During the sacrifice, Lin Xiao took the opportunity to offer strategic advice to the Naga leader, instructing him to take aim directly at the heart of the Snake Tribe's core area in the center of Blackwater Swamp and to strike decisively at their stronghold.
Understanding the plan, the Supreme Naga rested briefly before adjusting the marching direction and heading straight for the central Blackwater Swamp.
On their way there, the army encountered only the witless beasts of the swamp and no other enemies; they even passed a small Fishman Tribe that had already relocated, including the removal of the deity statue from their altar.
Heading west for over a hundred kilometers, they overtook and annihilated a Frogman Tribe on the move and finally arrived outside the Snake Tribe's Holy Mountain on the fourth day.
