Chapter 2311: Blocking Reinforcements, Seizing the Divine Shuttle Ship

Rumble...

The prisoners and the death soldiers were inexplicably drawn into a battle.

Each one shouted, "What’s going on?" But the demons offered no response, and Sikong Jing was too lazy to answer.

Thus, two hours passed, and all the prisoners and death soldiers were lying on the ground, vomiting blood continuously.

Sikong Jing continued, "Those below the Venerable realm, exit the barrier first; those above, follow me into the depths of the prison."

With that, the powerful demons followed Sikong Jing in search of the sacrifices.

Whether entering the depths of the prison or exiting the barrier, all the demons were... Boom! Boom! Boom!

Each one, after some training, broke through again; regardless of strength, they all advanced together. The previously strongest Holy Martial demons reached the Third Stage of Holy Martial, becoming even more formidable.

In the blink of an eye, the prisoners near the barrier completely lost sight of the demons.

Chai Gong was lying on the ground, spitting blood while asking frantically, "Damn it, what the hell is this?"

No one could answer that question, and in the blink of an eye, another two hours passed... Whoosh!

The powerful demons returned under Sikong Jing’s leadership, bringing back a crowd of sacrifices.

At this moment, Chai Gong slightly recovered and blocked Sikong Jing, demanding, "Damn you, who the hell are you?"

"Didn’t I already say? I’m Hei Lin."

Upon finishing, Sikong Jing twisted aside and slammed into the already heavily injured Chai Gong, directly knocking him out of the barrier, then vanished from the prisoners’ view. Of course, the other powerful demons swiftly followed.

In an instant, the prisoners and death soldiers were dumbfounded again.

They murmured, "What the hell is this, why can they, clearly humans, go outside?"

This scene was even more bizarre than the situation that had just unfolded...

In everyone’s view, the black-clad youth was from the Human Clan, and all his Holy Martial experts were humans too.

They were completely unaware of the demon extermination matters.

Meanwhile, Chai Gong still couldn’t understand why this black-clad youth kept calling himself Hei Lin, but he couldn’t help but brighten up and say, "Could it be that the prison’s rules have changed, and now the Human Clan can leave?"

Seeing the black-clad youth leave the barrier, Chai Gong and the others were naturally inclined to think this way.

Perhaps something happened outside, changing the prison’s rules.

Saying this, Chai Gong’s heart burned as he rushed towards the direction of the barrier, then... Wah!

Chai Gong crashed heavily into the barrier, crying out miserably, thrown dizzy, then roared madly for a good while, "Why can the black-clad youth go out and I can’t? Damn it, it’s unfair."

All the prisoners, feeling heated, tried as well, but regrettably, none could go out.

When everyone failed to escape...

Finally, a little death soldier quickly approached Chai Gong, blankly asking, "Lord Chai Gong, he said he’s the Demon Vein Master, and that he is Hei Lin, and he can go outside... Could he really be the previous Black Scale Demon?"

Aside from this explanation, it seemed there was none other.

Chai Gong’s eyes widened, then he shook his head heavily, "Impossible, how could the Black Scale Demon turn into a human? And that black-clad youth is terrifying, whereas the martial arts of the Black Scale Demon were completely pathetic..."

"But, if they’re not demons, how did they go out?" The little death soldier asked again.

Suddenly, Chai Gong was even more confused, completely losing sense of direction.

At this moment, his Transmission Stone suddenly lit up...

His entire body shook violently, his eyes flashing with divine light, "The Great Gate Master is summoning me, I’ll head to the transmission array now..."

After saying this, Chai Gong didn’t hesitate, rushing towards the transmission array inside the prison, eager to seek answers from the Great Gate Master.

...

Outside the prison...

Sikong Jing and others brought the sacrificial demons out, while Teng Yue was waiting outside.

The latter spoke softly, "Hei Lin brother, Chai Jiu is pressing very close. Uncle Ying and the others are negotiating with him as per your instructions, but Chai Jiu might not hold back much longer."

After leaving the prison, he discussed with Ying Sanmeng and the other Yu Vein leaders.

They were posing as though negotiating with Sikong Jing, purposefully making the Cang Lineage think they were in talks with the Demon Vein; but now, more than two hours had passed, and Cang Lineage could barely hold back, preparing to attack.

They feared that they might not be able to stall any further!

Regarding this, Sikong Jing returned Teng Yue a reassuring look, "Wait a little longer, Chai Jiu will definitely seek confirmation from Chai Gong."

Confirmation?

Teng Yue felt puzzled, and then Sikong Jing explained to him.

That is, Chai Jiu will surely summon Chai Gong out to confirm whether this Black Scale Demon went into the barrier, whether he went to receive the first generation Demon Vein Master’s legacy.

"As long as he confirms I didn’t go to receive the legacy, Chai Jiu will be assured and won’t act hastily."

"And I need more time to let the demons continue to strengthen... I also need more time to gather the demons from the Divine Demon Island sea domain, marshal our forces, etc. Only when the demons become stronger can we completely suppress the Cang Lineage."

"The first step in the upcoming battle will be to drive the Cang Lineage people out of the Divine Demon Island."

Listening to Sikong Jing, Teng Yue widened his eyes.

He looked at several strong Holy Martial demons, discovering they had indeed reached the Third Stage of Holy Martial, and for a moment, felt it might not be impossible to drive the Cang Lineage away.

However, Teng Yue quickly thought of something else, and further said, "But by then, the Cang Lineage reinforcements will arrive."

With the arrival of Cang Lineage reinforcements, driving them away would be impossible.

Sikong Jing laughed, "Cang Lineage reinforcements won’t be arriving, at least most won’t initially reach the Divine Demon Island, because my Demon Vein soldiers will intercept their reinforcements outside, and seize their Divine Shuttle Ship."

Upon hearing this, Teng Yue’s pupils constricted rapidly, his body shook violently.

Not long after, when Teng Yue left the prison walls, his mind was still buzzing, realizing only then what Sikong Jing meant by "having more Divine Shuttle Ships."

Sikong Jing was gathering demons from various Demon Islands, not to bring them all to Divine Demon Island.

Instead, they were first assigned to... the sea domain between the Absolute Formation Gate and Divine Demon Island, where they would ambush and annihilate the Cang Lineage reinforcements.

Currently, most of the Cang Lineage’s high-level experts were on Divine Demon Island, hence the reinforcements wouldn’t have any particularly strong experts, and the constantly strengthening demons would surely eradicate many of them.

By robbing them of their Divine Shuttle Ships, more and more demon soldiers would assemble.

"Hei Lin brother, you’re amazing."

Previously, Teng Yue thought Hei Lin brother was already terrifying, but the more he interacted, the more he felt as though Hei Lin brother’s strength was limitless.

Finally, Teng Yue returned among the Yu Vein members...

He didn’t reveal Sikong Jing’s next plans, of course, fearing Cang Lineage might overhear. He only told Ying Sanmeng and the others to continue acting, pretending to be negotiating with Demon Vein.

...

Time passed little by little.

Two hours later, a beam of light suddenly appeared beside Chai Jiu, followed by Chai Gong emerging from the prison.

It was Chai Jiu who summoned him from the prison using the Transmission Stone.
