The rank four Hunting Rat that Lin Xuan had chosen seemed to have been poisoned. It advanced with the Hunting Rat army, stopping every once in a while to absorb the power of the earth to suppress the poison in its body.
Even though it had been poisoned, this rank four Hunting Rat still didn't want to be separated from its pack, stubbornly participating in the hunt. Its sense of community was very strong, and this made it difficult for Lin Xuan to make a move.
Although the rank four Hunting Rat King's monster core was far less helpful than the rank five Hunting Rat King's monster core and the Golem Heart, Lin Xuan had no other choice.
After all, with his strength, wanting to kill a rank five Hunting Rat King among a million Hunting Rats was an impossible task. If he wasn't careful, he could easily fall into a dangerous situation.
Therefore, he had no choice but to set his sights on the rank four Hunting Rats.
Lin Xuan transformed into a rank three Hunting Rat and mixed in with the Hunting Rat army, looking no different from the other Hunting Rats. After all, this was the Hunting Rat world, and he didn't dare to be careless.
He tailed the rank four Hunting Rat from a distance, patiently waiting for the right moment.
The Hunting Rat Army covered a radius of a hundred miles, gathering and dispersing from time to time. Wherever they passed, they exterminated all life. In less than half a day, they had eaten another three demon tribes. They were like a group of hungry beasts that could never eat their fill, devouring everything that they could find.
Half a day later, the Hunting Rat army encountered another group of monsters that wasn't small. It was a group of mountain turtles.
These mountain turtles were huge and their movements slow. They dragged along their families, numbering in the thousands, and fled in panic.
The small ones were the size of houses, while the large ones were the size of small mountains. The rumbling of their footsteps caused the earth to tremble for a thousand miles.
Unfortunately, their speed was too slow compared to the Hunting Rat army, and they were quickly surrounded by the Hunting Rat army.
Under the Hunting Rat army's collective gravity technique, the mountain turtles ran even slower. In the end, they all retreated into their shells, preparing to rely on their strong defense to fight a protracted battle with the Hunting Rat army.
In this way, the Hunting Rat army was slowed down, and they had no choice but to go all out to deal with these difficult turtle shells.
Taking advantage of this time, the poisoned rank four Hunting Rat burrowed deep into the ground and began to enter a deep state of cultivation. It looked like it wanted to expel the poison as soon as possible.
However, it didn't notice that a Rank 3 Hunting Rat was tailing it, and had also arrived at the depths of the earth.
In this Devil Domain, one could release their mental power. However, on the ground, there were still some restrictions. Lin Xuan's mental power could only be released within a range of a thousand meters.
He followed closely behind the Type 4 Hunting Rat, concealing his aura and secretly observing its condition.
Perhaps it was because its own army was not far from the ground, but this Type 4 Hunting Rat's vigilance was not high. After it found a suitable position, it immediately concentrated on gathering the power of the earth and channeling it into its body, resisting the poison in its body.
It was soon enveloped by a layer of earthy yellow light, like a blazing sun deep in the earth.
Lin Xuan smiled coldly, knowing that the time was right. This Hunting Rat had entered a deep state of cultivation, so he did not hesitate to attack.
He gripped the Seven Kills Shao Feng Sword tightly as he locked onto Liao Shu's body. He swiftly flew over, and in the blink of an eye, he passed through the blazing sun and came out from the other side.
"Creak, creak —"
A mournful shriek rang out.
The Type 4 Hunting Rat awoke from its cultivation with a start, but to its shock, it found that its body had been cut in two, and even its head had been cut in half.
The only thing to be thankful for was that its soul had escaped death. Terrified, its soul hurriedly fled towards the ground.
But in the next moment, another flash of sword light pierced through the earth, passing through its soul and completely annihilating it.
Lin Xuan smiled faintly as he approached Liao Shu's corpse and dug out its demon core. He then threw the corpse into the space of the stone ring, and quickly left, returning to the Hunting Rat army.
At this moment, the main force of the Hunting Rat army was still gnawing at the Mountain Tortoise tribe, not realizing that they had already lost a Type 4 Hunting Rat.
Lin Xuan did not enter the center of the battlefield, nor did he participate in the hunt for the Mountain Tortoise tribe. He only wandered around the periphery of the battlefield, continuing to search for his next target.
This Mountain Tortoise Tribe was a branch of the ancient divine beast, the Black Tortoise. Its strength was not weak, but in front of the Hunting Rats' army, it was still much weaker. In a short two hours, there were already several hundred weaker tortoises that had been eaten by the Hunting Rats.
The remaining high-grade Mountain Turtles couldn't help but be enraged, and they gradually launched a fierce counterattack. Roars that sounded like the roars of dragons and elephants resounded through the sky, and powerful divine abilities were released one after another, causing the Hunting Rat Clan to suffer heavy losses.
The Mountain Tortoise tribe's divine ability was to shoot a dark green rain of arrows that contained a highly toxic poison. Any Hunting Rat under Type 3 would die upon contact, and even Type 4 and Type 5 Hunting Rat Kings would be greatly weakened after being hit.
The Mountain Tortoise Tribe's desperate counterattack quickly dealt a huge blow to the Hunting Rat Army. The Hunting Rats at the frontlines of the battlefield were killed in droves, and over 30 Type 4 Hunting Rat Kings were killed. The number of injured was uncountable, and there was even a Type 5 Hunting Rat King that was poisoned and had no choice but to retreat.
However, such losses were like a drop in the ocean to the Hunting Rat army that had millions of soldiers. It was not enough to cause the Hunting Rat army to retreat.
Under the command of a Hunting Rat Emperor, more Hunting Rats fearlessly rushed forward, tearing the mountain-like Mountain Tortoises into pieces and swallowing them into their stomachs.
In the midst of such an intense battle, an unassuming Level 3 Hunting Rat was quietly shuttling through the battlefield. It quickly passed by the corpses of Level 4 Flying Rats, digging out their demon cores before quickly disappearing without a trace.
Without a doubt, this Hunting Rat was Lin Xuan in disguise.
At this moment, Lin Xuan's heart was bursting with joy. Relying on himself to hunt the Hunting Rats one by one, who knew how long it would take for him to collect enough Demon Cores.
Now that the Hunting Rat army had suffered heavy losses, he had collected more than 30 Type 4 Demon Cores in a very short time. It was simply too satisfying.
Moreover, there were still some Hunting Rats that had not died from the poison and were currently healing their wounds. If he took the opportunity to harvest a wave of Hunting Rats, he would definitely gain a lot.
After he finished collecting the Demon Cores, he began to look for targets and wait for an opportunity to strike.
However, his actions quickly attracted the attention of the higher-ups of the Hunting Rat army.
The Hunting Rat's Demon Cores were not only useful to Lin Xuan, but to the other Hunting Rats, they were the most precious things in the world. This was because they could directly increase the cultivation of other Hunting Rats.
However, the Hunting Rat army had a strict hierarchy and was orderly. Although their numbers were large, they were not disorderly.
Although they all desired the Demon Cores of other clans, these Demon Cores had to be collected by the Hunting Rat Emperor's personal guards and rewarded according to their contributions.
If anyone dared to touch them, their Demon Cores would also become the reward of others.
At this moment, Lin Xuan was the first to steal the Demon Cores of the dead Hunting Rats. The Hunting Rat Emperor's personal guards who had come to collect the Demon Cores were all empty-handed and returned to report to the Hunting Rat Emperor. This immediately provoked the Hunting Rat Emperor's monstrous fury.
"Squeak squeak! Great Emperor! The Sacred Cores of those dead warriors have been stolen by some lawless people! "
"Great Emperor! We must punish those bastards severely! They are provoking our Emperor's majesty! They are looking down on the order of our Hunting Rat Clan! "
"They have betrayed the Demon God! They have betrayed our Emperor! We must eat their flesh and use their bones as sacrifices to the Demon God! "
