"Screech—"

A piercing shriek echoed through the Demon Space.

An SSS-level Red-feathered Golden Eagle fell from the sky under the siege of Lin You and the Plant Army.

[Killed a Tier Ten Lord Demon, gained 1 billion Magic Energy.]

"Alright, let’s recover a bit first."

Hearing the prompt in his mind, Lin You shouted to the Royals.

Then he went to the Red-feathered Golden Eagle’s corpse and collected the ten Rule Fragments that had dropped into his space.

This was the thirtieth SSS-level Lord Demon he had killed along the way, not to mention countless others of different levels; the Rule Fragments had accumulated to over 1,000 pieces.

It was much faster than he had anticipated.

At this rate, it wouldn’t be a problem to gather enough Rule Fragments to upgrade to Tier Eleven in a short time.

After a brief rest and recovery at the same spot, he led the Plant Army to continue advancing deeper into the space.

Meanwhile.

In various directions within the Demon Space.

Compared to Lin You’s ease, the situation for the other Tier Ten Lords wasn’t as favorable.

They were in a disorganized chaos, grappling with the continuously approaching High-level Lord Demons, their figures locked in battle visible all around.

"Quick! Another SS-level Centaur is charging over there, stop it fast!"

"This side is about to give out, we need more support!"

"Unleash all! Don’t hold back the group bursts any longer, activate now!"

"Hold on! Defeat these two SS-levels and we win!"

Shouts and roars rang out constantly at the entrances to the Demon Plane.

Even the Lords possessing seven or eight Divine Fragments could only barely withstand the assault of Lord Demon groups.

Those with nine Divine Fragments, like the old King, fared slightly better but were also bogged down by numerous S-level and above Lord Demons, progressing slowly.

They eventually had to form teams to fight together, barely stabilizing their positions.

Nevertheless, they had no intention to leave the space.

The magical resources here were overwhelmingly vast, unlike anything they had ever seen in their lives.

Lord Demons were everywhere; slaying just one would yield several days’ worth of income for their Duchy.

Such a rare and coveted opportunity, only a fool would give it up.

This led to more Kings spontaneously forming teams to vie for the Demon resources within the space, with conflicts and confrontations among various realms becoming more frequent.

...

"Master, there’s a basin ahead with a large gathering of Lord Demons."

Deep within the space.

Lin You, who was leading the Plant Army exploring around, was interrupted by the voice of Void Nether.

"A large number of Lord Demons?" Lin You’s eyes lit up, and he immediately had a Jade Dragon King fly forward, discovering a vast basin three kilometers away, where a massive number of Undead Skeletons and Resentful Spirit Demons were roaming.

The number was enormous, nearly fifty thousand in total.

Among them, nearly five hundred figures were quite large.

They were Tier Ten Lord Demons, Skeleton Generals!

"Let’s go, check it out."

Lin You’s spirits lifted, and he quickly led his team to approach at speed.

Five hundred Lord Demons equaled several thousand Rule Fragments; consuming them all would certainly be a fortune.

Although dealing with so many Lord Demons was challenging, Lin You didn’t want to miss such a rare opportunity, hoping those Lord Demons didn’t have high Chaos Levels.

Before long, the Plant Army reached the edge of the basin, hiding behind a row of protrusions, observing the situation inside the basin.

Until now, Lin You only managed to probe the detailed information about those Skeleton Generals.

[Name: Skeleton General (Lord)]

[Race: Undead]

[Level: Tier Ten (S-level)]

[Power: 100,000 (+80,000)]

[Constitution: 100,000 (+80,000)]

[Agility: 95,000 (+76,000)]

[Spirit: 95,000 (+76,000)]

[Skills: Heavy Slash, Undead Summoning, War Roar, Undead Commander]

[Chaos: All attributes increased by 80%]

[Introduction: Commanders of the Undead monsters, possessing the ability to command ordinary Undead and greatly boost the strength of the surrounding Undead.]

S-level?

Lin You frowned slightly.

This was higher than he had imagined.

Five hundred eighteen thousand-attribute Lord Demons were no trivial matter.

Then.

He looked elsewhere.

Suddenly attracted by something in the center of the basin.

In the midst of the densest concentration of Skeleton Demons stood a pitch-black long sword; within a hundred meters around it, the death qi emanating from the sword enveloped everything, turning even the ground black.

Vaguely.

A deathly aura could be seen swirling above the basin, slowly coalescing around the long sword, causing the dark clouds in the sky to rotate.

This sword.

Isn’t simple!

Lin You squinted, pondering how to acquire that sword.

The number of Lord Demons within was too overwhelming; even with ten powerful Royals, he wasn’t confident in handling them all at once, risking heavy losses.

But drawing them out slowly to kill one by one would be too time-consuming.

At that time, I’m afraid there will be quite a few kings from other realms rushing over to seize resources.

Although he’s not afraid, once people gather in numbers, it always leads to some trouble.

After all, those daring enough to enter here won’t be weak.

Looks like I’ll have to use that method.

"Cyan Rattan."

Lin You turned back to look at Cyan Rattan, who had already gathered her vines.

"If you devour those corpses we just collected, are you confident you can handle over half of the demons?"

On this journey, he collected over ten thousand Tier Ten demon corpses for emergencies.

He didn’t expect to use them so soon.

"Master, you underestimate me too much. If I devour them all, I can tear apart all these skeletons," Cyan Rattan said confidently.

As the strongest war machine under Lin You’s command, she absolutely had the right to say such words.

Ten thousand corpses would be enough for her attributes to break through two hundred thousand.

"And us, we’ll be assisting from the side, dealing with these demons won’t be a problem," the Mushroom Demon King added immediately.

The other members of the royal family looked eager and ready for action.

Lin You thought for a moment and said, "Alright, Cyan Rattan will lead the attack, and you all support her. If things go awry, retreat immediately. Don’t get entangled in battle."

After speaking, he took a deep breath and his gaze locked onto the pitch-black long sword at the center of the basin.

"Go!"

With an order, he threw all ten thousand corpses into the air and simultaneously activated the power of rules, unleashing a Barbaric Roar.

Then, amidst the whistling sound, Cyan Rattan’s vines shot up into the sky, pierced through corpse after corpse, and drained them of all flesh and blood.

In the blink of an eye.

A strange red glow began to emanate from her body, and her already immensely powerful aura climbed continuously.

The undead army in the basin noticed the commotion and flames of the netherworld ignited one after another, their hollow eyes simultaneously glancing over.

Yet, before they could launch an attack, Cyan Rattan’s giant tentacle-like vines rapidly spread into the basin, madly writhing.

"Boom!"

With a loud crash, countless vines erupted from the ground, shattering a large number of skeleton demons into fragments.

The plant army followed closely, charging into the basin under the leadership of other royal family members.

Wherever they looked, there were all sorts of bizarre, twisted plants that seemed to cover almost the entire basin.

"Roar!!"

Finally, the Skeleton Generals in the basin reacted.

With a furious roar, all the undead monsters transformed into a white torrent, clashing fiercely with Lin You’s plant army.

The Lord-level Skeleton Generals, wielding heavy swords, slashed madly at the Ancient Tree species leading the charge.

"Defense!"

With a shout from Cyan Gang, all the Ancient Tree Venerables simultaneously activated the War Shield Wall, forming defensive shields in front of them.

The Natural Venerables retreated to the rear, summoning hordes of Tree Demons to share the damage.

Then came a series of loud bangs, halting the forward momentum of the Ancient Tree Legion, successfully blocking the offensive of the Skeleton Generals.

The ranged units at the back saw this and immediately began their assault, Explosive Mushrooms and vines flying through the air while Pea Bullets and Dandelion Seeds filled the battlefield, bombarding the charging skeleton demons mercilessly.

Above, the Green Dragon Legion and Lantern Grass swept by, launching aerial attacks.

Just as the Skeleton Generals wielding giant swords were about to counterattack, countless giant vines appeared at their feet, quickly entangling them.

"Ahahahahaha... Die! All of you, just die!!"

In the state of Bloody Frenzy, Cyan Rattan had completely descended into madness, her mouth letting out a piercing laugh while she wildly swung her vines, smashing each Skeleton General into the ground over and over, creating loud, crashing sounds.

[Killed Tier Ten Lord Demon, gained 1 billion Magic Energy.]

[Killed Tier Ten Lord Demon, gained 1 billion Magic Energy.]

[Killed Tier Ten Lord Demon, gained 1 billion Magic Energy.]

In just an instant, three Skeleton Generals fell to her attacks, their nether flames dissipating, bones shattered, dying in an extremely tragic manner.

Even though Lin You was well aware of Cyan Rattan’s strength, he still found himself momentarily stunned.

You should know, these were S-level Lord Demons, with a full 180,000 Constitution, killed in an instant. One can only imagine how terrifying Cyan Rattan is in her state of Bloody Frenzy.

After all, 180,000 Constitution doesn’t merely represent health.

It’s not simply about exceeding 180,000 in attack to kill them in one hit.

It also represents defense. Even an attack of 200,000 can only cause 20,000 damage.

To kill them like this with a few swings was truly worth the arduous collection of these ten thousand corpses.

"Advance at full speed!"

Without wasting any more words, he had the Banshee Vine beside him retrieve the exploded Rule Fragments and treasures using vines before immediately issuing the order to attack.

Then under the frenzied vine attacks of Cyan Rattan, the skeleton demons fell in groups.

Notifications in Lin You’s mind kept popping up.

Finally, after just over two minutes, they eliminated almost half of the Skeleton Generals and skeleton demons.

"Heaven-Devouring, give Cyan Rattan the countdown."

Seeing the Bloody Frenzy effect on Cyan Rattan starting to fade, Lin You quickly had Heaven-Devouring, who was leading the Cannibal Flower Legion to devour the skeletons, cast a Doomsday Countdown Skill on her.

The next second.

An ancient clock face appeared behind Cyan Rattan.

With a "clang," time rewound to a minute before, and the Bloody Frenzy effect surged back once more.

"Just over a minute left, everyone push harder!"

Lin You had already used his Doomsday Countdown previously, so he rushed forward, intentionally letting the ordinary skeleton’s attack fall on him.

With some luck.

The arrow from the Skeleton Archer barely touched his arm before instantly triggering the Phantom Walker’s 50% evasion effect, splitting off an exact illusion clone of himself.

Then, gathering the power of clone rules, he unleashed another Barbaric Roar, sustaining the burst state.

This way, advancing through constant fighting, they finally managed to deal with most of the demons, successfully reaching the vicinity of the pitch-black long sword.
