Chapter 741

Along the way, the demons no longer launched futile attacks.

As time passed, they even became more cooperative. Wherever Zi Chen wanted to go, they would bring the three of them there.

If they wanted to plunder resources from the encampment, they would be led there by Dan Yuan of the demons. When they arrived at the encampment, the demons in the encampment did not dare to resist and could only watch as the three of them blasted open the door to the treasury.

Resources were plundered at will.

As if worried that the humans would kill the demons again if the resources were too little, the treasures in the treasury were almost full.

Plundering resources from thousands or even tens of thousands of demons was naturally a huge gain. Zi Chen's expression became more and more satisfied.

The cooperation of the demons was not without reason. The demons knew why, and so did Zi Chen.

The demons were waiting for reinforcements from the Dragonians, and so was Zi Chen.

Killing these ordinary demons would only infuriate the demons even more. It would only make the demons hate the humans even more, but it would not make the demons fear the humans.

In order to instill fear, respect, and apprehension in the Shifters, one had to hurt them and make them suffer a great loss. Among the Shifters, it seemed that the only thing that they respected was the Dragonians. The Dragonians were the strongest in their eyes and were everything in the eyes of the Shifters. If a few Dragonians were killed, the Shifters would truly know what fear was.

In the depths of this area, there were more than a dozen Dragonians sitting cross-legged. In addition, there were many powerful demons scattered around.

This was the opening of the passageway. The area within a few miles was monitored from all angles. Many spiritual senses were intertwined. Even a fly or a mosquito would not be able to get close.

Nine years ago, the human woman with the mutated beast entered this place after a series of killings. Although the Dragonians had already discovered the passageway and killed the ancient beast guarding the passageway, they were still a little afraid of the passageway. As a result, they were a little slower when they entered.

However, who knew that the passageway would close automatically and block the Dragonians.

Under such a special situation, the Dragonians quickly went back to the ancient books to look for useful information. After a careful search, they really did find something. They guessed that there might be a training ground behind the passageway. Of course, it was most likely an ancient training ground.

Everything had yet to be verified. Therefore, they waited for nine years.

According to the records, this passage opened once every nine years.

However, at this special moment when the passageway was about to open, accidents happened frequently among the Demon Race. Today, there were even Demon Race members who came to ask for help, saying that humans had attacked their base.

"The humans have attacked our base." A dragonoid opened his eyes, and a glint flashed across his eyes.

"Yes, three humans. Their battle prowess is extremely great. Not only did they beat back our Dan Origin Great Army, they even slaughtered their way into the depths, plundering the various encampments." The person who came reported this matter as quickly as possible.

"His combat power is very strong. How strong can he be?" Another dragonoid opened his eyes and couldn't help but sneer.

"They are very strong. Two of them are in the early stage of the Primal Core Realm, and one is in the middle stage of the Primal Core Realm. However, they are able to slaughter our late stage Primal Core Realm demons as they please. Several of our leaders were also killed by them. One of them was unable to win even when it was two against one."

The sneer on the draconic person's face instantly froze, and a serious expression appeared on his face. Clearly, with just a few words, he could tell that this human was extraordinary. To have such combat strength at such a realm, this human had combat strength that was comparable to theirs.

The other dragonoids opened their eyes one after another, and their faces were filled with curiosity and desire. Clearly, they wanted to see the three humans.

"Big Brother, the passageway might not open for a while. Why don't we go and meet those three humans?" a dragonoid asked.

"That's right. Mere humans dare to behave atrociously in our demon territory. They even dare to plunder. They are obviously looking down on us. How can we not punish them?"

"The humans are provoking us. We have to respond. Otherwise, they will think that we are afraid."

The other dragonoids also spoke, and their eyes were filled with battle intent. As dragonoids, they were naturally warlike. Now that they heard that the humans were extraordinary, they were even more interested in learning more.

Among the dragonoids, there was also a leader. He was in the late stage of the Primal Core Realm, and his combat strength was ranked first among the demons.

He frowned slightly and pondered for a moment. Then, he pointed at three dragonoids and said, "Long He, Long Ming, Long Xi, you three go and deal with the humans."

"Okay."

"We promise to complete the mission."

"I will come back with the heads of the humans."

Hearing this, the three of them stood up, and their faces were filled with excitement.

When the messenger saw that the other party had only arranged for three people, his expression changed slightly. He dared to speak but did not dare to.

"What's wrong? Is there something wrong?" the leader asked coldly.

"We wouldn't dare, we wouldn't dare."

The messenger hurriedly said, "It's just that there is a suspected Heavenly Warrior among the humans, and we sent three Lord Dragons. It seems that …"

"Heavenly Warrior?" All the dragonoids were stunned.

"Yes, there is a Heavenly Warrior in the early stage of the Primal Core Realm. He seems to be the leader of the three."

As soon as the messenger finished speaking, one of the dragonoids snorted. "Hmph, so what if he is a Heavenly Warrior? He is merely in the early stage of the Primal Core Realm. Even if his combat strength is extraordinary and he possesses ultimate energy, we can still destroy him."

Seeing the confidence of the three, the messenger tactfully shut up.

"It's okay. You can go," the leader of the dragonoids said after pondering for a moment.

"Hmph, let's go. Don't boost the morale of others while diminishing our own. I really don't know what the demons are like now."

The three dragonoids and one of the demons left the place.

After the three of them left, the leader of the dragonoids kept frowning. Beside him, another dragonoid asked, "Big brother, are you worried?"

The other dragonoids also looked at the leader.

"Three mere humans dared to kill their way into the depths of the demon territory and even plunder. Obviously, they are very confident in themselves. I suspect that they are deliberately plundering here and waiting for us to attack," the leader of the dragonoids said.

"How is that possible? It's just three humans," a dragonoid exclaimed.

"If big brother is worried, we can go and take a look. No matter how strong the humans are, they are no match for us," another dragonoid said.

The leader of the dragonoids waved his hand and said, "That won't be necessary. The reason why the humans are in conflict with us is because of the resources in this area. Let the demons go and take a look. If the humans are really strong, let them stay in this area. Also, we can invite them to enter the training ground together."

"Invite them?" All the dragonoids widened their eyes.

"The passage is no longer a secret. If the three of them are strong enough, they will definitely come. It makes no difference whether we invite them or not. Of course, the prerequisite is that they are alive."

Just as the leader of the dragonoids finished speaking, the demons in the distance had already left to make arrangements.

The other dragonoids also closed their eyes, but this time, they were obviously restless.

In the demon territory, Zi Chen had already plundered two major bases and was now heading to the third. According to Dan Yuan, it seemed that the third base was not far away.

That was the base of the Heavenly Ape lineage, but it was relatively small. After seeing it from afar, but before Zi Chen and the others could go and plunder, a figure rushed out from the base.

It was an old ape, but its body was very strong. In a few flashes, it was in front of Zi Chen.

Zi Chen's eyes flashed coldly and said, "Those who stand in my way shall die."

Looking at the three humans in front of him, the old ape paused and said, "My three little human friends, this is the base of the Heavenly Ape lineage. The Heavenly Ape lineage has a small population, and we rarely have conflicts with other tribes, even with humans."

Zi Chen looked at the old ape and did not say anything.

"Little human friend, can you spare the Heavenly Ape lineage?" The old ape asked sincerely, with a trace of longing in its eyes.

Just as the old ape was speaking, figures flew out from the base. They were all members of the Ape Tribe.

Compared to the other demons who came out in groups, these Ape Tribe cultivators were naturally much smaller. There were only a few dozen of them, and they were all holding elixir weapons in their hands. The aura around them was dormant, and they were in a state of alert.

"The Heavenly Ape lineage has a small population, and we don't have many resources. If you insist on going, can you spare these juniors and take all the resources?"

Seeing Zi Chen's gaze constantly sweeping over the Ape Tribe, the old ape was afraid that Zi Chen would kill them.

At the same time, the old ape turned around and ordered his tribesmen to put down their weapons.

The other demons did not speak. In their eyes, these three humans were murderous demons. If the old ape tried to stop them now, he would be courting death.

Because when had the Demon King ever been soft-hearted?

"Let's go."

After retracting his gaze from the Ape Tribe cultivators and looking at the old ape, Zi Chen unexpectedly turned around and left.

The Devil Ape and the monk also left.

Seeing the group disappear, the old ape heaved a sigh of relief. The Ape Tribe was saved, and so were their resources.

His prediction had come true. The humans who came this time were extraordinary, and the demon army was defeated.

"The next battle will be with the dragonman. I wonder who will win and who will lose." The old ape muttered.

After the three of them left, they went straight to the fourth base, which was the base of the Heavenly Lion Tribe. The latter had imitated the old ape's actions.

Unfortunately, Zi Chen was not soft-hearted this time. Although he did not continue to kill the demons, he did not let go of the resources of this tribe. This made the Heavenly Lion Tribe's experts so angry that they gritted their teeth, but they did not dare to say anything.

Then, they went to the other bases. Zi Chen looted them one by one, not letting a single one go.

The demons' anger had reached its limit. They could not wait for the dragonman experts to arrive soon.

The five thousand humans were still following behind. Their fate had long been tied to Zi Chen's. If Zi Chen and the other two won the fierce battle against the dragonman, there would be a place for humans to stay in this area.

If the three of them were defeated, everyone would have to stay here forever.

This was undoubtedly a gamble.

However, seeing the confident expressions of the three of them, the humans were relieved.

The last base that Zi Chen looted was the base of the Heavenly Tiger Tribe. This was a huge base. After looting, the three of them stopped and did not continue to loot.

The three of them who stopped were obviously waiting for the dragonman to arrive.
