In the meeting hall, the atmosphere was depressing. Silence dominated the atmosphere.
The eight leaders of the eight directions had all retreated. According to the original plan, after they drove the Holy Spirits out, they would retreat and prepare for the second attack.
They never thought that they would be defeated before they could drive the Holy Spirits out.
During this period, the leader of the Southeast was the one who lost the most.
His face was gloomy as he said coldly, "Last time was just an accident. Give me more people and I will kill them all!"
The others were still silent. In fact, they had seen many problems from the last battle.
For example, although the people who came this time were all Holy Spirits, they were different from the previous ones. They had their own forces, and there were many of them, much more than before.
One of them said, "Ao San, you are too impulsive. The humans who came this time are different from the last time."
The leader of the Southeast was Ao San. He stared at the one who spoke, "Ao Gu Te, what do you mean?
Are they not humans? "
Ao Gu Te said, "Of course they are humans. But there are more of them than last time.
According to our intelligence, there are a lot of humans coming in every day. They are completely different from the ones we dealt with before. "
"So what if there are more of them?
If they didn't join forces to attack me last time, I wouldn't have lost so much. "
Ao San said loudly, "As long as you give me more people, I promise to drive them all out!"
The others were still silent. They didn't say anything.
About a quarter of an hour later, the ninth person appeared at the door. Seeing the ninth person, the eight people stood up and greeted him.
The other person nodded, walked forward indifferently, and sat down at the head of the table.
The eight people sat on two sides.
"Tell me what you found." The other person sat down and said indifferently.
Everyone expressed their opinions and thoughts. Among them, Ao San was still the one who wanted to fight.
The leader, who was sitting at the head of the table, gently tapped on the table and said, "According to the information we received, although the number of humans who came this time is large, they are not very united with each other. There was even a bitter internal strife."
The eight people's faces changed. Obviously, they didn't know this information.
"Maybe we can't drive them out this time, but we still have to let them know the strength of the ancient races!"
The leader stood up and gave the final word, "Attack again!"
"Yes!"
The eight of them stood up and agreed in unison. Since it was an order from above, they naturally had to obey.

Outside the Blood Dragon Canyon, Zi Chen was still worried.
Those people who were eyeing them covetously might not have dared to charge into the canyon, but they didn't do anything. They just stayed here and didn't leave. This was somewhat disgusting.
However, this was not entirely a bad thing. At the very least, the other strange beasts and the Lost Race would not dare to come here again because they could not get close to this place at all.
Zi Chen wasn't stupid enough to treat them as free guards. After all, the current Holy Thunder Clan didn't have enough manpower, especially after all the resources were excavated at the same time.
This was because Zi Chen couldn't afford any delays. Every day of delay was a sky-high expense for him.
According to Grace's assessment, he could not monopolize 85% of the resources found in every place. In some places, he could only get as much as 65%, and this was under the condition that he managed it well.
Although Zi Chen had participated in the previous trip to the Immortal Domain and found a lot of resources, he had not been in the name of the leader at that time. Moreover, all the gains and losses were borne by the Holy Thunder Clan.
However, it was different this time. Zi Chen came here as the leader, and everything was decided by him. All the big and small matters added together were troublesome and complicated, and he even had to consider some of the ways of the world.
Compared to the other forces, the Holy Thunder Clan had the most people here because they controlled a Celestial Crystal mineral vein. At the same time, their burden was also the least. However, compared to the big picture that Zi Chen had spread out, these people were obviously not enough.
Therefore, Zi Chen spent almost every day in entanglement and contradiction.
As for the other forces that were eyeing covetously, they were almost praying every day that the Vestigial Clan would come out again and take away everything that the Holy Thunder Clan currently had.
If the Blood Dragon Canyon and the Celestial Crystal mineral vein were lost, many forces would be extremely happy.
It was unknown whether or not the prayers had worked, but the people they had arranged in the depths finally made a discovery.
The Vestigial Clan launched a large-scale attack again.
As soon as they received the news, the people of the various forces decisively retreated.
All the Holy Spirits in sight had retreated, and the canyon immediately became quiet. This made Zi Chen a little uncomfortable.
He smiled slightly and said self-deprecatingly, "At least we saved some people from scouting for information."
Then, everyone gathered.
The extremely powerful core members walked out of the resource lands and came to meet Zi Chen outside the canyon.
Even Grace had come.
If a battle were to break out, everyone's credit would need to be calculated.
Lei Wusheng came close and said, "Because there are no obstacles, they can arrive in one day at the earliest."
When the others heard this, their expressions changed. They were obviously surprised by the speed of the Vestigial Clan's advance.
Lei Wusheng said again, "All the other forces have withdrawn, and it seems that they intend to retreat to the back of the Celestial Crystal mineral vein. Do we need to send more people there?"
Zi Chen shook his head and said, "That's not necessary. As long as we don't lose here, the back will be safe.
Even if they covet the Celestial Crystal mineral vein, they won't dare to attack at will. There are still rules. After all, once they break the rules, our Holy Thunder Clan won't need to abide by them. "
Zi Chen led his people to the other side of the canyon to deal with the Vestigial Clan, exposing their back.
Behind them, other than some intelligence personnel, everyone else had retreated.
During this period, some people who were good at concealment planned to sneak into the canyon quietly, but they were all caught by Xiaolei.
Even if he was going all out to face the Vestigial Clan, Zi Chen was still on guard against the other forces' little tricks.
The Vestigial Clan appeared in his field of vision. They were a dark mass, like a torrent.
They rampaged along the way without encountering any obstacles. They had the intention to break through the Holy Thunder Clan's defense army and kill their way to the outside world.
Zi Chen's figure rose into the air. His whole body lit up with golden light, which was particularly eye-catching.
"Let your leader come out and talk!"
Zi Chen's voice sounded, exploding in front of them like a clap of thunder.
A powerful shockwave surged forward. Wherever it passed, grass and trees would fall and withered leaves would fly into the air.
