Mo Fan and his group of demons were not far from Demon Spirit Valley. In the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, they ascended a mountain, immediately taking in the entire Demon Spirit Valley.
“It’s gone…”
Looking at the empty Demon Spirit Valley before him, Mo Fan murmured to himself, his idea of scavenging instantly vanishing.
In Demon Spirit Valley, the enormous treasure tree that once covered the sky had disappeared, leaving a massive pit in the centre of the valley.
“Huh, that six-coloured vermilion fruit tree is gone!”
He Feifei and the other demons were also full of surprise, having noticed the same issue.
“Yes, it must have been moved by a great power during the previous battle.” Mo Fan nodded.
“That’s such a pity. If it hadn’t been taken away, how nice it would have been. We could have casually eaten some fruits and probably achieved a breakthrough!” He Feifei said regretfully.
The other demon soldiers nodded in agreement, clearly sharing He Feifei’s view.
“There’s nothing to regret. The human cultivators came this time likely for that treasure tree. As for dealing with us demons, it was probably just incidental.
Only by surviving can you gain opportunities. If you die, you get nothing.”
Mo Fan shook his head, then waved his hand. Instantly, demonic aura surged, enveloping the group of demons as they rode the clouds and flew directly toward the valley.
Upon arriving at Demon Spirit Valley, Mo Fan did not let the demons descend but instead circled in the air, overlooking the ground, ensuring his field of vision was optimal to better search for Dali and other demons.
Although Demon Spirit Valley was not small, Mo Fan quickly covered it under his flight.
Apart from numerous human and animal corpses on the ground, Mo Fan found no living creatures, causing him to frown slightly.
“Three-Inch, if you’re not dead, come out and work for this lord!”
Mo Fan’s cold snort made Three-Inch, hiding in his collar, hurriedly crawl out, giving an awkward smile. “Lord, I’m here! I’ll get to work for you right away!”
As Three-Inch spoke, his four wings flapped, and he immediately took flight. Then, numerous dense pupils appeared in the large eyeballs on his head, making the other demons’ scalps tingle.
“Lord, the footprints below are too mixed, and the auras are too chaotic. It’s hard to distinguish who left which.
Is there a specific range for me to identify?”
Three-Inch circled in the air before returning to Mo Fan’s shoulder.
“Er Ha, you said you saw Red Eye and Zha Zha leave toward the west. Do you know the exact location?” Mo Fan looked at the tiger demon beside him.
“Red Eye?”
“Zha Zha?”
Er Ha looked utterly confused.
“Idiot, it’s that rabbit demon and sparrow demon!” Mo Fan said irritably.
“Oh, oh, I know, Lord. Fly that way.”
Er Ha nodded quickly, pointing in a direction.
At this moment, he had transformed into his spiritual form, full of muscular flesh, appearing extremely robust, even taller and larger than Mo Fan.
Mo Fan flew in the direction Er Ha indicated, soon arriving at a relatively easy-to-climb cliff.
Three-Inch flew out again and soon exclaimed excitedly. “Lord, I found it. There are fewer footprints here, and there’s clearly a lingering rabbit scent in the air!”
“You Three-Inch, can’t you speak properly?!”
White Snow was displeased, glaring fiercely at Three-Inch.
Next, Mo Fan and his group of demons, led by Three-Inch, left Demon Spirit Valley and headed west. Soon, they spotted a group of demons fiercely fighting in the air.
“Grandkids, a bunch of lowly small demons dare to surround and kill your Grandpa Zha? Courting death!!”
“Don’t waste words with this sparrow. He’s only just broken through to Demon Soldier Realm, acting like some big shot!
One spit from each of us demons could drown him!”
“Kill!!”
The shouts of killing rang out, and Mo Fan recognised Zha Zha’s familiar voice among the demon group.
Looking over, he indeed saw Zha Zha and Red Eye in the demon group, currently surrounded and attacked by a group of small demons.
But how could those small demons be a match for these two?
Having broken through to Demon Soldier Realm, the strength of the two demons had greatly improved.
Red Eye’s claws extended like ten swift knives, weaving through the demon group. Any demon touched by his claws was either dead or injured.
As for Zha Zha, he was even more formidable. After awakening his divine ability, his strength had surpassed Red Eye’s. His palm-sized small body moved through the demon group like a ghost, with no demon able to catch his figure.
As Zha Zha flew swiftly, the silver needle around his body erupted with terrifying killing power, often piercing through demons’ foreheads in a single encounter, killing demons even faster than Red Eye.
“Strange, where did these two demons come from? They’re only at the early Demon Soldier Realm, yet so powerful?”
At the periphery of the demon group, several demons frowned slightly. Their auras were far stronger than those of the lowly small demons.
These were clearly a group of demon soldiers!
Unlike the demon soldiers Mo Fan had seen before, although these had also transformed into spiritual forms, they all uniformly had beast heads!
Purely from appearance, they looked more like demons than those in the Three Mountains.
There were seven demon soldiers in total, the largest being an elephant-headed demon with a long nose and big ears, sporting a pair of long white tusks. His body was greyish-white, far larger than any demon Mo Fan had seen, exceeding ten feet in height!
On the elephant demon’s shoulder lay a palm-sized small rat.
The other six demon soldiers consisted of two wolf-headed demons, one leopard-headed demon, one snake-headed demon, and two spider demons with large black fangs.
Mo Fan and his demons were flying relatively high, so they went unnoticed by those demons for the time being.
Seeing this, Mo Fan asked. “Three-Inch, are these demons from your Black Nether Mountain?”
“Lord, Black Nether Mountain is mostly bat demons. There isn’t a single spider demon; even if there were, they would have been eaten long ago. There are two spider demons below!
So they definitely aren’t from Black Nether Mountain!”
Three-Inch climbed onto Mo Fan’s shoulder, looked down, and shook his head.
“Pig One, do you recognise these demons?”
Mo Fan turned his gaze to the pig demon brothers.
“Replying to the General, Black Cloud Mountain has never had an elephant demon. As far as I know, there are no elephants in the entire Three Mountains region, so I think these demons are likely not from our Three Mountains region.” Pig One also shook his head.
“Indeed, I’ve never heard of elephants existing in the Demon Spirit Mountain Range, though there are some deep in the Hundred Thousand Great Mountains.”
He Feifei spoke up, confirming Pig One’s words.
“Oh, so these are wild demons?”
Mo Fan’s eyes flashed, a hint of anticipation appearing in them.
Compared to demons in demon lairs, wild demons lived in harsher environments, naturally having a higher chance of comprehending divine abilities.
From Zha Zha and Mr. Pig before, Mo Fan had seen the conditions for demons to comprehend divine abilities.
Apart from a few demons with bloodline inheritance who luckily comprehended divine abilities, it was like him, swallowing certain special spirit fruits to stimulate demonic body potential and thus comprehend divine abilities.
Beyond that, there was another condition that made it easier to comprehend divine abilities: under immense pressure and the stimulation of danger!
To meet this condition, one could not be content with ease and had to constantly walk the edge of life and death.
Wild small demons perfectly met this criterion!
Seeing how formidable the rabbit demon and sparrow demon were, the seven demon soldiers below grew restless. The two spider demons spoke up. “Brothers, don’t panic. Let our children form the array, and we’ll surely capture these two reckless demon soldiers!”
After the two spider demons spoke, they lightly shouted to the demon group ahead. “Children, form the spider web array and capture them in one fell swoop!”
With the two spider demons’ orders, the small demons surrounding and attacking Red Eye and Zha Zha simultaneously patted their bellies.
The next moment, their bellies swelled, and thick white spider threads shot toward Red Eye and Zha Zha!
