Chapter 2283 Not Human
Among the Asuras of this world, there have always been terrifying legends about cultivators.
Tribes like the Giant Strength Tribe, who had encountered cultivators, didn't publicize their experiences much because they came from the outside world.
The royal family also suppressed this legend; however, Asuras are naturally simple-minded and usually don't care about such things.
The vast majority of Asuras do not believe that the rumors are necessarily true. After all these years, who has ever seen a living cultivator?
Since the start of the war with the Federation, many Asuras have even looked down on this legend.
The human world on the other side, although its weapons of war are relatively powerful, its physical bodies are simply too weak.
Could such a race evolve individuals with formidable combat power? They simply didn't believe it!
Even though a team of humans appeared more than a hundred years ago, seemingly with strong individual combat capabilities, they still relied mainly on warships.
This team inflicted heavy casualties on Asura and caused brief chaos in the Asura world.
But in the end, didn't it also disappear? So brief, like a shooting star streaking across the sky.
If there were truly a systematic cultivation method, similar to a combat style, would it have disappeared for so many years?
But at this moment, these Asuras believed that cultivators really existed in the vast universe, and that they were truly that terrifying!
The two mother hives vanished without a sound in an instant, and now so many humans are suspended in space.
Most importantly, they also know that the place they are defending is a rift leading to the void!
So it really is true... cultivators learned the location of this world and began a massive invasion!
As defenders, they not only have to resist the human invasion, but they also need to send such important news back in time!
However, the transmission couldn't be sent back. The forward nests, located millions of kilometers away, were destroyed in an instant!
The remaining Asuras are being besieged by traitors of their own kind, while the cultivators are just watching the show!
The warriors of Asura are never afraid of death, but when faced with such a battle, they become more and more desperate as the fight goes on!
It took Giant Hammer and the other Asuras more than an hour to finish the battle, with more than ten Asuras still surviving among their opponents.
However, most of the survivors were severely injured, and a few fell into a coma.
Fortunately, not all of them surrendered when they couldn't win; otherwise, it's hard to say how many prisoners they would have been able to keep.
Meanwhile, the giant hammers don't care about the other party's feelings. So what if they're seriously injured? As long as they're not dead, they'll be tortured!
In the ensuing interrogations, they wouldn't even treat the other person's wounds—any attempt to stop the bleeding was merely to extract more information.
Especially the Asuras with giant hammers, who know their race's weaknesses better than cultivators, show no mercy when they strike.
Several Asuras were beaten to death because they couldn't withstand the torture.
But that doesn't matter; just move on to the next one.
This cruelty and ruthlessness towards their own kind even made the onlookers, the cultivators, secretly think: "Truly barbaric!"
Although the Asura race is fearless, there are always cowardly individuals who, unable to withstand the pressure, reveal their secrets.
The response from the giant hammer and his men was: Now that you've given us the information, we won't torture you anymore. We'll give you a quick death!
Upon seeing this, a Golden Core cultivator couldn't help but sigh softly, "Fighting among one's own kind is truly more cruel than fighting against other races."
The specific details need not be elaborated upon further; within about half a day, Giant Hammer had compiled the relevant intelligence.
It hesitated, wondering who to give it to. Logically, it should be given to Boss Qu, but there were so many Immortal Venerables present!
It wasn't that it harbored any rebellious intentions, but rather that it was simply too afraid of the Immortal Venerable.
"Hmm?" Qu Jianlei frowned slightly, but didn't say anything. You freaking... don't you know your own limitations?
Giant Hammer jolted awake and obediently handed the intelligence to Boss Qu, inwardly cursing himself.
I'm going crazy. Do you think I, a filthy alien, am worthy to even approach those high and mighty immortals?
Qu Jianlei's team has never bothered with PUA (Pick-Up Artist) tactics against Asura prisoners, but they have developed a strong sense of self-deprecation.
When Han Li Zhenzun saw this scene, he was a little annoyed: These alien races are indeed barbaric, they don't know any manners at all.
However, the next moment, he saw Jin Ge and Min Ning not far from Qu Jianlei, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.
Is the factional division already this obvious?
Qu Jianlei quickly figured out what had happened over the past hundred years.
First, let's talk about the tiger-men guarding this place. Because they suffered heavy losses from Qu Jianlei's team, the Asura royal family decided to merge this fighting force.
The tiger-men were also violent in nature. While explaining that humans had rushed into the void, they also started fighting.
However, they only had one Grand Venerable left, and not many Nascent Soul level cultivators, so the fight was very difficult.
At the critical moment, another tiger-man suddenly appeared out of its body, unexpectedly repelling Asura and leading its kin to retreat to a rocky area.
They definitely couldn't hold onto the void rift, so they planned to fight to the death in the gravel belt!
As one of the 100 races of the primordial world, the tiger-men are incredibly powerful, but they can't withstand the fact that this is the Asura world!
Seeing that his side was no match for the enemy, the Tiger-Man Great Venerable threatened the enemy that reinforcements from his own kind would arrive sooner or later, while avoiding the main battlefield to deliver the final blow.
When a Nascent Soul Grandmaster abandons his identity and decides to wage guerrilla warfare, it will be a disaster for any hostile force.
After Ashura suffered several heavy losses, the royal family responded: it was all a misunderstanding, and we can talk things over.
To this day, the tiger-men are still trapped in the gravel belt, facing off against the Asura, with both sides engaging in alternating fighting and negotiations.
To be honest, the fighting wasn't particularly fierce, as both sides had their own concerns.
However, there is no doubt that the tiger-men cannot reclaim the location of the spatial rift.
They themselves knew that even if they could take it back, they would definitely not be able to hold it, so it was better to leave it in the scree area, where it would be easier to defend it.
Qu Jianlei was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this news. So, you guys had your own internal strife?
Han Li Zhenzun's focus, however, was, "Are there even stronger tiger-man tribes behind these tiger-men?"
"Does this matter?" Qu Jianlei glanced at him leisurely. "Back then, even the Houde Realm didn't care that Cangwu was invaded by the Tiger People!"
"What does this have to do with me!" True Venerable Hanli rolled his eyes at him. "Cangwu is the lower realm of Lingyun Sect, not the lower realm of Houde!"
"Is it interesting that you're telling me this?"
"I see," Qu Jianlei nodded slightly. "There's no need to worry about the tiger people. We're just here to scout ahead, right?"
“Alright,” True Venerable Hanli was sometimes really easy to talk to. “How is the situation with the Giant Strength Tribe?”
“It’s also terrible,” Qu Jianlei said, his face darkening. “They have already drawn a lot of their fighting force, and many of their clansmen have scattered and fled.”
"The plates they occupy have been mostly occupied by external races, and the situation is very bad."
This is the real big deal. The plate on which the Giant Strength Tribe resides is the very foundation of the tribe, and even that has been shaken.
Upon learning this news, the giant hammers and their companions went on to kill several Asura prisoners!
Han Li Zhenzun pondered for a moment before asking, "Doesn't the Giant Strength Division have those who can leave their body?"
If someone who has transcended their physical body can still be bullied like this, then he needs to reassess the danger level of this world.
Qu Jianlei's expression was a bit strange. "The patriarch of the Giant Strength Tribe has disappeared again. He must have left the plate."
"Again?" True Venerable Han Li glanced at him thoughtfully, but didn't ask any further questions. "Can't be contacted in the short term?"
“It should be quite difficult,” Qu Jianlei sighed helplessly. “I’m still hoping to get in touch with it and coordinate an attack from the inside.”
He was truly disappointed about this, as it was the most convenient way to eliminate the problem that he had planned long before he arrived.
Of course, the Juli tribe alone wouldn't be of much use. The problem is that the fortress was breached from within!
Qu Jianlei believed that since the Juli tribe had helped human cultivators guard a region, their thinking should not be too one-dimensional.
So, given the intelligence of the patriarch of the Giant Strength Division, it shouldn't be too difficult for him to secretly win over the two Asuras to leave their bodies, right?
It doesn't need to be an alliance; given the Juli tribe's awkward situation, that's unrealistic. As long as they can have a say in each other, that's fine.
However, when the building is about to collapse, if two ten-armed Asuras can recognize reality and decisively abandon darkness for light, then it will be a different story.
There's not even a need to take a specific side; staying neutral and standing by is fine. So... how about a complete rout?
In Qu Jianlei's plan, this method is the easiest and quickest way to conquer the Asura world.
That is why he always kept the giant hammer and other Asuras by his side, instead of showing them to others easily.
Everyone can imagine that cultivating a traitor, especially a traitor from another race, is extremely difficult.
But now, the patriarch of the Giant Strength Tribe has actually disappeared, which is quite frustrating.
But it doesn't matter anymore. It's basically certain that this world will be under the care of True Venerable Hanli, which will save him some trouble.
Han Li gave him a deep look. "There's nothing to regret. If anyone is not convinced, we'll beat them until they are."
“I can roughly guess what you’re thinking, but little one, I feel I have to remind you of something…”
"These alien races have always been fearful of power but not virtuous. Using certain methods too early is not good, because they are not human!"
Qu Jianlei felt a chill run down his spine upon hearing this. He raised his hand in a respectful gesture and said solemnly, "Thank you for your guidance, Your Excellency. I was rash before!"
At this moment, he was truly convinced. So what if there was no Giant Strength Division as an inside agent?
It's nothing more than a thorough attack. Now our team isn't just a handful of us, but backed by Houde Realm. Are we short of people?
At worst, they'd just exterminate all the Asuras, and then act as local governors... Would cultivators even care about that?
As for annihilating the Juli tribe as well, then so be it. Those who are not of our kind will surely have different intentions!
If the patriarch of the Giant Strength Tribe were truly sensible, he should have gone to great lengths to take the initiative to contact them.
If he takes the initiative to contact them, it would seem like he's asking for a favor, and even if he were to govern a region in the future, he might develop other intentions.
Since we have enough strength right now, let's fight first and see what happens. Let the other side shed their tears of regret!
