A Chance to Pick Up the Scraps, a Decision to Open Up New Territory
quack...
As the tide of Demon Beast that had attacked the "Demon-Suppressing Pass" receded, the six three-zhang-tall, crimson-gold Fire Crow that had attacked also flew back into the "Fire Crow Divine Fire Shield," directly dispersing into nine hundred "Fire Crow Clone," which flew back to the bodies of the Ya Household cultivators, including Ya Zhaoying.
The "Fire Demon-Suppressing Pass Fire Crow Divine Fire Shield" treasure array that shrouded "Demon Suppressing Pass" was also closed.
"You all stay and guard ' Demon-Suppressing Pass,' I'm going to check outside the pass!" At this moment, Ya Zhaoying gave an order to the group of Ya Household cultivators, then piloted her Third Tier treasure boat out of "Demon-Suppressing Pass" and flew towards the depths of the southern mountains. Judging from the direction she was flying, she was clearly heading towards the direction where the Fifth Tier Demon Race was undergoing tribulation and where he was killed.
Clearly, Ya Zhaoying wanted to take this opportunity to go to the place where True Lord Bi Household killed the Fifth Tier Demon Race and see if she could get some benefits.
Although, it is true that the True Lord of the Bi Household must have cleaned up the battlefield after killing the Fifth Tier Demon Race.
However, it's hard to guarantee Bi Household True Lord Bi won't be too picky and only take away the resources and spiritual items he deems worthy, leaving behind some unworthy resources and spiritual items on the battlefield.
For Ya Zhaoying, a Third Tier Purple Mansion cultivator, what Nascent Soul True Lord might not value is a precious treasure to her and the Ya Household.
Even if she only collects some blood, bits of flesh, or fragments of fur left behind by fallen Fifth Tier Demon Race in the Fifth Tier battlefield, it would undoubtedly be a great gain.
Kong Wenxuan watched Ya Zhaoying, piloting Third Tier treasure boat, plunged into the southern mountains. He couldn't hide the envy in his eyes, and even felt an urge to try it himself, wanting to pilot his "Peacock Feather Boat" and follow her into the southern mountains.
Even if he didn't have the strength to rush into the Fifth Tier -Fifth Tier battlefield and pick up scraps there, the Bi Household army had still left behind a lot of resource areas by wiping out many Demon Race in the southern mountains.
The final counterattack of the Fifth Tier Demon Race shattered a large area of the southern mountains, even turning it into numerous broken mountains, peaks, and boulders that flew in all directions, creating many "Flying Peak" in the southern mountains.
Those "Flying Peak" were originally located near the cave abode Fifth Tier Demon Race, and were undoubtedly rare spiritual lands and resource sites. If one could seize one or two "Flying Peak", one might be able to collect some rare Fourth Tier or Fifth Tier spiritual materials and resources from them.
These things undoubtedly attracted him greatly.
"Wenxuan!" At this moment, the clan chief Kong Changgeng stopped him, curbing his impulsive actions. He shook his head and said, "The southern mountains are too chaotic right now. You don't have Senior Ya Zhaoying's cultivation and strength, so don't act recklessly."
Upon hearing this, Kong Wenxuan took a deep breath, nodded, and said to the clan leader, "Clan leader, rest assured, I cherish my life and won't do anything reckless."
As the clan leader said, although the Fifth Tier Demon Race in the southern mountains had been killed by the Bi Household's True Lord, and even the Demon Race entrenched in the southern mountains had been wiped out by the Bi Household's army, even if they were not completely wiped out, they must have suffered heavy losses and it would probably be difficult for them to recover for a long time.
However, this does not mean that the mountains to the south are safe.
Previously, due to the Fifth Tier Demon Race race undergoing tribulation, the Bi Household army's cleanup operation, and the battle in which the Bi Household True Lord killed the Fifth Tier Demon Race race, the southern mountains were greatly shaken. A large number of Demon Beast and birds of various orders rushed out of the mountains, turning into Demon Beast tide that swept in all directions.
Now, although the great war has ended and the Fifth Tier Demon Race has been killed, the horde of Demon Beast that had been sweeping across the land is showing signs of dissipating.
However, precisely because of this, with good books and stories accompanying them every day, the situation in the southern mountains is now in chaos. The Demon Beast and birds that originally occupied and lived in various places, whether they were First Tier, Second Tier Demon Beast, or possibly Third Tier or Fourth Tier Demon Beast, have mostly left their respective places and are running around randomly in the southern mountains, even fighting and killing each other for spiritual lands and resources.
If Kong Wenxuan were to rush into the southern mountains at this moment, he would be fine if he encountered First Tier or Second Tier Demon Beast, as he could basically deal with and kill them; however, it was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't encounter Third Tier, or even possibly Fourth Tier, Demon Beast that had left their entrenched places and were running around the mountains, or were returning to their entrenched places.
These are things he cannot withstand or deal with now; he will likely perish in the mountains to the south.
With his Third Tier Purple Mansion Stage cultivation and the protection of Third Tier treasure ship, Ya Zhaoying had a slight chance of rushing into the Fifth Tier battlefield to pick up the scraps. He didn't have that kind of strength or resources.
Thinking of this, Kong Wenxuan couldn't help but sigh, lamenting the pity.
Such an opportunity created by Fifth Tier battle is not easy to come by. If he misses this opportunity, he and the Kong Household may not have such a chance to take advantage of another opportunity.
Unfortunately, he has only been at the Foundation Establishment Realm for a few months, and even the "Five Elements Divine Swords" in his hand is only First Tier Law Artifact, with limited combat power and strength.
If he now possesses the cultivation level of the Foundation Establishment Late Stage, his "Five Elements Divine Swords" has already been upgraded to the Second Tier Spirit Artifact level.
No matter what, he was determined to rush into the southern mountains. Even if he couldn't go as deep as the Fifth Tier battlefield to scavenge any remaining loot, he would at least scavenge the remaining loot in the nearby "Flying Peak".
Seeing that Kong Wenxuan truly had no intention of rushing out, clan chief Kong Changgeng felt relieved, but he also sighed, "Such a rare opportunity, it's a pity we missed it due to our insufficient strength!"
Seeing this, Kong Wenxuan smiled and instead comforted the clan leader, saying, "No matter what, this is a good thing, isn't it?"
"Senior Ya Zhaoying, you must have gained a lot by going to the Fifth Tier battlefield to scavenge for loot. But our Kong Household didn't come away empty-handed either."
"The Bi Household army has wiped out the Demon Race in the southern mountains and killed another Fifth Tier Demon Race, which is practically equivalent to clearing out the southern mountains."
"Once the chaotic Demon Beast in these mountains settle down and each takes their place according to their rank, the danger in the southern mountains will be greatly reduced."
"Our Kong Household no longer needs to hesitate about whether to establish a county here at ' Demon-Suppressing Pass ' or to expand our territory in the southern mountains and build ' Peacock County '."
"Such a great opportunity is the perfect time for our Kong Household to expand our territory!"
Upon hearing this, clan chief Kong Changgeng's eyes lit up, and he nodded, saying, "This is indeed a good gain."
Hearing their conversation, Yan Zhiyu, the head of the Yan Lineage, couldn't help but ask, "Has your Kong Household decided to send troops to develop ' Peacock County ' in the southern mountains?"
"That's right!" Clan Chief Kong Changgeng nodded, then added, "However, you all don't need to worry. Although we've decided to expand our territory, it won't happen in the short term; it will take at least three to five years."
"During this time, we should first stabilize the current chaotic situation in the southern mountains. At the same time, our Kong Household also needs time to increase its strength. We should also take this time to explore the southern mountains and find the most suitable place to expand our territory and establish a county town."
"You and Wan Quan have time to rebuild your clan's strength; prepare accordingly."
