The two guessed correctly. Not long after the scouts left, a burst of intense heat and icy coldness emanated from the edge of the battlefield.
Ye Chen and Jian Mengyi couldn't sense it, but based on Ye Xi's reply, the Fire Spirit Orb should be about the strength of a high-level spirit orb, and the mutated Ice Spirit Orb should be about the mid-level.
"That's really generous!" Ye Chen couldn't help but exclaim upon hearing Ye Xi's words. He was always offering rare high-grade spirit beads, and even mid-grade mutated spirit beads. No wonder he was such a big spender.
"My lord, two more groups of dark creatures have arrived in the vicinity!" Ye Ling appeared in the projection and said to Ye Chen with a solemn expression.
"So you really have a backup plan? Do you know what race they are?" Ye Chen nodded and asked.
Since Lin Hu was planning to kill him, he must have made ample preparations. If one attack wasn't enough, he would definitely have a backup plan.
"There wasn't time to investigate, but judging from their aura, they're no weaker than Dark Demons and Abyss Sea Beasts. The strongest of them even has the strength of a 6th-tier beast!" Ye Ling replied.
"Then let's leave it at that. Ye Xi, have the magic crystal bombs in the valley been arranged?"
"All arranged! Ten thousand Tier 3 magic crystal bombs and one thousand Tier 4 magic crystal bombs, ready to be detonated at any time with a single command!"
"Good! Make sure to hide these magic crystal bombs well, and detonate them only after all the dark creatures have entered the valley. Under no circumstances should they be detonated prematurely!"
"Rest assured, sir, I have made all the arrangements!"
Ye Chen nodded. As the chief steward, Ye Xi was quite capable. Now, all that was left was to catch him like a turtle in a jar.
Soon, the auras of fire and ice surged toward the valley. Not only that, but two more terrifying auras also came from the other side.
All the Moon Goddesses and Silver Osmanthus Moon Spirits began to retreat one after another, leaving only the Hou on the outskirts, preparing to detonate the bombs in the valley.
The little guy is small and fast, making him difficult to spot. After detonation, he can also quickly evacuate to avoid being accidentally injured.
With everything ready, the two dragonmen, each holding a spirit orb, rushed into the valley in a panic, even engaging in a symbolic fight with the stone golem.
These members of the clan all possessed third-tier strength, making it extremely easy for them to deal with second-tier, top-tier stone golems. The reason they hadn't acted earlier was simply to avoid being discovered and alerting the enemy.
At this moment, Lin Hu and the others, who were thousands of miles away, watched with anticipation as their clan rushed into the valley, only to find it empty. Their expressions changed drastically.
"Oh no! We've been tricked!" Lin Hu exclaimed in alarm, and immediately tried to call back the members of the clan, but it was too late.
The Frost Demon and the Flame Firebird were very fast. Since they had already detected the aura of the Spirit Orb and stopped fighting to rush towards this side, the time required was naturally very short.
Almost simultaneously, after the clansmen carrying the spirit orbs rushed into the valley, the Ice Demon Spirit and the Demon Flame Firebird had already rushed in.
Several members of the clan hurriedly threw out the spirit orbs and fled for their lives, while the Ice Demon Spirit and the Flame Firebird rushed towards the spirit orbs of their respective attributes without hesitation.
"Chirp~~~" "Woo~~~"
Upon acquiring the Spirit Orb, both powerful figures let out joyful shouts. At the same time, a large number of dark creatures poured in. In addition to the Dark Demons and Abyss Sea Beasts, a brand new race rushed in from the other side of the valley.
"A group of dark predators?" Ye Chen was stunned when he saw the group of dark creatures.
This is really giving us no way out! The high-level Dark Predator race is even more terrifying than the Frost Spirits and the Flame Birds. A new lord race simply cannot withstand it.
These dark predators were quite decisive. After arriving, they didn't rush to clash with the dark demons and abyssal sea beasts. Instead, they searched the valley, as if something was attracting their attention.
"It's actually a Tier 4 predator group! Although there are quite a few Tier 3 beings among them, their numbers are enormous. I'm afraid even the Dark Demons and Abyss Sea Beasts combined wouldn't be a match for them!" Jian Mengyi exclaimed. This group of Dark Predators was extremely large, numbering at least tens of thousands.
The sheer size of the tribe has led to a wide disparity in strength, with the strongest leaders possessing strength as high as 6th rank, while the weakest are even as weak as 2nd rank.
However, this group of dark predators is enough to take down tens of thousands of dark demons and abyssal sea beasts. With some planning, they could even take down ice demons and firebirds.
"We've arrived just in time! I didn't expect Lin Hu to give us such a generous gift. Tell Hou that everyone's here, we can start!" Ye Chen said excitedly. With such a grand event, how good could the Dark Treasure Chest reward be?
"Roar~~~" Upon receiving the order, the little guy, carrying a package of magic crystal bombs on his back, rushed into the valley.
At this moment, a stalemate had formed in the valley. The immense pressure from the Dark Predators made the Ice Demon and the Flame Firebird hesitant to attack. Each of them led a group of dark creatures, constantly letting out threatening roars at the Dark Predators.
On the other hand, the Dark Predators only left a few of their people to challenge them, while the rest searched the valley thoroughly, seemingly looking for something. They even dug up the magic crystal bombs that Ye Chen had buried.
"Gurgle~~~" Just then, a harmless gray-white rabbit wobbled in, startling the many dark creatures.
"Roar~~~" The sudden appearance of the life form immediately caused many dark creatures to roar. This was excellent food, but it was a bit small, so they could only have a small snack.
Before the dark creatures could make a move, the little guy threw off the pack on his back and ran wildly out of the valley. His speed was completely different from when he came, and even a fourth or fifth-level dark predator might not be able to catch up with him.
"It's a magic crystal bomb! Run!" From a great distance, Lin Hu and the others saw the scene in the valley through the projections on their familiars and immediately shouted for them to retreat, but it was too late.
"Boom~~~" A violent roar rang out. The package thrown by Hou didn't even hit the ground before it was smashed to pieces by a dark demon with a single palm strike, followed by the violent explosion of the magic crystal bomb inside the package.
These were all Tier 3 magic crystal bombs. The dark demon was instantly blasted to ashes, and the surrounding dark creatures also suffered. A whole package of Tier 3 magic crystal bombs exploded at once, and even Tier 4 creatures couldn't withstand it.
Moreover, this package of magic crystal bombs was merely a trigger; its purpose was to detonate the magic crystal bombs buried deep underground in the valley.
"Boom~~~" With a huge roar, the magic crystal bombs in the valley were detonated one after another, and a huge mushroom cloud rose up. Ye Chen and the others who were hiding underground were almost buried by the falling rocks above.
"Damn! That was a miscalculation. That was too powerful; I almost buried myself!" Ye Chen spat out the sand in his mouth and looked at Oros beside him.
The world has been "nuclear-peaceful," now it's up to Oros to decide what happens next.
