Chapter 734

The news of the complete annihilation caused an uproar in the Heavenly Dog Clan.

Then, there was all kinds of disbelief.

They were merely humans. How could they possibly wipe out the entire Devil Clan? Just based on that little bit of combat strength of the humans and their cowardice.

Many people in the Heavenly Dog Clan did not believe that their clan was slaughtered by humans. They believed that the Monster Clan felt no sense of accomplishment after annihilating the humans, so they went to hunt ancient beasts again.

And there were many people who had such guesses.

But not long after, news spread from the Heavenly Wolf Clan that Lang Dong had led people to attack the humans and had not returned for a long time. It was suspected that the entire army had been annihilated.

After this news spread, it caused a huge commotion.

Who was Lang Dong? He was an expert of the Heavenly Wolf Clan. His combat power was extraordinary. Ordinary dragonians were no match for him. Moreover, when he was in the middle stage of Primal Core, he had killed a powerful late-stage Primal Core monster.

Now, Lang Dong was already in the late stage of Primal Core. In this world, who could kill him? Perhaps even the powerful dragonians could not.

But such an existence, together with two powerful monsters, actually did not return for a long time after killing the humans.

Could it be that Lang Dong also felt no sense of accomplishment and went to hunt ancient beasts? But it was obviously impossible. At Lang Dong's level, he disdained to hunt ancient beasts in the outer region.

These two incidents had already made them pay attention to the humans. It was fine if they did not pay attention, but once they did, they found something unusual.

Among the humans, there was one more powerful existence who could kill a late-stage Primal Core monster and Lang Dong's younger brother, Lang Meng.

And during this period, he also killed many late-stage Primal Core monsters.

"Could it be him?"

In the minds of the Monster Clan, the appearance of the Monster Ape appeared. If it was as the outside world said, the possibility of the other party killing Lang Dong was very high.

But there was no news from the other Monster Clans. What could they say?

Just as everyone was wondering and guessing, the humans who should be in the outer region walked into the inner region without warning.

This was a human army with more than a thousand Primal Core cultivators. The leader was Zi Chen, and beside him were the Monster Ape and the monk.

After resting for two days, Zi Chen decided to take the initiative to attack without waiting for the demon army to attack. First, it was because waiting passively was not Zi Chen's style. Second, Zi Chen wanted to get some resources for everyone.

Therefore, he had set his eyes on the Demon Clan's encampment here. He wanted to take advantage of the fact that the Demon Clan hadn't woken up yet to destroy the encampment with lightning speed and obtain a lot of resources.

Along the way, in order to prevent the news from being leaked, Zi Chen released a powerful spiritual sense to sense all the movements in the area. Once he found traces of the Demon Clan, he would kill them with all his might.

Of course, they wouldn't let any ancient beasts go either.

"Twenty-five miles ahead, there's a group of demons." Zi Chen's powerful spiritual senses detected another group of demons.

Hearing this, the Devil Ape turned into a ray of light with the black staff in hand. Soon after, the monk turned into a ray of golden light and followed closely behind. Both of them attacked at the same time, not because they were worried that the Devil Ape would not be able to kill its opponent, but because they wanted to end the battle quickly.

The troop did not stop just because they found traces of the Demon Clan. The troop of a thousand people continued to move forward. During this period, they did not even feel the slightest fluctuation of energy. The Devil Ape and the monk had already flown back.

When they returned, both of them nodded to show that they had completed their mission.

Zi Chen's expression was extremely calm, but behind him, the group of late-stage Primal Core cultivators were extremely shocked.

They had been deep in the encampment for a few days, and they finally realized how terrifying the three of them were. With Zi Chen's powerful spiritual senses and the combat strength of the two, the three of them worked together seamlessly. Along the way, they had killed several waves of demons without alarming anyone.

"Devil Ape, go and sense those encampments again." As they went deeper, they encountered more and more demons. Zi Chen knew that they were about to reach their destination.

"Be careful, don't expose yourself."

Just as the Devil Ape was about to disappear, Zi Chen reminded it again. After it left everyone's line of sight, Zi Chen sensed that the tall Devil Ape had shrunk to the size of a mini.

It was like a small black ball the size of a fist, flying close to the ground. Although its body had shrunk, the Devil Ape's speed did not decrease.

The encampment closest to Zi Chen's current location was the encampment of the Heavenly Dog Clan. There was a leader of the Heavenly Dog Clan and more than a dozen late-stage Primal Core cultivators. As for the early-stage and mid-stage Primal Core cultivators, the Devil Ape directly ignored them.

This was considered a small encampment. The Heavenly Dog Clan's harvest would be placed here, and after a period of time, it would be sent to the Heavenly Dog Clan's encampment. Such a small encampment, in this huge area, there were no less than five Heavenly Dog Clans. After the resources were sent to the larger encampment, they would be sent to the outside world.

This area was huge, so big that humans and demons could hunt the ancient beasts together without meeting. However, the demons could not. They wanted to suppress the humans and drive them out, so they forced the humans back.

The arrival of the fist-sized Devil Ape was not sensed by any of the demons. After he carefully observed the distribution of the strong cultivators here, he left silently.

After that, Zi Chen led the army over.

A group of people launched a destructive attack on this small encampment in the dark of night.

By the time the demons reacted, they were already surrounded by many humans. The encampment was completely surrounded by humans. Not even a fly could fly out, let alone a person.

"Damn it, it's actually humans."

"Despicable humans, how dare you come here and behave so atrociously. I'll make sure you don't return."

Amidst all kinds of roars, a group of demons rushed out of the encampment.

"Kill."

"Destroy."

The humans gave the order coldly. Then, various kinds of light emitted from the elixir weapons.

With several times more people than the demons, and with the encirclement, it was almost impossible for the demons to rush out of the encirclement and kill a single human.

Many demons died in the way. Along the way, even if some late-stage Primal Core cultivators rushed out, they would be killed by the humans who were several times more powerful than them.

As for those Primal Core cultivators who wanted to self-destruct when they saw that the situation was not good, they would be killed in advance by the monk and the Devil Ape.

In just a few attacks, more than half of the strong cultivators of the demon race were killed. The rest of them guarded the encampment and did not attack, waiting for their own clans to come and help.

But then, it was the humans' turn to attack.

They took the initiative to launch round after round of attacks. When the sky brightened, there were no more demons alive in the encampment. The encampment was conquered.

Then, a few late-stage Primal Core cultivators entered the encampment and opened the place where the ancient beasts were kept.

When all the ancient beasts in the encampment were taken out, everyone was stunned. The harvest was too big, so big that even they were shocked.

But these things were nothing to Zi Chen.

"Calculate the harvest."

Zi Chen said. Then, a late-stage Primal Core cultivator walked out and began to count the things. After the count was done, these things were put away by Zi Chen and distributed after the battle.

"In addition to the encampment of the Heavenly Dog Clan, there are four other encampments in this area. They are all of the same scale and belong to the other four clans." The Devil Ape soon brought back the news.

"Let's continue forward and destroy these encampments," Zi Chen said.

Then, the group continued to move forward and attack the other encampments.

Every time they launched an attack, it would be at night. When they launched their attack, they would surround everyone, not allowing any demons to escape or alert anyone. And because they were extremely confident, these demons did not have any devices to send out signals when they were in danger.

In just five days, the group had conquered five encampments of the demon race. The resources they obtained made all the Primal Core cultivators who participated in the battle envious.

This was a big harvest in the truest sense.

After conquering five encampments, the Devil Ape said, "If we continue to go deeper, we will reach the bigger encampments. It's almost unrealistic for us to take them down quietly. Once we encounter a large group of demons, we will definitely be at a disadvantage."

Zi Chen smiled mysteriously and said, "Five encampments are enough. If we continue, we will lose more than we gain."

"Retreat." Zi Chen finally gave the order.

The thousand-man team began to retreat. Compared to when they came, they were much bolder when they went back.

The Devil Ape and Monk were at the back of the group and were on guard.

On the way back, everyone was completely relaxed. They could freely kill the ancient beasts they encountered, but the condition was that after killing the ancient beasts, they had to hand them over to Zi Chen as shared resources. In the end, they would be distributed according to their contributions.

No one had any objections to this.

Since Zi Chen left with the group, the leaders of the various forces had been in a state of fear and trepidation.

More than ten days had passed, but no one had returned. This made everyone feel uneasy. During this time, they had sent out many Primal Core cultivators to investigate, but there was no news.

"Sir, they are back, they are back." A Primal Core cultivator's shout came from afar. This was the Primal Core cultivator who went to investigate.

"They are back?" Everyone's eyes lit up. While they were excited, they were also very worried. They were extremely conflicted.

"How many came back? Are there five hundred?"

When they left, the Primal Core cultivators were more than a thousand. If they returned with only five hundred, they would lose sixty percent. Sixty percent was the most they could accept.

"There are a thousand," the Primal Core cultivator replied.

"What? A thousand? This is almost no consumption. How is this possible? Could it be that they did not encounter the Demon Clan?"

While they were in disbelief, the majority of the troops had returned. The Primal Core cultivators in the sky were black. There were close to a thousand of them, and it was impossible to see the consumption at a glance.

When everyone returned, their faces were filled with excitement. Before they could ask, they were shouting loudly about the great harvest.

Seeing everyone's excited expression, the Primal Core cultivators were also very happy.

After the two sides came into contact, they excitedly recounted the details of the raid on the encampment.

"What? We raided five outposts?" Hearing this news, everyone was stunned.

"Yes, a total of five outposts. However, it was all because of the wisdom of Sir Zi Chen's leadership. We had foresight and raided five outposts without alerting the Demon Clan."

During this trip, everyone admired Zi Chen even more. Their words were filled with worship and respect.

After they explained in detail, the leaders were also very excited. Especially when they heard that the harvest this time was great, their eyes lit up.

Everything was for profit. As expected, the profit had come.

Moreover, they could see the profit without defeating the Demon Clan. This was far beyond their expectations.
