In the Immortal Demon Tribe.
Xiao Mo's expression shifted slightly upon hearing Mo Wuxin's report, a hint of surprise in his heart.
He hadn't expected the allied forces of the Immortal Slaying Demon Subjugation Alliance to arrive so quickly. He had initially thought these people wouldn't reach the vicinity of the Vast Forest until tomorrow at the earliest.
"How many have arrived so far?"
Xiao Mo raised an eyebrow and inquired of Mo Wuxin.
"Reporting to Master, as of now, nearly a hundred Lords have arrived, along with four to five thousand flying units!"
Mo Wuxin respectfully replied, "Master, I believe the strength of those Lords and their subordinate units is not very high. It seems the highest only reaches Tier Ten!"
"If I were to go, I could slay them all with my own strength!"
As he spoke, a murderous intent flickered in Mo Wuxin's eyes.
Anyone or any creature that dared to invade their Master's territory deserved to die!
His current cultivation level was already the low-grade Monarch Tier, and he had successfully evolved to the Heavenly Tier Demon Commander.
With his current strength, combined with his ability to traverse the void freely, he could potentially assassinate ordinary low-grade Saint Tier powerhouses.
Therefore, dealing with these enemies, whose strength did not exceed Tier Ten, would be as easy as playing a fruit-cutting game.
Furthermore, with his speed, it would take less than five minutes to eliminate all the enemies gathered far from the Vast Forest.
However, Xiao Mo shook his head and waved his hand.
Then, he curved his lips and said to Mo Wuxin, "What's the hurry? These are just small fries. We are waiting for the truly big fish behind them! When all the allied forces have assembled, wouldn't it be a delightful pleasure to strike and catch them all in one fell swoop?"
Then, Xiao Mo raised his hand and rubbed his temples, musing for a moment before continuing, "However, if they dare to trespass into our territory, there's no need to say more. Directly eliminate them! But make sure it's done discreetly!"
"Yes, Master!"
Mo Wuxin bowed to Xiao Mo and responded, then his figure vanished from Xiao Mo's sight.
After Mo Wuxin left, Xiao Mo shook his head dismissively.
Currently, these people were just a disorganized rabble, incapable of causing any significant trouble.
Most importantly, these individuals lacked any strategic thinking; they were all like simpletons.
If he were the leader of the Immortal Slaying Demon Subjugation Alliance, he would have set a specific assembly time, ensuring that all participating alliance members arrived at the Vast Forest simultaneously.
At the very least, the current situation would not have occurred.
The first wave of nearly a hundred Lords, along with four to five thousand troops, had rushed over in a hurry.
While they had arrived quickly, it gave Xiao Mo the opportunity to break them down individually.
If Xiao Mo had wanted to act, these people would likely already be dead bodies.
Then, all Xiao Mo would have to do was dispatch his subordinate troops to wait at the edge of the Vast Forest, setting a trap for them.
Kill one as they come, destroy one wave as they arrive!
With enough casualties, the remaining members of the Immortal Slaying Demon Subjugation Alliance on their way would naturally flee at the first sign of danger, daring not to assemble further.
In this way, this grand and widely known first alliance expeditionary war could be declared a failure.
From this perspective alone, these people had clearly never participated in a proper large-scale war, otherwise, they wouldn't be so foolish.
However, while Xiao Mo was confident, he didn't believe that the high command of such a large alliance would be completely devoid of intelligence.
Perhaps the alliance's top brass had set a time, but they were unable to enforce strict discipline, resulting in a group of individuals acting independently and arriving at the edge of the Vast Forest first.
This indicated that the main force of the Immortal Slaying Demon Subjugation Alliance had not yet arrived.
Therefore, Xiao Mo was not in a hurry. What harm could letting them frolic there do?
At most, they were just enjoying their final moments.
The main force of the allied army should arrive tomorrow, and that would be the best time for Xiao Mo to make his move.
A thousand Lords and tens of thousands of troops. While it might not be possible to annihilate them all, they should at least be reduced by over ninety percent.
Only then could they serve as a warning to others, striking the tiger to awe the monkeys.
This would make those Lords who had been observing from the sidelines tremble with fear and abandon any further ambitions.
Xiao Mo looked up at the sky above the clouds, where the majestic Nine Heavens Nine Nether City resided.
The small-scale Immortal Demon energy cannons on it could be activated once for fifty Immortal Demon Stones each, while the giant Immortal Demon energy cannons could be activated once for a thousand Immortal Demon Stones or five Spirit Stones.
In other words, with the current reserves of Immortal Demon Stones and Spirit Stones, the small-scale Immortal Demon energy cannons could fire over 180 times, and the giant Immortal Demon energy cannons could fire over twenty times (including using Spirit Stones)!
This was definitely enough to blast the fully assembled allied forces of the Immortal Slaying Demon Subjugation Alliance into ashes!
As for the exposure of the war fortress, Nine Heavens Nine Nether City, Xiao Mo didn't even consider it.
If it was exposed, so be it. What could be done?
Was he afraid that someone would dare to steal it?
After this war ended, who would still have the audacity?
Just then, the blue light on the plaza suddenly intensified.
Xiao Mo was startled from his contemplation and looked up at the Black Dragon Emperor Egg suspended in mid-air.
He saw a very clear crack appear in the center of the egg.
"Crack, crack!"
The next moment, the eggshell split open, and a small, dark head emerged from it.
Then came the two front claws, followed by a round, plump body and a pair of fleshy wings, and finally the hind claws and a thick, powerful dragon tail.
"This little guy is finally born!"
Xiao Mo exclaimed and walked towards the little black dragon.
The little black dragon was about 1.5 meters long, covered in dark, glossy scales.
It also had a pair of fleshy wings growing on its back. Although they were not fully developed yet, Xiao Mo estimated that when these wings were spread, they would definitely be longer than the little black dragon's body.
After emerging from the eggshell, the little black dragon immediately let out a few low roars at the seven Black Blood Dragon Pythons.
The Black Blood Dragon Pythons immediately lowered their heads. Although they did not prostrate themselves, they appeared very respectful.
This was mainly because the little black dragon possessed the pure Black Dragon Emperor bloodline, while these Black Blood Dragon Pythons, despite their strength, also had a trace of Black Dragon blood flowing within them.
Sensing the regal aura emanating from the little black dragon, they naturally felt a primal sense of reverence.
Even though the newly born little black dragon appeared as weak as a chick to them, they remained respectful, not daring to be rude to it.
This was the strict hierarchy within the dragon race, with clear distinctions of superiority and inferiority.
However, if it were other dragon races or demonic beasts with other dragon bloodlines, they would not take the little black dragon seriously.
To them, the little black dragon's innate Black Dragon Emperor bloodline would even be a valuable tonic.
Only divine dragons of the same race would revere their Dragon Emperor, while divine dragons of different races would often engage in conflict.
Within the dragon race itself, different factions of divine dragons frequently waged war against each other.
This was because dragons, in essence, were a warlike species.
"Crunch, crunch..."
The little black dragon roared a couple of times, then turned and began to eat the eggshell that had fallen on the ground piece by piece.
The dragon eggshell itself contained infinite power, as well as the inheritance of the previous Black Dragon Emperor.
As soon as the eggshell was swallowed, waves of blue light began to emanate from the little black dragon's body, and its body began to grow rapidly.
This was the first evolution that all divine dragons underwent upon birth, and it was the most important evolution in their lives.
By the time the little black dragon had swallowed all the eggshell, its body had grown to over three meters long, and its wings had fully unfurled.
"Roar..."
Feeling the immense power surging within its body, the little black dragon tilted its head back and let out a somewhat juvenile dragon roar.
It was this roar that caused the seven Black Blood Dragon Pythons to immediately prostrate themselves, their massive eyes flashing with deep reverence.
Then, the little black dragon flapped its wings, and after two or three beats, it soared into the sky, soaring excitedly through the air.
Watching the little black dragon frolic joyfully in the sky, Xiao Mo's face revealed a look of relief and satisfaction.
Then, he suppressed his smile and said sternly to the little black dragon in the sky, "Return here!"
