At that moment, they naturally wanted to kill all of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clansmen as quickly as possible. Although it was impossible to kill all of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clansmen, it would be best to kill as many as possible. Although the grudges between the two clans were not very long, they were deeply engraved in their bones. Everyone knew that once the other party gained the upper hand, they would definitely not let them get away.
Naturally, they would not have any misgivings when fighting. However, the experts of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan were much more depressed. The reason for that was because the experts among them would always attract the attention of the peak experts of the human race. Due to the fact that they did not have the assistance of a Sovereign Emperor, their Quasi-Emperors were the ones to suffer. Before the many Sovereign Emperors of the human race, they were unable to hide at all. They would be crushed to death the moment they appeared. Regardless of whether they were strong or weak, from early stage Quasi-Emperors to peak Quasi-Emperors, they would all be crushed to death without any ability to resist.
This was how powerless Quasi-Emperors were before Sovereign Emperors.
As for the Quasi-Emperors of the human army, they would target the Divine Kings of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan and crush them. In this manner, layer by layer, the Divine Kings of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan were crushed. As a result, every single expert of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan was facing experts of the human army that were an entire realm above them. Thus, regardless of how much they struggled, it was all useless. When faced with experts of the human army that were an entire realm above them, or sometimes even two entire realms above them, they were unable to even put up the slightest bit of resistance.
The Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan possessed a foundation above that of the human race. However, their experts were scattered across seven provinces. Furthermore, they were ambushed by the human race. Thus, they were simply not prepared for a decisive battle. Thus, they were simply unable to gather together. Thus, regardless of when or where they were, they were unable to gather their superior military strength. They could only be crushed by the human army's superior military strength. In addition to the all-out suppression of their experts, not to mention blocking the human army, they were unable to even cause too much damage to the human army.
Faced with those tough fortresses, the human army would first bombard them with the cannons of the war fortresses. After plowing the ground, the human cavalry would unleash a rain of arrows. Finally, they would step forward to reap the harvest.
Those who were able to withstand the first two group attacks were as rare as phoenix feathers and qilin horns. After that, they were drowned in the human army.
The speed of the Human Race's advance was extremely fast because they knew that they were here to seize territories. They were in a hurry. If they didn't seize the time to occupy the territories of seven prefectures, it was very likely that they would become someone else's territory. Even if they lost a prefecture's territory, it would be incomparably painful. One must know that the total territory of the Human Race in the past was only half a prefecture's territory.
Therefore, they knew how important these territories were to the development of the Human Race.
Right now, Ye Xiwen was still at the front. However, those Emperors would slowly come to their senses. Perhaps they would form an allied army and attack. Not to mention, there would also be the intervention of the Eastern Empyrean Mansion. It would be best if they could take down the seven prefectures in one go and make it a fait accompli. Then, even if others wanted to say anything, it would be impossible.
Previously, when the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan wanted to annex the Four Prefectures of the Human Race, they had done the same thing. An accomplished fact was the best protection. No one would make things difficult for the victors of a clan that was destined to decline, for the sake of a clan that was destined to decline.
As long as the Eastern Empyrean Mansion didn't say anything, who would dare to challenge a Heavenly Venerate?
Right now, although Ye Xiwen wasn't a Heavenly Venerate, he had slaughtered a Heavenly Venerate. Such a powerful freak definitely couldn't be provoked.
To a certain extent, the current Ye Xiwen was no different from a Heavenly Venerate. It was naturally different for a Heavenly Venerate. However, it was the same for many Emperors. After all, no matter what, they weren't a match for him.
Right now, what the Human Race needed to do was to take over the seven prefectures before the Eastern Empyrean Mansion could react. When that happened, Ye Xiwen would naturally negotiate with the Eastern Empyrean Mansion.
Moreover, Ye Xiwen had previously agreed with the Battle Emperor that he would be considered to have joined the Eastern Empyrean Mansion's camp. In regards to this, the Eastern Empyrean Mansion would probably turn a blind eye and not do anything.
In any case, it wasn't worth it to compete with the Human Race for the sake of a Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan.
The saying 'when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter' wasn't just applicable to the Human Race. Conversely, if the Human Race was wiped out, the outcome would be the same.
This was normal. In the Fortune God Dynasty, clans were wiped out every day, and new clans were born every day. The replacement of clans was the natural order of things. However, the two clans involved in this war could be considered as super clans in the entire Eastern Region. That was why the repercussions were so great. Otherwise, even if a small clan was wiped out, no one would really care.
In order to seize time, after taking over the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan and the Human Race, apart from those who stayed behind, the Battle Emperor immediately split into six groups and killed their way to the other six prefectures. This way, they could save as much time as possible.
In order to occupy the seven prefectures as quickly as possible, Ye Xiwen didn't stay idle either. He knew that this was a crucial time, so he immediately sent out three thousand clones and killed his way into the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan's ancestral land. This was the essence of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan and also the place with the most experts. Usually, there would be Sovereign Emperors standing guard there to prevent anyone from destroying it. However, right now, the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan's Sovereign Emperors and Heavenly Venerables had all been wiped out by Ye Xiwen. The remaining people couldn't pose any threat to Ye Xiwen at all.
Just three thousand clones were enough to wipe out the entire ancestral land of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan. Those veteran Quasi-emperors who had been cultivating in seclusion for many years and were waiting to break through to the Sovereign Emperor Realm were also targets for slaughter. It could even be said that there weren't any ordinary Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clansmen in the ancestral land of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan. Only the top-notch experts could survive here.
Therefore, Ye Xiwen didn't feel any psychological burden when he slaughtered. He was decisive in killing, but he wasn't a bloodthirsty person either. He didn't care about slaughtering civilians.
Meanwhile, Ye Xiwen's main body was hovering in the sky above the seven prefectures. His divine sense enveloped everything. He was also warning the many Sovereign Emperors who wanted to take advantage of the situation. Even if they wanted to take advantage of the situation, they had to reconsider whether they had the ability to do so. Even Heavenly Venerables weren't a match for him, let alone ordinary Sovereign Emperors.
By the time the human race had completely conquered the seven prefectures and suppressed the rebellion army, a year had already passed. One year's time could be said to be long, but at the same time, it could not be said to be long. In the long history of the Fortune Divine Dynasty, one year was nothing more than a small wave that flashed across the river of history.
It only took slightly more than a month for the Human Race to occupy the seven prefectures. However, it was a hasty occupation. The various Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clansmen resisted one after another. This required a lot of energy.
This was because the many Sovereign Emperors, including Ye Xiwen, couldn't possibly put their energy into such a matter. Therefore, they could only send the various Quasi-emperors to lead their experts to kill them. This took a long time.
The Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan's foundation was too strong. Over the years, it was unknown how many experts they had secretly accumulated. It was unrealistic to annihilate them in one go.
Over the past year or so, they had quelled rebellions and killed people everywhere. It could only be said that the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan didn't dare to gather in the mountains or openly oppose the Human Race.
This could only be considered as a preliminary peace. As for long-term peace, it would require years and years of painstaking effort. It wasn't something that could be achieved in a short period of time. However, this was enough.
For the Human Race, after eliminating the majority of the upper echelons of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan, the rest was simple. The reason for that was because the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan's cultivation was too simple. They weren't like the Human Race, which had various cultivation techniques. Moreover, the majority of their cultivation techniques were related to devouring blood and flesh. Back when they occupied the seven prefectures, this cultivation technique was naturally successful. As long as they had sufficient blood and flesh, their cultivation would increase rapidly. It was as if there was no upper limit.
The reason why the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan was so powerful was related to this special characteristic of theirs. However, if they were suppressed and were unable to devour enough blood and flesh, it would be very difficult for their clan to develop further. It was precisely because they were bloodthirsty that they succeeded and failed. Thus, comparatively speaking, they were easier to deal with.
As long as their development was restricted, it would be impossible for the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan to make any more waves. Moreover, over the past year or so, many experts of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan had participated in the rebellion. Most of them were slaughtered. The remaining experts were ordinary people. They would slowly be assimilated by the Human Race. In the end, they would become one of the many clans under the rule of the Human Race.
The Human Race possessed this special characteristic of assimilation. Thus, there had never been a need for them to exterminate the other clans.
Furthermore, due to the fact that the Human Race's movements were truly too fast, the other powerful clans that wanted to take action only heard the news of the Human Race occupying the territory of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan right after they had organized their armies. Thus, they couldn't help but beat their chests and stamp their feet. Why didn't they take action earlier? If they had taken action earlier, it would have been better if they had taken action earlier and seized a province or two.
However, they had forgotten that they were also frightened by Ye Xiwen at the very beginning when they wanted to take action. The might he displayed when he massacred the Heavenly Venerables earlier was extremely frightening. Not everyone had the guts to provoke Ye Xiwen in such a situation.
By the time they reacted, it was already too late. In fact, there was even news that the Eastern Heavenly Venerate was extremely furious at such a large-scale change. However, in the end, the matter was left unsettled. The reason for that was because the Human Race occupying the territory of the Heaven Devouring Monstrous Clan was already a fact that could not be changed.
Faced with the incomparably powerful Ye Xiwen, it was impossible for them to personally take action against him. Unless the Eastern Heavenly Venerate personally instructed them to take action against Ye Xiwen. Otherwise, everything else would be for naught.
During this year, it wasn't only the Eastern Region that was in an upheaval. The entire Fortune God Dynasty was in an uproar because of a single piece of news.
A Sovereign had massacred a Heavenly Venerate!
