The Fire Spirit Island conference summoned by Elder Fumo made significant progress that everyone was quite satisfied with, as Wang Zhifan confirmed the identity of the main perpetrator from the memory of the jade slip regarding the upheaval at Extreme Origin Mountain, and the participants reached a consensus on how to deal with similar tactics moving forward.

It wasn’t that these attendees casually believed Wang Zhifan’s claims, but rather the influence of Wang Zhifan’s brilliant anti-demon achievements and his high-ranking status.

Those familiar with him were willing to trust him, and those unfamiliar subconsciously leaned towards trusting him as well.

After all, Wang Zhifan is not just an ordinary innate martial cultivator of the Daoist sect; he is the highest-ranked among the living on the Demon Sealing List, roughly the person with the greatest contribution to the battle against the demon army in the Calamity Realm. His strength is top-tier, and his prestige is unmatched by others.

As for the strategies Wang Zhifan proposed to other cultivators to deal with the indescribable ancient gods, it was naturally to encourage everyone to focus on handling the Otherworld players, rather than suggesting they confront the ancient gods head-on.

He explicitly told these Calamity Realm natives that before the great war, the lecturer had reminded him that along with the invading demon army, some people from the outside regions came as well, and now it’s inferred that it was these outsiders who summoned the indescribable ancient gods, resulting in the tragedy at Extreme Origin Mountain.

But summoning the ancient gods undoubtedly comes at a great cost, and it’s impossible for the outsiders to randomly summon them at will. If it were that easy, the Demon Realm wouldn’t need to fight them in a war of attrition; they could simply let the outsiders summon ten thousand ancient god projections, and the Calamity Realm would immediately change rulers.

Therefore, Wang Zhifan reminded all the cultivators in attendance not to overly worry about encountering ancient gods when going out to fight demons. That would be akin to worrying over imaginary fears, and he even suspected that the Otherworld players from the Demon Realm wouldn’t be able to replicate the same tactic in the short term.

His specific suggestion was to launch a thorough cleansing campaign against the outsiders within each territory, leaving them no place to hide and allowing the vast innate masters of the Calamity Realm to play a good game of cat and mouse with them.

Then, before large-scale battles, the super innate cultivators should prioritize handling any suspected presence of outsiders near the battlefield. With the powerful range perception ability of the super innates, identifying these Otherworld individuals shouldn’t be too difficult.

Finally, there are tactical approaches; the super innate cultivators can frequently use avatars to go out and confront the enemy. It’s best to fill the entire Calamity Realm with avatars to confuse the enemy’s vision, making it hard for them to determine how many real bodies there are in a battle, thereby deterring them from decisively using the ultimate tactic of summoning ancient gods. Even if they do, the Calamity Realm’s loss would be minimized.

Thus, the Fire Spirit Island conference quickly concluded with Wang Zhifan’s proposed core strategy.

The meeting not only affected the more than twenty top super innate cultivators in attendance but also swiftly extended its influence across the entire Calamity Realm, having a considerable impact on the overall battle situation.

After the meeting, it wasn’t long before everyone dispersed, or rather, many avatars dispatched by the attendees departed Fire Spirit Island to start their respective follow-up actions.

Wang Zhifan himself was also very pleased with the information obtained from this meeting. He previously wondered why top experts like Demon Tathagata, Taixi Confucian Sword, and Extreme Origin Overlord were wiped out, but now that he knows it was the players who summoned the indescribable ancient gods, everything makes sense, and things have become simpler.

After all, the most terrifying enemies are those unknown to us. Once you understand what the enemy is, whether to advance or retreat has a basis, avoiding the paralyzing fear of the unknown.

After the meeting, Wang Zhifan retracted his avatar and first wiped out some demon army forces nearby in the Beihai Region, then used teleportation to return to the area around Celestial Essence City, joining Moon-Annihilating Dragon Saber to launch a fierce attack on the demon army there.

In fact, when the meeting ended, Daoist Wutian Wudi suggested exploring the area around Extreme Origin Mountain together, but after some thought, Wang Zhifan refused.

The reason was that Extreme Origin Mountain was too far, requiring the use of the Demon Sealing List’s teleportation.

This would use up his two teleportations for the day, necessitating a stay around Extreme Origin Mountain.

If anything went wrong at Celestial Essence City or Moon-Annihilating Dragon Saber during that time, he’d be helplessly angry, unable to act.

Therefore, Wang Zhifan now uses his teleportations with great regularity. The first teleportation destination can be anywhere in the Calamity Realm, but the second is more cautious, ensuring it’s in the area around Celestial Essence City, making it convenient to return promptly if anything happens at the main base.

Until another day arrived and his teleportation permissions refreshed, Wang Zhifan then went alone to explore Extreme Origin Mountain.

Just like the information he’d gathered from others, he found that almost all life around Extreme Origin Mountain had disappeared.

No trace of cultivators, civilians, or flora and fauna was left; only some demons were constructing Demon Realm arrays on-site.

This initially resulted in the Calamity Realm people being unable to comprehend what exactly happened there.

Wang Zhifan personally ventured in, first secretly investigating through invisibility and other methods to confirm the basic situation and detect traces of what seemed to be remnants of ancient gods.

Only after that did he contact Daoist Wutian Wudi and other experts in the vicinity to carry out a joint assassination operation.

According to the strategy set at the Fire Spirit Island conference, they prioritized finding and assassinating the outsiders here to prevent them from attempting another ancient god summoning.
