Chapter 584: Vow to Live and Die with China
Elder Cang said proudly, "A few years ago, a dragon was crossing the sea and causing trouble along the coast. It was this Five Elements Demon Suppression Formation that stopped it and kept the coast safe. You little girl, you don't know how powerful this formation is, and you're still talking nonsense here!"
Taoist Wang's expression changed instantly: "Elder Cang, this is Taoist friend Shen Wanshen, don't speak so sarcastically, she just-"
Elder Cang interrupted him impatiently: "I know she is Chen Wan, the famous genius master of metaphysics in the Chinese Xuanmen."
"It's really true that meeting someone in person is not as good as hearing about them. What a genius master of metaphysics, a person without vision, nothing more than that!"
Someone from the Xuanmen sect couldn't stand it anymore and reminded Elder Cang: "The matter of Shui Yuansha a few days ago was settled by this Daoist Fellow Shen. Doesn't Elder Cang know her?"
Elder Cang looked Shen Wan up and down with disdain and smiled contemptuously: “If she really wants to deal with it, there is no need to mobilize all the sects now.”
Taoist Wang said sullenly, "Elder Cang, you have lived in the coastal area for a long time, so you must know how powerful the water evil spirit is, right?"
"She just stumbled upon it by mistake." Elder Cang snorted, "If something serious really happens, we will have to rely on our Canghai Sect's Five Elements Demon Suppression Array."
“Yes, yes, the Canghai Sect has guarded the Chinese sea area since ancient times. Compared with Shen Wan, I still believe in the strength of the Canghai Sect more.”
"The Five Elements Demon Suppression Formation is not just a boast. We can't even count how many dragons it has suppressed."
“Chen Wan is good, but she is still a little immature in front of the Canghai Sect, which has a strong foundation and impressive strength.”
Someone stood on Elder Cang's side.
Some people are not convinced.
“Fellow Daoist Shen reversed the conspiracy of the Water Grudge Demon to invade China with her own strength. Her strength is obvious to all!”
“The disciple surpasses the master!”
"Fusang is in civil strife right now, thanks to Fellow Daoist Shen, otherwise the summer festival's soul-calling ceremony alone would have cost us the Huaxia Xuanmen a lot of money!"
"Since the Canghai Sect guards the coast, why didn't they discover the invasion of the Water Grudge Demon into China in time?"
“You Canghai Sect has received benefits from Fellow Daoist Shen, and you are still here to frame others, what do you think?”
Elder Cang listened to the discussion of others and his face darkened: "I really don't believe that a mere yellow-haired girl can solve the Yamata no Orochi!"
"Chen Wan, didn't you say it's not possible? Well, tell me why our sect's Five Elements Demon Suppression Formation is not effective?"
Everyone's eyes were focused on Shen Wan.
Chen Wan looked calm and said in a tepid tone: "I have never denied the exquisiteness of the Five Elements Demon Suppression Formation, but in the current situation, it is indeed not enough to use it to resist the Yamata no Orochi.
This formation is indeed extraordinary, but the Yamata no Orochi is by no means an ordinary sea monster. Its power is enough to disrupt the vitality of heaven and earth, control the wind and rain at will, and create typhoons and tsunamis of terrifying power. I believe everyone knows this."
"Yes, that's true, but what does this have to do with the Five Elements Demon-Suppressing Array?" Elder Cang said with an unhappy look on his face.
Chen Wan looked at him calmly: "The core of the Five Elements Demon Suppression Formation is to subdue the monsters with the power of the five elements. But as long as the power of the five elements is evenly distributed, this seemingly indestructible formation will collapse in an instant."
"Yamata no Orochi is good at using water as an attack."
Shen Wan paused slightly, raised his hand and pointed to the rough sea in the distance, and continued.
"The Yamata no Orochi will use its ability to control water to launch a fierce attack on the weak points of the formation. The spiritual power of the eastern wood position is the key. Water generates wood. Once the water is too strong, the wood cannot withstand it and the balance of the five elements will be broken. By then, the wood position will be broken, the circulation of the five elements will be blocked, and the defense system of the entire formation will collapse like dominoes."
"By then, all the key coastal defense points will be exposed to the enemy."
After listening to her analysis, everyone's expression suddenly changed.
"Fellow Daoist Shen's analysis is absolutely correct. Once the Five Elements Demon Suppression Array is breached, the protective array will instantly become ineffective. At that time, the coastal areas will be open to the enemy's landing. Coupled with the strength of the Yamata no Orochi, the coastal cities will definitely suffer heavy losses." Taoist Wang said seriously.
Elder Cang's face changed, but he still stubbornly retorted: "No evidence, this is just your guess. Are you deliberately picking on me?"
Chen Wan said with a smile: "I have no grudges against Canghai Sect, why would I pick on them?"
"Even if it's just a guess, would Elder Cang and the Canghai Sect dare to bet on more than 50 coastal cities and hundreds of millions of people?"
Elder Cang had a stern face and stopped talking.
Taoist Wang said in a deep voice: "This concerns the lives of so many people, we can't gamble!"
“Yes, if it’s really like what Fellow Daoist Shen said, once the Five Elements Demon Suppression Array is broken, innocent people will be harmed!”
“Elder Cang, don’t gamble with human lives, let’s just listen to Fellow Daoist Shen, right?”
Elder Cang looked at Shen Wan coldly: "Well, what do you say we should do?"
Chen Wan said calmly: "It's very simple. The Five Elements Demon Suppression Formation does not need to be withdrawn. It will serve as the first line of defense. I will set up the second and third lines of defense later."
Elder Cang couldn't help but say something sarcastic: "Three lines of defense to deal with the Yamata no Orochi, isn't it too much for Fellow Daoist Shen?"
He still firmly believed that their Canghai Sect's Five Elements Demon-Suppressing Formation could resist the Yamata-no-Orochi.
Chen Wan asked him back: "Since the Canghai Sect has been guarding the sea since ancient times, Elder Cang would know this, right? Whenever a disaster strikes, there will always be ghosts and monsters trying to take advantage of the situation."
"Now that the Yamata no Orochi is stirring up trouble on the sea, won't other sea monsters take the opportunity to attack China?"
Elder Cang's face suddenly changed, but he didn't refute because she hit the point.
“Fellow Daoist Shen, if all three lines of defense are broken…” said Daoist Wang.
A trace of determination flashed in Chen Wan's eyes, and he said, "If it really comes to that, and all three lines of defense are broken, it means that we have nowhere to retreat. The entire Xuanmen must work together and fight to the death!"
Her voice was sonorous and powerful, echoing in the howling wind.
It beats heavily like a war drum in the hearts of every Taoist.
Taoist Wang clasped his hands together and said firmly, "Don't worry, fellow Taoist Shen, our Shenxiao sect is committed to protecting China. If it really comes to a life-and-death situation, we will definitely sacrifice our lives and fight that evil beast to the death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the leaders and disciples of other sects echoed him.
Even Elder Cang agreed, "Although I don't like you, if it really comes to that, my Canghai Sect swears to live and die with China!"
"Yes, I swear to live and die with China!!"
At this moment, the morale of the Chinese Xuanmen was greatly boosted and they were united.
The shouts of the crowd drowned out the howling of the waves and the wind.
With the help of the Five Ghosts, Shen Wan set up the second and third lines of defense at various key points along the coast as quickly as possible, and instructed each sect to guard the key points.
