Although the Demon army was defeated by the Central State cultivators led by the Xuanyuan Family, the Demonic Hall did not leave the matter at that. They were unable to destroy the Xuanyuan Family, so they started to take revenge on the Central State cultivators.
Countless Demon Dwellers that were hiding in the dark surfaced and launched attacks on the warriors of the Central Plains. The warriors of the Central Plains were not mentally prepared and were caught off guard by the Demon Dwellers. Many of them were killed or injured.
This time, the number of Demon Dwellers that appeared far exceeded three million. It was already close to ten million. This number was not much compared to the number of martial artists in the Central Plains, but the Demon Dwellers had appeared in large numbers. Tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of Demon Dwellers swept through one city after another like locusts.
In the cities that the demonic cultivator army had invaded, the martial artists were basically all killed by the demonic cultivators, and all their blood was sucked dry by the demonic cultivators.
As for the mortals, the Demons did not let them off. The men were all killed by the Demons, and the women were killed after they were violated by the Demons.
In just a few days, thousands of cities were attacked by the Demons. Corpses piled up like mountains in the cities, and blood flowed like rivers. The stench of death enveloped every city, and resentment filled the air. It was a tragic sight to behold.
The evil deeds of the Demons completely infuriated the cultivators in the Central State. Countless cultivators banded together to defend and counterattack the Demons. In the end, both sides suffered losses, and the chaotic battle continued without end.
The Central State, which originally did not have many Demons, actually had close to ten million Demons appear in less than ten days. Unfortunately, the Demons had hidden themselves very well.
The leader of the Demonic Hall was actually able to nurture so many powerful Demons in secret, deceiving the cultivators of the Central Plains. His forbearance and shrewdness were truly shocking. Everyone could not help but admire him.
The strategy of the Demonic Hall leader was very wise. Originally, in the battle against the Xuanyuan Family, if they did not have the support of the Xuanyuan Family, the Demonic Hall might not have lost to the Xuanyuan Family.
After losing to the Xuanyuan Family, the Demonic Hall did not continue to attack the Xuanyuan Family. They did not attack the other three aristocratic clans and the twelve great clans either. Instead, they attacked the weaker clans in the Central State.
The Demonic Dwellers were able to quickly grow and develop in the midst of war. The blood of warriors was the foundation of their rapid growth. The Demonic Dwellers cultivated the Blood Devil's Secret Art. They needed a large amount of blood, beast blood or human blood. Human blood was better than beast blood, and warrior blood was much better than mortal blood.
Presumably, in the past, the Demons had used a large amount of beast blood and a small amount of mortal blood. They had used an extremely small amount of cultivator blood to cultivate and strengthen themselves. They had endured for several hundred years just for today's eruption.
Good preparation will be unleashed!
The Demon Hall's strategy of strengthening itself was a kind of accumulation. In the past, when they were not strong enough, they did not dare to openly slaughter ordinary people and cultivators.
Right now, the overall strength of the Demonic Hall was incomparably powerful, enough to contend against a small portion of the experts of the Central Plains. Hence, it no longer held back and instantly erupted with a powerful strength, shocking the world with a single brilliant feat.
The strategy of the Devil Hall was correct. If it wasn't for them losing to the Xuanyuan Family, there wouldn't be many clans in the Central Province who could contend against the Devil Hall. After all, the Devil Hall didn't represent a clan but an entire race.
The Demons originally belonged to the human race. But after cultivating the Blood Demon Art, they no longer recognized themselves as humans. Instead, they classified themselves as demons. However, the true Demon Race had already disappeared for a very long time.
The true Demon Race was a combination of the Demon Race and the Human Race. Because the Demon Race inherited the advantages of both the Demon Race and the Human Race, they were incomparably ferocious and powerful. Their combat prowess was generally stronger than both the Demon Race and the Human Race.
The Demon Race had once wreaked havoc in the Central Plains, bringing disaster to the common people. Later on, the enraged Human Race and Demon Race joined forces to suppress them. In the end, the few remaining Demon Race completely disappeared from the sight of the Human Race and Demon Race. No one knew where they hid, becoming a mystery in the Central Plains.
The Xuanyuan Family naturally wouldn't sit and watch the Demons wreak havoc in the Central Plains. The Xuanyuan Family, with the title of the top aristocratic clan in the Central Plains, called upon all the clans in the Central Plains to send experts to the most chaotic region of the Demons to launch a counterattack against the Demons.
While calling upon the martial artists in the Central Plains, the Xuanyuan Family set an example by sending out 20,000 experts under the leadership of the 'Family God of War', Xuanyuan Boyu. They constantly used teleportation arrays to teleport to the chaotic region of the Demons and slaughtered the Demons in a frenzy.
However, there were simply too many Demons, and it seemed like there was no end to them. In addition, the Demons' combat prowess was generally stronger than the martial artists in the Central Plains. Therefore, the martial artists in the Central Plains were at a greater disadvantage. It was especially so for the cities that were ambushed by the Demon Race army, which suffered even more casualties.
Nurturing war through war.
The Demons could constantly nurture new Demons during war, and the existing Demons would constantly grow stronger during the war.
The martial artists in the Central Plains were relatively scattered. Apart from the God Bestow Warriors, the rest of the martial artists weren't strong. God Bestow Warriors were very rare, and it was already not bad if there was one God Bestow Warrior among 10,000 martial artists.
The Demons could rapidly increase their strength through the evil Blood Demon Art. Almost every Demon Race with decent innate talent could be equivalent to a God Bestow Warrior among the martial artists.
Therefore, even though the number of martial artists in the Central Plains was greater than the Demons, their combat prowess was inferior to the Demons. In addition, not all the martial artists in the Central Plains were participating in the war. Therefore, the martial artists in the Central Plains weren't able to eliminate the Demons. Instead, the Demons were getting stronger.
This wasn't a good trend. If this carried on, the Demons would be able to gain a firm foothold in the Central Plains. By then, it would be even more difficult for the martial artists in the Central Plains to eliminate the Demons.
Among the four major clans in the Central Plains, apart from the Xuanyuan Clan that sent out their experts, the other three clans were indifferent. It seemed like eliminating the Demons wasn't just their matter. However, the Zhangsun Clan was too busy with their own affairs, and it was understandable that they didn't send out their troops.
Of the 12 major clans in the Central Plains, the Li Clan and the Zhou Clan had suffered great losses and had to guard against the Zhangsun Clan's army. Therefore, it was understandable that the two clans didn't send out their troops.
However, the other four major clans actually didn't send out their troops either. This was simply playing it safe. If they allowed the Demon Palace to grow stronger, the Heaven Demon Palace would one day make a move on the 12 major clans.
With regards to the Duanmu Clan, Sikong Clan, and the 10 major clans watching coldly from the sidelines, the Xuanyuan Clan made a threat.
The content of the threat was: Duanmu Clan, Sikong Clan, and the 10 major clans, if you don't send out your troops to deal with the Demon Palace now, when the Demon Palace comes looking for your clans in the future, no one will help you. You will have to eat the bitter fruit that you have sown.
At the same time, the Xuanyuan Clan appealed to the Zhangsun Clan and the Li Zhou Clan to make peace and take a step back. They would bury the hatchet and then send out their troops to deal with the common enemy of the martial artists in the Central Plains — the Demon Palace.
No matter what happened in the future, the Demon Palace had gradually gained a firm foothold in the Central Plains. The Demons that were originally living and cultivating in the dark had once again appeared in front of everyone.
