“There’s no need to rush,” Su replied slowly, then selected eighteen scout teams and said, “Go and investigate. If anyone can find out the truth inside, or learn what happened with the previous tribulation lightning, I will reward him with ten thousand magic crystals.”
Most of this realm is a mortal realm where demonic energy is not abundant, yet there are many demonic beasts and demonic cultivators in this realm.
Although this realm also produces its own magic crystals, it is simply not enough to go around compared to the vast number of magical beasts and cultivators.
Ten thousand magic crystals is an absolute fortune for these magical beasts and demonic cultivators!
The members of the eighteen scout teams immediately became as if they had been injected with adrenaline, shouting, "Thank you, Demon General!"
The other magical beasts and demonic cultivators who weren't mentioned cast envious, jealous, and hateful glances at them.
Deep within the Monster Forest, Shang Xiye skillfully and swiftly completed the troop deployment and formation.
The monsters then took their positions and entered a state of full preparation for battle.
Shang Xiye personally led twenty sixth-rank demons, and set up concealment formations on each of them. They quietly slipped out of the demon beast defense circle and stealthily made their way towards the direction where the demon army was stationed.
The other powerful demons all moved stealthily, fearing that their whereabouts would be exposed and discovered by the demon army.
Only Ghost Face carried Shang Xiye, strutting with the air of someone who had just enjoyed a hearty meal of wine and meat, and strolled arrogantly through the jungle as if he were visiting his own backyard.
But he didn't make a sound at all, as if the dense foliage respected him and made way for him.
The twenty great demons carefully studied Ghostface's arrogant gait, and all fell silent:
Alright, they really don't know how to step into the void!
Despite being sixth-rank demons, they were truly unworthy to be arrogant in front of this little dog with divine beast blood!
Suddenly, a faint demonic aura wafted through the air.
Shang Xiye gestured to the twenty great demons to stop advancing and disperse. Ghost Face, with great experience, quickly darted behind a towering tree that was as thick as four people could hug.
They all possess concealment formations, making them impossible for demons to detect unless they encounter each other face-to-face.
The twenty great demons dispersed in an orderly manner according to the route taught by Shang Xiye, and buried array foundation stones along the way.
“It’s your turn to take the lead,” Shang Xiye jumped off the back of the ghost mask and patted the mane on the back of its neck.
"Alright!" Ghost Face rubbed his right forepaw on the spot, smugly shook his shiny black fur, and said in a completely unserious manner, "Watch how Grandpa tricks those idiots into the formation without missing a single one!"
Having said that, the masked figure vanished from the spot in an instant.
When he reappeared, he had already jumped five or six meters away, and then disappeared in another leap.
Although 10,000 magic crystals is tempting, you still need to be alive to spend them.
Given that the previous six scout teams had been completely wiped out, without even a scream being heard back, this time, after these twenty scout teams appeared to have dispersed and entered the dense forest, they quickly regrouped, with all the beasts adopting a stance of not dispersing even if it meant certain death.
They thought, "There are so many high-level magical birds and beasts together."
In case of any danger, one or two of them will always manage to escape alive.
Who knows, maybe I'll be the one who survives in the end?!
This was precisely the kind of seemingly clever and invincible mentality that Shang Xiye had warned and warned those demonic beasts about beforehand, which was actually extremely foolish.
Unfortunately, their strategist was the equally selfish Su He, not Shang Xiye.
