Mortals cultivate immortality, I have a Chaos Tower

The patrols of Xueting Village have been completely wiped out, and the bloodstains on the square have been gradually cleaned up, but Lin Fan's heart is not at ease at all. Standing at the head of the village, he looked into the distance, feeling uneasy. The real threat from the Yan nobles has not disappeared, but is getting closer with the control of Yunzhou City. Only by taking over Yunzhou City can Xueting Village truly have long-term peace.

Lin Fan held the Qiankun Axe in his hand, frowned slightly, and after thinking for a long time, he turned and walked towards a meeting hall in the village.

In the meeting room, Jin Buke, Zhong Ling'er, Jiang Shuiling, Ouyang Hu and others had already arrived. Everyone had different expressions, but the atmosphere was extremely solemn. Lin Fan pushed the door open and everyone stood up, their eyes full of respect and expectation.

"Brother Fan, what should we do next?" Ouyang Hu spoke first, with a hint of anxiety and uneasiness in his tone. As one of the defenders of Xueting Village, he knew the threat of Yunzhou City to the village. "Although we have dealt with the patrols outside the village, Yunzhou City is the real threat. If we can't take Yunzhou City soon, the village will be in trouble again sooner or later."

Lin Fan nodded, took a deep breath, and said with a firm look in his eyes: "I know that Yan Wuji of Yunzhou City is our biggest enemy. Only by taking over Yunzhou City can we completely ensure the safety of Xueting Village. But the problem is that the military strength of Yunzhou City should not be underestimated."

As soon as he said this, Jin Buke leaned against the wall and sneered, "No matter how strong Yunzhou City is, it's just a city. No matter how many troops the enemy has, if you kill their leader, they will be scattered."

Zhong Linger frowned slightly, with a bit of worry in her tone: "Although we are powerful, there are many masters in Yunzhou City. It is said that Yan Wuji controls 3,000 elite troops in Yunzhou City. This army has fought on the battlefield for many years and its combat effectiveness is extraordinary. If we want to attack the city directly, I am afraid it will be difficult."

Ouyang Hu nodded and continued, "Not only that, Zhao Si's whereabouts are unknown. Zhao Si was sent to Yunzhou City to gather information long before we rebelled, but since he last delivered intelligence half a month ago, there has been no news, and his life or death is unknown."

When Lin Fan mentioned Zhao Si, his brows furrowed even more. Zhao Si was a confidant he had planted in Yunzhou City, responsible for delivering important intelligence about Yunzhou City's movements. Now there was no news from him, which made Lin Fan feel a little more uneasy.

"Zhao Si won't get into trouble easily," Jiang Shuiling said calmly and decisively, "but whether he has been exposed or there is another hidden story, we must handle it with caution. There are 3,000 defenders outside Yunzhou City, and a brute force attack alone will inevitably result in huge losses."

Lin Fan thought for a moment, then raised his head and said, "There is only one way now - attack from both inside and outside. Ouyang Hu, we can't delay the matter of Zhao Si's disappearance. You take a few capable young men and try to sneak into Yunzhou City. On the one hand, find out Zhao Si's whereabouts, and on the other hand, contact the people in the city to organize a resistance. There are many people in Yunzhou City who are dissatisfied with Yan Wuji. We can take this opportunity to join forces and coordinate the internal and external forces."

Ouyang Hu nodded heavily, with a firm look in his eyes: "Brother Fan, rest assured, I will fulfill my mission, find out Zhao Si's whereabouts, and contact the resistance forces as soon as possible."

"Okay," Lin Fan continued, "Jin Buke, Zhong Ling'er, Jiang Shuiling and I will attack Yunzhou City head-on to attract their main force. You cooperate from the inside, find the flaws, and attack from both inside and outside."

Jin Buke shook the sword in his hand slightly, and said with a smile: "Head-on attack? With me here, the city will fall sooner or later."

"Be careful," Zhong Ling'er reminded, "Don't underestimate the enemy, especially Yan Wuji. His cultivation has reached the ninth level of foundation building. It is said that the 'Seven Stars Linking Formation' he controls is enough to trap and kill any foundation building master. Don't be careless."

"Seven Stars Linked Beads Formation?" Jin Buke's face darkened slightly, and he raised his eyebrows. "It seems that Yan Wuji is not simple, but the formation is useless to me. Brother Fan, you and I will definitely be able to break it together."

Lin Fan nodded and said calmly: "We should not underestimate the enemy, but we don't need to be overly afraid. The enemy's main force is 3,000 defenders, including 100 Foundation Establishment cultivators. Although they are powerful, their weakness is that once Yan Wuji's formation is broken, these soldiers are nothing but a mob."

The meeting was over and everyone was ready to go. As night fell, Xueting Village seemed particularly quiet under the starlight. However, in the silence, undercurrents were surging.

The next morning, Lin Fan led Jin Buke, Zhong Ling'er and Jiang Shuiling, and set out from Xueting Village and headed straight for Yunzhou City. Their steps were firm, and everyone's eyes were full of fighting spirit. Ouyang Hu led several elite young men in the village to sneak into the city from another secret path to find out the whereabouts of Zhao Si.

Outside Yunzhou City, tall city walls stood majestically, the black bricks exuded a cold and oppressive feeling, and the walls were heavily guarded. Lin Fan and his party stopped not far away, and Jin Buke whispered: "Brother Fan, if we attack the city from the front, how can we break their defense line?"
