1227: Surround

On the hill.

After Wang Chen finished speaking, Mo Hanguang, Ancient Long Wind, and the others beside him couldn't help but twitch their mouths.

Good heavens!

They almost forgot, this Senior was an old monster who liked to play the pig to eat the tiger. He was clearly super strong and could withstand 12th Stage treasures, but on the surface, he disguised himself as an 11th Stage Early Stage...

With the current lineup, there was no need to worry about the War Mother Nest escaping at first when they went to trouble it!

"Senior is right!"

Mo Hanguang was the first to react, quickly offering a compliment, and the others followed suit.

After finalizing the plan, Wang Chen had Mo Hanguang, Ancient Long Wind, and the other 11th Stage Middle Stage cultivators lead the way, while he walked behind them, flying towards the distant mountain range.

As they approached the mountain range, the number of demonic creatures, which they hadn't seen a single one of on the way, began to increase sharply. During this time, many unintelligent demonic creatures smelled the aura of living people and launched attacks on the group.

But these demonic creatures were all below the 10th Stage, and encountering a group whose average strength was above the 11th Stage was naturally like an egg hitting a rock; they were easily slaughtered.

Soon, the group arrived at the base of the mountain range, completely stepping into the territory of the War Mother Nest.

"Roar, roar, roar!!!"

The roars of demonic creatures now resounded continuously, and more than a dozen gazes filled with undisguised malice locked onto the group.

...

In a cave at the top of the mountain range.

Pairs of tyrannical, bloodthirsty eyes suddenly opened, and the crimson light bursting from them cast a faint scarlet glow over the dim interior of the cave, simultaneously revealing six ferocious figures within.

"A Human Race World Lord-level hunting squad? How did they find this place?!"

Among the six figures, a Demon God with a spiral horn on his head, brown patterns drawn on his face, and white bone armor covering his body frowned slightly, his eyes showing some surprise:

"This place was already swept through by the Human Race five years ago, and after we arrived, we set up many hidden methods near the mountain range and restrained our subordinates from going out. There's no way we should have attracted the attention of a Human Race World Lord-level hunting squad!"

"Maybe they accidentally explored this place."

A Demon God with ram horns beside him chuckled indifferently, saying in a relaxed tone:

"It's not like there haven't been Human Race cultivators who accidentally stumbled into this area these past few days; it's just that these few are a bit stronger."

"White Bone Boss, you don't need to worry. If the Human Race really discovered the existence of the Mother Nest, how could they only send such a lineup? Not to mention a 12th Stage leading, at least all of them should be 11th Stage Peak."

"If they only send a few 11th Stage Middle Stage, isn't that just pure extra food for us! Hahahaha!"

At the end of his words, the Ram Horn Demon God laughed twice, licking his lips with his crimson tongue.

Speaking of extra food, he was indeed a little hungry now.

"Ram Horn is right, Boss, you're too suspicious. These guys should be like before, just stumbled in by mistake."

"Perfect, the War Mother Nest is currently in the stage of accumulating energy after advancing. These few Human Race cultivators have come at just the right time. We'll deal with them, keep one for ourselves to enjoy, and sacrifice all the others to the War Mother Nest."

"Once the War Mother Nest finishes accumulating energy, we will immediately be able to step into the realm of Upper Demon Gods."

After the Ram Horn Demon's words, the eyes of the other four Demon Gods beside him lit up with excitement, and one of them said joyfully.

"No rush. First, send out subordinates to test their strength. The Human Race is most cunning and treacherous. There might be a Human Race old monster with hidden cultivation among them."

The White Bone Demon God thought for a moment upon hearing this and slowly said.

"Boss! Ten 11th Stage cultivators, eight of whom are 11th Stage Middle Stage. Just sending out subordinates probably won't be enough to take these guys down. Even if all of our Lower Demon Gods go together, we'd have to pay a considerable price to push them to a desperate situation. I think it's most suitable for us to act together!"

"Although the lives of subordinates are not worth much, losing too many will also affect the task assigned by the King."

The Ram Horn Demon God spoke with some hesitation.

They had been lurking in this area with the War Mother Nest for nearly five years. During this period, the War Mother Nest had been continuously accumulating energy and advancing. Except for the low-level demonic creatures created for harvesting energy, they basically did not expand the scale of demonic creatures in this area.

Therefore, the number of demonic creatures in the entire area has always remained within a relatively stable range.

If they only used a large number of low-level demonic creatures and even Lower Demon Gods to test this Human Race team, the losses would undoubtedly be very large, affecting the War Mother Nest's subsequent blessings to them and the speed of its advancement to the 12th Stage.

"Ram Horn, I naturally know what you are worried about. However, I am not trying to use the lives of low-level demonic creature subordinates and Lower Demon Gods to kill these Human Race cultivators. It's just a test. We will observe from the side, and once we confirm that there are no hidden strong individuals in this team, we will immediately take action to resolve them."

"When they are in a bitter battle, they certainly won't expect us to launch a sneak attack."

The White Bone Demon God said indifferently, his face filled with the calm assurance of victory.

"You're still the smartest, White Bone Boss."

Upon hearing this, the Ram Horn Demon God and the other four Demon Gods nodded, cleverly flattering him.

"Let's begin, they've already reached halfway up the mountain."

The White Bone Demon God's gaze looked outside the cave. As soon as he finished speaking, a low, almost imperceptible roar suddenly emerged from his mouth. An invisible sound wave instantly spread out from the cave, covering most of the mountain range.

"Roar, roar, roar!!!"

The next second, earth-shattering roars echoed through the mountain range. From various caves hidden beneath sand, rocks, and grass, tyrannical and bloodthirsty demonic creatures rushed out, almost covering the entire mountain range in an instant.

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!!!

At the same time, more than thirty figures emanating evil Devilish Qi flew up from the demonic creature army, directly surrounding Wang Chen and his group who were ascending the mountain.

The evil Devilish Qi intertwined and enveloped the sky, like a prison, sealing off the world and completely cutting off their only retreat.

"Humans? So weak, yet you dare to come here. What, did you know that Grandpa Demon didn't eat enough today, so you specially came to deliver food?"

"Hahahaha, you're really thoughtful, but there are only ten of you. That's not even enough for one bite each."

"It's been a long time since I tasted the fresh blood and flesh of humans. Today is a good day to whet our appetites with you!"

The more than thirty Lower Demon Gods guarded all sides, looking at Wang Chen and his group surrounded in the middle, and all of them let out mocking laughter.

Seeing this scene, Ancient Long Wind, Mo Hanguang, and the others' expressions sank. Their gazes involuntarily turned towards Wang Chen, and they secretly transmitted their voices:

"Senior, thirty-six Lower Demon Gods equivalent to 11th Stage Early Stage. This power is probably something we can't handle alone!"

"Moreover, Bai Yunhao said that the number of Middle Demon Gods here exceeds five. Since they haven't appeared yet, they are probably hiding in the dark, peeking and waiting for an opportunity to launch a sneak attack."

"What do you think we should do next?"
