Chapter 53 The Upright and Pure Young Taoist

"First, attack the Demon Volcano."

"Won't that require a detour?"

The crowd was taken aback by Lin Zhan's suggestion, and then they voiced their concerns one after another.

After all, the Frozen Snow Mountain blocked the path of the human race's offensive. Without taking down the Frozen Snow Mountain, how could they even pass, let alone attack the Demon Volcano?

Lin Zhan had Zhang Dabiao bring up the 3D maps of the Frozen Snow Mountain, the Demon Volcano, and the Deep Sea, and said:

"The Frozen Snow Mountain is currently located exactly where our human race's former frontline defense line was. It's 50 kilometers from our war fortress. The frontline defense line position is like a gourd's mouth, with a narrow entrance, so a single Frozen Snow Mountain can keep us within the defense line."

"The entire Frozen Snow Mountain covers a diameter of nearly 350 kilometers. The average snow mountain height is 6,000 meters, and its highest peak is 8,850 meters. The lowest temperature is close to minus 260 degrees. Even our Platinum-level elite legions can't withstand it, so attacking the Frozen Snow Mountain head-on would be a foolish act we cannot undertake."

"If we used our initial tactic of leveling the Frozen Snow Mountain with space bombs No. 5, I can guarantee that once we bomb the Frozen Snow Mountain and establish defenses at the former frontline, those scoundrels in the allied ten thousand races will definitely bomb the Demon Volcano."

"At that time, our army will face the harassment of the lava sea. This is also something only a fool would do, and we will not do it."

"Therefore, I've decided to deal with the Demon Volcano first. Bomb the Demon Volcano, release the magma, and let the magma deal with the Frozen Snow Mountain. With the Frozen Snow Mountain acting as our shield, we can just watch the show."

As soon as Lin Zhan finished speaking, everyone began to discuss.

"Marshal, with the Frozen Snow Mountain in between, our King-level experts cannot get through. But if our King-level experts don't hold back the King-level experts of the demon race, even your No. 5 missiles will be blocked by the demons. Even if a few hit the Demon Volcano, they won't cause much damage," said Elder Wang Jian of the Second Army Group.

Wang Jian's words echoed the thoughts of everyone present.

Lin Zhan chuckled and then signaled the young Taoist with his eyes.

The young Taoist smiled knowingly, nodded, and stood up to address everyone:

"What Old Ancestor Wang Jian said is indeed the current situation, and it is probably what everyone is worried about. But if the Lava Demon race had no King-level existences, could our missiles still hit the Demon Volcano?"

The young Taoist's words stunned everyone for a moment, and they began to speak:

"You kid isn't planning to have us sneak attack the King-level demons on the Demon Volcano, are you? This idea is a bit silly, but it's not impossible."

"That's right, eagles on the grassland are not afraid of storms. No matter how difficult it is, we have to kill them."

Led by Temujin, a group of grassland kings, as staunch supporters of the young Taoist, showed their loyalty by immediately reaching for their knives.

The young Taoist secretly nodded. It was worth having these boisterous old ancestors around. They really stepped up when needed.

He quickly waved his hand and said, "Don't rush, everyone, listen to me explain slowly. Old Ancestor Tie, have some tea first, and decide whether to go cut people with knives after I'm done."

Then, the young Taoist took out a bottle of Flaming Paradise and said to everyone:

"More than two months ago, my elder brother and I began to make plans for the Lava Demon race and high-level great demons."

"This thing is called Flaming Paradise, and it contains a special fire element. Fire attribute demons above the Lord level who consume this will have their strength doubled within a month, equivalent to three years of normal cultivation time."

As the young Taoist finished speaking, the entire conference room fell silent.

Which side is this little fatty on? The Lava Demons are not weak among the ten thousand races to begin with.

If they become twice as strong, what hope do we have with these old bones? Wouldn't that be like sending ourselves to our deaths?

Everyone looked at the young Taoist in a daze. If they didn't know that this little fatty was a loyal supporter, they would have suspected him of treason.

The young Taoist, who had been looking smug, jumped up when he saw the suspicious looks on everyone's faces, especially Wang Jian and the others.

"What are you old guys looking at? What, do you think I can betray you? Why don't you go ask around? On the bounty list below the foundational level of the Ten Thousand Races, I'm second only to my elder brother, and I have more bounties than the three of you old guys!"

The young Taoist said while pointing at Wang Jian and the others.

Immediately, the three great generals and kings, Bai Qi, Wang Jian, and Meng Tian, looked as if they had eaten a dead rat.

Although the young Taoist's words were unpleasant, they were indeed true.

He and Lin Zhan, those two scoundrels who would dig up ancestral graves and kick widowed old women, were actually worth more on the bounty lists of the Ten Thousand Races than ordinary foundational powerhouses.

The combined worth of these three army group commanders was not as much as this one kid. Where could they even complain about this?

"Alright, we know you're valuable, kid. Stop showing off and hurry up and explain."

Finally, it was Liu Bang, the old ancestor of the Liu family and a staunch supporter of Master Lin, who spoke, allowing the young Taoist to continue.

The young Taoist pouted, pointed at the Flaming Paradise, and continued:

"The reason this thing is so effective is because Old Ancestor Yan Di added a trace of the Shennong clan's Dan Fire to it."

Seeing the stunned looks on everyone's faces, the young Taoist turned and retorted to Wang Jian and the others:

"Now why aren't you suspecting Old Ancestor Yan Di of betraying us?"

Bai Qi and the other two rolled their eyes and thought to themselves.

We brothers are just trying to fight for a new era for His Majesty the First Emperor, not because our brains are malfunctioning.

Who is Old Ancestor Yan Di? He is the eldest of the three ancestors of Huaxia.

Besides the founding ancestors of the human race, he is the most senior.

Even if we all surrendered and joined the Ten Thousand Races, Old Ancestor Yan Di would not betray the human race!

Seeing the three of them roll their eyes and remain silent, the young Taoist muttered softly, "That's good. Judging by their appearance, it's not late-stage senile dementia."

Then, the young Taoist continued: "As long as a creature has the Dan Fire refined within its body, its life will be in the hands of the Shennong clan."

"By activating the Dan Fire resource through the formation, all creatures with Dan Fire in their bodies will instantly be burned to ashes from the inside out by the Dan Fire."

"And our Flaming Paradise is specifically prepared for the Lord-level Lava Demons and Great Demons. This means we can use this method to instantly kill all experts above Lord level on the Demon Volcano."

"As for the remaining small fries, we can take care of them with missiles and rockets, and the Demon Volcano can be wiped out along with them."
