“This guy from the human race is a Controller, and he’s not just any ordinary Controller…”
“His one attack seem very terrifying, I wonder how much Divine Power it contains…”
At this moment, the Demon Clan gathered in the deepest part of the chicken coop begin discussing amongst themselves.
Their strength wasn’t all that great, only around the level of a Destroyer, and they couldn’t gauge the might of Du Gang’s previous attack, but they knew it was a very exaggerated attack, at least stronger than any of the strongest they had seen.
“What should we do now?”
“I have no clue. That guy is blocking the entrance, we don’t know what he wants…”
A smarter Demon casually stated: “What else could he do? He’s specifically seizing our essences but not killing us. Clearly, he intends to make us his tools for harvesting essences…”
“Ah? What do we do now, do we tell the others?”
“How to tell? Apart from us abandoning our bodies, and letting the deities go back to inform the others, what other ways are there?”
Hearing this, all the demons present fell silent, with the scene falling into a moment of cold silence. Soon enough, a demon of high-ranking stepped forward and said: “Lower races, be aware of your station…”
As soon as he finished speaking, a demon stood forward without hesitation, his deity instantly rose into the air, flying towards the outer area.
After he left, the other demons breathed a sigh of relief. “Next, all we need to do is wait… wait for our stronger demons to arrive…”
“What if the chickens respawn?”
A Demon asked a crucial question.
A few high-ranking Demons after some contemplation, declared: “We fight. He wants our essences, we give them to him. Compared to essences, I’d rather not spend my money on rebuilding my body…”
Indeed, essences are free, a product of labyrinth, whereas remodelling their bodies cost them money.
“Okay, let’s do that. Give him the essences if he wants them, fight the chickens once they respawn, wait until our stronger demons arrive. We’ll make him spit out whatever he has taken…”
After noticing the Demons stopped making a fuss, Du Gang did not bother with them. As long as the people didn’t leave, it was fine. As for calling for backup, he didn’t care. In any case, he could gather almost fifty Naer divine power in one go, meaning he could gather the limit of the First-level essence in two days time.
Besides, even if the stronger demons came, he was not afraid. He could just teleport back to the ruins if needed.
A single essence took one minute to absorb, and he could absorb up to a hundred essences at a time. This time, he spent a full fifty minutes to absorb the five thousand first-level essence he had acquired.
Just in time, an hour later the chickens respawned.
When he got up, he noticed the demons were fighting the chickens as if they couldn’t see him at all.
“Quite aware, aren’t you!”
Du Gang commented approvingly. Since these demons were so aware, he naturally wouldn’t bother to kill them. After all, unless he used the Jie-Character Secret, it was almost impossible for him to kill the demons along with their deities.
Without any hesitation, Du Gang acted again, sprinting quickly into the chicken coop.
In that moment, he was like a landowner with property, wildly harvesting essences from the hands of the demons.
These demons, as if resigned to their fate, showed no resistance to his actions. Some even voluntarily threw out the essence in their hands.
This time, Du Gang managed to gather the essences at an even faster rate, and like last time, he gathered a total of over five thousand essences.
At the same time, when he returned to the entrance of the chicken coop, approximately two hundred demons had already escaped.
The remaining people didn’t want to escape, but they were too far from the entrance and were intercepted by Du Gang before they could get very far.
“Over two hundred demons have run away, meaning my efficiency will drop by a fifth…”
Du Gang contemplated. This meant he would need to use a few more hours to reach the limit level of the First-Level essence.
However, this was still faster than the average person spending a day to only get twenty-four essences then needing to spend seven or eight years non-stop to reach the limit, and even then, a certain level of strength was required.
“Stay back!”
At the moment, the remaining eight hundred or so demons, many of whom were crowded around the entrance respawn point, were waiting for their chance to escape just like before.
After Du Gang called out and found that these demons still remained unmoved, he snapped: “Dare to disobey me?”
Saying so, without another word, he punched out, killing the demon that was nearest to the exit.
“Bang!”
The demon didn’t even have time to resist before it was instantly obliterated, a deity flying out from the body.
Its face was full of confusion, not knowing why it had been destroyed.
“Out!” freewebnoveℓ.com
Du Gang shouted angrily. This time, all the demons finally understood, or rather, they guessed what Du Gang meant.
The remaining eight hundred or so demons did not hesitate any longer and quickly moved into the chicken coop, going back to their original positions and only then did they stop.
Seeing the demons obediently return to their positions, Du Gang finally returned satisfied to the entrance and once again began refining Essences.
…….
“Kill! There’s no retreat…”
Outside the Big Dragon Pit, the battle between the human and the demon races of over twenty thousand strong had heated up to a point of intensity.
The human side still found themselves at a disadvantage due to their fewer numbers. After a fierce fight lasting more than an hour, their numbers had diminished, and they were on the verge of retreating.
Neither side had many fighters left. There were only slightly over five thousand on the human side, while the Demon clan still had over ten thousand. The Demon Clan had the upper hand.
At this point in the fight, some began to consider retreating. Between honor and two hundred Divine Crystals, some consider honor important, but to some others, the Divine Crystals were a bit more tempting.
Given the current losing streak, it was normal for some to consider retreating.
Unlike the humans who were on the brink of defeat, the demons were still full of zeal, chasing the humans relentlessly, determined to wipe them out.
Quite a lot of years had passed, they hadn’t killed this freely in a long time. In recent years, the balance was maintained most times and a situation like this was rare.
“You mean to say that the human race quietly went behind us to the wilderness?”
“Correct! Our wilderness’s chicken coop has been occupied by him…”
At this moment, the temporary commander of the Demon Clan frowned and contemplated the news brought back by the messenger from the chicken coop.
After a moment, he asked again: “How many humans went there?”
No wonder the human front lines were falling back gradually. So, they had sent people to their rear.
Interesting…
The commander stroked his beard and squinted his eyes. While he was pondering the enemy’s tactics, the messenger once again stated:
“None, just one person…”
“Huh?”
The commander halted for a moment. “One person?”
The demon messenger affirmed by nodding: “Yes, truly just one person. However, he is very strong. He managed to ward off our group attack with just one move…”
“One move?”
The commander’s pupils contracted as he rapidly inquired about the specific details.
After fully understanding, he finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was expecting someone different, but it seems like the person only mastered the Supreme Technique, with the level of cultivation progress only about a hundred or two.
Without any hesitation, he said directly: “We’ll discuss what’s happening in the wilderness later, I can’t leave the front line now. Let’s talk about it after the fight here is over…”
Compared to securing the Big Dragon’s Pit, the incident they encountered in their own wilderness was of little importance.
Du Gang had assumed that the powerful members of the Demon Clan would quickly arrive at the chicken coop, but five hours passed before a team of Controllers from the Demon Clan finally showed up.
{c=Andrew}This team of Controllers was strong; two of them had reached the level of two hundred Naer Divine Power technique, and the other three also had over one hundred Naer Divine Power technique.
With their strength, they could almost certainly handle anyone on the first level of the abyss. Even if they were dealing with a Second Tribulation divine spirit or an ordinary Third Tribulation divine spirit, they could still give it a try.
Unfortunately for them, they encountered Du Gang.
“Ula!”
Upon arriving at the scene, the five Demon Clan powerhouses did not hesitate to start the fight right away.
They held looks of disdain. To them, Du Gang was just a cowardly escapee from the front line who sneaked to the rear to attack and bully ordinary Destroyers, and they looked down on him.
They instantly unleashed five incredibly powerful attacks that were aimed right at Du Gang.
Seeing this, Du Gang did not hold back.
Jie-Character Secret activated!
Tenfold combat power increase!
“Sa!”
Du Gang didn’t confront the attacks head-on. These five attacks were far more terrifying than the power released by any previous Demon Clan attacks, so taking them head-on would have been meaningless.
Under the effect of the Tenfold combat power increase, his speed reached an extreme. He evaded these five attacks at an incredible speed and launched a counter-attack.
“Sky Breaking Stance!”
His current level was quite high. Even without drawing a spearm, he could easily cast the Sky Breaking Stance.
When one reaches this level in a technique, it isn’t limited to a specific weapon anymore.
Of course, in a top-level duel, he would need a physical weapon. However, despite being weaponless, under tenfold enhancement, they wouldn’t be able to withstand his attack!
“Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!” “Bang!”
The sounds of five consecutive explosions rang out. The previously arrogant Demon Clan team was instantly wiped out in that moment.
“Wha…?!”
Many members of the Demon Clan who were lurking in the vicinity of the battlefield, quietly observing the situation, were taken aback by this scene.
“Even a Controller team can’t take him down?”
“Who on earth is this guy?!”
Fear filled their eyes. They had initially thought they could escape, but now, even the five Controllers who came to rescue them had been killed.
Du Gang didn’t chase after these five Divine Spirits. After all, killing a physical body and killing a Divine Spirit were two different concepts.
There were many eyes around at the moment. He couldn’t possibly get rid of all the hundreds of Demon Clan Divine Spirits, so he let them escape.
“What are you looking at? Get the hell back!”
Seeing the Demon Clan members hiding around, Du Gang roared, which scared them to rush back.
Five hours had elapsed, during which his Divine Power had increased immensely by 250 Naer.
Hmm…I should learn the language of the Demon Clan,” he thought. “This way, I could generally know what’s going on their side and when they would send powerful people over…”
A saying goes, ‘know the enemy and know yourself, and you’ll never lose a battle.’ If he could learn in advance some information about the Demon Clan, it would be easier for him to devise a corresponding strategy.
“Besides, the fact that they sent a team of Controllers back indicates that they’ve finished fighting on the front line…”
“I guess the Demon Clan won, right?”
When Du Gang was in the stone platform, he saw the comparison between the two forces; the Demon Clan had almost twice as many people as the Human Clan.
“If the Demon Clan hadn’t won, they probably wouldn’t have bothered to send people here. After all, they had already completed the First-Level Wilderness, and they’ve already collected all the First-Level Essence they could…”
“If they won, they’ll likely send more people. Next time, there could be more than just one Controller team…”
“When that happens…”
Du Gang pondered for a while, then shook his head, “There’s no need to keep fighting head-on. These guys can’t stay here long-term. When a large number of them come, I’ll just retreat…”
He had the stone platform and could make 104 more transfers, so there was no way they would stay in the First-Level Wilderness indefinitely.
As it turned out, the Demon Clan responded faster than Du Gang expected.
He had thought that it would take four to five hours for the Demon Clan to send people again, but just one hour later, the Demon Clan powerhouses arrived.
This time, there were over a dozen teams, all Controller teams. Each one of them was remarkably powerful. The temporary commander who had been in charge of the operations also came with his team.
He wanted to see for himself what this sudden Human Clan powerhouse looked like.
However, to their disappointment, by the time they arrived at the entrance of the chicken coop, Du Gang had already disappeared.
No matter how much they searched, they were unable to find him.
“Where did he go?”
The temporary commander was a bit annoyed, having brought so many people, only for Du Gang to have escaped.
“He was here just now, how did he disappear in the blink of an eye?”
The Demon Clansmen present were perplexed. They had clearly seen Du Gang near the trees not so far away, but now he had vanished. Could he have become invisible?
At the moment, Du Gang was at the stone platform, continuing to observe the virtual map in front of him. The black chess pieces clearly showed the number of the Demon Clan members in the chicken coop wilderness.
Not only that, but he also remembered the black chess pieces representing over fifty new arrivals, and he kept his eyes on them.
“I’ll go back when these powerhouses leave….”
He now held the initiative and could teleport anytime. Thus, he was not in a hurry.
At the same time, he allocated some of his attention to see the situation on the Human Clan side.
First, he looked towards the Big Dragon’s Pit.
About five or six hours ago, there were many people from both sides near the Big Dragon’s Pit, with essentially a massive split between black and white. Now, near the Big Dragon’s Pit, there were only black chess pieces, and the white ones were sparse; they were obviously the scouts.
“These bastards have lost the entire Big Dragon’s Pit! They’re really useless!”
On the other hand, he found that a large number of white chess pieces were gathered near the red monster in the middle of the Human Clan wilderness.
“They must be discussing a plan. The Big Dragon is an important strategic resource which the Human Clan can’t just give up…” freēnovelkiss.com
Next, Du Gang started to contemplate his technique while using the Divine Spirit, while his Divine Thought kept watching the virtual map.
About two hours later, finally, the black chess pieces near the chicken coop, representing the Demon Clan powerhouses, left the area and moved toward the front line’s Big Dragon’s Pit.
“Heh Heh!”
A slight smile appeared on Du Gang’s face. Without any hesitation, he teleported swiftly.
When the enemy advances, I retreat. When the enemy retreats, I advance. Let’s have a long-term play with them!
