Chapter 481: Harvest
More than ten days after the battle, Xu Lun tallied the gains and losses of the conflict and handed the report over to Wang Hong.
In this battle, although Xu Lun had two squads under his command, he had only deployed one of them, utilizing less than half of their overall strength.@@@@
Even with this limited effort, they had achieved a resounding victory, utterly crushing the Demon Wolves tribe.
Among the Golden Core Cultivators who participated in the battle, three were wounded, and none had died.
At the Golden Core Level, Yunxia Mountain's forces typically teamed up in groups of five or six to besiege a third-tier Demonic Beast. If there had been significant casualties, it would have been a great embarrassment.
Aside from the Golden Core Cultivators, the core force in the battle consisted of Mortal villagers who had undergone decades of training.
Over two thousand Ginseng warriors had faced attacks from numerous Demonic Beasts, but they had held their formation steady. After the battle, there were more than four hundred casualties, but they emerged victorious.
Following this battle, in the area that had originally been home to three major powers and over ten minor forces, only Yunxia Mountain remained as a major power, along with the presence of the Five Minor Factions.
At that time, the Demon Wolves tribe had rallied other tribes to attack Yunxia Mountain. After Yunxia Mountain's decisive victory, they had also wiped out the other Demon Clan factions.
As for the Five Minor Factions that were spared, they were essentially left for training newcomers to hunt Demonic Beasts.
The growth and reproduction of Mortal villagers were swift, with a new generation emerging every ten years. If they were all killed, who would go hunting Demonic Beasts and feeding the demon-hunting tree in the area?
Now, Demonic Beasts were their source of strength, even the ones kept within their territory were considered a source of food.
After raiding the homes of all the Demon Clans, they had also acquired a large amount of resources, all of which were stored in their warehouses.
Then, individuals could exchange these resources for contribution points according to their needs.
Up to now, most of the Golden Core Cultivators under Xu Lun's command still didn't have Lifebound Magical Treasures.
The resources obtained from this harvest could allow some of them to refine their own Lifebound Magical Treasures.
Furthermore, they had found two mineral veins in the Demon Wolves' territory that produced materials for refining second-tier and a small amount of third-tier refining tools.
"I also have a bottle of third-tier pills here, something I recently developed. You can give it a try."
After handing over the magic weapons to Liu Changsheng, Wang Hong produced a bottle of pills and gave it to him.
This bottle of pills was named Ink Jade Pill by Wang Hong. It was primarily made from Ink Jade Spirit Lotus produced from his Space, combined with other rare Spiritual Herbs. Wang Hong had conducted numerous experiments before successfully refining it.
Although Wang Hong had collected many third-tier pill recipes from the Sect's Scripture Tower, he had been unable to gather all the required Spiritual Herbs for a long time. Frustrated, he had to find a solution on his own, using the Spiritual Herbs he currently possessed to conduct experiments, eventually resulting in the creation of the Ink Jade Pill.
"Thank you! Thank you, East Master!" Liu Changsheng expressed his gratitude repeatedly. Third-tier pills were incredibly rare, and the process of gathering various Spiritual Herbs to refine one was a time-consuming and laborious task.
Moreover, even if one managed to gather all the necessary Spiritual Herbs, finding a third-tier Alchemist was another challenge. Third-tier Alchemists were exceedingly scarce, typically requiring the Golden Core cultivation level, a level achieved by only a few individuals in the entire East Zhou region.
Many major Sects in the past did not even have a third-tier Alchemist among their ranks.
With great joy, Liu Changsheng carefully stored the pills and then reported some of the recent intelligence to Wang Hong.
After listening to various reports, one piece of information caught Wang Hong's attention, as it concerned Yunxia Mountain.
Previously, Yunxia Mountain had dispatched ten squads of Golden Core Cultivators for the sole purpose of hunting and seizing treasures from various Demon Clans, causing a significant stir among the Demon Clans of East Zhou.
Although they had already withdrawn these ten squads in a timely manner and hidden them away, the Demon Clans were not willing to let the matter rest. For the past two years, they had been secretly searching, fearing that these squads might suddenly reappear and catch them off guard.
After all, judging from the Golden Core Cultivators that had emerged, there were at least dozens of them, a force sufficient to make the major Demon Clan powers take notice.
Wang Hong had been mentally prepared for this. Their recent victory over the combined forces of the Demon Wolves and Demon Bull had unified the region. Such a conspicuous event was bound to draw the attention of various Demon Clans. Once they were noticed, it wouldn't take long for their intentions to become apparent.
With his current strength, he wasn't overly afraid. With hundreds of Golden Core Cultivators under his command, unless the Demon Clans united once again and concentrated their forces against him, he felt relatively secure.
"In the future, keep a close eye on news from Taihao City and Azure Void City. If the Demon Clans take any action, notify me immediately."
Yunxia Mountain was closest to these two major powers, so if anything happened, it would likely involve these two factions.
