Three minutes later.
The valley that had once been filled with towering Demonic Qi had become a place of utter silence.
Charred corpses still flickering with black lightning lay scattered across the scorched ground.
The stench of blood mingled with the smell of burnt flesh, permeating the air.
Xu Jingming hovered in midair as the lightning around him slowly receded.
With a thought, a pale blue system panel unfolded in his mind.
[Origin Points]: 7.83 billion
"It went up by over a billion Origin Points."
Xu Jingming murmured softly.
The gains from a single ambush had been fairly substantial.
This was far more efficient than hunting them down one by one.
"But compared to the Insect Race, it's still far too little."
Still, he could not help shaking his head, a trace of regret flashing through his eyes.
If it had been over a hundred Insect Race Mother Nests instead, with their endless Insect Sea tactics...
Who knew how many Origin Points he could harvest?
"Master."
Linyin flew to his side and respectfully lowered her head.
"This servant has collected all the demon corpses."
She held a dark purple storage ring in her hand, with all the spoils neatly stacked inside.
"Not bad."
Xu Jingming nodded in satisfaction as he accepted the ring.
Having a slave really was convenient. He did not need to handle everything personally.
He then swept his gaze over the valley and said, "Clean up the traces here."
Although Linyin had already been enslaved by him, she would ultimately have to infiltrate the Demon Race again.
Since that was the plan, the abnormal deaths of these demons could not be discovered by anyone else.
"Yes."
Linyin answered and waved her jade-like hand.
Purple-black Demonic Qi swept across the area, incinerating the corpses and bloodstains
