Chapter 295: Xin's Secret_3
Therefore, it had incited several subordinate tribes to launch a medium-scale beast tide in the Yuanzhen Kingdom and Yuanwu Kingdom's Cultivation Realm, not too far from Tang Country, thereby diverting the attention of the Tang Family and other powerful human cultivators.
Its purpose in doing so was very simple; it was to take advantage of the chaos to obtain those Fifth Order Spiritual Medicine Materials.
However, at the beginning of the beast tide, human cultivators did not react violently, and top-notch Nascent Soul cultivators were unwilling to act.
Especially Tang Tianlong, the elder ancestor of the Tang Family, whose strength and cultivation were not low, had never shown his face, and his exact whereabouts were unknown.
Yan Qian, who was afraid of startling the snake by beating the grass, did not dare to act rashly, lest he was detected by human cultivators.
He was well aware that it was alright if he temporarily could not obtain that treasure.
Once his whereabouts and the news of the treasure leaked out, trying to obtain those Fifth Order Spiritual Medicine Materials from the prepared human cultivators would not be as simple as launching a medium-scale beast tide.
As a result, he could only be more patient, intensifying the beast tide's onslaught to attract the attention of Tang Tianlong and other powerhouses.
As time passed, it had been almost half a year since Yuanwu Kingdom was eradicated.
Seeing the war between the two races getting increasingly fierce, both sides had paid a price.
And the Demon Beast Army continued its onslaught deep into human territory. Even with Yuanwu Kingdom eradicated, there were still no signs of retreat.
At this point, Qingzhou's top human powerhouses were finally paying attention to the progress of the beast tide's attack.
Eventually, the Demon Beast Army continued to advance, entering the Yuanzhen Kingdom's Cultivation Realm and getting not too far away from Tang Country.
Seeing that Tang Family's territory was about to be threatened, Tang Tianlong had no choice but to get involved.
He had to come forward, inviting top forces from the surrounding areas for support, before sending out a large number of elites to join the resistance against the beast tide in Yuanzhen Kingdom.
Tang Tianlong himself took the field, took charge within Yuanzhen Kingdom's borders, and led the many cultivators who had come to support, to cope with the Demon Beast Army's attack.
However, such a move played right into Yan Qian's hands.
Taking advantage of the human cultivators' diverted attention, Yan Qian stealthily infiltrated Nanfeng Country's Cultivation Realm and successfully obtained those Fifth Order Spiritual Medicine Materials.
However, upon obtaining the treasure, he caused quite a stir and attracted the attention of some Golden Core Forces.
Yan Qian couldn't be bothered with them and, having gained the treasure, promptly left Nanfeng Country's Cultivation Realm.
Even though those Golden Core Forces noticed the commotion and reported it to Tang Tianlong at the earliest opportunity,
the speed of human cultivators was no match for the Fourth Order late-stage Yan Qian. They were simply not on the same level.
By the time Tang Tianlong received the news and wanted to give chase, Yan Qian had long since joined up with the Demon Beast Army.
With his goal achieved, continuing the fight had little meaning.
Moreover, not wanting to waste any time, Yan Qian led the Demon Beast Army to slowly retreat from the mountains, rivers, and lands within Yuanzhen Kingdom's borders back to the Demon Race's heartland.
Seeing this, human cultivators at the center of the great battle naturally would not let things go easily. They poured out in droves, keen to kill as many of the demonic beasts as possible.
Yan Qian had anticipated this and ordered some demonic beasts to cover the rear while leading the main forces to successfully retreat back into Demon Race territory.
As for the abandoned Monster Beast Legion, as well as those branch legions distributed across various countries, they would retreat if possible. If not, they were to be sacrificed to quell the fury of the human powerhouses.
...
Recalling these secrets unknown to the human race, Yan Qian couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions.
But now that the matter had come to an end, even the top human powerhouses, despite any complaints, could not do anything to him.
Returning to the present, Yan Qian exchanged a few words with the few strong members of the Demon Race by his side, confirming some details about the remnants of the Demon Beast Army.
Soon, high-level consensus within the Demon Race was reached; they would abandon some of the less important Demon Beast Tribes, leaving them to fend for themselves.
However, the human cultivators were unaware of these decisions. In the vast majority of regions, they were still resisting the invasion of the demonic beasts.
