The tribe returned with a bountiful harvest.
The harvest this time was the most since the start of the hunt. Just digging out the cores and clearing the canyon took an entire day.
During this period, everyone in the tribe, old and young, talked about Qin Tian.
The tribe's benefactor, god's emissary, the god sent by the heavens to save the Luo Shi tribe.
All sorts of discussions made Qin Tian blush. In terms of strength, he was not considered strong. He was not even Luo Yue's opponent.
However, to the tribe that lived at the bottom of the ocean, Qin Tian being able to release lightning made him a high and mighty god.
Two days later, it was the day for the demonic knight emissaries to collect the cores.
Early in the morning, Luo Yue ordered people to pile the cores in the middle of the tribe's plaza.
The cores that were piled up like a mountain gave off a dazzling glow. Qin Tian was speechless when he saw it. 15,000 cores, even for a sect like Tianji sect, it was a huge fortune. It would definitely cause many powers to fight over it.
The dark ocean territory was blessed by the heavens.
There were many sea beasts in the dark ocean. Moreover, it was filled with demonic aura, making it suitable for the growth of sea beasts. Even after years of hunting, the number of sea beasts did not decrease.
"Cores, Luo Hou needs cores."
"Ziyue also needs large amounts of cores."
"Don't tell me they're all the same? All of them cultivate by swallowing cores? "
Qin Tian muttered in his heart. He then patted Luo Feng beside him, "Luo Feng, do you know why Luo Hou wants you to hand over cores?"
Luo Feng had been following behind Qin Tian for the past two days.
These two days were the most impressive days for him in the tribe, because he was the closest person to Qin Tian.
Hearing Qin Tian's question, Luo Feng thought for a moment before shaking his head, "Don't know."
Qin Tian nodded.
After pondering for a moment, he asked, "Have you swallowed crystal cores before?"
"Swallowed cores?" Luo Feng stared at Qin Tian with his eyes wide open. Looking at the cores piled up on the plaza, he said, "Brother Qin, you're not joking right? Wouldn't you cut your throat if you swallowed those things? Who would dare to eat them?"
"As expected!"
Qin Tian was shocked and his face was filled with astonishment.
Who would have thought that the Netherworld Ocean Territory, which was isolated from the rest of the world, did not even know about devouring Crystal Cores to obtain power. This tribe was like a primitive tribe, not knowing anything.
He did not know how to concoct pills, he did not know how to treat people, he did not know how to use cultivation techniques, and he did not know how to swallow crystal cores. All he had left was brute strength.
Wanting to fight against Rahu, who relied on devouring Crystal Cores to become stronger, with brute force was simply a fool's dream.
Now, he knew why Rahu had slaughtered so many people in just a few short years. He had taken control of the entire Netherworld Sea territory and ordered them to hunt sea beasts to dig out their Essence Crystals and offer them to him.
I'm afraid that Ziyue didn't know about it until she went ashore. Otherwise, she wouldn't have been able to reach the peak of fourth-order universe realm.
If these more than ten thousand crystal cores were all distributed to the hundred warriors of the tribe …
With the dark ocean tribe's strong physique, the speed of absorption would definitely be very fast. Within a few days, there would probably be a terrifying increase in his physical body.
"He's here, he's here."
"The Devil Knight Emissary is here."
The crowd was in an uproar. Their eyes changed and they clenched their fists. Anger rose in their hearts and hatred filled their hearts.
On the road, 18 demonic knights were surrounded by a baleful aura. Their expressions were wooden as they stared coldly in front of them. They were filled with disdain towards the people on both sides of the road.
Their black armor emitted an evil aura.
The law of aura could sense that the aura within them was extremely evil. It was similar to the aura of the ninth heaven demon, carrying the evil and ferocious intent of the demon race. Qin Tian thought, "Could they be from the demon race?"
The mysterious flame flowed in reverse, the dark forest of the demon race was burnt to ashes. The remaining demons disappeared in a night, mysterious and unfathomable.
This became one of the biggest mysteries of Tianyuan continent.
The aura of the demonic knights was not that of a human. The aura flowing within them was filled with the evil of the demon race.
"Could it be that Rahu jumped into the mysterious flame three thousand years ago and discovered the secret of the demon race?"
"Or could it be that Rahu was controlled by the demon race?"
"Such a large amount of cores, even an absolute realm expert would not be able to absorb it in a short period of time. What exactly is Rahu doing?" Qin Tian frowned as he analyzed. He was worried that Rahu had an even stronger power behind him.
"What's there to worry about!"
"Laozi is only a passerby. What does the power behind Rahu have to do with me."
Qin Tian was annoyed and did not think too much about it.
The 18 demonic knights held onto their spears and were arrogant. The demonic beasts they were riding on let out roars without restraint.
Swaggering to the plaza, looking at the mountain of cores, the leading demonic knight's expression changed. His dark eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and he snorted, "Luo Yue, come out."
Luo Yue walked forward carefully and bowed respectfully, "Sir emissary, here are 15 thousand cores, please accept them."
"15 thousand?" The deep voice sneered and suddenly waved his spear. The spear tip was only a few centimeters away from Luo Yue's eyeballs. "When did I say that it was 15000 cores? I clearly said 20 thousand cores. You actually took out 15 thousand cores to fool me. I think you're courting death. "
"20 thousand?!"
The crowd was shocked. Previously, it was 15 thousand cores. In just three days, it became 20 thousand.
Did he think they were fools?
If not for the tribe's rules, where everything was decided by the patriarch, there would definitely be a riot.
Luo Yue's expression changed. A cold glint flashed through his eyes as anger grew.
From the start, Luo Yue was already worried. In the past, there were only five demonic knights. Today, there were 18. Moreover, their strength seemed to be much stronger than before.
Such a powerful formation, it was definitely not a coincidence.
"Are we really going to exterminate them all?" Luo Yue's heart was filled with anger. He raised his head and looked at the demonic knight, trying his best to restrain himself, "20,000?"
"That's right, 20 thousand."
"If you can't gather enough, there's no need for your tribe to exist."
"Wuhaha … …"
The Demon Knight Warrior let out a muffled laugh, following which the 17 warriors behind him also let out extremely arrogant laughter.
From his point of view, Luo Yue would not be able to gather 20 thousand cores no matter what. With one less core, he would immediately lose his life. Then, he could casually slaughter the entire tribe.
It was also time to clean up the remaining forces of the Luo Shi tribe.
"What if I gather 20 thousand?" Luo Yue said while gritting his teeth. His heart was like a boulder as he stared at the bottomless armor.
The demonic knight sneered and said with disdain, "If you can gather it, of course, we won't do anything to you. Your tribe will naturally be protected."
"Good!"
Luo Yue shouted. Turning his head, he looked at the furious Luo Kuang and said, "Bring the 5 thousand cores up."
"Eh?"
The demonic knight was stunned. Looking at the two warriors carrying the cores, his eyes darkened. An evil aura was released from his body.
Rage.
Originally, he thought that Luo Yue would not be able to gather enough and would fly into a rage. Little did he know that Luo Yue was already prepared.
The evil rage in his heart caused the Demon Knight Warrior's body to tremble. The Demon Beast he was riding on felt the rage and immediately let out a hysterical roar, spitting out raging flames.
"Emissary, these are the 20 thousand cores you requested."
Luo Yue respectfully said as the cores were carried into the plaza. Of course, he could feel the demonic knight's rage. However, Luo Yue was not afraid.
Looking at the two piles of cores, the demonic knight waved his hand and a spatial ring appeared. It floated in the air and with a thought, the 20 thousand cores were kept. He then said coldly, "Not bad, 20 thousand cores. Luo Yue, you have done very well. In view of your tribe's outstanding performance, this emissary has decided that next month, you will have to hand over 50 thousand cores."
"50 thousand cores?"
"Laozi will f * ck your ancestors."
Luo Kuang was instantly enraged. A powerful aura erupted from his body as he roared.
"Eh?"
The demonic knight's expression changed as he stared at Luo Kuang. Killing intent filled the air as he shouted, "Courting death!"
"Lord Emissary, we will definitely complete it." Luo Yue immediately said. He looked at Luo Kuang, hinting him not to be angry.
"Haha … … Laozi is happy today and will spare your life."
"Of course you can do it. However, if you can't … …" The demonic knight sneered, "You know the consequences … …"
"I will definitely do my best to complete Lord Emissary's task." Luo Yue bowed.
"Good, next month, we will come again, haha … …"
Retracting the spear, the demonic knight pressed his legs together and the beast rushed out. Following that, 17 demonic knights rushed out at the same time, causing yellow soil to fill the sky.
"Big brother, are you crazy?"
"That's 50 thousand cores, 50 thousand ah. How can you promise him?" Luo Kuang jumped onto the plaza and walked to Luo Yue's side.
At this moment, many warriors walked into the plaza and looked at Luo Yue without saying a word.
This time, if not for Qin Tian's help, not to mention 20 thousand cores, they might not even be able to gather 10 thousand. 50 thousand was simply to make things difficult for them, to find an excuse to kill them all.
"If you don't agree, this place will immediately be flattened. Don't you feel his killing intent?" Luo Yue's face darkened, "If you agree, we still have a month to prepare."
"Big brother, you've decided to stake it all?"
Luo Kuang's eyes were filled with shock and excitement.
Luo Yue glanced at the crowd and did not see Qin Tian's figure. He then looked at Luo Kuang, "Tonight, let's discuss our countermeasures."
Qin Tian disappeared.
Earlier, when the demonic knight kept the 20 thousand cores into his spatial ring, he had secretly brought Luo Feng out of the tribe.
As he left, a sinister and greedy smile hung on his face.
