Chapter 457: Chapter 405: Set off, Slay the Demon

Translator: 549690339

Millions of mighty armies moved out in a grandiose manner, a sight so grandiose it blocked out the sun. The excellent commanding abilities of Wang Boan were fully unleashed at this moment.

Commanding an army of millions was no easy task for any seasoned generals, but for Wang Boan, it was as effortless as eating and drinking.

As the grand army set out for battle, the beasts in the plains, whose intelligence had been awakened by the demon race, naturally got involved. Countless wolves, insects, tigers, and leopards surged forward. Both herbivores and carnivores put aside their fights and charged towards the human army together.

Pei Xuanjing and Xue Hanyi among others stood on a mountain peak, surrounded by some excellent Taoist warriors led by Pang Hong.

“Pang Hong, you and the followers of the Taoist School take action too. You can’t partake in the upcoming events,” Pei Xuanjing commanded coolly, gazing at the distance where humans and beasts were battling, his back was facing the crowd.

“Yes, I obey your command!” Pang Hong responded with a fist salute.

In the next moment, Pang Hong, along with the excellent Taoist warriors, rushed forth down the mountain.

Pei Xuanjing paid no more attention to them. He turned to his companion and said, “Let’s search for the demon race, as they are not showing up.”

At present, besides Xue Hanyi and others, there was Mu Binghua from the Heart Moon Lake, Mr. Wu from the Witch Deity Teaching, Maitreya Sect Leader Zhao Baiyang, Demonic Cult Leader Xue Wuheng, the Old Heavenly Master from Dragon Tiger Mountain, Qingxu, and two god monks Wu Fa and Wu Xiang from Buddhism School.

Just recently, these individuals have accomplished the Spirit Realm Second Layer, becoming almost all Spirit Realm experts, not even a single one was on the Spirit Realm Onefold, the least among them was on the Spirit Realm Second Layer.

“Great!”

“With Brother Pei here, takedown will be like catching!” Zhao Baiyang laughed heartily.

They had been waiting here for a long time, hoping for the powerhouses of the demon race to appear to make a joint attack. But their opponents seemed too cautious and never exposed themselves. Hence, they had to take the initiative in their hands.

Zhao Baiyang didn’t quite like such watch-and-wait strategies. If they were powerful enough, they should simply go and beat them directly instead of wasting time.

Now that Pei Xuanjing no longer adopted the watch-and-wait strategy, he was naturally pleased.

What Pei Xuanjing and others didn’t know was that the forces of the demon race were not unwilling to take immediate action. The news General Bei gave was of too much importance. They had to witness it themselves to confirm its authenticity.

Other than every force having strong individuals of a certain level residing in them, and meeting the resources requirement, the most important thing, amongst all, was having a dragon vein.

Dragon vein meant having a land with a constant supply of Heaven and Earth Essence Qi, capable of nurturing heavenly and earthly treasures, a great place for cultivation, as well as Qi Luck.

Just like the Xue ancient country where Xue Hanyi and others resided, the possession of an imperial level dragon vein had guaranteed its strength.

In the Sky Wasteland, only those stepping into the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm could be considered true powerhouses. They were eligible to pursue longevity and find the mythical immortals.

Unfortunately, each step in the cultivation of the Spiritual Realm is incredibly difficult. Countless individuals have been stopped at the threshold between the Spirit Realm Sixth Level and the Spirit Realm Seventh Level. No matter how talented they were, many couldn’t cross this barrier for a long time.

For these great demons, even if they were talented, it was not guaranteed that they could reach the Spirit Realm Seventh Level in the future. They knew that unless they received the support of their respective races, otherwise, the Spirit Realm Sixth Level would be their ultimate level. Progressing any further would be difficult.

After all, there were too many talented individuals in the demon race. They could not be considered top-ranked, so they would not get the support of the entire race. They needed to find their cultivation resources to fuel their cultivation journeys.

The news about this Spirit Vein undoubtedly gave them a glimmer of hope, which was, undoubtedly, the opportunity they had been desperately seeking.

They had initially risked coming to the ancestral land knowing that after Heaven and Earth Essence Qi’s revival, the ancestral land would undergo drastic transformations, with many opportunities appearing, leading them further in their cultivation path.

Upon receiving this news, all the great demons believed it as their reward for risky journeys to the ancestral land. Not a single great demon was willing to give up this chance.

Because if they could use the Spirit Vein for their cultivation, it would be greatly beneficial. It would enhance their cultivation base and give them an edge in their eventual breakthrough to the Seventh Level of the Spiritual Realm.

It should not be misunderstood that this dragon vein was only useful for the human race; in fact, it was equally useful to the demon race.

If this Spirit Vein was indeed a dragon vein containing Qi Luck, they could use it to establish their demon nation. Even if they could not fully occupy it in the future, they could take advantage of this opportunity to make their cultivation better. This would give them an upper hand in the demon nation and win huge benefits.

Or, even if it wasn’t, or if they could not fight against the human race, as long as they could buy enough time and use the worst method to divide this Spirit Vein directly, do not wait for its maturity, just the spiritual source of the Spirit Vein alone would be a priceless treasure for cultivation.

“Since this Spirit Vein is correct, we must go all out.” One of the great demons declared as soon as he confirmed the Spirit Vein’s authenticity.

With their means and insights, they were a bit short in confirming whether it was a dragon vein, but they could definitely confirm that this was an extraordinary Spirit Vein. As long as there was a Spirit Vein at the base, it was worth their shot.

Everyone has to know, among all these great demons who arrived, which one did not have a trump card?

The previous evasion was because there were no benefits, and they did not want to fight for Wolf King. So, they feared the ends and the means.

Now they saw tangible benefits and did not mind going all out!

Even Pei Xuanjing did not expect that the dragon vein outside the border would be discovered by these demon races, spurring them to make a desperate stand.

After all, such a temptation was irresistible to these great demons because they knew this was a once-in-a-thousand-year opportunity. If they missed it, they might never get another chance in a lifetime.

Just as these great demons made their decision, Pei Xuanjing, along with ten other Spirit Realm powerhouses, arrived deep in the demon race’s stronghold.

All these eleven individuals who had reached the Spirit Realm Second Layer were skilled. The remaining beasts’ resistance efforts, even if there were over a dozen of Spirit Realm Onefold demons, were barely effective.

“Humans, damned!”

Seeing Pei Xuanjing and others killing wantonly, the group of great demons were furious.
