Kang Shin-mu, along with Xiao Yuhua and the other four, became the first batch of explorers in order to earn Guardian points.
According to the Demon God Ancestor, the first batch of explorers would not be in much danger. They would not encounter people from the Nine Major Clans. They would most likely encounter slaves of the Nine Major Clans.
Of course, if their luck was really bad, there was nothing they could do …
Kang Shin-mu felt that his luck was pretty good, so he led the first batch of explorers to leave the Martial Dragon Fortress.
There were about ten teams like the five of them in the first batch. They left the Martial Dragon Fortress with the goal of hunting members of the Nine Major Clans.
All the other Dragon Martialists were waiting for them to bring back the results.
…
Kang Shin-mu and the others set off from the Martial Dragon Fortress and flew in the direction of the Demon God Clan's base.
The Demon God Clan was the race they were most familiar with. The key was that the demon slaves of the Demon God Clan were existences like demon beasts. Most of them had no intelligence and were familiar with their fighting style.
The Demon God Clan was a great enemy of the Dragon God Clan.
Therefore, in the Martial Dragon Continent, they raised so many demon beasts for the Dragon Martialists to practice with. This was so that after the Dragon Martialists were trained, the students could quickly adapt to the battle with the Demon God Clan.
"The Demon God Clan usually releases demon slaves to scout out the situation. There won't be any Demon God Clan members."
Kang Shin-mu speculated according to the Demon God Ancestor's consciousness and said to Xiao Yuhua and the others, "Let's see how it goes. If we encounter a demon slave that we can beat, we will kill it. If we can't, we will run."
Demon slaves were sometimes very strong. For example, high-rank Demon General-level void demons.
If there were more of them, Kang Shin-mu might not be able to beat them.
Now that both sides were at the testing stage, Kang Shin-mu felt that he should not be so unlucky.
"The number of Guardian points obtained from hunting slaves of the Nine Major Clans is the same as the number obtained from hunting demon-hunting monsters."
Liang Xiao said in a low voice, "If we can hunt members of the Nine Major Clans, we can exchange ten times more Guardian points for opponents of the same level."
"It's not easy to meet the real members of the Nine Races."
Xiao Yuhua shook her head. "It's said that when these races fight, they let their slaves go first. When the real clansmen appear, it's basically when the slaves win."
"That's not necessarily the case."
Kang Shin-mu shook his head and said, "To be honest, what kind of opponent we'll meet is completely up to luck."
The four of them nodded in agreement.
In order to avoid being ambushed, they immediately transformed into dragons and flew out of the Martial Dragon Fortress, heading for the starry sky.
Along the way, nothing too nerve-wracking happened.
He did not even sense the slightest trace of the Demon God Clan's aura.
This made Xiao Yuhua and the others a little puzzled, but under Kang Shin-mu's reminder, they still maintained absolute vigilance.
Suddenly, just as they were halfway to the crack in the void, the void next to them distorted. Then, one after another, black leopard demon beasts appeared from the distorted void!
Each of these black leopards was hundreds of feet long, and they were all experts at the Demon Emperor level!
There was a total of five black leopards, all Demon Slaves of the Demon God Clan. They were all Demon Emperors above the seventh level of the Reincarnation Tribulation Realm.
Each of these five black leopard demon slaves was about the same strength as the Demon Stone Emperor that Kang Shin-mu had encountered on the Martial Dragon Continent. The five black leopard demon slaves together could completely crush Kang Shin-mu's group of five!
Of course, this was only under normal circumstances.
If Xiao Yuhua and the others encountered these four black leopard demon slaves, they definitely would not be able to defeat them.
But … with the addition of Kang Shin-mu, the situation was completely different.
Compared to the time when he was on the Martial Dragon Continent, Kang Shin-mu's devouring power had already transformed. His cultivation level and the grade of the divine dragon blood essence had also improved.
Moreover, he had obtained the Wind Snow Dragon Patterned Stone, an earth-grade Saint Spiritual Dragon Weapon.
His combat strength was much stronger than before!
"Fight!"
Kang Shin-mu roared. His entire black dragon body charged directly in the direction of the three black leopard demon slaves. The devouring power in his body condensed into the Shadow Dragon Sky-Propping Smash. Six black dragon heads appeared in the void, condensing into six pitch-black beams of light that swept towards the three black leopard demon slaves!
This was the Demon God Clan's test, so Kang Shin-mu did not need to hold back.
After all, the Demon God Clan was very clear about many things. Even if they were testing, they had to ensure that they had the upper hand.
Although Demonic Slaves weren't important to them, they weren't dispensable either. It wasn't difficult to nurture a Demonic Sovereign Realm Demonic Slave, but it would take a long time. If they lost too many Demonic Slaves in a single war, the Demon God Tribe wouldn't be able to bear it.
Similarly, the Demon God Clan's void demons were the same. Void demons did not fear death, but if they lost too many, the Demon God Clan would also feel the pinch.
That was why they had let the void demons be on the defensive, retreating to the vicinity of the void rift. They did not take the initiative to attack the Martial Dragon Fortress.
Kang Shin-mu's attack arrived in an instant, but his Shadow Dragon Sky-Propping Smash posed no threat to these demon slaves.
The Shadow Dragon Sky-Propping Smash was only a low-grade Origin Source Dragon martial technique. Even if it was cultivated to the heaven-grade, its power was only so-so. To the black leopard demon slaves with coarse skin and flesh, it posed no threat at all. The key was that Kang Shin-mu's foundation was too weak.
If Kang Shin-mu had inherited blood essence at the level of the Dragon Emperor, the situation would be different. A simple Shadow Dragon Sky-Propping Smash could pose a threat to his opponent.
"Roar!"
When Kang Shin-mu's attack landed on the three black leopard demon slaves, the three black leopard demon slaves immediately roared and charged at Kang Shin-mu.
Who asked Kang Shin-mu to attack them first?
Therefore, the three black leopard demon slaves directly attacked Kang Shin-mu. Three against one, they decided to finish off Kang Shin-mu as quickly as possible.
As for the other two black leopard demon slaves, they charged at Xiao Yuhua and the other three.
Seeing this, the four of them immediately got into a fighting stance. Ran Ran flew to the front. When the four of them fought together, Ran Ran was mainly responsible for defense. Of course, her Black Phoenix Heart Piercing Dragon martial technique was also very powerful, but in comparison, her defense was truly powerful.
After the Dark Dragon Filth Controlling Art broke through to the saint-grade, her defense directly increased by several times.
The energy of the Dark Dragon Filth Controlling Art covered the surface of her divine dragon body, forming a defensive barrier. The strength of the barrier even exceeded the heaven-grade Chaos Dragon Body.
It was no less than the increase in defense that Kang Shin-mu's Divine Dragon Tyrant Body Art gave him.
