Chapter 2555 First Attack
Although Tian Lin and Miao Qianqian are both at the Ancient Immortal Realm, the mortality rate for human cultivators at this level is not low in battles against extraterrestrial demons.
After all, survival in the outer realms is far more brutal, especially when facing extraterrestrial demons.
Don't be fooled by the fact that this battle seemed to be won easily; it was due to a variety of reasons.
One was Ye Changqing, another was that the food offset the side effects of the secret technique, and the last was the defeat and escape of that demon god.
The defeat of the Demon God by Elder Zhao will have a tremendous impact on the many extraterrestrial demons.
Otherwise, the battle would probably still be going on, as the extraterrestrial demons are capable of continuing the bloody fight.
Not to mention, in the eyes of many extraterrestrial demons, Tian Lin's identity as the young master of the Tian family is of no use at all; they don't care about him at all.
He reminded Tianlin to take it easy and be careful, lest he be killed in outer space one day.
Seeing Ye Changqing's serious expression, Tianlin knew it was for his own good and nodded in agreement.
"Okay, I won't go anymore."
In fact, given their relationship with Ye Changqing, even if they stayed in the kitchen to help out, even if it was just doing the most basic work, they would still have enough to eat. There was absolutely no need for them to risk their lives on the front lines.
The human cultivators had finished their meal and were resting.
Meanwhile, Elder Zhao, Elder Huang, the Heavenly Ancestor, Miao Cuihua, and the five Heavenly Officials were still sitting around the dining table, eating their meal at a leisurely pace.
The group ate a private meal, so there was no need to queue or fight over it, and they weren't in a hurry, so they ate elegantly.
During the meal, Old Zhao took a bite of meat and a sip of wine, and then spoke.
"This great victory is indeed a good start and a good omen. Next, we should directly storm into the mining area, block the entrance, and prevent these ingredients from escaping."
"As long as we can gain a foothold at the entrance of the mining area, these ingredients will be like meat on a chopping board, ready to be eaten whenever we want."
This battle shattered the fighting spirit of many extraterrestrial demons, causing their morale to plummet. It was definitely a good opportunity to press the attack.
Therefore, Zhao Lao decided to seize this opportunity and take advantage of the situation to attack the mining area, first establish a foothold in the mining area, and then push the battlefield into the mining area.
Upon hearing this, Huang Lao, Tian Jia Lao Zu, and others at the same table had no objections.
This idea is indeed good, and it is certainly the wisest choice at present.
At this time, attacking the mining area is indeed much easier than usual, and success is very easy.
Seeing that everyone nodded in support, Old Zhao immediately made the decision to let his men rest for an hour before launching the attack.
There's no need to go deep; just taking over the territory around the entrance to the mining area and completely sealing off the entrance is enough.
Next, all we need to do is arrange for guards to prevent the extraterrestrial demon ingredients from being sneaked in.
The plan was not complicated and was quickly finalized. With everyone nodding in agreement, preparations for the attack began.
Meanwhile, the numerous extraterrestrial demons who had fled back to the mining area in a panic had resentment in their eyes, but were mostly filled with a deathly aura.
Such a crushing defeat at the hands of humans is rare, even after many years of fighting against them.
Even the demon god was seriously injured and lost an arm.
Although they had recovered to normal, it was still a great humiliation. If the demon god had not been defeated, their morale would not have plummeted.
Many extraterrestrial demons were cautiously keeping a close watch on the Demon God in secret.
The demon was trembling with rage, its teeth grinding together.
Damn it, these despicable humans, they all deserve to die, they all deserve to die!
It longed to tear Old Zhao apart and devour him alive, but the demon knew that now was not the time.
What can you do if you're unwilling? You can only endure the humiliation.
We must wait for an opportunity. Going out now would be like walking into a trap, resulting in just another crushing defeat.
We need to give these extraterrestrial demons under our command some time to adjust and rebuild their morale.
Right now, the most crucial thing for them is to prevent the humans from directly attacking the mining area.
If Elder Zhao and his group could see that this was the best opportunity to invade the mining area, then this demon god could naturally see the same thing.
Riding the momentum of a major victory, striking now would indeed be twice as effective with half the effort, and given the shifting balance of power, the chances of success are quite high.
That would be true under normal circumstances, but now, it still has one more card in its hand.
He glanced coldly at a commander-level extraterrestrial demon beside him and said in a deep voice.
"Go and invite the Spirit Child of the Heavenly Spirit Clan."
The other party knows how to seal off this immortal crystal mine, so now we can only let him take action and temporarily seal off this immortal crystal mine.
By preventing humans from entering, we can proceed slowly and steadily, at least without worrying about our own safety.
Although this is completely contrary to the original plan, can we still take these things into consideration at the moment?
The initial plan was to let the humans in, and then seal off the immortal crystal mine, trapping them like turtles in a jar and beating them with a closed door.
But now, after World War I, the blockade of the Immortal Crystal Mine has become a way to prevent the human race from entering, simply for self-preservation.
It's humiliating to even think about, but there's nothing I can do. For the sake of the bigger picture, I have to endure it.
The demon god thought viciously to itself that it was only temporarily avoiding the brunt of the attack, and was definitely not afraid.
Upon hearing this, the commander-level extraterrestrial demon, though his expression was also grim, still respectfully nodded in agreement.
He then turned and headed deeper into the mine.
Before long, the Celestial Spirit Clan Spirit Child who had been waiting in the mining area was brought over.
He did not participate in the battle. After all, in the eyes of the demon god, this spirit was too weak, and there was no point in him going to the battlefield.
At this moment, upon arriving at the entrance, a strange light flashed in his eyes as he looked at the chilling demon god.
The outcome of this war doesn't seem to be very good.
If it were a resounding victory, he wouldn't have this expression; it's probably a defeat.
But the spirit dared not ask any questions and could only respectfully bow to the demon god.
"Greetings, Demon God."
Without further ado, the demon god coldly replied upon hearing Lingzi's words.
"You have now sealed off this Immortal Crystal Mine. It shall not be opened without my order."
Ok? ? ?
Blocking the Immortal Crystal Mine? Is it because they're worried about the humans chasing after them? Has the defeat been that severe?
This is no longer a simple defeat; it's probably a crushing one. Otherwise, the demon god wouldn't have allowed him to directly seal off the immortal crystal mine.
They were willing to do this to stop the demons' attack.
He remained outwardly calm, but inwardly he was already calculating that he probably couldn't stay in this place any longer.
Can these extraterrestrial demons really stop the humans outside?
The situation seems dire. If that's the case, then staying here won't do him any good, and he might even get himself into trouble.
They were already thinking of running away, but they obviously didn't dare let the demon god in front of them see it.
