A Clumsy Way to Search for the Demon Race's Stronghold

Kong Wenxuan tested the power of the Second Tier "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation" on this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast for the first time, and gained a clear understanding of his current combat strength.
It should be said that he is confident in facing any enemy of the same rank.
However, it's still somewhat difficult to deal with enemies of a higher rank than one of the Third Tier ranks.
Although the "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation" combined with the Second Tier "Black Water Divine Sword Momentum Accumulation" could break through the defenses of Third Tier Black Tiger Demon Beast and even injure it.
However, these techniques of breaking through defenses and inflicting damage are subject to numerous limitations.
First, he relied on the blue-red starlight emanating from the "Bifang Jade Token" bestowed by the Bifang Commandery to protect himself from the attack of the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast, which gave him the strength to attack the opponent with all his might.
Without such defense, he wouldn't even be able to fight Third Tier enemy head-on, let alone slowly Momentum Accumulation and unleash his strongest attack.
Secondly, if Kong Wenxuan wanted to unleash this strongest attack, he had to confine his opponent within the "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation" and use the illusion technique "Peacock Spreads Its Tail" to make the opponent sluggish, unaware of how to dodge or escape. Only then would he have enough time to slowly activate the sword formation and Momentum Accumulation his attack, thus breaking through the opponent's defense and injuring him!
However, once the opponent awakens from the illusion's sluggishness and tries to break through with all their might, his Second Tier "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation" will be able to trap them, not to mention the "Black Water Divine Sword"'s Momentum Accumulation attack, slowly eroding their flesh and blood and taking their life.
Just like this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast, Kong Wenxuan only needed to Momentum Accumulation for one attack before the beast woke up and broke through the "Lesser Five Elements Sword Formation" to rush out, giving him no chance to Momentum Accumulation for a second attack.
Therefore, theoretically speaking, Kong Wenxuan's strongest attack now already has some of the characteristics of a cross-level combat power.
In reality, however, he is still far from being able to fight across ranks, or even kill enemies across ranks.
After weighing the gains and losses in his mind, Kong Wenxuan shook his head. Looking at the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast had broken through the encirclement, he decided not to continue the pursuit. After all, he did not have the strength to defeat the opponent across tiers. Even if he continued the pursuit, it would be a waste of the energy in the Bifang Jade Token ".
At that moment, he summoned the "Cuckoo Feather Boat Feather Boat," preparing to board it and continue searching for the Demon Race's hidden stronghold.
Aww!
However, just after Kong Wenxuan summoned the "Cuckoo Feather Boat," he suddenly discovered that the fleeing Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast seemed to be even more frightened. After letting out a miserable howl, it ran away at an even faster speed.
In fact, the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast originally fled towards the western mountain peak where it came from, but after Kong Wenxuan summoned the "Cuckoo Feather Boat," it was so frightened that it changed direction and fled instead of daring to return to the nearby western mountain peak.
"This..." Kong Wenxuan looked at the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast that had fled in panic, then looked down at the "Cuckoo Feather Boat" he had summoned, lost in thought.
This "Cuckoo Feather Boat" was crafted by Kong Yuyan and his clan's weapon-refining disciples using the feathers and bones of several Second Tier Cuckoo Demon Race he had slain. Naturally, its overall shape resembles Cuckoo, and it also possesses some of the aura and power of the Cuckoo Demon Race.
The Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast was clearly frightened by the Cuckoo- like appearance, Cuckoo Demon Race aura, and imposing presence of the "Cuckoo Feather Boat," which is why it fled in such a panic.
Kong Wenxuan recalled that this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast had once been controlled and driven by the Third Tier Cuckoo Demon Race of the Du Household, forming the "Five Elements Demon Array" with four other Third Tier Demon Beast. After the demon array was broken, it was forced to fight desperately against the Purple Mansion cultivator Ya Zhaoying under the command of the Third Tier Cuckoo Demon Race, and even suffered many wounds on its body.
Only after Ya Zhaoying killed the Third Tier Cuckoo Demon Race did the controlled and manipulated Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast finally escape free.
"So, this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast was originally controlled and driven by the Cuckoo Demon Race, and it retains a stress response to the appearance and aura of the Cuckoo Demon Race?"
"Upon seeing my ' Cuckoo Feather Boat,' they all thought they had encountered the Cuckoo Demon Race again, and were so frightened that they fled in panic?"
"If that's really the case..." Kong Wenxuan's mind raced, and he suddenly thought of a clumsy way to find the Demon Race's stronghold: this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast might know where the Demon Race's stronghold is!
Although the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast lacked intelligence and could not communicate with the other party to find out where the Demon Race's stronghold was, he was still able to do so.
Kong Wenxuan didn't have any soul-searching Law Technique or methods; he simply searched the mind of the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast to find out where the Demon Race clan's stronghold was.
However, he could try to keep chasing and driving away this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast.
Doing so will ultimately lead to three possibilities.
One possibility is that, under his pursuit and expulsion, this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast finally had nowhere to go and fled back to the Demon Race stronghold where the Du Household was located.
So, by chasing after this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast, he directly found the Demon Race's stronghold.
So, by chasing after this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast, he directly found the Demon Race's stronghold.
The second possibility is that this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast is too afraid of the Demon Race's stronghold where the Du Household is located. No matter how he chases and drives it away, the beast just doesn't dare to approach the Demon Race clan's stronghold.
So, all he needs to do during this chase and drive-away process is record all the places where this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast never dares to approach.
Afterwards, by slowly exploring these places, we can eventually find the strongholds of the Demon Race race.
The last possibility is that this Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast had no idea where the Demon Race's stronghold was and just ran away haphazardly the whole time, making his efforts futile.
But regardless, a two-thirds probability is enough for him to take the gamble.
In any case, Kong Wenxuan had no other clues about finding the Demon Race's stronghold, so this gamble was at least a direction to try.
It's better than aimlessly flying, wandering, and trying your luck deep in the "South Lake Mountains".
With a thought racing through his mind, Kong Wenxuan quickly made a decision. He stepped onto the "Feather Boat Cuckoo Feather Boat" that he had summoned, activating and unleashing its full power, making it resemble an Cuckoo Demon Race even more. He then chased after the fleeing Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast.
Chirp! Jiujiu...
Furthermore, under Kong Wenxuan's urging, a phantom of Cuckoo even materialized on the "Cuckoo Feather Boat Feather Boat," raising its head and emitting Cuckoo cries.
Aww!
The Third Tier black tiger demon Demon Beast that was fleeing in panic ahead was even more frightened upon hearing the Cuckoo's cry. After letting out a whimper, it became even more panicked and quickly fled into the distance.
Although this black tiger is Third Tier Demon Beast, it ultimately cannot fly and can only run on the ground and in the mountains. No matter how fast it is, it is no match for the speed at which Kong Wenxuan pilots the Second Tier "Cuckoo Feather Boat" in the sky.
Therefore, Kong Wenxuan didn't need to worry about losing the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast. He only needed to keep a close eye on it, and whenever it stopped to rest in a certain place, he would chase after it to check if it was Demon Race stronghold, thus scaring the Third Tier black tiger Demon Beast away again.
