Chapter 585 - 585 Gou Xiaotian
585 Gou Xiaotian
In a secret place, a hideous-looking foreign race was stretching its head out and looking at the valley.
With one look, it immediately saw the Human army gathered in the valley. Its eyes revealed a look of ecstasy as it turned and left.
Li Xiang and Zhao Yun looked at each other as the foreign race left. They could see a hint of solemness in each other’s eyes.
“It’s the Kobold!”
Li Xiang squinted his eyes. Even with just a glance, he could clearly see the other party’s identity. That was a member of the foreign race- Kobold. It was hard to say how strong they were, but their numbers were shocking. Their reproductive ability was very strong.
The number of Kobolds in just the Huge Boulder City had reached millions.
Once one was targeted by a Kobold, it was no different from being targeted by a mad dog. It was extremely brutal.
In particular, this race’s innate ability was very difficult to deal with. They could track based on smell. Once they found a trace, it was almost impossible to get rid of them.
“It’s not easy to deal with them. There are too many Kobolds, dozens of times more than us. Once we start fighting, we’ll be at a disadvantage in terms of momentum,” Said Zhao Yun with a solemn expression.
Sometimes, the quantity tactic was rather terrifying.
“It doesn’t matter. No matter how many of them there are, as long as they dare to come, I’ll completely bury them in this valley. So what if corpses were everywhere? It’s not the first time for the Kingdom of Dawn to fight a strong enemy.”
Li Xiang took a deep breath and said with confidence.
“Inform the others to make preparations. A great battle could happen at any moment.”
Zhao Yun nodded and said to Zhao Sheng.
As the order was passed down, the warriors who were cultivating in the valley began to concentrate their minds and spirits. They were already in a state of readiness to fight at any time.
“They’re found. The Human army is in a valley.”
“An army of over twenty thousand is all in the valley. They seem to be resting. The Kobolds were the first to find it. Moreover, the Kobold army started to gather and move toward the valley. Hundreds of thousands of soldiers have gathered in a short time.”
“According to the agreement, the Human race will be the prey of whoever finds it first. It’s best if one can take all of them down. If not, they would be the prey of others. However, no one will care if they keep their promise or not. Everything still depends on strength.”
“There are too many Kobolds, and they can gather a large army at any time. An army of hundreds of thousands compared to a 20,000 Human army was a difference of more than ten times. Maybe the Kobold will get the steal.”
“Mobilize the army and act in secret.”
The Kobolds found the location of the valley and quickly began to gather the army. They continuously headed toward the valley. This action immediately alarmed the other foreign races. Naturally, they also found the figures of Li Xiang and others.
However, under an unspoken rule, no one made the first move.
This was the opportunity that the Kobold had found to act first. Moreover, seeing a large number of Kobolds gather, no one dared to anger them.
This race’s combat strength might not be very strong, but their numbers were too great.
Especially in the vicinity, where their army was the largest in number, the deterrent force was not small.
Of course, no one would abide by such an unwritten agreement if they had the chance. It could be easily broken at any time.
Only benefits were eternal.
Since the Kobolds were willing to act first, many people were secretly cheering for them. With the Kobolds testing the waters, there was no way to find such cannon fodder. So why not? Who wanted to play both ends if one could be the middle?
…
Outside the valley, countless Kobolds were gathering from all directions, surrounding the entire valley. Every Kobold had a fierce and excited smile on their face.
Their bodies were no different from that of an adult, and they held all kinds of weapons in their hands. Some of them were taller and stronger, and they were giving off a more powerful aura, making them look extremely berserk.
Unlike the gentleness of genuine Qi, the Kobolds’ aura was violent.
What they cultivated was not the genuine Qi cultivation technique, but the Dou Qi cultivation technique.
In fact, many of the foreign races practiced the Dou Qi cultivation technique.
The difference between the two was very obvious. One was violent, while the other was gentle. In terms of combat strength, each had its merits. Winning and losing completely depended on the cultivators. In this world, there was no strongest cultivation technique, but only the strongest person.
The same cultivation technique would often have different combat strengths for the same cultivator.
However, at a certain level, their combat strength would be extremely powerful.
It was easy to cultivate the Dou Qi technique. As long as one had a certain level of intelligence, one could easily get started. It was the most common cultivation system among foreign races.
However, Dou Qi didn’t refine the eight extraordinary meridians and the twelve standard meridians. Instead, it would condense a Dou Qi vortex in the body. With every level up, a new vortex would be formed.
The people who had rushed over were all transcendent elites who had stepped through the threshold of Dou Qi cultivation.
One of them had a thick mane on its neck, and it was wearing a beast hide. It had a belt made of snakeskin on its waist, and it was holding a ferocious sickle in its hand. It was unknown what material the sickle was made of, but it seemed to be a natural rare treasure divine weapon. It gave off a blood-red color like a blood jade.
Its body was two to three times the size of the other Kobolds. As it stood on the ground, it naturally exuded an invisible pressure. All the Kobolds nearby looked at it with deep respect and fanaticism.
This was the race leader of the Kobolds in the grey-maned tribe. It named itself Gou Xiaotian.
“Hmph! The other races are biding their time and watching the surroundings there. They want to make use of the Kobolds as cannon fodder. However, this time, I’ll let you despicable people know that the Kobolds are not weak. A mere 20,000 Human army is like a small splash in front of my army of hundreds of thousands. We can easily exterminate them. We must kill them, and we must also take the treasures.” Gou Xiaotian sneered as he looked around.
How could it not know how many people were spying on it in the dark? Normally one would undoubtedly leave and wait for others to make a move before taking advantage of the situation. However, it was quite confident in the strength of its race, and it had an army of hundreds of thousands. Not only were they not afraid, but they even seemed to be ready to slaughter the entire Human race, and then slap in the faces of those foreign races who wanted to reap the benefits.
It strode forward to the edge of the valley and stood on a hill.
It looked coldly into the valley and saw the Human army still sitting there. Without any hesitation, it waved the sickle in its hand toward the valley and shouted, “My fellows, attack and kill all the humans!”
