Chapter 641: Volcanic Defense Line
The reason why the demons decided to attack the Western Regions at the beginning was mainly because the demon clan decided to attack the Northern Regions, and the two clans cooperated to capture the territory of the Northern and Western Regions of the Terran Race, even if they could not completely capture the Northern Regions and the Western Regions, as long as they could capture part of the Terran territory, it would be a big profit for the Demon Race and the Demon Race.
But now their demon army has captured a quarter of the territory of the Western Regions, and on the demon clan's side, except for a Northern Xia Dynasty, they have hardly achieved anything over the years.
If the demon clan gives up conquering the northern region at this time, then the demon clan will be very passive.
After all, once there is no containment of the demon clan, the three major immortal sects in the Northern Regions can send strong reinforcements to support the Western Regions without any scruples, and at that time, their demon clan will face the six major sects of the ten immortal sects of the human race alone, and the pressure can be imagined.
Of course, with the strength of the Demon Race, even if he faced the ten immortal sects of the Human Race alone, he would have the strength to fight.
But in this way, no matter what the final outcome of the war is, for the demon clan, it is bound to pay a heavy price, and the demon clan is very likely to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
This is absolutely unacceptable to them.
As for retreating, let's not talk about whether the demons will give up the meat they have already eaten, even if they are willing to give up, but now that their demon army has penetrated deep into the Western Regions, retreating at this time, the human race will definitely give up.
At that time, even if they can successfully retreat to the Southern Regions, I am afraid that they will suffer heavy casualties.
The Heart Demon Ancestor obviously understood the seriousness of the matter, and after pondering for a while, he said, "The Demon Clan may not give up on conquering the Northern Regions because of this, and even if they really dare to give up, we can sit down and negotiate with the Ten Immortal Dao Sects." ”
After a slight pause, he continued: "I believe that as long as the ten immortal Dao sects are not stupid, they will not fight with us to the end, and let the demon clan sit on the profits of the fisherman." ”
The Nine Demon Emperor's eyes flashed slightly: "I'm afraid that the demon god will turn against me and join forces with the human race to deal with my demon clan, and then there will be a big trouble." ”
The Heart Demon Ancestor's pupils shrank when he heard this, he hadn't thought of this before, but after being reminded by the Nine Demon Emperors, he suddenly understood the seriousness of the matter.
However, he was still a little incredulous: "It should be unlikely that the demon clan will do this, after all, we and their demon clan are still nominal allies." ”
"In the face of absolute interests, there are no eternal enemies, and there are no eternal allies, since the demon clan can even tear the ancient covenant, what is there that they can't do now?" The Nine Demon Emperor said coldly: "Of course, we are the same. ”
The Heart Demon Ancestor nodded and said, "Regarding the fact that the demon clan is very likely to defect, we have to guard against it. ”
"I'll give this matter to the six-armed Demon Saint, and when the time comes, let's hear what the Demon Saint means. The Nine Demon Emperor's expression regained his composure and said.
The Heart Demon Ancestor's eyes condensed slightly: "I will also report this matter to the sect master, and we will also be responsible for informing the Tiansha Demon Palace, and then the three of us will sit down and talk about it." ”
"Well, the three of us join forces, even if the demon clan really intends to turn against us, we have to see if they have the appetite to eat us. The Nine Demon Emperor nodded, and the cold light in his eyes flashed.
Originally, he was still a little concerned about Duan Chen's recent movements, but now the abnormal behavior of the Demon God Society made him smell a hint of conspiracy, and he no longer had the leisure to pay attention to Duan Chen, and naturally he didn't know that Duan Chen was near the volcanic defense line about thousands of miles away from him at this moment.
"This is the volcanic line?"
Looking at the continuous volcanoes in the sky in the distance, Duan Chen raised his eyebrows slightly, and immediately motioned for the ghost to stop first.
Ghost Yu obviously noticed the volcano group in the distance, and stopped and asked, "Master, what should we do next?" According to the information we have found, the person who is stationed in this volcanic defense line should be Jinguang Temple, one of the affiliated forces under the command of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect. ”
"I know. Duan Chen's eyes showed a solemn look.
Jinguang Temple, although it is one of the subordinate forces under the command of the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect, but the strength should not be underestimated, it is not at all comparable to the forces of the Iron Mountain Sect, it is said that in this Jinguang Temple, there are two monks alone, and there are dozens of Yuanying monks.
Looking at the entire Western Regions, if you don't count the Tianchen Sect, the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect and the Spirit Beast Palace, the strength of this Golden Light Temple is enough to rank in the top ten.
"I don't know if the two god-transforming monks of the Golden Light Temple have been transferred to garrison the volcanic defense line. Duan Chen muttered to himself.
Although the dozens of Yuanying monks in Jinguang Temple were not easy to deal with, the two Avatar Monks who posed the greatest threat to him were obviously those two Avatar Cultivators.
If they were stationed inside the volcanic defense line at this moment, that Duan Chen would definitely not dare to go from the side of the volcanic defense line.
Thinking of the horror of the Transformation Stage Cultivator, Duan Chen suddenly fell into hesitation.
After a while, he telegraphed and asked, "Seven Immortals Senior, can you sense if there is a Transformation Stage cultivator in that volcanic defense line?"
"There's no near here, and I don't know about the rest of the place. The Seven Demon Lords spoke.
Duan Chen was stunned when he heard this, and then suddenly, the entire volcanic defense line was from west to east, with a total length of more than 1,200 li, with the power of the divine sense of the Seven Demon Lords, he could explore a radius of 800 miles at most, and it could not cover the entire volcano defense line.
As for Duan Chen himself, the power of his divine sense was slightly inferior to that of the Seven Demon Lords, covering a radius of more than six hundred miles at most, and it was also impossible to determine whether the entire volcanic defense line had a Divine Transformation Stage cultivator in charge.
However, he could sense that there were a total of seven Yuanying monks in Jinguang Temple in this area, scattered within a radius of six hundred miles.
In addition to this, there are also a large number of Jindan monks, who are constantly patrolling the entire defense line inside and outside.
"The cultivators of the Transformation Stage of the Golden Light Temple should not be in the area of the volcanic defense line. Just when Duan Chen was worried about it in his heart, the Heaven Locking Temple Instrument Spirit, who knew more about the Western Regions, suddenly spoke.
"Why did the senior say this?" Duan Chen was overjoyed when he heard this, but he still asked with some unease.
"It's very simple, although the Golden Light Temple has two Avatar Cultivators, in order to guard the mountain gate, at least one will be left in the temple, and as for the other, most of them will be transferred to the main battlefield. ”
The Heavenly Locking Temple's spirit words explained: "After all, in the entire Western Regions battlefield, the Avatar Cultivator is already considered a high-end combat power, and if it is only used to guard a border defense line, it will inevitably be overkill. ”
The words of the Heavenly Lock Temple Instrument Spirit made Duan Chen's eyes light up.
The demons are known for their ferocity and aggressiveness, and I believe that the danger on the side of the main battlefield must be far greater than that on the side of the volcano defense line, and in such a situation, it is indeed unlikely that the Avatar Monk of Jinshan Temple will be transferred here to garrison.
However, just in case, Duan Chen still planned to plan carefully before deciding where to break through the volcanic defense line.
