else was easy.

If there was a large disparity in strength, no matter how good your schemes were, they would be of no use.

The Glory Regiment led by Ye Hui was very close in combat power to the defenders of Divine Dragon Valley.

At this time, one had to pay a little attention to strategy.

Ye Hui first had five hundred Cultivators from his side carry out a feint attack!

While the attention of the Divine Dragon Valley Cultivators was fully drawn by these five hundred Cultivators,

Ye Hui then deployed the First Heavy Artillery Group to bombard them!

The First Heavy Artillery Group was actually Cultivators who were extremely skilled in long-range Spells; they hid in the rear chanting Spells to besiege the city!

But this was still far from enough.

Ye Hui also prepared many Cultivators to dig tunnels.

Ye Hui’s strategy did indeed cause quite a bit of trouble for those Cultivators of Divine Dragon Valley.

However, the opponent countered all the moves Ye Hui made.

The general defending Divine Dragon Valley was no fool; he knew very clearly what he should and should not do!

Right now, clashes must be happening elsewhere, and as long as he held Divine Dragon Valley, everything would basically be fine.

In other words, he just needed to stall for time.

After two days, they hadn’t captured it.

Ye Hui was already getting a bit anxious.

But the more it came to this point, the more Ye Hui knew he had to stay calm.

“Attacking the city is inferior, attacking the heart is superior!”

Suddenly, a phrase Lin Xun had said before came to Ye Hui’s mind!
