Seven days ago, Human Race appeared on the outskirts of the Dark Cloud Mountain Range, and most of the surrounding Sin Beast were slaughtered.
When this news reached them, it nearly scared the Gold-Devouring Spider to death; it thought a large Human Race army had arrived.
Just as the Gold-Devouring Spider were preparing to flee, they learned that it was not Human Race army that had come, but a Human Race was only at the Platinum Second Grade.
Upon hearing this news, the Gold-Devouring Spider naturally did not believe it.
Let alone a Human Race at the Platinum Second Grade, even if it had reached the Diamond Third Grade, it wouldn't dare say it could kill thousands of the Platinum Realm Sin Beast in a single day.
After much investigation, even though it didn't want to believe it, it was confirmed that a Human Race had almost wiped out the entire outer perimeter.
It wasn't stupid. Since this Human Race had the ability to slaughter so many subordinates, his strength must be extremely powerful, and it might not even be a match for him.
Just as it was considering whether to flee the area, news spread.
That Human Race actually told the Sin Beast of the Dark Cloud Mountain Range to wash their necks and wait, and even said that they could escape, since escaping is the nature of vermin.
Although the Gold-Devouring Spider was furious, it did not lose its mind. After its subordinates investigated, it learned that the news came from a black tiger of Platinum First Grade.
They immediately brought the black tiger over and questioned it in detail, only to find out that the Human Race was deliberately mocking them.
Although the Gold-Devouring Spider was uneasy, it knew that as the overlord of the Dark Cloud Mountain Range, if it ran away after hearing the other party's threat, who would dare to follow it in the future?
It immediately summoned all the Sin Beast of the Dark Cloud Mountain Range, just to wait for that Human Race to come to its door.
Even if he couldn't win the fight, with so many subordinates around, he wouldn't have a problem escaping.
Unexpectedly, seven days have passed, and the Human Race has still not appeared.
This infuriated the Gold-Devouring Spider. It had actually gathered all its subordinates here in such a grand manner because of the other party's threat. If word got out, wouldn't it be ridiculed to death by other Sin Beast of the same realm?
"Reporting to the chief, there is no news of that Human Race." At this moment, a Shadow Leopard spoke up.
The Gold-Devouring Spider's heart sank. Had it really been tricked?
"The Human Race must have been afraid to show himself because he saw us all gathered together and had a leader present."
As soon as the Shadow Leopard finished speaking, another voice rang out, this time from a Platinum Ninth Grade Poison Demon Rat.
"With the leader here, how could the Human Race dare to come again? They're probably hiding in the Heavenly Vault Pass right now, afraid the leader will kill them," the Poison Demon Rat continued.
These words made the Gold-Devouring Spider's expression soften a bit. Although what the other party said was nonsense and it wouldn't dare to approach the Heavenly Vault Pass at all, the words were still pleasant to hear.
The Shadow Leopard glanced at the Poison Demon Rat and muttered under its breath, "Sycophant."
"Chief, shall we send our men back?" Shadow Leopard asked.
The Gold-Devouring Spider pondered for a few seconds, then said, "No rush. Let's wait another day. If that Human Race still hasn't come, then it proves he won't be coming. We can then dismiss our subordinates."
The Shadow Leopard felt that the other party was being too cautious, but dared not refute it.
Outside the Dark Cloud Mountain Range.
"I wonder if these Sin Beast have gathered together."
With a thought, Lin An summoned three Xuan Mystic Shadow Puppet, which transformed into three streaks of light and flew rapidly into the mountain range.
He had set up Aura Concealment Formation on all three puppets so that they wouldn't be discovered by the Sin Beast beforehand.
Besides, even if they find out, it doesn't matter; they can just kill them.
"There isn't a single Sin Beast left on the outer perimeter. Could it be that they've all gathered in the inner perimeter?"
Half an hour later, after searching for a long time, the three puppets still hadn't found a single Sin Beast. Lin An's gaze couldn't help but turn to the inner area.
"Go to the inner perimeter and you'll find out."
Thinking it over, Lin An had the three puppets lead the way, while he followed behind.
Another half hour passed, and Lin An entered the inner area. Soon, the puppets discovered a large number of Sin Beast around a mountain peak.
"They really did gather together."
Lin An smiled, his gaze fixed on the mountain peak before him.
If he wasn't mistaken, this mountain peak was the location of the overlord of the Dark Cloud Mountain Range.
Lin An then used the puppet to investigate and discovered that more than four thousand Sin Beast had gathered here.
Apart from the approximately three thousand Sin Beast that escaped from the outer perimeter seven days ago, the remaining one thousand Sin Beast are all from the inner perimeter, and are mostly at least Platinum Seventh Grade.
Their numbers are naturally incomparable to the Sin Beast in the Spirit Realm, but that's to be expected.
The Sin Beast within the Spirit Realm have almost no intelligence and a weak sense of territory.
The Sin Beast from the outside world are different; they have a strong sense of territory, and each Sin Beast will occupy an area.
"It's more worthwhile to farm attribute points in the Spirit Realm. There are more resources there, the opponents are weaker, and if you can't beat them, you can just run away," Lin An thought to himself.
Although there are fewer Sin Beast now, he certainly won't let them go since they're already here.
It's also a good opportunity to test his Thundercloud All-Slaying Formation with these Sin Beast.
Swish, swish, swish...
Lin An immediately released all thirty-six puppets, and at the same time distributed a formation flag to each puppet.
"Go."
As soon as Lin An finished speaking, the thirty-six puppets transformed into streaks of light and disappeared from the spot.
After about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the thirty-six puppets had already surrounded the entire mountain peak.
"Bedbugs, your nightmare has arrived."
Lin An immediately shouted and flew into the air.
On the mountain peak, thousands of Sin Beast Sin Beast, who were bored out of their minds, were all taken aback when they heard this voice, and most of them trembled in their hearts.
These Sin Beast had previously escaped from Lin An's grasp. Now, upon hearing Lin An's voice again, the scene from seven days ago resurfaced in their minds, instilling in them an instinctive sense of fear.
"It's him, it's him."
"The demon! The demon is here! He's here to kill us!"
"What do we do? Where is the leader? Why hasn't the leader appeared yet? Quickly, kill that demon!"
"It's over, it's over, we're all going to die here."
"..."
With just one sentence, most of the Sin Beast began to crumble.
The scene of mountains of corpses and seas of blood seven days ago had deeply traumatized them. In their eyes, Lin An was like a demon god, and they found it difficult to resist just by hearing his voice.
The flaws of their intelligence were revealed at this moment; fear took hold of the hearts of these Sin Beast before them.
If they were the Sin Beast of the Spirit Realm, they would know no fear and would have already charged forward.
"Shut up, all of you! A mere Human Race dares to instill such fear in you? You're a disgrace to us Sin Beast!"
"Hmph, a bunch of useless trash. They dare to dream of becoming stronger with such a lack of willpower. No wonder they can only live on the outskirts."
"With our leader here, what is there to fear from mere Human Race? Watch how we skin them alive!"
Anyone who retreats or flees will be killed without mercy!
"..."
The Sin Beast in the inner perimeter had never felt the oppressive aura emanating from Lin An, so naturally they were not afraid.
These Sin Beast were at least Platinum Seventh Grade, and the aura emanating from them as they spoke deterred the nearly defeated Sin Beast from making any further rash moves.
"They're all good beasts; they even helped me stabilize morale and prevent the other Sin Beast from running amok."
Lin An nodded in satisfaction as he watched this scene.
He felt these good beasts should be rewarded.
A painless death is the greatest gift he can give now.
