Chapter 1167 - 116 - 117 Thousand Miles Eye Downwind Ear
Time traced back to half a month ago, after Pang Hong agreed to the invitation extended by the Mo Family Four Brothers, he temporarily delegated many of Shenxiao Sect’s affairs to Yu Zhenzi and set out for the location agreed upon with the Brothers of Mo Family.
Pang Hong was well aware that the task at hand would absolutely not be easy. According to the messages from the Mo Family Brothers, among the Demon Race guarding the Divine Object, there existed a Supreme Strong Demon King.
"The area we are currently in was once at the heart of the Demon Race territories. Given the clearly defined hierarchy within the Demon Race, any tribe able to possess a territory here and control such a Divine Object is definitely not an easy target."
Inside the Demon Race, the hierarchy is even more pronounced than among the human race. Despite the presence of a Demon Emperor, infighting within the Demon Race has never ceased. In the Demon Race, customs and morality as humans understand them are scarce, and power often determines everything.
One could describe the Demon Race as centered around the Demon Court, with various Demon Race forces overlapping in concentric circles according to strength and weakness, unlike the human forces that occupy their own territories.
Over the years, the Demon Race has been losing ground, forsaking much of their domain and seemingly at a disadvantage. However, if one were to truly calculate, the core areas of the Demon Race remained intact, and their power had not decreased significantly. The closer to the Demon Court, the stronger the tribes.
This is also why, over the years, the advancement of the human army has slowed down. Besides the Demon Race having no room to retreat, the tribes encountered have become increasingly powerful.
That the Mo Family Brothers had discovered a tribe with a Divine Object guarded by a Supreme Strong being was not surprising at all. Only tribes of significant strength could possess such an object in this region, and their power should not be underestimated.
For a tribe to possess a Divine Object and not be coveted signifies their formidable power and a high standing within the Demon Race, comparable even to the major forces within the human race.
Facing such power and attempting to take the Divine Object from their grasp would undoubtedly pose great danger. Hence, on this occasion, Pang Hong did not dare hold back. He even brought the Induction Incarnation item bestowed by his master.
Pang Hong originally possessed several items capable of summoning Pei Xuanjing’s Incarnation, but those were all left by Pei Xuanjing before he became a True Immortal, capable of summoning only an Incarnation at the Strongest Realm.
According to common sense, even though the mission was risky, with Pang Hong’s strength and his trump cards, he shouldn’t have encountered any danger as long as no True Immortal intervened.
